CLONDYKE.

San Francisco Herald and Market Re
view 1t has only taken about two
weeks to make Clondyke famous
throughout the world. 1t took months
in '4S to do the same for California.
This shows. how the world has pro-
crossed since then. 1t is now probably
the most famous gold producing section
of the earth The exact amount pro
duced this year cannot now be told,
but it is probably three and half or
four million dollars. This is the re-
s,1lt of the labor of a few thousand
people in a small spot where the earth
eaarns 70 he scanned with gold. The
product for next year is estimated at
S10OG0, 600 1t will no doubt equal, II
not exceed, that. The population will
be increased by many thousands before
next spring. There will be between
twenty and thirty thousand people be-
fore the close of another year. The new
trade Will give rise to much increased
activity in commercial, mercantile and
shipping circles in San Francisco and
the sound ports, but this city Will take
the lions share of the new trade. Were
the new gold fields nearer civilization
and more accessible there would soon
be concentrated there an immense pop
ulation. AS it is. Clondyke is as near
civilization to-day as California was
i'm 1913. But the same results cannot
follow. except for its brief summer, as
it is bound in the chain of external
snow and ice where the ground never
thaws a short distance below the sur
face. There is no room for any activ-
itv outside of that called forth by min
ing. After the gold mining era has
passed away there can be no revival
no agricultural or pastoral renaissance.
The unbroken solitude which has pre-
vailed for untold ages in these wilds
must again resume its sway.
No one can possibly tell the extent
of the new deposits. The gold bear
ing country is certainly not confined
TO the limited district of Clondyke 1t
probably extends over a large area of
the country, and though richer fields
may not be found. no doubt other and
extensive gold fields will be discovered.
The discovery and working viii test

treasure seekers may possess. With

A VALUABLE SOUVENIR.

Humboldt Standard: The State Board
of Trade has published large edl-
ton of a handsomely illustrated and
neatly printed book concerning the
State of California. It treats briefly
of the early history of the State, its
commercial position, scenery, climate,
forests. general resources, mining, ag-
ricultureand horticulture. The book was
prepared under the personal supervis-
ion of w H. Mills, who knows more
of the State than any other man With
in it's borders. The publication IS
unique. The different articles were pre-
pared by persons peculiarly fitted to
give the best information on the sub
jects assigned.

THE WORST IS OVER.

Riverside Globe: The feeling that
the worst is over, and that a general
forward movement in business can now
be counted on, is not confined to any
one section. Great crops of cotton in
the South, and immense wheat yields
in the West gladden. those sections
where the hard times have been heav-
lest. and with fair prices presage sure
and safe return of better times among

Ukiah Press: Despite the enormous
importations Of manufactured goods, the
manufacturers of the country are show
ing. an improved business condition. Re
ports from various sections show an in
crease in the number of hands employed
and hours occupied. Reports from Dun's
Review covering the failures for the
month of June show that the failures
among the manufacturers were only 23S
against 2S4 in June of last year while
the liabilities were only S6,365,010

THE FOOL JOKER.

Los Angeles Express: Carrier pigeons
are reported found every day now, bear
ing alleged messages from Aeronaut
Andree, who is DESTROYS of fastening his
balloon to the northern end of the earth's
axis Unfortunately some of these pig
cons are reported to have arrived before
the airship captain left terra firma. On
that account the public is little inclined
to place credence in these latest reports.
No subject is free in these days from
the practical joker and the public has
been SO often fooled by the cry, THE
wolff" that it no longer attempts to
separate the true from the false.

A TRIBUTE.

Sacramento County Ledger: Fred.
Croker, as he was known by all Sac
ramento, was man who was held in
high esteem by all his old friends who
knew him as a boy and a man Dur
ing his young days he drew around him
a cotorie of young friends who have al
ways remained loyal to him, and they
point with pride to the friend of their
youth and his achievements. He has
always been true to those young
friends, and never missed an opportu-
nifty to render them aid and advice
when they were in need of either. He
was a man that made many friends
and few, if any, enemies; we do not be-
lieve that he had one enemy that
had just cause to be such. He was
true Californian, hospitable, liberal,
and just He was proud Of his native
State, and did much toward its ad-
vancement. No just cause that would
in any manner advance the States In
terest suffered for lack Of funds, when
Colonel Croker was appealed to. He
was liberal to the cause of charity, too,
subscribing literally to all causes that
merited his help.

A NATTER OF POPULATION

Riverside Enterprise: One of the most
frequently presented objections to the
admission of New Mexico to statehood
is the unfitness of the majority of its
native (Mexican) population for the ou-
ties of citizenship, and the murder trial
of Martinez and his accompiices at
Clayton affords strong evidence of the
truth of this Notwithstanding that
these murderers confessed their guilt

agree upon a verdict of conviction. In
dismissing them the Judge dwelt with
scathing Indignation upon their con-
duct, hoped they would never again
serve as jurors, and then sentenced the
prisoners for life upon their own con-

To Keep It In the Family.

About four years ago Republican in
a western town, who kept a general
store, helped his wife, who is strong
Democrat, to get the appointment as
postmaster. The Office was in his store,
of course, and naturally stimulated
trade. But as a Republican is now like
~ to be appointed in her place the hus-
band thinks he might as we'll be that
Republican, and SO he has written let
ter to his congressman, in which he
says: 81 suppose there will be several
applicants for the postofice here. I
think that a change here should be
made at once. I have nothing to say
against the character of the present in
cumbent and no charges to make against
her. But, George, as you we'll know,
she is one of the most bitter Democrats
in this county. She talked and worked
for Bryan SO openly and Professionally
that I think it would be we'll to have
her fired at once, and want the place.

Senator Mason's Modesty.

A Chicago editor who was recently
in Washington paid Senator Mason a
handsome tribute as a public speaker.
Though his speeches overflow with wit
and humor, which seem to be born of
the occasion, Senator Mason prepares
them with great care. Long experience
has enabled him to judge what points
will take with his hearers. Said this
Chicago editor: "Mason had sent me a
typewriter copy of speech he was
going to deliver. In looking it over /
noticed the applause and laughter were
sprinkled very literally through it, but
thought Mason might be assuming too
much. | determined to make the test,
SO [ carried that typewriter copy with
me to the meeting where he was to
speak. I followed him line by line
Now, want to say that in not a single
case had he made a mistake. Where he
had put Great applause III parentheses
the audience justified the parentheses.
Where he had put Laughter there was
laughter, and where he had guessed
there would be Great laughter the
merrimeut was great. Where he had
adroitly made a feint of ending his
speech and then had interpolated de-
manes from his hearers to Go on,
Billy, the audience Numbered for him
to go on. The only cases where he mis-
judged were in bracketing Applause
and Laughter where actually there
were great applause and great laughter,
suppose his modesty kept him from
giving too high a decree to it. After
that speech was finished [ carried the
copy over to my office and gave instruc-
tions that thereafter Mason,s speeches
should go just as he sent them in. -
