William Bunting, former To- cal mining man, is confident that the B. and F. group in the Bridge River section, in which he is interested with James Ferguson, will develop dnto a large mine, according to re- ports from Vancouver, where he arranged for the shipment of ten tons of supplies to the property a few days ago.

SILVER AGREEMENT
 IS EXPECTED SOON

Adoption of the bimetallic principle, with silver at a defi- mite ratio with gold as a basis for the national currency sys- tenn, appears an assured but come of negotiations between President Franklin D. Roose- welt and congressional silver advocates during t h past week, according to reports from Washington.
 President Roosevelt and the silver leaders were said to be so close together on terms for the rehabilitation of the white metal that legislation definite ly fixing silver as part of the national monetary basis ap- pears certain during the pres ent session of Congress.
 The Senate silver bloc and secretary of the treasury Hen ry Morgenthau were reported virtually agreed on the lang uage of a bill which would pro- vide for a mandatory declar- ation of policy that silver be established as primary money base with gold, although it was stated that the agreement was subject to presidential approv- al.
 MT. Roosevelt was said to have consented to three-point program providing for the nat ionalization of all domestic sil- yer: reestablishment of silver as a basic money, and silver purchases by the treasury un- til 25 per cent of the metallic reserve is in the form of silver.
 The reports indicated that $1.29 per ounce would be the maximum price to be paid by the government in building up the silver reserve.
 Senator Thomas of Oklahoma and other silver leaders ex- pressed satisfaction with the results of the negotiations with the executive. Senator Thomas asserted that the taking over of domestic silver by the govern ment would mean the issuance of 125 million dollars in new currency.
 A statement by the President on the new policy is expected when the negotiations are com pleted, according to the last re- noy.tc

School Children Present
 Delightful Entertainment

The presentation of the tune full operetta Spring Glow" by the Hyder public school child ren in Pioneer Hall last Satur- day evening was in many re- spects the most artistic and fin i s h e d school entertainment ever witnessed in Hyder.
 Excellent acting and singing by the juvenile performers, dainty and colorful costuming and artistic stage settings com bined to make the performance one that will be long remem- bered by those who witnessed it.
 Presenting a whimsical tale of the conquest of Winters frosty minions by Spring and  her train of gay companions, t h e youthful participants moved through a series of de- lighful song and dance ensem- bles with a grace and charm that won them rounds of en- thusiastic applause from the appreciative audience.
 The performance was staged and directed by Miss Hortense Thomas, assisted by her moth CT, Mrs. Charlotte Whitford, teacher in charge of the school, and displayed wealth of painstaking effort in the train ing of the young performers. Miss Thomas also contributed the piano accompaniments and interlude numbers. Following is the cast of characters:

COUNTY POLICE
FORCE FACES
REFORMS
Prince Georges Considers Mer-
ger With Office OF
Sheriff

Prince Georges county police
department will be brought into
the election campaign this year
In a fight for its existence, fac
ing two divergent courses.
One is that it will be subjected
to a radical change in work, be-
cause its R1ain source Of revenue
and work in the past, prohibition
violations, has been taken from
the statute books.
Police Merger Possible
The other is that, should one
political party gain control of
both the police and the sheriff's
office, strong agitation will come
to the surface for consolidation
of the two agencies.
The two courses have become
more apparent since both Demo
cratic and Republican men, be-
ieved strong potential candidates
for sheriff, have served notice
that they will not run unless the
two offices are joined. The Of.
fices were separated in 1881 by
legislative act. The present sheriff
is a Republican. while the police
force is dominated by Democrats.
Repeal Cuts Revenues
That repeal has cut tremend-
ouSly the work of the police is
shown in police court records.
where repeal also has cut reve-
nues from fines.
Provisions are made in the an
nual levy for $4,000 for the po-
lice department and about $4,000
for the Sheriff's office. Income
in the latter is augmented, how
ever, in the serving of legal papers,
which is its largest activity. Con-
Solidation would be more efficient
and cheaper. it has been suggested
to the county's Taxpayers League,
now conducting study of county
finances.
The radical change" in the
activities of the police will include
a thorough policing system over
the entire county, it was said, t.
combat robberies and other crime.

TYD|NGS URGED
FOR GOVERNOR

BALTIMORE, Jan. 31.-In an
effort to avert what is feared
may become a serious split in
the Democratic party in Mary
land, Senator Millard E. Tydings
is being urged to resign from
the United States Senate and
run for governor, it was learned
today.
Considerable pressure is being
brought to bear on him to make
this political sacrifice, it was
understood, with those urging it
declaring that it is the only way
the party can stave off disaster.
Senator Tydings feels it is his
duty to remain in Washington
where he, as senior Senator from
Maryland, finds only 16 Demo-
Gratis and 10 Republicans his
equal or senior in point of SER
vice.
With a strong faction in the
party protesting against a fifth
term for Governor Ritchie, it is
feared unless Senator Tydings
should enter the fight that the
party will be split hopelessly and
the Republicans, who are uni
fled, will sweep into office.
Senator Tydings is the only
man who would command Suf :
ficient Statewide support to
keep the Democratic party in
power, it is said by those who
are urging him to resign and
enter the State campaign.

IN COUNTY
Large Shipments to Be Bought
So Discount Will Make Up
Difference In Levy

Montgomery county liquor prices
were reduced again today, accord
ing to j. c. Walker, manager Of
the county warehouse and Silver
Spring dispensary.
Walker said the reduction varied
from to 20 per cent. Most
whisky was reduced from 10 to
Is per cent; gin, is per cent;
Vermouth, 20 per cent; imported
wines, 20 per cent, and domestic
: wines, 10 to 20 per cent. Walker
added:
1--WE in Montgomery County
have to pay q tax of $3.50 on
case Of quarts Of liquor while
I'm the District of Columbia the
tax will be $3.50, which makes
our tax $1.S0 higher. We only
want to make q small profit and
we believe that by buying In
large shipments our discount
will make up the difference In
the tax, and SO allow us to COM
pete with the District prices"
Walker also said the poorer
brands Of liquors handled at the
opening of the diSpenSary are be-
ing discontinued now that it Is
possible to get orders filled. When
