He dropped o8 at Skagway on his way out daring the past winter and as so9n as CRe suo" was off he again took up the search for the ledge from which his float had been broken. This last week he was successful in finding it after hunting from last March and only today re- corded his claims. The ledge has been traced for more than mile and is phe- nomenally rich showing free gold, in abundance.

Canada Wants Pan-Handle

Making most strenuous appeal to the United States government to offer to exchange the Alaskan "panhandle' for some portion of the British empire of equal value, MT. Robert Stein, at the recent National Peace Congress at Baltimore, said-
 The United States is universally re- garded as the natural leader in the peace movement, and it must net sbirk the responsibilities of leadership. 1t is duty to set the example.in mutual con- sessions. There is the panhandle" ot Alaska-a mere ribbon, 536 miles long and from eight to thirty-five miles wide which is shutting off the northern half of British Columbia and the entire Yu- kon Territory from free access to the Pacific.
 The territory has sn area of 600,00S square miles. It has the same climate as Europe in the same latitude. aud that part of Europe contains 25,0e0O0Q inhabitants.
 This Canadian country has immense resources in tim Der, agricultural and mineral lands. It's wealth will Reces- sarily be concentrated in it's ports-oR American territory. This entire slope is drenched with rain and possesses wsterpGwer. The factories to be driveE by that power will necessarily be iE American territory; but the reservoirs supplying that power will be en Can adian ground. The 25,G00,000 Canadians who wiIl eventually live behind this panhandle will constantly be forced te contribute to the enrichment of half g dozen American cities, while these cities will not contEi bute ceut toward Canadian taxes. What permanent and growing source of irritationl
 The only gentlemanly course, the only manly course open to IFS is to say to the Canadians: we are willing to let you have this coast strip; what wiB you give ps fer it? And if 1 had time 1 could show you that in exchange for it we could very likely get something far more useful to us tban this absurd panhandle, while the panhandle itself in Canadian hands, would be more use- ful te IS than it now is.
 Reverse the situation and see how we should like it. Imagine that our north western states were cut of from ths Atlantic by similar panhandle, Can. adian sidewalk running from eastern Maine down nearly to Philadelphia; that all the great cities ou that sea board, Boston, Providence, Newport New York, Jersey City, were Canadian cities, deriving their wealth from the American country behind them, yet contributing not cent toward Ameui can taxes; that not pound of freight could be sent from Pittsburg or BuffalE to New York or Boston fer export, eZ- cept in bondI We should long ago have found the situation unendurable.-- Prince Rupert Empire.

A No. 24 FairDanks Morse auto car for the Alaska Northern Railway com pany reached Seward on the freighteT Latouche this morning, says the Gate. way. 9he car will afford comfortable riding accommodations for thirty Eve persons, with an apartment for light baggage and express matter. In size, it is about the same as the ordinary street car, in use in the larger cities. The style is much the same. The cost, in the factory, was SlG,oO0. The new car will be a decided improvement over the small car now in use, which, while an easy riding vehicle, is wholly inad- equate to the demands of the travelling public, as it's capacity is almost daily overtaxed.
 Says the Fairbanks Citizen: Al though the amalgam from the cleanup of the stamps of the Cinema mill had not been retorted at the time of going 10 press the indications are that at least LOCO ounces of gold, or Sl6,OO0, will be the return from the % tons of ore from the Rhoads & Hall claim on Bedrock creek This estimate may be found to be too conservative, as there will be at least 1900 ounces of anal gan. and, judging by past experiments this, after being retorted, should give much greater percentage of gold than 1000 ounces. But even if no more than S16,OO0 is the result of thecleanup, this will mean that the ore has gone nearly Sl7O to the ton, a most remarkable showing.

Lyons, Clerk Lakin, Deputy Marshal Goshow, Assistant District Attorney J.

The court will sit at Unalas- ka July F, Dillingham; and Nushagak July 26, Unga August q and kokiak August 28.
 Cur former townsman Charley Nc. Kay, who is now located in Vald ez, has made wager that he can make the trip from the latter place to Fairbanks on motor cycle in so hours, says the Cordova Alaskan. The machine arrived on the last trip of the Sampson. 1t is a two-cylinder, eight horse power Thor motorcycle. As the motorcycle weighs 250 pounds it is suggested that in case that bridge is washed out the time thus lost should be deducted from the actual time on the trail-the condition of the trail and accidents to the ma chine to haye no effect on the results. Whether a motorcycle can make the contemplated run between the hours specified is causing considerable spec ulation among sporting men generally, opinions being equally divided as to the possibility of the task when taking the conditions of the trail at the time af the wear the rane is to be made.
