HERRON SAYS
WICKERSHAM TO
GET THE BACON
(Juneau Dispatch)
Charles Herron, proprietor and pub
lisher of The Anchorage Times, was
interviewed by the Dispatch yesterday
on his way to the outside.
“Delegate Wickersham,” he said,
“will get 75 per cent of the vote in
Cook inlet and along the government
railway.
“There is no question in the minds
of our people in that section who is
entitled to credit for the introduction
and adoption of the Alaska govern
ment railroad measure. We are ac
quainted with the history Of the entire
legislation, as we have had and still
have a direct and financial and indus
trial interest in all that concerns che
government railway.
“Naturally the people who must de
pend upon the development of the rail
road to earn them a living and to rea
lize on their investments would not bo
shouting for Wickersham or for Mr.
Hughes if there was a single doubt
regarding the future policy of the rail
road.
“In fact,” continued Mr. Herron,
“Democratic orators and spellbinders
are simply wasting their time and
campaign money in trying to get any
votes away from Wickersham in our
neck of the woods."

REPORT TEES
OE THRU
ARM DISTRICT
At the head of Cook Inlet, Alaska, is
a triangular area defined on the south
by Tumagain Arm, on the north and
west by Knik Arm and on the east by
rugged, unexplored mountains and
glacier-filled valleys. This area was
examined in 1915 by a party from the
United States geological survey, de
partment of the interior, in charge of
S. R. Capps, by whom a report has
been prepared. This report, which is
entitled, “ The Tumagain-Knik Re
gion, Alaska,” has recently been pub
lished by the survey as Bulletin 642-E.
It furnishes information regarding
the general geographic features of the
region and its geology and the min
eral resources. Concerning the min
eral resources the report stated:
“The mineral resources of the Turn
again-Knik region that have so far
received the attention of miners and
prospectors are the gold placers and
the gold quartz ledges. Prom 1896 to
1898 a large number of placer claims
were staked on the streams tributary
to Tumagain Arm from the north and
on a few of these claims, notably those
on lower Crow creek, mining has been
carried on each year since. The en
tire output of placer gold has been de
rived from the Tumagain arm slope
of the mountains. In 1915 some pla
cer claims were staked on tributaries
of lower Knik arm, but none of these
have yet been demonstrated to contain
workable ground. Development work,
on gold quartz lodes has also been con
fined largely to the Tumagain Arm
basin, although a few claims in the
valley of Peters River and in the up
per basin of Eagle river have received
attention. In 1915 no gold had been
produced from any of the gold quartz
lodes.”
Business is steadily increasing with
Bjornson & Ganton, so they have se
cured additional help—a first-class
tailor who arrived on the Alameda.
