Division Engineer j. @. O'Melveny,
when asked yesterday about tue
Checkmate mine, OF which he is one
of the owners, stated that the reported
closing down OF the mine was incor.
rect says the Boise Statesman. The
company contemplated suspension OF
operations for n short time because II
is necessary to take In machinery, and
to haul coal for steam purposes after
the machinery is set. The roads were
go bad thar the transportation seemed
impracticable, and orders were given
for temporary suspension. Since then,
however, the plant has been changed
and work is being continued. MIR.
O'Meiveny saysEthe mine is looking
better than ever before, but 1t Is neces.
eary to sink on the leuge, and for this
reason machinery is essential.

The dogs name was Vixen and he be-
longed to Hon. Frank Jones of Ports

Jones's family is passing the season.
Vixen was passenger on Conductor

was taken with ST. Vitus's dance few
days ago and his condition grew worse
so rapidly that it was deemed best to
send him to theihospital.
Tied to Vixen's collar was tag. On
one side was written, ''My name is

On the other side was the following
"Have teiegraphed for some one to meet

THE LOWELL WORKS.
Their Relations to the People of South
Observation-Disclosures Offered at
Other Places-Prospect of Enlarge
ment of the Works.

1t was stated few days ago in Port
land paper that petition was being
circulated in South Portland requesting
the assessors to tax the Lowell bicycle
factory and its property, the farming
community claiming that it was no ad-
vantage to them and that it should be
taxed.
Inquiries of the selectmen and many of
the leading business men of the town fail
to reveal any knowledge of such a petition
that such one in existence is very much
doubted by many. The merchants all say
that the bicycle works have been great
benefit to the town and has not only given
work to a large number of people who
would otherwise have gone elsewhere, but
also been the means of bringing people
into the place who have not only become
tax payers but have bought property with
the intention of erecting homes. This all
tends to increase the valuation OF the
place and should be encouraged to the
fulles extent.
Ad vances have already been made to
the Lovells, offering good inducements
for them to locate in other towns in
Maine and also from Massachusetts,, but
they are we'll satisfied with the way they
have been treated in South Portland so
far, and if they receive the right kind OF
treatment and encouragement from the
town authorities in the future as they
have in the past there will be no change
in the location Of the plant. They only
ask for fair treatment, such as is shown
to other manufacturers, and if that is not
accorded them, then it will be time to
look for another location. 1t is said that
strong inducement have already been
made by the city of Westbrook to have
them locate there, offering the free use OF
large mill with water power and abate-
ment of taxes for IL years.
The Lowell bicycle factory has paid out
over 1000 in wages within the past
year in South Portland alone, and surely
the town is benefited to considerable
extent as most of the men live in the
town. Discrimination is made in the
employees, the preference of work being
given to men who reside in the place. The
works are under heavy expense making
Improvements and extending the plant tC
about double its present capacity, and are
now employing about $50 men most Of
whom are taxpayers.
They are now erecting a building 15C
| feet long, AZ feet wide and two stories
high, which will employ about so extrf
men. Plans have already been laid Out
for another brick building to be erected
in the spring if everything is favorable
feet wide and 2 stories high. This will
also give employment to large crew.
