Here is an interesting piece of informa-
ton with regard to Eugene Debs' social
democracy colony: Gov Rogers of WASH
ington, talking of the matter a few days
ago, said: Il have actual knowledge
that some of the railroads have offered
the progenitorg Of the colony money and
assistance to induce them to settle in
Washington; also that special induce
ments have been held out to the colonists
by Eastern Washington land syndicates. 3"
Does that account for the milk in the CO.
coanut? Is the redoubtable Debs. the
zoe Of railroads and the implaeable enemy
o. corporations, the agent Of railroads and
syndicates?

A Sailed MINE.

Klondike Bubble Collapsed Near the 500.
Sault Ste. Marie, Aug. l3.-For sev.
eral days there has been great excite
ment here and at the Canadian 500
over the reported discovery of placer
gold mine on the Mlssissauga river,
near Thessalon, Ont, which assayed
800 in gold to the ton.
According to the report it was an
other "Klondike," and many prospec-
tors made preparations to start for the
newly discovered gold fields.
The bubble burst today, when a well
known Canadian mineral expert re-
turned from an examination of the
mine with the news that it had been
''sated."
i he mine, which contains some gold,
was discovered some years ago. Last
winter company was formed, the
stockholders including well known res
idents of the Canadian 500, Thessolon
and Toronto.
Recently an agent took alleged SAM
Piles from the mine to Toronto and en-
deavored to dispose of the mine to To-
ronto capitalists. An assay of the sam
pie showed 5000 to the ton. An expert
was at once dispatched to the mine,
and the capitalists agreed TO purchase
the mine at big price if the experts
report was favorable.
The expert found that the mine did
not match the sample in richness. He
communicated this intelligence to the
Toronto capitalists. The latter then
obtained miscroscOpical examination of
the sample and discovered that it had
been "salted" with gold filings, con-
tanning an alloy of copper, such as is
found in gold currency. The deal was
declared off.
The expert who visited the mine says
that sand as rich as the alleged sample
might possibly be found in a pocket,
et he has no doubt but that the mine
vas sailed. There is no positive proof
against any one, but men at Thessalon
and Toronto make charges against each
thCr.
There is great excitement. 1t is ex-
pected there will soon be other interest
NJ developments.
