YUKON ELECTION.

Yukon Territory is Just now In the
throes of political contest, There are two
ticket In the field for members of the Yu-
kon council. and the support of Dawson
at this early date seems to be about evenly
divided. Political meetings are being held
all over the territory and a systematic
canvas being made. The Yukon party
ticket Is composed of Arthur Wilson and
Alexander J. Prudhomme. Thomas W..
O'Brlen, proprietor of the Yukon Sun, and
Mr.. Noel carry the banner OF the independ-
snt party. The latter ticket represents the
present council, while the former has the
support of the Dawson board of trade,
The voting will take place on october II,
and the result will be watched with great
interest by all In the north.

ROAD HOUSE SUPPLIES
Steamer Clossett Engaged in Car
rying Supplies TO the Twenty
b, Roadhouses Between White
!. Horse and Dawson--MaiI Car
riers VIII Travel Night and
Day All Winter.

There has been much talk of cut off on
the winter Trail that would save MANY
miles, but superintendent Richie of the T..
u. Co. saws:
1.-The Canadian Development COMPANY
is not likely to undertake the work Of
building CUTOFF from Selkirk to the head
of Bonanza, as has been reported. 1t would
be quite expensive and believe such work
should be done by the government. The
company, however, will be willing to do
what is right to further such an improve
ment. The company has shown good faith
In the service of the trail by its last win
ters work, and feel there should be some
encouragement as to the service we still
hope to give, and would give with a still
shorter route. The mail teams will travel
day and night in winter"
The company is making very extensive
preparations for its operations during the
coming winter. II now has the steamer
Clossett busy distributing supplies to the
roadhouses between White Horse and
Dawson, the supplies being taken from
White Horse. There will be twenty of
these roadhouses and they are being stock
ed to give good board and comfortable lod-
gings to the winter travellers, as we'll as to
the companv's mail carriers and teamsters.
For the mail service horse teams will be
used as much as possible, but dogs will
have to be used at the beginning of the
season.

TT Is TIME TO ACT.

The support given Skagwav in its eff
forts to secure the right to carry Canadian
goods in bond for sale in the interior BY
the White Horse Star is appreciated and
rhe invitation of that paper to our chamber
of commerce to circulate petitions for an
endorsement of our position in Dawson.
White Horse, Atlin and Bennett should be
accepted. P. Seharschmidt, editor OF the
White Horse Star, is one of the best In
formed men in the north on all matters in
connection with Canadian customs affairs
and his suggestions NAV be followed with
profit.
The information that the Canadian
statutes already make provision for cases
Of this kind is gratifying, and holds out
the hope that with proper action there
should be no great deav in securing the
right sought.
The contention made by the Star that in
this instance at least, Skagwav's cause is
that also of the interior points, whose mer-
chants desire an accessible supply depot
from which to secure goods at reasonable
price and quickly, is self evident. The
Dominion government is now interesting
itself in encouraging the development of
the Yukon. and if it be made aware that
the business men of that territory desire
that SkagWav merchants be extended the
privilege of CARRYING Canadian goods in
stock without being required to pay Cana
dian duty when they are shipped across
the line there seems no reason to doubt
that the commissioner of Canada customs
will grant the request, This view is
supported BY the fact that must be appar-
emit to the commissioner that Canadian
trade would be expanded bv his giving his
seal of approval to the plan. If the Skag-
wav stores were added to the list of dis
tributers of Canadian goods, their sales
would certainly be largely increased,
Now is the time for the Skagwav eham>
Der of commerce to act. The Yukon steam
ers will soon tie up for the winter. Then
the means of communication will be more
difficult and more time will be consumed
If the correspondence be put off until that
time. If the purpose be to have all these
things regulated by the opening of naviga-
ton next year, and 1t certainly should be
the aim, there is not one dav to lose.
P. Scharsehmidt is good man to handle
the matter inside. He has already offered
TO undertake the task. The chamber of
commerce should put itself in correspond
ence with him. officials of the White
Pass and Yukon have offered to work in
connection with the chamber of commerce
to secure this much desired right. The
chamber should avail itself of the tender.
Now is time when every business man
and property owner should forget every
thing save the fact that there is work to
be done to make SISagwsv THE CITY OF
the north. BY doing this work every in
dividual will promote his own prosperity
and be doing service 10 every miner and
merchant accessible bv this route to the
Interior.
Let's quit talking and get to work.

ALTON REACHING OUT.
Is to Become One of the Great Rail-
way Systems of the Southwest.

Is to Become One of the Great Rail-
way SYSTEMS of the Southwest.
CHICAGO, Jan. 81 - Reports coming
from the most reliable sources in railroad
circles say that the Chicago & Alton is
about to become one of the great rail-
way systems of the Southwest. few
days ago the Hartman sydicate bought
out the Quincy, Carrollton & st. Louis.
Later this branch was added to the Alton
mileage, and subsequently it was an
nounced that the line would be extended
to Quincy. This move, 1t Is now assert
ed, is made with the direct object of Sc
curing control, or, at any rate, to be In
a position to absorb the Omaha Kan
sas City & Eastern and the Omaha &
ST. Louis roads, of which Charles III.
Chappelle, formerly the general manager
of the Alton, is one Of the receivers.
These two roads have 215 miles OF
track AS part of the Alton system they
would furnish an excellent. line from St.
Louis to Omaha.
1t is asserted by. persons close to the
Alton management that the Hartman
syndicate has decided to add the Kan
sas City, Pittsburg & Gulf line to the
system Again it is asserted the Alton
will soon take in the Kansas City q
Northern, connecting railroad running
now from Kansas City to Pattonsburg,
eighty-one miles, where it connects with
the Omaha & st. Louis, former Still
well road, to Council Bluffs and Omaha.
With this line the Alton would -estab-
fish direct route to Omaha from Kan
sas City only go miles long.
These possibilities, If realized, Woulo
give the Alton terminals. at Chicago, st
Louis, Omaha and Port Arthur

Andrew Carnegie's Address Before
the Lotus Club.

the Lotus Club.
NEW YORK, Jan. 27-Andrew Carnegie
was the guest of honor at dinner given
by the Lotos club tonight There were
numerous speakers, chief among them be-
ing Andrew Carnegie President Law
renee, of the Lotos club; President Seth
Low, and w. Bourke Cochran. In the
course of his speech, Mr.. Carnegie said:
sAs it has been said that the future of
the English-speaking race is not to be
found upon the shores of the Tweed or
Thames, but on those of the Hudson and
the Mississippi, so say the future seat
of shipbuilding is not to be found on the
shores Of Britain, but on our Atlantic sea-
board l can see nothing to prevent this
country of ours being the chief source
of supply of steel and the articles made
from steel, for the rest of the civilized
world Our supplies Of raw material, iron,
stone. coal and limestone are superior to
those Of any other known part of the
globe, and we have in the American work
ingman, with our stimulating climate and
our free schools, and I hope our free
libraries, a workingman superior to any
other that has appeared upon the earth
more intelligent, quicker, more versatile,
more progressive and, let me add, more
fair-minded, more industrious, more sober
and altogether more of a self-respecting
man than any other nation has been ia
Vored with.
~ think a great mistake Of the Ameri-
can business man is that he thinks by
constant attack, keeping his nose to the
grindstone, taking fewer holidays, that
he insures success. He would be far more
successful if he played more and drudged
less. And besides he would have better
time. He would have more Of the pur-
chase of satisfactions, which the phil
osopher tells US is the chief object Of life.
When he cannot travel let him spend
some days on the golf links, the best sub
stitute
Private charity must be discriminating
in order to be useful. More pauperism
will be bred by indiscriminate charity. Let
a multi-millionaire take his millions TO
the slums and call the people together
and say: This is part Of the world s
wealth you have not got. Share and share
alike, and distribute million. Let this
be done and let the millionaire return at
night to see what good his action has
done and he will find not happiness, but
pandemonum. Let him distributed an
other million and another million every
day for a month and pauperism will in
crease every day. He has done more in
jury In a month than he will do good all
the rest of his life"

The Democratic leaders, without excep-

foreshadows accurately the seating OF
Goebel.
The house now stands sixty Democrats,
including Van Meter and Speaker Trim

twenty-six Democrats and twelve Rspub-

The Democrats, on vote in the guber-
material contest, can have but possible
maximum of twenty-four, as Goebel will
have no vote, and Senator Hill, a Goebel
man, is incapacitated by Illness, and has
not qualified. Both sides admit the SEN
ate to be very evenly divided. Seventy
votes are necessary on joint ballot to
seat Goebel as governor
