The Council mooting was short,
sharp and decisive and four fifths ot
it was taken up by the reading of
the minutes of the proceding meet
ing, Councilmen Blake, Lehman and
Thompson together with Mayor
Diamond were on hand when the
meeting was called to order, Coun
cilman Lomen arriving later in the
evening.
There were no reports from city
officers, committees, regular or spe
cial, and no new business.
Under the head of unfinished
business telegrams which had been
dispatched to Delegate Wickershain,
Senator Pittman and Houston were
read. These protested against cur
tailing the right of the Territory to
tax fisheries thereby throwing a
burden on local industries in favor
of foreign corporations.
The Mayor asked if anything had j
been done in the matter of the
Darling and Dean taxation protest,
but there was no report.
The labor bills were ordered
paid.
Councilman Thompson when the
Mayor said a motion to adjourn
was in order rose equal to the oc
casion and made his usual motion.
From a letter written to a friend
by Jens Madsen of Dime creek, we
quote the following excerpts.
Now in regard to Dime creek, I
will say that we have just passed
through two periods of the three
which seems to be the fate of every
new camp. During the first period
everyone is hopeful and optimistic
and sees nothing but good in the
new camp. But look out for the
next period, for that is one of fear
ful depression. As a rule, things
don’t come up to the expectations of
all the newcomers right away, 30
the easily discouraged ones get the
blues after making a few efforts and
give up, starting to condemn and
knock the camp and its future.
They see no chance of making any
thing and have large proof to hack
up their contentions with.
But 1 think that now wo have
passed through that period. The
discouraged ones have left an..l
prospecting commences to give re
sults.
The paystreaks here are irregular
and hard to deal with until we get
on to the hang of it. But at present
there are seven contigunus claims
where actual pay is being hoisted.
Nearly all are using windlasses, but
before spring there will be at least
four self dumpers running.
We are at present located on No.
2 above and have found pretty fair
pay, and are now busy rigging up
our self dumper. Most of our ma
chinery had to be hauled by dog
team from the Mission, 60 miles
away. We have not got it all here
yet, so it will take some time to get
things in running order.
A few prospectors have moved to
other creeks, but no results have
been heard of yet, with tho excep
tion of the stampede to Willow
creek where they have found a little
but not anything like what it was
reported to be at first. However,
some forty claims were staked.
The grub shortage is gradually
being overcome with supplies from
Golovin, so we are not in want of
anything particular, but we have to
pay five cents per pound extra for
freight.
i ne iuei question aiso seems to
solve Itself. At first the supply
seemed scant, but now I think there
is enough to carry the camp through
next summer. At present it is be
ing landed on the claims for $8.00
per cord, and the natives are cutting
most of it. They are a good deal
more - advanced than the natives
around Nome in the way of living.
But they also have the same trouble
as the white man, having to work
all the time to make both ends
meet.
Lumber for mining purposes can
be landed here for $65.00 per thou
sand from Brown’s sawmill at Peace
river, and a steam saw is also here
to saw up the wood. Winckel has
just arrived from Candle with four
horses and feed enough to last them
all winter, so we have everything
that it takes to make a camp except
a post office and a recording office
But in the full measure of time per
haps the Department in Washington
will discover that we exist, but as
far as convincing the officials at
Nome that a Recorder is a most
vital necessity of the camp, w» have
Just about given up hoping against
hope.
