WE MUST ACT PROMPTLY.

The announcement is made that the
sale of lots to secure the glass plant
must be completed by the end OF next
week. The promoters lost consider
able time in preliminaries and the sale
of lots has been slower than they an
ticipated. The foreign men who are
to put in considerable capital which
they have been holding in readiness
for some time, are becoming impa-
tient and must know soon whether
they are to invest in q plant here or
elsewhere for an investment. Other
cities not a thousand miles from Mari
eta would like to have the opportun-
ity we now have and we must not let
this industry escape US.
There are sixty lots yet to sell to Sc
cure the plant and our people awake to
the importance of acting at once.

Ex-GoS. Horace Doies, of Iowa, is
still sticking pins in the sixteen to one
tires of the silverites. In letter made
public on October ,12 he discusses his
new bullion basis theory and concludes
as follows:
1T is said that no plan of the char
acter would be in accord with the Chi
cago platform. That is true. But the
Chicago platform has had its day in
court before the tribunal of last resort.
Must democrats, to be loyal, adhere tc
it forever? The objection is at variance
with the whole theory of our form OF
government. If valid elections would
settle nothing, majorities would cease
to rule, and when n political issue was
once joined it would go on until one or
the other of the parties to it was total
~ aanihilated."

THE KLONDIKE EPIDEMIC
The Whole Country Is Now EIi-
iering from the Gold Fever
Thousands Expect to Accumulate
Wealth, Some by Digging for Ii,
others by Buying Min
ing shares.
Especial Correspondence.l

It's q veritable disease, this Klondike
craze. Wherever you go, people talk
about Alaska gold and the riches to be
had for the mere picking up. Although
the season is far advanced, hundreds of
intrepid men, made mad by the greed
for yellow nuggets, and daring women
in search of independence and wealth,
are determined to reach Alaska's shores
during the present season.
The tales of hardship and privation
told by miners who have returned from
the new Eldorado have no deterrent eff
feet. Each one of the embryo argonauts
thinks that he or she will succeed in
crossing the ice-clad passes of Alaska
in safety. Each has doubts about the
success of his fellow travellers, but in
his own good fortune he has implicit
confidence.
Last Saturday met young fellow
who had just arrived in Chicago from
Dawson City. He had money in his
purse and plenty of words in his mouth.
Like the rest of the Klondikers whose
sayings have found their way into print,
lie volunteered the information that the
Yukon and Stickeen river gold fields
were simply ineXhaustible and that
men familiar with mining could not fail
to get rich. "provded"-and this pro-
viso seems regular stock in trade
"they can endure the rigors of the
climate and have plenty of provisions
and clothing"
Then the picking up of gold nuggets
is not exactly what some of the en-
thusiastic prospectors seem TO think it
is. Before the nuggets can be picked
up, the ground has to be thawed out.
This is something of task when you
consider that placer gold is always
found next to bedrock, from six to thir-
ty feet below the frozen Arctic surface.
big fires are built at night" so ono
man describes the operation, "and al
lowed to burn 12 hours. 1t takes one
cord to the fire. When the ashes are
removed the ground is found thawed a
few inches. The loose gravel is removed
and the fires rekindled. This process Is
kept up. The wood is carried half a
mile in some cases." But coupled with
this information comes the assertion.
that there are still thousands of easily
reached claims in Alaska and the North
west Territory which will pay as high
as $4,000 a year to the man who will
work them.
A promise like this knocks out all
fear of danger, and makes appear tri-
fling the specter of starvation which
hung about the Klondike last winter,
when -four was sold for S1.2o pound
and five pounds of lard brought S13;
when miners had to pay Sl.5o for cup
of alleged coffee and ham sandwich;
and when 200 men, with 81 100000 worth

of gold dust and nuggets among them,
came within an ace of actual starva-
ton.
Half of the terrors of the journey
from Dyea, the new port of entry north
of Juneau. across the Chilkoot pass to
Dawson City has never been told.
Hundreds of those now on the way, and
hundreds of those about to start, will
either not survive the trip or for
ever injure their health. But once
inoculated with the Klondike virus,
nothing will stop fortune seeker from
attempting to reach the fabled region.
Some will succeed in getting there.
Some will "strike it rich" About them
we shall hear much next summer. The
unfortunates who may fall by the way
side and those to whom the bowels of
the earth shall yield none of their
riches will suffer the obscurity which
is the inevitable result of failure.
How universal the gold fever is is evil
denced by superficial glance at the
list of names of those who have already
started for the north and those who
are about to start. There is, first of all,

in the conviction that Fortune is wait
ing in Alaska to shower auriferous gifts
upon him. Then we have Lucky Bald.
