SEATTLE, WASH., THURSDAY, AUGUST 14, 1913. STAR SENDS FIRST MAN TO SUSHANNA GOLD FIELDS City Editor of This Newspaper Leaves Cordova Today With Army of Stampeders Over Trail for the “Diggings”’ Alaska is sure in the public eye. Just as The Star had succeeded in interesting its sister newspapers in the whole Scripps League in its project for the opening of Alaskan coal fields, along came the report of the Sushanna gold find. , Just a week ago The Star gave to Seattle the details of its “Open Alaska Right” campaign, which has now be- come a national movement, supported by nearly 50 power- ful newspapers. In connection with its campaign The Star planned to send a member of its staff right into the heart of Alaska to get the real facts about those locked up stores of wealth. But when news of the gold stampede came, there was no time to lose, so E. O. Sawyer, city editor of The Star, was outfitted with pack horse, with food to last him for two months on the trail, with cameras and films for a thousand pictures, and rushed to Cordova. Sawyer sailed from Seattle on the Northwestern, reach- ing Cordova yesterday, and today he is on his way to the Sushanna as the ONLY NEWSPAPER MAN WHO WILL PARTICIPATE IN THE GREAT STAMPEDE. Sawyer will hike 160 miles over Scolai glacier and pass from the end of the Copper river valley railway to the new gold field and back. He will bring first details of what may be the greatest strike since Nome and Dawson. But, better than that, he will get the stories of the trail, the stories of the fight with DEATH FOR GOLD. Alaskans have learned from bitter experience that Mother Earth takes heavy toll in lives and hardships before she gives up her treasure. Pronger rr Watch for his stories! Read of the romance of cai eclna From Seattic, * and woods; of adventure in the wilderness; of the feveri LAWSON PROPOSES $2,500,000 FUND TO excitement to be among the first at the big “strike”; read Sawyer’s descriptions of the people and their ways and what it means to stake a gold claim. We expect that this will be THE MOST ENTERTAIN- ING AND PICTURESQUE NEWSPAPER FEATURE of the year! However, Sawyer will not overlook the principal fea- tures of his expedition. Having told you all about the new gold diggings, he will tramp it, and camp it, and “mush” it —as they say in Alaska—in other districts, in order that he may be able to tell you, first-hand, all about the wonder- ful resources of Alaska and what it will mean to Seattle and the whole country to develop these resources wisely. He will go to the coal fields which we expect Uncle Sam will soon open and operate. He will travel up the fertile Tanana valley, where there are already rich farms and through which Uncle Sam _ will build a railroad. He will explore a large part of the country south of the famous Yukon rivey and see the people who are struggling to get ahead in that district which needs Uncle Sam’s atten- tion so much just now. He will explain why the country should be developed at once; how it can be developed best by railroad and other- wise; he will describe the best harbors. And when you have read all his stories you will be thoroughly ac- quainted with the GREAT ALASKA PROBLEM which your Uncle Sam is now working out. Sawyer is a first-class newspaper photographer, and his pictures of the gold stampede and of scenes in the Northwest wonderland will be an intensely interesting fea- ture of these stories of adventure and description.

Then it was found that the Northwestern was jammed to the guards, and that all of the stali room was taken, Over 50 stampeders with their horses had reserved berths and stalis. By good luck, room to build one extra stall was found, and Saw- yer, his horse, pack and all, were bundied aboard. Just before sailing, Bawyer pac! up his horse to see how the “critter” would act. The horse proved true, just as the South Seattle horse ler, who got $80 for him, promised. BIG COMPANIES ARE - JUMPING CLAIMS IN NEW GOLD DIGGINGS By E. O.
