GOOD BOOSTER
IS "HAPPY"
Tlie following article was taJcea
from t be Astoria Evening Budget,
aud shows that "Happy" Dortero,
like all other Alaskans are na
tural born "boosters."
Th« southern part of Alaska has
had a new awakening by the dis
covery recently of a valuable ledge
contaiu'hg molybdenite, a metal
used in various chemical com
pounds. Outside of the state of
Colorado, it is the only mine of
its kind in the American continent,
anH promises *o pay immense divi
dends.
This was the information brought
to the city Saturday by Vincent Dor
tero, who with his father Tony
Dortero, is engaged in the mer
cantile business at Skagway.
Vincent Dortero came to Astoria
ou his way to the Panama exposi
tion tc visit with former friends and
incidentally put hi a boost for
Skagway.
Vincent says that the new mines
around Skagway are going to make
a great difference in the future of
the city. In addition to the discov
ery of moly-. enite concentrates, a
considerable quantity of antimony
ore in the Wheaton district will be
mined .13 a ready market awaits
the product In all parts of Eui-ope.
• "We are doing a fair business,"
said Mr. Dortero, "and we have
great hopes for the future. The
men who went to Alaska during the
early gold excitement, and have
stuck to their jobs have all done
well. Skagway was once only a
mining town. Today it has all the
modern public utilities, a daily
newspaper, and splendid opportuni
ties for commerce of all kinds.
With beUer transportation service
promised, and the building: of the
government railroad Into the in
terior, Alaska will be able to
double its output of precious
metals."
