A gentleman in Raleigh offered
TO bet that there would not be fifty
townships in the State to return a
majority OF votes in favor OF the
school TAX at the August election.
1t becomes more apparent each day
that there is a very strong sentiment
among the country people against
the TAX. We don't believe that
there will be many votes in favor of

we have heard about three voters 10

Officially Announced III Havana That

EVIDENTLY BLANC0 Is A TYPEWRITER
Most Elaborate Efforts of His Friends
Failed to Awaken Any Popular
Enthusiasm at Weyler's Re-
ton in Spain.

Havana, via Key West, Fla, Dec. 49,
1t is officially announced that the Spanish
forces, under the command of General
Pando, in the province of Puerto Prin'
oipe, have been pushing the insurgent
leader, General Maxlmo Gomez, 80 close.
ly that he has been obliged, with about
200 men of his escort, to seek refuge in
the woods and mountains of Las Deli
oias.
The commissioners sent by General
Pando to the different parts of the island
with instructions to negotiate with the
insurgents for the acceptance of the
autonomous feature of government
proposed by Spain, have not returned,
which seems to confirm the report that
some of them have been hanged by the
insurgents and others elected to remain
with the enemy.

fact that a holiday had been carefully
chosen and that the hour of his arrival,

passed off amid almost complete indif-
ference. One thousand five hundred sup

all of whom hope to secure Weyler's ad-

were few cries and only little enthusiasm

ANOTHER STRIKE AT BLAND
An Enormous Body Of High Grade
Ore Encountered in the Iron
King Mine,

In the assessment work now underway
on the Iron King mine an immense body
of ore that will pay to ship to the smelt-
ers at distance without sorting has been
struck. The vein is pronounced by all
who have seen it to be the same vein with
that of the Lone Star mine, at much
greater depth, says the Bland Herald. The
discovery "a in patt uf the miae wnlch
las aitherto teen but little prospecued
and IN which hardly any development has
been prosecuted.
On Tuesday, B. FL. Shaw, the custodian
of the Iron King and the same oompanys
possessions at Allerton, shipped lot of
samples from the new strike to the own
ers in Denver. 1t is generally declared
that as soon as these samples are re-
ceived and tested and full realization of
their value aud extent are known by the
owners of the Iron King, immediate steps
will be taken to complete arrangements
for the steady operation of the property.
The strike was quite unexpected and
proved to be somewhat of surprise to
many, as heretofore work in the mine has
been of nature little calculated to show
up its real value and enormity.

ed to go to Washington to look after the
matter.

DECIDED AGAINST LAND co.
Patrick r. Ford Wins Case in United
states Supreme court Involving
$4,000 Acres OF Land on Max
we'll Land Grant.

Washington, Dec. 13-The decision of
the Supreme court of New Mexico, in the
case of the Springer Land association vs..
Patrick p. Ford, was today sustained in
an opinion by the United States Supreme
court rendered By Chief Justice Fuller.
The question involved was whether a
mechanics lien upon an irrigation sys-
tenn covered only the bitches and rivers,
or in addition to these the lands under
ditch. The court held that the lien applied
to the lands held under ditch as we'll as to
the ditch itself in this case, involving
20 600 acres.
ITO limit the land upon which the lien
was given to strip of land Elk feet in
width and 26 miles long, which was ac-
tually occupied by the ditch and to ex.
olude the tract for which the ditch was
con nstructed to benefit by its continuous
operation would" the chief justice said,
"be unreasonable and circnmscribe the
meaning of that statute" This decision
was based on an act of the territory and
in reading his opinion the chief Justice
said the Jurisdiction would depend neces.
sarily upon the local statutes of the diff
fersnt states and territories, and to the
variance In their terms, Judicial decisions
must necessarily conform.
