"Alaska is no exception. I honestly believe that the quantity
of gold or its equivalent in value taken into Alaska by the
seekers of fortune, by far exceeds the value of the quantity
taken out. The famous precept
of Horace Greely, 'GO WEST
YOUNG MAN, and grow up
with the country,' is no longer a
safe one for a young man to follow, who can look forward to a
fair degree of success in the
middle or eastern states."
"The fallacy of this precept
should, be placarded along all
the roads leading to the west,
that the large number of young
men who go out with high hopes
arid bulging pocketbooks but
come back with depressed spirits and purses, might be diminished.''

Several years ago, Mrs. Boser
began to lose her customary
rugged health in a series of
vague symptoms, which were
the forerunners of Diabetes.
With her system already weakened by this chronic disease, the
fatal result of which was only a
question of time, the advent of
pneumonia with its high mortality, even among the young
and middle-aged, at once put
her beyond the bounds of human aid.
The Journal joins her many
sorrowing friends and relatives
in the sincere wish that her useful life might have been prolonged by man}7 peaceful years.

Portuguese Legion of Honor.
One of the first acts of the new Per-
tugurse governmont on coming Into
power was to suppress tho Order of
Christ of Portugal, the red ribbon of
which was so much esteemed. Then a
difficulty arose as to how they were to
reward their revolutionary friends.
Numbers were clamoring for recognition. Then the council met In solemn
conclave, and after a long dlscusslo
It was decided to create a Portugues
Legion of Honor, and naturally they
decided that the ribbon should bo
purple. The reason for the suppression of Portugal's famous honor Is
stated by a Paris contemporary to
have been due to a desire to placate
'he anti-clericals.
