THE new gold discoveries in Alaska |
are the present sensation of the world, |
The find of gold is said to exceed any |
thing in the history of the world. It |
is a hardship to get there, but when
there any one can gather up a fortune
in gold dust. Klondike, just across
the American line, is the richest fleld
for the precious metal : but on the
American side gold is found in all the
streams up the Yukon river,
In San Francisco, Portland snd Be.
attle the Alaskan gold fever runs high,
and in all the cities this side the Rock-
les there are persons ready to start for
the new gold field. The rush will be
80 great that starvation may overtake |
many as it Is difficult to transport pro-
visions into that desolate region. The
freight charges are 10 cents per pound,
Prices of food are enormously high,
From Juneeu, overland, to Klondike
is 600 miles. By steamer up the Yu.
kon river, is 1800 miles.
Src i——— — —————s
No difMeulties or dangers, remsrkg
the Ledger, have ever deterred men
from going where gold was to be
found, and the exciting news from the
Klondyke region in British €olumbia
has started a rush in that direction
which bas not been equalled since the
breaking out of the California gold fe-
ver in 1849. It is certain that all of
the adventurers will meet with hard.
ships, or the mere difficulties of the
way are severe, but many of them
(who, in their eagerness fo be among
the first, rush away without sufficient
preparations, will go at the price of
their lives. Bhould they succeed in
reaching the gold field they will find
themselves fu a region where there 1s
no food save what is imported, where
the supply is insufMicient for the de-
mand, and where, during the long,
can reach them.
all the claims in the gold district have
already been taken up; but this will
not stop the rush, for it will not be be-
Heved, and there is too much reason to
be succeeded,
