The city of Spokane today faces the prospect of having no building in which to trans act Its business next year as a result of the failure of the $650,000 bond is- sue for a new city hall, to carry. Yes terday the city commissioners declar ed the proposition had carried by 17 votes, but today it developed that the state constitution requires a three- fourth majority, hence the bonds are defeated. The old city hall has been sold to the railroads and must be vacated next March. No new hall can be built this year, because there are no funds. i Joseph Smith, editor of the publica tion, "Power, Mine and Factory," of Seattle, told some news In hla ad dress last night to tho mining con gress that means much for Josephine county. Mr. Smith said: "I came here tonight because some of my folks, members of the America Mining congress and some of those Alaskana up there, have heard ot the 'pockets' down here, and they regret ted very much that they could not come here at this time, it is because they are celebrating in Seattle today and for the next four or five days this week Alaska's Golden Potlach. And you have met here tonight to la troduce the beginning ot Southern Oregon's Golden Potlach. "I have heard it discussed among Alaskans at Seattle as to whether they would go to Alaska this seasoi or go to Grants Pass, because we have had many reports there from your papers here, one for instance stating that gold pans for a time could not be secured In Grants Pass because there were so many prospec tors coming In here. "I see In the audience tonight a gentleman, a mining man, sent here from the east by capitalists to InTet&t gate your mining prospects. Invest ors are coming to Grants, Pass and I feel from what I have personally ab served In the papers and the report, on this county, as a gentleman befors me has said, It Is only the beginning."
