SOUNDS A WARNING
TO JAPAN BECAUSE
OF NAVY PROGRAM

Toxic, Dec. 20.-The American naval
expansion program was the subject of
lecture delivered recently before the
National Defense association by Com
mander Sosaburo Takahashi, mem
Der of the naval staff board.
The newspapers quote Commander
Takahashi as expressing the opinion
that the much alked-of American
Japanese war was illuBory and a mat :
ter of impossibility, but as holding
that it was greater illusion to take
an optimistic view of Americas pol
icy of preparedness. The speak er
thought 1t dangerous to take an easy
view of American naval expansion and
emphatically laid stress on the inn
portance Of the expansion OF the i'm
perial navy with a view to keep in pace
with American preparedness.

LONG LEGAL BATTLE
OVER MOBB FORTUNE
IN ENGLAND TO END

London. Dec. 20.-LegaI wrangline
which has been going on for 80 years
over John Mobbs' millions will be
ended next spring with the sale at auc-
ton here of the immense properties
which have caused so many heart
burnings.
Mobbs' millions have for nearly Il
century been sittering bubble to
hundreds of "rightGul heirs" who have
either turned up in quest OF them or
the large fees.
John Mohbs WAS a Northampton
shire eeachman. In 1867 he married
the daughter of his old master, a rich
London distiller. and thus became the
owner of large agricultural estate
in the then outskirts of London.
Mobbs. granted leases improvidentlN
over the greater part of the estate,
and then mortgaged the whole thing to
Il merchant named Sturt. The greater
part OF the Mobbs meadows thus fell
into the hands of the Sturts, the head
of whom is now Lord Abingdon.
Many OF the original leases did not
expire until 1870 and there was then
great reopenng of the legal hostili-
ties. The attempts to regain the prop
erty for the descendants of Mobbs al
waNs, failed however. although there

MOODY KNOWS OF
NO OPPOSITION IN
HIS HOME COUNTY

Adjutant General c. S. Moody, who
it was announced some time ago was a
candidate for speaker of the next
house of representatives, took occasion
to enter a denial today to the state
ment in the Pend Oreille Review,
published by George r. Barker, secre-
tary Of state, that fight had developed
in Bonner county against his candidacy
for speaker and that the Bonner county
delegation would be divided against
him.
Bonner county went Democratic at
the last election. Adjltant General
Moody was elected a member of the
house of representatives. Later ne
announced his candidacy for speaker.
The report published in the Review
was to the effect that General Moody
was called to Bonner bounty on his
recent trip because of fight that had
developed in the Bonner county dele
cation. Senator Jackson and Repre-
sentative Beecher Hitchcock standing
out against him.
II was also claimed in the same re-
port that County Commissioner Nc
Bride Vas a candidate for warden OF
the state penitentiary and that be-
cause Moody and Mcbride were from
the same county, and both could not
be recognized, Mcbride was also
against the adjutant generals candi-
dacy. Mr.. Moody declared that the re
port was without foundation.
The entire story is made out of
whole cloth, said General Moody. so
far as tho Standpoint conference is
concerned it was harmonious in every
respect. If Mr.. Mcbride is candidate
for warden of the state penitentiary,
he has never said SO to me-"

MINING INSPECTOR
TELLS OF ACTIVITY
IN NORTHERN IDAHO

Robert y. Bell. state mine inspec-
tor. is back in Boise after an extended
inspection trip in northern Idaho,
where he spent the greater part of his
time inspecting the larger mining
properties of the Occur d'Alenes. He
found the panhandle section very pros
porous. This is especially true, he
said, in the Occur d'Alene district, in
spite OF the fact that a number of the
large properties we're forced to close
down for some time owing to under
ground, smelter and mill difficulties.
While inspecting some of the levels
after long drives through the snow,

1t was learned from Mr.. Bell that

ties to a great extent have been very
profitable, the source of the metal sup
ply appears to be more permanent
than ever and some of the mines have
sunk to a great depth in their work

Inspector Bell was keenly interested
in the development progress of the year
that has been made at Pine Creek in
the Prichard formation. This district
now has four mines that give definite
evidence of permanancy and important
tonnage capacity with further develop
ment.
The inspection of the Occur d'Alene
properties was late this year. Inspector
Bell required data for his annual re-
port the first of the year. 1t will show
a marked increase in the total value
of metals.
