NEWS FROM DAWSON.

The list of dredges within 75 miles of Dawson includes six on Bonanza, two on Hunker, three on Forty-Mile, one on Walkers fork, tributary of FOrtymile, one on In dian river, two on Stewart river and two on Klondike river. One more, the largest dredger in the world, is now enroute. In addition to this there are over 40 large hydraulic plants working.
 James Christie, the man who was severly lacerated and almost killed by bear, several hundred miles from Dawson last winter, is now practically recovered
 According to the Dawson News men are scarce in many sections of the klondike region. Operators are paying S450 a day and board at Granville.
 A large vein has been located on Dome Lode property. It is one of the largest yet cut and is of soft material, very favorable for treat ing.

 Then the blow fell. l. came like a tamdcr5or. Deacon Wheeler of the Methodist church and Deacon Ames of the Baptist leased ten acres of Ian! in partnership and planted it 10 corn. Each furnished half the .ced and was to do half the work. One day when the corn was tall enough for the first hoeing and the i've deocons were working side by .'ae Deacon Wheeler pointed to a patch of grass and observed:

 Deacon Wheeler found bumblcbees there. They also found him. They resented his intrusion al once They likewise resented the near presence of Deacon Ames. They went for the tUo men hot foot and got in their work and chased them from the field. IT was after rhe bees had given up he pursuit that Deacon Ames turned To the other and exclaimed:
 Now see what we've got by your moddliu-, If you wasn't an old fool .ou'd have Iet them bumbles aione.'
 "OIl fool? Why, beacon Ames, you are six years oldcr'n | be-"
 .But l told you to let 'em alone"
 Say, Deacon Ames, you are talk .ng mighty sassy!"
 "Hug Eve got right to.
 Yes. talking mighty sassy for a Baptist"
 And what about the Baptists?"
 "WaaI you can see your meeting house from here. Does it look like Il meeting house or a cooper shop? | guess moren one stranger has had to ask to find out"

Those Church Spires

 IL was all over between the de. cons. Deacon Wheeler went home | tell his wife about it. and Deacon Ames walked straight to the parson age and said to the minister:
 "Parson Jones. something has got 10 be did. I've been insulted. our old building has been insultcd, and now if we cant go at it and finish it up m sell out and move away.
 We don't want no cupola nor bell. Cupolas are for schools and bells are for factories.

We'll show the Wheeler crowd Hlcther we've got a cooper shop or the clouds on the one hand and the hearts of the Methodists on the other. It'll be before their eyes night and day.

Our building is going to be right up 10 date. even if We have to put in bathtubs and electric bells

 Going to have a spirc, eh? Going 10 be seen for five miles around. is ii? Waal, you jest wait little. Meb- he thereil be two spires 10 be seen"
 And so there was The Baptists had no sooner begun work on theirs than the other sect started in and sold the bell, demolished the cupola and began on d spire. Then it was a raye to see which spire should be the highest Each one jealously guarded it's secret As matter of fact, as measurements afterward proved, tEc bap'ist spire was just three-quaytcrs of an inch the longest, but one rub her lea!-ing from the earth could no. nayp Ippn sure

 "Gosh!" exclaimed Deacon Ames
 The two spires lay on the ground in masses of wreckage, and neither has been replaced to this day Some blame one deacon and some the other, but it was those bumbebees that brought about the whole thing.

 The Republican party is today con trolled body and soul by the Sugar Trust. the Steel Trust, the Lumber Trust and other similar organiza- tions, each and every one of which is in existence in violation of the antitrust laws of the country.
 Having no legal right to exist, each of these greedy monopolies is a criminal corporation, and if the Attorney-General of the United States would do his full duty they would be forced to dissolve.
 But if Roosevelt does indOrse the Taft administration it will be and ought to be his Waterloo, following in the due allotted time his triumph ant return for Elba." If Roosevelt openly indorses such standpatters as Taft, and Senator Lodge, of Massa- chusetts, it will mean that he de ceived the people as to his true sen, timent as completely as the prize fighter Jeffries deceived the sport, ing world as to his real physical condition.
