From The san Francisco Chronicle.
One Of the most famous mines In Leadville was
the Robert T. Lee. Its promise was discovered
when the vein or deposit was first struck but for
some reason or other people did not take kindly
TO it, and the owners tried in vain to sell an in
terest. 4 gentleman who happened to have O
few hundred dollars was besought to take a
third of IT for $500. He studied the matter. and
deeming the venture too risky declined The
Lee was a pockety mine. and some OF the pockets
contained rich ore. To effect sale the owners

DOaT STAND IDLE.


1t ls rather surprise to us that
the Levee Board has not met since
the high water fight to look over
the situation, ascertain the cost Of
the fight and provide for the work
to be done. This year, if we are
not mistaken, the means of the
Board will be rather limited, first
because part OF this years reven-
ues are already pledged for work
done and the usual interest on the
bonds has to he paid out, aud be-
cause this year also the first tenth of
the capital stock of the bonds boF
rowed on must be reimbursed; how
ever, as the River Commission is 10
meet in New York on the cath of
this month to make allotments for
The river, We had expected that the
Levee Board would have met before
this time to appoint delegation to
represent them before the Commits
mission, but so far it has not been
done. All the Levee Boards i'll Mis-
sissippi and Arkansas have some
time ago appointed their delegations;
Governor McLaurin of Mississippi,
Lawyer Percy Of Greenville, and
several Others will represent the
Issaquena Leyee Board, but our
board has rot yet chosen 'delega-
ton. AS the meeting is to take
place on the 24th instant, ii is high
time that the delegates that are TO
90 should know Of their appoint
men,, so as to consult among them,
selves, agree on plan Of action and
prepare their data. We, of course,
have no suggestion to make to our
Levee Board, but we would like to
sec our local commissioner, Mr.. j. E.
Ransdell, be one Of the appointees.
Trnly he is one Of the youngest
members Of he board, but dur;2 9
the last high water fight, he made
for himself as a Commissioner a
record that any older member might
be we'll proud of. We have that
much confidence in him that we
would feel secure if the interests Of
the levees of our parish were repre-.
sented by him before the commits
sion. His pleasant address, his
wonderful energy and tenaclty, his
clear and logical way of presenting
a statement are so we'll known that
all of us would feel that i'll his hands
our interests would be safe.
AT this juncture, we cannot afford
to remain idle; the levees on both
sides of the river above us are to be
raised several feet above the grade
Of last year, and in consequence a
great deal Of work will be needed to
put our own levees up 10 that grade,
and since the means of the Levee
Board are so limited this year, We
need all the help we can get from
the River Commission. We know
that our police jury has the greatest
confidence in Mr.. Ransdell's talents
and ability, and we think that in
case the Levee Board should fail to
appoint him as one of their repre-.
sentatives before the River Commits
sion, that it would be nothing but
proper that they send him as the
representative of this parish. No
better man could be chosen.
Since putting the above in type, we
have received the following notice for
publication:
A meeting of tho Board ofComnis-
sioncrs for the Fifth Louisiana Levce
District, is called TO convene at Delta,

Urbana, Ohio, was the secene of q
daylight lynching of negro ravisher
ON Friday last. The militia of the
city were called out TO protect the
wretch from the Infatuated citizens,
and the soldiers went so far as to fire
into the mob, killing four; but this
only inlamed the already mad
crowd, who oyerpowered the guards
and securing the bruit, stretched him
TO limb of tree. 1t is the same
in the North as it is in Southland
the ravisher meets the fate he de-
serves.
