YUKON POLITICS

Our Canadian friends in the Yukon will have an abundanes oi politics during this year. Some time ln the fall there will be an election for a representative in the Do- mlnlon parliament. This contest promises to be a live one, ;There are several dis,in>t elements ln the Yukon and each will strive to have lts way. There are those who h.vs opposed the local government at Dawson, who will advocate the election ot a non-parilSan representative. Then there Is the liberal par.v supporters who want a government representative, and there are many conservative party plrti- sans, who think they see ln the opposition to the local government an opportunity to add ooe vote to the minority at Ottawa. There wll also probably De a contest among the liberals themselves. The old OBfien faction which was teieatei ln the eontest for members of the Yukon council a year and half ago, which Is known IS the Eoyemmsn, support. will probiOlv ,ry to control the rlr,v caucuses, counting on party loyalty To reverse the result of O. tob.r to,o. But II 10 gets Co partisan contest, these win nO, have it an thelr own way. Arthur Wilson, who led the fight ag,Ins, Jh glyemmen, lt the eoun- ell election, and who d-fsl,si O'srIsn for eouncilm n, Is also a liberal in politics and may be able to thwar, the aims Of the O'BrisnI,ss.
 Then there will also be another election for members Of the Yukon council next fall lt win be for five members and there win be no end of asplraniS. This election will probably not be on party lines.
 All this will be followed next January by the DaW son municipal election. which ylIl probably be no time affair Itself.

GOVERNOR ROSS.

The people of the Yukon have reason to be grateful to Governor Ross. Although lt has been but a shor, time, relatively speaking, since he received his appolnt- meni, he has become conversant with the situation obtaining In that country. He slrly recognized the necessity for more llberaI legislation and at Oncs set himself about getting wha, was needed. Ills splendid abilities have been devoted io the task with an energy that Is seldom exhie- lssd by one in such a position. Ills high standing with the government hasisned the frultlOn of hls efforts, but that stand lnz was gained by just such patriotic en- srsy as he has displayed In behalf of the long suffering people Of the KlOndiks.
 While Governor Ross has done a splen- dld work and done lt we'll. his career Ia the Klondlke has been at a terrible slerl- fee to himself. And that fact adds to ths strength of the bonds Of friendship and love existing between him and the hardy people oi the north. There Is enthroned In the hearts of Yukonsrs a feeling for  Governor Ross that will outlast m ,nu- msnis Of stone.
