TOR PRISON AND ASYLUMASSAY OFFICE TOR DAWSON
Governor Ross and Merchants All Working to That End
 Believe That Government Will Grant Request

He is working strenuously to have the Dombinon assay office now at Vancouver moved to Dawson, and pnb- licly says that he is working toward that end
 His opinions are that Dawson will, in the near future, be favored by such a move on the part of the government
 He does not believe that it should be compulsory upon owners of dust to sell their dust m Dawson. It can be SO arranged that the people will have the privilege of selling their dust either to thc banks or any other pri- vatc concerns. In other words. let it be free trade. Then the people will feel they are not restricted and if the assay at one place does not satisfy them they can go elsewhere.

Open Market fer Roupdlap Bale.

More roupdlap bales are being
used in Southern mills this season
than ever before. Tho Massa-
chusetts Mills at Lindale, GA,
and the Langley Manufacturing
Co. and the Graniteville Manu-
featuring Co. at Augusta, Ga. :,
have spun large quantities of cot
ton baled by this process with
entire satisfaction. These bales
would be used more largely in the
South put for the fact that they
can he sold more preitahly to
foreign spinnerS, who will take
every ronndlap bale made. In
order te demonstrate the roundlap
bale's advantages, the American
Cotton Go. is disposed, ON even
terms, to- give American spiDners
the preference. Whether sold ut
home or abroad, every bale that
leaves roundlap press has wide
and steady market at top prices.
While the American Cott, Co.
Is always ready to buy roundlap
bales, it does not require that q
single bale he sold to it's cotton
department, licenses and other
owners of ronndlap bales being
free to sell in the open market to
the buyer who will pay the rmost
money. So far from discourage
ing, the company welcomes the
competition of other buyers for
roundlap bales. The farmer who
hauls his seed GOTTEN to a round
lap gin can sell 1t on the spot at
the highest market price, or he
can hold it with the assurance
that his roundIap bales will al
ways bring their full value. The

advances on .'held' roundlap
