Casey Moran, former well known
Seattle newspaper man, whose fare
and trlsh blarney were for years fa
miliar to the sourdoughs In every
mining camp In Alaska, with X. H.
Trnett, an experienced mining camp
newspaper man, has established the

HI SEWARD
Captain Nols Peterson and J. D.
Meenach. says the Seward Gateway,
have taken n bond on the Redman
quartz properties, located about 12
miles up Resurrection river. The deal
was made through the efforts of T.
D. Corlew. A cash payment was
made yesterday.
There are two separate properties,
or ledges. Involved in the deal. The
larger ledge varies from ten to forty
feet, permeating which are stringers
of very high grade ores, carrying val
ues in gold and silver, the latter ap
pearing in a native state. Paralleling
the larger ledge is one about 4 feet
in width, the values lying In the ar
senides. Those who have seen these
ledges declare that they present ex
cellent prospects. Both are well de
fined and can be traced by an out
crop a considerable distance.
Captain Peterson is now In Seat
tle. but will return here at an early
date. Mr. Meenach is here.
WICKERSHAM
PLACER Li
The full text of the proposed new
placer law, introduced by Delegate
Wickersham, is given below. A glance
at the proposed new law will show
it to be a great advance on the old
system, which enables large blocks
of land to be tied up by pencil min
ers and land hog*.
An act to modify and amend the
raining laws in their application to
the Territory of Alaska, and for
other purposes.
Be it enacted by the Senate and
House of Representatives of the Unit
ed States of America in congress as
sembled, that no association placer
mining claim shall hereafter be locat
ed in Alaska in excess of 40 acres,
and on every placer mining claim
hereafter located in Alaska, and un
til a patent has been issued there
for, not less than one hundred dol
lars' worth of labor shall be perform
ed or improvements made during
each year, including the year of lo
cation, for each and every 20 acres
or excess fraction thereof.
Sec. 2. That no person shall here
after locate any placer mining claim
in Alaska as attorney for another un
less he is duly authorized thereto by
a power of attorney In writing, duly
acknowledged and recorded in any
recorders office in the judicial divis
ion where the location is made. Any
person so authorised may locate
placer-mining claims for not more
than two principals or associations
under such power of attorney, but
no such agent or attorney shall be
authorized or permitted to locate
more than two placer mining claims
for any one principal or association
during any calendar month, and no
placer mining claim shall hereafter
be located In Alaska except under
the provisions of this act
Sec. 3. That no person shall here
after locate, cause or procure to be
located for himself, more than two
placer mining claims in any calendar
month. Provided that one or both
of sucJi locations may be included in
an association claim.
Sec. 4. That no placer mining
claim hereafter located in Alasfcfl
shall be patented which shall contain
a greater area thnn is fixed by law, j
nor which is longer than three times
its width.
Sec. ft. That any placer mining j
claim attempted to be located in vi- !
elation of this act shall be null and
void, and the whole area threeof may
be located by any qualified locator
as if no such prior attempt had been
made.
100 BAD-BUT
1
Editor Willy Alaskan:
There are two kinds of prospectors
often to bo found very much in evl
dnece In the wake of a movement
like that of last night. The first is
the hog who has a mania for stak
ing claims, all over the district on
the "dog in the manger" plan. Not
in the hope of ever being able to
de*olop the properties himself hut,
on the meager chance of selling the
prospect to others at softie future J
date.
The l". S. Mining laws never con
templated the regulating of thin In
dividual, and It Is possible under
thorn, for him to hold back Indefin
itely good property, in this way, 1
without any expense to himself, oth
er than that of going around at the
end of the year and writing anew
the notices in his discovery monu
ment*. !j is not hard to see the dls
oii raging effect thla man's work
has on legitimate prospectors, who
trudges all over the hill*, only to
find himself thus shut ont of his
rightful reward. In some camps in
Colorado and Nevada, thta "pencil
prospector" Is summarcly dealt with
Folks with money and energy to go |
down on a ledge, are advised to cam
niorece operations and In case of a
lawsuit they have but to call for a
jury trlnl. and public sentiment will
always favor the man who acts In
good faith.
The other gentleman Is known as a |
"knocker." A large part of hi* pros
pecting Is done In the corner of ?
bar room, where with a dirty deck
of cards he tries to beat "old Sol."
He has an Ragle's eye for the "Hto !
one" who has just been brought In
to the Camp, at some trouble and
expense. And If permitted to Inter
view him privately will invariably '
spoil a sale, despite the most prom
Ising evidences of wealth to be at
talned by sinking.
In the desert country this last
gentleman Is handled by the town
marshal, who slips a bottle of water
into his hand and gives him till j
sundown tq hit the grit.

FLAT CITY IS
VERY AMBITIOUS
Flat City in the Iditarod promise j
to outdistance Iditarod OMty and a i
movement is afoot to have the re- i
<?rding district removed from Idtt- j
arod to Flat and of inducing Judg<
Cushman to hold court on Flat creek '
this spring instead of at Iditarod a?
planned. A petition wes circulated
by Dr. Carter, formerly of Hot
Springs, for the removal of the re^
cording district. Recently when h<
was mushing up Otter creek the I
petition fell out of his pocket and a i
malaniuta dog ate it up.
