For the same fee, Alaska Oppor
, . ,12 181 h N. E„ Seattle,
which claims to be a “nation-wide
authority on Alaskan employment,"
will provide an “exclusive oppor
;ur.iij booklet” complete with map.
Tl.i- kind of Alaska promotion
is by no means new. The operators
hr.-.e merely taken a leaf or two
from the t ioks of the promoters
n tire Klondike Gold Kush and
brought them up to date.
The l • Gold Rush may have
bu:: partly spontaneous, but a
•lining of lie literature of 1897
and 1893 leaves a strong impres
si( that there was a whole lot of
i. if, . promotional work behind
The Kb r.dik, guide book, of
w: -h their were a great many, is
a prime example. Each one pur
ported to be the “official'’ Guide
jo Hie Klondike and Alaska Gold
Fields.
One such item, published in New
York C'i ■ on July 31, 1897, is
fairly typical of the majority. It
contains 996 pages in which there
is a little information—most of it
of not me to the prospective gold
seeker—and a vast amount of mis
information. There tire a couple
of l ude maps, some pictures of
is r.vdt d steamers heading for Al
. and some .ketches showing
win t a pick, i ; old pan and a
Wo 0 ];•.! < ) ,ok lit
But the real bail was in the
cyc-wilir- accounts of the gold
di“ ill's, which fill many pages.
The pi ,p!e who gave them are all
said to have been aboard the
famed Portland when she arrived
at Seattle with s “ton of gold” on
July 17, 1897.
The Seattle-bound Portland must
have been very nearly as crowded
the Ck.i way-bound steamers,
id Hum doe n’t com to have been
, knocker in the bunch. Some of
i. ;arics are breath-taking, even
at this range. i

Shaw: "This is a great mining
strike, probably the greatest of the
American continent, or in the
world. Some of the pay streaks are
nearly all gold. One thousand dol
lars to the pan is not an uncom
mon thing, and as high as 100 j
ounces have been taken from a
single pan. It is no unusual to see
me n coining in with all the gold
they can carry. I went into one
cabin and counted five five-gallon
oil cans full of gold dust, the re
sult of the work of two men during
the winter, and the dump is not
much more than half worked out.”
Then there was William Stanley,
reported to have brought out $112,
OCC in goW dust and to have had
an interest in claims worlh two
million dollars. He is quoted:
"When I had taken out the last
of the $112,000, I threw down my
piri: ar.d, turning my eyes heaven
ward, said, ‘Good-by, old friend, I
will never pick you up again,’ and
I spoke the truth. I love gold and
I have it, and I will never work
again.”
A modern copy-writer might
equal that, but it is doubtful that
one could draw a more appealing
picture.
Said this ‘‘official'' guide book:
"More than one man obtained $1,
C00 from a single pan, while reports
of yields of $500 and $300 to the
pan are numerous. The average is
said to be $50 to the pan, while
the 49'er in California was well
ii! lied when lie got $3 to the
pan.”
And the lure was not cast for
mm only. For example: “Clarence]
J. Berry is the Barney Barnato of !
the Klondyke. He took $130,000
from the ton dirt of his claims In
lire months and did not have to
his wife even so much as pin |
money. She had a pan of her own. j
She would occasionally take time!
from her sewing and mending to I
drop around to the dump and she i
lifted out $10,000. in her spare ]
:n aments.” e
Or how about this one: “A wom
an of stylish appearance and
haughty demeanor swished her
silken skirts past the admiring of
fice toy in a large Chicago office
recently and extended a primrose i
gloved hand to the stout man who j

had left a year before to go to Al- |

“She told him that before she ]
