MORE MEN GET CLAIMS
BY new ALASKA Law
HOW PERSISTENT PROSPECTING
FINALLY OPENED A NEW
CAMP.

FAIRBANKS. Alaska, April a.
The stampede to Twenty-Mile creek
in the Salchaket country. 40 miles
southeast of here, has ended. More
men have obtained ground on the
stream than would have been possible
a year ago. and greater number OF
claims were staked. None of the
claims located after the discovery OF
Pearson and Enstrom on the Gold
Bug association some two weeks ago
have been more than 40 acres In ex-
tent. This has been due to the oper-
alton of the Wickersham mining bill.
which reduced the size of association
claims and restricted the number a
person could stake. The Twenty lie
stampede was the first instance In the
Fairbanks district that it's operation
was bzrought to the attention of the
public
One Man Stays.
Twenty Mile creek is tributary to
limit, about 20 miles from the Tan
ana. The creek was prospected four
or FIVE years ago by several prospect
ors but they gave up tho work when
news came of other strikes and dis
coveries. One man remained That
man was Oscar Pearson, a Scapdl-
navian prospector of the type that has
made many Alaska fortunes possible.
He left his wage earning on develop
ed creeks for few months each year
and put down prospect shaft on his
Twenty Mile holdings as assessment
work.
For four or five years Pearson has
done this. Last fall he secured the aid
of l.. Enstrom, another mining man
of the district, and the respecting
started in earnest. In one hole pros
poets were found In the next one
more colors remained in the pans af-
ter the gravel layer Immediately above
bedrock was PANIED. Closer to the
creek the men started to sink and the
creak of the windass was steady un-
. til bedrock was reached.
News Leaked Out.
When the news of the discover,
leaked out, there was some hustling
among the dog mushers and their mi
ming men friends. for day or two.
Several teams started out over the
winter trail to the Salchaket and re-
cent arrivals report that snowshoe
tracks can be seen crisis crossing the
creek above and below the prospect
ors' holes.
How Old Law Worked.
In previous years, when a discovery
of any moment was made. one man
could stake the entire creek If he was
able to walk to square his different
initial posts and did not develop writ
ers' cramp The associations were
limited to 100 acres of ground, and
the stalker had only to have verbal
power Of attorney or none at all to
place what names he liked on the To-
cation notice below his own.
The new law makes 1t necessary for
the stalker to have the power Of attor-
ney of the person for whom he stakes
on record before the location is legal.
No association can be larger than 40
acres and one man can stake or have
staked but two claims during any one
calendar month.
