The Llppy-Davis claims are situated 27 miles northeast of Katalla, adjoln- lnor the Cunningham claims on the east. and are declared in the prospectus and advertising matter of the Alaska Petroleum & Coal Company to be of enormous value, containing coal as good as that of the Pocahontas field.

KLAMATH FALLS, Sept. 23. (Spe cial.) The dam built by the Reclama tion Service across Lost River, to di vert the waters of that river Into the Klamath River, was completed this week by the placing of the flash boards on top of the dam. These Hash boards will force a larger amount of water through the diversion channel in high water, but are not to be used in low staves of the river. The buildings for the caretaker and for storing and housing machinery have been completed, and the slopes of the banks prepared for seeding. The grass on these slopes will be irrigated with water pumped by a small gas en gine. The effect of the diversion this sea ion on the level of'Tule Lake has not been so great as was anticipated. because the diversion channel was not ready for the Spring floods and because the rainfall this year has been exces sive. This has brought a heavy run off into the lake aside from the water carried through Lost River. There has been a considerable recession ' of the waters of the lake, notwithstanding these facts.

KELLOGG HER E Good Times Panacea for Po litical Ills, He Says. CITY'S GROWTH AMAZES 'Trust" Buster" Refuses to Talk on Politics, but Takes Occasion to Rap Proposed Recall of Judges in America. "The period of political agitation and Industrial unrest Is waning from natural cause that is our National prosperity. Good times, good crops and good business ought to be a pan acea for the political ills that have been with us." Such is the message of cheer and ontlmism that Frank B. Kellogg, of St- Paul, president of the American Bar Association and "trust buster" for the Federal Government, gave last night upon his arrival in Portland from Seattle. Mr. Kellogg declared that the Ameri can people as a whole have ever held the judiciary In the highest esteem and that what criticisms had been of the courts have had the effect to place the judiciary on a still higher plane. Dau't Sees In Recall "Reform does not come through blare of trumpets, and the greatest danger that ever threatened the in tegrity of our Government Involves the strict independence or tne judiciary, for you cannot take that independence away without ending our Government," said Mr. Kellogg In referring to the recall propaganda. "I repeat what i 6aia oeiore tne Seattle Bar- Association- last Saturday night, that the judiciary is the cor ner stone -of our American Govern ment. If it is necessary to decide between- man and man, how much more necessary is it in solving our Govern ment disputes. In this movement, we. as lawyers, ust rise as leaders of true public sentiment. That sentiment will be for the best and prove the present epoch the greatest in our history." This is the first time Mr. Kellogg has visited Portland for many years. He expressed amazement over the beauties and growth of the ctyy. ' City's Prosperity Interests. "It ia a matter of great surprise to me to find such a beautiful, modern An Frank B. Kellogg, President American Bar Association and Famous Trust Prosecutor. and bustling city," said Mr. Kellogg. Portland has made great strides.' Its fine streets and imposing business structures are a revelation to me. 'I note on every hand that there is prosperity here. In the Pacific North west, as well as the Middle West, there are big crops and good times. Our people are all busy. There is every In dication that prosperity will continue for an Indefinite period." Referring to politics, Mr. Kellogg as sumed a trust-busting attitude, saying: 'I am not in politics. I have finished all the Government cases In my charge. I am now a private citizen and just practicing law." He will remain in the city until this afternoon, when he will leave for San Francisco on private business. He is accompanied by Mrs. Kellogg. They are registered at the Hotel Multnomah. Births. TOMASELLI To the wlfe"of Philip Tora aselll. 532 East Sixteenth street, September 2. a daughter.
