News of gold discovery, a big free milling body of ore at Quartz creek, a tributary of McDames creek in the Cassiar mining district, was brought here yesterday by pros pectors who came out from that country to Telegraph creek where they took passage down the Stikine river on the Hazel B No. of the Burlington Transportation com pany.
 The discovery was made in the summer of 1893 by c. F. Collison who lives at Fort St. John in the Peace River country.
 Collison came into the Cassiar overland with a pack train by way of Fort Nelson to McDames Post. He prospected for quartz on the ground on which D. L. Wing of Wrangell has held placer leases for several years, and on adjacent areas.
 On his way home to Fort St. John last fall Collison left a number of rock samples at Fort Nelson. He kept his own counsel when numer- ous assay receipts gave returns up to $17O and $1SO, but early this spring, accompanied by his three sons, he returned to the district again using the overland route, and staked forty claims.
 Word of the discovery did not reach others in the district until A. Marion came out from there about a month ago, as there was no freight this summer and conse- quently there were no boats on Dease river After seeing Marion's ore samples and hearing his report practically all of the men in that district who could make the trip went to Quartz creek. They were well pleased with the results of their prospecting and between 40 and 160 claims were staked.
 Among those who staked besides the Collisions, were John Simpson, Joe Nadeau, Louie Hohense, Joe Saxsmith, George Pendleton, veteran Cassiar mining man and P. H. Casey, who represents California interests and has been Investigating the Pendleton properties during the summer, Glen Hope of Telegraph creek and Pat McLamar were figur- ing on stalking three groups of eight claims each.

Portland Poultryman
 Will Move to Wrangell

Homer Worden, and his friends, MT. and Mrs. Frank T. Miller of Portland, Oregon, who have been visiting MT. Worden's mother and step-father, MT. and Mrs. A. Vreatt for the past ten days, will leave on the Northland Tuesday.
 MT. and Mrs. Miller, who own the Hollywood Poultry Farm, out of Portland are selling out soon. They will return here in the spring and build home.
 MT. Worden, who has been field man for the Grown Feed Mills Co. of Portland for the past five years, has had an exceptionally pleasant vacation this year on account of the fine weather at Wrangell.
 He and Mr. Miller have had the finest trout fishing in their experi- ence at Pats creek and Konk's creek. Yesterday their catch includ- ed a big number of 17-inch cut throat trout, besides Rainbow in abundance and several Eastern brook trout.
 MT. Miller states that the early spring that obtained all through the west this year, threatens to bring a big financial loss to poultrymen. Turkey poults were matched so much earlier than normal, that the birds arematuring far in advance of the Thanksgiving season. To off set this situation and to hold them back as much as possible, poultry men are cutting down on feed, ranging the birds more than under normal conditions and will put them on a fattening ration during the last two weeks. Otherwise ;he birds will get prime, then go staggy and will fall into the lower commercial gradings by Thanksgiving.

MINING MEN CHALLENGE
 REGENT GOVT CONTROL ACTS

SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 26.- Criticisms and defenses of the recent governmental reforms imposed on the mining industry were heard here yesterday at the American Mining congress, western division, in the second day of a week-long convention.
 Frank H. Probert, dean of the college of mining of the University of California, sharply challenged what he termed experiments of the government in regulating the indus try He warned of a dictatorship over the industry and was especi- ally vehement in denouncing article "A of the MIRA labor rights section.
 Assertions were made in round table discussions that the acts of the labor board sometimes have been based on misunderstanding due to a lack of knowledge of prac- tical phases of innings individual disputes. This resulted in further industrial unrest, it was asserted,
 Some operators said that they never had any trouble with labor, but that now troubles might arise through "meddling theorists" One speaker said that proper financing was made difficult by state and fed eral laws governing the issuance of securities. It also was pointed out that industrial accident insurance and taxes place heavy burdens on mining operators.

CHICAGO-(FP) - Mayor Kelly,
whose Immediately predecessor Tony
Cermak was assassinated, is seeing
things hal make him nervous and he
is reacting in panicky suppression Or
ders. The right of citizens to see
newsreels and films exhibited else
where has been severely curtailed by
the mayors order. The right to as
semble and parade in the streets has
also been trimmed down. Other sup
pressions are in prospect.
When mobs in Paris and Vienna be-
gan fighting early this year, Kelly
forbade the movie houses to show any
newsreels in which riot scenes or con-
flicts with the police took place.
Though the Chicago Civil Liberties
Committee protested this arbitrary or
der the film exchanges hesitated to
make a test case for fear the mayor
would crack down on them in other
ways.
The CWA demonstration in Mime
apolis only strengthened the mayors
fears.
@*#
Then the factual film, Hitler's
Reign of Terror, which had been pass
ed by the board of censorship, was
stopped by the mayor after the Ger
man consul had objected to it. The
film was then mangled to cut out
most of the showing of Hitler's cruel
and barbarous acts against liberals,
pacifists, radicals and Jews and it is
now showing under the censored title
of Hitler's Reign.
The Chicago Daily News, whose
chief correspondent was p~ressured out
of Germany, and the wife of whose
Vienna correspondent was recently ar
rested at a free speech meeting in
Austria, thinks. the mayor went too
far. eve do not require a political
censorship in Chicago" it editorial

Whether the plea of i've 100 or
CARNATIONS for a permit to march
through the downtown district on May
day will be granted is still undecided.
The police chief has refused to grant
it so far, though thousands Of teach
ers paraded in a complete tour of the
loop on Saturday. The chief wants
the workers to march in the outlying
districts.
Demonstrations by Chicago workers
on parade have been very impressive
since the depression set in. They have
helped to keep Chicago relief at a
relatively high level and they have
forced attention to many grievances.
The mayor is reported to fear that the
habit of marching together will breed
the habit of doing other things to-
gether for the advancement of the

THREE
JUDGES

CHICAGO - (FP) - Wilkerson,
Woodward and Lindley, three federal
district judges, may find themselves
out of a job if plans attributed to the
house subcommittee that has been re-
searching into r~eceivership rackets in
Chicago go through. Wilkerson and
Woodward, according to the plan
which has met an evasive denial in
Washington, are to be impeached.
Lindley is to have his job abolished.
Wilkerson is the insult attorney who
issued the notorious injunction that
broke the rail shipments strike in 1922
soon after ascending the federal bench
at the recommendation of Harry
Daugherty, the nauseous Harding at
torney general who resigned under
fire. Since then Wilkerson has hand
led many receiverships in the smelly
Chicago area. Pres. Hoover tried to
promote him to the circuit bench but
scrupulous senators, aided by Attor-
|ney Donald Richberg, were able to stop
that.
Woodward, a politician-lawyer adj
vanced to the district bench by Hoov-
er, is also in the receivership tolls.
His son Harold, also a lawyer, was
making only $500 to $4,000 before
Papa Woodward got his life job as a
judge. The next year Harold earned
$4,000 and the following year, the
third of the depression, Harold made
S16,412. Papa Woodward had switch
ed a lot of receivership business to the
firm Son Harold worked for. Even
the Chicago Bar Assn. registered a
kick.
Lindley got his job as a Judge by
special act of congress at a time when
the late Sen. VIM. B. Mckinley, then
traction and utility boss of downtown
Illinois, wanted a safe man on the
bench. Lindley got in a hot spot by
his actions as judge in the insult re-
ceiverships. One after another of his
