EXPECT TO REACH
ARG0NAUT FRIDAY
AND SAVE MINERS
Governors Representative
Does Not Expect All to
Be Alive.

Jackson Cal, Sept. 12.-(By The
Associated. Press.)-'"We will break
through into the Argonaut mine Fri
day. probably Thursday, and will find
some of the Al imprisoned miners
alive said Clarence E. Jarvis, a mem
her of the state board of control, and
Governor Stephens representative,
Tuesday. after he had made a prellml-
nary survey of conditions surrounding
the Argonaut disister.
I'VE cannot. expect to find all the
miners alive" said Mr.. Jarvis, but we
most certainly will find a few waiting
for the rescue crews to break through
from the Kennedy mine. The heat
protects them more than any other
one thing"
Jarvis said Tuesday that he is thor
oughly familiar with underground con-
ditions in the Argonaut mine, having
made many trips of inspection after the
fire of two years ago. He said every
condition under ground is favorable TO
the miners. who are experienced n
who know how to act in a disaster of
this kind.
With good luck the Argonaut mine
will be penetrated Thursday night or
Friday morning" he said. Even with
bad luck | am sure it will be reached
not later than Saturday.
At noon Tuesday approximately 90
feet remained to be dug on the $500
foot level of the Kennedy mine before
the rs feet of rock barring the way
to the Argonaut is reached. A total
of 115 feet remains on the 3.9OO-foot
level. where the second rescue crew is
working.
From Seattle came word that j.. W.
Bullock. owner of another mine near
the Argopaut workings, had begun rails
inr \ fund with which to reward the
first crew to break through into the
Arronaut. 1t was expected this would
reach $1,000. The mines officials
already have offered one reward OF
5000 for this. .AdSi&

Liberian Loan
Proposal Starts
Fight in Senate

WASHINGTON, Sept. IA sharp
fight Developed Monday in the senate
over the administration bill proposing
a loan of 100000 to the government
of Liberia. a measure passed by the
house last May, urged by President
Harding and Secretary Hughes, and
included on the republican steering
committees program.
The bill, declared by republican
leaders to be an inheritance" from
the Wilson administration and a moral
Obligation, was attacked by Senator
Borah, republican. Idaho. and several
democratic senator's, including Senator
Glass. democrat, of Virginia, who was
secretary of the treasury during the
Liberian loan negotiations.
Chairman McCumber and Senator
Curtis, republican, Kansas. of the
senate finance committee. urged pas
sage of the bill as a measure to meet
a moral obligation. They said Liberia
declared war against Germany and sui
fered considerable loss after beng pro-
missed financial assistance which was
| precluded by the armistice and sub
~seuuent legislation. They reclted that
former President Wilson, former Sec
rotary Lansing, of the state depart
ment, President Harding and Secre-
tary Hughes had recommended the
loan, Mr.. Lansing declaring the United
States honor bound"
Senator Rorah charged that the bill
meant the taking over of Liberia by
the United States and added that New
York bankers who have made loans to
Liberia would be the principal bene-
| ficiaries.

that they were badly battered by

PROCLAIMS BIRD
ANDARBOR DAYS
Governor Small Designates April II
and Oct. % for Observance
Throughout State.

Declaring that the trees and the
birds of any land constitute q part
of its natural wealth, and their
aesthetic value is highly as impor-
tant to the people as their eco
nomic valve" Geovernor Len Small
in a proclamation today designated
April IA and Oct. 81 as Arbor and
Bird days in Illinois
Governor Small urged that the
days be observed by planting trees,
shrubs and vines, and with exer-
cises in the schools to emphasize
the Importance of their propaga-
ton and the preservation of native
birds.
Trees and birds, the proclama
ton said, minister to and delight
the senses. Our trees preserve our
lands from erosion. they furnish US
with the fruits of the earth and
with lumber to house US and with
fuel to warm US, and their grateful
shade shields us from the blazing
sun of summer. Our birds, sub
sisting largely upon insect pests,
protect the growing trees and crops
and thus add materially TO the
wealth of the state, besides con-
tributing to our pleasure by their
bright plumage and sweet songs.
1t is quite essential that our youth
from time to time be impressed
with the necessity Of propagating
and fostering these important nat
ural resources"
The proclamation then designat-
ed. Friday. April IA. and Friday,
Oct. 81, as ArbOr and Bird days,
ito be observed throughout the
state by planting and care of trees,
shrubs and vines about the homes,
on the farms, along the highways
and about public grounds within
this state, and as days on which to
hold appropriate exercises in the
public schools and elsewhere to
emphasize the Importance to our
state Of the propagation of trees,
shrubs and vines, and the preser-
walton of our native birds"

TAX RATE HIGH
ON u. S. HOUSES
More Money Due From Housing
Corporation Than in 1913
Bill Passes.

The Rock Island city officials are
greatly relieved by passage of the
Graham housing bill in the United
States senate. and Martin T. Rud-
gren, city clerk, estimates that this
city will receive approximately
$4,000 for taxes for the years 1920,
1921.
Approximately 100000 will be
paid for paving installments in the
government housing district. This
money goes to the contractor who
did the work or to those to whom
the improvement bonds were sold.
However, while the city could not
have beeen held legally liable, il
is believed, for this money in
case the amount was not forthcom-
. ing from the United States Hous-
ing corporation, great relief is felt
that the money is to be paid. as
some expression of opinion had
been heard that the city should pro-
tect its bonds by retiring them in

Lakes-St. Lawrence deep water
route to the sea. Chicago will have
regular steamship service to Phiia-

officials of the Chicago Steamship
company.
Five oceaE-going steamers have
been purchased to start the line.
All the ships come within the pres
ent dimensions of the Welland

the lakes to the st. Lawrence.
One of the vessels, the George

cago several weeks ago loaded with
sugar, but after being buffeted by
winter gales off the Nova Scotian
coast. was caught by ice in Lake
st. Clair. above Detroit. and is now
held there waiting for a thaw. The
Clyde is able to pillow through six
inch ice in the open lakes, but the
narrow St. Clair has been damned
with thick foes.
Two other ships. purchased from
the shipping board at Seattle, are
Quitting there for the long trip
via the Panama canal and the st.

made last summer by the passen-
ger steamer Petoskey, formerly in
