That the manufacturers of the coun- try are busy is evidenced by the fact that the importation of that class of their raw materials which they draw from other parts of the world exceeds in nearly every instance that of the corresponding period of any earlier year.
 Raw silk totalling l4,75O,000 pounds was imported into the United States for the eight months period of 1912. as against 13.500,oO0 pounds for the like period of last year. Cotton im- ports for the same perio dwere lO2,- 500,000 pound compared with ss.000.- 900 pounds in 1911. Hides and skins. India rubber. fbers. wool and lumber show similar increases.
 The total value of all crude ma terials imported for manufacturing during the first eight months of 1912 was $41s.sO7.350. compared with s334 623.436 in 1911.
 Finished manufactures. likewise show an increase. The figures for the eight months period show the total value of these for 1912 to be $491.- 6S5.5O5. compared with s424,ol4,636 for the same period in 1911.

LONDON. Oct. A bill has been introduced in the house of commons to prevent the indirect influencing of parliamentary constituencies by can didates and members of parliament by means of subscription to certail reIIg ious. charitable, public or sem! public institutions or enterprises
 The bill would include all such pay ments in the candidates electio. .x- penses, a return of which he .as to make under the present law.

 The law against corrupt practices at elections in the British Is'e is all ready very strict, and any exreudi- lures beyond that specially permitted by law invalidates an election.

sTRATAoEM OF kAlsER's SON.

BERNIE, Oct. 15.-The emperor of Germany, who has been attending the Swiss army maneuvers, met Colonel Frey, formerly Swiss ambassador 70 Washington. to whom he told an amusing story of how his son, Prince Adalbert, tried to join him in Zurich last week, travelling from St. Moritz for that purpose. Prince Adelbert found the streets impossible, owing to the crowds assembled in the hope of obtaining a glimpse of the German emperor.
 In the attempts of Prince Adelbert to penetrate the crowds. a brilliant idea struck him. He joined the gym nastic club entrusted to the duty or guarding the hotel where the emperor stopped. Shouldering his stick, Prince Adelbert marched gaily along in the front rank until he reached the foyer, where he joined his father.

PENSIONS FOR
ALL VETERANS
Democratic Pension Law Is
Now in Force---Aids All
Old Soldiers

Civil war veterans are now for
warding their applications for pen.
sions under the new pension bill,
which was signed by President Taft
May II.
The bill allows $50 a month to all
soldiers wounded in battle. or dis
abled by disease contracted in line
of duty. The bill also provides for
a service pension for all Civil war
veterans, according to the age and
time of service, as follows:
Aberdeen herald. [volume] (Aberdeen, Chehalis County, W.T.) 1886-1917, 1912-05-27

The above rates are for Cival war
veterans. The maximum is $50 per
month and this amount also is fixed
for all veterans of the Mexican war
who served so days or more. Pension
benefits date from the time of filing
application. Any veterans already
pensioned under other acts may profit
by this if thereby they may secure a
higher rate. But they may not be
pensioned under this act, and any 9th
er at the same time.
Blank declarations for pensions
under this act have been sent to the
commanders of Grand Army Posts, or
will be mailed from the department on
application.

Strike Adds to Danger

The insurrection and the serious
labor troubles, as a result of the re-
newal of the longshoremen's strike.
are believed to warrant American pre-
paredness. OF the two, the disturb
ances which probably will arise at
the Cuban ports through the strikers
operations, are believed to be the
more immediate and dangerous ele-
ments in the situation. 1t is believed
that the near presence in such ports
of one or more of the American war
ships, by its moral effect, would pre-
vent violent demonstrations by the
disorderly elements.
Should this not be sufficient, re-
course will be had to the marine
force on each of the battleships and

BIGGEST YIELD OF
OIL THIS YEAR.

The California Oil World of Bakers
field estimates that the total output OF
petroleum in California will reach be-
tween S9O0O,00O and 10000, 900 bar
rels, based upon the total for the first
six months of 1912. This gross total
for the six months is 43,716,72 bar
rels, and if the ratio continues the
same during the last six months the
total for the year will be 81, ABB, 404
barrels If several big gushers should
come in, this total will be slightly in
creased to the Worlds figures.
1t is gratifying to note that there
is a steady gain in shipments, not
withstanding the low prices for the
poorer quality of crude fuel oil. AS
the demand for the products of Pc
troleum is constantly increasing all
over the world there will be no limit
to the industry and there will be no
such thing known as an oversupply.

CHANCE FOR OKLA
TIES In AUSTRALIA

The following report from Consul
General John P. Bray, Sydney, appear
ing in Consular Reports, may indicate
good market for Hawaiian ohia ties
in Australia:
"The Works Department of the
States of New South Wales recently
called for a supply of railroad ties to
be used in connection with an extern
sion of the line from Wagga to Turn
barumba, this State. Over 10000 ties
were required, and despite the fact
that the needs of the Works Depart
ment were duly advertised, no one has
as yet made the offer to supply them.
1T would thus appear that the local
supplies of hardwood are being steadi1
" reduced; for hundreds of thousands
of hardwood ties have been End are
still being exported from this State to
the other States of the Commonwealth
as we'll as oversee, and is now becom-
ing a serious question as to where the
ST pplies required for local consump-
ton will be drawn from. Assuredly
there is still fair supply OF growing
timber suitable for this purpose, bit 1t
is only matter Of time when, unless
the greatest care be taken of refores-
tetion, it will ben ecessary for the
Works Department and also the Rail-
read Department to purchase their re-
quiremens from districts beyond the
State borders. This condition of af-
fairs is peculiarly interesting in view
o: the fact that the railroad lines of
the State are controlled and operaed
by the State Government and rot by
private companies or corporations.

NO TRACE OF ESCAPED CONS

.lyles and Webb. the two cons
who made their escape from the
Prison Farm several weeks ago,
seemed to have dropped off the
earth with their horses. If there
is any trace of this pair the State
Police and auth orities are not put =
fishing the fact. The two horses
they took with them have also
dropped out and it is the opinion
that the animals wee taken into
some out-of-the-way place al.
killed, as they we're moi able to
stand any very great trip and
would most have likely turned up
before this if they were alive.
1t is believed that the men
headed north. where they knew
the section and it is possible they
have turned the horses loose on
the range. In such an event it
will be fall before they are dis
covered, as the stockmen will not
roundup before that time. 1t is
also probable that the men went
across the mountains toward
Placerville, which could have been
done at the time they ESCAPED.

WATER CASE IS
VERY IMPORTANT

The Lovelock water case is still
occupying the attention of Judge
Ducker of the District Court and
the present hearing may net BE-
finished this week as the attorneys
for each side are contesting every
point.
Yesterday the taking of testi-
mony ON behalf of the defendant,
the Pacific Reclamation company,
was commenced. This company is
the one which has built a large
dam and reservoir near Wells and
is storing the waters Of Bishop
creek, one of the principal streams
at the head of the Humboldt. 1t
is said that the company, which
has colonization project near
Wells has held back the entire flow
of Bishop creek this year and that
this is one of the principal reasons
that the HUI boldt river is now 20
oW at I.ogelock that the ranchers
there have not sufficient water to
irrigate their crops. The eonten-
ton of the Lovelock water users is
that their rights being older by
many years, they are entitled to
the water when the Pacific Recla-
nation company is holding back
and they are seeking to have the
defendant company permanently
restrained from storing the water
of Bishop creek, thus depriving
the plaintiffs of what legally
belongs to them by reason of
prior appropriation.
The case is without doubt one of
the most important water suits
ever heard in the courts of the
state The outcome is of vital

COMSTOCK BULLION

This evening the largest ship
ment of bullion since the palmy
days of the Comstock will be ma dc
by the Mexican mill, when twelve
bars of bullion will be shipped
which weigh over a ton. Judging
by the way the value of the bullion
heretofore shipped has figured up,
the value of the shipment will be
over $4,000. This is the record
shipment for many years and will
be an eye opener to people who
think the old camp is not in the
bullion producing game The
Mexican mill is running smoothly
and with few improvements soon
to be made. it is expected that the
ore will be worked to 95 per cent
which is as good as can be done
