f I PERMANENT MINES
OF THE NORTH
' Judge Wiun, of Juneau, Alnska, in
! the vicinity of which city arc now
I some of the largest stamp mills in the
'? world, says that there has been enough
1 ore prospected and proved in the dis
,l trlct to keep all of the present mills,
| great as tlxey are, in operation for a
' hundred years. He thinks, and thinks
> rightly, that such a showing as this is
convincing proof that Juneau is to be
1 a permanent city, with prospects of
becoming even a great one.
The same number of this newspaper
which contains this interview with
Judge Winn also has a story from a
correspondent at Soward, Alnska, of
I a recont Quartz discovery by prospec
tors in the Cache creek district of the
Susitna of a quartz ledge of extraor
dinary richness, some large samples
of which have been taken out.
In the vicinity of Seward there are
I1 several small mills at work on ledges
which have been uncovered and which
are producing handsomely. It is ex
pected that some at least cf these
j properties will earn enough with their
| present small equipment to be devel
1 oped to large proportions without re
! quiring the investment of more capl
! tal.
All of these things show conclusive
! ly that the real mining resources of
I |
Alaska are hardly touched with the op
ening of the new placer fields. Placer
mines are worked out within a rela
tively brief period of time. Hard rock
mining is a matter of many years, oven
of generations.
The real mining development of Al
aska on a permanent basis is but com
mencing. With a railroad or two to open
up the interior and bring transporta
tion charges down to the point that ma
chinery and supplies can be taken in
readily, the quartz mines of Alaska
will give employment, and permanent
, employment, to many times the num
i ber of men that the placer camps ever
used during their periods of greatest
boom. And there will be many new
placer camps opened in that Territory
in the future, as well as quartz prop
erties.?Seattle Post-Intelligencer.
! C. K. FORNER FAVORS
SEA WALL FOR JUNEAU
, JUNEAU. Jan. 14?To the Editor:
? A concrete wall should be built along
the channel Bide of the city's water-:
front and filled in with earth or tail
ings. . This could be done without In
terference to traffic. The surface
should be macadamized, or which is
preferable, either finished with asphal
tum or laid with brick, to meet the de
mands for a permanent embarcadero.
Very truly yours,
C. K. FORNER.
