sEATTLE's GREAT FAIR
WILL BE DRY
Novel Feature that Marks the Alaska.
Yukon-Pacific Exposition as Radi-
.cally Different from Other
Events of the Kind
Especial Correspondence.)

Especial Correspondence
SEATTLE, Wash, Dec. 4. = The
management of every great exposition
strive to have their fair different from
others in many respects, working for
distinctive features that will be at
tractive and advertise the exposition.
The management of the Alaska Yukon
Pacific exposition which will be hei
here next summer are doing this and
expect to go further in distinctive
features than any world 8 fair yet held.
There is one feature, however, of the
1909 exposition that is so unique that
it will mark the Alaska Yukon-Pacitic
exposition as radically different from
all other events of the kind held in this
country. This exposition is to be
"dry."
The exposition grounds are part of
the great campus of the University of
Washington. The laws of the state for
bid the sale of liquors within two miles
of the university, and while there was
a disposition on the part of the state
legislature to make an exemption for
1909 and allow liquor to be sold on
the exposition grounds, the directors
and stockholders decided that they
would forego precedent and have the
first "dry" exposition ever held in the
United States. This includes all the
cafes and restaurants, the resorts on
the "Pay Streak and all exhibits.
Ample provision will be made for
liquid refreshments of the non-alcoholie
and Notwithstanding kinds and pipes
will be laid for bringing water from
one of the best mineral springs in tn.
west right into the grounds.
This novel experiment will no doubt
be watched with interest by all, as
there has been much agitation of the
prohibition question in the country
during the last year. The management
have carefully figured the matter out
and believe that the fact of the 1909
exposition being "dry' will not only
serve as an excellent advertising
feature, but it will result in the at
tendance of many people who wish to
show approval of the plan. AS far as
the financial end is concerned, there
is no doubt, for it was long since a
settled fate that the selling of liquor
on exposition grounds brought in little
extra revenue

GEOLOGY OF THE TAYLoRsvILLE
REGION, CALIFORNIA
The Following Report was Made by .
Government Geologist

The United States geological survey
announces that a report on the geology
Of the Taylorsville region Of California,
by J.. s. Diller, is now ready for dis
tribution, and that copies may be 9th
tanned free of charge by applying to
the director of the survey at Washinfi-
ton, d. C.
The district covered by this report is
a triangular area at the north end OF
the Sierra Nevada, embracing the
northern part of Plumas county and
the adjacent portion of Lassen county,
and comprising about $50 square
miles. The greater part of the popula-
ton is in Indian Valley, Genesee Val
ley and North Arm, the town of Tay-
~lorsvifle, from which the region is
named, being approximately in its
center.
Prospectors found their way into the
forest clad mountains about Indian
Valley in the early days of the grea.
gold excitement in California. The dis
eovery Of the "Bullion ledge" a short
distance northwest Of Greenville, was
made in 1851, and so many locations
followed that within ten years Green
vile became an active mining center.
Gold was the primary object of search,
but the discovery of rich copper ores
- 1QRE 1al k~ fhA aranf.an Of N I'M N
copper furnace, which maintained \
sporadic activity for four years.
No great mines have been developed
about Indian Valley, but between 20
and so small ones have at various
times contributed to a total output of
more than ST. 100000. The values
have been almost wholly in gold, with
a little silver and less copper. Irou
ore, coal, building stone and mineral
springs are present but have not yet
become sources of revenue. There are
now many active prospects in the re-
gion, but scarcely half a dozen paying
mines.
The auriferous gravels which have
been mined about Indian Valley are
described by Mr.. Diller as of two
kinds-C)t the gravels of the present
stream beds and terraces near them
and (2) the gravels of ancient streams,
or high gravels like those of the Tay
lor diggings on mountain SUBMITS far
above the streams of today. generally
well rounded and water-worn. In rom
nection with the ancient auriferous
gravels certain residual dep sits are
mentioned, composed of debris derived
from the d~isintegration of the bed rock
in place. The gold liberated by the dis
Indignation and the erosion of rocks
that contain veins rich in native goId
is transferred to the channels OF
auriferous gravel.
Mr.. Diler's report gives a brief out
line of the geography, topography,
drainage, and economic development of
the region and a detailed discussion If
the geology. The sedimentary rocks
of this region are fossiliferous in manv
places and are said to contain a more
nearly complete record of the geologic
history of the Sierra Nevada thar has

NEvApA's TURN FOR FAME.

Her Just Claim.
Now Nevada's progress
The World car see.
We work not the border
OF waving sea,
But the vast interior
Of mount and dale,
Getting crops superior
For use and sale.
As yet agriculture
Is our mainstay,-
Grain, fruit, stock and pasture,
Alfalfa hay.
But of late our mining,
Which took a jump,
Set our fame a shining
With we'll earned pomp.
Digging, picking, blasting
Thus we go down
Where the ledge is lasting
In rock or ground.
Hosting works for egress,
Some tramways use.
Lastely the process
Ores to reduce.
New railroads and bridges,
Telephone lines,
Irrigation bitches,
Works of all kinds,
For increased production
Nevadans work on,
And for transportation
We also plan.
Electricity paid for
Without regret,
The climate exchanged for
One that's more wet.
We love our Nevada,
The battleborn state,
As gem in the Union
Acknowledged Of late.
We see the difference
These late years time
Wrought in Nevada
To show our climb
Of fast advancement
Nevadans leapt;
Like in enchantment
At times we slept.
The panic caught u
Not all awake,
And that's what brought US
A bad setback.
But we are emerging
Again from the spell.
Hurrah for Nevada,
Where people do well!
With boycotting banished
BY the state police act,
With Capital and Labor
In amicable compact,
With her great institutions
And teachers paid best,
The state of Nevada
Leads some Of the rest.
