is continually marching. pouring fresh
gold into the lap of old Mother Earth.
l am speaking of the Treadwell
mines which lie here on Douglas Is
land in southern Alaska, about as far
north of the United States boundary
as the distance from New York to Chi
cago. Within rifle shot of where
my typewriter stands there are four
great mining properties that have
already yielded eight times as much
gold as the amount Uncle Sam paid for
the territory. Their total production
up to January /, 1915, was 24.000,000
tons of ore from which was taken more
than s5S,000.000 in gold, or s2.42 for
each ton of ore that went through
the mills. Last year these mines pro-
duced more than 100000 tons of ore,
and their gold output that year was
over s3,sO0.000, or more than one-half
what We paid for Alaska. The mills
are now crushing about 5000 tons of
rock per day, and they have enough
ore blocked out to keep them busy
for six years to come. The force of
Iaborers consists of 1900 men, and
they get on the average wages OF 800
per month The rines support com
munity of about 5000 people. who live
in the towns of Douglas and Tread
we'll
This, in brief, is the story of the great
Treadwell properties which have been
mining gold here on Douglas Island
for more than a generation and which
will be mining for many years to come.
The mines are among the most famous
of the gold properties now working and
their owners are known the world over
as being the first who have SO success
fully gotten quantities of gold out of
some of the lowest of the low grade
gold rock Much of the ore mined here
contains less than 50 worth of gold to
the ton. and of the millions of tons
which have been mined, the average, as
] have said. has produced only s242
per ton. A ton of ore is two thousand
pounds. 1t is much as two horses
can haul in a wagon over a country
road. An ounce of pure gold is worth
$50. so that the gold represented by
$2.42 would weigh about one-ninth OF
an ounce. This means that only one
ninth of an ounce of gold has been
scattered through every two thousand
