gings Yields Bountiful
ly, Reported
_
[ The Kougarok district, ad
jacent to Name, is going
rapidly ahead, last year be
1 ing the scene of a veritable
beehive of industry. The
ground was worked almost
altogether by independent
miners, and not a man en
gaged but came out with a
good payday.
Such was the report of
Senator Jas. Frawley, who
with Mrs. Frawley is en
route east.
The Coal Creek Dredge
Co., carried on so well last
year that more equipment
will be installed in 1936,
expansion of the work with
them as well with others to
be apparent.
Aside from the Kougarok
country practically all the
ground being worked about
Nome has been yielding
gold since the discovery.
The difference now is that
depth is sought the gold
lying in successive stratas.,
The perpetually frozen
ground is kept in constant
thaw by the use of piped
in cold water a process, as
explained by Senator Fraw
ley, that brings perfect re
sults.
Old Gold Run creek has
come back <to life with a
rush, the Bartholamae Oil
Corporation will have both
dredge and hydraulic go
ing the coming summer.
New People in gold mining
on a big scale.
Big Hurrah, under oper
tion by C. D. Lane, took out
a million in the old days,!
and is now reopening, while
Tin City, 65 miles east of
Nome, is bringing in more
machinery with expansive
program in view.
Senator Frawley is not at
all excited over politics.
He did not file for reelec
tion and from the way he
talked, he is out of it. A
practicing attorney, he finds
more of interest in mining
and is looking forward to
big things in gold for all of
Nome. —Seward Gateway,
