PLANT >UNEARTHED
 OLD SLEUTH


Through the efforts of Special Agent John Moe another "hootch" still is in possession of the federal authori- ties at Fairbanks and the owner thereof in the federal jail there await ing the pleasure of the officials.
 Wednesday evening Alphonse Bou- lay arrived in Fairbanks and about midnight was picked up on warrant sworn out by Agent Moe, charging him with violating the dry law. On being searched there was found in Boulay''s possession little less than quart of "moonshine" brew that was powerful in alcoholic content. Having his man safe under lock and key Agent Moe and Deputy J. c. Wood took an outo ride to the locality where the plant of the offender was believed to be. At the cabin was found quantity of alcohol and some coloring matter. Leaving the cabin the of ficers went obout a mile and quarter up Moose creek and there discovered the still. According to the officers it is a masterpiece for the production of "hootch" Made of the best copper throughout it represents consider able outlay of money and much in- genuity in it's construction. The still, worm, alcohol and other needed evi- dence was collected and brought to Fairbanks and placed in the care of the marshals office, to be produced when needed.
 This is the third still that Agent Moe has uncovered, two being in the Ruby section, and one of the offenders is now behind the bars doing time. The owner of the remaining still could not be found but the "hootch" factory was destroyed beyond all use. The agent, during the summer, will con- duct vigorous campaign to destroy every still in the Fourth division, and there are said to be many of them.

Hioh Reef Penetrated

St. Patrick creek in the Tanana valley, reports that Sherrard & Com pany will be sluicing in short time. This mining firm has penetrated the high reef they recently encountered at a depth of 100 feet and have landed on the pay in the old channel.
 In the near future good-sized crew of men will be put to work taking out the pay dirt, few minor preparations being the only delay. It is expected that the output from St. Patrick creek will be materially increased this year owing to the many new plants which will work, being the result of the drill prospecting which has been going on in that section for some time past.

Goldstream Is Active.

There is much activity on Gold stream, near Fairbanks. On IS Gus Peterson is running a tunnel and opening up for operating on a large scale the coming summer.

Fairbanks, has been closed down tenn owing to the low price of the metal it was not advisable to continue min ing the ore.
 The tungsten market on the outside has fallen rapidly and the present market price does not exceed $7.50 a unit. During the war the unit val uation was as high as $65. Several hundred tons of the ore was shipped from the mines of the interior and handsome returns realized by the shippers. Since the decline of the market but few of the properties have been worked.

SIuicina at Tolovana

From late arrival from Brooks 1t is learned that sluicing has com menced in the Tolovana, a general cleaning-up taking place among the miners who have out winter dumps. Some of the large dumps are being run through the boxes with water furnished by gravity and this method will be followed as long as sluice- head of water can be had. When the water runs shy pumping will be re- sorted to.
 Among the recent discoveries re- ported it is stated that Clarence Dor finger and Oscar Anderson have un- covered good pay and will soon put on a large force of men to take out the dirt. As soon as the hoist is work. ing sluicing operations will be com menced.

COURT READY
TO PROCEED
RIGHTS OF WAY TO BE SECURED
Construction Of Hood Riyer-M -MOsier High
way Near Bids to Be Opened
Next lueSday

As Judge Blowers expresses il, the
formal proceedings Of securing the
rights of way for the Hood Rive
Mosler extension Of the Highway will
be given the right Of way over all
other business 10y the county court at
its initial meeting for 1919 today. Dis
trict Attorney Derby will attend 10 the
session Of the court TO pass on all mat
tiers Of legal procedure
Fhe county court had begun securing
rights of way through condemnation
proceedings last summer. but the task
was dropped when the State Highway
Commission postponed the construction
of the link Of the Highway east of
here because Of the war.
J. Ii. Scott. engineer for the State
Highway department. was here last
week to 90 over the route of the ex-
tension with prospective bidders on
contracts for the construction of the
six mile unit Of the scenic thorough
fare. Bids on the contracts will be
opened by the State Highway Commits
sion next Tuesday.
In order that smaller contractors
may be given an opportunity to bid on
the work, the six mile unit has been
divided into three sections. The total
estimated cost Of the proposed new
section of the Highway reaches more
than $3.50. 900. Just this side of Mosier
it will be necessary to bore an OPEN
window tunnel similar to that at
Mitchells Point. Those who have been
over the route of the road between
here and Mosier say that the scenic
points made accessible will rival those
between here and Portland.
The contractor securing the unit of
the Highway lying just east of Hood
River will be asked to hasten the con-
struction of this end Of the road, which
will eliminate the old grade leading up
the east side Of Hood riveI and make
possible traffic of orchardsts over the
new link next summer.
Considerable interest is being dis
played by contractors of the Northwest
over the six mile stretch. Three of
the largest Portland contracting firms
have had representatives, making a
thorough investigation. These repre-
sentatiyes have dropped the hints that
they will bid on the entire six miles.
that is, that they will take all of the
construction work or none.
A representative of one of the Port
land concerns has said that he has
equipment and men available to begin
work on the new road within 10 days
after bids are let, and that, in case his
concern IS successful in getting the
bid, the work of opening up The six
mile link and eliminating the old road
over the mountain between here and

BRIDE BY PROXY
VISITS HOOD RIVER

After narrowly escaping with her
life in a series of thrilling experiences
with the British army in France in
l9l4-l5 l6, Mrs. W. d. Copper, of Lon
don, England, went through the more
thrilling experience of love at first
sight and became the bride, by proxy,
of an American soldier from this city
The pair met in Y. M. G. A. can
teen in London in August, 1917, and
through conversation learned that they
had been childhood friends in Kansas.
Three days after the meeting Sgt.
Copper was ordered to France, and for
the next 10 months was stationed at
Bordeaux. Correspondence was kept
up, and in October, 1917, first papers
of alliance were sent across the Eng
lish Channel. Six months later the
ceremony was finally completed.
Since the day Of the first meeting
however, Mr. and Mrs. Copper have
not seen each other. Sgt Copper is
still in France and his wife is visiting
his family in Portland. She was here
last week visiting his parents, Mr.. and
Mrs, j. W. Copper.

construction Of the scenic highway. In
this case Oregon viii expend like
sum.
Camps of surveying parties have
been located on the south side Of the
mountain. Local men, however, de
clare that it would be Impractical to
locate a construction camp there, be-
cause of the long distance necessary to
transport supplies by vehicle. In case
a camp is established in the Upper
Valley the supplies can be hauled on
the Mount Hood r. r. line to within
five miles of the camp.
