Philadelphia, May gov. J. Bryan,
who delivered an address before the
Pennsylvania peace conference in ses-
sion in this city, when asked his views
ooncerning the outcome of the pri-
maries held in Alabama, where he
secured an apparent victory for the
control of the national delegates to
the Denver convention, said.
Alabama was claimed by the oppo-
sition and while. the vote is not sur
prise to me it attracts attention be-
cause the returns answered the mis-
representations which have. been sent
out, The primary system enables the
voters to express themselves. In this
respect our Democrats in the West
have had an advantage over the Dem
ocrats Of some of the Eastern states,
where the method of selecting dele
gates does not give the rank and file
Of the party such complete control.
appreciate very much the fight
that has been made by my friends in
Pennsylvania and, in Alabama, for in
Alabama they had the steel trust to
fight and in Pennsylvania they had
not only the steel trust but several
other trusts. In fact, do not know
of any other state in which our people
had so much to overcome as they had
in Pennsylvania. The vote. which l
received here at the recent primaries
answered the Misrepresentation that
the Eastern papers had made in re-
gard to. the sentiment in Pennsylvania
and the same may be said of Ala

Character of Building Material
That Is Being Used

lions. The average cost of buildings
is constantly increasing, having risen
over three hundred dollars during the
last three years. The average value
of a building is given in the report as
$2,005.
Lumber is by far the greatest
drain on the forests. and the wonder
full development of the country during
the past decade has called for the
use of nearly forty billion board feet
each year.
The largest quantity ever reported
for a single year was that for 1906,
when thirty seven and a half billion
feet, with a mill value of 1921 Isl 1888
was used. Including the value OF the
lathe and shingles used with this
amount, the total value of the wood
used for buildings is brought up to
1856, 1868.
The increasing price of lumber and
the rapidly increasing use of fire
proof material and systems of con
struction should have much to do if
forests are called upon to furnish each
year. but so far these more substan
tial materials have not decreased the
lumber cut of the nation.
The silver state news. [volume] (Winnemucca, Nev.) 1907-1909, 1908-02-06

Cement and brick and steel and
stone are not yet used in sufficient
quantities to encourage lumber users
to predict the time when the forests
of the country will be called upon to
furnish the principal supply of mate
rails used in the building operations.
Notwithstanding the increased use of
cement and other freproof materials
the last report of the building opera
tions in forty-nine of the leading
cities of the United States for the
year, collected by the geological sur
vey, show that 50 per cent of them
were of wood construction
Even If the remaining Al per cent
Of the buildings were built of brick,
stone and concrete, vast quantities of
wood were consumed in the construc-
ION and in the finish, though in the
latter form, metal is taking the place
= wood to a very large extent.
While this percentage is representa-
tive OF the building indust in the
I nited States. dealers peint out that
it does not include the large amount

dwellings, stores and other buildings.

towns scattered around over the coun-
try and not included in the forty-nine
cities in which no reckoning was made
In towns and email cites wood is
usually the predominating building
rsaterial and it is safe to say that
if the statistics had included the fig
ures for all places for whatever size
the percentage of wooden construction
would have been much greater. These
figures, as a rule, are only for the cor
porate limits, and the suburbs of the
cities have a very large amount to be
added. The cost. also, is relatively
higher in these cities than in towns
near the base of supplies
In wooden buildings New York is
at the bottom Of the list, though it
leads with $1s.075 as the average cost
of her buildings. Except in San Fran
cisco, where abnormal conditions have
prevailed since the fire, Boston shows
greatest increase of any of the cities
in the total cost of building opera

DEATH VALLEY IS A PLACE
OF MYSTERY

Death Valley, always a place of
deep mystery, of ghosts, COLLINS, I'M
earthly sounds and strange sights. it
would seen had become a rendezvous
for highwaymen, %murderers, assas-
sins, and suspicious characters gener-
ally, says the Goldfeld Chronicle. The
ghost stories told by some of the pros
pectors with a lively imagination and
"a desire to be entertaining, of course,
were not taken seriously, but the re-
ports of persons Of suspicious demean-
or have been seen not ~infrequently
of late, leads to the conclusion that
they have been founded on fact.
Not long ago a man was seen at
Willow Wash. a canyon leading to the
Panamints, west of Benefits well.
and his actions indicated that he had
no desire to cultivate theacquaintance
of the prospectors who discovered him
He appeared to be digging heal some
stone cabins in the Businesses of the
canyon when the prospectors approa-
ched When they hailed the map
threw down his implement and sought
cover bedinh a nearby rock, and the
prospectors, who ~momentarily expect
ed to be fired upon, fled in the oppo-
site direction.
Now, it is a well known fact that
miners and prospectors are the most
friendly and sociable people in the
world, and especially is it true that
when in the desert thev never pass
a man without exchanging courtesies,
experiences, and, mayhap, "borrow.
ing' a chew of tobacco or a cigar
The silver state news. [volume] (Winnemucca, Nev.) 1907-1909, 1908-02-06

cite. As a rule they are men of a
clear conscience and do not flee at
the sight of a fellow man. The soil
tude of the desert conduces to fell
lowship and friendly exchanges.
In the same locality, the Willow
Wash canyon, another prospector say
a woman, who retreated to cover when
she saw that she was observed. Wo-
men do not frequent these desert
wastes except for some powerful and
impelling cause.
One more among many others that
could be .recited. A prospecting out
fit some months ago came across
man at Benefits well, apparently
panning ore. When the man saw the
prospectors approaching he hastily
gathered his belongings together and
hit for the hills at a rapid rate. The
fact of his panning ore was nothing
in itself to excite suspicion, but his
hasty flight was. The prospectors are
of the opinion thta the man was test
ing some high grade Goldfeld ore.
There are tales of a fierce band of
outlaws once years ago having dwelt
in the Businesses of the Panamintsl
These bold men tits said would sa1d
the settlements in the California val
leys and then return to their mounain
dens. IT was at the hands of these
men, so history states, that the father
of Panamint Joe met his death.
The folk now in the Valley will fee
at the sight of a man, are probably
outlaws and assassins seeking to avoid
detection in this desolate region.
