from the Skagway Chief, which is
located on Reed creek about 2 miles
and a half from the bluff of the hill
overlooking the Skagway river.

of which was published in the Alas

obtained in Juneau show $2.32 in
gold. The ledge is a fine looking
ore; over ten feet in width, and lies
between granite and diorite walls.
Mr. Bledso will have it cross-cut
just as fast as he can and will soon
have some ore down for the sampling
mill to work on.
About two miles below the Skag

Bledso has another claim known as
the Galena from which assay reports

THE RAMPART
John A. Laird, an old time sour
dough who was located In S'tagway
In '98, passed over to Whltehorae on
this morning's train bound for the
section n?>ar Rampart.
Mr. Laird has been in marly alt
the good camps of the North Includ
ing Dawson. Nome. Fairbanks, Cir
cle and Forty Ml!e. It is his belief
that the country around Rampart,
while it has very little ground that
carries sensational values. Is one of
the best districts in the North.
There Is, he says, lots of ground
suitable for dredging or steam shovel
work: plenty with splendid values
for hydrau'icklng, and a .limited
amount which is known to carry |
values sufficient for drift mining
Some of the ground will pay to shov- j
el in during the summer season
wher - It is shallow, but for the most
part It will require machinery to get
the b?' t profits out of the mining
All the ground is frozen.
