ARGUMENT FINISHED. FINAL
 BRIEF IN FOUR DAYS.
Decision Next We(k
Voluninous Evidence, Many Great ly Interested, Distinguished
 Counsel.

All argument in the case of the Chittyna Exploration Co. vs The Alaska Copper Co. ct al, was closed on Wednesday afternoon and the case submitted to the court. but no decision has vet been rendered, the lawyers having five days to file their briefs.
 The case involves title to certain copper properties in the Chittvna valley, known as the Bonanza claims.
 The interests of majority of the locators were sold to the Alaska Copper Co. and suit to establish d trust was entered by plaintiff. The case came up at the last ses. sion of court and wa, referred to a commission to take testimony. The ease resulted in three suits. tine original and two adverse, to which defendant filed answer.
 Plaintiff then moved for iudg- ment on pleadings. which was de- nied. Motion was then entered on the part of the defendants for an order staying the proceedings in the two adverse suits until the de- termination of the original suit, which was granted. The next move in the case was an applica- ton on the part of the plaintiff for an order to open the case, which was closed on July 10th last, in order to introduce additional testi- mony. The application was de- nled and argument was then heard on the case as submitted on July 10th.
 The evidence in the case is quite voluminouS, taking up over 250O type written pages.

The Seal Catch.

The department of commerce and labor, which has had jurisdic- ton of the fur seal industry since July 1, of the current year, has received a telegram from special agent Lembkey, the representative of the department on the islands, who has arrived in San Francisco, announcing that the lessees of the Pribilofs have taken 19,292 skins during the current scaling season. In addition to these, S2 skins taken last year will also be shipped by the lessees, making a total 19,374, a falling off of about 5000 skins, as compared with the past three years, during which the catch has been as follows: 1902, 22.3O3 skins; 1901, 22,672; 1900, 22,470, As will be seen, this years catch is the small est recorded since 1899, when the total was 18,S12. The reduction as compared with last years catch, is attributed to the fact that during the past two seasons a considerable number of two-year odds were talk en, which would have the effect Oi reducing the number of three-y year olds available for this years catch.

The Ranta Case Progressing.

On Tuesday morning the court opened early as usual and after some preliminary sparring on the part of the lawyers engaged in the Bonanza case. the work of select ing jury to sit in the trial of the United States vs Isaac Banta. who was indicted by the last Grand Jury, charged with murder in the second degree, was entered into and after exhausting d special venire, consisting of twenty men. fifteen other names were gone through with before they finally settled on twelve jurors. The defense exercised their right to the full extent by re- lecting ten men on peremptorv challenge and the prosecution hay ing the right to reject five, only re- jected four. It was found rather difficult to select jury owing to the fact that all parties were we'll known and tine case was so thor oughly spoken of at the time of happening, most people in town had formed very strong opinion, which it was quite evident could not readily be shaken, thus mak- ing them ineligible for the office. It took the greater part of the day before the following men were fin ally selected to sit on the case: Jesse kobbin, W. H. Crary. E. k. Craig, C. L. Jones, F. J. Slack, s. J. Paxson, Harry V. Hobin, $. w. Dutton, k. R. King. $. D. Means, Jas. McCabe, J. P. Roberts.
 The jury was then sworn in and handed over to the care of two bai- iiffs who were ordered by the court to not lose sight of the jury till the termination of the trial.
 The copper case occupied all the time of the court on Wednesday and the jurors were kept in q room in the hotel, being brought out only for meals.
 This morning the trial proper be- gan with District Attorney N. V. Harlan for the prosecution and Goodell X Edwards and Leedy & Kelsey for the defense. Witnesses for the prosecution were being called and heard as We go to press. As the defense will plead insanity, a medical commission was appoin- ted to examine into the mental con- diIion of the accused.

.TAhANA INTEREST REvIVING, AS A RESULT OF
 CAREFUL PROSPECTING. [lpe(ted to Rival Home
Considerable Winter Travel to Fairbanks is Expected to
 Go Through Valdez

+ We are constantly Tn receipt of information from the Panama dis trict and from some of those who have been there that the country Is proving itself to be fully up to tine expectation of the men who went in there and did what pros pecting that was possible in the first season, notwithstanding the black eye that was given to the place ny a gang of tenderfeet, who rush into a country expecting to find gold lying on the surface.
 In letter just received dated at Chenoa, on Sep. 4th., the writer makes the following statements:
 This is going to be one of the best placer camps in all Alaska. There are six good paying creeks so far discovered. The pays,reak is wide and very uniform. It will take twenty-five years 10 work out what is salready in sight. with the mOs: modern way oi operating and the country is in its infancy. On discovery on Cherry creek ] have seen twenty-four hundred dollars washed out of l940 eight-pan buckets of gravel. ~
 On No. 4 above on Chatham creek l saw bank of gravel over three feet deep average twenty-two cents to the pan. It is worked by Val dez man named Bob Fleming, who was one of Fish's mail carriers. On Fairbank creek there is pay streak eight feet deep that runs on a uniform average of seven and one half cents to the pan. This occurs for d distance of six miles.
 The ground on Fairbanks runs from twenty-cight to thirty-five feet deep. About ten feet of the top is muck and the balance is fine gravel. Chatham, Clary and Pe- dro creeks are not so deep, run ming from ten to eighteen inches. Goldstream is a good pay creek in fact they are finding gold in paying quantities on most of the tributaries and on a great many benches of the above named creeks. Many of the prospectors were without money and when pay was discovered they made rockers and went to work and secured enough to lay in winters food supply. They can all beat wages with q rocker.
 There is plenty of fuel, but sluice timber will have to be hauled from either Chenoa or Fairbanks, where there are four saw mills.
 There was nothing struck here till the middle of July. but it is an assured fact now that this will be a camp, second not even to Nome, within two years. This is not hear say but personal observation. think Valdez will profit from this camp as there will be quite a lot of winter travel and Valdez is the nearest point to or from the coast in winter.
 The population at present is about 62O, but they are continually coming from Circle, Rampant and the river camps"

On Tuesday last call was is- sued for mass meeting, which was held that evening, Judge Good ell presiding. Owing to the late session of court the meeting was not well attended. The object was to ask the cooperation of the war department in keeping the trail open all winter between here and Copper Center. A committee was ppointed to confer with the officer in charge at the post.

It may not be generally known that the Standard. oil company shipped to the orient last year l6S,- 0OO,000 gallons of oil, of a value of S36, 100000. There is every re;,- son why this oil should be produc- ed and shipped from Alaska. The cheapness of production and trans rOrtation as well as superior quail ity of oil, will all favor Alaska when the oil fields are developed as they will be shortly.

Capt. Fillmore Is Tn from Seldovia to talk it over with the court. Jno. Yakaloff expects to tell how it did not happen.
 MT. O. B. Millett, the discoverer of Chechaco hill at Dawson, passed through on the Bertha from the westward. MT. Millett has been prospecting all summer in the Ili- anna and Lake Clark country. No results.
 H. D. Reynolds, presid ent, and Blamey Stevens, engineer, of the Reynolds-Alaska Development Co.,, returned to Valdez from the west ward on the Bertha. They have finished a seasons active work in examining and purchasing mining and oil properties.
 A new strike is reported on Afog- nak island near Afognak village. Quartz stringers were discovered on the beach, which, upon being prospected, proved to run into a we'll defined lead about three feet wide. The ore assays s2l gold and about 8 in silver.
 The royal Englishmen have con- tracted the oil fever, and have se- cured some sixteen thousand acres on the Alaskan peninsula. In this they have evinced good sense as we'll as sound bushes judgment. Oil is to be the great factor in the early development of the southern Alaska coast.
 Dr. E. Maurer, who has been making a personal investigation of the oil fields of Alaska was Bertha passenger. Dr. Maurer was enthu- siastic over the outlook, and has invested heavily in oil lands, own- ing or controlling upward of 30.OOO acres. It is his intention to send up drills this winter and begin ac- tive operations at the opening of next season.
 Guy Banta has returned from Latouche, where he has been en- gagged in tracing the peregrinations of the Bonanza lead. This wonder. full vein has been twisted and con- torted by mine owners and experts until there now remains no avail able spot on Latouche not covered by it-and always in a direct line,

 Mr. Stone, natura: list, and col lector for the New York Museum oI Natural History, returned East on the Berth. He killed about forty large animals, comprising complete families of bear, moose, caribou and mountain sheep. Tine bones as we'll as skins were brought out to be mounted in groupes for the New York Museum. Alaskans visiting New York would do we'll to visit this museum, as it contains by far the finest collection of Alaskan specimens and curios in the world. A great deat of attention has been given Alaska, this having been MT. Stones third expedition, while other representatives have secured the country for exhibits.

MAKES RECOMMENDATION.
Special Water Committee Does Would
Investigate Well System.

! . Is o &
The special water committee
made a final report to the city
council Monday night, embodying
recommendations with reference to
a water supply. The report re
turned the latest proposition of the
Corvallis Water Company to the
council without recommendation.
It recommended that well water
system be investigated and
that if mountain water system
should be found impossible that
well system, if found desirable,
should be provided either by pri-
vate or city ownership. The recon-
mendations in the report are as
follows:
We recommend that until such
time as the city shall be able to Sc
cure more ample and suitable
supply of water, that a good and
proper contract be made with the
present water company from year
to year for furnishing water for city
and other purposes at reasonable
rates
And we would further recon.
mend that the city proceed to in
vestigate the quality of the water
to be obtained from system of
wells located near the city. And
if good pure soft water can be OBJ
tanned in this way, and it is found
impossible to secure a mountain
wafer system at reasonable cost,
the city then to proceed to obtain
water supply from such source,
either through private company or
city ownership"
The signers to the report are,
Lee Henkle. F. P Sheasgreen,
w. E. Yates and E. Allen.
The report, on motion Of
Coun Gilman Allen, was laid on the
table for one week. so that it could
be taken up for consideration by
the new council next Monday
night.

THE GERMANS CAME.
And Went-What They Saw-Princes
and Professors.

1 y. =
The Germans from Germany did
the Agricul ural College yesterday.
They spent four hours there, and
in briet time saw all. They had
eyes for everything that pertained
| to agriculture~. A machine for
spreading compost enlisted their
closest attention. After it had been
put through series of evolutions,
some of the party were SO interest
ed that they asked for repetition
of the performance. They
took notes of the name of the max
er, the cost ofthe machine, meas
ured it, viewed it from all sides,
and finally took photographs of it..
They saw many other machines
and appliances that they paid
marked attention to and took notes
about. In college chapel they
heard German class sing, "Tne
Watch on the Rhine" in the Ger
man langua ge. with Miss Cronise
in the solo, It pleased them 50
that several Of the party joined
heartily in the chorus. After the
song WAS concluded, one of the
party thanked the sit gers for the
number aud for the true German
style in which it was rendered. 1t
was, au all around pretty incident.
Had Hoch der Kaiser witnessed it,
he would have been delighted
The visitors looked strong and
long at a battalion drill by the
cadets. It happened on the cam
pus, far to the front. College fac
u1ty and students and townspeople
occupied vantage points on the
hill. The Germans were in the
foreground. The band played
near. The cadets eAoluted with
vigor and accuracy and were much
admired.
After the drill, the visitors sup
ped in Agricultural Hall, The
luncheon was served in the lecture
room by the college people. The
place and the tables were prettiiy
decorated. and the function was
most successful. The entertained
were demonstrative in their appre-
pretion of the banqnet, singing
several German songs for the bene-
fit of their entertainers after the
luncheon was over.
At one O. clock the members of the |
party assembled at their train They
were not alone. Many townspeole
were on hand to catch a glimpse at
a real live prince, a baron, or two
or three counts OF professors with
queer names. A committee from
the local Lewis and Clark auxiliary
was also there. The members car
ried flowers, illustrated pamphlets
of Benton County and Lewis and
Clark leaflets which were bestowed !
on the visitors. The flowers de-
lighted them and the pamphlets
in particular interested them. They
asked for more, but the ladies had
only a few and could not present
one all round. The. scene at the
station was Ifelicitous in ~the ex-1
treme. The local people unques-
tionably captured the good will
of the sight seeing Europeans. As
the train pulled out the latter cheer.

threw up the windows, and app1au-

the train as it steamed down the
track was lusty and kindly Ger

Seed Corn.

1t is impossible to get a good stand
from planting poor seed and equally
impossible to get a good crop from a
poor stand Thus seed Of high ger
minating power Is OF the first impor-
lance. but this alone is not enough.
Back of Il there must be uniformity or
color type, quality and an inbred pre-
potency to large yields. These and 9th
er desirable qualities must be firmly
established in the variety. The variety
must be one which Is adapted to condi-
lions obtaining in the locality in which
it is to be grown. Otherwise 1t will
not do its best the first year and per-
haps not for several years. There Is
not much danger in moving corn east
or west, keeping 1t in about the same
latitude, but risky to move far north
or south.
Large, plump seed Of fine appearance
is always desirable, but reliability as a
grower and crop producer and adapta-
bility to the environment are even
more so, as | know from experience
