As others see him.

The following from the Lordsburg Lib
eral is substantially the manner in which
the public "size up" Lord Thielmann:
On the first page Of this paper will be
found the article printed in last weeks
SENTINEL relative TO school superintend-
ent Theilmann. The superintendent had
a card in the Enterprise in which be at
tempted to answer this article and his
answer consisted mainly Of accusing the
editor Of the SENTINEL of falsehood. AS
the SENTINEL proves by the superintend-
ent's own letter that he denies receiving
O paper that he had admitted receiving,
it concludes 1t is not necessary to call
Theiimann a liar. The superintendent
quotes a letter from the territorial super
intendent Of public instruction, who
says the present school law does away
with the Independent School District of
Silver City, The SENTINEL quotes a let
ter from Solicitor General Bartlett who
says IL will require a decision Of the court
TO show there is no such district as the
Independent School District OF Silver
City. The superintendent seems to be
still in the hole. Let the commissioners
DO their duty and fire HIM from his Office

The letter in the Enterprise signed
r. H. Thielmann says that the members
of the board Of education Of Silver City
are "Inoompetently negligent and deH-
autly presumpt1ous". AS these gentle
men are all prominent republicans and
worked hard to secure this mans cleo
ton, it looks like a family quarrel in
which we do not care to interfere, par
ticularly as we propose not to DO drawn
off ON side issues but to keep the fact
prominently before the parents in the
County that the wrong doing Of the
present County school superintendent
has already seriously injured the cause
Of education in the County and is likely
to cause the closing Of several schools
which would continue at work we're it
not for his illegal acts, his refusal to
learn what are the duties of his office,
and his expressed determination to re-
fuse to act on what he was told he ought
to do by the solicitor general and Others.
We are happy to say that the public ex-
posture, by the SOUTHWEST SENTINEL, of
this officials wrong doing has already
started legal proceedings for the protec-
ton Of the public against him and his
acts. In his last published lettor he
says that it will cost money to take legal
proceedings TO force him to do his duty.
Unfortunately it Will, but in the name
of ali that's marvellous is the man really
such a fool as to think that this is any
excure or defense for himY Or does he
think that it will prevent the public
from getting their rights or making hin
do his duty?

A nenlnl From Mogollon.

Mogollou, December 18th, 1898.
EDITOR SOUTHWEST SENTINEL.
DEAR SIR:
Your correspondent from Mogollon
stated IT, your last issue as a "oold fact"
that tho cyanide process had proved a
failure on the ores here. 1 ask you for
the sake OF your subscribers and the cy-
auide process to correct this statement,
as on the contrary this process has prov
ed itself a perfect success. That the
Deep Down cyanide works have Suspend
cd operations, is entirely due to a me-
chOnical failure, as the mill, while 1 was
in charge, was not able to dry and pull
verize sufficient orc to justify working,
A dry, crushing roller mill was at first
thought preferable to stamps on account
of the scarcity Of water, but it was soon
learned that the drying floor was not
able to furnish the mill with dry ore, as
a great part ofthe Deep Down vein mat
ter is wet clay, the drying Of which lie
both expensive and slow.
A Huntington mill was her put in,
but the impossibility Of a rapid p%ercola-
ton Of the shines formed by the mill
soon showed itself and the Deep Down
mill was shut down. The experimental
run with Huntington mill was superin-
tended by Mr.. f. G. Burdette. The ex-
traction, whHs the ore was pulverized
dry, was from the start to the end, very
satisfactory, the lowest extraction being
65 per cent Of the silver and % per cent
of the gold, giving an extraction per
value of 70 per cent. The highest ex-
traction made was 81 per cent of the sill
yer and SO per cent of the gold, giving an
extraction per value of sS per cent. These
results are from 241 tons treated by me
in September and October. Hoping to
see this statement published, 1 am
Yours truly,

Silver, coz
The genial Judge Harlan, superintend-
cnt OF the Sheridan mill At Coonoy, was in
town Inst wook, and 10 the course Of his
remarks about mining camps, declared
Cooney to be the best in the Territory.
He went from here to Socorro on min
ing business connected with his com
pany.
VIM. Swancoat, manager OF the lead
and zinc mines at Hanover, wal in town
last week. During the month he ship
ped five cars Of zinc ere to Mineral Point,
Wiconsin. The mines have been tenn
porarily closed down on account Of the
new law %suspending assessment work,
but will undoubtedly open up again
early in the new year.
The town Of Central Is soon to have
an addition in the way OF another 8
stamp mill, besides the Owen mill, which
is almost ready to start up on their own
property. This will give Central district
the benefit Of fair and honest dealing
with mill men, something which Grant
County has wanted for years and never
has had.
The Texas mine Is stall pushing devel-
opment with good results. The main
shaft is now down about 200 feet. The
third level, 100 feet below the second
level, will DO started Immediately after
the holidays, aud drifting and stopping
will then be started, also. The last re-
suit Of the shipment OF 9l4S pounds of
ore sent to the Philadelphia Smelling
and Refnig Company at Pueblo, Colo,
netted the operators sGOS.7S. In the
mean time they were pushing down the
shaft 70 feet. Another shipment Of
about 8 tons Of high grade ore was made
on the 22n4 inst to the same works.
Under the present management the
Texas mine is holding her own second
to none in Grant County. This
speaks we'll for the property as also for
the new management, considering the
present rate Of silver. The foreman, r..
H. Cooper, is a "bird' when it comes to
a mine. lie knows his business in every
branch thoroughly.

School Entertnlnment.

The entertainment given by the pub
lie schools of this city, at Morrill, Hall
last Friday night, proved a highly com-
mendable affair.
The program opened with a flag drill
by q young girls. 1t was beautifully
executed, and the various and intricate
e%volutions through which they went
showed that their instruction had been
thorough and they are individually to
be congratulated upon their fine appear
ance.
An instrumental trio, by Misses Minna
and Clara Schultz and LYDIA Mcintosh,
was neatly executed and very much ape
preciated.
Miss Elnora Alexander sang "Fiddle
and I" most charmingly. Miss Alexan-
der always pleases her auditors with her
rich, sweet voice.
Master Eugene Warren acclaimed
"The Black Horse" in a manner worthy
the efforts Of one who had given the art
of oratory great study and practice.
The init" OF the evening was the rug
giles Family. This bright little comedy
was dramatized from a story by Kate
Douglas Wiggin entitled "Carol Birds
Christmas" The various parts we're so
well represented that it would be unjust
to mention aay one in particular. The
audience was conyulsed with laughter
over some Of the ridiculous situations in
the play, and while the cast was made
up entirely Of school children, rare talent
was displayed in ONE Of the leading
characters.
The net receipts Of the evening we're
about $50.
