Falls Creek Mines to push winter work under Lane bond
Bonds aggregating about 400000 dollars on Falls Creek mines are held by Charles D Lane and his associates. Thomas M Lane will stay through winter directing operations. Main activity centers on the Betty and Columbia tunnels with ore bodies near surface and plans to drive additional tunnels toward the Texas and Seattle vein. The Lane group has secured bonds on multiple claims, arranged ore packing to the railroad, and prepared housing for workers as winter weather approaches.

Seward land sale sets new price record and Alaska policy views
W. M. Sauers paid 32000 to Nelson Brothers for a west side Fourth Avenue lot between Brown and Franklin, a Seward record for realty. He plans a two story 28 by 72 foot building with ten rooms, but lumber shortages delay work. In Washington, Alaska statehood debates loom with proposals for territorial government and a three member Alaska commission in Congress. Delegates like Ryan and Cushman push for Alaska representation and a big road fund, while some prefer waiting for a balanced territorial framework. Deputy U.S. Marshal Bates reports from Nushagak. Leonard Seibert, builder of the first Pullman sleeping car, dies recently.
