The last train reached Tun- nel station and was delayed Rotaries and a large gang of men are working overtime to get the track in shape for travel. In addition to heavy snow fall and a thaw, the melted snow froze, forming a glacier over the rails. Everything possible was done to eX- pedite the train movement, and now the tracks are clear again

 A number of Anchorage men who stampeded to the Portland canal dis. trict have joined in locating a group of lode claims on Texas creek, a tribu, tary of the Salmon river, on the Amer. | ican side of the boundary line. Assays from samples give as high as $48 per ton and better than $100 in silver. The locators found the prospect too late to do any work this year, but will start development when the snow goes of in the spring. Among the locators are Jack Sutherland, Captain Max Nelson Billie Newell, George Foy, F. E. Kruse Thomas Harrington and Blondy Charl ton. Knowledge of the prospect was gained from an Indian packer who has lived in the country for a long time The boys treated him right by locating him in on the group

STRINGTOWN SWEPT
BY THURSDAYS WIND

Luck was with Stringtown Thurs
day when the ''twister," which die
damage in and near Conway, struck
there, according to W. l.. Smith. He
says the tornado hit squarely across
this community from the west, but
took path which caused it to miss
every house, uprooting trees and
blowing down fences in a patch about
so yards wide. Its force was SO
great, Mr.. Smith said, that dirt to
the depth of which it was plowed
was gathered up and carried along in
its grasp. A barn on the place of j
NJ. Hughes was blown over, the big
gest piece of damage in it's path. A
heavy rain followed the wind.
Orchards also were damaged wher
struck by the wind. Mr.. Smith said
the tornado was seen gathering oven
Pickles Gap and that it moved east
across Stringtown and over the farm
of Don Johnson, hitting the range of
mountains to the east and going out
along its course. When they saw il
forming, Mr.. Smith made ready for
the storm, and had his family in the
storm cellar when the wind hit.

MAY NEED ENTIRE
ROOF WORKED OVER

Further examination of the roof of
the State Normal administration build
ing, damaged in the heavy wind Tues
day, reveals breaks and torn places
which may require it being worked en-
tirely over. From appearances, the
wind, gathering inside the building,
forced up the shiplap foundation of
the roof and when the pressure was
withdrawn, the paper composition on
the outside was punctured by hume
rous nail heads pulled up by the force
of the wind and left up when the
boards settled back. Examination of
the roof was made yesterday.
Corn probably sustained more dam
age than any other crop in the coun-
ty, from the effects of the wind. The
stalks were blown over, and some re-
sidents complain that after they had
Strengthened them Thursday morning
a wind from the opposite direction
forced them down the other way.

GASOLINE MOVES UP
ONE CENT IN PRICE

Gasoline advanced another cent in
price today, now being 81 cents per
gallon.
Explaining why gasoline prices must
be advanced, THE Lamp" a publ
cation by the Standard Oil Company
states that increased use of crude
oil derivaties, of which gasoline is
one, has been faster than the increase
in production, forcing up the price of
crude oil and consequently gasoline
The output of crude oil has been
doubled ten times, this article says
but the number of oil burning We
hlcles has been doubled Is times dur
ing the same period. Another element
in the cost is the necessity for drilling
wells to lower strata to increase pro
duction, the depth now being $500 feet
as compared with 100 feet until re.
Gently Fields opened in Texas and
Louisiana have failed to supply crude
oil in quantities sufficient to reduce
the market.

That was untrue, and | demand of
Kirby to tell me now who made a
statement of that kind to him. Kirby

rounding the meat packers" letter is
convincing OF its genulneness, Mr..
Caraway said. Even his name is not
spelled correctly, and there is no man
living who lever said or will now say
that there is a word of truth in that
alleged letter" He laid emphasis up
on two points. First, the socalled
letter, was considered in a committee
meeting one year before the date of
the alleged letter, seven of it's mem
bers voting to report it favorably.
Comparison with the Congressional
Directory, Mr. Caraway said, discloses
that the names of the Democratic
members of the committee were taken
in their order and affixed to the let
ter. The first man named, he said,
was Representative Webb of North
Carolina, later appointed by President
Wilson to federal bench in North Car

the senate with Senator Kirby voting
! for the confirmation. He declared
that the letter was first produced by
a government employee named Haney,
who has later been discharged for dis
honorable conduct Mr.. Caraway also
told of his own appearance before the

MOVE TO ALTER
NOMINEE RULE
{By United Press)

San Francisco, June ia deter
mined fight to force the Democratic
national convention to change its rule
requiring it's nominees to be selected
by two-thirds majority votes, seems
we'll under way here, despite the OPP
position of National Chairman Homer
S. Cummings and other Democratic
leaders. Chairman Cummings belives
that the OPPOSITION will be able to de-
feat the movement.
William J. Bryan is the delegate to
whom these favoring the change look
for leadership. They argue that the
Democratic party should follow the
same rule as the Republicans, who
require only majority vote for the
selection of nominees.
The Democratic national committee
will tomorrow begin hearings of con-
tested seats. Opposing delegates from
Missouri will be first heard by the
credentials committee.

JUDGMENT, WE'LL SAY

Many reasons have been given by
citizens of the county for their sub
scriptions to the Log Cabin Democrat,
but 0. W. Harris of near Vilonia had
novel one today when he entered
his subscription for one year. Mr..
Harris said that he intended to get
along without the paper, but that his
wife informed him when he left home,
he had better subscribe for the Log
Cabin Democrat, if he wished to stay
with her" Apparently, Mr.. Harris
did so wish, and the paper will be in
their home for the next II months.

RICHLAND DEPT.

-
At meeting of the water users on
the project Monday night the matter
of assessing the power charges under
pumps I and alike over all lands in
the district was taken up and dis
cussed fully. Under present condi-
tions lands under pumping plant
pays the regular gravity charge for
water and in addition must assume
the cost of the pumping necessary to
pump the water to their lands above
the canal. It is the plan of those who
called the meeting to have the pow
er assessment spread over all the
lands on the project so that gravity
land and pump land would pay the
same maintainence fee.
Of course, a mater of Importance
of this kind could not be threshed out
at any one meeting and would have
to be put up to vote of the people.
1t was the opinion of a number
present that the board of directors
of Richland Irrigation district should
publish the minutes of all their meet
ings in the newspaper as well as re-
ports covering such matters as are
of vital interest to the land holders
on the project. Meetings have been
open to the public in the past but few
have attended them and it was thought
that this method would give every
one chance to- know just what the
directors were doing.
