AMERICANS SHOULD OWN IT Natlrm are Am Ions to Preclude of the la8lnir of Control of the ltoad to French and Belgian. London, July I. The Shanghai cor respondent of the Time, under date of July 5, says: A leading native paper In discuss ing the question of the Hankow-Canton railroad, says that the Impression created by the declaration of Mr. Hay, the American secretary of state, 01 May 11th, Is one of disappointment. The viceroys do not welcome the con dltlons relating to the construction of the line which, while assuring Amer ican protection for the time being, do not preclude the transfer of the line to Franco-Belgian control hereafter. The viceroys consider that with a controlling Interest In the stocks, the rights In the concession passed from ih. Amrlmrm ta the Belgians and that thereby the contract has been vl olated. Accordingly they advocate an agree ment should be obtained by the Unit ed States for recognition of the un dertaking as American, Irrespective of the nationality, the capital, or the per sonnel employed In the construction of the line. Such guarantee Is not likely to be forthcoming. The Hunanese party strongly urges the government to concel the contract with the United States and to repay the cost of the completed section. spreading throughout Manchuria and already has reached Antung. Willing to Act as Arbitrator, Denver, July 1 Edward Btapleton, editor of the Denver Republican, has received a letter from Joohn Brlsben Walker, editor and proprietor of the Cosmopolitan magazine, of New York, ventilation showed that It came from a rich stringer almost on top of the ground.

This, however, la the first re trator In the Colorado labor troubles. Mr. Walker's proposition Is as fol lows: . ' i "More than a year ago, while In Den ver, 1 offered my services as arbi trator with a view to adjusting the difficulties existing In Colorado. At that time It was believed a settlement would be reached within a short time. "Having lived In Colorado for nine years as an alfalfa farmer, and still paying taxes there, I am deeply Inter ested In the reputation and welfare of that commonwealth. Because of my friendship among Its people, my own business Interests there and my pride In Colorado's achievements, I would prevent, If I could, further loss of good repute and any further material In Jury. "For these reasons I now again offer my services as arbitrator to the mine owners, to the miners and ta the citi zens of the state. I understand tbe Is sues and would act Justly and impar tially. If my services should be ac cepted by the parties who are at is sue, I will do my best to speedily re store to Colorado that prosperity and peace which were the boast of former years.

Official news up to July 3 Indicates that the Jap anese advance from the south has been suspended along with all other Im portant movements at the seat of war. The authorities do. not expect much more than desultory skirmishing until the weather improves. The situation Is considered satisfactory from the Russian standpoint There is evidence of considerable sickness In the Japanese camps. It Is believed here that the Japanese will surfer more from the rainy weather than will General Kuropatkln's force. One of the most striking features of the situation Is the lack of naval news from the Russian side, but It Is pointed out that If the fleets had gone out such news would be naturally slow in com ing through Russian sources.

It was the contrary antics of a com mon "cultls" sort of deerhound that caused 18-year-old Harry Brlggs to make the recent rich discovery on Grayback mountain in Josephine coun ty. In fact, the dog really kicked up the earth that brought to light the quarts stringer streaked with gold, and has since developed into a four-foot ledge with $400,000 in sight This Is the story told by a prominent mining man from that section now in Portland, and he received the Infor mation from the sister-in-law of young Brlggs. Deer have been hunted so long In the mountains of southern Oregon that they have become wild and wary, and a popular way Is to put a hound on fresh tracks and chase the deer along Its regular trail while the hunter lies In ambush to shoot It Early In the morning young Brlggs left his Sucker creek home and went 10 or 12 miles back Into the mountains among the Grayback peaks. He was accompanied by the family dog, a deerhound that had been in service for many years. In a brushy spot cov ered with leaves, fresh tracks and deer sign were found, but the dog was con trary and would not follow the scent The young master became angry and severely chastised the dog with a stick, and In the scuffle the dog scratched up the leaves and earth and brought to view a chunk of quarts. When Harry Brlggs picked up the piece of rock it was discovered to be fairly lined with gold. Further in- CG0 D In All Brando and Sizes We have them in stock.
