Near The Dalles, Friday, August 13th' to Mr. and Mrs. Robert Williams, a iaugnter. - Stewart and Jones ' Admit Prosperity Is Here. . Nbw York, Aug. 12. The Times to day publishes the following r . .f s . Senator Stewart ia one of the' latest converts to commercial optimism. He is engaged in a . vigorous '. compaign in Wall street, and he said yesterday that he bad heard so much about better times that he had determined to gather iu part of the prosperity which is now not only rampant in the street, but outside, When asked what bad , brought about the change in his views, he said There is no room for pessimism in this country, no one can be a bear in the face of the wheat famine in Argentine, Russia, Hungary and India. In view of these conditions abroad I should not be surprised to see silver sell for 25 cents and wheat as high as a dollar. ' , There is nothing in talking silver at the present time, and my advice to my friends in the West is to fall in line with the forces of prosperity and progress and receive their due share of the reward "Are the people in the West alive to this new situation?" "The people in the West," be replied, "are wide awake. They know a good thing when they see it. Most of them are hanging on to their cereals with con fidence born of hope and actual know ledge of what is going on around them. With their immense crops they wilt be able not only to ' liquidate '. their indebtedness to the money sharks of the East, but will inaugurate a buying movement that will surprise the people in this part of the country. I think that by the late fall the truth of what I said and reiterated during the campaign will be generally recognized, and this is that there can be no general prosperity in a country that is not born and sustained iu the West." - ' Advertised Letters.

No man ever paid a higher compli ment to the country press than White law Reid. At a dinner given the mem bers of the press in New York some time ago, Mr. Reid waa called upon to reply to the toast "An Independent Press," and he said the following: "There ia no such thing in America as 'an independent nrMR. nnlpaa it rnt in tbe country towns.

(4) Mo Aid for Stranded Miners. San Francisco, Aug. 12. Ru.-nora have recently been spread in thia city that tbe Alaska Commercial Company baa aent messages to their agents and commanders of vessels at St. Michaels instructing them to brine stranded miners and prospectors who they may find at St. Michaels or at the mouth '. of tue Yukbn back to civilization as an act of charity. The Alaska Commercial people deny tbe truth of these rumors. and say that tbey have no intention of wasting any philanthropy upon fool hardy adventurers. It is reported from Juneau that the blockade at Dyea and Skaguay ia daily growing woree. At the two points there are now not less than 1000 men unable to go over the summit.

Tbe'steam er Rosalie arrived this morning from Dyea, and irom the ; statements of the passengers it seems probable that a large number of people who etarted for the Yukon will return to Seattle without having gone further than Dyea or Ska gua. ; It ia reported on good authority that on t fit s are being sold for almost nothine and disgusted Klondikera are arranging to come home as fast aa pos sible. Several were passengers on. tbe ill-fated Mexico and some 20 or 30 men have returned to Juneau. Between 2500 and 3000 miners are now encamped at Dyea; , Tbey have organ ized to keep down packing rates, and are doing everything possible to get over the pass. A rate of 20 cents per pound from Dyea to the bead of Lake Bennett baa been decided on by the miners' or ganization and no one is allowed to pay more. . This step waa made necessary owing to the fact that men with money were on the ground and offering as high as 30 cents per pound in some . casea get goods across. The poor man was left behind and something bad to be done, Ae ia usual in eacti casea au organiza tion was effected, it is said, and' parties were appointed to see that the rate for packing was kept down.' ' F. B. Porter, of New York - city, : who baa been in Alaska for months on ' min ing business, came down on the Rosalie, He sa!d : ' 'V, About 3000 people are encamped at Dyea. Tbey are living in tents waiting for a chance to get their goods to Lake Bennett. ' Many have already sold their outfits and are arranging to come back Skaguay trail ia not open beyond tbe summit. Some time ago a man reported that the trail waa open, and many of those going into the Klondike landed there. Juneau men who . attempted to take a small outfit over this trail were compelled to turn back. -They returned to Juneau, enlarged their outfits and will go in over tne Uvea trail, Men are needed to pack on these trails, . not horses. ' Horses get along all right until tbey reach the summit, then a man has to pack bis own outfit Jor eell it. t There are 150 Indians at Dyea who are getting 20 cents per pound." Captain Robertson, of the Rosalie, was seen thia morning. He said : We made a quick trip up in Z daya, Oar passengers were landed at tbe dock at Skaguay. I did not go ashore to in vest i gate the condition of the miners al ready there, so can give little informa tion on that score. : There waa consider able confusion along the trail, . and i great many of tbe miners are not bay ing very much success in getting their stuff in. They have pitched their tents and piled np their outfits waiting for packers, and for the trail to be fixed up, I was informed that men were at work widening tbe trails, and that they would pood be in a passable condition. The first pack train was expected back from the lake the evening we left. They ex pect to make the trip in two days. !, . SKAGUAY ROUTE IS OFJtN. I Bat In Poor tbe Trail , Is Reported Condition. Dyea, Alaska, Aug 4 Cvia Seattle, Aug. 11.) The British steamers Islander and Gees have arrived with about 500 proB pectors, which increases the number on the Dyea and Skaguay . trails to fully 1500. ; Late reports have come in to tbe effect that the Skaguay route ia open to the lakes, and that it ia about forty-five miles long. It ia of a zig-zag course over the mountains and the road is very soft. There are ' some 200 "or 300 head of horses on the trail, and they will soon tramp the road into a deplorable condi tion. The probability of one man in ten reaching the Klondike is remote. - Old Alaska prospectors, some of whom have wintered in the Yukon and know what to expect are becoming frightened and are turning back. Not that tbey fear the hardships, but that they are apprehensive of a famine on account of so many men rushing headlong to the mines without enough provisions to last mem twa montns. Tbe best evidence that tnose upon the ground regard tbe situation with more or less alarm is tbe fact that many are paying 20 cents a pound to have freight packed across Dyea pass. This is an in crease of 3 cents per pound since the sailing ot the AI-Ki, at which time 16 and 17 cents were charged. ,' Twenty cents is the regular rate over, the Dyea or Cbilkoot pass route. Thia 'increase and exorbitant charge is -due to a scar city, of horses Without pack animals of some description it(appears to be next to Impossible at thle season to get freight and outfits across the divide.
