Lituya Placers
Too Spotted to
Pay, Says Miner
(Juneau Empire)
A. S. LeNneau, of Juneau, has re
turned from Lituya bay, on the El
Nido and reports that the miners of
I that section are not making enough
to pay for their grub-take. The pla
cer diggings there are very poor and
: this winter the place will be deserted.
“The sands are spotted. A miner
! may strike a spot and take out a cou
ple of ounces and then the sands will
| become barren again. There is no
1 lead and no gravel to work,” he said.
“I do not think there will be a miner
in the district this winter as everyone
I talked with signified their intentions
of coming out.
“I am not knocking the district
when I say there is nothing there
which will pay to work. There is
plenty of gold but it is so widely scat
tered that it cannot be worked in pay
ing quantities without expensive ma
chinery. I don’t want to see any poor
fellow ‘blow in’ his money for a grub
stake to go in there and then get the
worst of it.
“The diggings where I was located
were back nine miles from the beach
and there is no means of transporta
tion except a man’s own back. By the
time supplies are carried in a man
must dig gold pretty fast to break
even.”
Mr. LeNneau joined Mrs. LeNneau
and daughter here and will remain in
Juneau for some time. George An
derson came in from there at the
same time and corroborates the state
ments made by Mr. LeNneau.

Things in Nature
Are Perverse in
Case of Many
Several years ago a strong-limbed
lad was called from the soft influence
of the “Manana” country to the rig
ors of Alaska’s winters. He came
fresh from the fields of flowers and
fruit and sunshine where he had
spent the better part of ten years in.
the open on the great cattle ranges
and in the hills of Mexico looking for
gold. He came from the life that
knows no fear, no conventionality
and no God save honor and truth.
He was a strong- virile young man
and the red blood of Highland Scotch
ancestors ran riot in his veins; crav
ed action and life and he was no
stranger to hardships and danger.
He came full of hope to this north
land where all of these things are
supposed to live and thrive; to the
land that has been pictured as being
free and untrammelled, where every
day a man lives his life as it comes
and questions not the doing of his
fellow men.
The unfairness of things in this
life are apparent and examples are j
seen every day. Every man has his
vocation, his calling, but what is
more ridiculous than to see a cow
boy making hay, or a typical pros
pector seated at a seven-course din
ner?
It is not in the nature of events
and it is also pathetic that this young
man of action who has done things
that count, who has lived the life of a 1
cowboy, an engineer, a prospector
and who has faced danger in many
forms but always with the smile on
his lips and ever a gentleman should j
be compelled to ask the sterotyped I
question heard in the cross road
towns as in the cities, “What size do i
you wear?”
