The Toronto Globe correspondent in ihe Yukon writes, March 23 : ‘*As the sap stirs in the maple down east, 0 th: thrill of the approaching “wash up”’ is stirring the Yukon minere with anticipatory nopes and visions, “The open weather ofthe past ten days promises an early beg’ nning of the ‘cli- matic stage of the miners’ year of : slabor, and Dawson is already showing the re- vivatory « ffecis. Those uopicturesqne dumps -stretch- ing like lines of breastworks sll up and down the creeks—whose slow, laborious growth we bave wached through the winter months, are piles of paramount importance now, for in them lies the yellowdust that means competency or millionairedom to the men who own them—men who have toiled with pick and shovel through the winter’s cli and storm. The heavy tools will be thrown aside within a few weeks, to be replaced by gold pan, sluce box and cradle, and the dump earth will reek too and fro, to and fre, until the gravel is gone, and only the yé: low dust lies gleaming. Pan by pan, or box by box, the process will be repeated, until each b'g dump ise divided into two parts—one, a bank of valuelers gravel earth, the ‘other a tiny yellowdust heap. And upon the size of this dvet heap will depend the miner’s fortune. Oh, but it will be a sight to see, on some of these richest claims! There will be golden places on the creeks, when wasb- up time comes. “Wash-ap time means alao royalty time. Already notices have beew posited on all the creeks, notifying the mioers of the coming, ecllectione, and waroving them against any attempt to evade the law ip this matter; and within a few days Iv- spector Belcher, of the N. W. M. P. wili begin a collecting tour of the creeks near est Dawson. “It bas been considered advisable that the collection be made thronghout by the police. who are generally popular, rather than by the minining inspector or the Government officiale. The miners are eomewhat irritable over the tax. which they consider altogether too much heavy, and the yathering in of the royalty not oaly requires collectors who ere res- ponsible but who are also firm and tacifui ‘A Dawesn citizen recently furnished to a western paper the following estimate of the output for thie season of creeks near Dawson: Eldorado, $2.500,000; Bonanza, $2,590,000 ; French Hill, $1, 600, 009 ; - Gold Hill, $l, 500 000 ; Biz Shekum, $l, 0v0 000; Little Skookum, $1,000,000 ; Dominion $4,000,000 ; Hunker and Quart z, $5,000,- 000; total 19,000,000. The estimate may or may sot be cor- rect, but the informant has certainly omit- ted more than one of the rich lscations— Sulphur Creek being left out entirely in the liet. In addition to these are the outer mining districts, euch as the upper Klon- dike, sod the Siewart River, which may certainly conat for something. Albe.t, | the latest reports from the latter district are not gooi, Thistle Creek having proven somewhat dsappointing. Scroggie Creek a tributary of Stewart, isat present bear- | ing the bes: repu‘ation. Nev diess gonds and fancy sacque and cap Cloib:s, Latest coloriregs— Weeks & ' Co.
