the reason why this is not DONE.

be proud Of the record they have made,
for when banks were failing all ovel
the country during the depression exist

the business-like manner in which they

for this state OF affairs.

SHIPMENTS STILL INCREASING.
Bingham Sustaining Her Splendid
Record as Producer.


The ore shipments from the Old Re
liable during August show even an
increase over those of July, which were
the heaviest for any month to that
time for several years. During the
month just closed S,251 tons of ore
were moved from the Bingham coun-
try, as compared with 1905 tons for
July. The Old Telegraph took the lead
with S.125 tons. Then came the Old
Jordan and Galena with $3.50 tons,
the Eighteen Eighty-nine with 500 tons,
the Coromandel with 400 tons, the
Northern Chief with 213 tons, and the
Northern Light with 30 tons.
In addition to the foregoing informa-
ton the last issue of the Bulletin con-
tains the following camp news:
The Markham concentrating mill is
running very smoothly and giving good
satisfaction to Messrs. Heaston &,
Johnson, its operators Since starting
under the management of these gen
tlemen it has been successfully treating
ore from the Northern Light mine.
Joseph r. Bush was over yesterday
from the Extra Session mine, which is
owned and operated by himself and
partners. He informed us that he was
still sinking the incline shaft on that
property, and that the showing of
ore continues good. The ore body var
les in size, but in one place it is six
feet thick Joe is highly elated over
the outlook of the property
The mill now being erected at the

THE "NEW STATE" RAIDED.
An Initial Rush to Encourage Sum
day Closing of Saloons.


One of the many saloons that are
open by side and by back entrances
was raided by the police yesterday af-
teruoon at 5 O'Clock. The New State
Saloon was the one that came under
the ban. and Solomon Nelson the pro-
prietor and A. G.. Anderson the bar
tender. with six witnesses snd one
plain drunk were brought to police head
quarters in the patrol wagon. Nelson
put up $50 cash bond for his appear
ance and Anderson was allowed to go
on his own recognizance to appear for
trial today at o'clock.
John English, Peter Nelson. Gus An
derson Olive Emerson, John Poison
and Peter Ross were in the saloon at
the time of the raid, and were booked
as witnesses.
James Nelson was also present but
he was too drunk to care much what
had transpired or was trtanspiring, SO
he was booked as plain drunk.
This raid is evidence that politics is
being crushed in the police department,
but just why a dozen more saloons
were not invaded for the same nom
partisan purpose is not known. But
such is life.
The docket shows that Nelson was
arrested for Selling and giving away
liquor ON Sunday and keeping dis
orderly house,
After the arrest officer Gillespie was
seen, and it is due to him to state
that he had nothing left to do under
fhe circumstances but to quill the
place While the officer was passing
and i'm front of the entrance of the
New State saloon, the front door was
opened in his presence and four men
admitted; inside there was loud noises
and hilarity; card games were in pro-
gress and the place might as we'll have
been wide open.' Officer Gillespie is
hot the kind of a man to make fish of
one and flesh of the other" and hence
all offenders may take cognizance in
any maner they see fit.

Nothing will add more beauty to NJ
home or place than neatness and or
DER How many places might be made
attractive and beautiful by this simple
ana inexpensive art? Take, for ex-
ample, two places-one where order
ana neatneSs do not prevail. weeds
long grass, broken fences and tbinpe

place, II you please, with one of order
and neatness and see which one You
prefer.
L wish to remind you that as baau-
tiful as flowers and shrubs are. thew
cannot take the place of neatnesS
There is nothing that can take the
place of a well-kept lawn and orderly
place. Flowers mad other ornamental
stock cannot show off TO any advan-
tage under neglect of surroundings. IF
you wish to have a pleasant and at
tractive home, keep things trim and

Beautiful surroundings not only lend
cheer and content, but also add health
and do much toward keeping the

painful to see how careless some are
about these things. Very often farms
which represent much wealth are any
thing but attractive. presenting a
dreary, lonesome aspect, which is
enough to take the very life out of
anybody. Is it any wonder that the
boys and girls talk of leaving the farm

If you have not already done so, buy

MADE SOME INCREASES.
Mill at the keystone Is Being Sue
cessfully Operated by Receiver
Williams.

Advices just received from the Key
stone properties, in the Vanderbilt dis
trict. being operated by T. c. Williams,
recently appointed receiver for the
company upon application of S. 7. Cod
be, one of the owners, are to the effect
that the mill is working away very sue
cesfully and the output of the proper
ties should be heavy enough to enable
the company to make some good pay
ments on its Indebtedness. For the
present at least, the increases in the
plant will be confined to an increase in
the drop Of the ten stamps in the battle
ry. Previously this drop was but thir-
ty-five but Mr.. Williams has jumped
it up to sixty and the mill u taking
care of twenty tons of ore daily.
When he was appointed receiver by
the. court at Reno, Mr. Williams was
authorized to put in an additional ten
stamps. but he made an examination
and decided that with the increase in
the stamp drop the plant would be able
to treat as much ore as he could take
out for the present. Later, other chan
ges for the better may be made.
