Without doubt the publishers of ’tlle Family Herald and Weekly Star .of Montreal, have this year excell- ‘ed themselves. The two pictures.

Circle City, the oldest mining camp in Alaska, promises a very large clean-up in the Spring. Cape Nome, the latest discovery, is on the Pacific Coast about 80 miles north from St. Michaels, gives good reports. A very novel thing is the beach rock- ing. For about 60 mine the beach is lined with rockers, men averaging 3.40 to $45 per day. A great stam- pede is expected in the Spring. Mr. Collyer left Tuesday and will Spend a few days in Guelph, Toxonto and other places before returning to Dawson which he expects to reach The paper itself is quite a respect- able production. equal to most and superior to many of our exchanges. The racy outSpoken style will com- mend it. to the class of readers for whom it is specially intended. Mr. Collyer is not a native of the Royal City as the Guelph papers would have the world believe. He was born in Durham in Mr. Philip Eva’s residence a little over 23 years ago. We give this infor- mation on the authority of the young man himself, attested by his father and his grandfather, and we think they ought to know. Again with reference to prices for job work we made some enquiry, and for one we had just finished Mr. Collyer said $25 would be a reason- able charge. We hope that some time we’ll get. $1.75 for it but the money isn’t yet in sight. But there is another side to the picture. While prices are high the cost of living is proportunately high. 3 small rad- ishes for a dollar, potatoes, 3 lbs for SLCO, two boiled eggs 3200 etc (am.

The principal creeks in the Yukon Territory now in operation are the Bonanza, Eldorado, Big Skookurn, Little Skookum, Bunker and Do- minion. These are all being operated with good results. On the American side, Jack Wade at forty mile dis- trict, is the foremost, the gold assaying 817.75 per oz. at the United wâ€"v v-urvvvw apout the beginning of iezu‘. By way of introduction, Mr. Coll- yer presented us with a couple of copies of “ The Gleaner,” an eight column four page paper published in Dawson every week and sold at twenty-five cents, or “ two bits ” a CODY. The apparently exorbitant price led us to enquire about rates for advertising of which the Gleaner enjoys a good patronage, some four- teen or fifteen columns being devoted to that purpose. We were not a little surprised to hear that the charge there is $100 for 5 inch double column Space, 5 inch double column for four insertions and half inch professional cards are $10.00 a month. Though started only a few months ago, the paper has over 3000 of a circulation in the City of Dawson. which we were also surprised to learn has a population of about 20000 souls. In addition to this the weekly circulation on Bonanza Creek is 700 pay-in advance subscribers at $1.00 each per month. The publishers of the “ Gleaner ” also control the mail service along the creeks and deliver letters to the miners at 2.30 each. Mr. Coliyer left Dawson Sept. 12th and in 22 days reached the city of Guelph. Having . made four trips from Vancouver to Dawson City. Mr. Collyer thinks nothing of the journey.

He is now jaint owner and circulation Manager of the “Sunday Gleaner,” published in Dawson City, Yukon Territory. His Parental home is in Guelph, and his grandparents, Mr and Mrs. Philip Eva live here.
