LOSE GOLD
Many People Get POkes
 COnfscated


 Many and bitter are the complaints that are being made by people coming out from Dawson on account of the con fs,atiou of gold pokes. Every day, or nearly so, money Is lost because the owners have either neglected to pay the export tax, or because they are try ing Co avoid the same. The train was stopped about 10 miles out of White horse yesterday to permit two Hunker creek miners to get oG and walk back 0 WhuehorSe in order to try to get their gold back One of them had sl,- O0O and the other $500. Both stated that they had not heard of the rule which requires that they pay an export tax. or forfeit their gold dust. How ever. both of them submitted to being searched before they admitted that they had gold in their possession.
 A more aggravating case, but one that involved less money, was that of Henry Cartier. According to the story of Mir. Cartier. he stated to a member Of the mounted police that he had a small poke of gold upon which he had not paid the export tax He said that he had kept it separate from the poke upon which he had paid the tax as he was paving his travelling expenses out of it. Hc states that the policeman stated Co him that he would see him the next day on the train. When they met on the train, Mir. Cartier says the policeman confsCated his gold notwith- standing that he offered Go pay the tax and admitted freely that he had the gold.
 other, have had nuggets that were being kept as pocket pieces taken from them X woman complained the other day because her two children had been given a small nugget each just before leaving Dawson only ,o have them con f,cated when she reached the train of the W. r. x Y. R. R.
 On Che other hand, the officers at Whitehorse state that they have been fooled very often by people who have deliberately tried to violate the law. On more than one occasion people have Smugcled gold through, and then boasted of the accomplishment. Itwas Co make this impossible that the rule was apopted to search everybody, and the officers of the law state that they are only obeying the plain letter of the regulation that was adopted upon order of Che department at Ottawa.

A Democratic Opinion.

The difference between President
Roosevelt and the machine politicians
is not merely one Of opinion: it is a
difference In character and habit OF
thought. The mere machine poll
tician thinks first Of the discredit
which may be cast upon his party by
exposure Of its rascals and hastens to
cover up corruption lest the enemies
make use Of it to the disadvantage OF
his party in campaign, President
Roosevelt regards the existence OF
corruption as o discreditable thing,
and bis first thought is to make his
administration and his party deserv-
ing Of credit by giving the country
clean government and honest service.

"A willing Dependent. "

Under the heading "a Wiling De-
pendent" the New York Times Of
last Friday, thus reviews the flood
situation In Kansas, and the aid tina:
has been given those who suffered
from 1t: 1.-THE kind words We we're
moved to write when the rains de-
scended ami the floods came upon the
Kaw valley and the people OF Kansas
appealed to their neighbors for i'm
mediate help in relieving the suffering
and destitute do not seem to have
been warranted by subsequent hap
penings. Among other things we
expressed the belief that Kansas
would not for a moment be willing
to look to others Tor anything she
could do or provide for her own peo-
pie, and that as soon as the agencies
Of self help could be set in motion
they would be found equal to any de-
mand which might be made upon
them. Gov. Bailey seems to have
had good opinion Of the people OF
bis own state as 1t gave us pleasure
to express. As soon ss possible he
called an extra session Of the legisla-
ture to consider the situation and
devise means 10 relieve the suffering
/ In the flooded district. II was ex-
pected that the legislature would
make an emergency appropriation OF
at least SS,O0O,0 1000. 1t passed few
local bills, authorizing counties to
issue bonds to rebuild bridges, ap-
propriated $4,000 to cover mileage
and per diem expenses Of the mem
bers, and adjourned, having done
nothing to meet the necessities Of the
10000 people rendered homeless by
the inundation and left with nothing
but the clothes they were wearing.
Comment on this incident would seem
almost unnecessary. Kansas 10 and
always was freak state. II claims
to raise more cranks and impossible
people generally to the acre than any
other state in the union, and the claim
is not disputed. It may be counted
on to do the unexpected whenever
opportunity is offered. When food,
or drought, or grAsshoppers, make 1t
again necessary to "pass the hat, It
10 to be hoped that the satisfaction
Its legislators now derive from the
economy Of willing dependence upon
the outside help In case Of need will
not be remem bered to the disadvan-
tage Of Its people,"

For National Committeeman.

The Emporia Republican says; We
are for Dave Mulvane for national
committeeman because he Is q young
man and not contaminated with .
long experience Of political treachery
or infdelity, nor no other life Of sus-
picion, for bis Is a life Of the utmost
decehcy and honesty, lie is not an
Office seeker. He held the office one
term and his record is unquestion-
able. No one can produce q better
record, and yet he Is tried and comes
through the fire Of the test untarnish-
ed. There are no chances to be taken
In this selection. Mr.. Mulvane Is q
loyal man; he Is a true and trusted
man; be is not an offensive man, but
man calculated to harmonize and o
man free fr,m all cliques. There is
not q man In Kansas who is better
calculated and fitted to bring to-
gether the various elements and
maintain harmony in the party, and
good government within the party
for the party, as well as for the citi'
zens Of the state Of Kansas. Dave
Mulvane is the man who will pro-
duce these results. There is no use
to compare this man with any
other man thus far thought OF, for
none will bear comparison. Tho Re-
publican believes that Mulvane will
be agreeable and pleasing to the
president, as the national committee
man from Kansas.

some needed instruction. Here, for
