"clean up the Emerald ISLE and that

Ireland and right her wrongs, and If
he feels compelled to defend the gov

his course will be generally justified.
Throughout the world the real friends
of Ireland who have been watching
her struggle with interest and concern
will regret deeply the irreconcilability
OF her leaders. Already the British
are preparing for a possible resump-

ARMY TO CUT

WASHINGTON. June 7 Omitted
Press) army of 100000 farm

Department
This summers harvest, it is hop

the farmers buying powers by 80 per
cent.
Wheat for which farmers now re-
ceive an average of s1.1O a bushel
will go to higher levels during the
summer and fall, officials forecast
The emergency tariff law is expect
ed to accomplish this. other fac
tors are lowering freight rates and

SEARCH CANADA
FOR LOST RIVER
Prospectors Out6tting at
Edmonton For Long
Journey
LOCALITY is KNOWN
TO ONLY FEW

EDMONTON. Alta. June t.
Search for lost rivera river Of
gold will be undertaken this year
by several prospectors, including old
timers from the Yukon and Alaska
who are now here Quitting for the
long Journey into the north country.
This lost river bed, where the Peace
River once flowed. is somewhere in
the big bend of the Peace, bisected
by a line drawn from Fort St. John
to the mouth OF the Battle River.
Some years ago an Indian brought
into Fort St John a fair sized gold
nugget which. according to the tale
told by old-timers of the north, he
discovered in a stream in the coun-
try to the northeast Of the post.
Soon after this an old trapper, a
white man. who made Fort St John
his headquarters, came into the fort
with a quantity of coarse gold which
he had washed from some stream in
similar direction to that from
which the Indian hailed.
He never visited his trap lines af-
ter this. living on the fat of the land
in carefree idleness at the post. He
often disappeared whenever his sup
plies of necessaries ran low, and
would he away for a few days al
ways returning with a fresh supply
of gold.
This aged trapper lived in this
manner for a number of years. He
died, as many trappers and north
country men have. on the trail. His
body was found frozen. With him
went his secret. he never having told
to anyone the location Of his find.
The books of the Hudson Bay Com
pany stil contain a large credit ac-
count in the name OF the old trapper.
Mortimer, who tell the story OF
the mystic El Dorado north of the
Peace. declare that the~gold was
only available after a heavy fall of
snow, with which the old fellow ap-
parently washed his mineral. From
an ANALYSIS of the circumstances gem
orally it is thought that the place
from which the gold was taken was
some old river bed where the Peace
once flowed but whether the story
is correct or not remains to be prov
ed
Prospectors. however, are putting
up good money to test the truth of
the theory that the precious metal
does exist somewhere 70 the north
of Clear Hills in large quantities.
