I was through the goldcmining boom in the Klondike. It has wan- ed some but there is likely enough gold there yet to keep the country alive for 10 years longer. After that it is a. question whether Dawson City will not go out o! existence. The finds were very nch in places. I knew a. case in which one pan of soil yielded nearly $8000 worth ol’ gold. I have myself scooped the pan into the side of a creek’s bank and wash- ed $16 worth of gold out of one kan- ful. ‘It was in dust and nuggets. Some of the latter were as big as a good-sized ink pot. Wit. Milne was piloted about town by Mr. Geo. Jordan whom he knew when both lived in Vancouver. ”Did he ever fine you?" one gentle- man said to urnlilne who had said that. Mr. Jordan was city judge there. "xYee, once." replied the Water-nor. and the erstwhile judge explnine'd that he had on one oomlion mulctod Hr. Milne for riding his bicycle on the aidewdk. “When I went to Vancouver 14 years ago." said Ir. Kilns, it. was just beginning to grow. Why there I took in several hundred tons of? store goods when I went in 1898.! We took them over the pass on pack‘ mules and at the river made scows and floated them down to Dawson 600 miles aWay. I made money. I‘ never paid any attention to the cost of the goods ;~ in fact I never yet have totalled up my invoices. It was not a question of what was a ’fair profit, but of how much you Icould get for an article. All sorts of eata'bles are taken up there in cans. Milk and cream brought $1 a can. potatoes 35 cents a pound and often trozen solid at that. Hay “0‘31", $700 a, ton.
