GOOD MINING
YEAR seen BY
SAM GODFREY
Veteran Kougarok Man Re
turns North After Win
ter in States

Predicting prosperous years ahead
for mining in the Seward Peninsula
district. sam l.. Godfrey, Kougarok
mining man, is a passenger aboard
the Yukon after a winter in the
south. returning to the Territory
which after Sc years claims him as
a leading sourdough.
The Seward Peninsula stands to
profit richly from application OF
new machinery which makes pos
sible the use of low grade ground, :
Godfrey stated, this morning, be-
fore sailing on Westward aboard the
Yukon. More and more machinery
is being introduced and expansion
is inevitable with the country as
good as it is.
Greater accessibility because OF
air planes, and the high price OF
gold were also cited by the vet
eran mining man as main factors in
Alaskan minin. success.
Godfrey is on his way to the Kou-
garok River where his mining in
terests lie. Two dredges operate on
the river, he stated, and five or
six drag lines are located nearby,
Prominent interests in the Kougarok
district include those of Woodbury.
Abbey, Herbert j. Clough, James
Keenan,, William Castleton, the Lor-
ane Brothers Company the Kan
aria Company, the Fox Bar Dredg-
ing Company, and Godfrey's inter-
ests on Henry Creek which includes
drag line and hydraulic operations.
Godfrey has been spending the
winter in Seattle and California,
and states that among other factors
influencing prosperous season
ahead for the Nome district is the
satisfactory state of labor condi-
tons.

In California
Mrs. Margaret Saxman,
Widow of Founder of
Town of Saxman, Dies

Mrs. Margaret Saxman, widow OF
Samuel Saxman, founder of the
town of Saxman, died in California
recently, according to word to Will
liam l.. Paul of Juneau. Reporting
the death and telling some of the
early history Mr.. Paul said:
Possibly only the real pioneers
.of Alaska will remember Mrs. Marg-
aret Saxman who died in Pasa-
dena, California, on April 3, which
only shows how fast Alaska is
changing Her husband was Samuel
Saxman who was the Federal school
teacher at Loring in 1886.
Samuel Saxman and Louis Paul
the father of the Paul brothers
were drowned early in December
1856, when, with an Indian named
Johnson, they went to view the pro-
posed townsite on Annette Island
called "Touk- ahni" winter village
where the Indians of Cape Fox and
Tongass proposed to build model
village
In the March following. while
Tillie Paul was recovering from the
birth of Louis, the scouts of the
Tsimpsheans, David Leask, and two
5thers, stopped to pay their respects
10 the widow of Louis Paul, and
learn about "Touk-ahni" from Mrs.
Paul, to which point they were then
guided by Chief George johnson.
That is how the town of Metlakatla
came into being.
TN honor of Samuel SaXman re-
garded as having died for them,
the -yah-quan (south people,
named their new town "SaXman'
three miles south of Ketchikan.
Mrs. Saxman was genuinely in
terested in the Thlingit people and
soon found employment in the Gov
eminent School at Juneau, where
she taught on the site of what is
now the Federal Building. Later she
entered the force at the Sitka Train
ing School where she taught until
she retired to the home in Pasadena
Scores of Indians yet living can
testify to her love and zeal and af-
firm that her influence is still living
among them.
She was eighty-four years old.
Her life. with her husband
touched all the people of Metlakat-
la. 1t is not known where these peo-
pie would have gone ii Samuel Sax
man and Louis Paul had not taker
that last trip"

Public School
Funds in North
May Be Changed
Of Certain Ac-
counts to Treasurer Is
Favorably Reported
BY J. J. ECKLES
Secretary to Delegate DimOnd

WASHINGTON, April 4.-(Spec-
ial Correspondence Favorable re-
port was made March 30 by the
House Committee on the Terri
tories on the bill sponsored by Dele
gate Dimond to authorize the
transfer of certain Federal public
school funds to the Treasurer OF
the Territory of Alaska for dis
bursement in paying teachers sal
aries and. other school obligations
as they become due The bill also
proposes to extend the school terms
from to months and to permit
the employment of more than one
teacher in each school.
The chief reason for the bill as
pointed out in the committee re-
port states that under the law
it is necessary for the United
States Treasury to pay over the
money for the support of the Nell
son schools to the local school
boards of the several schools so
maintained. Owing to several fac
tors, there is always considerable
delay in payment Of the salaries
of teachers and other expenses Of
the Nelson schools Sometimes
teachers salaries have been in ar
rears as much as months or
longer, and the same conditions
exist with respect to other school
expenses. Under the bill it is pro-
posed to transfer all such public
school funds from the Federal
treasury to the Territorial treasury
so that the money may be disbursed
by the Territorial officials for the
support of schools. This will pro-
