DAWSON CITY GROWING.
Modern Improvements Being Made in
the klondike Metropolis.

the klondike Metropolis.
Washington. Aug. S.-Dawson City is.
Improving fast, according to report
from Consul McCook. Modern dwellings
and Warehouses are going up, new
court house is about completed, and
work has been started in the new ad-
ministration buildings and residence
for the governor. notwithstanding the
long, cold winter" says Consul McCook,
there was continual flow of pure wa
ter from we'll sunk on the banks Of
the Klondike river.
The water is pumped direct into the
main from the we'll under such pressure
that the pipes are kept open. Taps are
located on the sidewalks all over the
city. Ice costs only cents pound,
the lowest price this luxury has been In
any summer. Rents are not lower, but
will be reduced in the near future.
The gold output will. 1t is said, fall
short of the estima te made earlier in the
year one reason being the long winter.
1 think s2O,000eA0 fair estimate for this
years product. Many Of the pichest
claims have not yielded as much this
season as formerly. While there ie a.
large gold-bearing area in this territory,
the miner must learn to work more eco
nomically. On the Hootalinqua river
and at other points there are good indf-
cations but prospectors will not go there
yet, as the grounds are too far away
from base of supplies. After The pla-
Ger mines near Dawson are worked out,
the attention of the miners will be
turned to fields in this territory not yet
opened up.
by orders from Ottawa, the whole
country has been thrown open for pros,
pecting, no claims being reserved for
the crown, as formerly. The royalty on
the gross output of the mine. has been
reduced from 10 to 8 per cent
"The government is building good
roads to the mining sections near Daw-
son. which will be of great advantage
to the operators. as their supplies can
be handled at less cost. Good roads are
badly needed in the mining country In
Alaska.
Involved Banker Disappears.
Indianapolis, Aug. S.-Banker Leach
OF Avilla, who was partner OF James
NJ. Key. and who is charged by Key
with uttering all the forged paper, has
fed the state.
The liabilities OF the Avilla bank will
reach s22, 900 to s25. 900. including deposits
by the Odd Fellows, Catholic Old Peo-
pies Home and Town Treasurer Heist.
Leach's wife says she did not know he
was going away.
The investigation by the receiver 6cf
the Commercial Bank at Andrews shows
that the loss to depositors and to allsotf,-
ers who had dealings with Key will Ia
total. Just before the bank was clesed
and the receiver appointed Key sold the
Office furniture and safe to the Capital
National Bank of this city, but the res
ceiver refused to surrender the property.

God as see it. To those loyal friends
VINO have been true.to me and have
given me their entire confidence. 1t is
impossible for me to express my appre-
ciation OF their kindness. shall en-
deavor to fulfill the trust they have im-
posed on me with true loyalty. To those
who have clung as Loyalty to one or an
other OF the honorable gentlemen who
have been my opponents, I wish to saw
mat this victory brings to me no sense
u personal triumph. l am your candi-
date. 1 shall endeavor to merit from
you some of the-confidence you have be-
slowed on the other candidates. II can
secure tithe Of that devotion which
you have manifested to others, I shall
be content. This convention. unsur-
passed in the annals OF the party in
Iowa, begins, in my estimation, cam
Patgn which can only result in victory
SO great that Iowa will continue to be-
hoid Its proud position as one Of the
strongest republican states of the union.
IT Is grand thing to be a republican
anywhere but especially SO in Iowa
where the party has 80 long stood for
progress and all that is best in state
anairs." The eloquence OF Mr.. Cum
minis was well appreciated by the con-
vention,S and his short address was lis-
tened to with rapt attention by the en-
tire convention.
The committee to escort Cummfns to
the convention hall consisted of Joe
Junkin, of Red Oak; Tom Purcell, of
Hampton; George NJ. Curtis, of Clinton.
Craig Wright, of Sioux City, and Thom-
as Way, of Britt. That is committee
OF pretty good Cummfns.
Incidentally 1t may be mentioned in
connection with the convention that
there has not been gathered together in
any place in Iowa in many years such a
large collection of working newspaper
men as at Cedar Rapids. And they were
there to work. too. and did not rest day
or night. One thing that ought to be
gratifying to Iowa newspaper men is
tne fact that while 1t was recognized
that this convention was a most impor-
tant one the Chicago papers and others
relied almost entirely on their Iowa men
for the reports. The Iowa papers COW
cred the ground well. And the Cedar
Rapids newspaper men deserve the
greatest credit for the splendid manner
in which they provided for every COM
fort Of the visiting newspaper workers.

might suppose that its shell would protect
it. A Buffalo dealer last season stored
1000 cases of eggs, 800 in case, in the
same house with consignment of pears,
and the eggs took on such distinct pear
flavor that they we're sold for very small
price in the New York market
There is money in the egg business, even
for farmers who go into it in small way
and almost every first class city grocery has
on its books few local farmers who furnish
small supplies of eggs superior in appear
ance and stamped strictly fresh. Very
often these eggs are all the buyers fancy
paints them Sometimes they are fake
pure and simple The wholesale dealers
all know one small down town firm that
buys ordinary eggs of them at fair price,
stamps each one with a Long Island address
and date and sells them at fancy price as
strictly fresh Long Island eggs.
Even the farmers themselves occasionally
Weld to temptation. When man is ac-
customed to providing sixty dozen eggs a
week at big price for New York dealer
and on account of cold weather or natural
cussedness, his hens fail him for week or
two and furnish him only ten dozen week,
his integrity is sadly strained 1t would
be 50 exceedingly easy to run up to New
York, buy fifty dozen fresh eggs at a fair
price, stamp them with his stamp and send
them off. No one would be hurt, the eggs
would be good, and his profits would be in
tact. Presumably the ordinary farmer
groans, "Retro Sathanas, - and stands his
loss, but there are others. That is why
wholesale dealers grin jovially when one
asks them about strictly fresh eggs.
The United States export large quaint
ties Of eggs to the West Indies and South
America, and even send them to South
Africa, but France, Russia, Belgium and
Denmark practically supply the European
market England, oddly enough, produces
few eggs, and imports yearly more than
l, 300, 600, 600 from the Continent.
