q Strange 1,iscovery.|


p stupendO nss discovery is that made
BY Professor Alfred Eldridge IN the
wilds Of Alaska at q point beyond where!
any white man had gone before him.
Starting from the mouth Of the Ku-'
walk river, which empties into Kotze-.
bue sound, Professor Eldridge explored
shat stream up through 400 miles Of its
frozen course. AT this point he found q
small lake. "a mountain side rose pre-
scipitously from it. Something in that.
mountain side made it look as If it had;
been once disturbed by human hands.
He went to the spot, and there, 400.
miles from any human habitat on, he
found the remains Of a mighty city, as
great as any Of the prehistoric ones yet
discovered on this continent There
were hatchets, spears and arrowh heads
and pottery and massive walls, showing
that the city had been inhabited by peo-
pie we'll advanced in civilization. The
masonry was perfect. Someof the vases
he found We're three 4eet high. They
were of a shape and artistic pattern un-
excelled by anything made even in our
time. The most remarkable discovery
made by Professor Eldridge, however,
was this-tha pottery and implements
were identical in make and pattern with.
those Of the prehistoric ruins Of New
Mexico Beyond doubt, atssome time
so long back that it makes the brain.
apin to think Of it., the climate all over
North America, possibly even to the
pole, vas warm and inhabited through
out its whole length by one race of peo-
pie. Who or what that race was future
scientific research must determine.

The northwestern partof Canada and
British America may prove to be one Of
the richest mineral regions in the world.
In British Columbia great quantities of
gold, silver, coal and copper have been
found. In other parts Of the Dominion
have been discovered salt, petroleum
and even natural gas. It has taken a
long time to develop the Canadian and
British American mines, but there is
reason to believe that when their vast
ness and richness are opened up
the British territory will almost rival
the United States as an ore producing
country. The experiences Of early days
in Californi a are being repeated in Brit
ish Columbia, where. the miners are
sending word back east that they would
give anything if they had wives to
share their newly found prosperity.
A mining agent from British Columbia
who lately made a business trip to Mont
real declared that the miners were seri-
ously considering their lack of partners
and that if 1900 nice girls could be
persuaded to go to his province every
one of them would get good husband.

The Boss Of NIilIionaires.

Much has been written of the crush
ing Of labor under the heavy yoke Of
capital. The millionaire who raises his
naughty head and strides, tattooed all
over with the dollar mark, over the
PROSTATE form of bleeding, suffering,
starving labor has been held up to scorn
by both the pen and pencil Of gifted ones
who make their living by DRAWN such
moving pictures.
But even the bloated aristocrat .who
would not wipe his feetupon the farmer
or the day laborer has his limitations.
There is one power before whom he ever
quails in terror, one who may say to him
at any time, Thus far shalt thou 20
and no farther = and he stops.
1t is the cook.
Under her iron rod he becomes meeker
than Moses. Without her consent and CO.
operation he cannot give dinner party
or feast. She may in pure malice put a
drop too much Of this or q pinch too lit
tie Of that into his soup and his reputa-
ton as a master Of recherche dinners
lies in ruins. IF in dudgeon she chooses
to leave before breakfast, Nine. Mil
lionaire has no alternative but to sub
NIT. She and Mr.. millionaire all
the: little half and quarter millions
must go hungry or cook their own
breakfast. In this despot's presence

the poor man. but the cook buIdozes

will carry out the traditions of

TIE grave question confronting the
Democratic parry at this time is wor-
thy of the most serious consideration.
The majority of the delegates to the
Democratic National Convention have
declared for the free and unlimited
coinage of silver at a rattle of Is to l.
Upon this platform they have nomi-
mated candidate for President and
Vice-P President of the United States.
1t is claimed that the vast body of
producers all over the country, ire
spective of party, are in accord with
the above line of policy, and that the
candidates on this platform will re-
ceive a hearty endorsement from the
producing classes. That opposition to
the above platform should come from
the large cities and from financial cir
cles was confidently expected by the
men who constituted majority of the
late convention. 1t is well the con-
ventiOn gave no uncertain sound re-
garding its financial policy. 1t is far
better that the issue should be made at
this time. The question is one that
has long been in dispute and one that
should be settled once for all. 1t will
take some time before the leaders will
be able to Ascertain the feelings of the
vast body of the people on the issue.
In the meantime we commend the
question to the intelligent considera-
ton of our readers, and advise our
Democratic friends to give the ticket
their earnest support.
