the senate as its opponents car
ried it on in a drive to defeat
the increase on Cuban raw sugar
levy from 1.76 to 2.20 c per pound.

JOi GILLESPIE
NEED fiUlS
CALLED TO
VETERAN OF NORTHERN STAM
PEDES SUCCUMBS AFTER
MONTH’S ILLNESS
John Gillespie, age 64, local
resident and business man for
the last five years, and one ofj
the Territory’s best known miners j
and prospector, responded to the
“Last Call of the North” at 4:10 ;
o’clock this morning following a j
month’s illness. Pneumonia was j
given as the cause of his death, j
John Gillespie followed practi-1
cally every stampede in Alaska j
since he first arrived in 1896 j
in the Sunrise district. He pros- |
pected and mined there until
1300 joining the Nome rush. A
year was spent in those diggings
then on to Dawson where strikes
electrified the world. He remain
en in Dawson for a season then
crossed over to Valdez and later
back up to the Nizina and into
the Kantishna.
In turn he then prospected and
mined on Valdez Creek, at Ruby,
the Manley Hot Springs region,
then back to Valdez, then to An
chorage. Hyder, the Kanatak oil
fields, then to Nuka bay where
he still held interests, finally
settling here and opening up the
Pioneer Club about two years
ago. During all these years he
had made and lost several fair
size fortunes. It was the lure, not
so much as possesson, of the
game which forever kept him in
the field.
Quiet, assuming and rather a
dry humorist, he leaves a legion
of good friends to mourn his de
parture “Over the Last trail."
To his brother Frank, who also
has been a resident of Seward
for many years, his passing is
a hard blow for they had been
partners since 1902 and were
such, also, in the local business
which has been closed tempor
arily. )
John was born at Keokuk, Iowa i
in 1865; he was a member of !
the Anchorage Igloo, Pioneers of
Alaska, Pending arrival of in
structions from his widow, in
Seattle, no funeral arrangements j
have been made. The remains are j
at the Seward Funeral aPrlor.
Surviving him is Mrs. Gillespie
who has resided in Seattle since
her departure from Alaska about
five years ago; two brothers,
Frank, and Albert who lives at
Spokane, and twro sisters, Mrs.
W. L. Cross of Spokane, and Mrs.
Esther Blakemore of Los An
geles.
