W00DCHOPPER
 WILL SOON BE
 THE B|C TOWN
TOFTY MERCHANT SAYS TOWN IS BEING MOVED DOWN
 SULLIVAN CREEK

That the coming of spring will see the town of Tofty practically transplanted from it's present loca- tion to a point on Sullivan creek at the mouth of Woodchopper creek is the statement of Dick Morris, ot the Tofty mercantile firm of Tow Ter & Morris, who arrived in Fair banks Thursday evening from the lower river. The reason for the move is obvious, as pay of a rich ness heretofore unknown in the Hot Springs camp has been dis covered on the Book ground, on Sul livan creek.
 A town has already started there, according to MT. Morris. There are three saloons already estaD lished and at least one mercantile house is open for business. Among the saloon men who have opened up in the new location is Mickey" Woods, of Panama.
 ro the new town have been moved down from Tofty Fowler X Morris them selves still have their establishment at Tofty, but are planning either to move or to build another store at W'oodchopper.
 Kelley & Anderson, the well known ,l of Tpf still have their place at the old town. They too, are thinking of establishing themselves at Wood chopper. However, their investment at Tofty is a great one, the i'm provementS made by them there hay ing cost in the neighborhood of S20,00O. It is they who have the Tofty postof1ice. but 1t is probable that it will be moved in the event that Kelley & Anderson decide to move their mercantile establishment and roadhouse.
 Pay is now known to have been discovered at the mouth of Wood chopper creek for distance of one half mile up and down Sullivan creek. It was found mostly by the use of Keystone drills, and consid- erable drilling is still going on in that vicinity. It is therefore prob able that a continuation of the pay streak will be located later on in the winter.
 The chief outfit at the mouth of Wocdchopper now i5 Howell Cleveland. They are working 125 men and are still sluicing. It ia probable that they will sluice through out the winter by using steam to keep the boxes thawed out sutfi- ciently. They get their water from lake in the neighborhood where their plant is located, using two pumps. The first pump brings the water from the lake and the sec ond hoists 1t Into tha boxes. They therefore have what practically amounts to an intending supply of water.
 Mr Morris confirms the report that teams are short in the Hot Springs camp. He made the trip to Fairbanks for the particular pur pose of purchasing a team of horses for the use of his mercantile estab lishment. He expects to remain here for several days yet, inspecting all available stock, and may not buy his team until several horses, which are expected in almost any days from the Outside, arrive.

Dandruff causes a feverish irrta- tion of the scalp, the hair roots shrink, loosen and then the hair comes out fast. To stop falling hair at once and rid the scalp of every particle of dandruff, get a 25-cent bottle of Danderine at any drug store, pour little in your hand and rub well into the scalp. After a few ap- plications all dandruff disappears and the hair stops coming out.

Every whirl ofthe dial swings
England into controversy
with the United States. She
has up to this hour denied every
shipping right bnt her own.
Just recently she is reported to
have taken an American ship and
held it for three days and run up
the Union Jack in the place of
the stares and stripes and then
automatically insists thatshe can
and will do just as she pleases.
The way to treat the insolence
that she has offered to date is not
with ultimatums and with threats
of armies, but with the defence of
embargo. This country should
put an embargo upon all bread
stuffs and munitions of war that
are now being shipped to Eng
land. England has done the
same thing with her Australian
wool. Not one pound of wheat
or any of the necessities of life
should be shipped to England un-
til a different disposition is shown.
She has not treated this country
right at all, not one hour during
the present war, or for that mat
ter one day since 1776. Tins
country has nothing but kindly
and friendly feeling, and is
willing to take the worst of it,
but when it is rubbed" in every
day it soon gets to be Chest
NUT. England is the greatest
nation in the world for statesmen
and when it comes to diplomacy
can "out-niger" this country or
any other country. All the peo-
pie of this country want is de-
cent and fair recognition of it's
shipping rights, and if England
insists in taking ever advantage
as she is reported to be doing I'M
the daily reports, then she should
be cut off from every American
article by means of the friendly
embargo. mother word we will. |
