KREKA, Calif. (AD Smoke as thick as heavy fog hung over this town near the Oregon bor |deY today from P forest fires raging in Siskiyou county. Dry ash from 30.0O0 acre fire only five miles from the city limits shifted through the fog like hot snow.
 The rain of dry, but not dan jgeroMs, cinders was so heavy Hast night that fire chief Dern-
 ard Pollard ordered the $500 residents of Yreka to connect their garden hoses for protec- ton.
 Charred chunks of bark and other ash, he said, were So big there was danger they soon be come s'hot" and start fires with in the city. The garden hoses, and restrictions or watering lawns or gardens, were 3 pre- caution against this eventual ity.
 The rain of cinders died down today. But the smoke was 50 thick it was possible to see for only two blocks.
 Bumpers from the city and as far away as Stockton - B. bout 250 miles south were spaced along the outskirts of
 the city facing the roaring flames. Bumpers capable of drawing water from creeks to pour onto the flames, arrived this morning from Sacramento, Stockton and Susanville to join th's protective lime.
 Nearly 2,5OO fire fighters are drawing on Yreka for supplies All men with any experience in fightir4a fire left town to join

New York water front wuIkout
 may spread in east

NEW YORK (P) A walkout of longshoremen tied up the entire port of New York today Their leaders said the walk out might spread along the whole east coast by Monday.
 The work stoppage stemmed from a dispute between the International Longshoremen's Assn, independent, and the New York-NewJersey water front commission. The union contends and the commission denies -- that the commission has been harsh and discriminatory against the ILA.
 William V. Bradley, ILA pre- sident, said he had received a report 5000 Philadelphia dock workers were walking out this afternoon to attend a protest meeting in sympathy with the New York men. He said another 4,000 in Bos ton will saw off the job tonor- row 10 attend a similar meeting "This is spreading very rap idlv," Bradley told newsmen. "If something isn't done by Mon day. we'll have the whole coast tied up"
 The shipping industry esti- mates that such stoppages cost a million dollars day.
 Bradley, at 12:15 p. m., de- clared:
 "The port of New York is now tied up."

 Sun-baked Los Angeles felt another blast of blistering heat today and the sodden Texas gulf coast got another drenching from squalls
 The eighth straight day of loo or higher temperatures was forecast for Los Angeles where 73 deaths have been at trlbuted to the heat wave.
 The heat has taken a heavy toll of chickens and rabbits Tomatoes and cut flowers have been damaged extensively. The avocado and walnut crops have been heat burned.
 One of the worst forest fires in Pacific coast history was burning near Yreka little northern California logging town. Some 100 acres were a. blaze
 Waves of flarne swept across tens of thousands of acres of parched timber and brush land elsewhere in California ana neignboring Oregon.
 However. fire. fighters re- ported they had checked a naaior fire in the Sequoia Ma tiona1 forest in east central California. The fire once threa tened the famed grandfathers of giant iSequoia trees. One of these, the Gen. Grant. is be- lieyed to be the oldest tree in the world.
 The squalls along the Texas coast were from the backlash of the tropical storm Gladys. The storm, finally breaking ap in Mexico's mountains, dumped up to almost Il inch es of rain in some Corpus Christi bay areas.
 Cooler air extended from Kansas eastward to New York state. Aberdeen, s. D. had a minimum today of 47, compar ed with 69 Tuesday.

An Editorial

We were asked to write an editorial giving the people of Sitka the very devil for not taking more interest in city politics. But, an editorial is not written on the spur of the mo- lment, nor is it something which takes a dig at someone or something.
 Interest in running for office i'm Sitka has reached a low ebb - but the reasons behind it are as clear as can be. l. -- Several years ago an attempt was made to make the election two party affair -- Republicans against Democrats That didn't work but the after effects are still with us. Men wait until they are tapped by 3 private caucus.
 2. - No woman i'm the past ten years has ever been elected to the city council, school board or SPU. At times they have run but the fire because of their fennininity has been so great that other women will not put up with the name calling which is whispered behind upheld palms.
 B. - The creation of boards, and the very fact that these boards are accomplishing nnaray things, has taken a large num- ber of prospective candidates oat of the running. They arc working for the betterment of the city without having to enter the lists.
 4. - The fact that the only time anyone goes to am elective officer concerning their actiV- ities is to jump down their throat" I'm fact this is so great, that several people have stated
 privately they can't afford to
 be on the city council, SPU or school board.
 ] So now that filing time is
 here - stop and consider if ] you are guilty of any of the a.
 bove. If you are - and that in-
 cludes a lot of Sitkans it is
 time that you take a construc-
 tive interest in Sitka. Try to
 help and not EshoIler" about what your elected and appoint
 ed representatives do.

the mines at which men went deep
into the earth to loosen and pick
up the ore which was later taken
by hoist and shaft to the surface.
There are still many men who
work In mines Of this type and
there are some OF them who hVe
lived through the change from
the candle to the electric light.
Fifty years ago the only light
used In an underground mine
came from a candle fastened to
the miners hat. Each man was
given three such candles for a
shift. The candle was inserted In
holder which hooked onto a rein
forced from OF a soft oiled hat.
Sometimes the candle was fasten-
ed to a spike In the large mining
timbers to give light where need
ed. Beginning about 1913 the first
carbide lamp came into under
ground mines. This was hooked
TO the hat and often counterbal-
anced by the weight of a railroad
spike attached to the back Of the
hat,
In the larger mines there are
now wired electric lights In the
