Of the famous mines OF the north,
that made dozens of millionaires
during 1898 and 1900. But the

not be reproduced for the simple
reason that no white man has ever

In the early days of the camp a
certain tribe of Indians from the
north arrived in Dawson for the
first time. To the establishment of
the few that first saw the tribe cv-

Forest Reserve Problems

'Idaho has practically !, 100, 900
acres of school lands, tied up in
national forest reserves said At
torney General Guheen, few days
ago, to a Teller reporter, and the
problem of what is TO be done to
recoup the state from this loss is
one Of the intricate problems that
is now confronting the admins
tration. The greater amount of
this land is unsprveyed and its To-
cation is not definitely known and
it's value is undetermined. But
about $4,000 acres are surveyed
and the state can ascertain its ap-
proximate worth, but just how the
government plans to reimburse the
state for its loss IS another ard a
very puzzling question.
In connection with the questions
of state lands and state grants MIR.
Guheen gave out the information
hat nearly all the states special
grants were filled and that il was
difficult even with the little that
remained to be selected to find good
lands I fill the quotas.
Even if they gave IS lieu land
script for our lands within the tor
est reserves, said MIR. Guheen,
there is no place in the state that
we could fill the quota and get
lands that would be worth the min
imum price of $40 an acre
Mr.. Guheen said that the state
had been siugularly helped by the
desert land acts and had been en-
abled to state lands in The
irrigated districts and dispose o
them at a fair valuation. Thu

Disagrccs With Presidents Stand on

Nicholas Murray Butler, president OF

OF Impressions of San Francisco and
California, says the New York IT'D
une. After personal observation DR..
Butler says that he disagrees with
President Rooseyelts stand on the Jap
anese question. lie believes that the
people OF San Francisco are fully jnsle
fed In excluding them from their
schools. Or. Butler says most OF the
Japanese who try to enter the schools
are grown men, and he thinks there Is
no doubt that the policy of placing
them side by side with little children
is bad.
'oThe California sentiment on the
Japanese question has not been thor
oughly understood In the east and has
not been made entirely clear here, ="
said DIR. Butler. "The whole school
question, about which the recent dis
cussion arose, turned in reality upon
the admission or opposition or adult
Japanese side by side with little chill

English language. AS to the unwisdom
Of this there can hardly be two opin-
ions. In southern California the senti-
ment appears to be very critical of San
Francisco's position as to Japanese I'M

pathy with It, Moreover, the people
Of San Francisco are by no means unan-
lmous, and differing opinions are fire.
quently expressed.
1.-THE feeling against Japanese which
has been voiced largely by the Japa-
nese and Korean Exclusion league did
not have a particularly creditable orr
gin, but has been strengthened among
certain classes who fear the japanese
as competitors. The more thoughtful
Californians, however, believe that the
so called problem of oriental immigra-
ton can be more satisfactorily settled
on national rather than on local lines
and thus conserve the best interests OF
the United States and the dignity of
the people Of China and Japan. The
more violent expressions In regard to
this matter seem to me to be the least
representative"
DR.. Butler also told something of the
process of rebuilding the city that Is
now going on.
"Knowing San Francisco as well as
l did," he said, "having followed the
fire by the dispatches and on the map,
I was not prepared for the amount and
completeness Of destruction, nor was
at all prepared for the work done
since the fire. Whole sections of the
city, especially to the north and south.
have been completely or almost COM
pletely rebuilt. The more fashionable
and expensive residence sections have
been practically untouched and remain
just as when the fire left them. The
business sections are rapidly rebuild
ing, although as yet nearly every i'm
portant business house in San Fran
cisco is In temporary habitation."
