Suppose he owns a 160-acre farm valued at $100 per acre and this firm is mortgaged for $8,000. The liquidation of that mort gage besides making a living for the family depends on him.

Alaska was a wonderful mining district, and is still a wonder. But the thing that caused the great rush to the northland was the find of placer gold and the firing of the hopes of men who knew little of the mining game with the desire for quick wealth. After that first rush and the gathering to the till of the millions that had been washed from the ledges through ages of time, Alaskan mining settled down to a The more matter-of-fact business, same thing is history in practically every mining district.
