BRITISH AND FRENCH
 PROMISE HELP TO RUSSIA

Petrograd: The Russian Ministry of Finance has issued the following statement:
 An exchange of views between the Ministers of Finance of the Allied powers has confirmed once again, ac- cording to information received at the Ministry of Finance, the accord between the Government of Russia, Great Britain and France, who have determined to unite all their re- sources to bring the present war to a glorious conclusion.
 Russia is assured that the neces- sary credits for the liquidation of or ders placed for the purpose of na- tional defense, as we'll as for the pay ment of interest on the sinking fund upon foreign loans to the Govern ment guaranteed by the State and people of Russia, which have hither- to hindereds the payment of the AL lies orders in America-have prob- ably been adjusted by the credit pro- vided by the Anglo-French loan of $500, 100000 and other measures contemplated by the allied govern ments.
 "At the same time an agreement has been concluded with the British and French ministers, and an agree ment has been reached between the Bank of England and the Russian Minister of Finance enabling Russian
 banks enjoying short term credits to increase their drafts upon British f. nancial houses. The principal object of this late measure is to enable Rus sian bankers to retain possession of their foreign securities."

NEUTRALITY"
 IN THE SUPREME COURT

The Supreme Court of the United States as we'll as President Wilson and ex-President Roosevelt, are ac- cused of "hyphenated neutrality" by the New Yorker Staats-Zeitung. The paper says:
 Lord Reading sat at the right of our highest tribunal, the Supreme Court of the country, which is often more powerful than the President and Congress combined, for it is the court of last resort. It would not be at all impossible that this highest court of justice of the foremost nine men of the country may have to con- cern itself officially with the loan, for instance, in the form of an in junction that might go to the court of last resort. And Lord Pumpus, the man who would eventually in that case appear as defendant has already sat at the right of these nine men, honored as a stranger has seldom been.
 "With the pride that is to be sought in the un-American sentiment of servility, the organ of 'hyphenated neutrality reports that this is the third time in the history of the Uni ted States that foreign jurist was invited to sit at the right of the Chief Justice of the United States. One man so invited was Lord Coler- idge, Chief Justice of England, and the other Lord Herschell. But both of these were of international re- nown in realms that had nothing to do with the jugglers tricks of the three golden balls of the pawnbrok- CT. The more, therefore,, was such honoring of Lord Pumpus 'hyphen- ated neutrality on the part of the nine men who, finally, will have to play the role of the highest Judge in affairs of that Lord"

MANY VALDEZ COUPLES
 ATTEND POST DANCE

The dance given by the Social club of Fort Liscum was a success in every way. A large crowd of Valdez people attended, as their dances are fast becoming very popular. The Fort Liscum boys certainly know how to treat their guests. Dancing was enjoyed until about 10:45 when the crowd adjourned to the mess hall where~a light supper was served. The music and dances were good and ev- eryone is hoping for another ball in the near future.

BLACK DIAMOND
 HAS R|CH ORES
New Lead Discovered Is Believed to Be Extension of the Three-in-
 One Ore Bodies.

The property of the Black Dia- mond Gold Mining company, located on the west side of Valdez bay and which adjoins the Ellis Imperial and Three-in-One mines, is showing up we'll under development work. w. s. Dow, who has a contract for the com pany for performing this years as- sessment work came up from the property yesterday bringing quan- tity of rock showing free gold which was broken from a lead twenty-one inches wide.
 During past years more than five hundred feet of tunnel has been run on the Black Diamond claims, but it was not until late last fall that the lead now being developed by the miners was discovered. Prior to this year the tunnels were run near the beach line and the new discovery is high up on the mountainside and is believed to be the extension of the Three-In-One lead now being devel- oped by Jeff Devinney and associates, and which promises to make one of the biggest mines in this district
 The Black Diamond company is composed entirely of Valdez people who are naturally elated over the good showing being made by the property under development work The location of the lead is said to he such that great depth can be ob- tained by running a short tunnel, which will determine the extent of the ore bodies sufficient to warrant development on large scale,
 The officers of the Black Diamond company are: c. c. Reynolds, Geo. Hobart, Harry Whitley, Jess Craw- ford, Geo. J. Love and l.. Graham.

ASK FARMERS
COOPERATION
State Veterinarian Urges Farm
ers and StOckmen to Assist
In Stamping Out Red
Water Disease

DR.. Mack State Veterinarian, was
here last Saturday and in company
with DR.. f. II. Baker visited several
of the ranches for the purpose of
making further Investigations of the
disease of stock commonly known as
red water. DIR. Mack has been work
ing on a treatment for this battling
disease for the past several months
and believes that he now has line on
the disease However. he is anxious
for the cooperation of stockmen and
urges them to report any cases to Dr.
Baker upon the first symptoms of the
sickness. BY doing this 1t will enable
the veterinarians to get cultures for
the further study of the disease which
has baffled the skill of all veterinar-
ians. No charge is made for this
work. The Investigations are being
carried on to discover treatment
for the prevention of the disease and
for the benefit of the stockmen.
Today DR.. Records of the University
of Nevada will come over from Reno
and with the assistance of DR.. Baker,
VII innocuate two calves with a new
serum discovered by DR.. Mack with
the hopes that it will prove pre-
ventatiye of red water.
One farmer in Carson Valley lost
si0,00o worth of stock last year by
this disease. Others have had small
loss right along and unless some treat
ment is found. is seems quite possible
that the disease will increase among
the stock of this section. Again all
stockmen are earnestly urged to noti-
fy Dr. Baker Immediately upon the
of red water among their
stock. by giving this cooperation
YOU will aid the veterinarians in their
work of finding treatment for the
disease

In Douglas county wide field is open

In unity there is strength, in CO.

only way that community can get
this united strength is to unite in CO.
operation for the common good of all
and pull and haul together.
One citizen may hit upon a splendid
ide for the advancement of local con-
ditions along some special line but he
cannot carry his idea to realization
without the support of his fellow citi-
zens. Organizations of this character
have spelled SUCCESS to more com
munities in the United States than
can be computed and on the other
hand more communities have retro
grated and laged behind COM
mercially. socially and every other
way because of the Indifference of its
citizens than is known. Things do
not come to him who waits in this day
and age and the man who goes after
things is the one who succeeds This
applies to communities as we'll as in
dividuals.

The harm is in thinking failure. A
man is going to do just what he
thinks. Ii is as easy to think success
as failure and with a determined
organization, each member thinking
success for the community and all
things tending for the betterment of
civic conditions, the community in
general is sure to be benefited.
