Fairbanks Times: One of the
most significant mining deals put
through in Fairbanks in many
months was that consumated yester
day when Harry Pearson and An
drew Johnson, doing business under
the name of Pearson & Johnson
tut lv i lease on the upper one-hull
u tlii? Le-trim association claim.
0:1 Livengood creek, in the Tolo
vana district. The Leitrim claim,
•vhich. by the way is named after
cue the counties of Ireland, is situ
:'.t>-d en the right limit bench, op
posite 5 above on Livengood creek,
and i.-- owm d by J. J. Sherry and
I);ivp Cascaaen.
The ie;ise provides that the les
sees shall have the right to mine
th-> ground for the noxt threeyears,
and that they sh;-!l enter upon ir
au'l tontinu*- to work it in a work
manlike manner during that time.
Ti.ey ;ire not compelled to enter up
on the ground to start operations
beforo October 1, 1915.
The deal is significant in that
l\ur?' n iNc Johnson have been oper
a'.'ng on the adjoining claims for
tht. past two mouths. That they
are satisfied that the ground is
sood is evident from the fact, that
they are willing and ready to take
Uj more ground.
The lease provides that the les
sors shall receive 25 per cent
o* *he gross output of the claim,
ajil i:i the event that the pay runs
Jl.Ju or N-tter to the foot, they
are to receivc- thirty-three anil
cne-tnird per cent.

was made to ut last Wednesday; by
John D. Ross, for the past 28 years

i:o. h'sitancy in saying that What he
saw on his trip north through the
inside passage to Skagway proved
tho most wonderful of any hq
had ever viewed for the grandeur
and magnificent beauty of its
sce.iery.
This is .Mr. Ross' first visit to
tho north, and Alaska is the; miss
ing link in his world's itinerary,
which will be welded into the por
fe.'t chain this summer in the two
mouths which it is his iutention to
ievote to a trip through the in
iTi'-T, finally going out via Nome
ani the Boring Se.i route.
Of tho service and accomoda
tions on 'the Princess Alice, Mr.
Rosa speaks in the very highest
terms, saying that it was one • of
the surprises of the northern voy
•;go that he could command every
cr.nvjuience and comfort (that could
he supplied in countries that are
much farther advanced than is Al
y.-ki: at the present time.

ALASKA TO HAY IT
POSTAL SAVINGS BANKS
The following letter has been re
ceived by Governor Strong from
the third assistant postmaster gen
eral in regard to the extension of
th«» postal savings bank system
♦hroughout Alaska.:
"Consideration is now being given
to the extension cf the facilities of
the postal savings system to the
principal postoffices in the territory
of Alaska and in connection with
its proposed action It is important
that arrangements be made for the
proper disposition of all postal sav
ings deposits.
"The Federal Postal Savings Act
provides that the funds received at
each postoffice shall be preferably
depositi d in local banks which may
qualify to receive them, it being
stipulated that only bank 'organized
under national or "state laws' and
'subject to national or state super
vision and examination' shall be el
igible to "qualify as such deposi
tories. There is a prohibition in
the Federal Reserve Act against
tiio leposit of postal savings funds
in banks not belonging to the Fed
pral Reserve .System, but this
is not'applicable to Alaska, and in
view o' the recent enactment by
your legislature of a comprehensive
banking law providing for supervi
sion and examination of territorial
oanks, apparently, in addition to tho
two national banks in Alaska, all
Solv°u* incorporated banks organized
under the laws of Alaska will "be
eligible to qualify as depositories
fir postal savings funds if they de
sire to do so. Private banks "are
hold not to be "oranlzed" within
the meaning of the law and are
therefore ineligible' to receive such
deposits."
