SUGAR TARIFF.

fond Of sugar because it is sweet, and
they use lot of it. But just the same
we believe that the people of the State
of California would be better off if a
tariff is placed on the sugar of the
Sandwich Islands We believe in pro-

should protect the California growers

a great industry will be established
This is the true theory of protection. 1t

| FOR SHAMEi LOS ANGELES.
San Diego Tribune: Los Angeles
may be proud of the distinction she
achieved on Sunday afternoon in the
way of bull fighting local paper
says of that affair: 1T was only $40
O'Clock and already one horse and rid
er had been lifted clear off the ground
by the bull, who managed with singu-
| lar adroitness to miss the rider, while
succeeding in burying his horns deep
in the horses belly. The crowd was
| highly delighted with the result of this
performance and applauded vociferous-
| ly the efforts of the horse to avoid
| stepping on his entrails, which We're
| dragging on the ground. The
horse which was so badly gored was
shot" Finally the police stopped the
| fight. If the city of Los Angeles has a
society for the prevention of cruelty to
| animals, the officers of that organiza-
ton ought to be ashamed of them
selves. A few weeks ago Los Angeles
newspapers deplored prize fights as
| brutal. The torturing of dumb brutes
| is ten times more horrid. This Los
Angeles bull fight was on par with
| Spanish and Mexican brutalities and
appears to be SO popular in Los Ange-
les that even the police did not make
arrests. The armorial bearings of the
Los Angeles society for the protection
of animals should represent a gored
horse with its entrails dragging on the
| ground.

HE MADE A SUMMER TOUR.
What an Idaho Man Saw I'm n Quick
Journey Through the kIondiSe.

The men who have gone into the Klon-
dixie on sightseeing trip and returned 10
tell the story are as yet very scarce IN this
neck OF the woods. though II is likely that
there viii be plenty OF them later on. MIR.
A. j. Green. a leading lawyer of Moscow.
Idaho. arrived from Dawson City on the
steamer Cleveland. September Il. He is a
close observer. and, as he is neither a dis
appointed miner nor a bloated nugget
owner, his deductions are free from preju-
dice.
Il went into the Yukon country last
May" said Mr.. Green. making my way
over the Chilkoot pass. l looked over the
mines in the Klondike region and found
them TO be very rich. but very limited in
extent In comparison with my expe stations.
There are loo rich claims on Bonanza creek
and 40 on Eldorado very rich. but. Of
course. they are all corralIed. and it takes
money 20 secure them or share in them.
For new man TO so to prospecting is out
of the question. One cannot prospect In
summer. because the minute he digs hole
il fills full of water. Prospecting on the
surface Is OF little good. for man must so
10 bedrock to find out what he has got. and
bedrock is from II 20 so feet deep. There
is about one foot of soft moss and under
that the ground is frozen. Then comes
10 TO u feet OF muck, which has TO be taken
out with a pick, which Is very slow work.
Below that is sand and gravel, which is
thawed out with fires This too, is ex-
tremely slow work until a miner gets a
hole large enough to build an extensive
fire.
II found 1t very hard TO exist in the
Klondike country. The provisions one gets
to eat are very hard on a person; no fresh
meats. except occasionS moose and fresh
fish. the latter only lasting for a short time.
There are no fresh vegetables at all. l saw
a man who took in some potatoes sell them
for 81 per pound. Eggs are worth $3.50 per
dozen and eggs in restaurants cost 81 each.
What little moose meat there is sells at
10 cents per pound by the quarter and fresh
fish are 50 cents a pound,
zone notable feature observed on arrival
at Dawson City is that every man who has
been there over winter and has made any
money wants TO get out and the more
money he has the more anxious he is TO so.
Nearly every one who has a mine wants
to sell and come out In the spring. and
those who can't sell look forward to next
springs cleanup. when they are sure 10
come
There is not much building in Dawson
City for town lots and building logs have
been so high that the luxury OF a house
could not be afforded. The people are
nearly all living In tents. and ! do not
know what they VIII do this winter. Wood
was S14 per cord when left. and everybody
predicted that 1t would be $50 a cord this
winter. Wages are $40 to sl5 per day. but
when one considers that the laborer has to
pay such exorbitant prices for everything,
he doesn't come out much ahead"

THE GOLD COMMISSIONER.
Justice in the KIondixe Melted Ont on
short Notice.


short Notice.
In the rush OF news about the wonderful
gold discoveries in the Klondlke there has
been mention made once In a while about
the gold commissioner" but the public Is
not fully aware how important a parsonage
he Is. II is indeed a hard matter FOR people
IN the United States 10 think Of disputes in
volving large wealth being settled prompt
~. and that settlement putting an end to
sn clubbing. According to reports from
the Klondlke the gold commissioner wields
a power that is fairly astonishing In that
ne listens 20 cases involving ownership 70
gold claims. and renders his decisions
promptly. II there has not been some big
mistake in reports. his decision is final.
and the adjustment that ne announces be-
comes the law that all Interested parties
must abide by.
A case in direct line is that OF Ron Craw-
ford. formerly clerk Of the municipal court
in this city. A year ago Michael Kelly. a
well known Seattle pioneer. went 70 the
Kondike with his son. Father and son To-
Gated several claims on different creeks
with the understanding that they would
share the proceeds equally. The elder
Kelly decided 20 return 70 Seattle last

young Kelly. not knowing what his fa-her

When the elder Kelly found out what had
taken place. he sad that Crawford had
