OLDTIMER GIVES REVIEW
OF CONDITIONS IN EAGLE
Gold mining, which is the chief
industry in the Eagle district, has
revived somewhat lately, according
to John B. Powers, former deputy
U. S. marshal, and with the opening |
of the Government railroad, carry
ing with it the promise of a lighter
burden to bear in delving for the
precious metal, prospecting is be
ing undertaken on a slightly more
extensive scale than heretofore.
When the expected generous freight j
tariff on mining machinery and sup-1
plies goes into effect, and the long j
sought-for relief is absolutely with-!
in the grasp of miners and prospect
ors, the industry in that district,
will be given a tremendous impetus,
and will take on a new lease of
life, he thinks.
Among- the principal mining oper
ators there at present is the July
Creek Placer Company, with Van
derveer, of Seedro Wooley, and as
sociates at its head. During the sum
mer of 1920 this concern put in a
hydraulic plant on July Creek, about
50 miles below the town of Eagle,
employing about ten men in their
operations. They now have four
men prospecting on Washington
Creek and two men prospecting on
Charlie River, about 75 miles north
of the town of Eagle. The rest of the
crew are cutting wood and trap
ping in the neighborhood, awaiting
a favorable opportunity to operate
! the hydraulic plant profitably.
In the Seventymile country—the
Seventymile river flows into the
Yukon on its left limit about 20
miles below the town of Eagle-—
mining is in progress on Fox gulch,
about 20 miles above its confluence
with the Seventymile, a hydraulic
outfit, owned and operated by Bob,
Steel, employs about three men.
On Crooked Creek, another of
its tributaries, a hydraulic plant!
owned by Ott & Shield and Frolich1
& Kummer, was operated during;
last summer, employing a crew of i
six men besides the owners mention-.
ed. They have much ground that
can be worked for years to come.
Just above them, on Brokenneck 1
Creek. George Rundle is operating
alone by the old methods. A. H.
Turnbull, on Baring Creek, and C.
F. Yost, on Nugget Gulch, are each
operating a small hydraulic plant,
employing six men. They have a i
good outfit and fairly rich ground
to work. “Nimrod” Robertson, or
Flume Creek, is working alone by
the old method. On the Seventymile
proper. Bill Russell, on Curtiss
Bar. and Axel Johnson and partners
on Big Bear Bar. are taking out a
little money.
On American Creek, which flows'
into the Yukon at Eagle, and which
has been a producer since 1891,
mining operations have been going
on every summer during the last 20

They have been doing a lot of

work.

it is expected that the output next
summer will be large.
CHILDREN BUSY PREPARING ;
