Grubstake Privilege Struck Down by Circuit Court
In the Swiftwater Gates vs Isaac L Marks case the U S Circuit Court of Appeals rules the grubstake system in Alaska invalid. Gates paid $1 000 for a 20 percent share of all future property acquired by location or purchase, but the court finds the contract inequitable and void. The decision follows district court findings and a demurrer sustained against the agreement.
