lating him and expressing their ap-

Major Wood has always been q
man of pronounced political views
with the courage of his convictions.
1t is fact worthy OF note that Major
Wood is Republican from principle.
He believed in the theory, methods
and policy of the party; and when 1t
was unpopular to be q Republican he
ADVOCATED and proclaimed them
throughout his district and his State
and when called, he, at his own ex-
pense, went where he was most need
ed. His untiring work for the party
commended him to the Governor.
Then Major Wood is as well quail
fed as any Republican in the State.
He will not be fluent speaker on the
floor, neither will he be correct In
rhetoric or grammar, but he will
make himself understood and win
draw his bills with an accuracy
which will be susceptsble of one con-
struction and this cannot be said Of
oil Senators.
While Major Wood is strictly q
Republican we do not believe he will
advocate partisan methods to the det-
riment Of the people's interest. With

Democratic maxim, equal rights to

WHAT MCKINLEY's ADMISSIONS SUGGEST
The President recognizes that pre-
vailing conditions are unsatisfactory.
He refers to the fact that willing la
borers are idle and that loss is entail
ed upon useful enterprises.
He admits that the country is suf-
fering from industrial disturbances
and needs speedy relief. BY follow
ing this admission of the financial
questions he seoms to suggest that the
money question is the paramount
issue.
His promises to endeavor constant
ly to secure international bimetalism
is rebuke to those who think that
the gold standard should be main
tained because of it's own merits. The
system which is so bad as 10 justify
and early and earnest attempt to get
rid of it cannot be defended. But
his declaration that, bad as it IL, it
must be endured until help comes
from abroad, will be discouragiDg 10
those who have ceased to expect in
ternational cooperation can be secur-
ed through persuasion.
HUMILIATING REFLECTION.
} 1t Is humiliating to think that after
more than a century of national exis-
tepce we must depend upon the right
OF petition instead of relying upon the
right to legislate. If any part Of our
in dustrial depression is due TO the
gold standard, then it is certain that
to that extent the depression will con-
tiuue unless "the other great CONNER
cisl powers of the world" join US i'm
restoring bimetallism.
1t is to be regretted that the Execu-
tive did not define his position I0ore
clearly upon the question Of paper
money. Ifhe had openly advised the
retirment ofthe greenbacks the people
could be considering the question, but
instead of doing that directly he OBJ
scures his purpose by using the phras-
eology commonly employed in bank
ers' conventions.
FAvoRITE SCHEME OF BANKERS.
His reference to arrangements"
which are temporary in theiY na-
ture" and his anxiety to relieve the
Government from necessity of main
tanning so large a gold reserve" are
familiar phrases to those who have
watched the effort which the national
bankers have made to secure the right
to issue all the paper currency Of the
country. The commission is favor
ite scheme of the financiers, but q
commission cannot settle SO impor-
tant a question as that now before
the people.
If a commission is appointed each
member will have fixed opinion be-
fore he enters upon the work, and
each:senator and Member Of Congress
will vote his own opinion, without re-
gardlto the report of the commission I.
Shall we have bank paper or Gov
ernment paper? That is the question
suggested, but not directly asked.
Il That question must be settled by
the people through their elected repre-
sentatives, and commissions will have
but little effect. ... .....

AN IMPORTANT DECISION.
Secretary Bliss, OF the Interior De-
partment Has Decided That
Marble is Mineral.

Washington, Sept. 10.-Secretary OF the
Interior Bliss has rendered decision
which affects all western railway grants
in the case of the Pacific Coast Marble
company against the Northern Pacific
Railroad company and the state of Wash
lngton.
1t involves the title to marble lands in
Washington, portion of which were
claimed by the railroad company as in
demnity for lands lost, and a portion by
Washington as part of the school land
grant.
The secretary has decided that the
marble is mineral within the meaning of
both the mining laws and the grants, and
lie, therefore, not subject to selection or
patent by either the railroad company
or the state under the terms of their
grants.
The secretary has also decided that this
ruling applies to all substances known
as mineral by the recognized authori-
fies

TIDlNGS FROM KLONDIKE.
the People Mt Dawson City In the
Face-IndignatiOn ion Meetings.

San Francisco, Sept. 10.-The Alaska
Commercial company has received news
that the steamer Cleveland from St.
Michaels has passed Vancouver island
She reports that the Excelsior has PIT
back to Unalaska in disabled condi-
tion.
The Examiner prints an extra contain
ing the following news from Dawson
City: Otter Point, B. O., Sept. 10.-The
steamer Cleveland has arrived from St.
Miohaels. The miners on board and the
officers tell story of disaster and dis
tress at Dawson. Famine threatens the
adventurous men and women, who have
made their way to Klondike. Enormous
prices are being paid for food at Dawson
and it is impossible that more than four
vessels with provisions can reach Daw
son before the river is mass of ice.
Captain Hall of the Cleveland, says that
he has 100000 in the safe. The purser
believes that he can account for $15O,00O
on board.
The Cleveland has some passengers Of
the P. B. Weare on board. The Weare
left Dawson City in time to connect with
the Portland had she not met with mis-
hap and struck on the fats above Circle
City. They report that on July 25 the
stores of the Alaska Commercial company
and North American Trading & Transpor-
tation company had closed their doors
and announced that they had no more
food to sell. Drunkenness, gambling and
disorder were rampant and the most con.
servative of observers predict serious
consequences.
At st. Michael's there are not enough
structures to accommodate the crowd and
scores Of people are living in tents.
Shortly before the Cleveland left st.
Michael's two expeditions, those of
National City and South Coast, held in
dignation meetings threatening dire ven.
geance upon those who brought them
there and were unable to carry them
further. They cannot possibly reach
Dawson before next spring.
Soon after leaving st. Michael's the
Excelsior was caught on the dangerous
fats of the Yukon and broke two blades
of her propeller. At Unalaska, the Oleve-
land found the Excelsior undergoing re-
pairs. II is probable that she left Un.
alaska last Monday to resume her jour
ney.
Shortly before the Cleveland left for
Seattle, the United States revenue cutter
Bear put into St. Michaels with Captain
Whltesides, his wife, first and fourth Off
GERS and four seamen of the steam whaler
Nevach.
The Nevaoh was caught in an ioe pack
in the Arctic ocean. Of her crew ~ we're
lost. Thirty.one we're crushed in the ice
and frozen to death.
When the Humboldt stopped at Un-
alaska on her journey to ST. Mlchaels
the passengers we're in open rebellion.
They began TO realize that it would be
impossible to reach Dawson before next
spring, and they knew that misery await
I'd them at St. Michaels. There we're
open threats against W. D. Wood, or
ganizer ana manager of the expedition.

Encourage ment For the Feeble.

So long as the failing embers of vitality
are capable of being rekindled into a
warm and genial glow, just so long as
there is hope for the weak and emaciated
invalid. Let him not, therefore, des-
pond, but derive encouragement from
this, and from the further fact that there
is restorative most potent in renewing
the dilapidated powers of broken down
system. Yes, thanks to its unexampled
tonic virtues, Hostetter's Stomach Bit
ters is daily revivlng strength in the
bodies and hope in the minds of the
feeble and nervous. Appetite, refreshing
sleep, the acquisition of flesh and color,
are blessings attendant upon the repara-
tive processes which this priceless invig-
GRANT speedily initiates and carries to a
successful conclusion. Digestione is
restored; the blood fertilized, and sus.
tenance afforded to each life sustaining
organ by the Bitters, which is inoffensive
even to the faminine palate, vegetable in
composition, and thoroughly safe. Use
it, and regain vigor!
