Jackson Shaft Coal!
ERRORS REGARDING ITS DISCOVERY.

Nearly all the writers on the subject OF
the discovery of the Jackson Coal, make
grevious mistakes in the matter of the
Shaft Coal, attributing it's discovery to
digerent persons, at different times. We
notice that our old friend Hon. Andrew
Roy, while one of the best posted of our
citizens on the subject of coal, makes the
same mistake, in his article in this issue.
The first man to find the Jackson Shaft
Coal, and bring it into use, was James L.
Rice, the well-digger. or rather well-drill-
er, who was working for Crooks & Linn.
In the Jackson Standard of August 18TH
1861, we find the following:
Mr.. James l.. Rice has sunk shaft at
the steam mill of Messrs. Crooks s. Linn,
the depth of 35 feet. The vein is 50 inch
es in thickness, and the coal is of a very
superior quality. This will work revol-
ution in the coal business in this County,
as coal can be raised by steam power at
less than one half the cost of the old plan
of drifting. The inexhaustible coal beds
in this vicinity will one day be of i'm
meQSe value.
The discovery of this coal aroused a
considerable excitement in this place, and
people began using it in stoves and CRATES.
In the issue of the paper for August 22nd,
1861, we find the following:
Messrs Crooks & Linn have sent us a
load of coal from their new bank. We
have used it for cooking for the last few
days, and find it very superior article.
1t burns quickly, and has no cinders, but
falls through the CRATE in white ashes.
1t is filled with thin strata of sub
stance exactly resembling charcoal made
from soft poplar wood. This ignites read
lily, and makes it a superior article for
the cooking stove.
This mine, as before remarked in these
columns, is at the edge of Salt Greek, at
frame mill of Peters & Hunsinger. We
have no record or recollection of anybody
boring for salt in this vicinity, in 1868.

1t is a grand, a glorious sign of pro-
gress thai respectable men are gener-
ally becoming ashamed to be seen go
ing in and out of the doggories. Just
as long as men moving in respectable
circles go in and out Of these hell-holes
so long will the dens seemingly have
sanction of respectable society. The
proper way to treat the internal busi-
ness of running men for money, is to
treat it as crime-ignore it, shun it,
stay away from it.

When Delilah clipped off Sampson S

proved that the possession of luxur-
liant hair would enable men to tear

be driven wild with the effort to sup
ply enough of Parker's Hair Balsam

sam prevents your hair from falling

Judicial Convention.

We publish a call for Judicial
Convention. Under an amendment
to the Constitution, adopted last fall,
three circuit Judges are to be elected,
in a district composed Of fifteen coun-
ties, of which Jackson is one.
There are several candidates. This
Congressional District can hardly ex-
pect candidate, as Judge Johnson of
Ironton is on the ticket for Judge of
the Supreme Court. AS a lawyer of
thirty years experience and obserya-
ton, we suggest as the three Repub-
ican candidates, Milton L. Clark of
Ross, S. M. Bright of Hooking, and
J. P. Bradbury Of Meigs. We are
personally acquainted with Clark and
Bradbury. We have seen very good
reports about Bright. A. W. Long
has shown us letter from Andrew
E. Carrick, in which he speaks in the
very highest terms of Mr.. Bright's
ability as a lawyer, and his character
as Christian gentleman.
Let us nominate for this important
office our ablest, purest and best men.

BIG TUNNEL PROJECT.

On the 18th instant Delegate Sin
giser, Of Idaho, introduced into the
House Of Representatives a bill
granting certain privileges to the
McHenry Gulch Mining and Tun.
mel Company" a corporation to be
formed by the consolidation of the
Lowell, the McHenry and the
Hagkeye Mining Companies, now
owning mineral ground in McHenry
Gulch. The bill provides that "to
encourage the excavation of a tun-
mel fifteen thousand feet in length,
more or less, designed to drain and
develop certain mining properties
situate in McHenry Gulch, Wasatch
County, Utah Territory, and also
to drain she Ontario silver mine
to depth of fourteen hundred
feet, all the land for the entire
length of said tunnel and for fifteen
hundred feet on either side of it's
proposed line, together with all the
minerals 1t may contain, bounded
by vertical lines from the ends and
sides of this grant, the title to
which shall not have vested in any
degree in individuals under the
operation of existing laws" shall
be granted to said company. The
company is required to locate and
survey the line Of its tunnel and fill
a plat thereof with the Secretary of
the Interior within three months of
the date of approval of the act; and
also, the excavation shall begin
within nine months thereafter, and
be prosecuted with reasonable dill.
igence.
Undoubtedly the tunnel pre-
posed by this bill would
be a grand thing, he
there is suspicion about the bust
mess that all is not right. One ugly
Feature is that Mr.. Singiser intro
duced the bill, fact which in it,
self suggests that all is not right.
Before Congress makes this enor-
nous grant, which may mean the
giving away of two or three Ontario
lodges, it would be well for some-
body interested to report the true
inwardness Of the affair.
