THK OLD Gl'AKD
Dawson News: With the sailing
of the lost boat, look about and
see the old guard. Walk 'ho streets
today and see face to tace those
who have choseu to blaze out the
trail through another Yukou winter.
Here are the stayers—the people
who via. Those who keep the si
lent and eternal watches are those
who most count iu fortune building,
home building, and empire building.
"Let bright sun shine, or dark
cloud lower.
The man who works is master of
the hour."
The man who thinks, plans and
ac's has uo lonesome interval, ice
is master of his destiny and ofteu
that of others. A vacation is a
mighty good thing, but the maa who
eternally "vacates" is negligible in
any land. Yukou **auts not the
Idler any rnoro thau it wants the
misfit, it Ss not to say that the
sourdoughs who sail away to have a
dav of rest are unworthy, but they
who reinvest their summer's earn
ings and put iu the long wiuters
prospecting aud otherwise develop
ing the country the year round
must be congratulated. But for
those who stay the merchant would
have uo need of the big stocks for
winter, and the laud no promise
of permanency. And, after ail,
those who stay have the multiplied
chauce, and this winter Yukou's
prospttts are more promising than
any winter in years. Mayo, Itude,
SLxtymile, and other realms hold ou
the premise of b'g things. Will they
be realized? It depends on the old
guard.
