CLUB WILL TALK
! PLANS TO BOOST
OUTPUT OF GOLD
One of the chief questions that
I will be discussed at the regular
weekly meeting of the N'enana Com
! mercial club tonight will be the cold
I
; bonus plan which is now being ad
' vocated by the American Mining
congress as a means of reviving the
gold mining industry throughout Al
aska and the United States gen
erally. The American Mining con
gress has gone into the matter in a
very thorough and business-like man
ner and is now appealing to the
various gold mining districts for
funds to assist in the campaign to
get the desired relief,
j The question is one which con
cerns vitally every section of Alas
ka, and in order that the public
of Nenana may have an opportunity
to participate in tonight's discussion,
a general invitation is extended to
attend the meeting after the routine
business has been disposed of. C om
missioner R. S. McDonald, who has
the distinction of having been the
first man in Alaska to advocate the
gold bonus plan, long before the
matter was taken up by the Ameri
can Mining congress, and who has
made a very thorough study of the
proposition, will be on hand tonight
to explain the plan and to answer
such questions as may be asked.
Another matter that probably will
occupy the attention of the duo
tonight is the wage question, it be
ing expected that the special com
mittee appointed to gather data
will have a report ready for con
sideration by the club at this meet
ing.
The meeting will start at the
usual hour—eight o'clock—and the
doors will be thrown open to visi
tors at nine for the gold bonus dis
cussion. to which all interested are
invited.

One of the Brower mail stages
is enroute to Fairbanks today, north
of Donnellys, with a consignment
of mail that has been on the road !
from t’hitina fourteen days. The.
mail must reach Fairbanks today ]
or the contractor will be subject j
to a severe penalty, but the belief |
is general jn the upper town that
it will bo nest to impossible to land
the shipment on time. The mail
may arrive tomorrow, it is stated, i
but there is not a chance to make ■
delivery today.
Fairbanksans are unable to ac- ;
count for the great delay of the '
mail. The supposition is that the 1
shipment was abandoned somewhere .
along the trail, to be picked up by;
another rig later. In any event, the ,
time required to land the mail at j
its destination is too long to suit ,
Fairbanksans. and complaints are
becoming louder and more frequent
daily.
