ty-fve per cent of the coal tonnage in
the Pittsburgh district, who have
signed agreements based on the Cleve-
land conference Of the United Mine
Workers, can supply about $4,000 tons
of coal weekly. but this will not have
much effect on the steel industry in
this district.
None Of the United States Steel
Corporation mines, or any of the mines
operated by independent. steel com
panies have signed the supplemental
agreement The coal strike is still in
full effect in the Connellsville coke
region in Fayette County, where the
miners have been organized and in
the Monongahela Valley AS far as the
independent steel Impanies are con-
cerned, it is believed some of them
will sign the agreement within the
next week. However, none of their
mines have ben re-opened as vt.
Operation at Homestead, Duauesne
and Edgar Thomson plants of the
Carnegie Steel Company, the largest
mills in the district, has been further
reduced this week, due to the coal
strike At Farrell, the Carnegie Com
pany was forced to close tight and
the American Steel e. Wire Company
operated only rs per cent of capacity,
during the week.
Steel makers are hopeful of an early
turn for the better in the coal and
railroad situation, following develop
ments of the week. They hope not
only to avert further suspensions
scheduled for the newt two weeks, but
to improve operations. This is con-
tingent, of course, upon fuel supply in
the open market.

BUREAU Of PUBLIC ROADS GATHERING
HIGHWAY STATISTICS IN EVERY STATE

d. w. Lamb, of Missoula, Mon
tana. representing the United States
Bureau of Public Roads, Department
of Agriculture, has been in Orofino
for number of days making sur
vey of road statistics. The purpose
of his visit is to ascertain the total
milage of rural roads, the character
and extent of their improvement,
the expenditure incident to their
management, improvement, repair
and maintenance, and the source
and amount of all funds devoted to
them in any way whatever. This
information is being collected from
the county records and from the
books Of the different highway dis
tricts.
Why the United States is making
this survey Is left to conjecture. 1t
is believed by many, in view OF
recent circumstances, that the sur
vey is the outcome Of the disarma-
ment conference now in session.
Should the United States reduce her
naval armament as contemplated by
the development of the conference.
there will undoubtedly be large
amount Of revenue on hand which
can be expended for other purposes.
Governor Davis, who Is deeply in
<oras<ad ~, roo1o ~, fiOu In tho ueSt
and particularly in southern Idaho,
together with other western govern
ors, endeavored to secure q fedeal
appropriation for such purposes but
learned there was little or no money
available. In explaining this fact
1t was revealed to them that out OF
every 800 of revenue collected by
the United States government, 80
cents is used to maintain the army
and navy and seven cents goes tC
pay the salaries of senators, repre-
sentatives. judges and other offici'
ais who are not connected with
some government business which II

the seven cents Is then used for re-
clamation, roads and ventures OF like

purposes other than maintaining

HARLAN REPORTS

Than North-Minor Changes in
Personal Property.

County Assessor John p. Harlan
returned from Boise, Mondy after
noon, where he hadJ been in attend
ance at the annual convention OF
the county assessors of the state Of
Idaho and reported the following to
the Republican, regarding the con-
gone:
Il feel that we had fairly sue
cessful Assessors convention this
month at Boise. But like any con-
vention where agreements and con-
clusions are arrived at there is no
compulsory power to compel the as
sesors to comply with the conven-
tion conclusions. Yet on a whole
they do comply with the agreements
reached and If one gets too far off.
the state board of equalization will
bring them to it.
Conditions in some counties OF
the southern part Of the state are
abnormally bad for the farmers.
Those raising hay and stock cattle
have been badly hit Alfalfa hay
is selling as low as $3.50 per ton
in some instances; many are hold
ing for $500 per ton in the stack,
with no sales. The last snow and
furry may have some effect in ad-
cancing sales.

alfalfa hay on account of the wee
vii, is working a hardhsip. while at
the same time some Of the Oregon
stockmen are taking advantage OF
the law and sending both sheep and
cattle into Idaho to be fed this
supposedly weevli infected hay.
However there will be . large hold
over in hay In this part Of our
state.
"Ths sheep industry il picking up

"The consensus Of opinion among

TOWN COUNCIL MEETING

The City Fathers met in the regu- lar meeting or the Council last night. In the absence of the Mayor, Mir Suf- fecool, as acting mayor, held the chair. The new clerk, Mir Gault was at his post and brought Tn a report, which the towuspeople of Skagway should take to heart.
 He stated that the books of the clerk were in such shape that uOth- ing could be found out by them. No entries in the journal and ledgers have been made for two years and a haIr and no auditing of the books has been made since Mir. Rogers left the clerkship.
 The figures of the Treasurer were taken as correct without any check ing and without any auditing accord ing to the report of the clerk.
 He therefore. asked that Mir. Rog- CTS or someone else be secured to bring the books up to date and stat ed that such work would probably cost about $50. The council author ized the expenditure or the money for the purpose stated, and suggested that the clerk be put under bond. so as to prevent anything like this oc- curing again.
