Walls NINE INSPECTION.
He Would Protect Labor Against
Injury From Accidents.

Among the bills introduced yester-
day was house file 270, introduced by
T. r. Vail, who is chairman of the
committee on mines and mining. The
bill is chiefly Of interest to the min
ing section of the northern part of the
state, and provides that each county
of the state where there are mines
located shall have a mine inspector,
who shall have had at least ten years
experience as a miner, who shall be
responsible to the people Of the county
for a term of two years or until his
successor is elected and whose DUTY
it shall be to examine and inspect
mines with a view to lessening the
possibility of injury to life or limb
through dangerous or exposed machin
cry etc. This inspector is to be paid
by the county and clothed with power
to order closed any mine which, in his
judgment, is dangerous.
The bill was referred to the commit
tee on mines and mining.

The action Of the 500 in protecting

ONE OF TWO WAYS.

The bladder was created for one pur-
pose, namely, a receptacle for the
urine, and as such it is not liable to
any form of disease except by one of
two ways. The first way is from i'm
perfect action of the kidneys. The Sec
ond way is from careless local treat
ment of other diseases.
CHIEF CAUSE,
Unhealthy urine from unhealthy
kidneys is the chief cause of bladder
troubles. So the womb, like the blad-
der, was created for one purpose, and
if not doctored too much is not liable
to weakness or disease except in rare
cases. 1t is situated back of and very
close to the bladder, therefore any
pain, disease or inconvenience mani
tested in the kidneys, back, bladder or
urinary passage is often, by mistake,
attributed to female weakness or womb
trouble of some sort. The error rs
easily avoided. To find out correctly,
set your urine aside for twenty-four
hours, a sediment or settling indicates
kidney or bladder trouble. The mild
and extraordinary effect of DIR. Kill
mer's Swamp Root, the great kidney
and bladder remedy, is soon realized.

preparing it for the abstraction of
the gold deposits, and to-day the
outlook is better than at any time
during the ten years of its exist
ence
Surely, the United States has
no cause to regret the wisdom of
the men who in 1867 purchased
this territory and added it to our
domain.
Here we are in the midst of
some of the grandest scenery to
be found the world over. On all
sides are high snowsclad noun
tains, while below the snow line
arc the dense green forests, the
great variety of colored grasses,
ferns and wild flowers, with ber-
rles in abundance. A temperature
at the shore line of about IS de-
grees, gradually falling to that of
perpetual ice, is surely, when
within range of the eye, most
remarkable situation The glaci-
ers curling and winding their ways
down from high upon the noun
tain tops, showing themselves
here, hidden there, reappearing
and finally stopping where the
tides and waves break off the ice
masses, constitute one of the most
Interesting of the beauties of
Alaska. The rays of sunlight
striking the glaciers at different
angles and upon varying thick
nesses of the rugged masses of
ice, form some of the grandest
spectum effects imaginable. From
one point could be counted as
many as fourteen of these glaciers,
of different sizes, and unknown
lengths, for SO jagged is the sur
face of the ice due to the crushing
and orunching as the immense
masses is squeezed slowly down
ward. and So cold the surround
ings, that no man has thus far
been to the source of any of these
larger ice streams. Their length
and course are only coniectural.
Very frequently one can see
heavy snow storms up on the
mountains, while lower down the
sun is shining brightly, or the
snow has melted into a warm rain.
A rain will, in very few min
utes, cause hundreds of streams to
come leaping down the mountain
sides from the melting snow or
ice, and displaying, as they come
in their irregular, jumpin : courses,
very pretty prismatic views.
The aurora bo-ealis is, with the
shortening of the days, becoming
more and more brilliant, and al
ready presents in ever changing
light and colors Il dazzlingly mag
nifcent spectacle, far surprising
any display of human effort. An
attempt at description of the au-
rora borealis would be useless-its
grandeur and magnificence must
be seen to be in any measure un-
Iderstood.

dians begin to catch and cure their

has converted Alaska into a con
dition similar to that of California
in 1S49. Almost daily, steamers
from San Francisco, Seattle and
Victol ia are landing from 200 to
500 miners, all intent upon max
ing a fortune in the newly-dis-
covered gold fields.
Dyea, the landing place of these
miners, is a small village at the
head of Taya inlet and at the foot
of the Chilkoot pass. The dis
tance from there TO the Klondike
is about 700 miles and under good
weather conditions takes about one
month to make the trip. From
Dyea to the top of the pass the as
cent is of the most difficult and
trying kind, and many hardy men
abandon their hopes and return
before reaching the summit. From
the pass on, the journey is over a
succession of lakes, portages, riv-
ers, and rolling Iand-and ex-
cepting cold and mosquitoes, is
frought with no grea. difficulty,
Already the winter SHOWS have
commenced and the dangers of
Chilkoot pass has become much
greater than month since, and
it is supposed that the amount OF
privation and death among the
20, 600 men now en- route to the
Klondike will be very great.
Each man has to carry his OWL
gear, as freighting is too expen-
sive to pay. It costs from 35 tc
so cents per pound to freight over
the pass and but few can pay these
charges.
The long, cold winter, the
thermometer falling to 20 degrees,
will cause many TO regret that they
ever undertook to visit the Klon-
ike gold fields.
Still the remarkable success OF
many justifes the present rush.
More than 81, 900, 600 have been
taken out during the past year,
and the output OF the present year
is supposed to be much greater.
Several men have returned after
only Il years stay with sums
ranging from $50, 600 to $3.50,
600, and claim that the dust and
nuggets were obtained with but
little labor
Until the present remarkable
deposits of the Klondike became
known, but little kno Wedge was
had of the wonderful gold mines
of Alaska; yet for many years
past the gold output of this terri
tory has annually almost paid the
purchase price paid the Russian
Government. Add to this the
valuable seal, whale and other
fisheries, the immense tracts OF
timbered lands and the as yet un-
worked beds of coal and iron
almost everywhere, and one sees
at glance the unlimited natural
wealth of this but little known
country. The famous Treadwell
gold mine near Junean-the larg-
est mine in the world-has alone
more than paid the United States
the original purchase price of
Alaska-and is monthly turning
out nearly 81, 900, 900, while its
sister mine, the Mexico, only q
half mile or less distant, is devel'
oping more and more as the vein
is opened. Night and day, all the

POLICEMAN GARDNER DEAD
Daily Argus last Friday.

Daily Argus last Friday.
just as the curtain of night was
slowly falling at the close of yess
terday, there was calmly, ebbing
away the life Of Policeman John
d. Gan dner, and just as the

ing light went out. aud the spirit
returned uuto God who gave it.
John d. Gardner was a big
brave kind hearted man. At the
meeting Of the Board Of Alder~
men last night, Mayor Hill aud a
number of the Aldermen spoke
in the highest terms of the faith~
ful policeman.
Few people realize the duties,
dangers and responsibilities Of
the policemen, and few realize
how much We owe TO the vigis
lance of the faithful officer, who,
in the lone watches Of the night,
is ever on the alert shat our sleep
may be undisturbed, aud our
lives and property kept sale
from all harm.
No man IN community is in
closer touch with ali the people
than are the policemen. Amid
summer burning heat, and win
ter's freeing cold, they are the
sentinels who stand r'ady at all
times TO answer the call, Watch
man, what Cf the night" The
death Of Policeman Gardner is
therefore a great loss to the citi-
