WILL NOT CLOSE UP
PUBLIC PLACES YET

meeting of members of the Hum
boldt county board of health was held
i District Attorney Powell's office at
IL o'clock this morning. to which all
physicians, school officials, teachers,
county commissioners, mayor and
city councilmen, and III. c. Oastler,
manager of the American theatre, had
been invited to discuss the question
of whether or not the schools of Win
nemucca and the American theatre, as
well as other public places where
crowds are likely to gather, should be
closed because of prevalence of the
disease la grippe, or influenza. The
action was taken upon initiative of
County Health officer Giroux as a
means of gaining a concensus of
opinion in the matter.
Twenty-eight cases of grippe have
been reported to the health officials.
most of which, all of the doctors were
of opinion, were very mild cases, none
being serious, as was the case last
winter. This number includes all o.
Humboldt county.
OF the twenty persons present at
the meeting this morning almost al
were of opinion the situation here is
nothing to be alarmed about and thai
the schools. churches and theatre
should not be closed. The wearing
of gauze masks was almost unanf-
mously condemned as being unsani-
tary and of no value as a preyenta-
tive of disease.
Contrary to the policy observed last
year it was decided that health off
GERS should not maintain secrecy as
to health conditions, but should pre-
pare an accurate statement of mum
ber of persons i'll, which statement
is to be given to the newspaper daily
with request that it be published.
1t was said that the situation is no
serious enough to warrant drastic
action and that the meeting was
called TO divide responsibility.

the profit there is in it, | don't be-
lieve the big jewellers or silversmths

credit the smaller dealer in metals
with this sort of thing"
The report of this situation follows
closely the discovery of a similar
state of affairs in Paris, where this
condition has reached a more ad-
yanced stage, partly on account of the
relatively large issue of paper money
and also on account of the exporting
of coins to be melted into bullion.
Silver is now quoted in New York
at $1.33 per ounce, the highest point
yet reached; and at this figure the
silver coin is worth considerably
more as metal than its exchange
value as currency.

STORY PROVES TO BE A JOKE
Especial Correspondence,

PARADISE VALLEY, January &c.
Applications for permits to range
stock on the forest reserve have
about been completed here under the
direction OF Ranger Paul Travis.
There is big decrease in the number
of animals to be grazed over the num-
Der few years ago. Many farmers
here claim that it does not pay to
raise cattle and feed in the winter
time, if they can sell their hay at as
much as $12 ton. This year prac-
tically all the hay for sale in the val
ley found ready market at sis ton
They say with increased restrictions
and curtailment of grazing privileges
on the forest reserve, together with
the increased taxes on stock cattle
that they cannot realize as much as
$12 ton for hay when fed to stock.
There is some talk here of asking the
forest service for ruling on the
question of ranchers Withdrawing all
cattle from districts of this forest
and not having the grazing privilege
revoked by reason of such withdrawal.
Under present rules grazing privi-
lege not utilized for two successive
years is lost.
