THE reports ofnative demonstrations
against Hawaiian annexation, wit
messed or to be witnessed in Honolulu
and elsewhere by American senators
visiting the islands, should be read in
the light of the fact that Claus Spreck-
els and the sugar trust sre spend
ing money like water to get up such
Spreckels alone is
asserted to be willing to spend 81 ,OO0,-
600 to defeat annexation. The free adj
mission of Hawaiian sugar, which will
follow annexation, will be perpetual
drawback on the schemes of the sugar
king and his associates for still further
bleeding the sugar consumers Of the
United States. Senators who permit
themselves to imagine that the opposi-
ton of Spreckles to annexation is
grounded in anything else than pure
selfishness, or who accept the native
demonstrations he is getting up as
evidence of the unpopularity of the an
scheme in Hawaii, will be
credited at home with an intense will
lingness to be deceived.

The Official Paper Of San Juan County.
THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 10th, 1897.
KEEP AWAY FROM KLONDYKE NOW.

Flour has supplanted gold as king
I'm the Klondyke now. The latest re-
ports from the Eldorado of the Arctic
indicate that there is many a miner
there who may be glad to exchange
his bags of gold for bags of flour before
the ice of another winter goes out OF
the Yukon. 1t seems almost certain
that there will be shortage of food
amounting almost, if not quite, to
famine in that desolate region this
winter, and that hundreds of men and
women who have left comfortable
homes to join in the mad rush for gold
will be confronted by one of the most
terrible situations imaginable before
relief can reach them, if they remain
on the Yukon this winter. And tits
condition has been brought about very
largely by the greed of the two rich
companies which have virtual me
nopoly of the transportation and trad
ing facilities along the great river; not
because they are responsible for the
stampede of the past two months, but
because much of the valuable freight
space on their steamers and barges,
the only ones on the river, which
should have been filled with the pro-
visions most needful in that region has
been given up to whiskey and other
accessories of the DEVILS work. 1t is
reported that the stores of these two
companies at Dawson were closed sew
eral weeks ago because they had moth
ing more to sell, and that all the pro-
visions which may yet arrive there
before the river freezes had even then
been bought and paid for. And yet
there are thousands of men struggling
desperately to get over the great noun
tain wall between the coast and the
chain of lakes leading to the Yukon,
a great many of them poorly supplied
with food and relying upon buying
what they may need at Dawson or
other trading points that they may
reach, and relying also upon being
able to provide themselves with COM
Portable shelter for the long, dark win
ter. 1t is not too late to stop, at the
Sound ports and Dyea and Skaguay,
the mad rush of many hundreds, and
in the name of humanity it ought to
be done.

THE reduction in the number of
failures gives another evidence of re-
turning prosperity. They were 20 per
cent less in last month than they were
in June, 1896, and % per cent less in
liabilities, while the liabilities were
only one-half of those of June, 1896
The above relates to manufacturers,
while the general statement of COM
mercial failures also indicates a fall
ing off in number and in liabilities.
