STEADY STREAM OF GOLD
Somewhere near the Yukon in the Birch Creek
country there will be a good-sized town one of these
days if the plans of that Dutch syndicate are carried
through to put a number of dredges in that district. An
expenditure of several million dollars will be required
there just as was the case at Fairbanks during the pre
patory operations of the Fairbanks Exploration Co.
These things auger well for the Interior that is
sending out an ever-increasing stream of gold. When
one casts up the number of dredges already operating
at Nome, Fairbanks, Hot Springs, Ophir, Iditarod, Fish
Creek, Kuskokwim and other places, the hydraulicing
operations and the individual placer miners, it becomes
apparent that Alaska will soon lead the States in her to
tal production, having already achieved second place to
California.
The days of the boom camps have passed temporar
ily but there will be other stampedes where the boys
and girls will again make whoopee.
Americanism: Senators who issue campaign litera
ture at government expense investigating candidates
who pay for theirs.
