R. w. Jennings is Enthusias-
tic Over Lower Yukon
TRADE WILL BE BIG
The Country Will Develop Rapidly
and Next Year There Will Be n
Large Population To Be Fed and
Clothed BY Somebody.

r. W. Jennings. who has just returned
from Jack Wade creek and the Forty Mile
district Is very enthusiastic over the future
of that country. He says Jack Wade
creek is very rich, but the output will not
be verv large becaose so many of the claims
are tied up by litigation. He believes
there will be large trade on the lower
river next year.
"Onlv about ten claims," said Mr., Jen-
nlngs, 'are being worked extensively. or
these perhaps the richest are thuse of Han
sen & Tenant of Skagwav, who will take
out a fortune this wear.
''The entire Forty Mile district Is rich
and will furnish a good field for trade in
the future There are four hundred miners
now in the district, but there will be many
more next year. Eagle City seems to be
thriving citv.
"There will undoubtedly be great devel-
opments on the lower Yukon during the
next few years. There will be lots of
people there to be clothed and fed which
will mean big trade for somebody.

TIME IS LOST
American Goods are Delayed
Long at Bennett
HELD BY INSPECTORS
e. 0. Sylvester Returns From the
Interior and Tells of Conditions
Dawson Well Stocked With All
Staples--Good Field For Trade.

E. o. Sylvester, merchant and CITY
councilmen, who returned yesterday from
a visit to Dawson, reports that business
houses OF this CITY and other American
towns are at a disadvantage in competition
against Canadian houses on the outside be-
cause of the fact all American goods must
be checked at Bennett before being per
mitted to 20 forward.
81 know that shipments from this place, "
said Mr.. Sylvester Yesterday, ''have been
DELAYED as much as five to eight DAYS at
Bennett while being waiting to be checked
in compliance with the customs. Freight
loa ded here into cars must be re-handled at
Bennett before proceeding in the same cars
to White Horse.
"While goods from this place are being
DELAYED in that wav at Bennett, shipments
from Canadian houses at Victoria or Van
couver are going onward in bond without
the ANNOYANCE of delav. The matter will
not be remedied until customs house is
established at White Horse, which, | dare
say will not be soon, probably not this
season.
1.-The Dawson market is we'll supplied
with staples, but believe any one with
capital to operate will find good market
for nearly every staple there any time this
fall or in the winter, and especially next
spring before the river opens. Feed is not
overly plentiful there now.
"The market in pershables is we'll sup
piled generally, and very sensitive. For
instance. while was there eggs fluctuated
from 81 to SI2 in dav or two.
"The output of the camp will be about
$40 900, ooo.W Water is not so verv scarce on
the creeks"

TALKED OF THE CAMPAIGN.
Senator kyIe's Private Secretary Tells
How it Was in South Dakota.

TIOW II w GO III SSASh 1aNVsos
From Saturdays Daily.1
F. d. Tinsley, private secretary to
Senator Kyle, of Sioux Falls, South
Dakota, was in Ottumwa a short time
today enroute to Washington, after a
visit with his parents in Blakesburg.
While here Mr.. Tinsley was the guest
of his old friend, Attorney Fred G..
Orelup. He left today for Washing
ton, d. c., where he will resume his
duties with Senator Kyle.
In speaking of the late campaign in
South Dakota, Mr.. Tinsley said that
previous to the visit of Senator M. A.
Hanna to that state, the mere men
tion of that individuals name was suf>
ficient to start a small sized riot, SD
misguided an opinion did the populis-
tic element of the country have OF
hiro and his alleged political workings.
But when Senator Hanna visited the
state, he swept everything before
him, and the hate that the people bore
for him was turned to admiration: the
result was that the republican ticke'
in that state, and more particularly in
the district thru which Senator Hanna
travelled and made addresses, was car
ried with overwhelming majorities.

piano for your home or as a present
for your wife or daughter, no better
opportunity will ever present itself in
Ottumwa for you to purchase high
grade instrument at such a low price.
In addition to this, the terms of pay
ment can be made to suit your pocket
book, and you need not feel that you
have to pay cash down to acquire
piano. Mr.. Field has been in business
in Ottumwa for years and he guaran-
tees that everything represented by
this company is all right in every par
ticular. Many people have confidence
in their local dealer and no more reli-
able merchant does business in OF
| tumwa than he.
We shall look for you in some day
this week, if only to make an inspec-
ton of the handsome hne of pianos in
this sale. The Gable Company.
