OLD COUPLE OBTAIN NEW START IN LIFE
 RUNNING TRAP LINE

With the departure of MT. and Mrs. Barney Holley last week on the s. s. Aeutian with their nine live mink goes story that has epochal signifi- canoe in the development of Alaska. These two old folks in two years have started things all over again. In fact they are headed to modest fortune to cheer their declining days.
 The story as told by Joe Ramon of the Panhandle Cigar store, who knew them both, had it's beginning at Ar fington, Wash, two years ago. At the period when both were on the shady side of 50 they had farm at Arlington and were unable to pay the mortgage. To make matters worse, Barney Holley was 65 years of age and was troubled with hernia and his wife, then over 50, was afflicted with goiter.
 They came North She got job as cook on the Alaska Railroad and he took billet as section man. They were at Caswell station, near Nc Kinley Park.
 At Caswell a kindly disposed per son let them have the use of cabin. They had made enough during the summer to buy grub and few traps for the winter. During the winter they caught $1,OO0 in mink and in the spring they both had caught their limit of 20 beaver under a permit These were sold for $30 each, adding another s1,2OO to the spring fur clean up.
 They went Outside to pay off the mortgage on the Arlington farm and old doctor bills They came back last fall and went out 25 miles from Talkeetna at about Mile 227 of the Alaska Railroad, where they built a cabin He covered the traps while she stayed at home to skin and look after the fur.
 They got 75 mink at sic, number of ermine and wolverine.t They man. aged to catch nine mink alive, seven of them females that are expected to yield pups this spring. They will start mink ranch on the Arlington farm. In the meantime they expect to keep their Alaska source of supply alive and going.

Campaign Proves
To Be COstliest
Yet Conducted

WASHINGTON, Nov. 3.-Thc
lloovcr-Smith campaign was listed
today as apparently $l2,000,000
contest, the most expensive in
American history.
Reports of the Democratic and
Republican national committee to
the clerk of the house and the house
campaign funds committee showed
aggregate contributions and collcc-
tions of nearly $9,000,000. And the
money on Nov. |, was all spent ex-
cept for balances of few thousand
dollars each.
In addition, the separate eypendi-
lures of state and local organiza.
tions, the Anti-Saloon League. the
association against the prohibition
amendment, the Cannon Anti-Smith
movement, and the national commit
tee, expenses for the final week of
the campaign are expected to bring
the total to $l2,000,000 or more.
Both parties have surpassed their
early campaign estimates. The Re
publican committee has received
$4,9l ,744 in contributions and spent
$I,771, ,36l. The Democratic commit
tee has borrowed $l,000000 and
collected approximately $3,000,000 in
contributions.
Chairman Raskob of the Demo
cratic committee spent more than
100000 in the last week of
October, most of it going to state
committees.

SPECIAL TRAIN ENROUTE TO
PALO ALTO, Calf, Nov. 3.--lIcrb-
crt lloovcr's special train was speed
ing today across Kansas, through
the heart If the wheat belt, carry
ing the Republican presidential
candidate TO Pueblo, Colo, where he
will break his westward journey
again for his fourth and last speech
on his way home.
Early today, while Hoover still
was sleeping, the train crossed from
doubtful Missouri into Kansas.
The Republican candidate rccciv-
cd an enthusiastic ovation from Il
crowd of 10000 which packed St.
Louis Coliseum last night to hear
the major address Of his western
trip, a final appeal for farm sup
port.
Hoover said he hoped the Dccem-
bcr short session of congress would
solve the farm question but added
that off this is not possible, would
call a special session in order that
we might speedily arrive at a de-
termination of the question before
the next harvest
Hoover's speech was pointed
mainly at the farm and business clc-
ment of the west.
He expressed himself in favor of
completion Of the great threc-fold
= Mississippi system of inland
waterways, joining the gulf, the
Great Lakes and the sea via the st.
Lawrence, with laterals feeding
into this great chain. Such system
he said, would be of great benefit
both to the farmer and to mid
western business.
Tasks For Government
II" proposed formation of a fed
cral farm board TO ala farmers, with
government assistance, but leaving
their business within their own
control. Further, he advocated
rcgulation' of public utilities but
objcctcd' to the government
going into busincss in competition
with its own citizens.
Hoover took as his theme the
fleldS INTO winch government should
enter. This contrast with his recent
New York speech in which he
labelled as estate socialism, - Gov.
Smith 8 proposals for government
action on the liquor question, farm
relief and waterways.
The government, he held, must
deal with "grcat undertakings in
public works, such as inland water
ways, flood control, reclamation,
highways and public buildings -
Still other proper realms for gov,
crnment activity, he said, were
" fostering education, public health,
scientific research, public parks
conservation of national resources,
agriculture, industry and foreign
commerce. as well as aiding the
growing efforts of our people to
cooperation among themselves to
useful and economic ends. -

POLICE HUNTING
NUDE TERRORIST
BY United Press Leased Wire

SANTA ROSA, Calf, Nov. d
A nude man, who has terrorized
women of Santa Rosa, as he wander
ed about the streets at night, was
hunted today by the Santa Rosa
police.
For three nights he made his APP
pearance. The first report was from
telephone operator who was going
to her home late at night when the
unclothed man appeared.
He pursued her for three blocks,
until the operator screamed. Her
outcries attracted the attention of
neighbors and the naked man fled,
just as the operator tainted. The
nude apparition was reported last
night by others.
Police, in taxi cabs, searched
through the city and environs for
hours, in an effort to locate the
man.
