ter of the road now known as tn
Pacific highway. ' When the state
paved that portion a paid the en
tire cast without negotiating .with
the Woodburn officials as to reg
ulation rights. - ...
After tne bUhway - had been
paved the e.ty refuted to give up
that portion. At the north end of
the cfiy limits placed a sign,
w;t back Uyond the intersection
ou a street leading to Woodburn.
on which appeared the notice
"8am down to ?0 miles an hour'
To a tourist not acquainted with
conditions it might easily tx tak
en for granted- that the 20-mile
regulation was for the street on
which: it appears.
I tumor Ara Heard
No pother aigi . appears on the
one-mile stretch which adjoins
Woodburn except the notices of
several of the streets leading to
the city of the 15-mile regulation
while going 'to the city with an
arrow to indicate the direction tn
which the regulation is effective.
On the highway sign there is no
arrow to indicate the direction of
the restricted r rea and contrary
to the usual sign appearing on the
Pacific highway it gies no reason
for the change of speed regula
tion. ; i
These conditions ' scrv?d as a
background for 5 era' stent rumors
in which the Viodturn traffic of
ficer, ' Flay Har n id. was said - to
have arrested Innocent tourists
traveling only 21 or , 22 mile an
hour who- had- tailad. to notice the
Sign, or if they had, thought it
was effective only on the street
leading to the city.

Guts for Roadways Disclose
Paying Veins, of Valu
able Mineral
ANCHORAGE, Alaska. SepL 3.
: A number of gold strikes have
b ni made in the rock cuts blast
ed out of the precipitous walls of
the Turnagain Arm division of the
United States railway between
Seward and Aathorage. More
than a dozen gjod t iaaurea nave
been cut and prospectors and min
ers are preparing to begin devel-
opment work.
The only similar condition
known to exist waere a railroad
became a prospector and opened
mineral wealth v. as the great Co
balt strike where the roadbed cut
native silver. ,
The Tnrnagala Arm division of
the railroad has been costly not
only, in construction but mainten
ance. It, has ieen necessary to
erect numerous sjjowsheds to pro
tect the track and a major por
tion of some 40 mi'es of roadbed
Is literally blasted out of solid
rock.
Recently whn the strike was
niade a lGrwoo.1, prospectors be-
fan to examine th quarti fis
sures in tbe various roadbed cuts
and values ranging around $-
per ton were found In veins twenty-odd
feet In width. There was a
rush to locate and a strip along
the. roadway a distance of 12 miles
has been staked.
Like many instances in mining,
these veins had been passed over
by thousands of men who at times
panned the rock for colors. Whlto
some veins fhew free gold, tbe
.major portion of them indicate
what is known as cyaniding ores,
necessitating concentration.
To facilitate development and
encourage miners, the United
States railroad officials have
granted easements, and issued or
ders for trains to ser.ve the, pros
pectors In any way possible, even
to allowing them to utilize the
snow sheds for camps.
Prospecting farther back in tbe
hills reveals rlc free-muling ores
and a strike made July 30, lf
miles northwanhindicates that tbe
quarts belt, extends at least 12 by
15 miles.
