WOULD PLACE SOUTHERN
ISLANDERS IN RESTRAINT
Governor of Moro Province Asks Uncle
Sam to ReIeaate Natives to Prop
erly PoIiced Reservations

WASHINGTON, Dec. 29.-Because 80
per cent of the inhabitants of the
southern group of the Philippines are
barbaric tribes of Moros, pagans or
non-Christians, savage in their in
stincts, fighting for gain or revenge
with a fanatical disregard for death
and are many years behind the people
of the northern Philippines in intel
ligence and general civilization, Colonel
Ralph Hoyt, governor of the Moro
province, recommends that these
islands be constituted a separate gov
ernment and the natives relegated to
reservations.
Colonel Hoyt urged a government for
the southern islands similar to the one
now maintained in Moro and the oc-
cupation and use of them by the
United States as coaling station and
naval bases.

Rose-Colored Quartz and Gives
Promise of Quantity-con-
tract on Clara Belle

SEARCHLIGHT, Dec. 29.-Quick re-
suits of a most gratifying nature have
followed the recent resumption of work
on the Old Mizzoo, situated about six
miles southeast of town.
President J. j. Smith of that com
pany has samples of what might well
be termed a strike The ore Is also at
tractive to the eye, being an old-rose
colored quartz of uniform color and
texture. giving promise of quantity.
Its value is not estimated, other than
that the paintings indicate an extra
milling grade.
The new find was in a thlrty-fve-
foot erosscut from the bottom of d
seventy-five-foot shaft. The work be-
fore had cut numerous stringers and
seams of value and the latest results
have but carried out Mr.. Smiths eX-
pectations.
Active work on the property of the
Gold Star Mining company at Mob
Hill is to begin this week, IL is said.
A fifteen horse power gasoline hoist
has been ordered and it is announced
that the mine will be operated on a
scale commensurate with its merits.
j. II. Jameson, r. Moulton and II. c.
Cooper, who visited the property a
week ago, have interested themselves
and become directors in the company.
|. K. L. Suspends Temporarily
Finding that underhand stopping was
both slow and expensive, the leasers on
the |. Y. L. will suspend steady milling
temporarily. They have been keeping
the Searchlight mill busy and the ore
on hand will make up a few days more
running. Three shifts are employed on
the lower tunnel Fastening the work
so that overhead stopping can be
started.
Following the cleanup of the l. y.
L. ore a run will be made of some
fifty tons from the Kirkeby and Gaines
lease on the Good Hope. This ore, it
is estimated, will average $40, but in
this connection it is hard to state, as
the samples show a wide divergency.
The Good Hope ore is spotted. one
assay will run up in the thousands.
while the next but a few dollars. This
week specimen, picked up by chance
on the dump, was literally plastered
with the yellow metal.
The various plans for the develop
ment and advancement of the estate of
the Gold Beam Consolidated, as out
lined several weeks ago, were given
additional impetus this week upon the
arrival from Denver of Secretary A.
l.. Hitler.
Mr.. Hitler closed a contract with
John Howe for additional sinking In
the main shaft on the Clara Belle be-
low the 100-foot level This contract
insures that the property will be a
scene of activity well into the new
year, after which further work will
probably be undertaken.
The development work contracted
for with Mr.. Howe is ample to protect
all ten claims of the group under the
annual labor requirements.

TO OURS
Capitalist Vitaily Interested in British
Columbia Metropolis Plans to
Invade Local Realty
Market

Los Angeles looks pretty good to
me. 7 think she's about the biggest
thing in the United States today as far
as an investment proposition goes"
said A. L. Hampton, a Vancouver cap
italist, at the Hotel Hollenbeck yes
terday. Mr.. Hampton is president of
Hampton & Co., brokers, of Van
couver. He is chairman of the board
of directors of the International Bond
ing company, prime mover in the Ker-
risdale Improvement association and
director in several of the largest cor
porations in British Columbia. The
Vancouver financier is here with his
wife and little daughter before taking
trip to the Hawaiian islands, where
the family will spend several months.
Los Angeles stands out clearly as
the fastest growing locality in the
state of California said Mr. Hamp-
ton yesterday. Her growth has been
marvellous. 1t can no longer be said
that she is dependent on the tourist
crop. In fact, your city as it stands
today speaks for itself. l expect to
see Los Angeles a great seaport and
metropolis. But let me get a word in
on Vancouver. for the growth of our
city has been along the same lines
as that of Los Angeles, and i'm many
ways the development of the two cities
has been similar.
In five years Vancouver has jumped
from a population of $4,000 to popu-
| lation of 1885, 000 The city has seven
banking institutions. and bank clear
| ings there this year amount to more
than $I000000 a week. Property that
two years ago sold at $500 and $500 a
front foot today brings several times
that front foot.
Acreage Shows Increase
Here Is an illustration The British
government recently put on the mar
ket $50 acres of land around Point
Gray that brought from $4,000 to SIG 900
an acre. One year ago acreage in that
vicinity and directly surrounding tho
governments property was valued
from $500 to $500 an acre.
1.-THE British Columbia Electric COM
pany has appropriated 81, 500 900 for ex-
penditure on the street railway sys-
| tenn of Vancouver. The Canadian
Pacific railroad has appropriated more
than $9000.000 for expenditure on the
| improvement and extension OF its
properties. Seven trunk line railroads
are centering in Vancouver and this
! has proven a tremendous impetus TO
| the growth of the city. Vancouver.
! like Los Angeles, has the Foundation
| for the molding of a metropolis, and
repeat that in many ways the two
| cities are similar.
II am negotiating a deal at the pres
ent moment for the purchase of a tract
of land outside of the city which. If
it is closed, will involve a great many
| thousand dollars. We have made the
owners an Offer and if it is accepted
my associates and l will put on the
market one of the highest class sub
! divisions around Los Angeles. l hope
| this deal will go through, for I feel
that still bigger things are doing here
than even in Vancouver"
