In the Eastern states when it be. comes necessary to transport a large sum of money from one point in an- other. 1t is escorted through the streets from the bank to tho railway station by men armed with repeating rifles. sitting upon the chests in which the money Is securely locked.
 These same men board the express car and sit upon the same chests with their rifles across their knees until the train arrives at the destination to which the treasure chests have been consigned These armed guards still follow their treasure. and never take their eyes of the boxes until they are again locked behind the burglar proof doors of another bank
 How different is that from the sys- tem in Alaska.
 There the gold is melted into bricks by the banks in the financial centers of the mining camps. These bricks are placed in rough wooden boxes. The boxes are packed in the purser's room upon the arrival of steamer m tho Yukon. From there they are trans mitted to baggage car on the railway .at whitehorse. At Skagway they arc again transferred to a purser's room and in Seattle they are loaded upon an express wagon to be transferred to the assay office
 During most of the journe from the gold fields of the Yukon to the assav office in Seattle they have had thc casual attention of one man as their guard. This man may or may not have a revolver in his pocket. and he must eat and sleep occasionally. During those times the gold is left almost er- tircly without a guardian
 II ls a strange thing that more of it has not been stolen. and as we say. |, speaks volumes for the general honor Of the people who come into contact with the great quantity Of this preci ous metal that less than one thou eandth part of tho shipemut of gold from Alaska to Seattle have been tam pered with.-Ex.

Squirrel IS commencing to develop the ear marks Of camp. but it will take many more weeks. and perhaps months 10 bring out these markings SD they can b. recognized by mining men who have to delve in the earth for the yellow metal
 We are hoping that it will turn out to be a lively and producing camp for several reasons. First to repay those who have staked their money and time as well as devoting lots of hard labor in trying to develop paying mines the benefit Nome will derive from the camp. for this will be the ort- fitting point for the miners in the Squirrel river country

 Nome is fortunate in having a spec iaiist for the eye. in doctor Neuman for accidents such as happened to Edw Burns are liable to take place from time to time in mining camp, and when the hard rock mining gets in full swing. accidents from pre- mature ex- plosion of dynamite can be expected
 The first report sent out was to the effect that Burns would be blind for life. but later reports state that pr Neuman believes he can save the un- fortunate the sight of the one eve left We trust this Is true for Burncs has indeed suffered enough from the cx- plosion and with the loss of one eye he has had more misfortune than many can suffer and live.

Indebtedness when the bonds become
due. This will be dOae without the
issue Of refunding bonds As has been
necessary In the past. This ls due to
the fact that before the psssaye Of the
1907 act no effort had been made to

1t was q recurging issue Of "refunding

An old statute in relation to the in-

the books prior to the passage Of the
1907 act, but because Of the lack Of
'ready money" over and above what
the Legislatures could spend. no state

During the term Of Mr.. Rawlins as

statute and raked. together $40, 900 for
