Every day their gloomy prophecies
are being dispelled by facts and the
steady advance of business prosper
ity. Crops-prodigious crops-are
beginning to move and business slim
ulation is already reported from near
ly every section of the country. We
are going to have a splendidly pros
porous fall season.
AS evidence of the constituencies
efforts to create uneasiness / need
only call attention to the solemn pre-.
dictions made on the floor of Con.
gress a short time ago by certain
Republican leaders that the United
States Treasury was piling up huge
deficit and that the Secretary of the
Treasury would soon issue Govern
ment bonds. How thoroughly they
are discredited! The Treasury state
ment issued July / shows that the
fiscal year closed with a surplus of
$33,7S4,452O7. This amount and ST.
100000 more was spent on the Pana-
ma canal, but that is for property
bought and paid for. and is an asset,
not a deficit. And an issue of Gov
eminent bonds is not in sight! In
fact one can not be discovered with
a telescope, much less with the ov-
er-sensitive obliquity of vision Of our
highly excitable political opponents.
There is no doubt that we shall be
able to import gold in the fall if we
want to. The marketing of our crops
must necessarily create huge bal
ances in our favor. Gold imports do
not, however, always follow because
the balance of trade is in our favor.

The really well bred traveller is quiet.
She does not move about in a restless
fashion. She does not complain Of her
fellow passengers. She remembers that
she is only one Of many thousands who
are spending their days speeding over

There Is a type Of traveller who Is a
public nuisance. She boards the train
with half q dozen small bags and
packages in her arms and spends per.
haps the first half hour Of the journey
getting them settled. When she gets
herself settled she finds she needs find
some infinitesimal object in the par
ticular package or box that is In the
most inaccessible position. When it
b disinterred she settles herself again
Then she pulls down the shade to keep
the sun out Of her eyes and immedi-
ately thereafter runs 1t to the top Of
the window because the train Is too
dark. She fidgets and fumes because
Of the heat and worries because of the
draft and scowls at the mother Of a
erwin" baby. And she makes her fell
low travellers AS unhappy us she herself
Is unless they are endowed with an
active sense of humor
Another unpopular type is the travel
er who talks in loud tone. Fellow
travellers are treated to unwelcome de-
tails Of some unknown relatives tooth

romance of second cousin somebody's
young life.

STAMPS DROPPING
 IN GRANITE MILL
Port Wells Property Added to the Producers-Stamps Started
 Last Friday.

Word was received in Valdez this morning that the stamps at the GraD- ite Gold Mining company mill had started to drop last Friday and that the table showed that the ore now being run contained big values.
 Supt. Willard has written to Attor- ney Bunnell, the local representative of the company, that the mill and tram were working excellently.
 Enough ore has already been block ed out to keep the mill running night and day for six months and the devel- opment work was being pushed to open up the property and block out the ore.
 The Granite company have spent $32, 900 in placing the property on a milling basis. The larger part of this money was subscribed by miners who visited the property and know of it's values.
 Senator Willard and his son, w. R. Willard, formerly superintendent of the Cliff, bonded the property from Tatum last summer, having associated with them Jafet Lindeburg and J. E. Chilberg Later a stock company was organized so as to open up the property
