An important mining deal to Valdez, and especially the stock holders of the hydraulic company controlling the placer ground on Gold creek, has been consummat- ed and placed on record, by which MT. Joseph A. Baxter, a we'll known Alaska mining man, is in control of the premises under a fve-year and eight months lease, on 25 per cent, royalty basis.
 Mn Baxter immediately took possession of the property and now has a small force of men cutting a road from theb each to the property in order that the pipe, lumber and machinery, with which to operate the ground, may be hauled to it's destination. The order for the piping, giants and lumber was placed some time past, the prst shipment is coming on the Sampson, which left Seat tic on Saturday, to be followed by a second shipment on the Mari posa.
 The present piping on the ground will only be used as odds and ends, not being of sufficient dimensions for the plant to be in- stalled or of heavy enough gauge to withstand the water pressure to be used. It is the purpose of MT. Baxter to take the water at the highest point on the ground, at considerably over 200 feet cle-

Oyster Bay. July 9.-Thc state mentS issued by Chairman Ifillics and followed by that of President Taft has created a great deal of interest here, and il is generally expected that Roosevelt will come back with a hot reply, specifically going into a number of the decis- ions of the National Committee in states like Washington, where the standpat delegations were stolen bodily and were permitted to vote on their own cases, thus furnish ing the administration the neccs- sary bare majority to control the convention. Col. Roosevelt says the more the Taft forces will ga iI:tn the subject of the seating of contested delegates the better it will suit him, as finally the peo- De will learn enough of the out rage to become convinced that the Progressive wing of the party were defrauded of control of the convention.

Tremendous excitement has been aroused at Iditarod by receipt of reports from the new Aniak district, in the Kuskokwim cOun- try, indicating the discovery of an enormously rich placer gold de- posit.
 A stampede has begun and hundreds of miners and prospect ors of this camp are joining inc rush.
 J. M. Pickle, who brought the news to 1ditarod, declares that Marvel creek has shown a depOs- it of pay that more than justifles it's name, and that like indications are being found on nearby streams. Pickle says that the op- orators on Marvel already have exposed total length of 0,O00 feet of pay which will range more than 100 feet in width.
 This pay is claimed to run from St to S2.50 square foot, which is richer than most of the best ground in the famously rich Fair banks region, when 1t is taken in to consideration that the great est depth to bedrock is seven feet.
 First discoveries of placer in this diotrict were made last fall by Harry Buhro and two partners named Labree and Fisher. A small excitement resulted and most of the promising ground was siaked. Prospecting proved difficult in tho wet, shallow gravels. and on this account the real worth of the
