Of the committee were that the report was
absolutely ground,ess and was accompanied
with abundant record proofs II. is hardly
necessary TO state that the report of the
committee was unanimously adopted. The
discussion preceding the adoption of the
report was as animated as interesting and
all remarks were full Of the most intense
loyalty to the name and fame of the great
commander.
Judge ]. r. Reed of Council Bluffs an
honored member of the society, spoke with
intense feeling on this aspersion upon the
memory of General Grant.
Never for an instant did Grant ever
contemplate or dream Of a dictatorship.
Had he done so 100000 sabers were ready
to spring from their scabbards in defense
Of law, liberty, right. humanity and jus
tice. Had Grant ever for a moment
dreamed Of a dictatorship his time was
that dreadful night when the great Lin
coin lay dying from an assassin's bullet,
when members Of his cabinet we're writing
in pain from the assault of murderous as
sassins and the government stood on the
verge of untold disaster. But Grant was
too great too grand to let a dream Of am
btion disturb him for moment. His
only thought was that of the people of the
United States He had the supremest con-
fidence in them and knew that no trial, no
emergency, no disaster, no sorrow, was too
great for the American people to meet with
heroic fortitude and stern realization Of
loyal duty"
No less emphatic and sincere were the
remarks OF Generals Dodge and Howard
vindicating the memory of General Grant

BREAKUP AT DAWSON
 KEPT THEM GUESSING

Passengers from Dawson on the Panama last Monday said that from the forenoon of May 9 to :: II on the morn ing of May II, the official time of the breakup, the ice was momentarily ex- pected to move at the big Canadian camp.
 Finally huge ice cake, bearing the flags, held its place for several hours with long stretch of open water below it; and the excitement became intense A large amount of money changed hands, probably more than at any other breakup in Dawson'> history. The bet ting was feverish up to the very moment the flags moved. Ilalf-hour pools and minute pools were formed, in addition to the big open pools that were iuaugu- rated at nearly every resort.
 The Dawson News says the biggest poul in the klpn,likc was that at the Bonanza saloun, sl l'iS. The winners were W. A Ecid, q druggist, and Rich ard rCennel. lahnFer.

TO WORK ROADS
Commissioner Would Do All
 Possible This Season.

Considerable interest has been mani tested among the miners in regard to the possibilities of having the trails bettered this season by the road law, hitherto unregarded. Steps will be taken to insure the two days work re- quired by law of each man in the dis trict, or, in lieu of that, the payment of $S; and the work will be pushed as far as possible this summer.
 The road commissioner requests that those desiring to pay the tax will do so before June l5. The tax may be paid to W. B. Ballou, commissioner, or it may be given to G. H. Wand, at the \. C. store, or to David w. Scott, at What Cheer Bar, who also have the proper blanks and are authorized to issue receipts.
 An effort is being made by Commis- sioner Ballou to get into communication with Major Richardson of the Alaska road commission, in order that the work of the former may harmonize as fully as possible with that of the latter on the contemplated road between Rampant and Eureka. Commissioner Ballou is keenly alive to the importance of the Alaska commission at least establishing the route so that the work to be done by the precinct will not be expended along line that may later be rejected by the body possessing final jurisdiction. It is believed that if the matter can be brought to Major Richardson's atten- tion he will directa speedy survey of the road.
 The trail at present is practically inn passable With the water accommodating and the packing season just commen- cing, nothing but well-directed work can prevent it remaining menace to horses and terror to foot travellers the summer through.

REPUBLICAN CLUB
 IN CONSIDERATION

There has lately been considerable talk of organizing Rampant republican club.
 Some republicans are not favorable to the proposition on account of the move ment of the miners regarding the cleo tion of congressional delegate. They point out that it would appear some what inconsistent to be in active mem bership in a republican organization and at the same time support the miners candidate against the republican nomi- nee, which good many would undoubt- edlv do. The matter of forming the club has been deferred for further con sideration.
 If the organization is effected there will be strong effort to oust Frank D.. Wells as committeeman. In fact, it is said that is the principal object in view by those in favor of a club.

A Remarkable Pansy Bed.

The first snows last September caught the Pansy bed at the experiment station in full bloom. This spring when the snow disappeared the plants were found green and fresh looking, with buds and half-open blossoms showing in their natural purples and yellows. \ week later the buds began to open up. The blossoms, though trihe smaller than normal, are perfect in shape and color, and show no evidence of their eight months Information. This is especially remarkable in view of the fact that the past winter was the coliest ever re- corded on the Yukon Readers will remember that the record for the first twenty-thrce days in January showed an average minimum of more than fifty degrees below zeru.

LOCAL GARDENING
Planting Under Way and
 Good Results Likely.

Spring gardening is we'll under way, and everything points to season of great plenty in the line of me-grown vegetables.
 Captain Mayo's fine plat of ground near the mouth of Rampant creek was plowed ten days ago. As an experiment, it had been intended to treat this field with a steam thawer but the thawer was not completed in time, and potatoes were planted under the same system that has proved so successful in the past. Captain Mayo has secured the Folboeui tract on the Rampant creek hillside, and was to commence planting it today.
 Mr. Heeter planted d lot of potatoes several days ago. Nearly all his ground will be plowed by tonight In point of acreage and diversity of crops he will be the leader, unless he is rivalled by Mr. Rader at the agricultural experi- ment station.
 TldUh ENitiltll llstS HIS ltlbt Stl back so as to take in more ground, and the fine garden at his residence has been drained and put in thorough condition.
 Jerry Ford has fenced and plowed q tract at his residence which will be ready to plant very soon.
 A tract is being fenced adjoining Frank Stevens's cabin (recently occu- pied by MT. and Mrs. Hawkins), and it will be planted in potatoes by Bob Schaber. Mir. and Mrs. Schaber have d fine little plat at their residence which has heretofore produced superior vege tables and flowers, and is now we'll pre- pared.
 John Clinton, at the lower end of town, is most successful gardener, but his progress this spring has not been learned. He is generally especially sue ceSsful with cabbage and caulitlower.
 Nearly every resident in town will have a garden of some kind, and of course the ladies will take especial pains with their flower beds, which are al ways so attractive during the short summer season.
 At the first of the week Mr Rader had not commenced to plant at the ex- pertinent station across the river. He hauled over a large quantity of manure during the winter and will probably raise some good crops.
