Will Await Action

Tn the subsequent discussion it was agreed to allow the matter of choosing candidate for Senator to await the action of the Divisional convention, called for January at Seward, when other points can be heard from. However, 1t was established that 1t is the desire of the club that the Westward be represented In the Legislature, even tho Mir. Erskine was not available there were House memberships, which should be distributed over the populous centers whereby 1t could not be claimed that one or two towns in the Third Division took unto themselves all of the offices.
 Cheering News
 Accepting the invitation of Chair man Leon Urbach to make 8 few remarks, Mir. Ray sounded cheer ing note when ne said:
 Not within 12 years is there such call for gold prospects as at the present time. Scouts for many large mining corporations and op- orators travelled Alaska during the last summer, scouting for gold properties. We should look for ward to 1892 with pleasure and anticipation"
 Platform Report
 Under the head of routine and unfinished business, President Ur- bach received the following report of the platform committee as a suggestion for the adoption by the club:
 We do hereby reaffirm our be- lief in and adherence to the prin- ciples of the Republican party, and do assert that the future life of our nation depends upon the con- tinuation in office of men loyal to such ideals of government.

LARGE MINING DEAL IN WILLOW CREEK
 AREA |s PENDING
PAST SEASONS OPERATIONS SATISFACTORY: 100 MEN
 ARE EMPLOYED

Charles Bartholf, who with ". s. Horning, and Sid Black, holds a lease on the Gold Cord quartz mine, Willow Creek district, de- parted for California on the SS. Northwestern. Travelling on the same boat was Mir. Horning, and reports are current that a big deal on the Gold Cord is pending.
 The partners acquired lease on the property one year ago, and later purchased 20 ton mill owned by the Golden Bear company, sold under foreclosure proceedings.
 The result of the seasons oper- ations has been entirely satisfact- ory, said MT Bartholf, and there Is much ore in sight. One ship ment, made to the Tacoma smelter. consisting of 24 tons, netted ap- proxinately $l00 per ton.
 Approximately 100 m en have been employed In the Willow Creek district, of which the Willow Creek Mines company carries the largest force, numbering between 75 and 80 men, The Gold Cord mine em- ployed a total of 12.
 Willow Creek is going ahead ra- pidly," said MT. Bartholf, "and Is destined to become 8 big camp. There are many good prospects capable of developing into paying properties. All that is needed ts capital, which I believe will soon be forthcoming"
 During the past summer repre- sentatives of the Granby Smelling and Mining Company, made exten- sive examinations in the district. and it is reported plans were ar- nounced for the acquisition of 3 number of properties for the pur- pose of consolidating them into one big holding company.
 While MT. Bartholf would not deny or confirm the matter 1t is reported that the visit of himseif and MT. Horning to California Is for the purpose of acquiring tne Gold Cord by purchase and the ah- sorption of the Law interests in the Golden Bear.
 MT. Bartholf with his uncle, Gene Bartholf, was one of the ori- ginal stakers in Willow Creek, and practically all of the mines now operating, were located by this group.
 Gene Bartholf, who Is spending the winter trapping in the vicinity of Lost River, northwest from Tal- keetna, and Charles Bartholf, have acquired the extension of the Boe- decker Brothers rich strike on Lost River.
 Some very rich quartz has been opened by the Boedeckers, and big things are predicted for the dis trict.

 The Spotlight


 The Spotlight Aside from dealing with routine matters, such as whipping the or ganization into greater cohesive ness, the question of making a choice for Senator to bear the col prs of the G. o. P. against Demo- cracy's Jimmy Campbell, occupied the spotlight.
 Under the inspiration for extend : ing party power and at the same time giving recognition to sections hitherto neglected and overlooked in choosing members of the Legis- lature, the executive committee re- ported having dispatched the fol- lowing telegram to E. J. Erskine of Kodiak:
 Erskine Suggested
 "The Executive Committee of the Seward Republican Club would be pleased to present your name to the club as possible nominee for Territorial Senator. Will you ac- eept? Please wire"
 L. V. Ray offered the name of Mir. ErSkine, explaining that the club had merely offered the privilege of his name coming before the club. "The idea was" said MT. Ray, to select man. without going to An chorage, as they already have a can- didate from there; also that hither- 10 the Westward had been signally overlooked in naming members for the Legislature, and that such 3 selection would give merited recog- nition."
 Does Not Choose
 At this juncture Secretary E. P. Harwood produced the following answer from MT. Erskine:
 T am highly appreciative of the confidence expressed in your tele- gram, and while desirouS of serving the Territory wherever such serv- ice may be beneficial, I must re- fuse at this time for business rea- sons to accept the nomination suggested"
 Upon receipt of MT. Erskine'S telegram, Elwyn Swetmann placed the name of L. V. Ray in nomina- ton, seconded by J. L. Reed. MT. Ray explained that no man would scorn the endorsation of his community, but that he felt that the matter should be worked out at the convention, and therefore de- elined.

POLICEMEN AND THE BABY

In Brookly police station, police
men were forming platoon to march
to their beats. A woman out of
breath from running stumbled through
the doorway, baby clutched in her
arms.
"My baby" she cried, "my baby is
dead"
Immediately the policemen got into
action. One of them took the baby
and began to work her little arms
and legs. Another breathed into her
mouth. For fifteen minutes they
worked. From chair, where she had
virtually collapsed, the mother watch
ed, almost listlessly, for her hope was
gone. And then thin wall, move
ment. The mother instantly was at
her baby's side. The policemen work
ed on for few more minutes till the
surgeon arrived, treated the child for
internal convulsions and completed
the saving of its life.
Society makes lot of complaints
against its policemen Too frequently
perhaps, they are we'll grounded. But
what would society do if there were
no policemen to run to when things
go wrong, from trouble with the
neighbor's boy to the baby's convul-
sions? Everything considered, traffic
violations and all that, the policeman
probably has just as much ground to
complain against society, perhaps
more than society has to complain
against the bluecoat.- Labor
