ANAHEIM, CALIFORNIA, THURSDAY, APRIL 17, 1902. Editorial Note and Comment Let's see! Wasn't there a man named Steve Kelley, or something of the sort, over toward San Berdoo, who was spoken of for some office or other, now some time back? Fellow had hair long and curly? And was backed by all the purity push? What's become of him? Steve, Steve, wherefore be ye? Strange that one man should have the authority to say that the Orange county delegation should be for this man or that man for Governor, thus early in the campaign, isn't it? But has't Jeems McFadden promised it to Flint? Along with the aid of one Wiekham, who left Orange county between two suns, leaving a lot of mourning creditors behind? If reports be true, Flint will have only one vote in the Orange county delegations—that of Jeems himself, if he goes. But the boys say they aren't going to let him play ball at all this year. When the bubonic plague fake was promulgated at the instigation and expense of certain transportation interests with Pacific Coast terminals in the northwest, who was it that stood between the people of the State and impending ruin? This wicked conspiracy was far reaching in its effect. Eastern dealers in California fruits were compelled to post in their premises placards denying that the fruit came from plague infected California. Travelers shunned the State and business, as is pointed the formal announcement of the candidacy of A. G. Kendall for member of the State Board of Equalization. It says: "The Republicans of San Bernardino county can with good conscience present Mr. Kendall's name for the position which comes as a natural stepping-stone from the office which he has filled so acceptably, because they know that he will bring to the position a knowledge of matters connected with the revenue of the State and a mental equipment that will enable him to discharge its duties, not only with credit to himself and the county which presented his name, as well as the party which will be responsible for his election, but above all, in a way that will best serve the people of his district and of the State by arriving at what, as nearly as may be, is an equal distribution of the burden of taxation. Personally, Mr. Kendall belongs to that throng of substantial easterners who came into Southern California nearly twenty years ago, and in that length of time have made it the wonder of the world for development. He is a Vermonter by birth, 53 years of age, and came to the Golden State by way of Nebraska. He is an orchardist, owning both orange and lemon groves at Ontario, and is thus identified with Southern California's leading industry, and also as a substantial man of affairs." Listen to the Mocking Bird. Santa Ana Bulletin. Last week the ANAHEIM GAZETTE came out in a half-column editorial, brimming over with luscious compliments and delicious flattery, advocating Prof. J. P. Gredey of this city for the office of State Superintendent of Schools, and it positively gushes in every sentence. Now, the Bulletin has no objections, for it really thinks he is about as good COAL RESOURCES OF ALASKA Until the Discovery of Gold in the Klondike, Coal Beds of Yukon Region Attracted Little Attention. Alaska embraces about 600,000 square miles and stretches through nearly 24 degrees of latitude and 50 degrees of longitude. Practically no detailed investigations of any part of this vast territory have been made, and at least third part of its area has not even received preliminary topographic and geologic surveys. Our knowledge of its mineral resources has been compiled and is presented by Alfred Brooks in Part III of the Twenty-second Annual Report of the United States Geological Survey, now in press. The compilation is not from printed sources alone, but is largely from manuscript notes made on the spot by Mr. Brooks himself and by others. Mr. Brooks divides Alaska, for purposes of his report, as follows: Beginning on the south, southeastern Alaska includes the Pacific ocean coastal belt and islands, extending northward to Mount St. Elias and northwestward as to include the Copper river basin. Beginning on the west, southwestern Alaska embraces the Aleutian island; Alaska peninsular and adjacent islands; Kenai peninsular and the Cook inlet region, with the drainage basins of its tributary rivers. The Kuskokwik region lies west of Bristol bay and Coor Inlet and east and south of the Yukon and drains into southeastern Bering sea chiefly through the Kuskokwik river. The eastern part of this region is broken by the Alaskan range of mountains. To the west of these mountains is the broad basin of the Kuskokwik river. A small southern part of this region drains directly into Bering sea by a number of short rivers. The Yukon basin includes a great area lying partly in Alaska and partly in British Northwest Territory and British Columbia. The chief tribesaries of the Yukon are Koyukuk, T When the bubonic plague lake was promulgated at the instigation and expense of certain transportation interests with Pacific Coast terminals in the northwest, who was it that stood between the people of the State and impending ruin? This wicked conspiracy was far reaching in its effect. Eastern dealers in California fruits were compelled to post in their premises placards denying that the fruit came from plague infected California. Travelers shunned the State and business, as is pointed out by the Sacramento News, was paralyzed. The San Francisco Board of Health undertook to stand in with the vicious conspiracy, and were digging up case after case of the plague from the slums of Chinatown until the State Board of Health took a hand. Suddenly the discoveries ceased. The San Francisco doctors could find no more cases, and so confessed. As soon as the State board, having proven that there were no cases of the plague in town, discontinued its joint investigation, the San Francisco doctors immediately renewed their discoveries, and plague victims, dead or alive, began to be reported again. Who was it that stepped in to kill off that assault upon the commerce and industries of the State? Who was it that, with characteristic vigor, appeared upon the scene, directed the State Board of Health to exhaust every one of its faculties to ascertain the truth, conducted a thorough series of tests, and finally put to shame and rout the band of conspirators? The culmination came the other day when Mayor Schmitz of San Francisco removed the offending doctors from office and laid bare their outrageous conduct. The Chronicle and Call commended the Mayor, denounced the charlatans, but carefully omitted all reference to the manly, vigorous action of the man who rescued California from the blight so brutally cast upon it. The people from this may know how much of fairness may be expected from those two newspapers, as well as from the Los Angeles Times, which barks an echoing refrain. And yet these fellows are outspoken in their splenetic attacks upon this man to whom the people of the State are under an everlasting debt of gratitude. Who was it that accomplished these things for this State? Let Col. Otis stand up and answer. Was it not the Governor of this State, whom Otis is viciously assailing? General Shapter denies that he is a candidate for the Republican gubernatorial nomination, but it is not denied that some of his personal friends are making a still hunt in sounding political opinion on the subject. Listen to the Mocking Bird. Santa Ana Bulletin. Last week the ANAHEIM GAZETTE came out in a half-column editorial, brimming over with luscious compliments and delicious flattery, advocating Prof. J. P. Greedey of this city for the office of State Superintendent of Schools, and it positively gushes in every sentence. Now, the Bulletin has no objections, for it really thinks he is about as good material as the party has in this neck of the woods, but we do claim the right to laugh over every joke that comes along our way. The first time Prof. Greeley ran for office was in this county about the year 1889, the year Orange county was organized. We held a grand non-partisan convention, and I had the distinguished honor of presenting his name to the convention as a candidate for County Superintendent of Schools. I did it so brilliantly that he had no opposition, and was nominated by acclamation and elected pretty much the same way. He has held the office ever since, and there is no doubt but that send-off I gave him that time was the best stock he ever had in politics, for he has never had any opposition in his party since and the Democratic opposition was very light. This was all right enough, but now for the joke: At the next election the GAZETTE got mad at him, and for several months kept gandling in its columns an article headed with big "caps": "Greeley's Masterful Speech." Every man, woman and child who saw the GAZETTE wondered when the sarcastic criticism would be dropped, but the GAZETTE ran it till it became monotonous to all its realers. The article was kept standing as an insult to Greeley, and it required no explanation for the people to so understand it. Now the GAZETTE takes pleasure in presenting the name of the "Grand Educar" for the State office. We've no objections, and would rather see him get the little plum than some others we have heard of. I am awfully sorry that I can't give him a send-off in the State convention, but at the same time have to laugh over the change of heart that now afflicts the GAZETTE. O Hinery, Henery! How often would I have gathered you together as a hen gathereth her chickens under her wings but ye wouldn't gather. They Will Be Getting In Out of the Wet. Riverside Press. The San Francisco Chronicle, a few days since published a forecast of the vote of the next Republican State convention. We note that Riverside county is omitted from the list altogether. Evidently the Chronicle has forgotten that Riverside county has been formed, or else that great daily does not think us of sufficient importance so be included in its estimates. It is a fact, however, that Riverside county has been on the map of the State for nine years, and at every election since it has rolled up an ever increasing Republican majority. In 1900 we gave McKinley 1200 plurality, and Needham nearly 100 more, and we expect to do better than that for Governor and Congressman this year. We have the largest Republican majority in proportion to our population. Northwestern Alaska is an ideal area northwest of the Yukon basin. Seward peninsular, cut off from the mainland by Norton sound on the south and Kotzebue sound on the north is an important feature of this province. Several rivers drain from this area into Bering sea and the Arctic ocean. Northeastern Alaska has been but little explored. It includes the drainage basins of rivers between Point Barrow and the international boundary. The geology and mineral resources this region are unknown. The occurrence of coal in Alaska is in western United States; is limited to the rocks of the latter geologic periods (the Mesozoic and Tertiary). The rocks of these ages have an extensive distribution in the territory; are at a number of widely separated localities workable coal beds have been found. In 1852 the Russian-American company prepared to open coal mines at Port Graham on the western side of Kenai peninsular, but soon abandon their operations, though an American company mined coal at Port Chatham and supplied the Russian company steamers for about ten years longer. In 1868 a few tons of coal were mined at Kootznahoo inlet. Admiralty island for the United States steamship San Isaac, and in the same year coal was reported near Point Gardiner. Admiralty island.

General Shafter denies that he is a candidate for the Republican gubernatorial nomination, but it is not denied that some of his personal friends are making a still hunt in sounding political opinion on the subject. “This whole thing arose,” he said in San Francisco the other day, “through some over enthusiastic friends of mine who met at the Army and Navy League Club in Los Angeles last week. Of course they did not take the trouble to consult me in advance; one’s friends never do that. They simply caused the story to go abroad throughout the State, and here I am launched as a candidate for an office I never dreamed of seeking. Well I’m not a candidate. I’m not now and won’t be in the future. I know no more about politics than the average politician knows about the army, and that’s putting the case pretty strong.” “But suppose you were nominated, what then?” was asked. The general rubbed his chin in meditation, and took off his eyeglasses. “I’m a Republican,” he said. “And you would not decline a nomination!” “我 not declining anything that has not been offered. How could I? Personally, Governor Gage and I have always been friends, and I am not going to take the field against him. Under the Constitution of California, I would have to resign from the United States army, if I should be elected governor, and that would mean my giving up a certain income of $6000 a year for the rest of my life to hold office for four years.” The San Bernardino Sun makes We note that Riverside county is omitted from the list altogether. Evidently the Chronicle has forgotten that Riverside county has been formed, or else that great daily does not think us of sufficient importance to be included in its estimates. It is a fact, however, that Riverside county has been on the map of the State for nine years, and at every election since it was formed it has rolled up an ever increasing Republiclean majority. In 1900 we gave McKinley 1200 plurality, and Needham nearly 100 more, and we expect to do better than that for Governor and Congressman this year. We have the largest Republican majority in proportion to our population of any county in the State, and shall send 13 or 13 delegates to the next Republican State convention. We mention these facts for the information of the Chronicle, and we might add that unless all signs fall, the Riverside county delegation will be for Henry T. Gage for Governor. Perhaps that is why the Chronicle chose to ignore us. The rest of the Chronicle’s figures are about as accurate as its total omission of Riverside county. The only counties conceded to Gage are Del Norte, Humboldt, Sacramento, Shasta and San Francisco. Anybody with the slightest acquaintance with political conditions in the State would not make any such statement as that, except with the purpose to mislead. Senator Flint, Dr. Pardee and other candidates admit that the Governor is strong all over the State, and that nothing short of a landslide can defeat him. Los Angeles is put in the divided list. As a matter of fact, if any delegates there get away from Gage, they will be mighty lonesome. Orange county is also put down as divided. Gage’s friends claim it, and with every show of confidence. The county has a State candidate, and will undoubtedly find it best to “program” when the time comes. San Bernardino and San Diego counties are put down against Gage. But these counties have candidates for State Board of Equalization and Congress respectively, and will find it in their interest to get in out of the wet. And so it goes down through the last. All the figures are made up with a view of leading people to believe that the Governor has no show for renomination. The Chronicle knows better than that. It is stemming a tide which is setting steadily in the Governor’s favor, and no amount of deliberate misrepresentation will stop it. In 1888 a few tons of coal were mined at Kootznahoak in Admiralty Island for the United States steamship Santa Inaw, and in the same year coal was reported near Point Gardiner, Admiralty Island. Considerable prospectus has been done at Killisnoo, Admiralty Island, and the Firestone mine has been worked for local use since 1880. The Admiralty Coal and Fuel company or considerable development work in 1874 at Point Gardiner. In 1872 coal was mined at Coal bay, Unga island, and the United States steamship Humbolt and the mining of these southern Alaska coals has gone on in a small way by a number of years. In 1888 the Alaska Coal company began mining at Kaismak bay, west of Kenai peninsula and since 1899 the Cook Inlet Cattle Company seems to have controlled this field, and are now operating extensively. Since 1893 the Alaska Packers’ association has been mined intermittently at Chignik river, south eastern Alaska peninsular. In 1889 development of coal mines at Herdeen bay, western Alaska peninsula was begun, but without great success. The coals of the Yukon river attract little attention until the discovery gold in the Klondike region in 1854 Within a year there were probably two wards of a hundred steamers on the Yukon river, with wood selling at from $8 to $20 a cord, and with no wood buy on the lower Yukon below. Holy Cross mission. Soon some of larger companies established a coal station at St. Michael for the use river steamers, but with the result disadvantage that the steamer must take most coal when she had no freight. Much investigation of coal supply of the Yukon river taken place. In addition to coal mines in British Northwest Territory, the Alaska exploration company started some developments about 60 miles above Chichicilla City on the upper Yukon. The old mine is Drew’s, opposite the mouth of Hess creek, where the working extensive and the equipment includes steam hoisting apparatus, coal bunk etc. The Pioneer mine, below Pampas Creek and 30 miles above Ramsey RESOURCES OF ALASKA Discovery of Gold in the KlonCoal Beds of Yukon Region attracted little attention.

The chief tributary to the Yukon are Koyukuk, Teal, 17. 1902. LOCAL NOTES OF INTEREST Fraternal Aid. The meeting of the Fraternal Aid association on Thursday evening was one long to be remembered. Between thirty and forty members assembled to do honor to the general vice-president, N. D. Ellis. Both Mr. Ellis and Mr. Melrose spoke with great felicity on matters pertaining to the order. Masters Middleham and Cahen rendered two musical selections which added much to the pleasure of the occasion. Mr. Melrose, Mr. Cahen and Mrs. E. Enearl were elected as delegates to the Southern California District Convention to be held at Whittier April 30th. Mrs. C. R. Gates was commissioned as special organizer for Orange and San Bernardino counties. Anaheim Council at present numbers 66 beneficiary members, and it is hoped to reach the hundred mark in the near future. If 25 new members can be secured before June 1st, Mrs. Gates offers to furnish an oyster and ice-cream supper for the Council, and Mr. Ellis will be present to initiate them. Fire at Wintersburg. The two-story residence of Jacob Ross, situated on his ranch near Wintersburg, was totally destroyed by fire Saturday night, April 5th. The house was unoccupied at the time. The cause of the conflagration is unknown. Mr. Ross had been staying at his ranch for about ten days previous to the fire. On Saturday night he returned to Santa Ana to remain over Sunday. No one is known to have been at the house after he left it. The fact that blankets were afterwards found at the barn leads to the supposition that a tramp entered the house, and, after cooking a meal, took the blankets and went to the barn to sleep for the night. It is probable the house caught fire from a carelessly built fire, or else was burned with incendiary intent. The fire occurred at about two miles away equipped. Both mines produced considerable coal in 1900. Near Nulato, farther down the Yukon, the Blatchford and the Pickart mines produced some coal, and the Clemens Thein mine and the Williams mine, both between Nulato and Anvik, were small producers in 1900. As a result of the development of the Cape Nome gold fields, the Cape Lisborne coal deposits in northwestern Alaska have attracted renewed attention, and the Corwin Trading company is now engaged in endeavoring to develop these deposits to supply Nome and the whaling ships, which have heretofore brought their coal from Puget sound. The coals are chiefly ligalites, with some bituminous coals, and in a few localities semi-anthracites. Developments so far have been entirely along waterways. The southeastern and southwestern Alaska coal fields are on side water along a coast affording barbors open to navigation the entire year. They can be mined cheaply, and can find a ready market for local steamboat and domestic use. No developments have been made of the higher grade coals of southern Alaska. These higher grade coals are worthy of the attention of prospector and capitalist, for, if found to occur in sufficient quantities, they could compete with all other coals in the Pacific Coast market. The Yukon coals, as developed, depend entirely on their local market; their grade is too low for exportation. But the Yukon coals are said to bring about $15 a ton at the mines. Nome has offered a splendid market for coal during the last two years. Coal sold there at from $25 to $100 per ton, with an average price of about $40 to $50 per ton during the summer of 1900. It was this that led to the development of the Cape Lisbourne field where the coals are of a semi-bituminous character, which is only 200 miles distant. In 1900 about 13,000 tons of coal were shipped as cargo to Alaska from Washington port, and probably still more was imported from British Columbia.

Yukon basin includes a great part partly in Alaska and partly in Northwest Territory and Columbia. The chief tributary to the Yukon are Koyukuk, Teal, 17. 1902. LOCAL NOTES OF INTEREST Fraternal Aid. The meeting of the Fraternal Aid association on Thursday evening was one long to be remembered. Between thirty and forty members assembled to do honor to the general vice-president, N.D.Ellis. Both Mr.Ellis and Mr.Melrose spoke with great felicity on matters pertaining to the order. Masters Middleham and Cahen rendered two musical selections which added much to the pleasure ofthe occasion. Mr.Melrose, Mr.Cahen and Mrs.Enearl were elected as delegates tothe Southern California District Convention to be held at Whittier April 30th.Mrs.C.R.Gates was commissioned as special organizer for Orangeand San Bernardino counties.

To the west of these as is the broad basin of the river. A small southern this region drains directly into sea by a number of short rivers. Yukon basin includes a great partly in Alaska and partly in Northwest Territory and Columbia. The chief tribulary of the Yukon are Koyukuk, Teorcupine, White, Pelly and vers, the two last uniting to the Yukon proper, and their basins are wholly within Canterritory. The larger part of them is occupied by the great plateau, sloping from about 5near the head waters above to 2,500 feet at the great bend over. East of this plateau lies north extension of the Rocky us, which, near the Arctic turns abruptly west parallel coast, forming the Romanzof, and De Long mountains, the Yukon watershed. On the left side of the Yukon basin the range and the St. Ellias range of Alaskan ranges form the barin part the watershed of the Northwestern Alaska is an illlness northwest of the Yukon deward peninsular, cut off from land by Norton sound on the Kotzebue sound on the north, important feature of this proveneral rivers drain from this to Bering sea and the Arctic Northeastern Alaska has been explored. It includes the basics of rivers between Point and the international boundary. ogy and mineral resources of ton are unknown. Occurrence of coal in Alaska, as eastern United States, is limited rocks of the latter geologic (the Mesozoic and Tertiary). Most of these ages have an extentribution in the territory, and number of widely separated localorkable coal beds have been 2 the Russian-American compared to open coal mines at Shaham on the western side of peninsular, but soon abandoned operations, though an American mined coal at Port Chatham applied the Russian company's for about ten years longer. A few tons of coal were mined Kannoo inlet. Admiralty island, United States steamship Sagad in the same year coal was near Point Gardiner, Admirand. Considerable prospecting done at Killianoo, Admiralty and the Firestone mine has been for local use since 1880. The Utility Coal and Fuel company did enable development work in 1900 at Gardiner. In 1872 coal was at Coal bay, Unga island, for United States steamship Humboldt, mining of these southern Alashas gone on in a small way for grade is too low for exportation. But the Yukon coals are said to bring about $15 a ton at the mines. Nome has offered a splendid market for coal during the last two years. Coal sold there at from $25 to $100 per ton, with an average price of about $40 to $50 per ton during the summer of 1900. It was this that led to the development of the Cape Lisburne field where the coals are of a semi-bituminous character, which is only 200 miles distant. In 1900 about 13,000 tons of coal were shipped as cargo to Alaska from Washington port, and probably still more was imported from British Columbia. No accurate data as to the coal produced by Alaskan mines are obtainable, but the total is probably between 4000 and 5000 tons, of which about a third is from mines on the Yukon river. Brief mention is made in the report of three other sources of fuel supply, namely, peat, wood and petroleum. TO RECLAIM ARID ARIZONA 600,000 Acres to Be Reclaimed by a Great Reservoir Over Twenty Miles Square. To aid in building the largest reservoir in the world, and to provide for the irrigation of over one-half million acres of land, most of which is now given over to the desert, besides the irrigation of 100,000 acres of land on the Pima Indian reservation, Arizona is asking Congress to appropriate a million dollars. A petition was forwarded recently to Washington, asking for the passage of an act, enabling Maricopa county to issue bonds to the amount of $2,500,000, a sum believed to be sufficient to provide for the project under consideration. A bill was sent to Arizona's representative in Congress, asking that a million dollars be given by the national government to partially pay for the work. The site proposed for the dam is on the Salt River, in the mountains some sixty miles northeast of Phoenix, at the point where the river, leaving the Tonto basin, enters a deep narrow gorge in the solid rock. The gorge is but 200 feet wide at the level of the stream, and for the first hundred feet upward the walls are perpendicular. It is proposed to build a masonry dam which will be 200 feet high above low water, and allowing for waste ways twenty feet deep. Will create a reservoir 180 feet deep. The dam will be 650 feet long on top. The waste ways on each side of the dam are calculated to pass without over-topping the dam, the greatest known flood, that of 1891, when the discharge during part of one day was equal to one-half of that running over Niagara Falls. The reservoir site, covering over twenty square miles, is likewise ideally located by nature. Into this basin is carried the run-off from a drainage area of nearly 6000 square miles, most of which is within the region of the greatest precipitation in the territory. The greater portion of this watershed has a rainfall of fifteen to twenty inches and upwards annually. The storage capacity of the reservoir is limited only by the height of the dam which it is practicable to build, and the capacity of the reservoir which will be created by the dam projected will be stupendous—no less than 757,000 feet, or 32,670 million cubic feet of Mr. Ross had been staying at his ranch for about ten days previous to the fire. On Saturday night he returned to Santa Ana to remain over Sunday. No one is known to have been at the house after he left it. The fact that blankets were afterwards found at the barn leads to the supposition that a tramp entered the house, and, after cooking a meal, took the blankets and went to the barn to sleep for the night. It is probable that house caught fire from a carelessly built fire, or else was burned with incendiary intent. The fire occurred at about two o'clock in the morning, and neighbors arrived too late to see any one who might have been about the premises. The house was worth $2000 and carried a $1500 insurance policy in the Orange County Farmers' Mutual Insurance company. It was one of the finest residences in Wintersburg. Walnut Growers The annual meeting of the Fullerton Walnut Growers' association was held recently. Bylaws were amended so that in future annual meetings will be held last instead of the first Saturday in April. The following were elected directors for the coming year: W. M. McFadden, R. H. Gilman, F. J. Teale, B. F. Porter and L. P. Drake. W. M. McFadden was chosen president, R. H. Gilman vice-president and Arthur Staley secretary. Arthur McDermont was continued as manager of the house. Walnut men are encouraged over crop prospects. The manner in which trees are blooming indicates a splendid crop for next year. Summer Session We have received the bulletin of the University of California, announcing the summer session of the university which begins June 26th and ends August 6th. The summer session has become an integral part of the work of the University of California. The truly extraordinary rapidity of its development—in three years it has come to be second in students of American summer sessions—shows how genuine is the need which it meets—the need felt by teachers, professional men, and others of an opportunity of spending a summer vacation in study under the best university directors and aid. Those who may desire further information in regard to the same should address James Sutton, recorder of the faculties, Berkeley.
