w. 4. Pomeroy came down from |
Goldfield last night. He says times
are looking bright in the camp. In
few days Hall will be running ten
stamps and turning out the golden
bars. New hope OF prodiRious pros
perity is enthused into the campers
over the lately bonded claims, insuring
the working and development OF three
other mines and If they turn out az the
Oldest and most experienced prospect
ors predict, the erecting OF from two to
three stamp mills in an area OF one
square mile is certainty. Old pros
pectors now believe that the Supersti.
ton district is one big depository oil
gold, the veins running in almost every
direction and from the many rich
claims open, which show up rich, we
are assured that that district contains
one of the most extensive and most re.
markable deposits of the yellow metal
ever discovered. There is at least a
dozen claims besides those bonded that
have shafts sunk on them, from ten
feet to one hundred, come OF which are
rich in gold, while others will assay
from 81 to 500 per ton. An old miner
says that 81 ore will pay to mill as the
rock is so easy to handle and the gold
is in state that it can be easily sepa-
rated.
A number OF strangers have arrived
in town within the last few days and
in consequence the limited facilities for
the accommodation of transient travel
are more than utilized. Shortly now
the large and commodious hotel being
built by w. A. Kimball will be ready
for occupancy. This building is
two-story, with thirty-two apartments
and double balcony on one end and one
side. The lodging house OF Mr.. Long
is also well on the way to completion,
which, when done, will furnish sleeping
room for a score or more persons. For
the last twelve months Mesa has SUI
fered for the want Of needed accommo-
dations of this kind, where the pleasure
seeker az well as the business-seeker
could find pleasant place to rest his
weary bones. To the outside world we
can safely cay that by the early winter
there will be no lack OF shelter.

SATURDAY, DECEMBER ?.
BAXTER SPRINGS m 1904.

The times are growing better
right along. They have been close.
awful close, but now in every
branch of business there is a
marked improvement and it is be-
lieved that by the first of the year
times will be good again. Of course
when the money market improves
and things look brighter in the
East capitalists will then begin to
look for places to invest the money
which they drew out of banks dur
ing the senseless scare and crisis
through which we have just passed.
Baxter Springs should be pushed
to the front where these capitalists
cannot fail to see her. We have ST.
perior advantages here which other
towns in the West do not possess
and once the Eastern capitalists
discover these things our success
full future is assured.
But probably the Southwestern
Electric Railway would do Baxter
Springs more good-more substan-
tial good-than would anything
else. The officers of that road have
said that as soon as the money
market becomes easier the road
will be extended to Baxter Springs.
They are enthusiastic over the
proposition to build to this point
and would have done so last year
had not senseless scare pervaded
the country and tied up money
which would have been used for
this purpose. The officers see that
they can realize a big interest on
their money by building to this
point because our annual reunions,
beautiful parks, fine fishing and
beautiful scenery attract thousands
of people here annually who live
along the proposed line of the road,
and they know that these people
would come here oftener if they had
any such means of coming as the
electric road would afford.
But as we started out to say, times
are growing better right along and
if we will only work together, throw
aside all petty jealousies and ward
bitterness we can put Baxter long
way ahead of where she is in 1894.
Suppose we try it. What helps the
town helps the whole town and
what is the use of quarreling. Let's
put our shoulders to the wheel and
make the year 1894 the banner year
for Baxter Springs.

 The mines are located near Dos Cabezas and are named Silver Cave, Sacra and Silver Cave millsite.
 The agreement calls for the com mencement of work by MT. Hunting ton on or before Dec. l, 1893, and a sufficient force Of men must be put to work 10 extract at least twenty tons daily, and if pay ing ore is encountered a mill te erected of sufficient size to crush the twenty tons daily or what ever amount is taken out, but not less twenty tons, and it is further specified that the mill must be completed with in ninety days after commencement of same.
 The agreement further states that the S32 ,00O must be paid at the ex- pirstion of three months after Dec. l, 1893. An amount equal 10 12t per cent of that sum may be paid each month nntil the total is paid if pre- ferred, otherwise 25 per cent of three quarters of the gross receipts of bull lion from the ore worked must be paid each month until the stipulstions have been complied with.

T.e Fire Election sq..bble.

, The Fire Election sqasbble. The city council met on Saturday night at the City Hall, to take action on the Chief Of the fire department election. A large number of citizens were present al. of whom expected to see some excitement, and they were not disappointed.
 The council declared the election void on the ground that it was not held in accordance with the ordinance, as notices, calling an election, were not posted in the different engine houses.
 G. w. Swain addressed the council and cited the law regarding the carry ing on of elections and suggested that the council order the election for Chief to be had the same as county elections. each voter te cast his own ballot, in stead of allowing the secretary to vote for the entire company. This brought Frank Ryan to his feet, and Waxing eloquent, held that each company could instruct their secretary to vote in that manner, fl they SO desired. Several fremen present ventilated their views and the argument was discussed pro and con.
 The council decided that they had no authority to order the manner Of elections but instructed the Chief to call new election in accor lance with Sec. of Ordinance i7 and conse- quently a new election will be held on the 18th inst notices having been posted to that effect on all three of the engine houses.
