 Good, Bui

Billy Newman has received a letter from Ruby creek, which, while not particularly promising as to the present outlook, leads one to believe that a camp will be developed in that section within the next twelve months, In part the letter says;
 Il have just got back to town after being out in the hills three weeks l nm pretty well staked in on the pay creek, besides other creeks. l also have a Front street lot, and if the camp turns out all right l may be in the pay. have a tent and cache on my lot and will start on cabin within d few days Then I shall be footloose 10 monkey around in the hills. The boys on Discovery, Long creek, so far have got $l.50 the square foot, 100 feet wide and up about 1909 feet. .. But right now it is pretty soon to know where the pay runs and how many creeks have the pay, as there has been very little prospecting done on the other creeks. You could drop the Fairbanks camp into this and have another one left. It will be pretty slow prospecting this summer, as the packers charge 35c a pound to the creeks.
 "Besides Long creek there are Birch Flint, Basin, Last Chance, Wolf, Bonanza, Beaver, Dome, Fox, Spruce and bunch of other creeks. The for nation is schist, quartz, some lime stone and granite and slate.
 ''I figure on prospecting next fall and winter, and by next spring there may be something doing. There are about 400 men around here at present.
 "The boys on Discovery will be in shape to ground sluice in from six weeks to two months. and then we shall know some more."

They Hike Where
 The Gold Lures

From a copy of the Porcupine Press received here news notes have been gleaned concerning old-timers of the North and of Nevada who have Hooked to the new Ontario strike, which bids fair to become one of the great gold fields of the world
 Among others mentioned was Tracey Hope, well known in the Klondike He visited Porcupine this spring, and went to Vancouver, the inference being that he went after money to in- vest in Porcupine mines.
 ' Diamondfeld" Jack Davis and Ed. Mead, both well-known Nevadans, were among the frst-comers in the Porcu- pine country, looking for a chance to get their hands on something good.
 A. D. Williams who had ono of the most important concessions in the Yukon when the Klondike was boom ing, is also a Porcupine fan. He hiked back to Kansas city for a certi- fled check and some clean collars. having decided to remain in the On tario camp.
 "Foghorn" Neil Mcdonald, once of Nome, is now in the Porcupine. Alfred z. Minter, C. w. Geddes, Tom Grady, Jerry Calvin and other old time miners of the North and the Southwest, are down there looking for chance to trade mule for good mine.

SEEMS so SIMPLE

Speaking of fires and ireightng, did it to you that it would be good business to stop building fire traps ill towns where fire protection is inadequate Or for that matter wouldn't be just simply too cute for any thing to cut out this monumental asnny and quit building fire traps altogether?
 In every town in Alaska where our festive feet have fared we have the thing going in the same way and with the results, namely We have seen the city dads gravey gathered round meitatg with sive mien, and wondering how much they hook the city for to put into the fire department At the same time we have ambitious carpenters swaming over the nices of frame buildings put close together without fire wals while the balloonceiling man merriy weds his little hammer on the inside.
 Some people might call this anachronism, contre temps ludcrous contradiction foderol but being unable to think of the polite word will call just what it is,-plain dam foolishness.
 As say this situation has obtained every city size in Alaska where they have progressed beyond the log cabin and it always has the result Sooner or later that camp is visited by disastrous fire that nearly wipes it off the map and puts many of it's estmabe citizens the bum.
 The total folly of allowing balloon ceiling in a town like this struck forcb has since that last fire that wiped out whole block of this perfectly good city. Not only that but directly under it they place gasoline lamp, admittedly the most deyish and dangerous of all forms of sport With these two lovely dangers within reach of each other requires whatever to start fire,-Wly a child could do it.
 This condition exists in nearly every house in the middle of the city, the business portion thereof Gaso line lighting the prevailing method of luminaon and every night the ates tempted and only Good Fortune sits the lid Twice this year and within three months of each other she has gone to sleep and fallen off, where fore the city is out two blocks.
 It is almost idle to talk of good fire fighting apparatus when such conditions allowed to exist Once balloon ceiling gets going the building practically doomed and in such hurry and with so much heat it is practically i'm possible to keep from spreading to adjoining houses But aside from putting the most dangerous contrvance into house take precaution against fire in neighbours house. We just put up board wal plenty of tar paper the roof and then sit down and wait for tue fun to start.
 Every balloon ceiling in this town should be covered with asbestos paper at least every outside wall should be covered with iron. An agOnzed vail would go up if the council tried to enforce such ordinance for the buildings standing, but without some such precauton might we'll dump fire apparatus in the river.

Looks Bad for the
 Slayer Of Sellers

Additional facts concerning the kill ing of Fred Sellers the Baker Kid by Borisa Rokoceviche, which occurred at Fairbanks in the card room of the Imperial cigar store, show that the Slav tried to cheat at the game of poker they were playing and, when called, became angry and started the fight. The men fought with fists across the table, when third player got between them. This gave Rokoce- viche time to pull gun and fire four bullets into Sellers, who had taken refuge behind the door. The others ran out of the room.

Close Gall For

Discovery Otter had close call from fire last Saturday which is much more pleasant to contemplate in retrospect than it was at the time A forest fire urged under 8 high wind encroached upon the borders of the town so closely as to burn backyard fences in places, and it was only stopped after general light on the part of the whole popula- ton. At one time the danger seem ed so imminent that many householders began to wrap up their household gods and prepared to beat it while their shoes were still good.

in this period there can be expected no
such large work Of railway building and
a general Inauguration of new enter
prises. as went on in the years imme-
diately preceding 1906 and 1907
They point out that the great construc-
tion operations of the Pennsylvania Rail-
road Company in and around this city
are completed, that those OF the New
York Central will soon be over. and that
the chapter of similar great work in
other quarters has been closed. 1t may
very well be that operations of this sort
may not be paralleled for some time to
come. and il the history of our country
has proved anything 1t has proved that
the continual new birth of enterprise In
the land outruns all previous anticipa-
tions Of its size and character.
More Roads Needed.
We are told that railway building is
over; but how about the new tracking
that must before long be laid upon all
the railway lines in the South. with con-
seQuent erection of terminals and in
creasing Of general facilities there? And
how long time further can the Union
Pacific Railroad Company handle its busi-
ness on a single line Of rail over the
greater portion of its territory? Already
the management OF the Union Pacific Is
finding 1t difficult to move its long trains
of freight oyer a single line and adhere
to established time schedules. and II
prophecy is what is desired at present
there is one that may be offered with .
good deal of confidence, that before many
months are passed something will be
heard of a Union Pacific scheme Of double
tracking. Meanwhile. it is to be noted
that the country's foreign trade Is i'm
proving. that the tax paying people are
coming to a decided realization Of the ex-
pensiveness of the government by COM
missions craze. and that the deficiency in
the fall Of moisture over the country
which many observers in recent months
have thought to be the most serious ad-
verse factor in the whole financial and
business situation has been largly re-
paired by a general and heavy fall Of
rain.
As regards the local development Of the
suspension OF the Carnegie Trust Com
