LA COLECTURIA De SAN JUAN
All Honorable Tesorer0
de Puerto Rico

En- la GCorrespondenciaS del 26 de
corriente hemos leido una noticia er
la que Sc dice que ser4 nombrado, pa.
ra Ia plaza de Collector de Rentas de
esta ciudad, vacante por eesantfa del
senior Dones, ell Collector de Rentas de
Caguas para la vacante de esta el
senior Vera.
No sabemos 10 que haya de cierto
en- esos rumores, pero desde iuego po-
demos asegurar que no corresponds
en- justicia ese ascenso al sefior Ponte
quieu parece que viene ascendiendo q
esos puestos per saltltnt, pues la Co
lecturfa de Caguas, segun tenemos en-
tendido, fue sin m6ritos para clio,
pues debi6 antes empezar por Ell en-
pleo inferior de Sub collector, que
40 sabemos haya desempenado.
Creemos que hay otros empleados
del ramo mas antiques Y tan compe-
tentes por 10 menos, como el senior
Ponte, aquienes deben recompensar-
Sc sus servicios para estfmulo de los
dem4s, encanecidos va en- esOs puestos
& quienes Sc posterga sin raz6n JUS
ti6cada para clio.
Venimos observando, hace algun
tempo, que4 ciertos destinos Sc elevan
hombres nuevos, es decir sin servicios
en- ell ramo respective, hacienda easo
omiso de los que estan va dentro de la
carrera que no tieneu otro porvenir
que llegar gradualmente 4 los desti-
nos mejor retribuidos. Cuando Sc
nombr6 al senior Dones para la plaza
en- que cesa hoy, fu6 precis uno
de esos nombramientos & cue nos re-
ferimos, como Ell del senior Ponte para
Caguas, ell senor Mattel para Areci-
DO Otros mas.
Hora es va de que Sc proceda en-
otra forma Y pOr tautO, .esperamos
que ell Honorable Tesorero, nombrara
para la plaza vacante al collector mas
antique Y para la vacante que resulte
al Sub-colector que este en- iguales
condolences, ascendiendo asf al que
por su antiguedad 10 merezca.
Greemos que la justicia imperara
en- este case y noel favoritismosperso-
nal nj las influencias, pues somos par.
ttdarios de que en- cada ramo de Ia
administration, lleguen q los meiOres
puestos los que estan en- los peores,
es decir, los que tienen m6ritos con-
trafdos para clio.
Esperemos.

water Bill who married all of the La
more family, bought $4,000 worth of
tickets for the dance ball and invited
everybody to dance. l have seen him
buy whole case of eggs at once when
they were selling at 81 each just to
keep somebody else from getting them.
'Swiftwater' got his name from the
fact that he crossed the Klondike riv-
er at high water on a log and beat all
the others out to the claims and had
all he wanted located before any one
could reach the place. He cleaned up,
all told, between 5000, 900 and $500, 900.
l remember a Montana man who lived
at White Sulphur Springs who spent
$4,000 for champagne in one night. I
weighed out the gold for man who
paid So, 1888 for a barrel of high wine.
All this has now changed.
Gambling has been closed down en-
tirely both in Dawson and Nome, and

FLUSH TIMES IN MINING CAMP.
Their Hight Some Marvellous
Prices Were Paid for Luxuries.

From the Chicago Chronicle.
Yes, the flush, wild and woody days
of the Klondike and Nome are now
matters of history said a Montana
man who was in the country from the
start of the boom to the present time
Its about the same as the history of
all the Western mining camps in their
booms days. The first men to go into
the Alaskan country were of the VEN
turesome and reckless sort. Money
came to them by the thousands with
but little effort, and 1t went about as
easily as IL was panned out of the
gravel. 1t is different now. Things
have grown to a normal condition and
the mining business is conducted along
legitimate lines. can remember
when there was not a family in Daw-
son or Nome. Now both of these
places have settled down. They have
schools and churches, and the harum-
scarum life is a thing of the past.
Il conducted a variety theater i'm
Dawson during the early boom. The
only female society there was the va
riety performers, and they made all
kinds of money. Nearly all of the
good lockers married men who made
big stakes, and quite a number have
turned out all right. The salary of
a woman who could do something on
the stage varied from 800 to $3.50 a
week, and they had to be supplied with
a room besides They made 25 per cent.
commission on all liquors sold in their
company. Champagne sold from $40
to $40 pint. but after time the price
was cut to SIS and $50. At this time
eggs hold for 81 apiece and -four 800
sack, and hard to get at that. Mu-
sicians were paid 800 week, while
the leader OF an orchestra got $3.50. l
have seen women in the show cash in
checks calling for from $50 to $500 in
a single night. II was common to see
a waiter sell a single bottle of the
wine five times in one night He would
get a bottle Of settler water and nil
a partly empty bottle with this.
Private boxes would sell for $50
night, and they we're often engaged
two weeks ahead. While everything
was high the business was enormous
The bar receipts we're good for $4,000
a day. Even In that cold country the
ice bill would run up to SIS a week.
and electric lights cost S135 a week
The pay roll for employees was about
$4,000 week. So many glasses were
broken that It was impossible to keep
a supply Of glassware on hand. and
we had 10 substitute copper cups about
the size OF an ordinary whisky glass.

show was over in the theater. Swift
