A Helena @ ntlcman just returned from

rich ore. II is confidently claimed that
the Crown is one Of the big mines OF
Champion.
The Champions recently reported strike
on the 500 is confirmed, five feet of good
ore having been opened up. There Is
some talk of both mine n mill shutting
down for a time, however, in order To
make the stock a~ssessable. Why IL is
deemed necessary to shut down in order
TO accomplish tins result II not explained.
The Lion il now sinking for the 800.
Three shifts are employed. The Lion had

The building: according to the ideas

The basement IL 10 be a jail, and Is TO be
constructed on the latest improved plan
for jails. II will be provided with steel

for "A hose cart, extension nook and lad

II is calculated that the new city
hall will cost $4,000. OF this
sum. the new bonds will furnish
$4,000; there is $1,000 now in the city hall
fund; and the sale of the present city hall

this be deducted 5000 paid for the

likely that the city hall committee will
borrow $1,000 from other funds TO make

creditable building.

contSol of the election Of President

usulpotion of power not delegated to

not believe that the South has even

This scheme had it's birth in the

EASLEy,S O9I. MILL.

We sincerely hope this enterprise
will meet with encouragement on ev-
cry side. Our best reason for wish
ing it success, is that it will go O. long
ways towards solidifying, and perpet,
uatihg the boom that has electrified
every nook and corner of that grow
ing town. But whatever manufac-
turing enterprise is started in the
county is great help to all, and cspe-
cially is this the case with an oil mill.
No report Of any committee is need
ed to ascertain whether or not the
machine will pay. The State is dot.
ted with standing witnesses to this
fact. The first thing to do is to raise
the money, organize, get II charter
and then get the Seneca, or Green
vile oil mill expert to superintcnd the
erection of the building and placing
the machinery.
Gentlemen, you may go into this
thing to benefit your town, but, prop,
erly managed, you will soon see that
1T will be n far greater benefit to the
stock. holders. The price of stock in
oil factories is at n premium all ovcl
the State. Some of this premium
can be added to the price Of seed,
and you can easily command all that
is raised in this county. In this bus
mess there is no donation for the
public benefit.
A moderate amount:;of money invest
cd i'll an enterprise of this kind is Il
sure and rapid producer. It involves
much labor. but moro than ninety
per cent Of this is performed by ma
chincry. Let there be unity of ac-
ton, oneness of purpose, mutual con
tidonce, and the success of the enter
prise is assured.
