Rich Gold Discovery
 On Chichagof Island

Some of the finest ore speci- mans ever seen in Juneau were brought in this week from a vein uncovered by Joe Jackson on Chichagof island, between Chichagof and the famous st-Chichagof mine. The vein is said to be from three to seven feet wide, and speci- mems brought in town Sunday by MT. Goldstein, approach specimens of jewelry ore, so thickly is the rock studded with gold.
 A group of local business men are interested in the prop erty with MT. Jackson. For the past month they have had a crew of four men at work stripping the vein and sinking holes over the property to yer ify the find. The vein has been traced from beach level to the top of the ridge adjoin- ing the water.
 Interested with MT. Jackson in the strike are George Rice, Charles Goldstein, Allen Shat tuck, Dr. w. w. Council and Dr. Robert Simpson.
 The strike is one of the best, from surface indications that has been made in this section for a number of years.-Stroll- CTS Weekly.

Ore Sample Attracts. Interest

A speciman of Banded Mount ain quartz of decidedly spec tacular appearance brought to town by Frank Blasher, at- tracted marked interest where ever shown.
 The rock, a pure white quartz of several pounds weight, was studded over one side with conical quartz crystals, some with six or eight sides, inter- spersed with large cubes of iron pyrite colored with rain- bow 1hues on every angle. Each turn of the sample resulted in a glow of beautifully chang ing colors, distinctly pleasing to the eye. Samples of the type are seldom found in the dis trict, according to prospectors

M. D. Ickis Stroke Victim

Marsh D. Ickis, widely known old-timer and one of the early day mining locators and prospectors of the Hyder district, became the victim of a paralytic stroke some time Friday night or Saturday morn ing at the Riverside mine camp, where he was employed as watchman.
 MT. Ickis's plight did not be- come known until Saturday afternoon, when he was found lying on the floor of his dwell ing place by Mrs. D. White head, who had stopped at the camp for a drink of water while passing along the Salm- on river highway. MT. Ickis was clad only in his under clothing, indicating that he had been overtaken just before or after arising. He was seen Fri day evening by Oren F. Hill, who stopped at the Riverside camp after a visit to his Crest property, farther up the val ley. MT. Ickis appeared in good health at the time.
 The unfortunate old-timer, who is over 82 years of age, was taken to the Stewart hos pital, where his entire right side was found paralyzed. He remained in the hospital until Tuesday, when he was taken to Ketchikan on the weekly mail boat in care of Frank R. Nagle. His condition was ma terially improved at the time of his departure and telegraph ic advices later reported he had arrived safely in Ketchi- kan.
 MT. Ickis is interested in a number of valuable mining properties in the Salmon River section and visited the district every summer for years.

SAL MON PACK NOW
 OVER 100000 MARK

Predictions of an abnormally large Alaska salmon pack this year are sustained by an an- nouncement from Juneau that the pack on August IA was we'll above 4,000,000 cases, with indications that it will al- most attain 5,000,000 cases, if it does not exceed that figure by the time the season for commercial fishing closes.
 Canneries are reported block ed by heavy receipts, follow ing a spurt in the salmon run in the First Division. Heavy runs of pink salmon were re- ported from Ketchikan and the west coast of Prince of Wales Island. Southeast Alas ka's total pack to that date was about 1,550,000 cases and was expected to reach 2,O00,- 900 cases by the close of the fishing season.

PREMIER OPTIONS
 SALMON-GOLD GROUP

Interest in the recent import ant gold strike on the Salmon Gold property in the Summit Lake area was enhanced this week by an announcement that the Premier Gold Mining Com- pany has taken an option on the property and will prospect it by diamond drilling. It is understood than an outfit was being taken out to the property this week.
 The Salmon-Gold property is owned by Ted Morris and oth- CTS and includes a total of twenty-six claims located at the west side of Summit Lake. Morris has been engaged for some time in developing the property with excellent results in so far as surface indications are a criterion. Samples show ing gold values in excess of $50 per ton are said to have been frequent, with average samples running around one and a half ounces in gold and an ounce or more in silver per ton. The naturalization is very extensive.
 Dr. J. T. Mandy, Provincial government engineer for Brit ish Columbia, has recommend ed the property to engineers for examination, hence it would appear to have a very bright outlook for further de- velopment.

Reindeer Production
 To Be Curtailed

Reindeer production in North ern Alaska will be heavily cur tailed this year as a result of a decision of the Lomen Rein deer Corporation, of Nome, to refrain from slaughtering deer this year. The company is the largest producer and export CT of reindeer in the north.
 As a result production of reindeer meat will be confined largely to animals slaughter ed by Eskimos and two small CT corporations, Walchter Bros. and the Alaska Cold Storage. The total production is not ex- pected to exceed 5000 car casses.

Alaskans who have tramped the "toe-twisting tundra" with myriads of mosquitos biting their necks would no doubt take an unhesitating oath that there are at least a thousand different varieties of those pestiferous skin puncturers. Hence they will no doubt be surprised to learn from Prof. George s. Fullock, an expert, that theer are only 20 species in Alaska, although probably agreeing that even twenty is far too many for comfort, es- pecially in districts where there couldn't be more of them unless they were smaller.
 Dr. Fullock, according to the Fairbanks News-Miner, has been engaged for some time in an investigation of mosquito control in Alaska on cooper ative agreement between the Fairbanks Exploration Com pany and the department of agriculture. Dr. Bullock be- lieves that are probably 20 species of mosquitos engaged in the business of exploring human hides in the Territory. It is a mistake to assume, he says, that the small mosquitoes which come after the large ones in the spring are progeny of the latter kind, for they are an entirely different species. Dr. Tullock also exploded an other belief of many people that the little gray songsters breed in the wet tundra moss. They never breed in wet moss or grass, he says, no matter how thick they may be there as they require water for breeding.
 Doctor Tullock said it was too early to say whether con- trol measures in the Fairbanks region would be successful. Some mosquitoes fly 300 yards and some 20 miles, hence fur ther investigation would be necessary to determine if the local varieties are long range flyers or not before attempt ing control measures.

Territory Gives City of
 Ketchikan Hatchery Plant

The Territorial fish hatchery at Ketchikan, which was estab- lished several years ago, has been turned over to the city of Ketchikan, Governor George A. Parks having signed a deed to the property several weeks ago.
 The Territory has another hatchery at Cordova which 1t would like to turn over to the municipality there if the Cor dovans will take it. The trans fer of both canneries was authorized by the late legis- lature after the members ot that body had turned down a request to appropriate funds to put the territory back into the hatchery business.
 There was a third hatchery at Seward, but that plant was destroyed by fire several years ago.

ALASKA ROUTES FOR
 HIGHWAY TRACED

Further progress in the de- velopment of the Pacific-Yu- kon-Alaska international high way project is presented in re- ports from Dawson, Yukon Territory, to the effect that Donald Macdonald, of Fair banks, arrived there recently and announced that he was making good progress on a reconnaissance survey of a route for the international highway from Fairbanks to the Alaska Canada border.
 The route laid out by MT. Mcdonald would connect with the Richardson Highway at a point 90 miles south of Fair banks and extend eastward to the international boundary near Glacier Creek, a stretch 325 miles in length, 90 miles of which is already construct ed.
 MT Macdonald also surveyed another route which presented a terrain easy for construction operations, except for stretch of 10 miles near the Yukon Territory boundary, and con- templated a third survey east ward from Panama Crossing.

Pinchot Hopes For
 Alaska Statehood

Hope that Alaska would be admitted to statehood was eX- pressed by Governor Clifford Pinchot of Pennsylvania, in a letter read at the annual Alas ka-Yukon Sourdough stampede in Portland, according to press reports.
 Gov. Pinchot said in the mes sage that he recalled with qualification that he was hanged in effigy at Cordova twenty years ago because of his conservation of Alaska re- sources policy and that Jack Dalton prevented citizens from keeping him from landing from a steamboat there while he was head of the Forest Service
 "I struggled to prevent cer- tain men from trying to plum der Alaska. My interest nAlas- ka began when I was a green young forester there, long be- fore the so-called Ballinger case" the governor said.
