KlONDIKt IS AS
 GOOD AS EVER

Capt l. B. SanbOrn, of the W. P. X Y. R. steamer WhitehOrse, has no ps- tience with those who are attempting tO convey tbe idea that the KlOndike is on the decline. He is quoted by the Post-Iuteiligencer as follows:
 "The falling away in the population of the Dawson district does not mean to imply that that portion Of the Yukon is any less rich in mineral deposits than it has been It simply means that there is temporary desire On the part of the inhabitants to winter elsewhere while they are in search of gold The Tan ana is a rich district and presents Op- portunities, or appears to offer them, for the individual miner that the Dawson district does not. Dawson has become a district otlarge operators and big corporations, and these will con- tiuue to make a good thing out of their work there as they have in the past"
