ESKRIDGE ARRIVES
 FROM BEAR GREEK

R. s. Eskridge of the Eskridge Develop ment Company, who has been engaged in extensive prospecting work on Bear creek, in the kuskokWim country, arrived Tn the city on Monday last and left Tuesday over the Seward trail for the Outside.
 MT Eskridge's company owns extensive interests on Bear creek, and the past sea son has been spent with force of men and power drill in prospecting the ground with a view to installing a dredge. He states that they have proved some excellent ground, but the work done so far has not been extensive enough to warrant the com pany in going ahead with its plans. It will likely require another seasons prospecting before the extent of the deposits Is deter mined As to his plans for the future, he could make no positive statement. It was problematical whether the work would be continued next season or not.
 He had heard encouraging reports from the Canyon creek country, and stated that Joe Jean would probably be back in ldlta- rod from that section within a short time.
 MT. Eskridge reports that the schooner Bender Brothers, from Seattle, whose ar rival had been unaccountably delayed, ar rived at Bethel prior to the freeze-up, but not in time to relieve the shortage in cer- tain kinds of provisions on the upper kus kokwim as the river steamer had already been tied up for the winter.

 Caesar was arrested here last summer by Royal Northwest Mounted Police, fol lowing the recovery of his victims body, which was found in the river near White horse last June The body had been tied with weights and thrown into the river after the commission of the crime.
 During the trial Caesari did all of his talking through an Italian interpreter, on the pretense that he could not speak Eng fish. When sentence was pronounced, how ever, the convicted man burst nito a rage, declaring that he had no friends and that he was being raIroaded to his death.

WESTWARD MARCH OF SLAVIC
 RAGE THE DREAD OF EUROPE
By Walter Davis Professor Of History the College of Puget
 Sound in Tacoma News

Possibly on the sea, but probably not on land. As Anglo-Saxons and more partlcu larly as Teutons, let us hope that the crimp or check given the German will not extend farther than the improvement of his man. ners Let us look forward to the unity of all Teutonic peoples remembering that Ger many was the first home of that people, England the second, America the third.
 As Americans, out of gratitude, we may remember that the Germanic immigrants pouring into Ohio, Wisconsin and the North west from 1850 to 1860 decided the civil war in favor of the Union before the firing of a single gun. In that decade almost l,000,- GOO Germans became American citizens. Their coming told powerfully for national ity, for they were not attached to any particular state, but to the whole Union. They enlisted in the Union armies, fought with Sigel," and to them in no small de gree is due the outcome of that mighty conflict The people of this great republic will not be ungrateful.

 BEATS MASSACHUSETTS

Situated on the banks of the beautiful knik lake directly across from knik City, A. J. Pierce last April filed on homestead. He started in immediately clearing off the timber and getting down to actual farming. A run across to MT Pierces Crystal Springs ranch will convince the most skeptlcal that this section of Alaska certainly has a great future as an agricultural country. Pota toes. carrots, parsnips, peas and lettuce have thriyed on this ranch this year. From twenty pounds of seed MT. Pierce has al ready taken out of small patch more than eighteen crates of potatoes Three straw berry beds on this ranch also promise to turn out successfully. Next spring it is the intention of the owner of the Crystal Springs ranch to experiment with alfalfa
 MT. Pierce, who comes from Massachu- sets. says this Is the finest agricultural land he has ever seen. In his opinion five acres properly cultivated would make man in dependent - Seward Gateway.
