What did Governor Withycombe and Major Dech ex-
pect would be the reception of the state police in the
various communities of Oregon? Did they think that the
citizens of this state lawless that the regularly
elected and appointed peace officers would not be court

Major Dech has made report to the governor advising
the chief executive that complete harmony exists between
the state police and the Portland police department and
the federal troops Is something unusual that harmony
should exist between these bodies Of men? What there

GOLD MINES UNABLE
TO PAY FANCY PRICES
FOR THEIR LABOR

PIERRE, s. D., Nov. BLACK
Hills folks once proudly boosted
that they had one square mile which
was worth more than all the land
in South Dakota, east of the Mis-
souri, river. But times have
changed and the Black Hills now
are yielding only a small fraction of
the states wealth.
The sta bility of gold is the reason.
In the ole days this Interchangeable
value was the Black Hills insurance
policy. At present the fixed price
is the Black Hills greatest handi-
cap.
The state valuation last year
showed a total Of S1s5, 100000 in
productive wealth. The valuation
on gold mined I'm South Dakota was
placed at 100000 Since then the
labor shortage, the inability of the
gold mines TO pay fancy wages to
miners and the money Obtaina bic
elsewhere have hit the gold camps.
Copper and mine operators were
able to pay higher wages when the
price of their products was in
creased. The Black Hills gold is be
ing mined from the low grade ores.
A tremendous tonnage Of ore must
be handled and correspOndingly
large amount of labor is needed.
In addition to increased salary Re
mands the price Of materials re-
quired for producing gold have

INCREASED ACREAGE
OF CASTOR BEANS A
DIRECT WAR RESULT

DALLAS. Texas, Nov. 2.-The de-
mand for castor oil as an airplane
lubricant has resulted in a greatly
increased acreage of castor beans in
Texas. The oil is said to be su-
perior to any other lubricant, espe-
cially for high altitude flying.
A survey Of the castor bean acre
age in Texas just completed by rep
resentatives of the United States de-
partment of agriculture shows there
are more than 1900 acres in Gull
tivation and a good yield of the bean
is promised.
In the more southern part of the
state harvesting the crop will be
started soon. The government will
take over the entire production of
engine oil produced from the beans
Government experts said there
promised to be a big increase in
acreage next year.
