GOOD NEWS FROM TOLOyANA

BROOKS. - The most recent en- cOuragement in this district is the discovery by N. A. Brown and George Kilmar of pay on Lucky gulch, at the head of LivengOod creek. It appears to be an old lake bottom. Bones, teeth and musk OK head were found in their drift. A we'll preserved tree, 30 feet in length, was taken from the shaft. The tree was standing up- right. The ground is lO5 feet deep ard pay is as good as that found on any of the claims toward tha upper end of the creek.
 The operators are still cross-cutting the claim to determine the vo,ume of the pay.
 With plenty water, things are looking brighter here at present. Boats are arriving at West Fork every day with freight relieving the situa- tiOn.-News-Miner.

SHADES OF ALL PIONEERS

NENANA, Aug. 22.-Shades of all pioneers, gone but not forgotten! If they could only see the dimes, nickels and pennies floating around this town, they would turn over in their graves and thank the Angel of Night that had touched them with his magic wand to transfer them to another world.
 Mind, the nickles, pennies and dimes are not common yet; just used among the Best people, but like all things started for the benefit of the select few, they are beginning to circulate and indications are that it will be inn possible to drive them out of the cOun- try, once they get a start. - News Miner,

GERMANY'S JABBERWORK
 MARKET HITS THE SKIDS

LONDON, Sept. 2O.-Germany's Jabberwork market has hit the skids.
 "The birds and the beasts were there" when General Shuts grabbed most of German East Africa and the Kaiser's colonials fled.
 A blood sweating behemOth doesn't give a darn what flag flies on his hunting ground. Neither does dix dak or a whiffenpoof or man eating piffik. So Germany is cut off from her geological supply.
 The first shipload of animals is here from the new British territory today, consigned to E. H. BOstock.
 Twenty-Five balloons gOOse-stepped at leash about the docks with still a shadow of German accent in their chatter. Six pOrcupines with fixed i.bayonets held a small hallow square and 400 birds screeched while pair of secretary birds made notes for ref erence.
 "The Germans will never regain their animal trade" said BostOck t'- day,

BRITISH BLACKLIST AND
WORRY AMERICt
By JOHN H. HEARLEY

Special to Gateway by United Press)
 ROME, Sept. IA. - British black lists and other economic and industrial measures needn't worry American business men," said Clarence w. Moonmaw, European investigator of markets for the U. s. Department of Agriculture, here today.
 Moomaw's investigations in Eng land, France, Switzerland and ltaIy are the basis for his statement. Later he will visit Russia, Scandin- avian countries and Spain.
 Moomaw is one of many agents iI Europe making plans to protect Amcrca's fo:ure commercial relations with Europe. Special invcstiga ion is being mace into the exportation of American grains, livestock and cotton.
 The department probably will es- tablish permanent agencies in the principal European cities after the war to see that American interests are protected and furthered.
 Plans are being made to overcome Englands discriminatory freight rates in favor of herself and her Allies and to the disadvantage of enemy and neutral nations. It is said that now, because the grain must be shipped in British bottoms, wheat bought at one price in the United States is sold to Britain and her allies by British car riers at five times less than it is sold to Switzerland and other neutra' countries.
 An attempt is being made to estab- fish direct trade relations between the United States and Inly. As it now is, Italy must buy, for instance, all her cotton through Liverpool agents, thus permitting the British to control the Italian-American trade.
 The secret of how America is to overcome these difficulties, at least in part, is the investment of American capital in European countries and the establishment of American banking facilities. The National City bank of New York already has taken steps in this direction in Milan and Genoa.
 The Americans are the only people the Italians do not fear politically. Before the war Germany was a big factor in Italys commercial life. The Italians say it never will be so again.
 Italy now really is a commercial orphan, inasmuch as many Italians 1 fail to see any advantage in further indebtedness to the British,
