Koyokuk Stampede.

The news has been brought up the
Yukon by the way of Dawson that re
ports of strikes of almost incredible
wealth in gold have been made along
the koyokuk, and that camps along the
Yukon have been greatly excited and
half of them are deserted by men going
on stampedes to the new districts.
Jack Bourne arrived at Dawson from
Circle by dog team, bringing the report.
Mr.. Bourne says the widest stories are
in circulation as to the extent of the
pay. One report has it that l00S to the
pan was a common thing, and he was
assured by reliable aud conservative
man that the diggings would average
sos day to the man. About Boo men
have stampeded to the diggings
since the news of the strike reached the
Yukon valley, and as a fair result a
good winter trail was broken this
winter. The best way to the koyokuk
diggings in the winter 10 by crossing
the divide between Fort Yukon and
the headwater streams. But the upper
Yukon trail is now breaking and in too
poor condition for reaching Fort Yukon.
1t is 8 miles from Fort Yukon over
the divide to the diggings. Supplies
have to be taken in by dog team. The
pay is not found on the river proper.
but on four tributary gulches debouch
ing on the left limit. These gulches
head in low, rounded range of hills
to the south of the Koyokuk, and are
known TO possess a pay streak more
than thirty feet wide and from three to
seven feet thick Bedrock is twelve
feet deep and consists of shattered
slate, in which is found the best pay.
The two best gulches are known az
Mckinley aud Bryan. There are thirty
miners on each gulch. Only a small
portion of each creek has been staked.
IL was decided at miners meeting to
prohibit stalking by power of attorney.
The size of claims is limited to 50J feet
long and from rim to rim. 1t is esti-
mated there are claims for 500 miners
and there are less than 25O in the dis
trict. The stampeders who left Cripple
expect to do we'll. The original flnd in
the district was on Myrtle Creek last
year, aud it did not prove big. Dis
couraged miners on the way out tried
prospect on Mckinley gulch. The first
pan yielded 2S-Alaska Dispatch.

HAWAIPS NEW
u. S. ATTORNEY
Sketch Of the Career of Hot
j. c. Baird Who Will
SO n Arrive Here.

President Mckinley has made the APP
pointment of Col. j. c. Baird for Unit
ed States attorney OF Hawaii, says the
Cheyenne (Wyoming) Leader. While
the appointment was practically decid-
ed upon several days ago, when it was
announced in our columns, it was not
mace by the President until Saturday
As formerly stated, the friends of
the gentleman in Wyoming are satisfied
that President Mckinley could have
made no better appointment He will
be credit to his country and the re-
gret felt here at his removal from our
midst, is alleviated by the knowledge
that the climate of Hawaii will unaues-
tionably prove beneficial to his health.
and in the discharge of his duties he
will be of great value in the upbuild-
ing OF the new territory and an honor
to the state from which he halls.
Col. John c. Baird is a native of
Plttsburg, Penn. In early life he was
editor OF the Herald of that city, ana
IN 1873 came to Cheyenne to edit the
Leader. Pursuing the study of law
begun years before, he was admitted
to the bar in 1880, and a profitable
and successful practice was assured
him from the start. Public offices were
entrusted to him and he was prosecut-
ing attorney for two terms, school trus-
lee and several years member of the
legislature. He has held the office of
Judge advocate general of the state
with the rank of colonel, for nine years.
In public enterprise Colonel Baird
has always been an important factor
He was the last president of the board
of trade. He is also jealous in the
Masonic fraternity, being a past grand
commander OF the Knights Templar
and the present grand recorder and
correspondent In the Scottish Rite
he has attained the thirty-seeond de-
gree.
On account of the isolation of Ha-
wan and the fact that it requires more
than TWO weeks time to communicate
with the general government, the du-
ties OF the officers representing the
national government will be delicate
and full of responsibility. Much for
etgn shipping is ever present in the
ports of the islands, and with the set
Element OF the Philippine troubles. the
building of the Nicaragua canal and

on the Islands will be vastly increased
and become of greater Importance.
As the legal representative of the
United States in the islands, Colonel
Baird's duties VIII be arduous and i'm
lportant. 1t is believed by his friends
that he viii bring to the discharge of
his duties the same safe Judgment
that has hitherto characterized his ad-
ministration of public affairs.

u For the first time under the Territory
Ithe Board of Education met yesterday
afternoon at the Judiciary building.

An important resolution on the sub

MR.. Ven Holt, and after some discus
sion was passed by unanimous vote.
The resolution was as follows: I'm

the Territory, it is the sense of the
Commissioners of Public Instruction
that the employment of teachers and
attendance of pupils suffering from
that or any other contagious or infec-
tious disease is against the best inter-
ests of the schools, and the commits
sioners request the Board of Health to

to believe, are suffering from tubercu-

WILL CHART WATERS

Regular Path to be Established

WASHINGTON, June 11.-Important
work for the benefit of commerce in
the Pacific is to be performed by the
navy now that Congress has authorized
the appropriation of 500, 900 for ocean
and lake surveys.
Rear Admiral Bradford. chief of the
Bureau of Equipment, has approved a
recommendation by Commander Todd
for an elaborate charting of the TRAN
gle formed by the Hawaiian Islands,
The southernmost point of the Philip
pines and the islands of Japan.
1t is also proposed TO establish a path
between, Honolulu and the Philippines
to be followed by American warships.
so that If any become disabled Others
following may pick them up. 1t is be-
lieyed that merchant vessels will be
prompt to adopt the route There is
now no general path.
Germany has not been expected to
JOIN in the survey of the Pacific, though
It is believed that when she learns OF
the action of this Government she will
follow its example in making complete
surveys of her Pacific islands.
1t is understood, of course, that the
United States can obtain more expedi-
tious results by cooperating with other
nations. Japan has expressed her will
'ingness to chart the waters in the
vicinity of her islands and Great Brit
ain has charted to some extent the Chi
ma Sea and the East Indies.

result announced.
The qualification of those entitled to
vote in the Senatorial primary are
fixed in the following resolutions
adopted by the Democratic COMMITTEES:
Whereas, The Democratic organi-
cation of North Carolina is a part of
the National Democratic organization,
and this committee is the custodian of

''Whereas, This committee is in

IT LOOKS LIKE BRYAN.

Every day for the past week the in
dications of Bryan's election have
grown brighter and brighter, and
many who two weeks ago felt that he
could not win now feel confident of
his election.
The result depends upon the vote
of three classes:
/. The men who belong to labor or
CARNATIONS. Every sign points to
their voting almost solidly for Bryan.
The Republicans are employing every
effort to divide this vote. If they do
not succeed, Bryan's gains will be so
large from this source that he cannot
be defeated.
2. The German vote. In 1896 this
vote went almost solidly to Mckinley.
This year it is claimed that a large
per cent of it will be cast for Mr..
Bryan. AS rule, the Germans are
Saying nothing and saving wood
They do not march in the professions
of either party or otherwise indicate
their preference. Nobody knows how
to place this vote. If Bryan gets half
of it, he will win.
3. The farmer vote. The Republi-
cans admit that they will sustain large
losses from the labor vote, but claim
that they will make sufficient gains
in the rural districts to overcome any
losses in the city. Will the farmer
vote remain substantially as it was in
1896. If so, and Bryan makes the big
gains in the cities that are expected,
he will win. Independent men nearly
all agree that there will be little
change in the vote among the farmers.
The Republican expectation of gains
in this direction seem destined not to
be realized.
The Democratic leaders are conf
dent of success and their confidence
is based upon the manifest opposi-
ton of the people to the policies OF
McKinley's administration. They dc
not believe that coercion, bribery OF
corruption can be successfully prac-
tised this year.
| Let's all get ready to celebrate on
| Tuesday night! But-and more i'm
portant-let's roll up an unprecedent-
ed majority for Bryan and Stevenson

there is danger of losing in close
counties. The momentous issues at
stake should arouse the Democrats to
make up in activity on Monday and
Tuesday for the inactivity of the
campaign. Get out the full vote. See
to- it that the aged and infirm have
conveyances to get to the polls, that
those who are over-confident be made
to see the necessity of voting, and
that the full Democratic vote is polled.
