Our trade has been almost solely
with the Indians. We are long dis
lance from the developed gold districts,
so ] saw little of the miners. The In
dams brought in lynx, otter, beaver.
mink and other skins, and for all these
we exchanged such things as we kept
in stock for the Indian trade. There are
four or five families of Indians that live
almost continually in the vicinity of tina
fort. but many times as many as fifty
Indians would come in from long hunt
ing trips. These Indians never both
cred me, though l was sometimes for
weeks left alone while my husband was
compelled by his business to absent
himself down the river.
Last winter we went up to Rampant
House, on the boundary. with stock of
goods, thinking it would be good place
to trade for while. 1t is fourteen days
journey by boat from Fort Yukon, and
the ice caused us considerable trouble,
but we got through safely. We found,
however, when we got back in the
spring. that the Indians had broken into
the fort and stolen quite an amount Of
our goods.
I'VE were glad to be at Fort Yukon
once more, There is more game and fish
there than at the Rampant House,
which is on the Porcupine branch of the
Yukon. On the Porcupine we could get
plenty of moose and deer meat, and
white and spotted dog fish, but We could
not get any wild fowl to speak of, ex-
cept grouse. AS wild meat is very es-
sential in that country, we felt the need
of a variety. At Fort Yukon we could
not only get moose and deer in abund-
ance, but here were also ducks, geese,
widgeon. grouse and other fowl. There
was also much greater variety of food
fish.
MY husband was the first man to sue
cessfully open and continue an Ameri-
can trading post at Fort Yukon, though
two Or three others had attempted it.
The Hudson Bay company had for some
time conducted post there, though that
was before Alaska was purchased by the
| United States. We have got along very
well with it, and are entirely satisfied
with our experiences on the Yukon. My
husband was for some years with the
United States Coast and Geodetic Sur
vey in Alaska. He went there with Mr..
]. E. McGrath four years ago, and was
entirely familiar with the opportunities
for trading.
Il am a native of Belgium and it was
there first met my husband, and where
we were married. We lived afterward
for time in New York, then in Boston
and then in San Francisco. 1t was while
! we were living in San Francisco that
my husband joined the Coast and Geo.
detic Survey, which led to our eventual
ly going north to live in the wilds of the
Yukon.
Fort Yukon, where we are stationed,
is eighty miles above the mouth Of
Forty Mile Creek, and only ninety miles
from Circle City, the new camp near the
Arctic circle, where from 600 to 700
miners are expected to winter this
year."
Mrs. Beaumont will remain here dur

panied by her youngest child, a bounc-

RESTRICTED LICENSE.

The Executive Council has made
known it's willingness to grant re-
stricted liquor license to the proposed
Waikiki Hotel Company. In the condi-
tions the Executive does not permit a
bar. The sale of liquor must be lin
tied to actual guests of the hotel.
Whether these conditions of the
Government will be accepted by the
promoters of the enterprise will not
be definitely determined until the ar
rival of Mr.. Walter c. Peacock, or his
brother, from the States on the next
Australia. Mr.. Rothwell, the local rep
resentative of Mr.. Peacock stated to-
day that he had submitted the entire
matter to Mr.. Peacock, who is in San

there are advices from Messrs. Cooper

men who will volunteer to blindly lead

end of failure. The Star holds tn 1t

on CHANGED LINES.

The Star has very little to add to
and nothing to take from it's remarks
anent the latter day manipulation
and the passing of the Annexation
Club. The record is clear that not
withstanding advantage of the use of
names of earnest and responsible men
the push" wrecked the organization.
Sights were given and indignities af-
flicted that cannot soon be forgotten.
The executive sessions" and the
numerous insulting incidents of eX-
ercise of bossism alienated the sympa-
thy of hundreds. If The Star was able
to even hope that those driven from
the Club ranks could be induced to
stihe their self-respect and return to
the rolls it could wholly agree with
the Advertiser hui.
Reorganizati is quite often much
more difficult than the launching of
new enterprise or party. \ fresh
start with the Annexation CLUB
might be made success, but the eX-
pertinent would be of a doubtful
nature. 1t would be much better and
much more certain to inaugurate the
movement or revival on practically
new lines, yet with the same outcome
in view. Besides the internal dissen-
sion, the old Club would face again all
the accumulated determined and vio-
lent opposition now locally an insti-
tuition. To accomplish anything fur
ther in the group the Club would have
to be stronger than it was before. As
a matter of fact it can never approach
again the point of power and inilu-
ence il once occupied. The situation
has changed considerably since the
Club retired from business. For one
thing there has come into being a Re.
public with a constitution declaring
as part of its faith desire for "closer
States. More people can be enlisted
under that section of the basic law
than can ever be induced to join, sup
port or tolerate the Annexation Club;

OF this discussion, in the course OF
which the Advertiser hui has become
so acrimonious, The Star can say it
trusts there will be profit-gains in
the right direction. The only pur-
- pose of this paper in the premises is
to advance the cause which seems best
for the country. Results other than
long sleeps must be accomplished.
