earthquake or the world might come to an end; we have even to take la chance on that. Any sensible person can readily understand what S10 per ounce will mean to such mines as the United Eastern and Tom Reed at Oatman. From an in- vestment standpoint the stock of these companies would be immedi- ately worth 50 percent more than it is today, not to mention the fact of adding new life to the mines, by putting them in position to mine and mill ore that they cannot afford to handle at the present time.
 The careful investors are waking up to the gold situation. That was very plain in Los Angeles a few days ago, when one of the promi- nent Oatman prospects showed prom ise of making a new mine. The way the stock was snapped up complete ly surprised the Los Angeles brok- CTS. People who had never bought gold stocks were writing checks for good-sized blocks of stock The brokers had forgotten that the gold question has been before the Am erican people for the past two years. They have talked about it. read about it., and wondered when there would be another gold mine discov- cred, and it is only reasonable to assume that a great many of these people have made up their minds. They are going to be in on the next new mine if possible

PAPER
 PREDICTS BOOM
 IN MINING TOWN

The greatest mining boom the country has ever known-the mad dest rush for gold in history, and the biggest silver scramble ever wit messed by man is coming soon, says the Oatman (Arizona) Miner. Age old supply and demand says SO. Gold and silver are the two things that are in greatest demand, and of which there is the smallest relative supply. Every oldtimer who knows the mining game and has the facul- | ty for remembering what has gone ! before, will admit to himself that some morning we are going to wake up to redhot mining boom. It will come suddenly, as it always has, but just now the things that accu- mulate to bring it about are slowly, quietly and surely working out to- wards the eventual excitement.
 Brokers, leading mining operators, bankers and big business men have their scouts out for likely-looking de- veloped or partly developed mines, oldtime bonanzas of other days and promising prospects of today. Ev- cry miner who ever was miner, every man who knows how to scout for mining property, and every feI- low who has his eye on the rich reward to be had in finding mines Is busy on the job. These men all know that the worldwide demand must be filled by someone, and the ready and high priced market is beg ging for gold and silver.
 There is a powerful organization at work preparing to demand legis- lative action placing a special tax ion all new gold. The miners well know that the public will soon learn that somebody has got to produce these metals, and the general public will want to share in the profits of the business. When a miner can se- cure capital to develop a prospect, he is not going to waste any time in seeking the said prospect.
 In the bill which is to be present. ed to Congress it is proposed to impose tax of 50 cents per penny weight of fine gold contained in all articles which may be sold on and after May 1, 1920. From this fund the producer of the new gold ounce will receive on and after the same date a S1O premium per ounce to compensate TOT the increased cost or production. The gold miners of California. hoping that favorable ac- tion will soon be taken on this mea- sure, are now getting ready to open jup a great many of the oldtime bonanza gold mines, and are also lpaying big figures for promising properties in the course of develop ment. .:.. Gold and silver are wanted every where, and they will be wanted more and more every day-there is no escape. Of course, nothing is abso- lutely sure-there might be an

Prospect0rs Farmers Trappers Tourists
 The Nenana district offers oppor- tunities for prospecting, farming, and trapping that are unequaled in any other section of Alaska.
 Gold placers of known value, close to Nenana, are producing annually sub- stantial amounts, and there are scores of streams within the district on which little or no prospecting has been done. These streams, until short time ago almost inaccessible, are now easily reached by means of the new Govern Il, ment Railroad, and undoubtedly soon il III will be the scene of much mining ac- HI HI tivity. HI Farming in the Nenana district has the advantage of growing season fully ten days longer than that of any other section of Interior Alaska. There is MI much desirable land in the district open III to homesteaders, and marketing poss- LII bilities are being expanded steadily. HI III Fur-bearing animals of the Nenana HI III and adjacent districts are noted for the HI HI fine quality of their fur, and trappers III annually bring large numbers of pelts HI III to Nenana and receive for them higher prices than are obtained for the average IN furs of other districts. III
 Game of all kinds abounds in the Nenana district, there are scores of trout streams easy of access, and the scenic wonders of the district are un- surpassed. The district is the natural gateway to Mt. Mckinley National Park, and close to Nenana may be viewed the largest coal lodges in the world

This opened the real owners lips. and
he told more than one about the shabby
way he had been treated by the false
friend.
My only interest in the matter Is the
uplift Of dog shows. I am not engaged
in detective work for the American Ken
mel Club. but now I have called atten-
ton 10 the smoke. some of its experts
should be able to spot the flame. 1t is
a poor policy in any breed TO permit
such shifts OF alleged ownership for a

been done before at this same specially

forts, like most other radical movements,
came in for some ridicule and advice
that the scheme never would be sue
cess. Nothing daunted by the taunts or
the sceptics, Gilbey kept plugging away
at his scheme, which slowly but surely
gained ground, 50 much so that in five
years the association was well under
way, daily coaxing new members TO the
fold OF course there were regular polo
clubs in England and Ireland before the
advent of Gilbey's plan, and they fell IN
line when the regular organization made
its appearance.
The method bore such good fruit that
seven years after its formation In 1906
there were no less than sixty-ive clubs
in the British Isles, forty-three In Eng
land. sixteenuin Ireland and one in Scot
land. This number was nearly doubled
up to 1914 when the war broke out. on
account OF the drain of men and ponies
number Of the English clubs went out

those which did happen 70 lapse are
preparing 70 reorganlze and will be seen
again on the field Of play.
In order to avoid as much cost as
possible the county championships are
played In sections. and the finals take
place at some central point easily Access
sble to both teams. Quite often the big
finals have been played at Nottingham
and at times they have been played at
Eden Park The cost OF playing State
championships in America would be
much greater, of course, but ties could
be played off so that the expense could
be greatly reduced.

Garden show was perhaps the biggest
thing hackney pony has ever done
to demonstrate the adaptability Of the
breed for saddle purposes. The idea
that a green two-year-old could go into
the leading horse show of the country
and defeat all Corners including the
mare that had twice won the saddle
championship for ponies at the Garden,
staggered the talent and won the ad-
miration of all horsemen. regardless Of
the fact that her age had been misrepre-
sented, her registered name changed
and her identity concealed in order to
show her against the mature ponies.
III she had been entered only where she
belonged. In the class for children's sad
die ponies OF any age, she might have
won the championship. AS IL was, the
association suspended her after her age
and identity became known. and she was
thus barred from further competition.

sister. Belle Fern Leopardess. was ex-
hibited at the Garden by Mr.. Hancher,
who won six ribbons In the six classes
in which his ponies were shown.
Several Western exhibitors who took
part in the recent National Horse Show
shipped TO Chicago last week for the
indoor horse show which opens to-
morrow In connection with the Interna-
tional Live Stock Exposition at the
Union Stock Yards. Professor c. F..
Curtiss, one OF the judges of hackneys
at the Garden, is president OF the big
Chicago show.
Professor Curtiss and Robert Garham
caused some criticism among breeders
when they gave the championship
prize for hackney stations to William
II. Moore's two-year-old Seaton seaton
at the Garden show. Many horsemen
who admired the son Nf Marlboro and
Lady Seaton contend that colt of this
age, however good he may be, is too
young for a champion, the reason being
that some of the best o-year-olds do
not develop into the best horses when
OF mature age.
More than one ribbon winner In
classes for registered hackneys at the
Garden could not be found in the stud
book. and this was true in some other
divisions of the show. La La Lucille,
entered in the class for Arabian brood
mares, is daughter of the trotting
stallion King David. 2:21%. by May

In the addition OF polo tournament

good point toward the furtherance Of

thousands of persons who never dreamed
of what the game looked like. and IL

minute spell of action daily not possible
from any other item on the catalogue.
AS a general rule the ordinary spec
tator at the horse show is attracted
because of the elaborate notices of the
equipages displayed in the newspapers,
and the showing of horses to gigs or
rumbles in the ring is seemingly
mystery. With the polo IL was differ

Room for state Associations.

With the cooperation OF the army It
would be possible within a few years to
make polo immensely popular all over
the United States. The plan IS to for
mulate State associations much on the
same basis as the county polo associa-
tions OF England, Ireland and Scotland
Not only would these State associations
bring out the latent element but they
would open up a new field for the de-
velopmentsrof ponies. Each season a
State championship could be held. and
then, If IL were found necessary. the
States could play against each other
for the championship of America
The lesson taught by the formation OF
the county associations In England Is
worthy of being copied on this side Of
the water. In the closing years OF the
last century an enthusiast named Tres

ciation and naturally enough his first e.
