The matter was brought up b, the presentation of the report of the com- mittee on temperance, of which Samuel Dickie, candidate for President on the Prohibition ticket in 1892, is chairman. The | majority report arraigned the chief mag- istrate severely, but the conference finally | adopted the minority report, which ex-| cluded the paragraphs referring to the President, but which, however, called upon him to use his influence to secure the passage of the new anti-canteen law now pending before Congress. Previous to this the amusement question | was disposed of, but in rather an unex- pected way. The official vote by which the minority report was accepted, recom- mending no action, was announced as 333 ayes and 200 noes.

Samuel Dickie of Michigan presented the report of the committee on temper- | ance, which contained the following | ctrong arraignment of President McKinley | and Attorney Gene Griggs for their at- | titude on the anti-canteen law: | We are chagrined, humiliated and exasper- | ated by the pueril and absurd construction placed on the anti-canteen law by the Attorney General of the United States, and with all due Tespect to his exalted station, we record the | fact that weyare pained and’ disappointed at | | the course of the President in accepting as final A satisfactory an opinion without bind- I Such an abuse of power is nullifi- catl its most dapg us form. Upon the President, &s chief of ¢ rmy, rests the re- bility for the existence of the canteen loon, an evil which he has ample power to suppréss, a more dea foe to the soldiers than the bullet or the tropical heat Dr. J. E. Price of New York presented the minority report, which struck out all of the majority report in which President McKiniey was condemned. I ers Augustine and Hancock were sched- | uled to leave for St. Michael Friday and | Saturday of this week. The Klondike clean-up is reported to be over half finished and Fas been very satis- factory. While two or three thousand men will leave Dawson for Nome, almost as many will come out via Upper Yukon with gold dust they have been acquiring | during last winter. The rush to Nome, which 1e time was expected to reach at least 5000, has been greatly lessened by the stampede of ove: 500 men to Koy kuk. Up to Thursday the steamers F. K. Gustin, vbil and Ora had also reached Dawson rom White Horse. They were to start back as soon as they could load. Many Klondikers are preparing to float down the Yukon in noes and barges, trusting to luck to get across to Nome. ACCIDENTALLY ASPHYXIATED. Mormo,l Missionary Meets Death in Los Angeles.

SAN RAFAEL, May 25.—The politicians | of Mill Valley are preparing for the Fri- | day election of a School Trustee to take | the place of J. H. McInnes, whose term expires. A great rivalry exists between | the downtown and the so-called hill peo- | ple and both factions are-bard at work | making a house-to-house canvass of the | town in behalf of thelr respective candi- dates. The hill people are backing A. L. House and the downtowns are putling their faith in J. F. Tobin. The cau“e of the intense interest taken in the election is the disposition of the $10,000 raised by a, bond election held early in this month for the purpose of erecting a new school- house. ~ The location of the proposed school is furnishing the bone of conten- tion. Mill Valley will have the school, but the residents are asking themselves where will it be put, uptown or downtown. Collapse of a Structure.
