ASSUMING SHAPE
Arrangements for the excursion
| and barbecue to be held under the
auspices of the N'enaaa Commercial
club on Sunday were practically
completed at a special meeting of
the organization last night, and
there is reason to believe the out
ing will be enjoyed by a very large
number The barbecue will be the
| first ever held in Interior Alaska
jand the excursion will afford Ne
ranaites their first opportunity to
ride to the end of steel since the
bridge at Nenana Crossing was
washed out early last spring.
The plan, as agreed upon last
|night, is to leave town on a special
J excursion train at ten o’clock Sat
urday night, arriving at the end of
jsteel, or thereabouts, sufficiently ear
jly to permit those of the ladies who
j desire to leave the train, to spend
ja considerable part of the night at
the Singleton roadhouse. There will
be bunks in the cars, for all, how
ever. The excursionists will break
fast at the Lignite roadhouse and
spend the day in any manner that
pleases them—fishing, hunting, vis
jiting the Bums mine and other
■ points of interest in that locality,
or watching the railroad builders at
their work.
! The barbecue will be held early in
j the afternoon, in the midst of sur
i roundings ideal for picnicking. Then
[there will be another feed before
'the excursionists start home.
I The whole charge for the outing,
j including the barbecue and other
! meals at Lignite, and the ride out
jand back, will be S4 for grown-ups.
| The children will be the special
[guests of Mr. Singleton, who has
[announced that he will feed all the
| youngsters free.
! In order that it may be known
j definitely in advance how many
I will make the trip, lists have been
placed around town for signatures,
each signer being expected to de
posit $4, for which an excursion
ticket will be issued.
A committee consisting of Billy
Coutts and Jesse Brown was ap
pointed last night to have entire
! charge of the excursion, while the
. barbecue and the serving of the
other meals at Lignite will be looked
after by Jack Singleton. Mr. Sin
gleton attended the meeting of the
club last night, by invitation, and
assured the members that he would
be able to accommodate any num
ber that might go on the excursion.
An invitation has been sent to
Fairbanks, inviting the people of the
upper town to come down for the
outing, and it is believed a consid
erable number will avail themselves
of the opportunity to see the Lignite
country and enjoy a real old-fash
ioned barbecue.

That Hyder holds the key to the
Portland canal silver, gold, lead and
copper properties is the opinion ex
pressed by Juneau mining experts
returning from an inspection tour of
the district. “The Canadian govern
ment does not want to build a road
from Canadian mining territory to
an American seaport town nor the
American government build a road
from an American seaport town to
a Canadian mining camp,” is the
way George T. Jackson sizes up the
situation.
However, Mr. Jackson says, the
Premier Mining company, controlled j
by Xiell and other Spokane mining!
men, is spending $60,000 in building ;
a sled road from the Premier prop
erty 14 miles inland from Hyder to |
get 2,000 tons of high-grade ore to I
tidewater during the winter months. |
This ore will run from $100 to $1,
000 a ton and is silver sulphides
taken from the Premier property.
The Premier is really the first '
property to develop in the Hyder
district, but is in Canadian terri
tory. Last winter this company
shipped 480 tons of ore at a value
of $350 a ton in silver and gold, j
with a little zinc and lead. The ore j
is native silver sulphides.
The property ha? a 600-foot tun- j
nel driven on the hanging: wall, j
where a high-grade streak five feet
wide will average from $100 to $1,
000 a ton. There are also numer
ous fractures running into the vein
which carry high-grade ore. This
formation has been crosscut for
about 85 feet, which shows five feet i
of high-grade and 80 feet of milling i
ore. The property is 14 miles from j
tidewater at an elevation of 2,000
feet.
Salmon river enters Portland can
al at Hyder and for eleven miles the ;
grade is practically level. The grade
then is sharp and the country high- j
ly mineralized, the ore bodies being ]
first encountered 14 miles up the j
river, running nearly north and 1
south. Four miles due north of the !
Premier group are the "Big Mis- i
souri” and "The Joker.” These two ;
i
properties are side by side and on j
both considerable work has been
done, and a diamond drill is now
working on the "Big Missouri,” j
showing high-grade silver sulphides, j
This formation also shows in nu
merous open cuts on both proper- !
ties. However, there has been no j
work done underground to encoun- i
ter the ledge.
Quite a number of claims have;
been located in a northerly direction I
on Salmon river, but no great!
amount of development work has j
been done. Senator Ronan has an j
option on a group of claims 114
miles north of the "Big Missouri.”
where he has started development
work.
About three miles north of the
"Big Missouri” the "49 Group" has
a showing of high-grade silver ore
in open cuts.

chance for a limited number of
prospectors in the Hyder district,
but the camp is too new and con
ditions adverse to any rush by min
ers or other workers into the dis
trict. Most of the properties are
row in the promotion stage and
many experts are looking over the
district. Until they report or close
options there can be little doing in
the way of actual development
work.
“It will require large capital to 9
I open the district,” said Mr. Jackson
to the Juneau Dispatch, l‘as the
trails are poor, all supplies being
landed at Stewart, towed to Hyder
and sent to the mines by pack train
at a cost of 7 to 15 cents a pound.”
