It appears that the calling of Democratic primaries to take place at Flat last Satur day night was due to the fear on the part of some of the followers of Jefferson, Jack son and Wilson located at Flat that the holding of the delegate elections would be delayed until too late to get the credentials before the Juneau convention. When 1t was explained that the call already issued was in accordance with the wishes of the party leaders the proposed primaries were abandoned.

SHALL STAMPEDE STARTED
 TO TOLSTOI, OPHIR DISTRICT

Bob Boyd, the mail carrier, brings word from Ophir of a small stampede which re- gently started from Ophir and vicinity to Tolstoi river, otherwise known as "Booby" creek situated on the old Dishakaket trail, about thirty miles from Ophir. According to Mir Boyd, while there was no undue ex citement, about all the available men at the Innoko camp had started for the new district to stake claims.
 It appears that the discoverer of the creek has been prospecting there for the last three years, and recently uncovered good pros pects, which were thought sufficient indi- cation that pay would be located. There had been rumors of pay being found, but as far as known nothing better than 2cent pans had yet been reported. However the district is highly thought of as prospective producer and it is likely that considerable prospecting will result
