2,0oOtb of pick steel, and a car load of
steel for other purposes have been re-
ceived by the foreman of the black
smithing department of the Harvey
Peak mining company. The Miner

OF over $500 of taxes paid into the
general county fund during January,
more than $500 was paid in county
warrants. The county treasurer is
compelled by law to accept general
fund warrants in payment of general
fund taxes. Fall River is the only
county in the Hills that does that. The
result is that county warrants are de-
prcciated because Of the uncertainty of
time Of payment. Should taxes be
paid IN cash, county warrants would
be paid in the order of registration,
and there could then be made some es-
innate of the time when the warrants
would be paid. This approximate cer-
tainty of time of payment would give
a fixed commercial value to warrants.
AS it is, unpaid warrants only date
back to August of last year, and the
uncollected taxes will nearly or quite
pay warrants to date.
The attendance Of visitors at the

we believe, some of the most experi-
