Indications point to rush of many
men this summer to all parts of Alas
ka, who will have money to invest
here, providing that the prospects and
prospectors we have here warrant it.
Now the prospector or claim owner
wants to get busy and develop their
claims as much as possible, and
thereby receive a higher price for
them. Money begets money, and so
when one group of claims are sold
other investors come in and buy, too.
The demand for mines is ever on the
increase and the people who are buy
ing are looking for properties thar
have a good deal of development
work done on them. These investors
are always willing to pay more for a
fairly developed property than for an
undeveloped one, no matter how
good the showing may be.

THE LARGEST NUGGET.

Various reports of the finding of
large nuggets of gold have always
come from the big placer camps all
over the world. Alaska has produced
some large nuggets, but the home OF
the largest nuggets seems to be Aus
tralia. The following list of some OF
the largest nuggets ever found may
interest some of our readers. In
1851. a sheepherder in the state of
New South Wales, Australia, found
a nugget weighing 100 pounds. He
sold it for $1,000. This nugget caus-
ed a worldwide sensation at the
time. as it was some of the first gold
found in Australia. The mining
camp of Ballarat, Australia, one of,
II not the greatest placer camp in
the world. was the home OF some OF
the largest nuggets ever found. In
that camp was found the Sarah
Sands" nugget. worth $4,000. the
welcome" nugget worth $4,000.
Again in the camp of Hangover. Aus
tralia. a nugget worth $4,000 was
found and called the blanche Bark
lev. But the king pin of all nuggets,
the "Water Moon" was found in
Australia in 1852 and was sold Tor

nugget ever found in the world. Mex

not known whether Oliver waited to
bury his pal or cached his nugget
first. OF the big nuggets found in
Alaska we have not been able to
get hold of any data, but in Siberia
the largest nugget ever found weigh
ed SO pounds, four ounces, and that
went, of course, into the hands of
the government.

AN ALASKAN AUTHOR.

We are in receipt of copy of the
"Athabascan Princess" by George
Fenwick, published by the Alice Har-
riman Company, Seattle and New
York The scene of the story is laid
in Alaska and the principal charac-
tiers being a prospector and Siwash
maiden of many charms, who Mr..
Fenwick kindly calls princess. The
author has taken full poetic license
when he turns one of the Kuskokwin.
Indians into beautiful princess The
book is written in verse; some Of it
is good, but there are other parts
very lame and hating. In one way,
the book appears to us as though it
had not been carefully read and cor
rected. as there are number of poet
ical errors that should have been
corrected The book, however, is
well worth reading, especially by
Alaskans, who have many long win
ter nights to put in and who have
plenty of time in which to let their
thoughts run riot. The book is IL
Illustrated and the picture of some
actress as she looks to us, dressed
as an Indian and called the Athabas-
can Princess, is worth the money
alone, but as far as the other illus
trations are concerned we cannot
commend them. In one picture
where it shows number of dog
teams on the trail, the sleighs have
no handle bars or gee" poles an6
the dog harness depictured. A child
in Alaska would know better than
to hitch up a dog team that way
1t is a pity the illustrations in sc
tastefully published book should be
so untrue to the real conditions that
exist in the country where the scene
of the book is laid. Some illustra-
tors never go by what thing should
really look like, they only go by what
they think it should look like. One
finds this same mistake again and
again in books, and it seems pity
that the publishers do not employ
some one familiar with the customs
of the country to go over the illus
trations and pass on them before they
go before the public. The Alice Har-
riman Company are to be commend
ed on their enterprise in giving Sc
attic a publishing company, and We
wish them every kind of success In
their future undertakings.

Coal Outlook
Discouraging

All Alaskans in Seattle were very
much encouraged last week upon the
return of Attorney Maurice D. Leeney
from Washington, over his expressed
opinion of the coal situation.
Just prior to his leaving the capt.
toll Mr.. Leehey had an interview with
the executive at the White House
And he came from that conference
convinced that the President had re-
solved to drop all of the administra-
tons agitation for conserving the
vast deposits, and for alternate pro-
posals to lease the fields on a royalty
basis.
Though the President made no
definite promise OF any kind said
Mr.. Leehey, 'he plainly intimated
that he would bring about the open
ing of the fields. In his exact words
he assured me that he would give
the question his personal considera-
ton Immediately after his return
from visit to the South He went
South to address the great CONNER
cial congress, and is winding up the
visit with rest and golf in Augusta.
My interview gave me the impress
sion that the executive still thinks
that there are still great Number
of people who favor the Pinchot idea
of conserve ton, but that he himself
does not believe in any radical stand
on the question.
His language was enigmattcal, ty-
pical of Taft.
However, all Washington is argu-
ing that there is nothing left for the
President but to open the fields. No
legislation regarding them will be
taken up at the special session; that
much is certain This would mean
that the controversy could not come
up for congressional consideration
| again under the present administra-
ton, as the next Congress will not
be held until after a presidential elec-
ton.
THE task is made easy for the
| President by the change in his cab
met due to Secretary Ballinger's re-
tirement. Secretary Walter L. Fisher
present head of the Interior Depart
ment, can pass upon these contested
claims without raising a storm Of
protest from those lined up in the
old controversy. and doubtless he will
act just as soon as the President lets
him know such a course is desirable. -
Mr.. Leehey was called to Wash
| ington in connection with the appeal
of one of his cases to the supreme
court. He succeeded in winning this
md as he obtained some most encour-
aging assurances from the President
regarding the coal matter in which
he is so deeply interested, he is en-
tirely satisfied with the results of his
trip.

News from Copenhagen may re-
open the whole of the North Pole
controversy, as Knud Rasmussen, the
Danish inspector of Greenland,
claims that no explorer or Eskimo
has been within 100 miles of the
North Pole. Now if there is any
truth in this the next man who
claims he found the North Pole
should be hung to it, to satisfy the
public, who have been buncoed long

TO MY LADY OF FEATHERS.

From my nook in the quiet window
watch all the hats on the street;
Each one shelter for lady fair
Let us say from sunshine or heat
Trim, dainty and neat
From eyebrows TO feet,
Be she maid or matron sweet.
Each hat is marvel of beauty.
An artistic cluster of gems.
OF dainty flowers. and of tiny birds
Tucked in deftly between the stems.
With each outspread breast,
And each tufted crest,
Not outfiashed by diadems.
Bright colored sun birds from Eastern
isles;
Plumes from the egret, snowy white;
Dazzling gorgets from wild Brazil:
Blazing jewels in sunshine bright.
With the opafs sheen.
Blue, scarlet and green.
At each turn to left or right.
Did you ever think of the slaughter
OF the hundreds, nay. millions slain?
Their bodies left to be vultures' prey,
In the forest or woodland plain.
While their babies cry
AS they starve and die
For the sake of pride and gain?
You cannot plead, like your sable furs
That they shelter you from the cold
Are there not ribbons of satin sheen
And beautiful flowers untold
To entrance the sight
OF each luckless knight,
Who covets your wealth of gold?
Now suppose, my ady of Feathers,
We should put you out of the way
Where you never could see your babies,
Or cherish them day after day:
No one to love them,
No one to feed them,
Or laugh with them while they play
You would call us incarnate monsters,
And every word would be true;
But did you ever reflect that they
Might have babies the same as you,
With tiny nest
And a mothers breast
And a mothers love like you?
Oh, the good Lore never intended,
When he made you divinely fair.
That you would need to adorn yourself
With his winged treasures of air
So let mercy plead
For the hearts that bleed
In the wide world everywhere,
