Nespelem Men
To Talk On Mines
Beggs And DR.. Hudnutt Asked To
Speak At State Association
Meeting

DR.. F. o. Hudnutt and G.. H.
Beggs, local mining men, have been
invited by the West Coast Mineral
association of Seattle to address
their meeting at Seattle on October
a, on the mineral resources OF
southeastern Okanogan county.
The building of the Grand Coulee
dam, with cheap power in the near
future, and the roads that are be-
ing built into this country, is ait
tracing a great deal of attention to
the Moses mining district. The re-
duction of freight cost in the last
few years alone has been a big
item, mining men here declare. The
freight cost has been cut $22 a ton
from here to the Tacoma srnelter.
Returns received from one Of the
silver-gold properties here on a re-
cent shipment showed 100 ounces
silver and $3.50 gold.

ALL FORESTRY GRADS
FIND QUICK EMPLOYMENT

WASHINGTON STATE COLI
LEGE, Pullman, September 2-An
analysis of the graduates of Wash
ington State College who have TAX
en- the work offered in the depart
ment of forestry and range manage
ment during the past few years
shows that they are all now employ
ed in various phases of forest, range
or soil conservation work.
There is every indication that the
department will have much in
creased enrolment this fall. Already
81 freshmen have sent their high
school credentials to the registrar
preparatory to enrolment in this
department. when college opens
September 16.
The increased interest in this
work at the State College is believ-
ed due to the fact that in addition
to the work in forestry and range
management available here, the STU
dents may select other courses in
the college Of agriculture to fit them
for work with the soil conservation
service; or they may take other
combinations of courses which will
prepare them for field, forest and
range wild life conservation.

may have been started by lightning
Starting near Snake Rivers place,
it burned his barn, a large hay stack
and an outbuilding with several
pieces of farm machinery including
two mowers and rake. The house
was not burned.
Snake River had just gone to
Yakima Ito pick hops. Two years
ago while he was away during the
harvest, his house burned.
I The fire spread rapidly and went
up the hill to Owhi Flat. Ut burned
to the edge of William Picard's
place but they were able to save the
standing grain and haystacks. Sew
eral men from town were on the
fire line and later men from the
North Star and Central Peak camps

two lost boys on his hands for a
few busy hours. The boys, about
seven and nine years of age, show

declared they did not know their
names or from where they had
come.
Mrs. Robert Hunt gave them a
hearty supper, as they said they
hadn't eaten anything since the
night before, and that they had
slept on the hill the previous night.
While they were eating, Mr.. Case
telephoned Mason City to see if the
state patrol there had any report
of missing boys, but at that time
they did not have.
About an hour later, the patrol
called up and SAID that man had
just inquired for the boys and that
he would be right up for them.
When he arrived, he proved to be
the father of the smallest boy, and
explained that they lived at Osborne.

REPORT RUSSIAN KNAPWEED
IN OKANOGAN COUNTY

WASHINGTON STATE COL
LEGE, Pullman, September plant
speciments sent to the State College
seed laboratory for Identification
indicate that Russian Knapweed, a
serious perennial weed pest, is be-
coming established at numerous
points in the state. In the last few
weeks plants have been received from
Spokane, Okanogan and Whitman
counties.
The new intruder is more to be
feared by farmers than the wild
morning glory. 1t reduces crop
yields and when present in alfalfa
hay, where it is commonly found,
greatly reduces the feeding value.
Russian Knapweed spreads by
lateral extension of the dark color
ed root system, grows from two to
three feet tall, and has purple
flowers.

MINE OWNERS
UNITE GROUPS
ON STATE BASIS
Form State Wide Association To
Secure Financing For Mills,
Beggs Explains
Action Long Needed
State Chamber Of Mines Unites
Operators In Three Groups;
Beggs Representative

Organization of a state mining
mems association, now practically
completed, is looked upon by local
men as means by which it will be-
come possible for owners of small
mining properties to take advantage
of financial assistance being offered
through the Reconstruction Finance
corporation.
THE need of a statewide organ
izaItion to- represent the mining in-
dustry of the Stale of Washington
has long been felt, and the lack of
it has retarded the development of
it's mineral resources" c. H. BeggS,
pioneer mining man here, explains.
"There has been for years three
local organizations, namely, the
Northwest Mining association OF
Spokane, the Central Washington
Mining council, of Wenatchee, and
the West Coast Mineral association
of Seattle. These have done a great
deal of work, but naturally have
been more or less restricted to their
own districts.
Money Is Available
''This new set up Of the Recon-
struci5 on Finance corporation, max
ing money available for small pro-
ducing properties, and to build mills
in the different mining districts OF
the state, has necessitated a static
wide organization.
1.-The washington State Chamber
of Mines, a civic organization de-
voted exclusively to the development
of Washingtonas mineral resources,
has been formed in Seattle recent
ly, and they have appointed many
representatives already in the min
ing districts of the state. A repre-
sentative has been appointed at
Oroville, Nespelem, and the Moses
mining district. They are making a
strong drive throughout the state
for. membership, and they hope to
have many members in the Moses
mining district.
Urges Cooperation
amy person who is interested in
mining in any way is eligible for
membership. 1t is only through the
close cooperation of every i11divid-
ual who is interested, that the
states mineral resources, which are
large and include almost every min
eral that is mined, can be brought
into production and profit for the
state. Persons in the various dis
tricts should get in touch with their
local representative and aid in the
organization of their local group"
Mr.. Beggs has been named repre-
sentative for the Nespelem and
Moses Mountain district.

NESPELEM TOWNSHIP LOTS
TO BE PLACED ON SALE AGAIN
Congressman Hill Informed That
Order Stopping Sale Is Being
Revoked
News Greeted Here
Community Growth Retarded BY
Removal OF Lots From Sale;
Letter Tells Plan

Word that the Indian department
at Washington, D. c.. is taking steps
to place Nespelem .townsite lots ON
saleable bass again, and in effect
has rescinded the order withdrawing
the lots from sale, has been received
here from Congressman Sam B. Hill.
Local residents declare that this
news is of vital import to the COM
munity, since the fact that lots have
been withheld from sale has been
a chief factor in retarding the
growth of the town. A COPY of the
letter to Mr.. Hill explaining the
action to be taken by the Indian de-
partment, follows:
Office Of Indian Affairs,
Washington, Aug. 22nd, 1885.
To
Hon. Sam B. Hill,
House of Representatives,
My dear Mr.. Hill:
The receipt of your letter of July
9th, is acknowledged, making
further reference to the Nespelem
1townsite on the Colville Indian
Reservation.
AS the Indians of this reservation
have voted to exclude themselves
from the Indian Reorganization Act
and there apparently is no very
special reason why the vacant lots
of this townsite should not be re-
stored to their former salable status,
steps will be Immediately taken to
have the departmental order of
September 10th, 1884, temporarily
Withdrawing such lots from further
disposition, revoked insofar as it
applies to this townsite.
Sincerely your,
William Zimmerman, Jr
Assistant Commissioner

Interest Reviviing
In States Mines
Estimate $500 Claims Staked Out /;
500 In Okanogan
County

OILY PIA, September 2 =
Mining is on the upgrade in Wash
ington following several years of
depression dormancy." according
to present indications, Thomas B.
Hill, supervisor of the division of
mines and mining, said today.
He pointed out there were 1863
active mining corporations in the
state today, capitalized with the
secretary of state at millions of dol
lars. The past several months have
seen dozens of new corporations
formed.
Reach High Peak
During the past two years mining
activity on state-oWned lands reach
ed it's highest peak in the past 10
wears, Land Commissioner A. G.
Martin reported.
The mining division has drafted
a project under the WPA program
by which duplicates of all mining
claims records now in county audi
tors offices would be made for fill
ing in Olympia.
Okanogan County Listed
Hill estimated $4,000 claims had
been staked out in Washington,
basing his figures on preliminary
data received from nine counties.
King county alone reported 5000
claims had been filed since state
hood. Snohomish county has had
4Os patented mining claims and 500
unpatented, Okanogan county 500
patented and Chelan 88 patented
and assessed. Cowlitz county re-
ported 634 claims had been filed,
Clallam 1,123, Yakima 1000 and
Pend Oreille SIG.
The job of gathering data for a
reference bureau in Olympia will
entail labor of many PWA workers
for almost year, Hill said.
Mineral Leases Gain
Renewed interest in mining is
evidenced by the increase in acre
age of state land under mineral
lease or mining contract. Within
the last two years the number OF
acres leaped from 1882 to 22,185.
Revenue from rentals rose from ST.
705 to $3,340, Martin said.
Prospecting is being carried on in
% counties and actual mining OPP
erations in Is counties, he revealed.
Approximately 17,700 acres of land
is under prospecting lease, which
carries only the privilege of pros
pecting.
There are 4,473 acres under min
ing contracts, which permit removal
of ore and require payment Of rental
plus four per cent royalty to the
state.

The stern sense of loyalty and
