as to governors decision"
On Wednesday evening Mr. Sey-
mour Informed the Ell Centre Cham
Der of Commerce that the Associated
Chambers of Commerce of Imperial
county would turn the matter of the
entertainment Of the governor over
to the FL Centre Chamber on account
of the decision Of the governor which
would apparently make his reception
local affair and not county affair.
On November 4th, 1920, the fol
lowing telegram was sent by the Ell
Centro Elks baseball team by l. A.
Thomas to Commander Jones and to
the manager of the U.S.S. Brooklyn
baseball team at San Diego:
'In view of fact that Governor
Stephens refuses to speak at sched-
uIed ball game FL Centre November
7th, game between L. S. Battleship
Brooklyn and FL Centre Elks called
off. Failure of governor to do SO
will lessen attendance that we cannot
afford expense necessary to be IN
Cured in bringing Brooklyn team
over. Therefore this is to notify you
that Sunday game between Brooklyn
and FL Centre teams cancelled. Re
gret having take this action. Will
cndcavor arrange for game some
time in future"
We believe that this statement
clearly sets forth the stand OF the AS
sociated Chambers of Commerce IN
this matter. 1t is to be distinctly
understood that no plans were closed
without having first met he approval
of he naval officers in charge, and
that it is upon their approval that
the program as outlined was deter
mined upon.
In conclusion wish to state that
there will not be any publls luncheon
nor any base ball game on Sunday,
November 7th.

On November 3rd, 1920, Mr.. Sey-
mour discussed the matter with Frank
D. Hevener, president of the Asso--
ciated Chambers of commerce, and
the following telegram was approved
and forwarded to Commander Jones:
Acting On personal suggestions

"It is also suggested that the

On Tuesday, November 2, 1920,

''The Kantishna district is there 1t is going to be the big camp for sGke small man as we'll as the com. pany. The district has not been scratched and there is plenty of room for all who go there this yea ! am no boomer. I only speak the facts. There are both placer and quartz ready to be located. It is all rich on both sides of the divide, which seems itself to be a regular fountain-head of gold and silver"
 Thus spoke Billy Taylor, Kantish- n2, Cldtimer and mountain climber, to a representative of 3 Seattle news paper, on the occasion of his recent trip to the states.
 "The Kantishna district is about 100 miles square" he explained. "The trail is hit from Lignite, on the con- strUcted part of the Nenana division of the government railroad. Across forty miles of country where the only railroad construction would be the placing of the ties, the laying of rails and a little bal1asting, you strike the beginning of the district. From there to the Alaska range the rich country abounds. Would you be- 1ieve it, that three men, since 1895, have been taking their grub5takes out from a patch of placer ground hardly 200 feet square? We'll, they have and they are hanging on to their claims on Glacier creek until they can get hydraulic machinery.
 Others have just been picking and shoveling dirt into sluice boxes since 1905 from even a smaller area of ground and getting their grub stakes. Men in that district have been living on the game for years and taking out sufficient gold to take to the nearest trading post and get their supplies of other grub. They have been waiting for the government to do something, and now this dream seems soon to be realized.
 F'The Mt Mckinley Gold Placer Mining company has staked many of the quartz claims, as we'll as having placer property. We have quartz property on Crevace creek to the headwaters and on Slate creek to FL dorado We have 13O claims under
