No Starvation in Alaska.

Captain Ray, the officer who was sent
to Alaska by the Government last fall
to ascertain conditions there has just
returned. He states that there is no
longer any danger of starvation in the
Kondike and that food is more abund
ant that il has ever been before. He
reports many rich finds GA the Amoli-
can side Of the border, Minook Creek,
Mission, Charley. Seventy Mile and
Koyukuk rivers all being the scenes of
active operations and good finds, be-
sides many Others. Those who have
caught the Alaska fever, however. will
do well to carefully read the following
statement which may act as an anti
dote:
"Before speaking of what | saw in
the interior, said Mr.. Ray, II desire
to say something about the tremendous
rush now being made to the gold fields.
The influx can only result in much hard
ship. distress, suffering and disappOint-
ment. The character of the men | met
on the trails, unaocustomed as they are
to the rigors of an Arctic climate is
such that their chances OF discovering
mines are not one In 10, 200. Further
more, very few OF them will find means
of earning living. There is not now
enough employment in the paying mines
for one-fourth of those now going into
the interior. In fact, when left Daw-
son hundreds OF men were idle,
Zone of the most pltiful spectacles |
ever witnessed was the hordes of pros
pectors | passed between Dawson and
the summit. Knowing the conditions
they will have to cope with, | cannot
but pity their helplessness and ignor-
ance. "
1t is Captain Rays opinion that the
yield of the Yukon placers this season
will not run over 1000, 900. He reach
ed thisconolusion after careful person
al investigation and consultations with
over twenty of the richest mine-owners.
There is now no danger of a food short

ORGANIZE cBTTLE
ASSOCIATIONS.
A Good Suggestion from the EIko
"Independent."

1.-THE fight made by the cattlemen
against the shipment of cattle from the
auarantined districts of California into
this State shows the value Of organiza-
ton. AS soon as the first dispatches
which passed between the Secretary OF
Agriculture and Governor Sadler were
published, the Elko County Cattle AS
ISOLATION took up the fight for the State
and never faltered until 1t was carried
to a successful issue. kilograms and
letters by the score were sent to the
Secretary Of Agriculture and to our
Senators and Representative at Wash
ington, acquainting them fully with
the true condition of affairs in Nevada.
The Governor was kept posted on every
move made in the fight by those who
wanted to ship their diseased cattle
into the State. He was made to feel
that the cattle interests of Nevada we're
unit on this question.
"The cattlemen OF other sections OF
the State fell into line and the battle
was fought and won. The result is in
a.great measure due to the Elko County
Cattle Association and to its members
In large measure belongs the credit of
the victory. This should stimulate the
cattlemen in other counties to form
county organizations and be prepared
at all times to battle for their rights.
"a united force under a well directed
leadership will always accomplish more
in any struggle than twice their number
whore there is no concert of action.
This truth should go home to cattle
men in other counties and they should
follow the lead Of Elko county and or
ganize at once. ~

War is upon us. Diplomatic relations
between Spain and the United States
have ceased. Hostile acts have been
committed and 1t is now to late to draw
back.
Whatever may have been the opin-
ions OF men in this country with regard
TO the ACCESSIBILITY of war, all true
Americans now stand ready to back up
the policy of the Government with
their lives and means. For 1t is war
in the vindication of right, the suppress
sion of barbarous tyranny and the
ayenging of the Maine disaster. The
diving cry Of those 200 American sea-
men pierced TO the core the hearts OF
their countrymen and the smouldering
fires of resentment we're kindled as by
an electric spark, when the news came
that at last Congress had decided &c
drive out the Spaniards from the pest
house which they have made. May
the conflict be short and peace come
quickly again to this fair land of ours
