Mr.. Editor, you can settle quite dispute
in regard to the number of copies of the
REGISTER that are circulated every week.
Some say if it has circulation of 500 copies
per week, it does better than any other coun-
ty paper in the Southeast.

twice 500, and increasing steadily. Tell the
bows if they doubt it, to come down and see
our list.-ED.l
Boss, last week you got away with us on
the tank business in the bottom of the Shaft.
Maybe it is new way to spell it, or maybe
it is the way the "Drifter" spelt it. If it is,
he must lose no time in going to the ma
chine shop for repairs, because he needs a
new slide-valve, side rods, rocker-pin, and,
maybe, chuck. The place in the bottom
is Sumph, in which is collected or drained
the water from the mine.
