Where are they?
Can you tell right at this moment where to find your
bonds, stock certificates, insurance policies and other valu
able papers, often needed in a hurry? Perhaps they are
in your desk drawer—or they may be in your office safe
—or possibly lying carelessly around the house.
If your valuable papers are in any of these places there
is a risk of loss as well as uncertainty of quickly finding
them when needed. But if they are in one of our safety
deposit boxes you are a ways certain of their location.
They are accessible to you instantly, and to you alone and
they are safe from fire, theft and carelessness.

AL GUINAN ADVOCATES
ROAD FROM RUBY TO
OPEN UP KUSXOKWIM
A1 Guinan, who left Tocotna a few
weeks ago for the Outside, while in
Anchorage accorded the Daily Alas
kan of that city an interview on mat
ters pertaining to the Kuskokwim,
from which the following is extract
ed:
“Mr. Guinan said that the Kusko
kwim mining region is a big coun
try, with Immense deposits of low
grade gravel, which cannot be suc
cessfully worked on a big scale on
account of the high cost of transpor
tation. What is needed, in the opin
ion of Mr. Guinan, to make this one
of the finest mining sections of the
Territory, is a good wagon road from
Ruby to Tocotna and McGrath, con
necting transportation with the Yu
kon and Kuskokwim. This would not
only be a tremendous help to the
prospectors and operators, but would
also open up a fine section of coun
try for tourists, as well as give men
with capital who are interested in
mining a chance to see the resources
of this great jnining country.
“At present it costs $130 a ton for
freight from Seattle to the ground
where the dredges are operating. The
building of this road from Ruby to
Tocotna and McGrath would also be
a great benefit to the Alaska Rail
road, said Mr. Guinan. The railroad
steamers from Nenana to Holy Cross
now stop at Ruby en route, and with
the wagon road built into the Kus
kokwim region it would mean added
freight and passengers along the Al
aska Railroad and the river boats.”

ard, handles cigars and tobaccos, and
would be glad to meet his many
friends at any hour day or night,

ALASKA TO HAVE
A MINING BUREAU
WMevrread development «»f min
ing properties in the northwest and
Alaska may be expected soon, ac
cording to a statement last week
from the Alaska Department of
the Seattle Chamber of Commerce.
The Alaska Department is direct
ing the formation of a mining
bureau, announcement of which
was made recently. The Chamber
reports that mining men have shown
great interest in the proposed
bureau.
“A sufficient improvement has
been noted in metal mining invest
ments and development,” the state
ment of the Alaska Department
declares. “More prospectors are
going into the hills and mining
men everywhere are looking for
properties. It is highly desirable
to aid in the development of the
tremendous mineral resources of
the northwest by bringing together
the prospector and claim owner
and investor and developer, to
discourage ‘wild-catting’ which costs
thousands of dollars and invaluable
time. By a well organized mining
bureau we hope to provide a means
of developing mining properties in
a substantial, intelligent and well
ordered way, taking into con
sideration all the factors that make
for success.”
The survey of mining made by
the Alaska Department shows that
the production of gold has steadily
declined until the quantity con
sumed in the arts of sciences far
exceed the annual output. Silver
production has declined, it is point
ed out, while the demand for lead
is far beyond the supply.
KETCHIKAN’S PRIZE-WINNING
HOSTELRY WILL OPEN ITS
DOORS ON DECEMBER FIRST
The Ingersoll Hotel, which has
been in the process of construction
since the conflagration which ruined
the Revilla Hotel some time ago is
taking on the finishing touched which
come in daubs by the village decora
tors. The exterior is now finished
and with slight touches to the in
terior the new hotel, which is con
sidered to be the finest in the terri
tory will open its doors some time
next week.
Many stores will take space in the
spacious lobby, and all decorations
and carpentry work ha3 been done
under the guidance of those who will
occupy quarters. By December 1 it
is hoped to have the entire building
furnished and tenants displaying their
wares to the public, and the apart
ed death was due to acute apoplexy.
