GOOD TRADt
Dawson Merchants Have Big
 Sales

Sales of merchandise in Dawson the last week have Eeen heavier perhaps than for any time since last summer, says the Dawson News of May 20. The demand for goods for shipment to Tan ana, Stewart and Yukon river towns and wood camps and coal mines has been the chief cause of the big sales. Opening of new summer works on big properties on the creeks also has caused a good demand,
 The demoralization in the price of groceries and provisions continues with no promise of immediate termination. Merchants are complaining at the low rates at which goods have to go, but the fight continues.
 Eggs, fresh fruits, potatoes and the like are about as usual. Scarcely any thing in the market has been affected by new arrivals from the outside, and likely win not until Lake Laberge is open.
 The first fresh mutton arrived last on the hoof and will be put on the market immediately.
