CARL WHITHAM, WHITE
RIVER OPERATOR, IN CITY
Carl Whitham, who arrived on one
of the last trains from his mining
properties in the Nabesna and White
river districts, left.on the Yukon to
spend the winter in Seattle and other
'■oast states. Mr. Whitham states
that mining in his district has been
hampered greatly by dry weather, but
that considerable gold will be taken
out the coming season. About four
teen men will winter in the White
river district. While in Cordova, Mr.
Whithajn emphasized the need of a
good road to his district by way of
Gulkana.
“This road would eliminate going
over the dangerous Skolai glacier/'
said Mr. Whitham. “It would go over
one small pass, thence by easy grades
and a flat country to the Nabesna,
Shushana and White rivers.”
He stated that three partners on
Ladue creek were sinking holes to
bedrock, and at the present time are
down 65 feet, with indications of
good pay.
About twenty peoole will winter in
the Shushana district this season. Mr.
Whithaip is heavily interested in the
White river district, having two pla
cer and in quartz claims, which at
the present time are dormant owing
to the high cost of freighting sup
plies in to the properties.
ANCHORAGE COUNCIL MAY
ELECT A NEW MAYOR
At the regular meeting of the An
chorage city council, the resignation
of Mayor M. J. Conroy will be pre
sented by City Clerk Fred Spach.
Mayor Conroy announced his inten
tion of resigning at the last meeting
in September, due to his continued
absence during the winter in the
states.
Candidates for the position of ma
yor of the city of Anchorage are no
ticeable by their absence. Rumor has
not named any particular man as the
favorite. From all indications Sher
man and Shonbeck of the council
men would be the most likely of elec
tion. However, it is understood that
neither of these men care particular
ly about accepting the position. Pro
bably, in the course of the election
a dark horse will be chosen fi’om
outside th* council.
