At the Armory on Saturday last the final stops were taken for disbanding the Emergency Corps and Red Cross Society of this city. Prom time to time during the past year, the members have been called to gether for this purpose, but each time requests have come asking the officers to defer this action, as their services wore yet needed. Feeling that all is now dono. and that It has discharged Its obligations and f Hi filled the objects of Its organization, the society passes from active duty to the page of history. What this history Is, Is too well known to need reviewing, as It has been given repeatedly to the public through the col umns of The Oregonlan, and elsewhere, since Its first meeting. April 26. 1S?S In closing Its reports and appljing the balance on hand to the Monument Fund, the society -wishes once more to thank in the heartiest manner, each and every one business houses, corporations and In dlxiduals In this city and throughout the state, "who. by active and moral sup port, have made possible the grand work accomplished. This work has been far-reaching and has made for Oregon a name to be loved and remembered by the thousands who have been assisted and cheered on their way through the united service of its Red Cross Society. What the future has In tere oannot be known, but In time of calamity or distress the women who have contributed to membership will be found ready for action. tlons. On Saturday the ballots, boxes, pens, paper, registration books and pen cils -will be sent to the home of the chairman of each polling precinct, and on Tuesday morning the chairman must bring these articles to the polls himself. The polls will be open from 8 A.M. until 6 P. M. There are 20 canu.aates for Pres idential Elector and six for Representa tive. The returns should come in rapidly. There are only five names to count on each ballot, and the city returns should all be 4n within a few hours after the polls close. While the votes in the out side precincts will all be counted In a very short time, many of the Judges -will probably not bring In the returns to the Clerk until the next morning. Copies of the election laws will be given to the chairman of each election board on application to the County Clerk, By securing them early the chairman -will have ample time to study them and be well versed on all points on tho day of election.

For he June election, 75,000 ballots -of "each kind were ordered. The law pro vides that each precinct shall have four ballots for every vote cast at the prelous election; Fewer ballots are required this lime than In June because there were less votes cast then than In June. 1S9S, due to tho fact that some electors failed to register, and of the number registered 4000 did not vote.

"Nome Is not a fake," Is the verdict ot I. B. Hammond, a Portland business man, w ho returned from the famous beach, yes terday, after spending five months' there. He took up a $15,000 dredging outfit last Summer, which was Intended to work that portion of the beach below the line of low tide, but was not discouraged because his experiment failed there. He had the out fit taken off the huge barrel-like rollers j nianai unnn a siww at considerable expense, and this was towed around into I Snake River, wnere again me imo "" was too scarce to make areaging a suc cess. He then cast about until he discov ered a place where dredging would pay, and -found it on Solomon Creek, whicn empties Into the sea, some 35 miles below Nome. A small phial of this gold brought down by Mr. Hammond shows the precious met al to be of a dark, flaky order, the nug gets ranging In value from 90 cents down. He prospected the bars on Solomon Creek and found them to consist of a mica schist, which is easily worked by the buckets of the dredge, and figures on good profits by leasing a number of these bars; which he will work on a royalty next sea- 8on "So far as the beach is concerned, Mr. Hammond said, "the country was consid erable of a fake, but there was no need of everybody 'getting cold feet' and giv ing up In disgust, on that account. Those who took their outfits and went Into tha Interior have begun to return to Nomu now, and nono of these parties pronounce the region, a fake. In fact, all those that had arrived before I left, on the 20th ot October, brought from $300 to $15,000 in with them. There wfis no reason at any time for a working Tnan to go broke, an with pick and pan he could make from $5 to $S a day on the creeks to the north and east. It Is true, the cpuntry was stakea off four or five times, but wnat oi inatr A man with the grit could keep on work ing Just the same." Mr. Hammond finds considerable fault with the way the laws are administered up there, however, and says that an or ganized gang make a business of lawing rightful owners out of the claims as soon as these prove valuable. Receivers were often named to take charge of certain placer mines, several days before litiga tion was Initiated, and one McKenzIe, v t-oo annsitntpri hv the Administration. has recently been arrested for practicing fraudulent metnoas in connection wiiu ma office. Mr. Hammond's diggings on Snake River were not molested, but they would have been had they proven valuable. "Where we made the mistake," he con tt..A "matt fn nnt rmendine a season In prospecting before we went to the expense Of putting UP a Dig pianu an uittt way we would have known Just what machin ery was adapted to the country. How ever, ours was the only expensive outfit up there which was made to pay expenses, and put Itself on good permanent footing for the future. There are many wrecks of dredgers along the beach which might have proven profitable ventures ultimate ly, had their owners not decided to be come disgusted so soon." Mr. Hammond thinks that between 7000 a oftivi ncrsrinn wfll "Winter In Nome. He saw no destitution there, although a cer tain proportion or idle men were in mo streets, but not more than in any mining camp of the same sise.

OTHER BRIDGE MEN TO GO. It la Understood That All tho Old Tenders Must Leave. "The old bridgemen havo all got to go," said a discharged gateman yester day. The Way he came to find out was when he asked the County Commissioners what they had discharged him for. In referring to the matter yesterday ne said: "The Commissioners explained that the positions had all been promised, from foreman down, before election, and that the county committee was getting very restive over the retention of the old hands so long. 'We have nothing against you,' they told me. In fact, we have al ways known you to bo reliable and indus trious, and we regret very much to be compelled to let you out.' t "Just as soon as tho new hands al ready appointed learn the ropes," he con tinued, "the old ones will he dropped, until an entirely new force has manned the bridges." In regard to those bridges whoso draws are worked by electricity, this man said the changes would be a menace to the public, as accidents would, occur quick as a flash -where tho men were not thorough ly up In their "business. , , '1 have over been an earnest party worker, and did my best toward the suc cess of the party Jn power, but It did me i no good.
