The Official PAPER Of San Juan County
THURSDAY. JULY 29th, 1897.
"Gold, gold, gold, gold;
Hard to get and light to hold;

'GOld, gOlu, gO1u, gOiu;
Hard to get and light to hold;
Price of many a crime untold;
Good or bad a thousand fold"
THERE is little change in human ma
ture as the years come and go as re-
spects mans greed for gold. The de-
sire for gain Is the controlling influence
not alone of the commercial world but
of millions of artisans and labOrers and
tens upon tens of thousands of poor
men belonging to the genus grospector,
who penetrate the earth's remOtest fast
nesses and endure untold hardships in
search of the yellow metal, which opens
the doors to ease and comfort in every
civilized nation of the globe. The ClOn-
dyke excitement, which is ust now re-
sponsible for the hurried migration of
hundreds of gold seekers to the icy
north, is fever-a fever of mems inn
aginations, infamed by the marvellous
tales which have come down from the
region of the ice king. No such tales
supported by such exhibitions of treas
ure have reached the ears of men in
modern times. 1t is nearly fifty years
since the great rush to California began
across the great plains, over lofty
mountain chains and by way of the
isthmus of Panama. 1t was unprece-
dented in history and it is not probable
that its like will ever be seen again.
The dangers and privations encounter
ed by the Argonauts were many, but
no such obstacles confronted them as
those which loom up before the search
ers for the golden fleece in the icy basin
of the mighty Yukon. The Argonauts
were destined for a sunny clime-a
land of fruits and flowers, of milk and
honey, while the pilgrims to the Clon-
dyke are destined for a region where
anything like modern civilization is
impossible and where even the face of
the sun is hidden for half the year in
one long night of bitter cold. While it
is not disputed that few score men
have met with great good fortune there,
it should be remembered that there are
hundreds just as rigorous and diligent
and with equal chances who have
chased the will O the wisp of wealth in
the far north for years in vain.
