the volume is closed. The light of Il
new years dawn floods the sky; an
other ledger Is begun; and a volume
with clean, unwritten leaves lies open
before US. 1t is always well and profit
able at such time to pause moment
for review Of the past and a look into
the future. The division Of the years
Is an arbitrary matter, to a great ex-
tent. yet when we reach the end Of one
and the beginning Of another there is
feeling of solemnity comes over the
lightest mind and realization that a
milestone has been passed.
The year that has passed has been a
most notable one in the history of oul.
country. 1t has been year of years
Tor America. and prodigious amount
OF history has been compassed into its
brief months. 1t has brought us war
ana wealth.-wealth in spite of war
ana as result of the war. Events en-
tirely unexpected have occurred, events
OF world wide Importance, changing
radically our national policy and the
attitude of the rest of the world to-
ward us. 1t has been most con-
spicuous year in the history of America
in many ways. In addition to waging
most successful foreign war, our
country has enjoyed wonderful pros
perity at home and has surged ahead
along the paths of progress at an un-
precedented rate. Our financial condi-
ton was never so good: in trade we
lead the world: every industry is ac-
tive: the land is contented and happy:
and, best of all, the Union Of the states
has been cemented into a union of
hearts and interests. As the result of
the past years work the American flag
means much more. today. than ever
before; it is more honored abroad; it
is more loved at home.
1t has been a year of great events
throughout the whole world, as well rs
IN our own land. An especially large
number of notable men have died, dur
ing the year. Here in Maine we have
enjoyed our share OF the general pros
perity. yet the year will be remem-
bered for it's large number Of fires and
murders and for its appalling marine
disasters
So much for the old year. It is dead
and buried in the vault of the past.
The lessons taught by it's experiences.
however, live on for our country and
for us as individuals. AS we stand on
the threshold of the new year. let us
believe that the present is better than
the past and that the future will be
still better. The new year brings our
country, greater responsibilities than it
has ever had, and opens before it the
grandest opportunities that ever God
placed before a people. Let US add
faith TO our hope that America will be
fully equal to it's new responsibilities
~ -
new opportunities. 1t is not improb-
able that 1899 may be greater year in
American history than 1898 has been.
1t is certain that unparalleled pros
perity lies before us; and, while it Is
not likely that great victories will be
won by capturing cities and sinkingl
kr~, tn
tories will be won in th1 pursuits of
peace.
So farewell to the old year and well,
come to the new. Let us do our part
day by day. to build up the grand.
structure of the whole. The page, -
white and clean before us. Beware of
blots, and of writing what We're better
unwritten.

IN THE COURTS.

Miscarriage of Justice.-Who is Responsible
 Last Sunday night there was a drum ken row in this city, in which six per sons were engaged, if we are correctly informed. Knives or raZors were freely used and one or two parties emerged from the conflict in condition not easily described with a pen. The par ties were brought before Justice Howell, who, after a trial, discharged them owing to a lack of evidence to convict, an act which is commendable, because no man should be punished except on legal and competent evi- dence
 The fact that there has been a gross miscarriage of justice proves to us that there has been some gross dereliC- tion of duty. 1t is not for the court to prosecute or look up evidence. and in Alaska the testimony has always been secured by the marshal and prose cutting attorney, and in the absence of the latter the duty is performed by the former. Why the evidence was not forthcoming we would like for some person to explain. Why the marshal has failed to bring witnesses to the trial is a matter that needs an eXplana- tiOn.
 Prom past experience and public rumors in Douglas City, criminal cases from Douglas Island have not been a "hOwling success" and we think the time has come when the attention of the people should be called to the matter.

The City of Topeka.

The Topeka steamed into the chan mel last Sunday night. Capt. Olsen is in command of this vessel. He was formerly with the OriZaba and is most pleasant, genial gentleman. The Topeka is a great favorite in Alaska and for this trade is the best boat in Alas kan waters. Purser Jones is holding his job down against all corners and he is certainly one of the finest fellows that ever straddled gang plank or rounded up a lot of passengers for their fare. The crew of the Topeka from top to bottom is all right.

quartz mining districts in Alaska. The
 discovery of rich quartz is reported in every direction. The News man met
 Mr. F. B. Clark. who lives up the Chil- kat, two and a quarter miles from that city. He is doing some work on a quartz proposition a few hundred yards from his residence. The ore looks we'll and he showed the writer an assay made by E. T. Everett, of the Washington Cooperative Mining Syn dicate of Tacoma, Wash. which placed a value of SILICA per ton on the crop ping in gold and silver The vein is over five feet thick aud Mr. Clark has at least lO0 tons of that quality of ore ii sight. Mr. Clark is but one of the many who are opening up quartz lodges near the town of Haines. In gong up the river, on either side the quartz veins are visible to the naked eye. some of which are, however. at th,s time apparently inaccessible, but which will no doubt be located and developed in the ne.r futU e. Black mica, lime stone, granite and marble are also tounu In abundance near that city.

A FEW DAYS IN HAYNES.
A Thriving Town That Will Become Good
 City.


 Mission. The FlOSie k a fine little boat and skipS along at a good lively gait Her captain Is Mir. James Healey, most pleasant gentleman, who has been in Alaska since 1880, and knows the Alaska waters as well as any man in the district Capt. Healey brought the first sawed lumber to HaineS which was used in the construction of the building now occupied by Judge Ri- pink>y. which was in thn year 1880. l.. Nvlund is the second officer. a cOmpe- tent sailor and who k always doing something to add to the comfort of tl" passengers. Peter Miller is the steward and he sets fine table. Mr. yOhn ScUlly is the e.giueer and he keeps the engines jumping SculIy was on the Olympia when she made her trial trip at San Francisco. Bert Steb5iuS and Louis Stein look after the boiler The former was in the boiler room of the Oregon when she made her trial trip. The crew on the FlOsie is all right. Supt. COrbus will only have the best men.
 We stopped for short time at Sc ward City, where supplies for the mines were uulOaded. At this place we were pleased to meet our old friend A. J. Bays, who is with the Mellen Mining Co.
 Arriving at HaiueS. we found our friend ?. R. McGuire who extended to Us the glad hand of fellowship as we'll as the freedom of the city. It was not long until we located Mr. Warner, who runs the principle hotel of the town. He was formerly foreman of the stamp mill at Sheep Creek. He Is doing well, and being a constant reader of the great religious weekly, has got to be very fine fellow.
 A LOOK AT THE TOWN.
 Our last visit to Haines was last winter. when large portion of the people were living in tents, but such is not the condition of HaineS now, for it has built up with good, substantial frame buildings and the population has probably doubled within the past six months. Col. RipinSky. one of the has a good general store He was ap- pointed justice of the peace for that place and everybody calls him judge now. He rounds up the criminals in a becoming manner l.. l.. Bales, for merly from Whatcom County, Wash ington. is located at Haines and is handling mining properties. He has fine collection of ores from the differ eut locations surrounding that city.
 MINING INTERESTS.
 From conversations had with pros pectors, a personal inspection of ore from various properties located and also a personal view of a part of the country surrounding Haines, we are firmly convinced that Haines will in the future become one of the greatest

THE PORCUPNE DISTRICT.

When we speak of the Porcupine dis trict, reference is made to large scope of cOultry a. the head of the streams that run into the Chilkat river. It iS apparently named after the Porcu- pine river. on which placer gold was first discovered. The writer went to Haiues for the purpose of going over this district and personally inspecting the various mines. but weeks tramp Was sufficient for the time being. but later on we hope to accomplish our purpose. This POrcupine district has been defamed for year past as all other districts have been. but the time has come when it is universally ad- mitted that placer claims that have been properly developed are yielding gold iu abundance and we have proof, which to Us is conclusive. that there is one claim on the POrcupine that is yielding from one to twelve hundred dollars every day. The fact is, there are few claims that are being worked This Is practically the first season, but just so sure as the placer mines in that district will be developed. so sure will it be that the POrcupjne district will be one of the great placer mining dis trictS of the world.
 In conclusion we will say that the POrcupine country will also show up fine gold quartz and copper proposi- tions, and in all, that district is des- tined to become one of the greatest all around mining countries in not only Alaska, but on the North American continent.
