from the large dumps of earth taken out
of the claims during the winter months
Residents are very much gratified at the
excellent mail service. the mail coming and
going regularly every week all through the
past winter, letters only from the United
States, however. Provisions are a little
cheaper in some lines, but there is no
change in the cost of living, and board and
lodging at 500 month, eggs at IS per
dozen, oranges at 81 each, and apples of
questionable quality costing so cents apiece
are examples of the high prices at Dawson
City. The license on saloons has been re-
duced from $50 per annum to $500. A
duty of 81 per gallon is assessed on all
wines, liquors and beer brought into the
Yukon territory
by August it is expected that the White
Pass & Yukon Railroad will have been ex-
tended seventy miles to White Horse and
from there in the summer months the
steamers can make the run to Dawson
City in couple of days. All kinds of boats
are being fitted up in Dawson to convey
people to Cape Nome, but many people
came into Dawson last winter as went
out"
