Several cases of typhoid fever
are reported to exists in the town.
Is it any wonder that such is the
case; would it be surprising if a
pestilence swept over the place
when such dirty alleys and hog
wallows are allowed to exist under
the very noses of the people? Why
cannot this nuisance be abated and
Ketchum be in the possession OF
clean, healthful streets and alleys.
Some decided action should be
taken at once. A general clean up
is imperative and once accom-
plished, let the highways and by
ways be kept in presentable appear
ance. 1t is very necessary that cess
pools should be put in at some
places to carry away the refuse, and
above all else hogs should be re-
strained from running at large or
banished from the town.

The fall and winter term of the
Ketchum public school commenced
last Monday. Sixty three pupils
are in attendance and the school
room is over crowded. The accomo-
dations are poor for the number of
children attending and the trustees
propose, if the apportionment will
allow it, to provide another room
and an assistant teacher. During
the week Mr. Grisworld, the new
teacher, has. been classifying the
pupils and by next Monday the
school will be under good Roadway.
The long vacation enjoyed by the
children has made some of them
FESTIVE under the restraint of school
rules, and for the credit of the
school a marked improvement in
this direction is expected.

On last Sunday afternoon Cor
poral Bob Warren and Sergeant
Bill Westman, armed with pick and
shovel, started out for Bald Noun
tain to prospect tor iron ore. The
trip was attended with great sue
cess and claim located on the
summit of old Badly. Bob reports
that the specimens show about GO
to 60 per cent. iron; 20 per cent.
lead; not over Is per cent silica,
and 40 ounces in silver. The OPP
erations of the two hardy prospect
ors were closely watched by Doc
Eckelston and Captain Dean, of
the Philadelphia Company, and as
soon as possible after the two former
had left the mountain the latter
were on the ground and had loca-
ton notices thereon. All attempts
to compromise have been unavail-
ing, and the rival claimants each
propose to stand firm and hold the
ground. Doc Eckelston proposes
to hire fighters and keep them on
the ground all winter.

About five weeks ago, Chester,
the three-year-old son of Mr.. and
Mrs. Ed. Cowlcy, while playing at
home with silver quarter put the
coin in his mouth and, as thought,
then swallowed it. The child was
taken at once to a physician, but
no trace Of the coin being found it
was reasonably presumed to have
passed through the trachae. Until
recently the child showed no seri-
Gus results from the accident, but
of late his breathing has been SO
difficult that Mr.. Cowley, Thurs
day, took the child to HALEY and
had him examined by DR.. Brown.
It was discovered that the coin had
lodged edgewise in the windpipe,
half the distance down, and would
require an operation to release it.
Mr.. Cowlcy returned home with
the boy yesterday and left on the
afternoon train with his wife and
child for Salt Lake city, where the
operation will be performed. The
many friends Of Mr.. and Mrs.
Cowley hope that their trip will be
a successful one, and the trouble
some quarter removed without
danger to the life Of their son.

The Democratic primary election
takes place to-day throughout the
county. In Ketchum there will be
at least two tickets in the field,
with a chance for more. Candi-
dates for place on the ticket are
making a lively fight over the Sc
lection of delegates, although a
good-natured one. HALEY will also
have two or more tickets out, while
Bellevue and Broadford will follow
suit. In the smaller precincts no
opposition is reported, and bat one
ticket will probably be brought out.
A large number of delegates are to
be selected, and no candidate for
office feels sure of his chances.
Sixty-seven votes is a good many
to secure, and the fight for majority
in the Convention and making
combinations will keep aspirants
busy until the Convention meets.

Wants 10 be Assessor.

Mr.. George Metzler, one Of the
pioneers of Wood River and well
known resident of Ketchum, will
seek at the hands OF the Democratic
convention the nomination of AS
SCISSOR and Tax Collector for this
county. Mr.. Metzler came to Wood
River in 1879 and to this town the
following year, and has been iden-
titled Herewith ever since. He is an
ex-sol,lier and was severely woun-
ded mt Atlanta. If successful in
securing the nomination, Mr.. Metz
Ter will make strong fight for
election and with an even show of
winning. The office of Assessor is
one that should be vested in a man
who has good business capacity
and who can be trusted to fulfill
the duties of the office without fear
or favor.

just beginning to get out ore after
a summers work in prospecting.
Twelve tons of King Of the West
ore was received at the Sampler on
Wednesday.
William Hathaway brought in
some good specimens of ore from
the Silver Cord mine, in Lost River
district, during the week.
A few days ago a man by the
name of Warwick, a new conner on
the River. shouldered his pick and
started for the hills northeast of
Bellevue to prospect. About one
mile from town he commenced
scratching away and hardly uncov-
cred the grass roots to start a cut
before he found a rich streak of ga
lena ore. The cut was continued
and he has a vein nearly two feet
in width and is already sacking ore.
1t is not unlikely that an extensive
body of ore will be the result Of
this tenderloot discovery.

The Challis Messenger of last
Tuesday publishes the following in
regard to the mines of this district:
THE SUMMIT.
This mine is about eight miles
northwest of the old Cape Horn
horse, on the left of the trail from
Cape Horn to Sheep mountain in
n southerly direction. 1t is owned
by Emanuel Bell, Geo. Baldwin, ID.
G. kerlee and James Cearley, and
is developed by a 20-foot level from
which they have made small ship
ment of $1,000 ore. The Clayton
Smelter reduced it. The vein is
twelve to fourteen inches in width;
although the whole of it is not so
rich, it is all profitable ore for re-
duction. The country rock of all
this region is granite. The strike
of nearly all the mines here are
northwest with a dip to the north
east. 1t carries some lead, although
this is not a common feature of the
ore Of this camp. The main body
is black sulphuret and chloride.
Many of the prospects carry no lead.
TIE JosEpuUs,
Lying about five miles west Of tho
Baldwin mountain, is owned by l.
n. Daily, Sam Robinson, A. w.
Wilson and w. M. Oster, and is
the great find of the season as far
as we are now advised. From tho
top showings this is really wonder
full. 1t, like the other viens of this
country, carries sulphurets and
chlorides and lies in the formation
usual to this part of Custer county.
1t has an immense body of float
lying in exact line covering a space
of about twenty feet in width and
extending, boldly, nearly 1000 feet
in length. Assays of the rock run
400 to 700 ounces.
THE BALDWIN
Mine, owned by Baldwin & Bell, is
of older location. Some rich rock
was shipped from this mine last
year, and this season train load
was shipped. to the Clayton Smell
ter, which went about 1925 per ton.
1t carries some lead.

A Chautnuqna Circle.

A movement is on foot among
several ladies and gentlemen of the
town for the formation of what is
known as a Chautauqua circle.
Such organizations are very popu-
lar in all parts of the country and
provides an admirable way of pleas
antly passing the long winter even
ings and at the same time cultivat-
ing the mind in the study of such
questions and subjects that may be
brought forward for discussion.
A circle in Ketchum will greatly
assist in driving away the monot-
ony of winter and all who desire to
take part in the formation OF
such or seek further informa-
ton regarding the same, are
requested to meet at Union Church
building on next Monday night.

For Fees Only.

The conviction of n man named
Hogan, on last Monday, before
Justice Peck, on a charge of drunk
and disordcrly, costs the taxpayers
of this county $44,25, over half OF
which goes for fees to the County
Attorney. There is no necessity
whatever for the appearance of
either County Attorney or deputy
in such cases, and a great saving
to the county would be made if
such an office was administered in
the interest of taxpayers, instead
of for the fees that can be made at
the peoples expense.

The KEYSTONE is under many OBJ
legations to Mrs. J. b. Harper for a
very handsome bouquet of flowers
raised by herself. The beautiful
emblems of Nature shows what
care and attention can accomplish
even in these desert wilds. Among
the collection was a golden-banded
lily, six of which were in bud at
one time on the same stalk. The
dearth of water is a serious draw
back to the successful culture of
flowers here, and the few raised are
the far more sweeter on account of
their rarity.
