THE RICHEST ORE.
The, ore sent down from the Stew
art river and recently tested at the
Selby smelting works in this city,
says the San Francisco Call, ,was
-richer than any auriferous rock that
is known to have been produced by
the most famous of the old Alaskan
' mines. Four hundred pounds of it
yielded 731.25 in gold, or at the
rate of $3,656 25 per ton. This, of
course, was selected rock, but with it
came the announcement that there is
avast abuniancc in that region of
low-grade ore. Supposing the ore to
-be no better than that which is mak
ing the Tread well's owners rich, the
S3 kind, and the future of the Stew
art river country ought to be as
sured, providing fuel for smelters
and labor for production are not too
dear.
The Stewart river is one of the
many streams, like the Pelly, the Big
Salmon, the Hootalinqua and the
Klondike, that flow into the Yukon
from the east. It is highly signifi
cant of the probable source of the
placer gold that all these rivers form
on the watershed of mountains that
are set down on the maps either as
the Rockie3 or the Coast range, and
which seem to be formed by a phys
ical union Of the two systems. These
mountains, which are treasure-houses
in the United States, Mexico and
South America, may easily reach
their richest phase of gold formation
in the far North. Why not? At
any rate, whatever gold they contain
Las lain undistured since the begin
ning of recorded time. Neither
King Solorron's miners, who searched
for the yellow metal in South Africa,
nor the Mound Builders, Aztecs and
Incas of other still-exploited regions,
have ever meddled with the gold de
posits of the far North. "What
treasure was put there stayed there,
and it remains to await the pioneer
pick and blast.
After the Yukon afHuents have
been all filed upon, if not before,
there is certain to be a careful quest
f the mountain chains for good rock.
It is there where capital will most
exploit itself and where we may look,
if at all, for the permanent centers of
Northwestern prosperity beyond the
American border. Within Alaska
less is known, though the presence of
nuggets on the west-side Yukon
creeks indicates that the detached
ranges there are by no means barren
of good ore. But on the basis of
discoveries so far made, the North
west territory has the call.
The death ot Admiral John L.
"Worden, which occurred in Wash
ington Monday, brings to mind a ro
mantic and thrilling incident of the
late civil war. It was Admiral Wor
den who commanded the Monitor in
ber famous fight with the Confeder
ate ram Mcrrimac m Hampton Roads
March 9, 18G2. No single occur
rence of the war thrlled the people
as did the outcome of this singular
contest. Every schoolboy knows
the story, how the creation of Eric
son's brain withstood the terrific on
slaughts of the Confederate Merrimac
and saved the capitol from impend
ing danger. Worden was one of the
fourteen heroes who made the United
Stales navy great by their achieve
ments, none of which were greater in
point of interest than the victory of
the little Monitor on that memorable
march day. The art of naval con
struction was changed from that
time; on, and the Monitor type be
came a recognized feature in all
naval construction. The doughty
little, vessel, which Worden com
manded, found its resting place be-
neath the ocean's waves, and by the
death of its brave commander passes
away an Interesting figure in the
great conflict. Sheridan's ride',
Pickett's charge at Gettysburg, Far
ragut at New Orleans, were among
the thrilling incidents of the war,
but none surpassed in interest the
achievement of, the hero just now
gone to rest. He served his country
well, and the nation honored him.
The Spaniards, it is said, have
adopted a new policy, and will seek
to win the Cubans by bribing their
leaders. It is too'late in the fight
for such a plan to succeed. The
Cubans are too near success 1o sell
out for paltry dollars, and besides
they may have read the story of
Benedict Arnold and how miserably
his treachery paid him.
