A WORD TO THE WISE.

In warning the eager gold hunters
of the privations to be encountered In
the Klondyke regions, the Portland
Oregonian goes so far as to say that
if the present rush for the tabled
Alaskan frontier continues for any
length OF time it will inevitably result
in one Of the greatest tragedies ever
known In American history.
The light which this prominent
newspaper Of the Northwest throws
upon the situation cannot be prudent.
ly ignored. Says the Oregonian, in
dealing with the characteristics Of the
Klondyke region:
"Life there IS possible during the
winter only as careful preparation is
made to support it. Food, clothing
and shelter are indispensable. Ex-
posure there is no trifle. as In our
mild climates. Exposure there means
sure and sudden death. Along the
Alaskan and British Columbian coast
the climate tempered by the ocean, is
not severe; but the gold fields lie in
a vast river basin behind high noun
tain range, at great distance from the
coast, and very far toward the north,
where all the rigorous conditions Of an
arctic winter prevail. Water will not
aow; the streams are frozen to the
bottom. Even in summer the ground
thaws only at the surface. Trans
portation over mountain ranges, where
rugged trails furnish the only lines OF
passage, is SO slows costly and difficult
that scarcity Of supplies is inevitable
If large numbers succeed in getting
over the mountain ranges into thu
basin of the Yukon, accessible will
difficulty in the summerard not at al
accessible in the winter, 1t may be SCI
down as certain that the greater pro
portion will perish"
In spite Of the wise counsels whicl
have proceeded from those who full.
understand the difficulties and priva
tions to be encountered In the KlOn
dyke region, there are thousands VIII
are now on their way to the Alaska
frontier and thousands who expect t
leave in IL few days. The gold fever
something that reason is powerless t
control and that experience alone ca

CONGRESSM LOVE.
HIS IMPRESSION OF THE NEW TARIFF
BILL ON SOUTHERN FARMERS.

Congressman VIM. F. Love, Of the
Sixth district, arrived in jackson
from Washington Wednesday morn.
ing over the A. & V. r. R.. and in an
interview with a Clarion-Ledger re-
porter stated among other things that
in his opinion the new tariff bill is
the worst ever passed, and that the
country will feel its effects within
three months. Prosperity may come
in a certain measure" he added, "but
it will result from natural causes and
not the Dingley bill. A large num-
Der Of Republicans were opposed to
the measure, but they were whipped
into line by the party leaders, and,
above all, Hanna reigns supreme.
The new duty on cotton bagging, ETC.,
will be perceptible to the Southern
farmers, but the original schedule was
very greatly reduced"
AS regards State politics, Mr.. Love
said the general impression in Wash
ington is to the effect that the admin
istration has recognized the Lynch
faction in the Second, Fifth and Sixth
districts, but Hill claims that this
applies only to the fourth class offices.
Just before Congress adjourned
President Mckinley sent In a specia
currency message, but the men Of al
parties regarded it merely as piec'
of taffy to the Democrats and fre'
silver, and it has had no effect what
ever.
Mr.. Love will remain in Jackson
two or three days on business. He II
well known and popular at the Capi
tai, and his friends are happy to not'
that he is 10 the best Of health ant
| spirits.

FEATHERS.
New York Times.

New York Times. ~
A Massachusetts, woman who wears
feathers is now an offender against the
law and liable to a fine. In this and
other States there is always well-de-
fined il not very formidable opposition
to the use in millinery Of the bodies
and plumage Of birds, because 1t is be-
lieved that so long as that custom is
tolerated just so long will the killing
OF song birds and insectivorOus birds
continue. The Audubon Society and
its many branches have labOred to
prevent this supposedly enormous and
ruthless slaughter for many years In
many States, hut to little avail. Aged
men and school boys and thousands OF
poor folks who would never dream Of
wearing feathers have willingly signed
the pledges prepared for the society;
many women have signed them, too,
and then thoughtlessly forgotten their
promise not to wear birds feathers.
But the Audubon Society and senti-
ment are alike powerless against
fashion. There has been no lack of
laws against the unjustflable killing
of song birds and insect destrOyers,
but, so far as We know, a law prohib-
iting the wearing Of feathers has never
before got In the statute books Of any
State. A bill Of the same purport as
the new Massachusetts, law was passed
in both houses Of the New York
Legislature last session, but was not
signed by the Governor.

THEY ARE RETURNING.
Atlanta Con stitution.

Atlanta Constitution.
The New York Sun, which has had
the courage of Its convictions to 60 at
once into the Republican party, ini
stead of parading under the false
cloak OF gold democracy, seems to be
wrought up about the present position
OF the Brooklyn Eagle.
The Eagle is another 0he OF those
Democratic newspapers which went
wrong last November. It was led 10.
to mistake BY environment which did
not not enable 1t to see its way clearly
at that time, but since then 1t has be-
come SO evident that the boiling des
mocracy was but an adjunct Of repub'
licanism, run by the agents OF that
party to accomplish the most good In
which it felt unable otherwise tn
carry, that the Eagle has been forced
to resume its place with the regular
democracy. or course this action OF
the Eagle is displeasing to the Repub.
licans and their allies. These men do
not wish Democratic success Of any
kind, and only run the bolting Demo-
cratic side show as matter Of diver
sion. But the people all over the
country are being awakened. They
have escaped from tile snares which
were set for their feet last November,
and they are rallying to the support OF
the 6,5OO,OOO Democrats who register
ed their fealty to the regular democ'
racy.
The Sun Ia an able fighter. 1t al.
ways hits above the belt and openly
proclaims what its true policy is. 1t
might have remained in the middle
ground vauntlng the cloak Of the so.
called "national" democracy, but 1t
preferred to 20 honestly into republic
canism. It's example Is one which
some other papers might follow with
profit, for while they might be wrong
in Republican ranks, they would at
least be honest in the cOlors they fol-
lowed.
The Brooklyn Eagle. seeing that the
choice was one between republicauism
and democracy, chose democracy pure
and simple; hence these denunciations
of the organs of Wall Street.
