"Things are moving in the At
lin Lrts'rict, tlie town is being ra
ftidly rebuil* and a general toae
of prosperity seems to have set
tled over that section of the| coun
try," rayo J. M. Ruffneir, the pio
neer mining man from Atlin, who
is a visitor until Thursday in the
Garden City.
Mr. Ruffner has beeni operating
a hydraulic yroiperty at the bead
of -Spruce creek. He has closed
down tor the season, owing to a
shortage of water. He isi also op
erating a drift mine on lower
Spruce Creek. He reports thut his
colors aire good a:ii that pay is
betng *otten, from the earth in. good
quantities.
Speaking of the district in gen
eral be informed' an Alaskan re
porter that Atlin was enjoying one
of tbe bes-t seasons that it ha*l ever
experiei«ce*l. Practically all of the
merchants have either rebuilt or
are planning on rebuilding the
buildings which) were wiped out
by fire at tbe beginning of the
season.. Many tourists bave come
to Atlin this summer and all seem
ed highly pleased with, the lake
country. This is a brancbi of im
portant activity thut is just begin
ning to develop for the Atlin peo
ple and will In the future prove a
winner for the business mm of
the late side country.
Tbe .Engineer mine is making
good shipments of ore and indica
tions point to a continuance of ac
tivity with, that mine. Pro«i>ect
ors are working tlie country; and
reporting strikes every now and
then. A shortage oi labor baa
held pack the speedy progress) of
some of the camps. Higher wages
are being paid, in the Atlia camps
thau ever before. Plenty of work
can be found for the miner in the
Atlin district if ho is agood work
er and is willing to buckle into the
game.
Many of tbe drift mines will
contiuue operations all winter.
Some of the surface mines will be
compelled to cltee during the
winter season.
Finding that the City Ordinances
which were remodeled mid drafted
iu 1U0S, are partly void because, of
itoivLCufotruiity wjtij the Territorial
laws passed sine® that date, the
citv council hasi determined to paas
new OTdiJiancea which will giv»
them iertalii legal rights neces
sary to the proper governing of
tlie city.
H. L. Faulkner, prominejit Ju
neau attorney, and familiar with
ci'y municipal work, has agreed to
draw uo ordinance to replace the
ones which are void by non con
formity. He has promised to set
to work immediately on the draft,
ing of the ordinances. As soon as
ceonpleted tliey will be passed by
the council and Kcome the laws of
»he city.
Tho sections of the city ordin
ances which, refer to> thei collection
of oersonal taxes are antiquated by
non-conformity with the Territorial
laws. These will receive the spec
ial a'tenticxn of the council and as
soon as they aippes'r on the city
statute books, a campaign will be
waged to collect b"ck taxes and
money due the city.
