MAN IS OPTIMISTIC
 REGARDING NoRTHS FUTURE

In the opinion of Erich Lucas, formery vice president and cashier of the Hartman National Bank of Alaska, at Seward, which institution has hquidated to the Bank of Sew ard, the outlook for the future of Alaska, and especially of South western Alaska, is very bright In statement made at Juneau recently, on his way to the States, he ex- pressed the belief that great possi- bilities will be realized when the Government railroad is completed and traffic from the ocean to the Interior starts and branch lines are established.
 From information obtained before leaving for the South, the banker predicts that the railroad will be connected on or about the first of November, making a continuous band of steel connecting the ocean terminous with the Interior termi- nous"
 He also predicts that there is going to be slump along the line of the Government railroad after it is completed, which is natural until the country through which it passes is developed sufficiently to furnish tonnage. Take away the construction forces of the railroad and little activity will remain. The agricultural districts of the Mata- nuska Valley and the Nenana Val ley will then begin to come into their own and with new districts developed along the railroad and the old ones furnished with feeders, that section of the North will take a spurt that will certainly cause an increased and permanent population
 Anchorage will perhaps feel the completion of the railroad more than any other city as it will mean that at least 1,50O and perhaps 2,O0O men will be affected and they will leave for other parts of Alaska or for the States. Anchorage, how ever, will remain the chief city of that section as there is rich min ing country adjacent and the pro- duetion of coal in the Matanuska will also serve as feeder. .
 Tt is estimated that at least 2,0OO persons will be leaving Southwestern Alaska between now and the holi- days. Already the steamers are talk ing capacity loads and how all will be able to go South is a mystery. From what l learn of conditions in the States, man having a job Ill Alaska had better stick"
 Mir. Lucas, accompanied by his wife and baby daughter, is enroute to the East and, after a brief vaca- tion, will report to the Hartman National Bank in New York City, where he was located before being transferred to the branch at Sew ard.

ANCHORAGE OVERCRoWDED;
 RENTS ARE GOING SKYWARD

ArrlFa!S n Nenaha lEou LHe coast bring word that vacant build ings in Anchorage are at Freni- um, both in the business section and in the residential part of town. And the result of this condition is a general advance in rents Store rooms range from $50 70 $500 and upward, according to size and To- cation, and living quarters com mand fancy prices also.
 It is predicted, however, that the fall exodus of people from the rail road town will be followed by re auctions in rentals.
 In a business way, the town is well supplied with all kinds of stores, restaurants and pool halls and there are many idle people. on the streets, with g continuous flow of population in and out of the town.
 Those who are in business or who own property in Anchorage are very optimistic regarding the future of the town. The Willow and Cache creek mining districts are tributal y, the coal mines constitute source of steady revenue and the new Girdwood gold quartz district is said to be full of promise. samples of the ore recently found are on display at a number of places in Anchorage and the belief Is general that the find is a good one. Much confidence Is also expressed in oil development in the immediate vicin- ity Of Anchorage The town also has back of 1t a steadily increasing area of producing agricultural land.
 It is said that there are quite 3 number of people in Anchorage, how ever, who believe that the comple- tion of the Government railroad to Nenana will be followed by ,5b- stantial drift of coast people to the Interior and there are those who even predict that the Interior ter minous is destined to be the biggest town on the railroad.
 Opinions vary regarding the time that will be- required to close the gap on the railroad. The end of steel south from Hurricane Gulch has reached East Fork, where the track laying is held up by bridge work. But within week or ten days steel will begin moving north again and there is long stretch of completed grade ahead. Some mushers who have arrived from the coast within the past few days, predict that the connection will be made not later than the end of February, while others are of the opinion that there will be Q gap of from 20 to 90 miles to close when work is resumed in the spring. All agree that the progress of the work will be governed large Y by weather conditions.
 II is understood that it is the in tention of the Commission to put a number of teams on the trail as soon as conditions will permit, for the purpose of conducting a regu- lar freight service between steel during the winter. There will be a lot of Commission freight to haul and present market conditions in dicate that many Of the Interior merchants are figuring on replenish- ing stocks during the winter. Ship- ments by way of the river thus far this summer have been unusually light and there is reason to believe that it will be necessary to ship

MANY CLAIMS ARE STAKED
 IN MAYO SILVER DISTRICT

cording to a statement appearing in a recent issue of the Dawson Daily News. This number includes approximately 500 claims in that area applied for this season. The greatest number of claims are on Keno Hill and most of the others on hills adjacent to Keno. Quartz Recorder Gillespie and others of the Gold office have been kept busy most of the summer receiving and filing the applications and diagrams and issuing grants.
 Of the applications received re- gently about two-thirds are for To- cations made on Galena Hill. Some thing like fifty claims have been staked there. 4 few staked last fall and others since the snow went off in the spring.
 Arrivals at Dawson from the Up per Stewart say the first stakings on Galena last spring were on the Duncan creek side, and that more recently a new strike has attracted attention on the westerly or Galena Greek side, toward the McQuestion valley. About thirty men are said to have joined in a stampede over the hill from Duncan Creek and Keno City between July r and 20, and to have staked, and others were re- ported going over to stake at the time the last adyices were received from there.
 Ed. Elwell, old-time Hunker Creek miner, who was one of the stam- peders, went to Dawson later and reported that the trail from Keno City over to the point where the more recent stalking began is about four miles long, and through the timber and brush. The discovery was made on the face of bluff on what is known as Porcupine Creek, which enters Galena Creek three miles above the old Silver King mine. The Silver King several years ago was discovered by Harry Me Whorter and sold to Tom Aitkin. and later held for a time by Frank Manley and E. J. Ives. MT. Ives is in Dawson now.
 The Silver King is reported to have produced something like half million dollars and the new loca- tiOns, it is thought by some, are on the same belt.
 Elwell staked within one claim of the new discovery. E. K. Jones, an oldtimer of the district, located the discovery claim and the next stalker, on a line extending toward the SiI- yer King, was Charley Stone. old time Dawson freighter. Then. in the order named, came Elwer, Billy Douglas, Dick Major, and others, ln- cluding pr. W. E. Thompson and Bob Fisher.
 Elwen says a ledge 20 feet wide is exposed on discovery claim, but 1t is not known definitely whether it is silver or some other ore. Some reports state that experts have ex- pressed the belief that the ore is extra high value, carrying some of the more rare and most desirable forms of silver. Others claim that assays showed only a few dollars to the ton in silver. Plans have been made to take some of the ore out this season for tests j
 It is stated that the claims staked on Galena Hill are not more than five miles south of Keno Hill. All the claims staked to date on Keno. Galena, Stand-To and other points lie in a belt extending northeasterly and southwesterly across the Mayo area, and described last year by Dr. Cockfeld, Dominion geologist, as forming zone lying between Dub lin C1lcb tho ror,+h
