Juneau's New Paper.

The Alaska Truth is the name of new papcr started at Juneau, and the first number is upon our table. It is four page, six column, home print, weekly publication, and is edited by Geo. k. Higgins, with II. H. Rice busi- ness manager, and Geo. r. Hazeltine, secretary and treasurcr. It is we'll and ably edited and about as full of read ing matter as a paper of that size can be. The local columns are exception ally good. Four papers are a good many for town the size of Juneau, but our guess is that Truth will make room for itself.
 It will be remembered that last month the employees of the Miner office walked out and quit work, owing to some differences between them and the management that it is not necessary to state. The Miner management put in a new force of employees. The old Miner force then bought a newspaper and job plant and went to work, and Truth is the result.

 Gold Galore.-W. (. Young's Loss. Alaska Truth, Friday.
 Last night the Wolcott brought to this city ten Yukoners. These people were of party of 150, who came up from the Klondike capital on the steamer Canadian, leaving Dawson Friday night, June 30.
 Among those arriving here was w. C. Houston and wife, old residents of this city. MT. H. accorded the Truth re- porter a short interview. From him the Truth gathered the following notes:
 MT. Houston reports that people are rapidly leaving Dawson for other dlS- tricts, chiefly for Cape Nome. To this new gold field the transportation com panies are carrying people for S2O per man.
 Dawson is rapidly rebuilding, though business seems to be very dull there. Wages are low, S10O per month, and many men out of work.
 On the Fourth the passengers in- dulged in grand Fourth of July cele bration.
 The party landed at Bennett the morning the gold spike was driven and participated in the celebration, which was an enthusiastic affair, there being about 4,OOO people present.
 It is estimated that the clean up ln the Klondike this season will reach Sl2,OOO,O00.
 MT. Houston reports that the Alex. Mcdonald pack train of r mules ar rived at Dawson twice before he left, laden with nothing but gold.
 The party coming out on the Cana dian brought 1000 pounds of gold, be- side large amount i'll drafts.
 The Truth is pained to have to record a severe loss to our townsman, C. W.. Young, whom Mir. Houston reports hay ing lost scow with S12,0OO or S15,OOO worth of hardware and other merchan- disc, en route to Dawson. MT. Young met the outcoming party two days out of Dawson. The scow was overturned at Big Salmon. No further particulars were secured.
 At same place, on the same day, a scow carrying Is head of cattle, was wrecked. It was not learned to whom the scow and cattle belonged.
 Accidents on the river are very ire Quent, there being more this season than usual.
 While the baggage of the passengers was piled upon the bank at Bennett a horsestopped upon a fine violin, be- longing to Mr. Houston, crushing all thcmusic out of it. The Truth is sorry Billy lost his fiddle.
 Among those stopping at Juneau wero ". C. Houston and wife, Messas. McCaulcy, Bclchor, Mcdonald, Charley Moss returning from a successful trip to Dawson with produce, and James Kite, who will be remembered as being so long connected with the jewelry house of F.. Valentine. These gentlemen have been in the Yukon from to b years.

BUILDING AND LOAN COMPANIES.

Our attention has been called to al
interesting article which appeared il
the Fincastle Herald on the 9th of the
present month, and which is upon th,
subject of building and loan compan
panies. The writer explodes the the
DRY that these companies are benefi-
cial. To the contrary it is plainly set
forth that they have brought destruc
tion to number of people who have
invested their money in them. Here
is an illustration as given in the Her
aid:
''Mr. B took ten shares of stock on
the 1st day of April, 1891, and paid
monthly dues on same for 16 months
at Sc per month. On the 1st day of
August, 1892, he borrowed $1,000 to
run for IS months, completing the I
years-the time the company required
to mature its stock The net cost of
this loan, according to the compapy's
terms would be $1SS something less
than 4 per cent per annum.
I'm the latter part iof 1886, after 63
monthly payments had been made. ap-
gregating 1858, Mr.. B. with the view
of paying off his loan, called on the
company for statement of balance.
AS there only remained 20 months 70
complete the 50, Mr. B had right to
expect that under no circumstances
could the company exact more than
$3.50, less reasonable discount for
cash. But instead of this, they sent
a statement showing balance due
them December Z, 1896, of 1851 80.
All of which goes to show that manv
things look pretty on paper, but never
turn out to be reality.

AS TRUE AS THE GOSPEL.

to deal fairly with men and measures
and in it's endeavor to do this it il

the treacheries wrought by vanity and
avarice in 1896, he developed some
100000 more votes than had ever been
cast for any Democratic candidate be-

A gentleman in this city who is well
versed in military affairs, was discuss.
ing the late war with Spain the other
day and said that Mckinley and Han.
ma had managed the war from a selfish
standpoint in an admirable manner.
He called attention to the fact that
nearly every war in the history of tie
country had produced a presidential
candidate, except this one, and that
had it not been for Mckinley ard
Hanna there would be hero of it to
aspire to the presidency next year.
The gentleman referred to further
said that General Shafter was placed
in charge of the only important fight
owing to his immense weight SO as to
prevent his accomplishing any great
thing and that all others, who could
have risen to the occasion, were kept
in the back ground. This was done.
our friend thinks, to prevent any one
from opposing Mckinley next year for
a second term nomination. There ap
pears to US to be some common sense
in this, and study of the situa ton is
apt to convince any one that what the
gentleman in question has said, con-
tains more truth that poetry.

There is another view to be taken of
that wonderful 1896 campaign, and
that is if the negro vote had been elm
mated, Bryan would have been the
victor. We all remember that it was
said in those days that the better ele-
ment of the people were supporting
Mckinley, and that the followers of
Bryan were regulators, anarchists
and the Lord only knows what else.
But the figures do not bear out that
statement. In that election nearly
100000 negroes voted for Mckinley,
Therefore if we take away the negro
votes, land there are not many who
claim the negro as the better element)
Bryan's majority would have been
nearly 100000. Aside from this Nc
Kinley won out in New York, Illinois,
Pennsylvania and a number of other
States, whose population is made up of
large per cent of foreigners, and who
voted for the Republican nominee for
revenue only and not principle. We
use the word foreigner in no disrespect-
full term, because some of Americas
best citizens are of foreign birth.
Very true Mckinley is president and
has been for nearly two years, but the
Democrats have the consolation of
knowing that defeat is sometimes more
precious than victory, especially if vic
tory is obtained as it was by the ele-
ment that placed Mr.. Mckinley in the
highest office in the gift of the Ameri-
can people.
