II would scarcely advise any young man,
having a good position in the states. to try
TO better himself by going into the Klondikc
country, and l would decidedly warn anyone
from going there without means to land him
in Dawson with $1,000 clear money" said
f. s. Carrier. an old Klondike miner, who
has been in the city the past week IF he
has that amount and knows how to take
care of himself, how to clothe himself prop
erly and look out for his health, he will not
suffer any great hardships. The Klondike
winter, while a great deal colder, is no
harder on a man than our winters here.
There is very little snow, in fact, there is
no snow at all that falls as the snow does
here. 1t comes there in the form of frost
and is light and fluffy.
Undoubtedly there has been great deal
of suffering on the Skagway trail, but it was
among the men who rushed up there with
out any money and without the proper
clothes and food. Some of them had no dogs
and tried to pack their own freight. They
overworkcd. got heated and cooled off sud
denly and took pneumonia, just as they
would have done anywhere, only 1t is worse
when you get 1t there. Some OF them too,
who did not know the way, tried to go
through without guides and got lost. When
there is snow on the trail and night comes
on there is nothing to do but make camp
right where you are. If you get off the
trail you slip right down; the snow will
not hold you. Eon can make camp in the
snow without any danger if you have the
provisions and are properly dressed-heavy
underwear, a heavy suit over that, and an
overcoat that comes below the knees and
has a hood over the head and face, leaving
only eye-holes and a place to breathe
through.

EDITOR STEAD lND0RSED.
His Peace Plans Please Many Prom
inent Americans.

LONDON, Jan. 5.-Wllliann 7. Stead,
editor of the Review of Reviews, who
recently has been agitating "A great
pilgrimage of peace through all nations,
beginning at San Francisco and ending
at ST. Petersburg" received today nu-
rnerous letters from America, all SYM
pathizing with the cause of peace. Mr..
Andrew Carnegie writes:
''I need not say that my heart is with
you and that l wish you Godspeed.
You have your field and 1 have mine.
I am absorbed in an effort to keep this
Industrial Union from falling away
from it's high plane to the level of
European powers, which are armed
camps. I cannot leave this work, even
if 1 wish. 1t is not what l can that l
am doing, but what must. Centraliza-
ton has been the motto of my life, and
I cannot scatter my shot. You must,
therefore, excuse your friend at present.
Do not make the mistake Of believing
that the American people are in favor
of departure from the policy of the
fathers. A plebiscite today would
down the imperialists. Every labor
organization meeting speaks practically
unanimously against the imperialist
policy. The farming interests are be-
coming alarmed, and even if we ratify
the treaty with Spain and hold the
Philippines, it will be only until the
day of reckoning comes. Then the
world will have another proof that the
voice of the people is the voice of God.
l have not lost my faith III the Amer
lean people, and l am still yours for
triumphant democracy
Senator Redfeld Proctor, of Vermont,
who also comedies with Mr.. Steads
views, says:
Aside from the interests of human
ity, which should appeal to all nations,
the request from Russia, such friend
in our darkest days of Civil war, should
appeal to us with special force"

waymen and Both Are Shot.
CHICAGO, jan Six highwaymen,
who were endeavoring to make their
escape after having held up the dry
goods store of H. c. T. Boorman, at
Ss2 Twenty-first place, engaged in a
shooting affray with Policemen Edward
Wallner and John McCauley, this even
ing, and both officers were wounded,
Wallner dying three hours later in the
hospital. McCauley was shot in the
arm and will recover. When Wallner
and McCauley were called to the scene
Of the robbery they started in pursuit
of the men. The officers drew their re-
volvers, but hesitated about firing be-
cause Of people on the street When
the six robbers reached an alley they
ran behind fence and opened fire on
the officers. Both policemen ran into
the street and returned the shots Wall
ner was wounded at the beginning Of
the encounter and McCauley was left
to battle with the men alone. After
firing more than dozen shots at the
officers the six men turned and ran up
the alley McCauley followed them and
received second wound. He was then
forced to give up the chase, and the
robbers escaped.
Boorman and his clerk, Charles Carl
son. were alone in the store when five
robbers entered, one remaining on
guard. They robbed Boorman of s35
and a watch, and took SIS and a watch
from Carlson. There is no clue to their
identity.

SEVEN VOTES SHORT
JOHNSON NEEDS THAT NUMBER TO
MAKE HIM NORTH DAKOTA'S
SENATOR
FIRST TEST OF STRENGTH
Caucus Called and Eight Ballots
Taken without Developing Any
Choice-Caucus Forced by the
Longer DeIay-An Adjournment
Taken Until This Evening.

BISMARCK, N. D., Jan. 5.-(Special)
The first test of strength between
the Johnson and the anti-Johnson
forces in the senatorial fight was pre-
cipitated tonight. A caucus of the
held and eight ballots were taken
without developing a choice for Unit
ed States senator.
The vote on the last ballot stood:
Johnson, 81; Little, TO- Marshall, 12;
La Moure, 6; McCumber, s; Hanna, s.;
Cooper, 4. Johnson is eight votes short
of a caucus majority. His opponents
concede him one more vote. Caucus
adjourned to tomorrow night.
The test was forced by the McKen-
zie faction. Yesterday they had no in
days unless conditions changed in
their favor. Later they learned Of
Robinson's plan to have influential
business representatives from all parts
of the state at Bismarck before the
end of the week in the hope of
Strengthening the weaker Johnson sup
porters and convincing the legislature
that the present congressman was the
choice of the states interests for the
senatorship.
The Mckenzie factions canvassed
the field thoroughly. They became
convinced that a call for an immediate
caucus before the bus ess men were
at the capitol contained a possible
chance to gain something. Their eff
forts to gain further inroads on the
johnson following for the first ballot
realized but little. The situation was
reviewed and Mckenzie advised
prompt action. Before adjourning the
Republicans Of both houses selected
Representatives to arrange a senatorial
caucus preliminaries. The house nam
ed Stevens, Wallace and Tuft, and the
senate Murphy and McGillivray. The
committee met at the Sheridan hotel.
McGillivray was elected chairman.
This is the committee which called
the caucus held tonight.

transferring him to some continental

him remain. This, therefore, put an
