Reports of new discoveries of gold in
Alasks continue to come in, and every
thing points to rapid development CT
that country within the next decade. 1t
was the discovery of gold in 1849 that
made California one of the great States of
the American Union; gold helped i'm.
measurably in the rapid growth and de-
velopment of Australia, and the gold of
South Africa has caused great rush of
people to that portion of the Dark Cent?
nent. Few of those who 90 to far-away
lands in search of the yellow mctal real
lie their expectations but many are I'M
able to return to the homes they have
left, and are thus compelled to seek other
means of earning IL livelihood. This was
the case in California and Australia, and
80 it will be with those who 90 to South
Africa or Alaska.
In both of these latter countries, how
ever, they will find other means Of sub
sistence than in the search of gold, and
the result will be n rapid development of
each. Alaska is a cold and cheerlcss
country, but it is rich in timber, and it's
fisheries are capable of sustaining n large
population. Hundreds of thousands of
Americans and Canadians will 90 to
Alaska in the next ten wears, ii.tho rich
gold finds continue there, and the same
energy that has made California great
fruit garden and grain producing country
will open up new sources of wealth in far
away Alaska. But. while this will no
doubt be the case. the gold of that coun-
try promises 70 be the source of untold
wealth to the United States. Much of the
land has alreay been staked off by the
geld hunters and those interested in the
mines there are already trying to dissuade
others from emigrating thither; but as
long as man can cain 800 day by
placer mining, it will be very hard to
convince him that Alaska is not good
place to 90. On the whole,it seems that

The report of the Senate committee on

NAV be necessary to obtain the release
from the Spanish government of Ona
Melton, Alfred o. Laborde and William

schooner Competitor to it's owner. There
is ample scope in the report for the exer
else of power in this case, but, as in other

been raised, it is not at all probable that

measures to carry out the report of the
committee, and, while the prisoners may
