GOLDEN GLITTER GETS EVERY MAN (Continued from page 1) they live in the squalor and filth of their Indian comDanions. Up in this country north of Nome, is unquestionably a big oil field. Many know of it, and many a cap italist has seen it, but none want it An old timer who had been there told me that crude oil could be dip ped up from the crevices and that prospectors used it for fuel. He said the superstitious Indians were afraid of it and would not go near the burning water." The locality is such that it would be almost physically impossible to get in tho needed machinery, on ac count of the rouehness of the coun try. There are miles and miles over mountains where a dog sled could not be drawn and only men with litj-ht packs and with the aid of ropes can get over. Representatives of an oil toraora tion went into this locality two veins ago, thoroughly investigated it and abandoned the proposition. It was stated that it would require 700 miles oi pipe line to get the oil to Nome, a distance of half this length and that with the tremendous undertak ing of getting the necessary machin ery in to open the field the risk was too great for even the Standard Oil Co. So nature has locked n this great asset for a future day, when necessity will develop it. There are many coal deposits dis covered in Alaska, but I was told that many of them were worthless, that they contained "green" coal that would have to lay a few thousand years yet to season, while those that were good were entirely worthless from the fact that they were too far from the river; and the cost of pro duction and transportation would be so far above the price in the States that there would be no market for it. And in Alaska there would be little demand for the reason that wood and time are the too must abundant things. A miner talked to me for three hours about a deposit twenty miles back from the river and when he was through I showed him how the cost of getting it to the nearest river town would eat up its value, when he argued "that doesn't make any difference, we could organize a company and get some money out of it." I told him I was not a promoter.

SPEEDER ARRESTED Youth Borrows Car, is Caught Speed ing, Cannot Pay Fine - The arrest in Portland on Saturday of John Mayo was ordered by Just ice of the Peace John N. Sievers, of this district. Mayo was arrested some time ago by Motorcycle Officer Meads and was fined $25 by Judge Sievers for speeding on the county roads. Mayo asked permission to go to Portland and get money to pay his fine. Mayo was brought to Oregon City Tuesday and explained the situation. He was allowed additional time in which to secure the fine money.
