SILVER ACT
SURVIVES
FIRST ATTACK

WASHINGTON-Under the whip
OF party leaders, house democrats,
beat down by a vote of 1876 to 1876
an attempt by republicans to emas-
culate the new deal silver policy by
limiting treasury purchases of the
metal to that which is newly mined
in America
The subject was thrust before
the chamber in an amendment to the
treasury-postoffice supply bill Of
fered to Representative John Taber
of New York, ranking republican
member ,of the appropriation COM
mittee. The proposal specified none
of the money appropriated under
the bill could be used for the pur-
chase of foreign silver.
Adoption of the amendment
would have placed the treasury in
the paradoxical position of being
commanded by the silver purchase
act Of 1894 to purchase the metal
until it comprises one-fourth of the
nations monetary stocks or until
it reaches a price of $129 an
ounce. and being denied money by
CONGRESS to pay the bill.
Western congressman viewed it
as the first move toward complete
repeal Of the silver act and fought
it vigorously.
During the debate the new deal
policy of purchasing extensive |
quantities of gold abroad and then /
burying it in Kentucky also was
assailed. For the most part, how
ever, republicans centered their |
fire on the cost of the silver pur- |
chases in relation to the present |
need for governmental economies.
Taber and other republicans in
sisted the silver purchases consti-
tute an economic waste, and said I
the treasury would lose more than
if it were forced
to liquidate its purchases today. !

Rainmakers Figure IN
Klondike Gold History

FAIRBANKS, Prevail
ence of the present dry season in
the gold placer fields of the vast
Yukon watershed has excited inter
est among some old timers in the
operations of Charles NJ. Hatfield
in the Klondike in 1906. Hatfield
who operated as a professional
rain-maker in California, was en-
gagged by the Yukon territorial
government and the hydraulic op-
orators of the Klondike to make
rain to allow of profitable placer
mining operations. He was to re-
ceive some $4,000 or more provid-
ed he delivered the goods.
Hatfield went to Dawson from
California. accompanied by his
brother. The rain-maker set up his
apparatus on the lofty summit of
King Solomon dome, center of the
rich placer mining area of Klondike
Atop a high scaffold he had an en-
closed platform, to which he refused
admission to anyone but himself
and his brother. He claimed that
certain chemicals which he placed
in containers on the platform and
mixed and manipulated according to
his own secret formula would get
the desired results.
After many days of trial, Hatfield
failed to evoke the favor of Jupiter
Pluvius save to a modest degree
when a few clouds lowered over
head and emitted meager quantities
of rain.
After much dissatisfaction among
parties to the contract, Hatfield left
the Klondike and it was said he
compromised on his fee, receiving
only a portion of the sum he had
hoped for.
Shortly after Hatfield departed,
Chief Isaacs, potentate Of the Moose
hide Indian tribe which before the
advent of the white man owned all
te Klondike and its fabulous wealth
to make rain. The chief
was peeved because he had not been
given the contract in the first place
Little credenee was placed in his
claims.
Just to show them that he could
make rain, the chief announced he'd
make medicine on his own accord
and shortly afterward the heavens
iarkened and the country was COW
cred by clouds Then came thun-
1erous storms and the country was
irenched. Streams were swollen
and everyone had all the water
needed for weeks. Hydraulic min

They believe that the United

needs is advocated, since there is
less evaporation of oil under

He was so sure that in 1898 he

1899 he arranged with Capt. A. F.
Lucas to drill a real test well to
SIS feet. Showings of oil and
gas encouraged the prospectOrs to
get more backing. They started
drilling again in 1901. At depth
of 1,16O feet and oil reservoir of
great proportions was tapped.
Thus the famous Spindletop we'll

Soil ANALYSIS

A method of locating oil directly
through soil analysis is in the ex-
perimental stage. If soil analysis
works out it will streamline pres
ent methods of soil prospecting,
cut the cost of locating oil, and re-
duce the number of dry holes"
drilled.
At present two methods are be-
ing developed. One is to test the
surface soil for paraffin. The other
is to test the earth several feet be-
low the surface for the presence
of ethane gas, on the theory that if
oil is underground. the seepage of
ethane gas accompanying the crude
oil will, over a period of years rise

James leased the property. bor-
