The Tanana Gold Fields.

A copy of the Daily Morning
Alaskan of March p was lately re-
ceived at this office. The paper is a
7-column folio, printed at Skagway.
The subject matter published gives
assurance that Alaska is prospecting.
The new gold discoveries in the
Tanana district are described and
the rush to the new fields indicated.
Seven steamers have been fitted out
at Skagway for the new fields to
leave as soon as the ice is out of the
river. In the meantime a large
overland emigration for the Tanana
district has set in.
The distance to the Tanana fields
from Skagway is about 1000 miles,
and the journey can be made in
about IS days. The railway takes
passengers III miles to Whitehorse,
and from there a steamer runs to
Circle City 686 miles, It takes
about six days from Skagway to
Circle City. From here the fields
are 200 miles distant. Another
route, all water, is by way Of the
Yukon and up the Tanana river to
within 20 miles Of the gold fields.
This new discovery is considered by
far the richest that has so far been
found in Alaska.

There is good deal of talk, most
ly in the Democratic newspapers,
about a revision Of the tariff. With
the Democrats tariff revision is a
staple article. They have discussed
it and made party issue of it since
1884. Grover Cleveland presented
the question to Congress in mes
sage during his incumbency as presi-
dent of the United States. He was
supported by both houses of Con
gress in an attempt to revise the
tariff. The result was not such as
to cover the Democratic party with
glory. 1t covered it with discredit
rather. The Dingley tariff, a Re-
publican venture, has brought un-
exampled prosperity to this country.
For all this it may not be assumed
that hard and fast set of schedules
should always exist. 1t does not
stand to reason that they should.
Conditions change in the industrial
world. Possibly the tariff should
frequently be readjusted to meet
conditions as they take on changed
form. We have read great deal
of discussion on the tariff and we
have come to the conclusion that it
is an intricate proposition. We con-
fess that we do not understand it
nearly as well as we wish we did.
In fact we do not believe that the
tariff is responsible for all it is ac-
cused of. Here is one little incident
we do not understand: Congress
at its last session took off the 10 cents
a pound tariff from tea. Now if
that was tax of ten cents pound
on tea we ought to get tea ten cents
a pound cheaper since the tariff was
abolished. We don't. We give
the same price for tea that we did
last summer.
We notice that a considerable
number of papers give it as their
opinion that the tariff should be re-
vised. The most Of these statements
are ''inspired." Somebody else had
said the tariff should be revised.
Some of them don't know all there
is to learn about the tariff. 1t is our
opinion that a commission should be
appointed to study the tariff in its
relation to trade and conditions and
report the result Of their studies to
J Congress.

A bill to make Lincoln's birth

have the effect to give the schools

the bill contemplates reverence
for the memory Of Lincoln-can be
better secured by recommendation

served in the schools by the study of

President Roosevelt in discussing
economic questions, as well as those
which involve national relationships,
shows not only remarkable informa-
ton but sound judgment in conclu-
sions. In his speech on the Monroe
Doctrine and in that on the trusts
given last week he shows his knowl
edge of facts and conditions and
takes high ground in his conclusions.
His statements are eminently sound
and commend themselves to the ac-
ceptation Of thoughtful and unprej-
udiced people. In the following
statement he covers the ground con-
templated in dealing with the sub
iect of trusts:
''The evil has been partly the in
evitable accompaniment of the social
changes, and where this is the case
it can be cured neither by law nor
by the administration of the law, the
only remedy lying in the slow
change of character and of economic
environment. But for a portion of
the evil, at least, we think that
remedies can be found. We know
we'll the dangers of false remedies,
and we are against all violent, radi-
cal, and unwise changes. But we
believe that by proceeding slowly,
yet resolutely. with good sense and
moderation, and also with a firm
determination not to be swerved
from our course either by foolish
clamor or by any base or sinister in
huence, we can accomplish much
! for the betterment of conditions

The instruction in the European

1t is likely to involve Russia and

The Filipino is composite indi-

whence arises the darker pigment

the japanese, Chinese and Cambo-

1t would be reasonable to suppose
that the services of a game warden
would be most opportune to see that
the law against fishing during the
closed season was observed. There
seems to be great temptation for
some to go fishing few weeks be-

be that the boys are only practicing
on suckers. But the game warden
shouldn't be a sucker.
