Huntington Gleaner, (Liberal): The reports thet come from Ottawa of leases for dredging for gold in the North West and the Yukon rivers are suggestive of favoritism.

The supposition is that in the sands of these streame lie much gold which bas been waehed down from the surrounding h-lls Jand can be recovere. 1 by dredging and washing. Mr. Mercier ‘knows nothing, pereonally , about these rivers, and has merely got the lease with the intention of selling out to those who will do the expecting thereby to realize a fortune. \vother favorite who has got a jes-e is Chevalier Drolet, who has bee. g sen 30 miles of the North Saskatchewan at 86a mile veyipg away of the public ite value has been individuals at condemned.
