THEN AND NOW.
Leaving h?r< on the l>olphin. the
Ha?aos and Fort Seward mail is
a> w oa ?ts way to Juneau to be
uau^forrvd *o a north bound boat
w?u lauded lla.ut-s sometime iu
Ui>. future.
The reasons for this doiay are ob
\ oua. I'ii - IVti ;>oa, like every otbe
?: has to be overhauled and re
p.- led < \ crj ? oitea, &ad the most
coavenieut tiai* -> the present. The
i \ ..v r>on v axrics the mail tor accom
modation ;cud ?aeu repairs are nec
tioary ^e s not la duty bound tc
*tA> nor .> slu obliged to secure a
feuiwUmte during aor mouth's retir*.
uieuL, tiu the consequence is that
..uisg that period, Haines and viciai
ij. ?;l..ou UKUi sv; ? ice to SkA^vvay
ejeept throu -a rouud-a-bout routes.
?I the iuu contract wore awarded
.0 some outside party, the party hav
ing the contra*, would be obliged to
lu ash a boat to carry the mail dur
ing such Luk as the regaiar boat is
'? u oil tor repairs.
The idea > taking three or (our
days to deliver the mail twenty
Uu.et. is #ivx than the ma:l ser
vice of the stage coat h days in the
early "tiitios," but for that matter ?
>v> s everything eis<> relating to the
Ktdt-ral govmucvnt on a par with
Un?: >tage ia our national develop
t rat.
One hund.ed years ago fifty miles
iit 24 hours ?i> considered very fast
i me, *iiU noihini more was expected
but jn its eu_.r. i!u-u age, the ac
?hen a si?eeJ ol a lu.le in thirty sc<*
i>Ou> has !x-eu attained, twenty mik-s
:n tour days seems ridiculously slow.
I'be Peterson carrying mail hws
iiU a groa a>. tommodauon U> t-.e
people of Stis?aj and Haines, and
one which is truly appr-.-ciated by Uie
rodents oi both towns* tut the War
iHiAarunent cat not be txpected to
pay for ano-Sei boat to take her
lt?oe uaile she is gone, and the Pos
tal LKpartmeut is very economical'
in all its ma i contracts ? in Alaska.
i nt vv. .traits k.^eu Uie Urgtr boa a
le^ure them u> call at Haiiu i,
northbound, ' ' possible, but they mus
call one way. thus mail coming north
cc. the Canadian boats, which do not
stop at Haints, must necessarily be
tarried from I ere u> Haines on a
<>u.all boat., or be carried around by
the way of Ju-ieau.
As the Peterson will be in Juneau
for the next three weeks and the
ra*U ser\ ice v iU be interrupted dur
i g that time, it might be possible
to show to 'he postal inspectors who
are here at tae present the true con
dition of affair* which would result
tn a benefir *o the people of both
S^kagway and Haines.
MORE VH AN A MILLION.
the Idltarod district added $1,002
5i0.64 to the total gold yield of Al
aska last yea.-, according to the re
turns of the United States Assay Of
? i* at t'ae t-eginning of the year,
and, therefore, the figures mar be
t>kon as authoritative. The produc
tion this year should be several
tinK? that amount, and the cost of
operating the mines should be re
auced considerably, because transpor
tat'oa facilities. promise to be bet
ter, and general supplies cheaper.

The apparent failure ol the Kusko

a continuous pay-sUvak is cause (or
