Klondike Justice

From the Chicago News.
Sheep Camp is said to be the liveliest
place in Alaska today. In a letter just re-
ceived by the Daily News is kodak of an
interesting occurrence which happened
there about a month ago. Two men were
discovered stealing-one shot himself to es-
cape punishment, the other was caught.
After a hasty meeting to discuss the case
the verdict was that the latter should re-
ceive a good horsewhipping. Accordingly
he was tied to large post put up by the
tramway company for different purposes
and the beating administered, witnessed by
an interested crowd.
Any fine day from 1,500 to 1880 men black
en- the trail from Sheep Camp to the sum-
init of the mountain, carrying goods over.
For 1,4OO feet they struggle, and to carry
100 pounds to the summit takes an hour,
but coming down requires but about two
minutes. Shooting the chutes is not to be
compared with the method Xlondike miners
take to come down from the summit of the
mountain. In the deep snow is a groove
from eight to fourteen feet deep in which
a man stands upright, using his elbows
and knees as brakes and then slides. He
lands in a feathery snowbank at the bottom
none the worse for his remarkable trip.

Mr. Fleming (dem.) of Georgia then, as a
matter of privilege, called up resolution
which had been referred to the naval COM

navy to transmit to the house any por-

MUST CROSS TIE OCEAN.


The way to save life, in this conflict
is to terminate it quickly. The hrs!
thing to have done was to have har-
rowed Havana from the face Of the
earth. If that was deemed to be an I'M
necessary destruction Of life and prop
erty, the next thing is the destruction
Of the fleets of the Spanish navy, the
only fundamentally by which Spain
can continue a war against this coun-
try. President Mckinley having ex-
perienced all the horrors Of war and
approaching its destructive forces, pro-
poses, no doubt, a policy which shall
confne the fighting 10 the sea. He has
issued another call, but shat does not
mean that he is going to throw these
raw recruits into land battles, but
rather to be prepared TO hold what we
get. and to stand off those foreign rob-
bers who show such q disposition to
grab for a division of spoils. When
Spains fleets are found and sunk Spain
is done. She will be "hors de combat"

which are useless away from harbCrs.
Dewey has sunk one of these squadrons
and Sampson and Schley are after an
other whose doom is inevitable. The
strongest of these Spanish fleets is still
at Cadiz, viz: the Pelayo, the Carlos
V, the Cardinal Cisneros, the Vittoria,
the Lepanto, the Numancia, the AL
fonso xiii, and three minor cruisers
Two Of these vessels are obsolete. Two
others are to be added. but they are

Cadiz fleet to accept a challenge to /
fight. With the other two squadrons /
at the bottom of the sea the chances |
are that our combined feet will be |
compelled to cross the Atlantic for the
only opportunity Of finishing up the
job. Having disposed of two of the
fleets, we cannot afford to wait forever
for something that will never happen.
With two fleets destroyed Spain will
not risk the third and last one in hos
tile waters. In the end. therefore, 1t
seems to us that trip across the At
lantic with mighty squadron is inev-
liable, and when that time comes.
which may be very soon, Dewey ought
TO be here to command it. The soldiers
we shall have dispatched to Manila
together with the fleet already there
can hold Luzon and the Philippines;
with Havana dismantled and Cervera's
feet sunk, a few thousand soldiers
backed by torpedo boats in its bays,
can hold Cuba, and the only way to end
the war will be to cross the Atlantic
and at the mouth Of the Mediterranean
