After the Dollar.

Grover Hedrick writes TO Corvallis
from Skagway:
Every one here is for the almighty
dollar. You have &c pay for everything
you get. On the l7th of this month we
expect to move into Schmidt's property,
where We shall have no rent 10 pay
Schmidt bought out the party who had
his place rented and took possession to-
day. He had to pay $3.50 TO get them
ont. He claims 10 have been offered So.
500 for his property, but refused, asking
s.. 500. All property is very high here,
and rents in the business portion of town
range from $50 to $500 per month and
the buildings are all occnpied.
IT takes fortune TO get foothold
here. Every man, however, SCENE to
be doing some business. There is no
reason why they should not maks money
for they give nothing away. Cigars are
% cents apiece and q very poor article at
that. Whisky is 25 cents per glass, and
think it is made here i haveH't been
in saloon, but you can see inside OF
them from the street. They are always
full. More than half the people here are
gam olers, and most of the games are
games. Yesterday three men
were brought in from the pass dead.
They had been frozen to death. Ny ad-
vice to everyone who intends to come to
Alaska is to stay ut heme till the wealth
er gets better.
