From County by Chief
of Police and Deputy

Nine auto loads of gypsies were
prohibited from entering Redwood
Falls Monday afternoon by Deputy
Sheriff Harry Beatty and Frank Japs,
chief of police, who were warned by
Renville county officials.
The rovers were chased out of Olivia
earlier in the day and headed for Red
wood Falls. After receiving the "tip, y
the deputy sheriff and chief of police
went to near Morton on the south
side of the river and waited for them.
When the gypsies appeared they
were stopped and told to stay out of
Redwood county. After arguing, the
band turned east and continued on
their unmapped journey.
Mr.. Beatty stated today that the car
was packed with passengers who pro-
badly would have made the rounds
Redwood Falls business houses. Their
cars were good makes and practically
new.

U. s. Weather, Bureau
 Expects Mild Winter
,,i.Atnou ,.l-iE.~,-

In view of the universal hard times, it is gratifying to learn from the Outside papers that the United States weather bureau at Washington is ex- pecting the coming winter to be a comparatively mild one, unless there should occur and unprecedentedly sharp drop in temperature. At least this is the normal expectancy, as a result of an upward swing in temperatures beginning in 19- 26, weather bureau officials announced recently.
 The records show that the weather moves in periods or cycles of a few cold years, fol- lowed by a few warm years, hence the upward temperature trend since 1926, while not pointing definitely to a mild winter, is taken as indicating that the coming season will be comparatively warm.

It is understood that the closing of the local office has been under consideration for some time and is in line with a policy of economy and coordi- nation of offices wherever pos sible without interference with public service.

GOOD INDICATIONS
 AT GEORGIA RIVER

A progress report on devel- opment activities given out; by the Vancouver offices of Geor- gig, River Gold Mines, Ltd, a few days ago said two shifts are. no W employed under ground on the company's ex- tensive holdings on Georgia river and some surface explor- ation work is also being done on the outlying veins.
 The crosscut from the Bullion tunnel level, designed to cut the southwest vein, has been advanced 80 feet. since work was resumed some weeks ago and the rock at the face was reported as becoming more heavily mineralized as work progresses, indicating that the vein will be encountered soon.
 The ore in No. l tunnel on this vein assays over $25 in gold and it's downward persis- tence to the Bullion tunnel lev el, 260 feet below and about 400 feet from the surface, is likely to be of greatest import ance.. Stoping on the camp vein was said to have disclosed ore running $30 per ton in gold.

Rustgard Says Fish Traps ....
 Can Be Heavily Taxed

The legality of fish traps has been recognized by the United States, department of commerce, and by the Alaska legislature and there is no way to abolish them by direct act ion except through the federal authorities, according to attor- ney general John Rustgard. He believes, however, that the Alaska legislature may law fully levy such a heavy tax on traps as to make fishing with them unprofitable.

TERRITORY FINANCES
 STOP ROAD ACTIVITIES

The Board of Territorial Road Commissioners adopted no road program this year and does not contemplate the ex- penditure of any Territorial funds on road projects, owing to the depleted state of the Territory's finances, according to an interesting letter on Alaskan affairs received re- gently by the Herald from William A, Hesse, Territorial Highway Engineer. MT. Hesse wrote that he spends a large part of his time in answering requests for road money and trying to explain the difficulty of building or even maintaining roads with out funds. ...-
 q think I told you before" " he wrote, about our legislat- ure appropriating vastly more than any possible revenues, which means that the money appropriated for roads was on paper only, and that it never was and never will be avail able for roads. It means that the schools, the pensions, the Pioneers Home and numerous other activities for which large sums. were appropriated, will need and get every dollar of the road funds and there. is nothing that can be done about it., Theoretically, out of an ap- propriation of S300,O00 for roads we have S203,000 un- used. But in reality we have nothing. In fact we should not have used what we did"
 Pointing out that the last Territorial legislature appro- priated S2,444,923, nearly 40 Itimas as much as the first Terr- Iitorial legislature, despite a smaller population, MT. Hesse continued:
 'We have simply gone hog wild with expenditures and there is only one of two things to be done. We must either put on the brakes and curtail expenditures or we must levy greater taxes; but there is a question in my mind if the in- dustries that are keeping the Territory alive can endure any greater tax burdens at this time"
 Stating that he warned people over a year ago that we might have nothing for roads this year, MT. Hesse added:
 "We are now depending on taxes'that are yet to come in 'suppbse they are not paid. =. .. ....::j. The Territory now has a cannery oh it's hands, which it was obliged to take for tax es, and cannery buildings mean little to the1Terfitory when it comes to- paying school teach CTS salaries or running a Pio- neer HOme."t z"

SAYS UP IN ION IS
 VEER|NG ID SILVER

Discussing the silver monetis- ation question, The Mining World and Engineering Rec ord,noted British mining journ- al. says in a recent issue:
 Some economists hold that gradually, but surely, opinion is veering to the side of none tisation of silver, as a supple mentary coin to gold. Oppo- sition to the idea has been strong, especially in those countries in which supplies of the yellow metal had become largely concentrated. Produc- CTS of the white metal were ac- tive advocates of moneti5ation, and their motive was suspect ed. A broader view of the worlds financial structure and economic problems is now be- ing taken, however, and the question is being given serious consideration, not only in high official circles in Great Britain but in the United States and France as well. =. Recognition that silver, essent- tally, is not an ordinary con- modity has been spreading. Gold is desired and preferred to all other commodities in the world, but silver is desired and preferred in the most populous of the Oriental countries. The conclusion has. been reached by many economic students and political executives that the preferences of the other half of the world and the chief medium of exchange used by them must be given recognit- ion, that silver as we'll as gold occupies a unique place in the worlds business. Until this fact is recognized, potentiali- ties for expansion in trade can not be realized . The buying power abroad of a millard people is less than one half what it was, because the money which these use can buy less than half the commodities it did before. If by internat- ional agreement the price of silver could be restored by stages to the normal level, the inevitable effect in stimulat- ing business would be enor- nous. .Sil- yer will be needed to supple ment gold for exchange and re- serve purposes in the compara- lively near future. Why, ecOn- omists ask, should it not be giv- en an established position now, as one important means of lift ing the depression from which all nations are suffering?"
