I But-and this is a very important but
unless the traveller lands at St
Michaels not later than August 2j hs
stands good chance (or a bad onc
rather) of finding the Yukon closed by
ice. In that case he can choose between
spending the eight winter months on
the bleak sea coast of ST. Michaels or OF
walking 1900 miles on the Yukon to the
mines as soon as the river is frozen
over. In this case he will require a
pack of Indian dogs and one or two In,
dian bipeds to make the journey.
The Juneau route is the other way to
the Klondyke. IT is more direct and
1000 miles shorter than the ocean
route, but can be taken best in the win
ter and only by men Injured to hard
ships. In this case, too, Seattle is the
starting point. A coastwise steamer
t; lies the traveller to Juneau, 900 miles,
where the outfit can be purchased.
From Juneau to Dyea is another 100
Iniles, then two trips taking eight TO
ten days. At Dyea the Chilkat India Us
can be engaged to assist the traveller
over Chilkat pass-and having safely
crossed it he must build a boat to navi-
gate. the lakes and streams, because be
has a journey of about 700 miles 10
reach the mines after leaving Chilkat.
In the winter the boat gives place to
snowshoes and the dog sled.
AS we have said, this direct course is
only for stalwarts, but indeed none else
should think of going to the Klondyke
and the fatigue and hardships of such
a journey will test even their best en-
ergies.
The expense Of the trip is also worthy
of consideration. On the ocean route
the fare from Chicago to Circle City,
the nearest point to the Klondyke, is
about $3.50. But the cost of freight on
the Yukon from the ocean to the mines
may be calculated at 35 cents per pound,
aud as the prospective miner will re-
quire one years provisions, which, with
tools, etc, will weigh one ton, this item
Will be an expensive one. In other
words, the cost Of getting there" ready
TO work will involve an outlayof about
81 800. That there is abundance of gold
is certain, and stout-hearted men can
get it, but it takes such to fill the neces-
sary conditions.

DEBs PEOPLE WANT BLOOD
And Nothing Else Will Satisfy
 Their Frenzied Souls.

CHICAGO, Sept. 13.-Meetings of the various branches of the enewly-organ- ized Social Democracy were held last night to discuss the recent Ha2elt0n (Pal tragedy and some decidedly lurid language Was indalged i'll by the speakers. Resolutions were passed by Branch No. ,, which con tained the following:
 "rhe blood of an idle and useless aristocracy is he most convenient medium for nourlshing the tree of liberty. An eye for an eye and q tooth for q tooth. For every miner killed and wounded n millionaire should be treated in the same man ner. The millionaire class is respon- sible for the slaughter of September 10, and we regard the torch as the most successful weapon to wield against them.'
 Fitzgerald Murphy, president Of Branch No ?, made q speech in which he said:
 "The miners should carry arms and use them, too. The time has come to meet force with force. I should have told them to shoot to kill l would kill twenty millionaires today"
 Strong condemnation resolutions were also passed by branch No. l, and some frey speeches made, T P. Quinn said:
 "I will not carry a musket; will carry torch and I knife and 1 will carry both as far as can.
 Leroy NJ. Goodwin, E. y Debs' right-hand man and q director of the national board Of the Social Democracy, in the course of q speech said:
 T would attack property with the torch; I would destroy their fine palaces. Let us rebel when men are shot down as they were in Pennsyl- vania
 Several indignation meetings were held in the Polish quarter, and reso- lutions passed condemning the shooting of the Hazelton miners and appealing to the United States gov ernment for protection.
