EDITOR PAYS A FINE
Dawson Cleaner Man Found
 Guilty or Contempt Of Court.

D. w. Semple, editor of the Dawson City Sunday Cleaner, was recently fined ST 900 and costs amounting to s6o for abusing the Dawson courts and officers of the liw. The story as told by the operator of the Dominion telegraph line to operator Cunningham of Bennett Is:
 "lt appears that two weeks ago a con stable of the mounted police. in citizens clothes, went into a gambling house and sat beside the dealer In a game of black jack.' When he noticed the dealer was using marked cards, he seized the deck and arrested the dealer.
 'Semple in his paper denounced the au- thoritIeS and said this was piece of pure blackmail. and poured torrent )f abuse on police and courts. When he appeared in court yesterday he said all of 1t was hearsay, and told him by another.
 Judge Dugas said In view of the fact that Semple was an alien and not familiar with Canadian law, he would let him off easy. His honor fined him sr,ooo and costs, or three months on the wood pile. Mr. Semple asked for one day to collect the money, which was tefused, and he was ordered to jail. Inside of an hour Semple was released by the payment in full of the fine. He Is now 2 martyr-herJ with the gamblers"

FARALLON DAMAGED
Accident In Making n Landing at
 Seward CItV.

While attempting to make landing at Seward City on her last downward trip, says the Juneau Miner. the steamship Far allon was considerably damaged. A heavy wind was blowing and high sea running at the time. Persons acquainted with the situation at Seward say that under such conditions the mooring of a ship is very difficult and dangerous matter The Faralon, however, was, after hard Strug- gle by her officers and crew, moored to the pier in way which ought, under ordinary circumstances. 10 insure perfect safety. such was the force Of the wind and waves however. that three lines were parted and the ship driven with such force against the pier that her bulworkS and topSides were stove in and othr damage sustained. It Is also reported that she was In lmmin- ent danger or being driven ashore, and for a time her officers feared the worst, but by skilllul management she cleared with no further lljurv.

OLD BEACH EXHAUSTED
Nomtte says First Seaside DIEEIngs
 win No Longer Pay Co Rock.

George Town, foreman of the ALASKAN, has receive a letter from Portland from C. n. Warner, who went to Nome last sum mer. Regarding Nome he says;
 "Mv trip from Atlln to Nome was un- eventful, except a close shave at Five Fingers and a wreck at St Michael, where a storm blew the small schooner was on onto the beach, where she pounded hole in her bottom. causing loss of uearly all of my outfit or what there was left ! managed to gel something out Of the beach put ln four days back ln The n,ns-four days of tne mcst d'mnaole travelling euer had, gr' >h TOT iuel' and it Is needless to say l." ate our grub raw. It is hard country to gel over in the summer, from the fact of there being practically no fuel and plenty of water, both overhead and under foot. We man aged to stake a couple of claims at the head of a creek i've were put on to- What good thev are no one can tell We had no time to prospect.
 "The B miles of the beach am ae' oualnted with that was worded has pTae- tieallv been exhausted for rockers. Ma chlnery of the proper kind no doubt would pay, but that takes money. What the beach will pay further north is practically unknown. So far as 1 know, It has not been demonstrated beyond a doubt to be anywhere near as rich as what has already been worked. Where 1t has been pros peeted many have said 1t was no good, while others think the contrary.
 "lt is a gamble in any case, and next spring there will be tremendous rush up there, everyone expecting to make for tune. If the beach further north does pan out rich and the creeks undeveloped this plst summer prove like the few all ready worked, 1t will be the greatest gold producing country on earth. This, how ever. has yet to be proven. Anyone ex- peeting to locate claims next year VIII have wasted their time, unlsss powers of attorney can be knocked out. They are the curse of the country but legal, and guess will stick as they have so far, all talk to the contrary notwithstanding.

LAW COMPILED WITH
AtIIn Gold CommIssIoneT Explains
 Allen mIners, Trouble.

Capt. J. D. Graham, of Atlin, B. C., provincial gold commissioner, is in Seattle and to the Pcst-lntelllgencer said;
 "All persons, whether alien or British subjects, who had staked their claims prior to January IS. 1899, the date of the passage of the alien law, were and have since been permitted to hold and work them. There were probably two hundred American miners to whom miners license had b.en issued who located between Jan- uary IS and February }, 1899. the date on which we received a copy of the new law and these only were forced to give up their claims.
 "The alien law does not affect quartz properties, but refers only to placer dig g,ngs. am not informed what action the Canadian government intends to take in the matter of miners claims. hardly think lt probable that it has reached head quarters vet, as it has many departments to travel through before it does"
 Capt. Graham declared he knew nothing in regard to the contemplated action of the next legislature with reference to the alien laR. From a gentleman who has been In the district for the past two years and who came down on the same boat with Capt. Graham, 1t Is learned that there is every prospect of It's being repealed In speak ing of 1t he said;
 "The next provincial legislature opens on January 4, 1900, and 1t is generally be- lieved that one of its first acts will be to repeal the alien law regarding placer dig glngs. The people living in the district are not in favor of 1t, and believe if the country Is thrown open to Americans It will be more rapidly developed. As 1t Is now It is progressing very slowly. It is my opinion that by March [, next. Amerl' can miners can take hold of placer dig glngs on the same footing they can quatz at the present time.
 "Whlle there are a lot of rich placer claims about Atlin think many thou sands of dollars were saved by the alien law. as ground of no value was staked all over. On this much money would have been uselesSly expended, so that the much aggrleved law was a blessing in disguise. "

 The names of the parties owning this peopertv and lts exact lo-ation are with helj at the request of the parties them selves, for the reason that they fear avar- ieious Canadians would make trouble for them by jumping their property if they realized itS value.
