WILLOW CREEK
LOOKING'AHEAD
10 GOOD YEAR
Due to faith, hope and perserver
ance by the prospector and Eastern
dollars, the famous Willow creek
camp is rapidly coming into its own
and substantiating all predictions,
says a recent issue of the Anchor
age. Times. The eyes of the mining
world have turned towards Willow
creek and the men with money have
seen the light- Closely following
the important deal closed recently
for the Gold Cord quartz property
comes another one of similar im
portance.
A deal has been closed for the
Miller-Bartholf properey on Craigey
i creek and what is more to the point
the actual cash changed hands. W.
F. Rock, of Denver, and W. S. Horn
ing, of Willow creek purchased a
j interest in four claims from Dave
i Miller and Charles Bartholf and the
! four men are now equal owners in
the property. The discovery was
1 made last September and the claims
: are located on Craigy creek, about
two miles south of the Gold Bullion
mine.
i The prosepect is one of the best
in the district and the partners will
spend several thousand dollars de
j veloping the property this fall and
; winter. They are prepared to instal
a stamp mill and are making ar
1 rangements for improvements and
developments on a large scale for
next season.
Mr. Rock is from a gold mining
i country and has considerable ex
■ perience in the mining game in
! Cripple creek and other Colorado
camps.
We must conquer the whims of
our own appetites before we can
hope to conquer the German menace.
