TRADING FOR TAGGART.
His Friends Offering to Knife Both
Cox and Stuclxmeyer.

His Friends Offering to Knife Both
Cox and Stuckmeyer.
Friends Of Police Judge Cox and City
Clerk Stuckmeyer are in arms against a
movement that has beer exposed the last
day or two as a result of combines" and
trades that the syndicate ring Is trying
to manipulate in Taggart's behalf. The ring
has become alarmed in the last few days
at the sentiment that is developing against
its candidate in the southern wards, and
Taggart Democrats have approached Re-
publicans with a proposition that is said
to have deceived good many. The Demo-
Gratis propose to vote for Stubs and Hays
Republican candidates for police judge and
city clerk, providing that the Republicans
will agree to vote for Taggart Such propo-
sitions are regarded with suspicion by Re-
publicans who have heard of such Demo-
cratic trickery in the past, and who know
that no faith can be put in such promises,
but it is said that some of the friends of
the two Republican candidates mentioned
have expressed Willingness TO agree TO
trade" votes 1t goes without saying, of
course, that neither Mr.. Stubs nor Mr..
Hays countenance such movement. They
stand for the entire ticket and are ready to
share its fate. Friends of Cox and Stuck
meyer are both indignant at the efforts that
are being made to elect Taggart at no mat
ter what cost to other candidates on the
ticket, and there are many who say that
they believe Judge Cox would be perfectly
justified in stunning the southern wards
in favor of the Citizens ticket. There is
much doubt of Taggarts sincerity on the
financial question in the minds of South
Side Democrats. and this has been further
heightened by the proposition to sacrifice
Cox and Stuckmeyer. both recognized as
stanch silver Democrats.
Just what the outcome of this discovery
will be is not known: 1t is fact how
ever, that Judge Cox's admirers and sup
porters of the South Side. particularly the
Thirteenth and Fourteenth wards. have
taken precautions to get proof of the re-
ported propositions to trade" him off for
Taggart. Indisputable evidence. they claim,
such PROPOSITIONS have been made and it
is the intention to trace the source and au-
thority for such a scheme. When ii is
brought home to the door OF the mayor and
the syndicate ring there Will be an eXplo-

Merchants and buyers from the territory COW

yesterday, having taken advantage of the ex-

yesterday that they began to call at the rooms
Of the association to register. When the
strangers did begin to walk into the Office they
came in a stream, and all day long the rooms
were crowded with Westerners. The crowd was
DO great that it was necessary to keep two regis
ters on the desk. and to double the force Of men
provided to care for the visitors. Nearly twice
as many merchants registered yesterday as did
SO on the first day OF the first excursion. The
officials of the association judged from this that

We invite your attention to the prospectus of
the YUKON TRADING. MINING n EX-
PLoRATION COMPANY. Limited. and, as
purely a business proposition, would ask for
same your careful consideration.
1t is proposed by this company to send out the
most thoroughly equipped expedition which has
yet left for the Klondike, composed of none hut
experienced miners accustomed to the hardships
Of rough mining camps. These men will be un-
der the direct control of F. Eugene Gladwin,
who has had a large and varied experience in
the working OF mines and developing mining
properties. and who for the last two years has
had entire charge of a group OF mines in Kern
County, California, in which tho officers Of this
corporation are largely interested.
These miners go under a contract which pro-
vides that the company shall own Gfty-one per
cent. of all the claims located by them in con-
sideration for their free transportation and the
necessary supplies furnished for their existence.
The company will acquire further properties by
purchase, option. location or otherwise, and
with that end In view George NJ. Belden sailed
on the steamer Cleveland on Aug. G.. for st.
Michaels. en- route for Dawson City. where he
will bond q large number Of claims to be taken
over by US as approved by our board OF en-
gineers.
We have secured a large steamer capable of
carrying $500 tons. dead weight, and it is pro-
posed to take a full cargo OF provisions and
miners supplies. over and above the actual
amount required for our own expedition. With
these trading posts will be established under the
personal supervision OF w. 7. Criswell, who has
long been connected with commercial interests
In Alaska and ON the Pacific Coast.
1t is expected that this commercial feature Of
our business alone will yield a profit many times
over the cost of our investment, leaving the
profits from our mining ventures as all clear
gain, and we believe for every thousand dollars
invested many thousands will be returned.
The promoters of this company having faith
in their enterprise do not ask you to pay 81. 90
per share for your stock in order to provide them
! with n large amount at no cost to themselves;
| neither do the directors absorb q large proper
ton OF the receipts OF the company in salaries.
