superintendent Arringt0n's Report
OF Operations.

OF Operations.
Under date Of the I'd Mr.. Arlington
wrote to the San Francisco Office: Re-
paired cable and resumed work on sixth on
Sunday morning. Finding the winze be-
low sixth level to contain some II feet OF
seepage water, / concluded, as it would be
very expensive to work from this winze
and keep out the water, to leave 1t for the
present, intending to resume work there
o. soon as w get through prospecting the
ore stope. above sixth. where we have a
face OF good ore I ON / to 3 feet wide.
Have lone no work on northeast end OF
stope since last report. At this point We
have 5 feet in width Of low grade ore,
which we shall prospect the coming week,
hoping to find an improvement in quality.
Northwest drift has been extended % feet
since last advice, and is now 229 feet. We
have fully 200 feet more to run on this
drift before getting to X X line. As this
portion OF the drift will be run immedi-
ately under the ore bodies above, we have
strong hopes OF meeting with an ore body
before getting to tho northwest end Of our
line. Have measured depth Of incline to-
day and lind II 1919 feet below Hfth level,
and being "a feet below sixth level, leaving
1879 feet TO make for seventh level. Past
week have taken out some ore above fifth
level; the prospect for much ore at this
point ia not favorable at present. Have
been prospecting on fourth and second
levels, with fair chance Of finding ore.

State Tax Payers Convention.

The State tax payers convention met in
Baltimore on Tuesday. The counties repre-
scented were Howard, Frederick, Anne Arun-
del, Baltimore county, Charles, Hartford,
Prince Georges and Montgomery. Judge
| Mewick, of Howard county, called the con-
| vention to order, and delivered IN able ad-
dress, in which he disclaimed any intention
on the part of the convention of having met
| for partisan purposes, or in the interest of
either political party. 1t was solely a
movement in favor of local administrative re-
form, in the matter of expenditures and taxa
| ton. Bad habits and loose methods of cx-
| penditurc have crept into the various depart
ments of the public service until throughout
the country the burden of taxation has been
| fearfully increased. While legislative action
was necessary to effect II reduction in State
expenditures the local taxes, he said, arc en-
| tircly within the control OF the people He
added
1--WE can determine for ourselves how much
| we will levy and in what manner we will cX-
pend it; how much it requires for roads, how
| sioners, what just or what profse allowance
we shall make to sheritfs, jailors, attorneys and
printers whether we shall increase or dimin-
ish our school funds, and what rate of salaries
| we shall pay to teachers In short, every
| item almost is within our power to regulate,
and without calling for legislative sanction"
The remedy, he thought, was for good citi-
zens to take part in county politics.
The following were elected permanent Off
GERS Hon. VIM. M. Merrick, president Hon
Joseph II. Bradley, of Montgomery, John
II. Price, of Hartford, and Charles T. Cockey,
of Baltimore county, vice presidents; John
W. Williams, of Anne Arundel county, and
VIM. b. Sands, of Baltimore county, secreta-
ries. n..
A committee on resolutions was appointed,
of which Major A. NJ Hancock, of Hartford
county, was one.
A communication from the State Temper
ance Alliance, giving figures to show that the
best way to reduce the cost of government
was to abolish the liquor traffic, was read,
but for want of time it was not acted upon.
The resolutions which were reported de-
clare the right of local selfgovcrnment the
