From Alaska.

CAPTAIN r. B. Bell, of the schoo-
ner Surprise and resident of Prince
of Wales island, was in the city
Sunday, says Portland Oregonian,
and said that while the Alaskans
are experiencing an exceptionally
cold winter, with heavy storms and
plenty of snow, they are not worried
much over the tariff question, the
bond issue or the Hawaiian situa-
ton. The number of miners who
have gone into Alaka's interior this
winter has been smaller than in
former years. Not more than $50
men have gone up the Yukon, and
much smaller number are located
on the placer fields of the Junuck.
1t is quite an undertaking to pole
up stream against a swift current,
or to play the part of canal horse
and tow a heavy fat5oat over dang
erous rapids, and that is the only
way to reach the interior. l have
seen four men towing boat loaded
with supplies at the rate Of four or
five miles per day, and then, after
enduring all sorts of hardships, come
down in the spring with only enough
gold to pay for their 'grubstake.'
Not that gold is a scarce article in
Alaska, but simply because they
did not happen to srtike it lucky.
