From the Spokane SpokeSman-Review.
Tears and grieving are not all of the
pathetic. What, for example, could be
more pathetic than the spectacle daily
trains move through with their burden of
eager, joyous and deluded humanity MAX
ing for the hardships and perils of the
Klondike?
These happy gold-seekers are passing
through Spokane at the rate of from 800
to 500 daily. For the most part they are
young men. often mere boys, from the
farm, the counter and the factory. Many
of them never beheld mountain until
they entered, upon the present journey.
Few of them have born burdens upon
their backs, or waded icy streams, or nav
igated tempestuous lakes. At the under
taking they are facing they are worse
than tyros. They are mere children.
Not one in a hundred knows what he is
going against. The pathos will come in
the undeceiving-when hope has burned
low, and the ugly truth is before them;
when many of them shall break down on
the terrible trails and some of them shall
die FAR from their home and kindred
Inc California of the early sos was bad
enough but 1t was a summer outing com
pared with this Klondike journey. Even
California, with its charming climate and
golden streams flowing through a pleas
"ne ldhu, was prolMc IN disappointment
ana disaster But California was a pleas
ant game compared with Alaska. 1t was
easy there TO prospect the many streams
and gulches The ground was unfrozen,
the winter short, the climate pleasant
Alaska lies under the Arctic circle The
e3rth is everlastingly frozen. The win
ters are long and frlghtfully dreary. The
country for nine months in each year
is the apotheosis of desolation. When the
eager army of gold-seekers are landed
on the bleak Alaskan coast, and the for
plddlng passes expose their terrors, hope
ana courage will begin 20 ooze out of the
goid-seeker's finger-tips. Later in the
season We shall see the reaction. The
eastoound trains will be loaded with dis
appointed and discouraged humanity, and
the only thought that will cheer the re-
turn Journey viii be the consoling refiec-
ton that they are going home Fortu-
nate will be those who save enough out of
the wreck to buy the return tickets.

Lexington, KY. Sept. 21.-Secretary
Alger visited the military camp here
yesterday and reviewed the troops. I'm
diately after the review Secretary AL
ger made short address to the SOL
diers, admonishing them to be strong in
their duty to their country He said
the government had always done and
would continue to do all in its power for
the enlisted men, He declared that
citizens. instead of finding fault with
the government. should lend their coun-
try their assistance by helping the SOL
diers all they could.
This sentiment was warmly cheered.
and the secretary added that he was
glad to say that he had heard eX-
ceIlent reports from the citizens of
Lexington, and he wanted to thank
them for the great good they had done
in furnishing so many delicacies free of
charge to the sick and FOR refusing to
practice eXtortion on the well.

There Is Too Much to Talk About for Him
to Keep Still.
Kansas City, Mo-, Sept. 21.-A special
to The Star from Jacksonville, Fla,
says: Colonel William Jennings Bry-
an of the Third Nebraska volunteers,
will shortly resign his commission in
the United States army and resume the
discussion of public questions. This
statement is not made upon the au-
thority of Colonel Bryan, however.
When asked to express himself on
questions of public interest he said:
You can say that 1 refuse to discuss
any matters connected with politics. the
army, or myself, except that 1 see no
reason to change the views in regard
to expanding the territory of the Unit
ed States 1 expressed in my Omaha
speech, made before entering upon this
army life
That he has determined upon
course which will require some action
in the near future means that he is
going to resign his commission, issue n
statement as to why he does this and
then enter fully into the discussion of
public questions on lines somewhat more
extended than in the past Colonel
Bryan is looking and feeling well, but
is undoubtedly suffering from the re-
straint he has placed over himself
If you knew he said, what it cost
me to keep still when there is so much
to say about things of Importance to
the people, and of lifelong interest and
mon ent to me, you would appreciate
the strength of my will When
asked if he would talk freely on
the subject when he has once broken
loose, he said: You know how IL is
when a dam breaks. There is no telling
when the flood stops
When his candidacy for the presi-
Dental nomination was suggested he
said: a man may say things and ex-
press opinions upon public affairs which
will not meet public approval. These
results are not always favorable to
himself An idea is everything to me
far more than any office. I can go
down to defeat with an idea as grace
fully as any one you ever saw Colonel
Bryan would not talk of the condition
OF his regiment or the desirabiiity of
it's being mustered out. as it has
direct bearing on his political and per-
sonal affairs He refused to name the
date when he will finally announce his
decision to resign his commission. He
seems to have fully made up his mind.

The names are not, however. widely
known outside of Spain, the apparent
purpose being to secure commission
strong among all elements at home, and
thus able to carry public approval of
its action, rather than one made up of
conspicuous public men. The Spanish
commission has two senators. whereas
the American has three. and it differs
