At least two dredges will be start ed on their way into the camp this summer and it is possible that this number may be increased before the close of navigation. They will be used on Twin, Pedro and Fairbanks creeks on the property tied up by optii us by G. G. Lemons and W. W. Powell, the English company organ ized by the former having signified ils willingness to go through with the deal. One of the options, that on -f above Pedro, has already been taken up and K. M. Courtnay has received the purchase price. All of the money necessary for the taking up of the other options has arrived and is now in the First National bank. These options will be taken up as sooii as the abstracts caii be completed. Mr. Lemons, Dr. ltobson and Wil liam Turton, the two latter stock holders in the English company, are now on their way to California, where they plan to make arrange ments with the Union Iron Works for the building of a big modern dredge for use on Fairbanks creek. A small dredge will be purchased for use on Twin creek, and it Is possible that it may be in actual operation this summer. The dredge for Fairbanks creek will probably , be shipped to the scene of opera-; , tious over the lirst snows of next i winter. Besides practically all of Pedro j c-eek the company has options cu j Fairbanks creek from 5 above to 12 above inclusive, except the upper half of 7; on Nos. 1, 2, 3, and 4 Moose creek, a tributary of Fair-, banks creek and on Twin creek from ! No. 1 to No. 5. These options expire I' In the early fall but it is probable j' ! that most of them will be taken up1 much earlier as all of the money is ' here and the company can thereby , get a discount. • The authority for the statement in regard to the plans of the com- < pany is Attorney John Dillcn, who ' has charge of its affairs. He states emphatica'ly that there is nothing < now to hinder the deal from going \ through as the company is compos- , ed of some of the richest men in ' England, and the funds at its ccm j mand are ample to swing very much i larger operations. He also states J that the company Is anxious not ‘ alone to get hold of dredge proposi- i tions but will be ready to take hold cf quartz mines just as soon as i they have been fully demonstrated, j Dupree Lance, the engineer of the , company, who arrived about three < weeks ago, has finished his report j to the company, after thoroughly . testing the ground, and the report j is thoroughly satisfactory. He will j remain here to complete the ar- < rangements for receiving the dredg- j es when they arrive. 4 New Shipment Over-the-Ice Eggs j at Peoples. * 4 GOVERNMENT TAKES HAND. OTTAWA.
