FAIRBANKS ID HAVE FOUR NEW DREDGES
 BUILT NEXT YEAR
OLDTIME DRILLER SAYS THAT RESULTS THUS FAR ARE
 SATISFACTORY

Heading a party of mining men from the Interior, Charles Holke, who for number of years has been identified with the Fairbanks Ex- ploration Co.,, in it's drilling opera tions as the company searched for the pay, went thru Seward Satur- day night, embarking for Seattle where they will spend the winter. MT. Holke is perhaps as well in-
 formed on the paystreaks in the
 many creeks off the Ester Dome as any man in that district, since it was largely upon his findings that the company's plan of operations was built.
 There will be at least two more dred9es built next season and pro- bably four although I am not speaking officially or authoritative ly However, I know that the re- suits of this seasons actual dredg- ing have been eminently satisfac- tory and along the results expected to be achieved from our mapping of Ithe pay thru the drill holes. The original program will be adhered to. The fact that the company is not building dredges in the winter time as they have done heretofore, is no sign as is commonly rumored that they are not going to build more. These uninformed knockers are doing a great deal of harm to the Fairbanks district as a whole, when as matter of fact the F E. Co.,, program up to date has been car ried out as planned and the results have been even better than were calculated
 MT. Holke said that drilling is go- ing forward on Engineer Creek under the direction of an English syndicate. The Nome Creek dredge under the direction of Sam God frey, has had very good season. Holke drills for them and is of the opinion they have a very good pay streak with several years work ahead The Fish Creek dredges have been working all season with good returns as well as the Ameri- can Creek dredges. The latter will install a new steam-thawing sys- tenn next spring.
 Among others in the party were Lorne Mcintosh, who has been in and out of Fairbanks for a number of years. He is mining in the Liv- engood district where he is drifting and open-cutting.
 c. F. McPherson who has been in Alaska for IT years and who has re- gently been with the F. E. Co.,, says the cleanups from the F. E. Co.'s dredges, in this first seasons work are very satisfactory. T think AL aska is coming back strong at the depository of millions in gold that has never yet been thoroughly To- cated," he said. Fred Crane, who has mining connections in Occur de ALeane, showed an interest in the report on Nuka Bay while he was in Seward Saturday evening, and re- solved to bring the new camp to the attention of his people on the Outside.
