The PrOspeetOr's Flight NOrthward.

Now again is coming the season when the prospector takes his flight north ward A few months ago he was driven out of Alaska and from the mountains of British Columbia, Washington, Idaho, and northern Oregon, when the snow fell, and made his way to the more con- genial winter climates from southern Oregon to Mexico.
 As much as all the West from the Black Hills to Vancouver Island, Colo rado and New Mexico to California and from Alaska to Mexico has been gone over by prospectors these many years, there are being made more discoveries than ever before of mines that will be of lasting value and of new districts that will attract the worlds attention. The prospector of to-day in spirit and charac- ter is much like the prospector of years ago, but he knows more and the results of his better work is shown in the con- tinuous reports of strikes being made all over the western side of the continent. What is most significant is the fact that a very large proportion of these are made in districts that have been gone over by the prospector time and again for the past quarter of century or more. The Fraser river excitement took thousands from California in the dfties only to be mil ,aoIorD h.. ods the mines promise to yield large re- turns and are attracting the attention of capital.
 In the Black Hills rich mines are being found in rock that was passed over be- cause it was not like that of the first dis coveries Ia Wyoming thousands of acres of placer are being exploited and hundreds of thousands of dollars is being spent ln water ditches. Yet Wyoming has never been known as gold mining state. In Nevada the same story is be. ing told Tn New Mexico and Arizona the demand tor copper has been the cause of prospecting for ore bodies car rying that metal, with the result that enough promising discoveries have been made to greatly add to the wealth of those territories So in Montana Idaho, Colorado, Alaska and other parts of British Columbia, new districts, new mines and unexpected formations carry ing valuable minerals are being con- stantly discovered by the prospector.
 Yet, for all he is doing, he receives lit tie reward and little credit. Capital comes in, helps him out with "grub stake" and enables him to go on again like the Wandering Jew and the capital ist goes to senate or Europe-M. & s Press.

It is reported that the Clondyke placers, on the Yukon, have been found to lie on the British side of the line, and that the miners, both American citizens and British subjects, hail this with de- light The Alaska Searchlght says :: "For years the Yukon has been large gold-producing region, but not one dollar has our government expended in build ing trails or assisting miners in any way All it has ever done has been to give these people Deputy Collectors of Intern al Revenue and Customs, and a poor mail service one season. Now there is to be radical change. The Canadian Government will doubtless pursue it's wise and liberal policy, build trails, pro- vide courts, etc. It is lamentable fact, but nevertheless true, that the Yukoners, before another year has rolled around, will sing "God Save the Queen" more heartily than ever they sang My Coun try, 'Tls of Thee"

Abandonment of c Social Experiment.

The London Times says: 1.-Two schemes for insurance against want of employment have existed for two or three years past in Switzerland, one in the canton of Berne and one in that of St. Gall. The former was voluntary, but in St. Gall ths laborer was compelled to insure. The American consuls at Chem nitz and St. Gall have both recently re. ported on the subject, and the former states that men whose work is steady and likely to continue so complain bit terly that they are compelled to support in idleness others whose labor is uncer- tain, but who, for that reason, are better paid when they are at work. ''It is not in the nature of things for such a system to succeed, even among so loyal, loving and gentle folk as the Swiss The ef- fort is not vain if it will teach the thoughtless how hard it is to make laws, or to institute any system that is to take the place of thrift and economy during the days when work is plentiful Some time after this report the consul at St. Gall wrote that the experiment. had been abandoned at the instance of the labor CTS themselves. He says they found that system which insured against loss of work resulted Tn the promotion of laziness and idleness In fact, knowl
 edge of the existence of this system of insurance had drawn to St. Gall con- siderable number of unemployed from other parts of Switzerland. with the ob ject of obtaining support at the expense of resident laborers.' Hence the system disappears on and after .Jnne 30 next"
