Johh LaRock received a letter this
week from his brother. Alexander,
dated Dawson City, Jan. 18th. Alex.
will be remembered by many, as hav-
ing gone to Alaska about FIVE years
ago, and after the usual struggles has
managed to do we'll, having interests
in two good claims. He speaks of hav-
ing written a long letter, giving full
information, some time before, which
would not go out until mail carrier
arrived; and sent the later letter by a
friend in order to ''hold up" John, if
he was thinking of going to Alaska.
He says: Don't pay any attention to
the reports you hear from this country
till you get my last letter. There are
hundreds of people coming in here,
who might better stay away, as there
are great many idle people right
here, and food selling at enormous
prices. Flour ST per pound; beans
SIS and everything in proportion. A
living may be hard to get on the out
side, but nothing to compare with
here; in fact, it is almost impossible
to get food at any price. The mining
property is all in the hands of the few
that were on the ground at the time of
| discovery, and any sales made are way
up in the thousands. have two in
terests here and will dispose of them
in the spring it can. The letter /
wrote last month explains all.'
