McRae, widely known| i | Canadian mining man and member | of the Dominion Senate, has an op- tion on the property which was inve: ated this summer and shows great promise, Mr. Stewart reported.

The Circle district was hampered somewhat by shortage of water this season buf around Fairbanks there was ample water and activity went| forward with renewed vigor. The!

There is no particular increase| in the Willow Creek district where four mines are operating. The Wil- low mines, Lucky Shot and War Baby, are employing about 100 men, the Gold Cord has about 10 and; the Fern some 14 New develop-| ment is going on on the old Martin property in that area, now con-; teolled by Canadian interests, and | a crew of about a dozen men were in there this summer. Both Cache Creek and Valde: Creek areas were active and a| lode property is being developed | by an Idaho group in the Valdez district. Operations were resumed on Eva Creek this summer with a crew of 10 or 12 men. Much of the credit for this activity is given | Mrs. Frank Erno, who the Commis- { sioner described as one of the best | “mining men” in that district.

Nome, Kobuk and the Koyukuk! areas were reported about normal.| The Kobuk region is pomnt:.fll\ one of the richest regions in the Territory, Mr. Stewart believes, but is hampered by lack of transporta- | tion. Coal mining is going along about normal, he said, with the new Black Diamond Company making a iine showing in the Matanuska dis- trict. Increasing Power Facilities The Commissioner found that all mines are increasing their .power facilities preparatory to geuting ou. tonnage. There is tendency toward the installation of diesel and a general improving in milling equipment, notably the in- tlation cf flotation equipment Such improvements at the Nabesna preperties had improved ext it 10 arcund 95 and 97 per cent, Stew- art found.
