ROAD TO COPPER FIELDS Rail of th Copper Rivtr and North west. Will B. Laid to tht Mouth of th Chitina by July, Whin lm m.n.ly Rich Mineral Arta Will Bt Accessible A Dramatio Chapter In Railroad Construction. NEW STAMPEDES IN ALASKA NEXT YEAR Predictions of Great Activity In the Iditarod Placers, the Chitina Copper Region and Sushitna's Gold Quartz Belt Three differeut uilnlug stampedes, each distinct In character, are predict ed for Alaska next summer, and one of tbera Is on In the depth of this pres ent winter. To the Idltarod placer dig gings men are now tolling over the now trails In a wild chase for a hare of the undoubted riches first found there last season. Into the great copper belt of the Chitina basin there will be another Influx of miners and prospectors next Jul; when the Cop per River and Northwestern railroad reaches the outer edge of the district. Still another group, the gold quarti miners, will flock to Kenai peninsula and the Susbltna valley as soon as the snow has gone to follow up the recent Moose pass and Willow creek strikes. It would seem then that Alaska has flnally advanced to the quartz mining stage, and to this may be added In l'JIO coal mining In the Bering rlrer fields. This change really marks a most im portant milestone In the development of the northern territory. Placer min ing produces much gold, but It Is not a permanent resource, does not make a permanent population or even warrant, a a rule, the building cf railroads. Quart mining does. The placer fields of the Idltarod and lnnoko rivers, which are said to be larger lu extent even than the Klondike fields, are sure to yield many large fortunes. If the Held proves as rich as the present showing would Indicate the district will bare a population of 10,000 within a twelvemonth. Already there are 2,000 men where a year ago there were hardly a dozen. Tbe excitement re sulting will be great, and the romantic story of the Klondike and Nome will be repeated. But It would be most ex ceptional If ten years from now should see any Important placer mining going on In that now almost unprospected region. It will simply be worked out It is different with the Chitina cop per reilau. There, la. a. known belt of I mineralized rook 1L miles long and eight or ten llllIM wide, mid. though this bell may niso he said to be not half prospected, there are thirty-five or more groii or claims on it One or two ut these have been so far de veloped that there Is assurance of a large ore supply Tor generations. So sure Is the tutuiv ot this region that capital is spending Jliunti.tHUi on railroad from the sea ''H0 miles Inland to lap it Yet men- is every possibil ity that dozens ot other properties still uuknowu may ispim that one or two. The Chltltin region had never tH-eu eu tered except by a few miners, en gineers and Indians, so that w bou the railroad, uuw Km miles Inland, reaches the mouth of the Chit Urn river, thirty five miles farther, next summer, prac tically au entirely uew country, the future activity of which Is assured be forehand, will he opened up. At pres ent Ingress Is possible only by long trail trips over a very rough country, a couditlou that will be changed almost In a flash within a few mouths. Tbe result to those who kuow what ploueer conditions are is appareut. Another uew mining field that gives great promise of attracting large num bers of pioneers next summer Is that north of Seward, on Keual peulnsula. This Is old placer couutry. lu which some of the mother lodes have recent ly been discovered and are proving very rich. This couutry is still very difficult of access beyond Cook Inlet, as there are not even government trails, but a railroad Is on Its way in land to the Matanuska coal fields, and tbe Alaska road commission has prom ised next summer to build a trail northward In this valley and across the mountains to the headwaters of the KuskcHjuim on the way to the Idltarod diggings. This will give great impetus to both quartz and placer mining along the line and will allow the development of several quartz propositions. The railroad out of Seward already crosses the peulnsula seventy miles and with new government trails has this last year made available much gold quartz country of great promise. On the whole, the most conservative investigator must admit that Alaska's greatest mining days are of tbe future and that the mineral wealth prodnc tlon will be In the atendy ascendant from now onward.

Phones, Office 1121, Residence 1833 525 Main Street By CARLYLE ELLIS. On Its second birthday the Copper River aud Northwestern rail road, of which Cordova, Alaska, Is the termi nus, finds Itself stretched 100 miles in land up the Copper river. Ity next July, It is now practically assured, the road will have reached the mouth of tbo Chitina river, where It branches. beading for tbe Uennlcott copper mines, fifty-eight miles to the cast ward. The road's arrival at the Chitina means that the great Kotslna-Chltlmi copper regtoti is finally made easily available for mining and prospecting This will be an event of considerable Importance In Alaskuu history, tlx- ceptlug Its two great coal fields, this Is the richest known mineral field in the territory. Its area Is very large, and the opportunities for prosevtors and small operators there are utmost unlimited. It Is absolutely safe to ex pect spectacular developments at once. In all of this Cordova Is destined to play a conspicuous part, aud the ixteen-moutb-old buby metropolis to preparing for It with quite amazing energy. With tbe. Copper Klver rail road being driven luland by the power ful Morgan-Guggenheim syndicate to tap the coal and copper fields and the vast golden Interior, Cordova becomes Inevitably the Alaskau gateway par excellence, and for sucb a future she was chosen. Tbe essentials for an Alaskan gate way are a harbor, a town site, a rail road route aud proved resources to run tbe road to. Cordova bas all four, each of more or less excellence, and her railroad has now passed the hundredth mile. Tbe combination is a richly promising one. Road to Coppr, Coal and Oold. The harbor, though not large. Is ex cellent and susceptible of unlimited de velopment, while Immediately avail able for ordinary tonnage without dredging. The town site ts a tundra covered, rocky aud irregular hillside. offering most unpromising material, but which bas yielded astonishingly well to vigorous treatment. The rail road route, while containing some of the worst obstacles to construction ever encountered, is rapidly pushing forward despite these ditllcultles and reaching out to the copper regluu aud tbe coal fields of Bering river as well as those vast Interior regions, tbe riches of which apart from plucer gold are still but guessed at. Almost every foot of Cordova's streets bad either to be blasted out of solid rock, cut out of four feet or more of mushy tundra or built over the tundra. Tbe main streets, lu places cut through thirty feet of bill, in oth ers had to be built up as much. Tbe cross streets climb a steep Irregular rock hill. Over all there was heavy timber. It Is typical of Alaska and tbe Alas kans who have built and are making Cordova that these dillicultles should have been so lightly regarded and so valiantly met In her first year of life the baby town has been making sucb Improvements as usually beglu to be planned when a city bas reached the 0,000 mark and feels the weight of wealth. She Is still In swaddling clothes, ragged, unkempt. uuUnlshed, but lusty with youth. Tbe rapidity of ber growth Is amazing In the year she bas boused a thousand souls, built churches, schools, clubs, warehouses and shops that would be creditable In a large city. Sbe bas fitted herself with electric light, water supply, sewers and a telephone system and developed a complete municipal organ ization. She una also attracted to her self two newspapers, each of which receives a daily cable service from the outside, giving tbe cream of the world's news, and special service from each of the Alaskan cities connected by wire or wireless Seward. Vuldes. Fairbanks, Juneau, Skagway, Ketchi kan, St. MIcliael'B and Nome ' Region of Opportunities. These are some of Cordova's external Indications of vitality. Even more significant Is the spirit of her people, the dauntless adventure loving, chance taking spirit of the foreigner. They are opportunists all und wide eyed to the opportunity at their door. As 1 have said, Cordova's reason for being Is the Copper Klver and North western railroad. Without the rail road or the hope of It she would quickly ceu.se to exist. Her neighbor, Katalla-on-the-Sea. which blossomed when two railroads made a false start from there, still lives, though In great ly reduced circumstances. In the hope of their return. Meanwhile the millions from below are pouring through Cordova In sup plies nnd materials and cash for the forcing through of the railroad to the famous Bonanza- mine aud neighbor ing properties In the region around the head of thp Chitina river. The build ing of this road Is one of the most daring railroad enterprises since tbe Rocky mountains were first penetrat- eu. iue ixipper river valley, up which the road must run. Is notorious for Its violent winter windstorms, Its shifting, uncertain, slit falls; racing, vagabond streams; deep snow; rocky, slide scoured canyons and advancing glaciers. The river Itself, the only large stream emptying from the Alas kan Interior to the southward, is a turbulent, slit ludun. Ice bearing tor rent In which no man can swlrn twen ty strokes. At one place It runs be tween great living glaciers that dis charge millions of tons of Ice Into its current each day of the summer months, and here the railroad must run too.

Two year ago not month tha first lot of material and supplies arrived In Cordova. Since then construction ha been pushed forward with almost uu believable uiiHiiontmu In these two years a permanent road of n high standard has been completed to the mouth of the Tlokol river, 102 miles from Cordova.

Transportation Facilities Only Needed to Open Up Enormous Forest. Another valuable Item baa beeu add ed to Alaska's growing list of uudevel oped resources. Itoccut eiperl exami nation of the timber in the Sushltna basin has continued the belief that It is pulp wood of a high quality. The timber Is poplar. Cottonwood aud spruce, but little ot which Is of com mercial value for lumber. The laud on which this growth stands Includes the 3.500,0(X) or more aires estimated a grazing aud farming laud and on which bouiesteudbis recently began This area, distributed among the varl ou valley of tbe hiislu. is for the most part covered Kith a luxuriant growth of wild redtop grass, with little underbrush and only a moderate stand ot Umber. It Is obvious that with reasonably convenient market for pulp wood aud water transportation, of which there la much, the cost of clear Ing these lauds might be greatly re duced If not made a profit by tbe sale of the Umber us a byproduct On Keuul peninsula, along the line of the seventy mile Alaska Central rail road, alone there are many thousands of acres of available pulp wood, aud this will be increased with uluiost every mile of tbu road's extension to ward the .Mutnuuska coul fields. The value of this supply of pulp wood In American territory and the pnictlcabll Ity of utilizing it was first pointed oui by Levi Chubburk of the department of agriculture, who visited the region last summer. Still more recently Sena tor George J. Italrd of Canada went In to tbe Matanuska coal fields and was greatly Impressed by the vast area of pulp woods as well as tbe splendid grazing lands they stood on. He pre dicts tbe rapid settlement of this re gion by farmers and cattlemen. TONS OF ALASKA COPPER. Report of Geologist Brooks 8how Enormous Yield This Year.
