Anchorage, the ter ml nut of the
Alaskan oentral railroad from the
eoaat to Fairbanks, ia being men*
tioned in the daily preaa aa the
•oeneof recent gold diaeoveriea.
eaid to have been made in the
eouroe of grading for the railroad.
Thia ie “a la mode deH Cobalt, and
we hope it will prove ae important
aa the diecoveries that led to the
widespread development of Ontar
io. We would be delighted to have
these reports confirmed, for the
opening of a new goldfield in Alas
ka would be the best possible thing
foi mining at this time. Mean
while we are skeptical, because the
accounts laok verisimilitude. The
latest ‘Associated Prees' dispatch
says that “many strikes have been
made in the rook-outs blasted out
of the preeipitous walls of the
Turnagain Arm division of the Un
ited States railway between Sew
ard and Anchorage." It is asserted
that “values ranging around $25
pet ton were found in veins twenty
odd feet in width." This is jour
nalese in place of tho simple ititi
man* that an auay of $25 had baen
obtained on a sample taken from
lode-matter 29 feet wide. Ai one
■wallow does not make a summer,
•o one go^d assay does not turn
rook into 'ore.' Again, it is stated
that “while some veins show free
geld, the major portion of them in
dicate what is known as cyaniding
ores necessitating concentration."
It would be well if the ‘Associated
Press' selected as its representative
in a mining region somebody who
know! something about mining and
milling; who knew, for example,
the difference between cyanidatioo
and concentration, between mag
netic and mag.natic, between eya
nite and syenite, between alaskite
and holdmetiu.—Mining and Sci
entific Press.
MADE THE SHIP PERFORM
There is a story going the rounds
to the effect that a ship which was
christened at the launching with a
bucket of moonshine instead of a
bottle of wine danced around in
such an erratic manner that even
the captain was taken seasick.
