Lower Cost Of improvements.

A movement is on for the purpose
of lowering the cost of street I'M
provements from Kittitas to Peachy
and from Peachey to Stevens streets
The contract for the improvement
on these streets was respectively
$500 and $4.20 per front foot. BY
using this surfacing, namely. two
layers of crushed rock, it is found
that the cost of improvements may
be lowered S5c per front foot from
Kitt1tas to Peachey and 60c from
Peachy to Stevens. The contractors
are willing to accept the new plan,
providing they do not in any way
invalidate their bond. A petition
will be circulated to be signed by
the residents along these two streets
asking for this change in the i'm
provement plans.

Speaker of Lower House Re-
covered From Painting
Spell at Winfield.

Emporia, Kan, July 1S.-Speaker
Cannon was up early today after
a good nights rest prepared for the
day of strenuous campaigning.
The weather here is cool and a re-

Sons, arrived here yesterday from
Chicago, accompanied by his wife.
They are at the Great Northern ho-
tel and expect to remain in the city
until the close of the season. Mr..
Lanham states that he left swelter-
ing hot weather in Indiana and Illi-

is glad to wear his coat in this CHI
mate. Mr.. Lanham states that he
has found that his estimate of the
fruit crop made here previously was
small enough and indications now
are that the crop of the northwest

COMMITTEE WILL REPORT
FAVORAB[Y ON BALLNCER
Chicago Tribune Has Special Story in Which it States
That Secretary of the Interior Ballinger Will Be
Given Whitewash by Committee Which Has Been
Working Report for the Past Five Months.

Chicago, July 18.-According to
special story in the Chicago Trib-
une today under Washington date,
Ballinger will be exonerated by a
majority report in the joint con-
gressional committee which for five
months has been making an execu-
tive investigation on the conduct of
affairs in the department of the in
terror and of the bureau of forestry
of the department of agriculture.
The investigators who concur in
the majority report which carries
condemnation of the course of for
mer Chief Forester Pinchot, Garfield
and Louis r. CLAWS, according to
the Tribune story, are Senators Mel
son, Flina, Sutherland, Root and
Representatives Mccall and Ohm
stead. 1t also declares the minority
report will be filed, declaring Balm
ger guilty of the charges made
uS1eliiiSI Hill, " " HUI Tie
of Senators Purcell, Fletcher and
Representatives Madison, James and
Graham will be attached.
1t is asserted that the majority
report will be drafted by Nelson, the
minority by James, and that in ad-
dition, Madison has written his own
opinion of the affair, although he
will sign the minority report.
The majority report it is said, will
find that Ballinger acted within the
record and displayed the proper
judgment with respect to the Cum
ningham coal claims: that he was
honest and conservative in his &C
ton; that he was justified in his
criticism of the reclamation service
and his abandonment of the policy
of Garfield. The minority report, 1t
is asserted, will conflict in almost
every particular with the finding of
the majority.

FAVOR BUREAU Of
IDENTIFICATION
Meeting of Sheriffs at Ever
EFT Closed and Sheriff
Ferguson Home.

J. E. Ferguson returned last night
from Everett where he has been at
tending the state convention of sher-
ifs. Officers from Brush Colum-
bia were also in attendance and par
ticipated in the proceedings. In ad-
dit1on to the resolutions which have
already been published several other
recommendations to the legislature
were agreed upon. One regarding
the abolition of the necessity of cor
roborating testimony in rape cases.
Another important action was the
agitation to establish a bureau of
identification. This was proposed by
the Vancouver inspector of police,
Chas Mulburn. The plan is to To-
cate this office either at Portland
or Seattle, which will be headquar-
tiers for British Columbia, Washing
ton, Oregon and Idaho. Records
would be kept here of the finger
prints, photos and other evidence
giving the identity of criminals.
These records would be especially
valuable in enforcing the habitual
criminal act as well as assisting in
the tracing of criminals. The office
would be maintained by appropria-
tons, either from the states or the
cities served. No other such depart
ment exists in this country except the
one of the national government at
Washington, D. c. The sheriffs were
very enthusiastic about it and hope
to consummate the scheme.

MINING BOOM At
LEAvENW0RTH
Colonel Goulden Heads Min
ing Concern With $12,-
100000 Capital.
OWNS TWO BIG GROUPS
One is Developed by 1000
Foot Tunnel-Diamond
Drill Plant.
OWNS TWO BIG GROUPS

Leavenworth, Wash, July 49,
The arrival of Congressman J. A.
Goulden of New York, president OF
the Chelan Consolidated Copper COM
pany, whose headquarters are in this
city, has aroused new interest in
mining matters in Leavenworth. He
expresses perfect confidence in the
future of Chelan county. His COM
pany has a capital of $12,000,0OO
and is controlled by prominent New
York people 1t has large holdings
at TudeX as we'll as in the famous
Red Mountain mining district and is
working at both places.
The Tudex property consists of
800 acres, with 1900 feet of working
tunnel. Several veins, carrying pay
ore, principally copper, have been
discovered.
At Red Mountain the company has
property covering more than 5000
acres, with a splendid water power.
Three tunnels are being driven,
which now are 800, 700 and 1000
feet in length. Some 20 veins of
mineral, carrying silver, gold, lead,
copper and arsenIcal iron ore, have
been cut, with values of from 81 to
SIS a ton.
The main tunnel, 1000 feet in
length, is thought to be within a
very short distance of the main vein.
To expedite the prospecting of this
ledge Colonel Goulden has let con-
tract to install diamond drill plant
that will enable the Chelan company
to speedily ascertain the location
and value of the main lead.
The regular tunnel work with two
shifts will be stopped this week and
the new plant will be installed in a
few days.
Some of the most famous mineral
ogists OF the country, including
Profs. Stillman and Nathall of New
York and Harper of Cincinnati, have
visited and carefully examined this
property. They were all emphatic
IN their opinions that the Red noun
tain was rich in minerals and that
it would prove a bonanza.
Representative Goulden has held
his seat in congress for many years
and is regarded as one of the lead
ing members of the house. He ex-
poets to remain here for some time
looking after his company's inter-
ests.
Harry G. Krollpfeiffer, mining
engineer of ability, is the superin-
tendent. His headquarters are at
Red Mountain.
The recent discovery of a large
body of magnetic iron ore in the
southern part of the county and the
fact that interested parties have
been here looking up location for
a plant to smelt the ore, have caused
considerable excitement among the
people of Leavenworth.

w. w. Stevens, who is down from
Waterville today, states that the past
week has been a very severe one on
the Big Bend people. The extreme
heat has shriveled the gram and Mr..
Stevens gives it as an estimate that
there cannot be over a so per cent
crop, possibly not that much, and
that great portion of the grain will
be second class rather than first
grade as susual.
