pesits at the mouth of tho kOyuk. Several veins were found scattered over a distance of 1,500 feet or so. The widest was about six inches thick. Although rumor has it that there is a six foot veing somewhere in the locality we did not see it. We remained there until about October 20, when the rivers froze up suffi- ciently to travel and then proceeded along the coast for about 35 miles to the mouth of the mouth of the Ungalik River and Bonanza Creek. Sandstone and shale were encount- cred all along the path of our travels and on some of the lakes in this locality we found unmistakable evi- dences of the presence of mineral ore. Everything was frozen and 1t was hard to gather samples, but l am convinced that oil is there in ap
 preciable quantity.
 Some of the natives residing in the district told me that they have at times amused themselves by punc- turing the frozen bubbles on the lakes and lighting them to watch them burn. This seems to prove that there is gas present After short stay in the section, it commenced to snow and it was impossible to do any work until next spring.
 "On October IS, Hoem and myself visited Frank Shaw on Bonanza creek. MT. Shaw is an interesting host and leads the ideal life. He combines with his mining activities the farmers life, raising potatoes. turnips, lettuce, radishes. He also grows tomatoes and cucumbers un- der glass. When we were there he had several barrels of blueberries and cranberries in cold storage When he needs money it is to be
 had with very little labor. have seen a good many creeks and min-
 ing claims. but Mr. Shaw has the
 ideal place. If the river below comes up to his estimate, he has the
 best proposition I have seen,'

WARNING TO EUROPE

As a reminder to France and Italy that
America can not be trifed with indef
nitely, the Washington decision to post
pone further naval scrapping until the
limitation pact is ratified by those coun-
tries is wise
The United States, Great Britain and
Japan have ratified their pledges during
the parley. Italy has withheld ratification
In fear of French naval expansion; France
has withheld ratification as pawn in her
diplomatic game with England and per-
haps in her financial game with America
The threat of war over the Near East COM
plicated the outlook, but there would have
been no threat of war had the powers
abandoned the old diplomacy and con-
Quoted their negotiations with the frank
ness of the parley at Washington.
Pessimistic assumptions that the naval
pact will fall through are natural, but hap
PLY are not likely to be realized. Wash
lngton's blunt announcement will not be
without weight in Europe, where this coun-
try's influence is stin sought. The furry
over Turkey shows signs of abatement to
the relief of Paris and London, both of
which now realize that danger of going
too far toward disruption of the Entente.
Compromise is in the air, with the Turk
the gamer. 1t may not be very creditable
to European diplomacy, but when was
European handling of the Turkish problem
anything but discreditable?

NOBILITY

For a question that involves a hundred
considerations pro and con the American
Bankers Association in convention in New
York made remarkably quick job of
cleaning up the foreign debt problem. That
is to say, many Of them declared that they
thought it would be nice if the government
became noble and charged up these debts
to experience or altruism or something, re-
tanning only recollection that, after all,
desperate nations bond may prove to be
about as bad as its word when the bond
natures.
The time may come when it clearly will
be the expedient thing to cancel these
debts. If the step is taken it must be with
the consent of the people who will have to
pay the debt in increased taxes for another
generation or 50. The money lent Europe
was not produced by waving a wand over
hat. Liberty bonds in thousands of
American homes represent the govern
ment's Indebtedness to its citizens growing
out of these foreign loans It will be for
the bond owner to say whether he is will
ing 10 pay for Europe's badly learned les
son in the folly of war; And bankers are
only a small portion of the persons quail
fed to decide:
Speaking of bankers, they are the boys
who advanced millions of dollars to allied
countries in the early years of the war.
Their loans were private transactions, and
the money realized was spent here for
munitions and supplies. This proceeding
netted the banker a healthy hunk of dis
count and the manufacturer the ample
margin customary in the war promotion
business.
Yet the New York gathering was mys-
teriously silent about the nobility of can
ceiling these private loans from which the
banker and the munition maker already
have made theirs.

TAX REFORM AND ECONOMY

With industry bearing the handicap of
constantly increasing federal and state
taxes, all owners of the country are rails
ing cry for tax reform.
Generally these demands for tighten
ing of the burden bear the expression that
changing this tax law or repeating that one
will remedy the situation. In minor way.
amendments and notifications of the ex-
lstlng statutes would prove beneficial; but
the real aid cannot be invited to exert its
force until national and state extrava
gances cease.
When economy governs the hands that
sign the vouchers in the public's name
then small time will be devoted to con-
slderation of taxation systems for then
they will not be oppressive.
Watch the expenditures and the finances
will largely take care Of themselves.

AN IMPORTANT QUESTION

Railroads are cutting fares to compete
with motor vehicles operating on publicl,
maintained highways.
Indications are that under such com.
petition train service will have to be cut
The railroads face the same problem in
carrying freight.
The public will serve itself best if il
saves the railroads from improbable oper-
alton and bankruptcy.
Steel tracks and powerful trains are the
real process for handling inland traffic,
and If the railroads are starved by lack of
traffic, the public service will suffer.
In the situation there is this query !:
Should the public tax itself to maintain
highways on which, for private profit,
motor vehicles operate on a free right of
way, while the railroads operate on an ex-
pensive privately built right of way and in
addition pay heavy taxes on the valuation
OF such right of way?
The right of way and its maintenance is
one OF the heavy costs of railroad opera
ton. 1t is cost that motor vehicles COM
peting with the rail lines escape, save for
the comparatively light tax now imposed
Overloaded trucks do more than any,
thing else to destroy the highways, and the
highways cost the taxpayer huge sum.
To save the public highways from destruc
ton will cost another and constantly grow
ing sum.
The problem is how to balance the re-
lations between the railroads and COM
mercial vehicles carrying traffic on the
free highways, and is very delicate and
important question.

A GOOD ILLUSTRATION

The circulars and advertising Of lead
ing bond house announced for sale S75,-
100000 of ten-twenty year Federal Land
Bank az per cent bonds.
The first line Of reading on the circular
was New Issue Exempt From Federal,
State, Municipal and Local Taxation"
The sale Of these bonds means that $751;
100000 more will be removed from the
county'5 tax rolls and remaining taxable
property will have to make up by an equal
proportion the tax revenue thus lost BIZ
federal, state, municipal and local govern
ments.
Also it means that with the government
issuing ''tax-free" securities it is becoming
harder and harder for employing indus
tries which now bear the great burden Of
taxation, to raise money for development
purposes.
Vast fortunes which now secure all the
protection a good government can offer.
are escaping the burden Of maintaining
such government by investment of funds
In tax-exempt securities which the great
majority of citizens must sweat to protect,
If government is to be maintained.
President Harding in his message of
December 6, 1921, said:
MANY of us belong to that school of
thought which is hesitant about altering
the fundamental law. | think our tax
problems, the tendency of wealth to seek
non-taxable investments, and the menac-
ing increase in public debt-federal, state.
and municipal-all justify proposal to
change the Constitution so as to end the
issue of non-taxable bonds"
Here is the first place to start to re-
duce the tax bill. Let all pay their just
proportion Of the tax load.
No country can survive with one half the
incomes tax-exempt and the other half
taxable.

TWENTY-FIVE YEARS AGO

mashed by a rail falling on it near
Iron Point this morning. He was
brought here in a caboose, and DR..
Hanson attended to his injury,
which will lay him up for some
time. Ut was lucky for Peter that
the accident happened to him twen-
ty-five years ago, instead of five
years ago. He would have been
fortunate, indeed, if some patriot,
five years ago, had not taken adj
vantage of the opportunity to push
rail on his other hoof.)

years, died at the county hospital
