AFRICA COLD MINES
 FACING DEPLETION

LONDON, Nov, 6, (P)-While
 in Europe there is a shortage of
 gold, in Africa there is some anx-
 iety amongst the gold producers
 who desire to secure for their in-
 dustry, 9 prolongation of it's ex- istance, at present under a seri- ous threat.
 If anyone doubts there is 8 shortage of gold in Europe. let him ask Philip Snowden or the money market.
 The shortage of metallic money, has restricted credit and has made it impossible to stop the deflation, which in turn has had so much to do with unemploy- ment, reports the Denver Mining Record.
 To enable all Europe to pay it's separations and war debts, to ex- pand credits automatically and thereby to abolish three quarters of the unemployment by facilitat- ing the financing of new enter prises; to accomplish these three objects by producing more gold, it is imperative that more capital go into mining.
 In Southern Rhodesia in par ticular, the shrinkage of the gold production is causing much anx- iety. During the 40 odd years of the colony's existance, gold min ing has been it's economic back bone. One means of increasing the gold output and prolonging the life of the district, would be the grand of a bonus upon gold produced from low grade ore.

NEIH PROCESS HAS BEEN INSTALLED
 IN SAN JUAN AREA

OURAY, Colo, Nov, 6, (P)-G. F Henley of Durango is installing a complete plant of equipment here where metals will be treated by a new process. This is known as the electrolysis process which is said to save all values.
 The plant, which resembles a miniature smelter, is one of the latest on the market and may prove to be a boon to the mining industry, according to MT. Henley. He says he uses special reagents which separate and save the vari- ous metals in the ores.
 The ore-bearing rock is first crushed and then smelted in small electric furnace and emerg- es in the appearance of slag. The slag is crushed and ground to powder and the metals are separ- ated by means of MI; Henley's secret treatment.
 The plant has been installed here because the ores found in this region are said to contain metals that heretofore were lost in smelting and their value re- unknown. This process of and treatment, if it proves successful, will not only make mining of low grade ores profitable but may be the means of locating new metal or min eral that formerly was not known to exist in the ores, according to the Denver Mining Record.

INTEREST FORTHCOMING
 DAY CONTINUES MOUNT

Great interest is being shown in the forthcoming Armistice Day dance, to be presented under the auspices of the Seward Rebekah Lodge. The committee has been a much quesited group and today Walter Corliss, chairman of the Rebekah dance committee gave the following additional information on the dance and arrangements for the the door prize:
 Tickets for the Armistice Day dance are off the press and are on sale at several of the local business houses, as we'll as being sold by several individuals. They are 50 cents each for everybody and one may buy as many tickets as desired, for the more one buys the greater the chances will be for winning the door prize. What is the door prize? A turkey and, what a turkey! Ask Gus Manthey.
 Each ticket has two correspond ing numbers, one on the ticket proper and one on the stub Make sure one of the numbers on your ticket or tickets reaches the man at the door prior to F midnight, November II, as the winning num- Der will be drawn sharply at 12 midnight. The third number drawn will win the turkey, providing the same number is in the hall. If no one shouts turkey" the drawing will continue until some one within the hall produces the lucky number.

$4,000 Slash
Is Made In
County Budget
COMMISSIONERS PARE DOWN
ESTIMATES TO BARE
NECESSITIES

Property owners in Benton county
were saved approximately $4,000 IN
their next years taxes when the coun-
ty commissioners at meeting this
week shaved that much from the es-
timated budgets for 1892.
The budgets for every one OF the
county offices sustained cut, rang
ing from 500 in the school superin-
tendent's office to over $4,000 in the
office of the treasurer assessor. The
commissioners even sliced off $500
from their own budget.
County Agent E, c. Durdle appeared
before the board and voluntarily
agreed to take 10 per cent reduction
in his salary for next year and SIM
liar slash was made in the salaries of
most of the deputies in the various
county offices, County Commissioner
Ira Hawley said. The salaries of the
heads of the different county offices
are fixed by law and not subject to
regulation by the county commission

The budgets are listed in the fol-
lowing table, the first column OF fig
ures showing the amounts asked and

Delegates Home
From Road Meet

D, s. Wilkinson, F.. A. English, Fred
Gilhuly and Henry Chairman return
ed Sunday night from Centralia, where
on Friday and Saturday they attended
the annual meeting Of the Washington
State Good Roads association.
The nearly 500 delegates who attend
ed this year were slightly under the
ordinary attendance in number This
was attributed in part to the depres-
sion and in part to the fact that no
session of the legislature follows this
winter to give legal sanction to the
associations recommendations.
The high light of the meeting this
year was the passage of resolution
for the creation of state highway
commission to administer the state
roads, instead of having that authority
vested in the governor, as at present
This resolution, prepared by DR.. P
H. Carlyon and Unanswered through
the convention by A. D. Goss State
Grange master, was passed by vote
of 237 to 202.
State Senator Fred w. Hastings OF
Seattle was elected president for the
coming year and Spokane was select
ed for the 1882 convention.
On their way to the Coast early Fri
day morning, the White Bluffs party
had an exciting experience while going
through Naches Pass When they hao
approached the summit where the road
is still under construction, big rock
rolled, or rather bounded, over the
road about 80 feet in front of theil
car, having been loosened by workmer
above. The car was stopped immed-
lately and started to back pedal, la
Gene Tunney, to get out of the danger
zone
Patrolmen, handicapped by fog, fin
ally stopped the workmen and cleared
the road and the car proceeded but
the men say they did not draw q
full breath until they were over the
divide and on their way down the west
side of the mountain.
On Sunday the party drove aroune
the Olympic Peninsula highway, 6

Golf Club Discusses
Further improvements

With the advent of the cooler fall
weather, the Priest Rapids golf course
has been the scene of much activity
during the past few weeks.
A number of the green's have been
improved, oil having been mixed with
the sand to give better surface. Some
work has also been done on the fair
ways. AS soon as these improvements
have been finished, the club will make
other changes in the course, lengthen-
ing of some of the holes being planned.
Score cards have been printed by the
Spokesman for the use of players, and
supply is kept on hand in this Of
flee. Players may have them by in
quiring at the Spokesman.
The Priest Rapids golf club will hold
q meeting next Tuesday night, the
place to be determined later, to which
all golf players are urged to come. At
this meeting the club will discuss fur

Washington's Apple Crop
Less But Nations Larger

The total apple crop in the United
States for 1881, according to the Sep
TENDER estimate of the U. S. De-
partment of Agriculture, will be 49,
933, 900 barrels The total production
in 1880 was 33,723,O00 arrels.
The state of Washington, which last
year produced over one-third of the
total apple crop in the nation, prom
Uses yield this year of 8,442000 bar
rels, a shrinkage of almost 5000 00O
barrels under the 1880 yield. OF the
other Pacific States, California prom
Uses "a crop of 1,778,O0O barrels as
against the 1880 production of 2,174,
900 barrels; Oregon, 1,228,0OO as com
pared to the 100000 barrel crop OF
last year while Idaho's estimated yield
of 100000 barrels will be slightly In
excess of it's crop of 100000 barrels
last year.
The big increase in yield this year
is in the southeastern part Of the
country. Virginia, with promised
crop of 100000 barrels will market
over three times it's 1880 yield of L.
100000 barrels. West Virginia, Arkan-
sas, and Maryland, promise similar in
creases, as do Missouri, Ohio, Illinois
and Michigan. All of the northeast
ern states, with the exception of one
or two, promise slightly smaller CROP
than last year.
A barrel, as used by the depart
ment of agriculture, is equivalent tc
three boxes.

Open Season on Waterfowl
Has Been Changed

Changes in the hunting season for
ducks. geese, brant and coot in IA
states we're announced last Saturday
by Secretary of Agriculture Hyde. In
Washington and Oregon the season
commences November 16 and closes
December Is. TX s
AS conservation measure, Presi-
dent Hoover, in a proclamation issued
last month limited the hunting sea-
son in the Northwest this year to just
the month of October. Under the
change in Mr.. Hyde's announcement,
the hunting season has not been
heightened but was made later in the
year, presumably upon the request of
hunters, who had pointed out that the
annual southern flight of waterfowl
does not begin until November.

Over 1000 Attend
Ceremonies at Tipsoe
Bv JAMES W. BROOKS

Those having in charge the cere-
monies at Lake Tipsoe last Sunday,
celebrating the near completion OF the
Naches Pass highway, with probably
| the best intentions in the world over
looked some important details
/ In the first place, they failed toscon-'
suit the weather man, with the result
that heavy fog hung over the lake
and surrounding mountains, limiting
visibility to not over 100 feet, chilling
the crowd and interfering seriously
with the program.
IL the second place, preparations
had been made at the lake to take
care of only a small portion Of the
1000 visitors who attended. Cars were
strung out along the road for two miles
on each side of the lake and those I'M
fortunate enough to arrive late lhad
their choice of turning around in the
fog and driving home or leaving their
cars and walking to the lake over
rather muddy road.
And in the third place, the celebra-
ton was held about six months too
soon Five miles or more of the road
at the summit is still unfinished and
will not be completed for two or three
months yet and that rough portion, in
conjunction with the other handicaps,
did not add anything to the pleasure
of the crowd.
But in spite of all this, the program
was carried out Even the mock we'd
ding, joining in bonds of "alimony'
Miss Peaches of Yakima and Mr..
Cream of Enumclaw-the feature OF
the ceremonies-was put over, though
the fog prevented the taking OF any
motion pictures and the gowns of the
bride and her dozen or more attend
ants representing towns along the
route, seemed all too frail to shield the
wearers very much from the cold damp
| atmosphere.
But despite all the shortcomings OF
the celebration the road itself, when
completed, will be wonderful high
way, Astounding in beautiful scenery,
surprising any other route across the
mountains.

Staveleys Write More
Of European Trip

d. "a
Mr.. and Mrs. Tom Staveley arrived
safely at their home in Tonbridge,
England, the last of August, after their
motor trip to Vienna, although the
second installment of the clog" of
their trip which was received in White
Bluffs this week, tells of one very mar
row escape from disaster. The trav-
elers wrote of their experience as fol-
lows: (Mrs, Staveley begins) o
IT really meant to go on with my
log of the trip from day to day, but
we travelled such lot the, last week
and tried to see so much when the car
wasn't moving, that had to abandon
the unequal struggle.
when left off, we were just leav-
ing Munchen for Praha, as 3remem-
Der, and we were terribly tired after
our short night. The good roads rap
idly deteriorated. We all took maps
and I was sound asleep when we
came to the border between Germany
and Czech-land. 1t was a tiny
place, very unimpressive and sleepy
and the Czech advertisements looked
very alarming. The guard and the
people abcl appeared rather sullen
at first Sight, but they have nice
smiles. They crochet little ear-caps
there for their horses and the peasant
dress is very ttractive; but in spite
of the fact tna5 Czecho is very, very
old, it is a new race-new, and indus
trial and efficient--and we didn't fee
quite SO happy there as elsewhere
They were much interested in our car
