We understand that the following is
the trap set by the Republicans to catch
Populsts in this district. The Republi-
cans propose TO run Meekins for solici-
tor and give the Populist Leary the
nomination for judge. There il some
chance to elect the solicitor in this dis
trict. but there is no chance 10 elect
a judge in the State. Mcekins, Republi-
can, may be elected solicitor. i.earT,

William II. Bledsoe, who is with
Capt. o. f. mckinley, employed on
one of the Alaska Commercial COM
pany's boats running on the Yukon,
writes the following to The ARGUS:
St. Michaels, Aug. 2.-I will try my
hand once more to tell the people of
Rock Island a little about Alaska In
the first place there is not near the
amount of gold up here the people
think from reading some of the papers.
1t is true that some parties have
pretty good claims. while there are
hundreds who do not pay five cents
TO the pan. l am on the steamer
Susie and have made two round trips
to Dawson City. l had chance to
see great deal and get lot of infor-
nation from men who have been up
here i've years and have not struck
anything yet, and the chances are that
they never will. There is so much
royalty on what they do get that when
the officers get there share there is not
much left Tor the miner. The first
trip we made to Dawson we brought
down million and half dollars.
About half of it belonged to the mer-
chandise companies, while the other
half was divided between about fifteen
men. We had about a hundred pas
sengers and that left about eighty-five
who did not have anything to speak
of-eXcept they were complaining
about their health,
There are about 20, 900 men and wom-
en- in Dawson just now. We could have
gotten at least thousand to have
worked their way down to st. Mich
ael and then run the risk of getting
out on a ship the same way, as they
have no money. They have four
dance halls running in Dawson all
night, and there are about 20 gamb-
ling houses running wide open in full
blast all the time. There is n saloon
with every gambling house. Whisky
is 80 cents drink and beer is the
same. Meals are dollar each-that
is very reasonable-and beds are SO a
night. Town lots sell for 81 900
each while the rent for q =
room cabin is $500 month. The
cheapest lumber is $3.50 a thousand
feet. Even at that rate it takes the
saw mills day and night to supply the
demand. The British police at Daw-
son keep things very quiet and or
derby. They have at present two In
dams ut Dawson who are condemned
to be hung for killing couple of
miners.
Capt. Knaack's fleet has by this
time got to Dawson all right. Win
ter Will set in in about a month from
now. WILLIAM II. BLEDsoE

manage to conciliate them he will be
a dandy--Peoria Herald
Tanner.s Chillr ReceptIon.


The press of the state is still COM
mentinG on the cool reception Gov.
Tanner received from the wagework-
ers in the procession at Jacksonville
Labor day, as it paraded past the
reviewing stand on which the gov
ernor was a prominent figure. He
was in the company of his candidate
for state treasurer and some of the
state officials, and evidently expected
that his presence would occasion
some recognition from the passing
marchers. But the silence of the
wageworkers as they moved past the
reviewing stand was oppressive-not
a cheer was heard, and but very few
of the paraders gave any recognition
of. the governors presence. 1t is
evident from this remarkably cool re-
ception of the governor that he is not
popular with the wageworkers-tha
they do not look upon him as in genu-
inc sympathy with them and their
aspirations. This attitude of the
wagewOrkers is in conspicuous con-
trast to the ovation that Gov Altgeld
always received from workingmen at
their gatherings on similar occasions.

DURING the past week M. F
Dunlap. candidate for state treasurer,
has made tour of the counties in
northwestern Illinois. He made a
favorable impression everywhere.
When he was candidate for the nom
ination it was urged against him that
he was not politician, but the voters
do-not see why he cannot take care of
Illinois money just as well as one of
the trained cogs of Tanners machine.
They know he is an excellent business
man and thorough gentleman and
perhaps he has other qualifications
that might make up for his not being
a politician.

They Are Rock Island People and What
They Say Is of Local Interest
When an incident like the following
occurs, right here at home, it is bound
to carry weight with our readers.
When so many strange occurrences
90 the rounds of the press; are pub
lished as facts; when the Intelligent
readers knows they cannot be true,
there is no reason that people become
skeptical. On one subject skepticism
is rapidly disappearing. This is due to
the actual personal experience of our
citizens and their public utterances
regarding them. The doubter must
doubt no more in the face of such ev-
idence as this. The public statement
of reputable citizen living right
here at home, one whom you can see
every day, leaves no ground for the
skeptic to stand on.
