THE wall that arises from the mayor
of the city because he was not specially
invited to meet the governor on his re-
cent visit to Pullman is most undigni-
fed and uncalled for. Gov. Mcbride
was here as a politician, and the arrange
ments for the meeting were made by
those in sympathy with his political
ideas, and Mr.. Staley democrat, need
feel no slight that he was not consulted
in the matter. The governor was not
here as the chief executive OF the state
his mission being a purely political one
and the mayors howl is as silly as it il
childish.

A RICH
STRIKE
Made on No. 6 Above,
Dry Creek.
So, 81 and SIS PANS
At a Depth of "a Feet Old
Channel Believed to Have
Been Located.

A rich strike has been made on No. {
above discovery on Dry creek. This
claim is owned by the Pioneer Mining
Co.. and is operated under lease by
Charles Larsen, G. f. Carlson. Charles
Olsen, Peter johnson and Ed Johnson
the latter being represented by Fred
Strom, Johnson being foreman of the
Sugar claim.
The laymen have been working No. {
all winter, in fairly good pay, and have
taken out dump containing $4,000
buckets. The ground is thawed, and
about "a feet to bedrock. The oper.
ators had practically given up work for
the season, so far as taking out dump
was concerned, and were doing little
prospecting until such time as "cave-
ms" would drive them from the shaft.
From the shaft from which the dump
was taken, which is about the center
of the creek bed. long tunnel was run
west into the bench portion of the
claim on the right limit. Here the
rich discovery was made, the gold
being in Il tine.looking black gravel.
One pan containing $40 was taken out,
and s., "a and So pans were frequent.
Whether this will be well-defned
paystreak or a mere pocket could not
be determined, as "cave-in'' oc.
Cured, covering the workings and de.
ferring further prospecting for the
time being.
The miners on the creek claims on
Dry creek in the vicinity of No. 6 are
highly elated at this new find and in.
cline to the belief that the lost channel
between the summit and the Prague
and Bella Kirke benches has beer
found. Should this prove true, and a
continuous paystreak be traced from
the Connolly-Leach-Duggan and Tapp-
Douglass claims on the summit, where
the operators have struck it rich. tC
the Prague-Bella Kirke benches. where
the lost channel again appears, Dry
creek will have no superior in this dis
trict as gold producer.
The report comes from credible au-
thority of the recent finding of a rich
pocket of gold on No. bench, left
limit of Dry, adjoining the Prague
bench on the north. At the bottom of
a shaft prospectors took out AZ ounces
of dust confined in small pocket.
There was no paystreak at all, and
nothing more could be found.

Against Mailing of Gold
Dust From Nome.
VIOLATION OF Law
Claimed by Transportation Com
panies, and Aid of Govern.
ment Is Asked.

Seattle, Feb. 12.-According to a
dispatch from the acknowledgement
Washington correspondent, published
yesterday. vigorous protest has been
made to the Washington government
by the water transportation companies
Of Seattle against the use of the mails
as means of transportation of gold
from the great treasureland of the
north, especially Nome, to this and
other ports. Last year, it is esti-
mated by the companies, more than
81 ,OO0,O 900 worth of Nome gold came to
Seattle through the medium of the
mails. The result was that the trans
pOrtatiOn companies received mail
carrying rates for bringing out the
gold.
Formerly they charged about per
cent. for carrying the gold dust, and in
some instances an additional charge of
per cent. in insurance for its safe
delivery.
For a while the miners and trades
people of Alaska and the British Yu-
kOn submitted to this charge, which
they claimed was exorbitant. In
time they began to look about for
cheaper transportation, finally hitting
upon the mail plan. At first the trans
portation companies boldly proclaimed
that the transportation Of gold in ex-
cess of four pounds through the mails
was violation of the law. When this
charge was made the postmasters,
especially F. w. SwantOn, at Nome,

Capt. Spinney Victim of
Knife Wounds
EARLY THIS MORNING
Assaulted by Lewis Lockhardt,
Who Was Arrested and
is Now in Jail.

Lewis Lockhardt is in the city jail
and charge of assault with a dead,
weapon with intent to kill will be lodged
against him this afternoon.
About 2o'clOck this morning Lock.
hardt stabbed Capt. +. E. Spnney with
big pocket fnife. inhicting serious
wounds in his left shoulder, his arm
between the shoulder and elbow, and
ripping the flesh to the bone between
his elbow and wrist. The wounds.
while severe, are not considered dan
gerous.
According to the stories told Lock-
hardt went to Spinney's house about
II O'Clock. Mrs. Lockhardt separated
from her husband several months ago
and for some time she has been cooking
for Capt. Spinney. Lockhardt says
that he went there to warn his wife
that the grand jury was investigating
her relations with Capt. Spinney, and
she would likely be arrested He
opened the door, which was not locked,
and went to the room occupied by his
wife. She was asleep. and it is alleged,
he began choking her. The woman
screamed and awakened Capt. Spinncy,
who was asleep in an ad joining ROOM
Spinney grappled with Lockhardt and
elected him from the house, taking
from him, it is alleged, big gun load
ed with cartridges. Lockhardt left,
but returned in short time. Spinnev
had lain down in his bed and dropped
off to sleep. a thrust from a knife
awakened him, and he sprang up Lock-
hardt continuing to strike him repeat
eddy. Finally Lockhardt was overpow-
cred, with the aid of Mrs. Lockhardt.

under arrest. DR.. j. NJ. Sloan was

cited the law and postal regulations as
authority for his course. He claimed
That he had no other alternative than
to accept the gold for shipment, and in
support of his contention quoted sec
ton No. 4SS of the postal laws and
regulations of 1902, which reads:
Mail matter of the first class fully
prepaid and matter Of the second class
prepaid at the regular or transient rate
VIII be accepted for mailing at any
postoiilce regardless of the weight
thereof"
the possessor of gold chooses to pay the
urst class postage rate, 81 cents per
pound, with registry fee of 8 cents, he
may send ton of the treasure, if he
so desires. Last season a number of
lOO-pound gold mail cOnsignments we're
received in this city from Nome. The
government, however, gives an in
demnity OF only $25 on any one letter or
package of mail, no matter if it is
worth 100000.
The gold shippers were not slow in
securing better protection against theft
or loss by insurance. The insurance
companies were glad to take the risk
at the rate of one-half of / per cent,
and in the case of currency at about
One-tifth of per cent.
A great deal of the Alaska and Brit
ish Yukon gold for the past several
years has been purchased from it's
original owners with currency sent
north through the mails to the bank
ers and trading companies for that
especial purpose. Millions of dollars
worth of currency is sent through the
regular mails all over the United
States during the course of year.
The transportiOn companies in their
fight against the mail transportation of
gold from the north have had the
assistance and hearty cooperation of
the insurance companies.
Discussing the alleged abuse OF the
Nome mails for gold transportation
Assistant Postmaster Colkett says:
THE postmaster at Nome violated
no law or regulation of the department
in accepting the gold as mail. In fact,
he had no other alternative, as will be
seen by perusal of section 48S of the
postal laws and regulations The mails
are used everywhere throughout the
United States as means of transpOrt;i-
ton of currency, as well as gold from
A laska. The pOstmasters, | presume,
would not be especially displeased at
the discOntinuance of the mails as
means of transportation for gold from
the north. as 1t makes more work.

Strike on Gold Bottom.

Father Devine, DR. DeSoto and Miss
F. +. Fitz went ont to No. , on Gold
bottom, Monday and returned Tuesday
evening. From prospects found, this
creek is destined to become one of the
richest in the district. There seems to
be gold from the grass roots To a depth
of nine feet or more, and several of the
pans yielded from three to five cents
each. Thus far some very coarse gold
has been found on this creek, averaging
something like 10 per cent Nuggets,
some running at from $500 to $500
each. This strike was made in one of
of the drifts that was run this winter,
