A. Keefer, Thomas DuPont and J.
W. Lenahan, who have taken an op
tion on the Ramsay-Rutherford mine,
and who made a trip to the property
last week have left for their homes in
California. Before leaving they let a
contract for the freighting of a large
quantity of supplies to the property,
and purchased three horses from the
Valdez Transfer company with which
to do the hauling. The work of
freighting the supplies will start at
ed to Mike Knowles. The develop
once, the contract having been award
ment work will be in charge of Chris
Pedersen. This property was worked
for several years prior to the war,
but was closed down following its
outbreak, due to lack of miners and
the greatly increased cost of labor and
supplies. Later the property was tak
en over under lease and bond by Mr.
Pedersen, who operated it on a small
scale for two or three years and with
! excellent results. A year ago George
H. Powell became associated with Mr.
Pedersen, and this spring went to Cal
ifornia to finance the property for
large scale production. Instead of
financing it, however, he sold the
property outright, receiving a substan
tial cash payment. Among the im
provements contemplated by the new
owners is the installation of a hydro
electric plant for power purposes.
