TOXIC, July 5.-A. Alone, envoy
from Moscow, who. from his sick bed,
has been carrying on diplomatic con-
versations with Toshihiko Kawa-
Rami. delegate of the Toxic govern
ment. in an effort to pave the way
for the resumption OF relations be-
tween Japan and Russia, remarked
after the last such meeting: THE
only reason / don't walk out is that
I cannot walk" This comment from
the soviet diplomat was called forth
by the insistence of Kawakami that
the discussion of indemnity for the
massacre of Japanese at Nikolaievsk
he considered jointly with the Rus
sian request for Japan to fix the date
for the evacuation of northern Sakhalin
Island.
No Nearer Accord.
Thus far the conversations have
brought the delegates no nearer an
accord than were the recent confer
cnces at Chang Chung. where Japan
and Russia split on practically the
same issue.
THE only difference" said a spokes-
man for Joffe. "is that the Japanese
seem to be sincercr in their effort to
reach an agreement"
The conversations are expected to
continue throughout July.

Millions in Royalties
Claimed by Inventor

Chicago.-Herman Dewitt Ridge, a
New York inventor, has filed suit In
the United States District court here
In which he claims royalty running
into millions for alleged infringement
of his patent on weighing scales.
The suit declares 200 of the largest
concerns in the Middle West, among
them the International Harvester cor
poration, Sears. Roebuck & Co., Lyon
& Hea1y and the United Cigar COM
pany are infringing his patents. He
asks they be enjoined from using the
scales Ridge asks that all scales
bearing either the stamp of e. and T.
Fairbanks company or the Fairbanks
Morse company be. made over in his
name and that he be given royalty on
all now In use.
Officials of the Fairbam-s-M Morse
company were unable to throw any
light on the basis for the suit.

political change. 1t wins it's victories
ionly where it finds great numbers OF
those property-owning American
MARINERS who enormously are sup
posed to be the politically quiescent
Vehement in our population.
Incidentally, it might be added that
it was the farmers of Massachusetts
and not the city jewellers who fired
the first shots of the American revo-
tuition and that it was the farmers of
the west who in a later day turned
the scales against slavery and de-
stroyed that historic institution.
Frederick Turner, the most funda-
mental of contemporary American
historians, long ago proved that the
change accompanying force in American
politics is not the city. 1t is, as
Prof. Turner expresses it, " the

New Life Is Injected to Overcome

The despair of the oyster provinces
OF France during the last few months
is relieved now by news from the
colony of Morocco
A great deposit Of robust oysters
has been discovered there which may
be introduced into the oyster beds Of
Brittany and Gascony to dissipate the
strange languor'' which has settled
like an epidemic upon the inbred
French oysters
seThe oyster birth rate" according
to the French reports, "has suddenly
fallen and the death rate is rising
alarTningly." BY the infusion of the
new strain, it is hoped the gourmets
OF France may be assured of sufficient
oysters for several decades longer.

Skeleton Shows Cliff
Dwellers Were Dwarfs

Prescott Ariz.-Scientists who will
visit Prescott next summer to attempt
to clear the mystery of the ancient
cliff dwellings on the Verde river will
be asked to give their attention to a
skeleton found recently by Morris and
Howell Payne, ranchers, living a few
miles north of this city.
Although the skeleton is apparent
ly no larger than that of a child Of
four or FIVE years, the skull contains
a fully developed set of mature teeth.
The Payne brothers unearthed the
skeleton while excavating for a road
IN Granite Dells, vast granite for
nation near Prescott.
The skeleton has excited lively in

maturity of the teeth and skull bones
which, one physician said, showed

Prints of the hands of the builders
of the well-preserved prehistoric
dwelling known as Montezuma's
castle are still seen in the mudlike
mortar holding the stones together,
and these prints indicate that the
jewellers were persons with very
small hands
The tiny doorways and low ceilings
seem to bear out the theory that the
people living there were of small
stature.

State Trunk Highway Hearing.

The legislature of 1928 has
authorized the addition of $500
miles of road to the $500 mile state
trunk highway system, 5000 miles
Of which we're lid out in 1917, and
the remainder in 1919. The
governor has appointed a special
committee of the legislature to act
with the state highway commission
in the layout.
There will be hearings at eli
county seats to gain information on
which to base the selection of the
new trunk highways. Any essential
changes in the present system (and
any Encouragement Of the present
svstem) made necessary by the
proposed new routes may also be
brought up at these hearings.
The hearing for Iron county viii
be held by the special legislative
committee and the state highway
commission in the court house ir

YES, WE HAVE NO MAIN
STREET POLES
The Eyesores Which Have Stood for
Many Years are Being Removed
This Week.

This week will probably see the
last of the telephone poles on Silver
street, eyesores that have stood for
years, a crew has been busy this
week taking them down. Wires and
cables We're removed from the main
street poles and attached to poles in
the alleys, preliminary work which
has been going on for weeks,
Huriey's main business street pre-
SCENTS much better appearance
minus the poles They stood for SO
many years that we got pretty well
accustomed to having them there
and their absence is particularly
noticeable With a fine white way
Hurley now has a street that is
right up-to-date.
While it was intended that all
poles, including those of the
telephone company and the power
and light company, should be re-
moved from Silver street. four small
poles used by the street railway
company to attach guy wires for the
trolley win probably have to remain
for a time at least, this being on ac-
count Of four owners Of buildings
on the street refusing the street
railway company permission to at
tach the guy wires to their buildings.
Up until last year several small poles
on either side of Silver street were
used as guy wire supports for the
street railways trolley. Last sum
mer as a preliminary to removal of
the poles from main street the
company attached these guy wires
to buildings, getting permission from
the owners of buildings in front of
which stood the poles, with the ex-
ception Of four, hence it was
necessary to leave four poles stand
ing. The city authorities, however.
look for a favorable solution of the
matter so that all the poles can be
removed, leaving only the white way
standards.
