gives reliable and sensational accounts of
the maneuvering of the Canadian Gov
ernmenrs forces in that country.
The territory along the line OF the sup
posed boundary is well known to these
parties. and they report that the Cana
dian Government has constructed many
and is still constructing and equipplng
more breastworks and barracks on all the
commanding bluffs. Every strategic
point of vantage has been secured by
line and particularly in and around the
vicinity of placer mines. which are filling
up with Canadian prOspectOIS.
The Americans IN Alaska do not seem
to realize or worry over the anxiety and
eagerness OF the British to seize such
strategetic points. The mounted police
in the employ of the Canadian Govern
ment are very kind. and have helped the
Americans in a great many cases. In
fact, they have done moro for them than
they have for some OF their own people.
The rivers along the boundary line are
very narrow. At the loop of Forty mile
Creek, and several points along the
boundary small detachments ofsupposed
Canadian militia in citizens clothes have
been reconnotering the surrounding
country. The detachmants are ali we'll
provisioned, well-housed and have large
pack trains. Surveying parties have
been draitod for the Canadian Govern
ment for some time, and have been doing
hard work.
The party reports that the condition of
the miners at present in Alaska is in q
deplorable state. Those on the Upper
Yukon have suffered greatly, provisions
being scarce and prices high. A great
many predict that scurvy will break out
among the miners this winter and great
suffering will result. Five deaths from
scurvy had occurred before the ship
sailed. There are hundreds of men who
would come away if they could, but they
lack the necessary means.
The British fleet is noticeable in num-
Der and fit from one point to another
continually, in striking contrast to the
small revenue cutters the United States
has on hand. which remain in one place
until they leave for the south.

The only silver solution that could
solve anything is that which would be
brought by REIMBURSEMENT of the ratio
between the metals through international
agreement and the general opening of
minis to silver A radical change from
the 10 to coinage proportion Of the
United States and the 15l to ! of the
nations Of the Latin Monetary Union
would have to be made, as the market
proportion has been recently in the neigh
borhood of 80 to ]. Perhaps with free
coinage by all the nations at a % or 80
to ratio the price of silver might be
maintained for years at, or close to, such
level as might be agreed upon. The
great nations acting in concert could do
much in this direction. Certainly the
endeavors of any one, two or three ma
tions, however wealthy or powerful,
would come to naught. The long, costly
and humiiating experience Of the United
States in trying to sustain the silver
market is decisive on this point

wOlCott and the Bimetallio Project.

Senator Wolcotts proposition for the
proper representation Of the United
States in the international monetary
conference which the German Reichstag
recommends is eminently sensible and
practical. He asks the appointment OF
a commission of nine members to take
part in the conference, three Of them to
be appointed by the President subject
70 the consent OF the Senate, prior to
the adjournment of the present Congress,
the others to be a joint committee of
this Congress, three to be members OF
the Senate and the other three OF the
House, the vacancies in the JOINT COM
mittee, II any should occur after the
adjournment Of this Congress, to be
filed by the President. 1t is provided
also that 100000 be appropriated for
the expense OF the commission.
A point in the Colorado Senator's
scheme which is worthy OF especial COM
mendation is the proviso that the COM
mission shall not act unless the initiative
be taken by Germany, Great Britain or
some other of the European nations
Heretofore the United States has taken
the lead in bringing about those gather
ings. Wolcott's proposition wisely stays
this country's hand until some other
great nation has acted. Thus far our
anxiety TO rehabilitate silver has led to
false conception abroad as to our true
position, ard has, moreover, accomplish
cd nothing. We will now let the great
nations OF Europe understand that our
interest in the solution OF the silver
problem is no greater than theirs. We
can endure the universal embarrassment
and loss due to the trade disturbance
const quent on the disordered currency
systems Of the world as well as any other
nation, andlit is time for us TO proclaim
this fact. All nations would be bene-
fitted by the restoration OF silver as far
as practicable TO its old place in the
worlds circulating medium.

UNJUST PREJUDICE.

There has in the past been very I'M
just and unnecessary prejudice existing
in the minds of the people in regard to
the railroads Of the country. The stock
in trade of many one horse politicians
and OF those who hope to win favor with
the ignorant is to be eternally condemn
ing, not only railroads, but all enter
prises in which large capital is employed.
These people do their talking without
understanding the situation of things or
else from sinister motives. Railroads
are as important to the development and
prosperity OF country as are any other
enterprises. While it is true that they
seem sometimes to be exacting in their
demands as far as rates are concerned,
yet it is also true that no one is COM
PEELED to patronize them. The man who
objects to paying the rate of three cents
per mile for travel charged, has the
liberty to walk in their tracks at no ex-
pense except that Of the wear OF shoe
leather, while the one who prefers it is
at liberty to haul his goods in wagons.
Freight is seemingly little high, but
yet with. the tariff charged is cheaper
than by any other method of transporta-
ton except by boat.
Juries as general thing are not in
clined to do justice to either railroads or
any other kind of corporations. The
man who is jolted off farmer Jones'
wagon and breaks leg never thinks OF
bringing suit against the driver
who carelessly ran over rock and
caused the accident, but the same man il
accidently hurt by train is not satisfied
with less than several thousand dollars
as damages. Corporations should be
treated Just as individuals-boths should
be made to suffer for gross neglect, but
one not more than the other for that
which is unavoidable. We believe that
the people are becoming more educated
along the line OF that which is right be-
tween individuals and corporations.
Each one has its rights under the law
and one no more sacred than the other.
A glance at the statistics OF the roads
OF this county as found elsewhere in this
issue OF the HUSTLER will show to the
reader that they are of great money
value to us, beside the other advantages
to be derived from them as arteries of
trade. Nearly one-fourth fthe property
of the county is in railroads. The L. &
N and c., o. & S. w. railroads pay near
ly one-fourth OF our taxes. They are as
sessed $l,l63,ls0 for State and county
purposes. The tax on this property is
levied aud paid each year and thus helps
to tighten the burden that would other
wise be laid upon us as taxpayers. The
man or set OF men who would willingly
destroy the roads is simply killing the
goose that lays the golden egg. The
railroad is as important to our material
prosperity rs is the horse and wagon or
the mule and cart. We do not believe
in protecting railroads at the expense of
the people neither do We believe in OPP
pressing these arteries OF commerce
simply to crafty spite or as balm for
some who, through his own neglect, has
brought trouble or pain to himself
