GOLD AB0UNDS IN ESTER DOME
 AT FAIRBANKS
Hundreds of Millions Will Be Produced Accord
 ing to J. L. McGinn

l SEWARD, Alaska I'm begin ming to believe that Ester Dome in the Fairbanks district is one of the best mineralized zones in Alaska and for it's extent, one of the best in the world" said J. L. McGinn, lawyer, mining man and capitalist, while in Seward, recently, enroute to his home in San Mateo, Cal and who has spent many years in the Territory from Nome to Fair banks. T think so well of it, that I'm coming back to my old love, Alaska, because she offers some of the best opportunities in the world right now, as she has always done. I am interested, with Joe Henderson, in a real gold mine near Fairbanks, and a crew is working there this winter There is enough in sight to justify enthusiasm and more development will bring bigger showings.
 NluStsT Ol MIIltS
 There is justification for the belief that the whole Ester Dome will some day be cluster of hard rock mines all turning out addition al wealth while the placers con- tinue to yield their harvest. Fair banks produced over a hundred million from her placers in the old days and will produce another hun dred million from the gravels under the new process. It's not too wild statement that she will stack up still another hundred million from the rocks that were never moved by the glaciers.
 Glaciers Clean Millions
 Ester Dome, for instance, in the heart of the Fairbanks district, is ionly about 30 miles long and four or five miles wide but from it the glaciers scraped many millions of dollars. Some of that has been recovered from the creek channels and more is to be recovered. In addition there is left in the hard rock of the dome the veins from which the gold was scraped by the ice. We will have to blast our way to that wealth but we know enough now to feel reasonably sure that the gold is there.
 The condition in the Fairbanks i. district can be in a measure re- peated in many places in Alaska Placer mining has really begun. Un- der our new process We can make money in ground that was prohibit , tive in the old days. The ground is still there and we are learning how to handle it.
 The whole Koyukuk watershed , is a potential gold field as well as the Kuskokwim. the Panama, and . the upper reaches of the Yukon The Kenai Peninsula, the Alaska peninsula, a great part of the coast line have given evidence of their holdings and their promise fol greater reward on great develop ment.
 T am a miner first, but my eyes are not closed to other trends of betterment and other possibilities in Alaska. The soil now offers us minerals. wood, coal oil, water pow CT and a hundred other things in virgin state. There will be farms and stock ranches. We have a rich !, empire to work on and big task ahead of us. Any one who doesn't like it, or Shrinks from the cost or troubles better take up his knitting

The New Naval Pact

The New Naval Pact
4 LTHOUGH the fve-power naval treaty for tn
~ limitation of ornaments which it was hoped t.
make effective at the London conference has no
been realized threepower agreement has been made
between the United States Great Britain and Japan
Under the treaty President Hoover declares
the United States will spend about billion dolar
less warshps than would have been if the con
ference had not been held.
In other words, while must still spend abou
600 million dollars to bring navy up to parity will
Great Britain, the plans previously made would have
caused the expenditure of 1000 million dollars.
While the new treaty does limit naval construction
it does not really reduce the size Of existing navies
Furthermore, the treaty contains clause which will
permit the three powers to further increase their
les in other nations which not in the agree
ment enter upon excessive building campaign.
1t is hoped that France and Italy may be brought
into the agreement later, but at London all efforts tt
reconcile the demands of these two countries were un
availing.
So, although the conference did not accomplish
nearly all that hoped for it hardly be said tc
have been failure

GAS TAX ROADS ARE
PICKED IN REDWOOD

At meeting of the board of coun-
ty commissioners the various pieces
of road that had been jointly selected
by the commissioners and various
Town boards in this commissioner
district for designation as County
Aid roads, popularity called gas tax
roads, were given the o. k, except a
stretch in Brookville and Shutdown
townships. This was held up owing
to a division of sentiment over the
roads to be chosen. The roads de-
signated were those outlined in The
Messenger two weeks ago. The long
est stretch Of road was the town line
road running through the county
north and south of Gilfillan. Already
the county board has made arrange
ments to reshape the Franklin road,
which runs east between Morgan and
Sherman townships two miles and
then north to the river. George Huh
nerkoch was given the job. He will
also reshape the north half of the
town line road to the Bendixen cor
ner. About 100 miles of road in this
commissioner district will be includ-
ed in the county aid. system. Main
tenance of the newly designated
roads by the county will start May

Baseball At Night

7 EAGUE baseball will be played in Des Moines,
/ Iowa, at night, this season, beginning May g.
and all home games except those on Sunday will
be played under artificial light.
Flood lighting of the ball park will be accomplish
ed by 14s lights of 1OOOwatts each mounted on nine
y foot steel towers. These will distributed around
the field in such way that there will be neither glare
shadows, and it is declared that the highest flies
and longest home runs will be clearly illuminated for
the benefit of players and spectators.
For some time night games such as football ten
mis-, golf and others have been played under artificial
light but the Des Moines field will be the first to be
equipped for night baseball playing of regular league
games.
Much interest in the innovation is being shown by
followers of the national game throughout the coun-
try and distinguished gathering of league officials
and sports writers will attend the opening game.

1t seems that the above slogan is
taking quite a lot of territory but
with proper support, the results of
the weed campaign will show a great
reduction in thistle acreage.
Several means of control have been
suggested.
l. Alfalfa.
2. Winter Rye.
3. Late seeu crop, such as naillet
4. Corn.
5. Summer fallow.
6. Sodium Chlorate.
The township weed meetings have
been well attended and the results
prove that people are anxious to CO.
operate and rid the country of thist-
les.
Eight towns have completed their
organization by lining up 100 per
cent, one section supervisor to every
section. Thistles can be killed with
cooperation but not without it. A
number of townships in addition to
the eight mentioned, have almost
completed their organization.
Weed meetings will be held in
every township so as to have a clear
understanding of the entire program.
Later on, list of all section super
visors will be published by townships.

Is gcians agreed with his wife that he would try
to communicate with her from the spirit world
although he had long scoffed at spirituasm. Ever
since his death in 1926 his widow has watched and
waited for a message.
few days ago Mrs. Houdini confessed that she
had abandoned hope of having communication
from beyond the grave, and sad "The silence is i'm
penetrable; there is only void"
On the same day that she made this statement
Sir Arthur Conan Doyle one of the most eminent of

body refuses to accept authentic any the many

After AZ years of painstaking investigation of
thousands of alleged communications through mediums

Yet many sincere persons believe that they have
had such communications, and one could convince
them to the contrary strong the power of belief

Muscle Shoals Jam

n ASSED by the Senate by nearly two-thirds vote,
the Norris bill for government operation of
Muscle Shoals struck snag in the House Mill
tary Committee, where it rejected along with all
other pending bills on the subject.
1t is proposed that the House committee write an
entirely BILL which is being framed along the
lines of President Hoover's recommendation in his
message to Congress last December. 1t would au-
thorize the President, board appointed by him,
to dispose of the government project by lease to
private company, without further action by Congress-
Some members of the committee favor an addi-
tional provision for government operation in case
satisfactory lease not be made. Just what kind
of bill will be finally reported to the House is not
known at present.
So, the Muscle Shoals question is in jam again,
with slight hope for action at this session. unless the
contending factions greatly modify their present at
titudes.
With President Hoover and the regular Republi-
can leaders opposed to the Norris plan with Sem
ator Norris opposed to everything else it looks very
much like another deadlock this 1O-year old pro-
blem.

X leaders of the World War, a recent writer notes
the fact that among them all Hindenburg alone
today occupies high place in world affairs. Round
ing out five years president of the German republic

three with two years more to serve.
Of the other great military leaders, Foch, Hag,

Lloyd George is still active and he longer holds an
important office. President Wilson, Car Nicholas
Emperor Francis Joseph, Premier Asquith, Premier
Clemenceau and Chancello Won Bethman Hollweg are

twenty million were wounded in struggle which
