excited over the possibilities of the re- ported strike in the Chisana country.
 Sourdoughs from all parts of the country are gathering in this city, where, with their ears too the ground, they are awaiting reliable information which will determine them as to their future course of action.
 There have been so many fake stampedes in the Northern country that any man who has passed mach time in Alaska views every reported strike with suspicion. The latest stam- pede, known as the Skooku um Jim stam- pede, which was responsible for many miners spending good money on a wild goose chase, is still fresh in the minds of many who are now thinking of mush- ing into the new Chisana strike.
 There IS one peculiarly, however, which is in the makeup of every pros pector, and that is-he wants to be in on every rush to the new fields for fear that the one he misses will turn out to be the exception and develop into a rich camp.

Every available steamboat in Fair banks was loaded to the guards on the first trip down-and on the trip back.
 The camp was disappointment, although it later developed into good small camp, but nothing like the glow ing reports first received would lead one to believe.
 It is such stampedes as that which has bred suspicion into the bones of every sourdough, yet for fear that he will miss the good one when it does come, the real sourdough is forever tramping through the tundra and climbing the hills of Alaska, following will-o'-the- wisps, starting on the faint est rumor and returning, nine times out of ten a sorrer but none the wiser man

Thought Paystreak Sure

During the preceding winter a small group of men were prospecting on the creeks of the Upper Innoko. Late in the spring, just before the breakup, three different outfits working on diff ferent parts of Ophir creek, reached bedrock at the same time. In each of the three lo,es were found gold in great quantities. The fact that all three holes carried good pay was in the eyes of the miners conclusive proof that a continuous paystreah of great richness extended the entire length of the creek.
 The last mail of the season to go over the ice was to leave in few days, The miners who had made the strike immediately wrote to their friends and partners in Fairbanks and Nome telling them to lose 20 time, but to drop every thing and come to the new diggings.
 The mail carrying the glad tidings departed on its long journey over the ice and the ''lucky" miners returned to their work. The next two days brought disillusionment. By the same freak of chance which had led the three miners to land on the rich spots at the same time, all three drifted out of pay the same day.
 It was too late to notify their friends that they were mistaken in their esti- mates of the camp, as the.last mail had had cone and the trail was fast break

WApA IS HIS OWN PRESS AGENT

Jurio Wada, known through Alaska as d champion ''musher" and as the discoverer of Fairbanks and many other rich gold camps, tells an inter- i tSting experience he had while calling on the Guggenheims, the multi-million- are mining promoters in their New 1 !. A.Ork office a few weeks ago. Wada visited them to tell them of a rich claim he had in Alaska, hoping to make q sale of the property. After a ! long wait one morning he was ushereG into the office of one of the Guggen- helms. but as it was lunch time. food was suggested, and Wada was told to wait awhile.
 A few minutes later an office boy came out to Mr. Wada and said:
 Mr. Guggenheim says you may have an egg or ham sandwich"
 "WhaI" exclaimed Wada, "I can have an egg or ham sandwi ich. Not much I can; didn't come ait the way from Alaska to New York to live on sandwiches 'l'll take a good square meal or no;hng."
 Mr. Wada explained that j1st across the street from the Broadway of1c, s of the GusgenheIms is one of the best restaurants in the world,
 And they drink bear water, what ever that is, the Guggenheims do, ' said AIr. TVada.
 Despite his offer of q ham sandwich, which was not accepted, Mr. Wada did interest the Guggenheims. and survey ors and mine experts are now on their way to Alaska to look at his property. Tacoma Tribune, July %.

commissioner points to the fact that
there is a distinguishing characteristic
OF standing timber, as contrasted with
such mineral resources as iron ore, coal
and petroleum. in that no labor is re-
quired to discover it.
Discussing means of increasing the
governments ownership of timber
lands. Mr.. Conant suggests, If pend
ing forfeiture suits are successful, a
searching investigation to determine
whether there has been such non full
tillment of the various conditions at
tached to tho Northern Pacific and
other grants as would give congress
Just and legal cause to seek further
forfeitures.
It is clear, concludes the report, that
there has been lavish dissipation of
standing timber and other natural re-
sources of the national domain and
that the benefciaries of this policy
too frequently have been not actual
settlers. but capitalists who have been
able to take advantage of legislation
or its faulty administration, and thus
accumulate vast holdings of timber
land at a comparative small cost and
reap therefrom an enormous profit.
Subsequent parts of the lumber in
vestigation to be submitted by the bu
reau of corporations will treat of con-
centration of ownership in particular
areas, and costs, prices and competi-
tive conditions.
