lives were sacrificed which might
have been saved. The helpless delay
in attempting the work OF rescue un-

the swift current to sweep many OF
the bodies downstream. Captain
Crane feared. Others were thought
to be entangled In the wreckage or

FISHCAMP'S
ENTERPRISE

Martin Harrais, the old resident OF
Cinema, has gone outside to bring in a
10-stamp quartz mill for installation at
that place. The mill will be shipped
via St. Michael and is expected on the
first boat. 1t is hoped to have it in
readiness for the treatment Of ore by
the first of August.
To the Fairbanks Citizen Mr.. Har-
rails, in speaking Of the enterprise, said:
'During this winter we have investi-
gated the quartz possibilities to the
best of our ability, and We not only
have faith, but are absolutely certain.
We know that the quartz is here, and
that the miner and prospector is will
ing to work this ground if he can be
sure of getting something for his labor.
Looking over the field we came to the
conclusion that it is good business to
start this customs mill. So we formed
a company and incorporated it under
the laws of Alaska. The people of
Cinema and the creeks subscribed a
sufficient amount of money to purchase
and build a l0-stamp mill. The quartz
miners and business people in Fair
banks interested in quartz subscribed
nearly one half Of the capital stock.
The miners will pay for their stock out
of the returns from their ore treated
ut the mill, a minimum OF 10 per cent.
being deducted from the gold obtained
at each crushing until the stock is paid
for, although larger payments than 10
per cent. would be accepted. This
money will not be used to reimburse
any one, nor to pay dividends, but will
be used as working capital for the en-
largement Of the plant. -. We al
lowed no promoters stock, nor cents
worth of stock sold below par. Those
who promoted the company and the
people who subscribed and paid the
money, and also the miners who sub
scribed for stock and agreed to send
their ore in payment for same under
stand that it is for their mutual benefit
and for the good of the entire COM
munity."
Among others interested in the ven-
ture are the Butler-Petree Tunnelsite
Company; the Charles Thompson Com
pany; Hirschberger, Bull & Co.; Mel
Jus, Nirich & Co.; Spaulding & Co.;
Rhodes g. Co.; Crawford; Jack Sale,
and Boyd & Courtney.

T0zIER WOULD PULL
IN THE WRONG TEAM

A few weeks ago, when Leroy Tozier
was in Tanana on profession al business,
it became known that he would like
to become territorial delegate.
Since that time good many things
have happened: John L. McGinn's
boom has died, it is believed through
the designs OF that wise gentleman
himself; and developments at Wash
ington have shown the Republican
leaders their sore need of a good, de.
pendable delegate-one who knows the
value of an appropriation in party
politics and is willing to take no
chances by running counter to tho ad-
ministration.
Mr.. Tozier wanting the Office and
the Republican machine needing the
man, why should he not receive the
nomination? The Fairbanks Times,
the Hot Springs Echo and probably
other papers are for him; and if he il
nominated there will be no cause for
any patriotic Alaskan working any
harder for his defeat than they would
for that of any other man put out by
the party.
Mr.. Tozier is suave and resourceful.
If the Republican party can get him
into the harness he will doubtless give
satisfaction at the wheel or in the lead.
But he won't be hitched onto our sled,
and consequently we will tie no rib
