be finished within tne next few days, and they will account for many more stampeders during the next week or two.
 There does not seem to be much doubt that midsummer will see from seven to eight thousand peo- pie congregated i'll the new camp Late reports placed the number of people in the camp already at ?, 500. Over 1000 are said to be going in from Rome; a similar number will probably go in by way of Dawson; I,5Oo from Fairbanks and Cinema. and about 500 from other Panama and Yukon points including Gib- bon. Seward, Valdez and Cordova will also contribute their quota, so it will only need about I,5oo from the outside to make up the estimate The amount of supplies necessary to feed this crowd will be enormous and there is more likely to be short age than surplus Of provisions, etc Ill the early stages of the camp.
 How the Iditarod will turn out none can say at present In a very large number of cases stam- peders are banking OH something being found over i'll the kusko- kWim country.
 In any case the stampede has given Alaska considerable advertis- ing at moment it most needed il, and the influx of capital and labor which is bound to result will have a favorable effect on local indus tries in the future.

THE DEMOCRATIC
 CONVENTION

The Democratic convention was held at Juneau during the week, when it was decided that the best interests of the party would be served by postponing the nomination of a candidate for delegate to congress.
 It was thought that the mat ter was of such importance that nasty action on the part of the convention was unwiSe,and a com mittee Was formed consisting of John Roman, Martin Harrais, A. J. Daily, R. W. Jennings and J. \. Ostrander, to confer on the matter and to select a suitable candidate.
 Although statements to the contrary have been made in To- cal prints nothing is yet known as to whom the candidate will be.

The editor of the News Miner hints at a fusion of the parties. Such fusion could only result by the Republicans coming into the fold and supporting the Demo cratic candidate.
 The Democrats will not, can not, lend their support to a rep reSentative of any other party whatever, and it would be as well if the Republicans realized this at once. The only candi- date that will be acceptable to the Democratic party in Alaska is a man who is known to be a staunch supporter of the princi- pies of Democracy.
 The presence of Nichols at the convention is ineXplicable. Mich ols was sent down to the coast to watch over the interests of a Fairbanks Republican who is af- ter the delegateship, and he had no right in a Democratic con vention at all

prove our point about the duplicity of human nature. This man was a stanpeder, and he didn't want his stampeding interfered with by importunate creditors. So he went around a few minutes before his boat was scheduled to leave, and asked that his accounts be made out. This took his trusting credit ors of their guard. and he, teo, got away.
 So 1t is with many who have gone. And it is not likely that they will return, whatever the camp may prove to be. So those who have been bitten might as well transfer the amounts to the profit and loss account. The debtors are gone, and may as well be forgotten.
