BACK FROM KLONDIKE.

spring After the next wash viii
intends to log his claims which are on
a tributary and he viii drive to
Dawson where logs are worth $40 per
thousand. The timber in Alaska is prin-
cipally fur and spruce. The only hard
wood is white birch and that is not very
plenty; all kinds of produce can be
grown there as the land is very produc-
tive in the valleys.
He likes the country very much and
thinks it is by far the richest of any of the
possessions of the United States The
climate is not nearly so bad, as relates
to excessive heat and cold spells, as
painted. But there is one thing that
makes Will mad when he talks about it
and that is the way the Canadian gov
eminent robs the peope who go in
there. As for law and order it is as
good as could be asked, the mining
laws are rank; $1,000 a year is charged
every man in the Klondike The law
makes it obligatory for every man to
take out miners license each year,
which costs $1,000. 90 cents on every
cord of wood has to be paid to the gov
eminent. For every dollar taken out of
the mines, 10 cents has to be paid the
government. A very heavy tariff is
charged for every cents worth of goods
brought into the territory. In plain
words, it is robbery, and yet the British
have the audacity to say that they are
lighting the Beers on account of their
miserable laws. Great consistency
that. Mr.. Andrews says that just as
soon as he can get away he is going to
leave Canadian soil and cross the line
into the American wilds, and thousands
are making arrangements to do the
very same thing.
Will left Dawson on the 18th day of
going up the Yukon by
boat and crossing the mountains over
to Skagway. He was several days at
Seattle and then started on his trip
across the continent for home. He
could have reached here from Dawson
in just twelve days and two hours by
coming straight through.
Dave Parcher, and Bogue Burnett
are both in Dawson and are we'll though
the latter has had a run of rheumatic
fever lately and on this account he may
come out this fall. Dave is at work for
the government, and has good thing
He will not come out until next year.

his friends and answering their ques-
tons.

They went straight through to Seattle
and from there to Dyea They at
tempted to cross Skagway pass and
falling in this they returned and made
their way over Chilcoot pass to Lake
Linderman, then to Lake Bennett and
through other lakes to the Yukon river,
thence down that stream. The party
split at Stewart river; Lamphier,
Parcher and Andrews going straight
through and reaching Dawson on the
23d of October and the balance going
up Stewart. river, where they were
frozen in and had to make their way
later to Dawson on the ice, reaching
there on Christmas Mr. Andrews says
he would not attempt another trip like
that for the very best gold mine in
Alaska. Since reaching Dawson, VIII
has worked faithfully at mining and at
times had a good sized pile of money,
but with this he purchased other
properties which did not pan out well
aud he would lose and start over again
He says if he had had plenty of money
when he reached Alaska he could have
had comfortable fortune now The
past year he has been engaged in min
ing in company with Perry Clarke, of
Rhinelander, on left of 80 below, on
Bonanza creek. They had no water
with which to sluice so have a years
work on top of the ground. Win says
that the dump will wash out something
like $40, 900, but one half of this goes to
the owner of the ground. and quite an
amount will 60 for expenses, so it will
net them only about $4,000 each, which
is a pretty good years work
Will came out to see his mother, more
and will return Immediately
after the holidays. He will take back
with him three heavy teams and do
some logging from several timber
berths which he has secured A timber
berth is grant of land mile square,
which one gets from the Canadian gov
eminent by paying S275. The grant is
gotten in the same manner in which
our lumbermen buy land They send
out cruiser, estimate, etc., and when a
good piece is found it is taken up.
Mining is all done in Alaska during the
winter months, and the dump is washed
out when there is plenty of water in the
