rRosrEoToRs ARE NEEDED.

There Is much truth in the statement made yesterday through the DAILY ALASKAN by Mir. Erastus Brainard, that the mining camps on the American Yukon have never been thoroughly prOspected. The processes Of mining heretofore followed has been so slow that II a man sunk down on any creek and failed Go ind it rich enough Co pay Co work by the most crude system, the creek was taboOed, and new field sought, while as a matter of fact, in all probability. a hundred feet away in Che right direction there might bc found the very richest kind of pay streak Bat it took au entire season Co sink hole. and he Is indeed a patent man who will prospect an entire creek un- der such conditions. lt will be remcm- bercd that some of the best creeks in Che Klondike country, notably Sulphur, Bunker and Dominion, were regarded as not rich enough for profitable mining for two ycars after the discovery Of FL dorado and Bonanza creeks, and for wear alter Che prospector, iu the klon- dikc country were numbered by the thousands. By systematic and pcrsis- tent prospecting it was discovered that the creeks named were nearly or quite AS rich as those which made Klondike a syuonim for quick profits and grelt richss.
 When the fact that the number Of prospectors on the Ameri an side ot the Yukon has been relatively small since the d scovery Of the immense wealth of the K ondike Is considered in connection with the experience in the latter region. there can little doubt re main that there is great field along the thousands of miles of the Yukon and its tributaries for pruspectors The fact that gold in quantities that would pay large profits if the ground could be worked a. cheapy as in other felds, nearer he ceuters of population, has been found on all the creeks near Min ooS and the HoyuSuk, is good evidence tht thorough snd systematic prospecting would develop creeks in that section of the great North as rich as any yet discovered. Let one creek bc found Co be rich. as was Jack Wade eek. last summer, afte~ year of ha.f.hcartcd working, and others will be found in the neighborhOod Pro,pcctors, and plenty ot them, are all that Is ?, quired Co develop a gold area iu Alaska that will support mill ions oi people and send forth more money on i,s busy way, sustaining and creating commerce, than did California or Australia.

SoEas As mUaoH,sTs.

The Boers a-e making a reputation as humoris,s that will win for them the good will ot Americans if anything will. Max O'Rell In his Brother Jonathan and His Continent refers Co the United States as a nation oi humorists, and he is not far from che truth. So great has been thc American incliu- atiou Co fun, that cunning performances have long been referred Co as Yankee tricks". But our reputation is in dan ger. The sturdy, slow-going aud prayerful South African Dutch are de veloping a surprising taste for such things themselves. They have not only been shooting friendly messages and captured plum pudding at the british iu Lady, mith, but they have just sue cessfully played few tricks on General Whites army that would make Con- necticut Yankee turn green with envy. They rigged up at great pains dummy battery of big logs, and placed it in poe sitiou. The Hriti,hers trained an avail able guns on this make believe brace of biz guns and bomhardcd it for several hours. wasting ammunition that might D owe valuable in the event Of another Boer assault. The same trick was afterwards successfully played with a piece of sewer pipe.
