SAY LOST GOLO MINE FOUND
 IN IDAHO
CBy Associated PressD

N6y ASSOClaleQ PTeSSD
 SPOKANE, Dec. 29. - The Host gold mine of the Upper Salmon river district of Idaho, source for years of mysterious wealth of its original dis coverers and cause of the death of one of them, and the object of a 20 years fruitless search by their "lega- tee," has been rediscovered, accord ing to a report reaching here.
 For many years two prospectors named Hughes and Swan went every spring on a mysterious journey into the hills of Central Idaho, and every fall returned with quantities of raw gold which made them the envied of every miner to whose ears word of their great good fortune had come. So sIillful, however, were they in eluding pudsuit upon their journeys into the hills, that the secret of the location of the treasure-laden quartz veins remained their own.
 Then one fall Hughes, perhaps as a result of his summers work in the mine, fell sick, and Swan, his partner, left alone next spring on the annual pilgrimage to the source of their wealth. Travelling along, again he eluded pursuit, but he was not so for tunate on his return journey, for he was waylaid, murdered and robbed of his summers toll in the hidden mine.
 That was the last, until few days ago, of the rich spells removed from the famous mine. Hughes, jealously guarding the secret of the hidden wealth, against the day when he should recover his health and con- tinue its exploitation, died at length in poverty in this city.
 Shortly before he died, however. he endeavored to give his golden secret to C. H. Rolf, a former Spokane po- liceman who had befriended him. With his failing strength he drew a crude map of its location, as nearly as he could remember 1t, and gave 1t to Rolf with directions for finding the treasure.
 Practically every summer since then Rolf has spent i'll a fruitless search for the lost mine For twenty years he has continued his quest, but so inaccurate was the map that il never succeeded. Roff's last hunt for the mine was made last summer.
 The mine has been located, accord. ing to a report from Lewistown, Idaho, by two Jenson brothers, of! that city. It is declared to be on tributary canyon of Ramey creek, in the Upper Ealmon river district of Central Idaho. The ledge proper is declared to be from four to six feet vide, with a rich streak of quartz, in which the gold is easily visible to the naked eye, four to six inches in width. SSSSSSSSSCSSSSSS5CS SSSS Nenana, have been established re- gently, NJ. B. Summers, in charge of the service in Alaska, reported on his return from tour of inspection in the interior.

LABOR FINDS FAULT WITH COMMITTEE
 OF WILSON
CBy Associated PressJ

WASHINGTON, Dec. %. = Sug-
 gestions of the presidents industrial conference for the settlement of con- f1icts between employers and em- ployes, drew fire today from organ
 ized labor in the first of the public discussions invited by the commis- sion in it's report published today.
 Samuel Gompers, president of the American Federation of Labor, said the failure of the conference to recog- aize definitely the organizations of labor-trade unions-as the basis for representation was a fatal omission, while Frank Morrison. secretary of the federation, noting the absence of reference by the conference to col lective bargaining or the necessity of organizations of workers, said any one who would avert or postpone in dustrial conflict could not ignore these principles.
 MT. Gompers declared the com mission should reconsider the ques- ton of definite recognition of trades unions-"in order to make possible the confidence and cooperation of wage earners, which can be express ed only through organizations of, their own making" !
 Any plan to establish or maintain like fair relations between workers and employers must avoid compulsory features.
 Any proposal for compulsory labor is repugnant to American sov- ereignty and citizenship"
