A1aska's New Camp

After rumors and counter rumors concerning the richness of the Iditarod camp, in the interior of Alaska, there comes now reliable information to the effect that new strike has been made on Flat creek, where pay dirt extends along the creek for five miles, the dirt running from S2 to 8 to the foot. Five cent pans are common. The bedrock is found beneath gravel from eight to twelve feet thick, and the gravel is GOV cred by foot of loose soil.
 This new strike is confirmatory of the first stories which came from the new district, on the strength of which the uew stampede was started to it. The stories then told were to the effect that the diggings were shallow, that the bed rock was nowhere at any great depth, end that pay was found within very short distance of the surface and ran fairly high. On this showing and on the strength of the new strikes made, it may Oe Sdlu ldttly LhdI Cuc LulIdt Ou iS poor mans camp. No large capital is needed Go develop any properties lying like this, and next season there should be good cleanup, considering the newness of the camp.
 Each new discovery like the Iditarod. be it great or small, extraordinarily rich or just paying good wages, con- firms the oft repeated statement that the placer possibilities Of interior Alas ka are not likely to be exhausted with in the lifetime of any man now living, Gold in paying quantities has been dis covered in many places, each remote from the other, and covering such vast extent of territory, and yet the unprospected country is SO vast, as compared with that which has seen some shadow of development, that new and rich camps may be expected to be opened season after season.-P.-l.

This is the time of the year, says the Dawson News, when somewhere in the vast empire of the Yukon or the regions flauking it, anywhere from AtIin to Care Barrow or from Valdez to Her schel island comes news of a few men losing their lives while mushing. Those who meet such reverses usuaily do so from taking foolish risks, such as going out improperly equipped or hitting the trail alone when not acquainted with the methods of trail travel. The per centage of those lost on such trips is very small, but when there is fatality, the man who meets the reverse is mourned by the meu of the. Arctic, for the reason it is known that the man ventured out in the Arctic cold strug- glng to open mp the country against great odds.

A Dawson News special from Circle City to the Post-Intelligencer says Frank White, formerly of Dawson, shot and killed Mrs. Stade, and then shot himself. Both died instantly. Mrs. Stade is the wife of H. A. Stade, pro- prietor of the Jumpof roadhouse, p miles from Circle City. They separated last fall and she came to town and bought laundry. White frequently called on her. The cause of the tragedy is unknown. The man was sober at the time. Mrs. Stade went to Marshal's cabin for protection. She said White threatened 10 kill her and himself While alone in Marshal's cabin, White came in and shot her, one bullet going through the left ear and one through the right lung. He then blew out bis owu brains.

THE OMAHA LAND SHOW

When at the Republican office OF
tt esday, w. o. Paisley of Omaha
said The people from the middle
west are much like those from one
OF our states--'they want to be
shown. If you will make a display
OF what this section raised at the
Western Land-Products Exhibit at
Omaha next January you will find
some people from there at Blackfoot
who at present are looking for new
home but have not decided where to
go. The Land Show plan is to show
these people the whole west under
one roof and Blackfoot should be in
on it..
The Omaha Land Show is different
from any other in that it is for the
west only and Mr.. Rosewater has re-
fused to take exhibits from sections
which are not in harmony with the
plan of developing this section.
All should boost Blackfoot. Our
real estate men and business men
have boosted hard and contributed
for exhibits and space and advertis-
ing. Would it not be we'll for our
farmers and fruit growers and land
owners to help boost by ontributing
grains and fruits and vegetables to
show the people at other places what
can be raised here? 1t will help to
Increase the value of every acre of
land to get more people here and
everyone should contribute to it,

degenerating into sot. and can al

COMMUNICATED
some HOT SHOT FIRED
AT POT OF "HARMONY. -
Voter Shells New Ticket in
the Field.

Mr. Editor: All the able4bodied vot-
rs Of Americas have been addressed
tie past week by three we'll known
Citizens, candidates for the honors
of aldermen. Their communication
came in the form of printed folder,
so smoothly written that it seems al
most-perhaps not quite-too smooth
to be true.
1t is the work of an artist-so much
of an artist that one wonders how he
could soil his digits by mixing in
modern politics. However, we are told
that ''Wheer there's VIII there's a
way
The gentlemen state that they are
not in any way affiliated with the
Dodson interest" but don't you know,
brother voter, rose will smell the
same by any other name. No interest
in tie city election other than love
for Americas. Indeed! Why not vol
unteer their services to guide the ship
of state? Why wait until they are
drafted to quell riots in THE city coun-
Gil, to preserve peace and establish
HARMONY?
Pleasant word that, harmony. How
easily it rolls off the tongue, and what
an array of peculiarities have been
covered by its flowing mantle. All
tie political piracy accomplished by
the republican party during the last
| forty years has been under the shelter
of much-abused harmony"
Not allied to any faction? Can there
be more than two issues in the pres
ent campaign? The Citizens ticket re-
presents one issue, and are not these
gentlemen running in opposition 10
that issue
Is it possible that they don't know
it? Is it further possible that they
suppose the thinking voter don't know
it? 1t is passing strange that. with
the past two years record in plain
view it should require a half day of
close communion to convince one that
he is needed to save the city from the
terrors of bankruptcy? But perhaps
the gentlemen discovered a cry for
help in the merchant of the 'rMer-
chant" and have come to his relief.
Harmony, to be sure. There will be
harmony and progress when tits
question of light franchise is settled,
but there is a maxim as old as the
eternal red soil of Georgia that moth
ing is settled until it's settled right"
And the fact, supported by their atti-
tude the past two years, is just as
apparent that tie candidates of the
Citizens ticket, mayor and all, will
