Edelweiss, the fatal bloom" has al
most disappeared from the Mont Blanc
range in Switzerland, and an Irish
nobleman, who is an expert mountain
climber, is now engaged for the sec
ond summer in planting the flower at
the highest attitudes he can reach.
The self-imposed task, although it
evinces a pleasing sentiment, does no
body any particular good. If infiuen-
tial men of leisure would apply their
enthusiasm to the work of reforest-
ing barren places at home, there would
be different story to tell.

Lower Levy; More Money.

Although this years tax levy is
smaller than that of 1907 by 2.G mills,
the appropriation ordinance passed
by the city council recently gives all
departments practically more money

release from old obligations due to
the issuance of $1S0,000 bonds. There
is an increase this year in the city

Allison Honored in Memorial Service.
When both houses of the general
assembly met in joint convention to
pay homage to the late William B.
Allison, all factionalism was forgotten,
all partisanship was laid aside for
the nearly two hours devotion to the
man who had for forty years been
the chief representative of the state
in the halls of the nation and had
served his country so well. The gal
leries were filled with visitors from
the city and from all over the state,
called here by the presence in the
city of the judicial convention. The
words which were spoken were
heartfelt ones, for among the legis-
lators were many who knew Allison
as a counsellor, as one who had by
words of wisdom guided the state
as well as the nation through troub-
lous legislative periods. Lieutenant
Governor Garst was the presiding Of
ficer. The Hylo quartet furnished
the music for the occasion. Through.
out the service it was a touching
tribute of the state to it's greatest
citizen. The resolutions signed by
the memorial were read by Senator
Frudden of Dubuque.

Travellers on the interurban line
between Des Moines and Herrold will
continue to pay fare to and from the
regularly established pay stations in
stead of the stations on the line
where they may elect to get on or
off the cars. Pay stations have been
established by the company every
two miles between Sixth avenue in
this city and the station of Herrold
This is declared by the state railroad
commission to be sufficient number,
and that the company may not be re-
CURED to establish additional ones at
this time. Decision was made in the
case of j. H. Chandler against the
Inter-Urban Railway Company. The
petition and the decision applies,
specifically, to the section of the
line described. How many stations
there are west of Herrold and
whether tn etwo-mile limit between
pay stations would be held by the
commission to apply to all parts of
the interurban lines is not known.
These matters may be developed on
new case on which further hearing
may be held.

ing engineer of much repute and
experience in the gold placer re.
gon OF Alaska, returning home
from an examination of the placer
ground in the vicinity of Cumaripa,

In conversation on the train Tues
day afternoon the gentleman stated
to THE OASIS editor that he knows
of several gold dredges in success
full and profitable operation in
Alaska that are working ground
not so rich as that at Cumaripa
and they are operating under
many disadvantages unknown en-
tirely in Mexico. Mr.. Thomas
stated also that he tested the bee
of the Yaqui river, and in the sand
and gravel there he found gold il
abundance which will pay hand
somely to work by dredging. He
looks upon the region he had JUS
visited as one of the great promise
for gold dredging propositions.
