VIII They Ever Let UpP

Herman Rsinbold, the Omaha chem
list, who is investigating the Uranium
property of Dir. Won Davier, or Anna
creek, returned from the camp Saturday
night and went to Omaha and New York
at which latter place he will enter into
a contract with representatives Of for.
eign syndicate, who will give q market
for at least S25, 000.0 90 worth Of uranium
ore per year. Mr.. Reinbold has a lease
and option on the property He saws
the ground looks first-rate, there being
q four foot vein of high grade ore ex-
posed and he has the utmost faith of
ultimately developing a fine industry
Mr.. Reinbold expected to stop at the
Southern Hills u few days to lnvestigate
a property said to contain a valuable de-
posit Of walfram. This is a rare metal,
used chiefly in hardening steel in max
ing mining machinery. He was asked
to investigate an alleged deposite of
manacite, a valuable mineral, used on
gas jets, principally, to give a white
light. 1t is worth 81 a pound.-Pioneer
Times.
The Pioneer-Times is probably not
aware of the fact that Prof. Reinbold
was told repeatedly in Deadwood that
there was nothing in the way of miner
al prospects in this district that was
worthy of his attention, and further
that he was strongly advised to ignore
the same, but he came nevertheless,
and expressed himself as being more
than pleased with the district, Which he
pronounces the most interesting and
promising mineral section he has visit
cd in the Hills. He spent some time in
the investigation of our mineral de.
posits, and vas so f~avorably impressed
that he at once determined to revisit
this place in a few weeks for 4 more
extended examination of the district,
in which he became to some extent
financially interested while here. 1t
would be interesting to know just when
Deadwood was going to let up.

Long Record or Faithful Service.

John w. Legg, Esq, Of Frankfort
the gallant old Confederate veteran,
who carries an empty sleeve, has served
the people of Greenbrier for six con-
secutive terms, or period of twenty
five years, as Assessor of the Upper or
Second district of this county. He has
made capable and an efficient AS
SCISSOR, as all will conclude from the
fact that he has been so often reelected.
Mr.. Legg has always had opposition
when candidate, both in the prima-
ries and at the general election, but he
has never had any serious trouble in Be-
curing the support of majority of the
voters, and generally this majority has
been very large. During this quarter
Of a century Of public service, he has
registered the births of children now
grown with families around them and
the births of these children's children
he is now registering as he registered
the births of their parents years ago.
We doubt if there be another Assessor
III the State with so long record Of
faithful service.

How $500 of TAXES HAS BEEN
LosT.-It is unfortunate, to say the
least, that some effort was not made by
citizens of Monroe county to prevent
the loss which the tax payers haye sus-
tanned in the sale of the $4,000 acres of
land in Sweet Springs district returned
delinquent in the name of the Mt. Lake
Land Co. for the non-payment of the
taxes due thereon for the years 1898,
1894, 1895. 1896. This sale, after due
advertisement, was made at auction
during the late term of Monroe Circuit
Court and the land bid in by the Potts
Valley Furnace & Mining Co. for
81 800, from which proceeds the State,
county and district will realize barely
one-forth of the whole amount of taxes
due each. 1t is we'll known that men,
bers Of the Potts Valley Furnace &
Mining Co. are, in effect, the real own
ers OF this property, and the land was
allowed to become delinquent for the
very purpose of escaping as much of
the taxes as possible, the whole amount
of which was $4,924.94 The citizens
of Sweet Springs were more interested
than others in preventing this loss,
which they could have done by making
the land bring what was due on it,
There was due that district in school
and road taxes on this tract the sum of
81, 239.2l, and by the sale which was
nn1a tha 1ictrint ,bn
which the taxpayers of course must
make good. The county loses about
81 ,O42 and the State about $1,000. 1t
is too late to save this money to the
people now, but we mention the matter
so that the next time these land-trading
corporations undertake to avade the
payment of taxes, our citizens may be
slim ulated to protect themselves
Waterman.
