TOKYO REPORTS OPPOSITION ID
 SIBERIAN PLAN

TOKIO-Apparent tendency by Japanese business men to oppose in-
 tervention in Siberia has been re- flected in business generally here. The stock market has been oppressed with the idea of Siberian mobiliza- tion. Trading has fallen off and many shares have weakened. At times when it appeared that Japan had at least temporarily tabled the intervention question the market has rallied, becoming active with short covering, but the general investment public has remained strictly cautious showing disposition to sell at advanc- ing prices.
 Late in June the foreign trade fell off, the United States exten- sion of it's lists or restricted imports virtually stopped Japan's growing shipment of skins and feathers. The American trade ban was enlarged so as to stop also Manila's export of hemp to Japan. If this is rigidly enforced Japan's braid industry will be reduced to an insignificant posi- tion and Great Britain's removal of it's ban on hemp braids would come to naught.
 Trade with Asiatic Russia was made possible by the reopening of the Siberian border, and match stick importers have already reported their intention of buying afresh there, while bean oil men had a brighter prospect for their buying of soya beans.
 The China trade has remained slack. The Japanese Cotton Spin ners' Association, for instance, re- ported that during ten days Japan slipped 1909 bales less of yarns to China and other Oriental points. Trade with British India also has been slack.
 The tonnage question and Ameri- ca's new railway rates also have caused anxiety in the business world. Oil men, grain pcop.e and others say that the high freight costs and the difficulty in obtaining cargo space have interfered seriously with their business, these factors combin- ing adversely with kindred commerce restrictions adopted by England, America and other countries. IT, these circumstances Frances pur- chase of muslin and Manchurian flour, Latin Americas increasing business and other circumstances fur nished scarcely any consolation to the business community.
 Notwithstanding governmental ef- forts to check the soaring cost of living. conditions have hardly inn proved. Not only the fertilizer trade but the flour market have been prey to spectators manipulation, ], which lately has become greatly sagnified with the concentration ot capital in big firms.

THAT GOLD BONUS

Like nearly all of the more i'm portant reforms advocated for the betterment of conditions in Alaska, including the government railroad project, the present agitation at Washington, in the gold producing states of the West and in Alaska, for a government bonus on gold, had its origination in Alaska. Insofar as the News has been able to ascer- tain, United States Commissioner R. s. Mcdonald, of Nenana, first called the attention of Alaskans to the necessity of securing federal re- lief for our gold miners, it having occurred to him more than year ago that such action as is now being advocated would be necessary not only to stimulate gold production in Alaska, but also to insure an unin- tSiiuPlCu anu piSHtll LII ouPply VI gold in the United States treasury
 MT. Mcdonald called the matter to the attention of the public, through the columns of the News-Miner year ago this month, on August 24, 1917, to be exact, and it was through his efforts that the matter later was taken up by the Fairbanks Commer- cial club. MT. Mcdonald also called the matter to the attention of the Nenana Commercial club soon after his arrival in Nenana.
 The gold bonus question is now being strongly advocated by Dele gate Sulzer, practically all Alaskan civic organizations, by the press of Alaska and by numerous mining organizations throughout the West ern states, with the result that .Con- gress may be induced to provide the needed relief before the end of :he present session.
 The argument referred to, which was published last August, is as follows:
 The government of the United States is urging upon gold mining nnaratnrS tha of their output to the limit, .nd Lases Its plea on patriotic gro Indt. Int the operators, the world over, are finding it impossible to extract gold at profit with the prices of SUD- plies, machinery, tools and other es- sentlals In many cases many hundred per cent higher than when their op- eratlons were initiated. Cyanide, used in great quantities in gold re- duction, has advanced from 34 cents to $2.75; powder has jumped sev- eral hundred per cent; steel similarly
 
 shortage. Machinery in many cases IS off the market and when procur- able costs vastly higher than for for merly.
 Most of the larger gold producing plants of the world have operated for many years on very small mar 1 gin of profit, and the tremendously 1 Increased cost of production, in the face of the inflexible sale price of !! raw gold, has entirely, or nearly so wiped out that margin. It would seem therefore, IF THE GOLD IS ACTUALLY NEEDED, some higher price for it in its raw state, or a bonus, will have to be paid before any will be mined. During the Civil War, when the New York banks suspended specie payments, gold sold as high as 285 and a certain prem ium was maintained until 1878, when gold dropped from 102 to its present level of 100.
 With this condition and the need for a remedy in mind Fairbo nksan has suggested to the Commercial Club that they communicate with .

fine WORK DONE
LADIES' Of FLETCHER

In the spring of 1917 a community
canning club was organized and a
cannery was erected on the main
street of Fletcher. This was open
every day in the week except Mon
day and Saturday, with competent
women in charge each day. The
women of the community brought
their fruit and vegetables here to can
them. We have no record of the
number of cans filled during the sum-
mer. The two thousand tin cans
bought by the club were filled long
before the close of the season. Quite
a little was done toward the c~onserva-
| ton of food.
In the early summer of 1917 an
auxiliary of the Hendersonville chap
ter of the Red Cross was organized.
In part we organized before Hender-
sonville had a chapter and intended
to be an auxiliary of the AshevilIe
chapter, but waited for Henderson
vile to organize so hat we could be-
long to a home county. During the
summer we raised $57:46 in funds
and quite a little sewing. In the
Christmas drive we raised our mem
bership to seventy-one. For several
months we have been sewing one af-
ternoon each week and averaged two
dozen bed shirts a week. We have
also done quite a good deal of knit
ting.
In our township we have a commit
tee in charge of the sale of thrift
stamps. On this committee we have
a woman representative from the
Red Cross and one from the Woman's
B~etterment, besides the lady school
teacher of the township. The Wo-
mans Betterment has bought two War
Saving certificates and each member
has pledged herself to buy all that
she can during the year. They are
to earn this money themselves in some
way. At a late meeting they re-
ported that they had earned money
for this purpose by selling tatting
embroidery, by doing dress making,
by selling honey, eggs, butter, milk,
vegetables. One woman had earned
money by doing some work in book
keeping for one of the local stores.
Besides their work in buying Thrift
Stamps and promoting the sale of
them the Woman's- Betterment has
made several layettes for the Bel
! GUM refuge babies.
We hope to do more during the
canning season.
