Mill for the What Cheer.

The What Cheer Co. has decided to
place 5-foot Huntington mill on its
property, and an order for the same has
no doubt already been placed with the
manufacturers. This mill is of about 90
tons capacity and with the rich ore of
the What Cheer vein, the daily output
of gold will place the property on a pay
ing basis at once. The mill building
will be constructed of sufficient size to
admit OF adding another mill when the
output of the mine will require it. 1t is
expected that the mill will be in oper-
alton by Oct. 15.-Florence Miner.

The New Bankruptcy Law.

On Monday, August LIST, the new
national bankruptcy law went into effect,
and that the provisions of the law may
be understood we publish the following
concise statement, written for the Spo-
kane Chronicle, by Attorney c. w. Hoyt,
OF Spokane;
1.-The constitution OF the United States
gives to congress the right to legislate
upon and control proceedings in bank
ruptcy. This power has been exercised
by the national legislature four times,
viz, in the enactment of the laws of 1902,
1910, 1857 and the law now in effect.
This law supersedes all the laws on this
subject which were operative in the sew
eral states prior to it's enactment.
Among it's advantages is uniform pro-
cedure and a fair treatment of all cred
itors, whether they reside in the same
state with the bankrupt or in some other
state.
The two principal objects of the law
are to secure prompt and fair distribu-
Wv" Va VIC oCOtpl llOll luItilcI lIdUllllN
to them. 1t is said that little objection
is made to the first object, but that re-
leasing debtor without requiring him
to make full payment of his debts is not
50 much in harmony with our ideas OF
justice.
The law, however, is founded on the
theory of "the greatest good to the great
est number" 1t is believed that cred
itors will receive little or nothing from
d man ovsrburdened with debt and that
ii whatever property he may have above
that exempt by the laws OF his state be
distributed at once among his creditors
and the debtor released, he will become
more useful member Of society.
Under the new law. the machinery OF
the bankrudtcy courts can be set in mo-
tion either by the debtor himself or by
any one Of his creditors, it being pre-
sumed that the law is equally in the best
interests OF both parties.
"rhe treatment Il insolvent debtors
has long been the subject of legslat on
and it las not been easy 20 formulate q

Senator Halls Position.

Considerable criticism was raised in
various parts of the county because Of
Senator Hall voting for Wilson while in
the Legislature. Mr.. Hall, however, has
stated his position most satisfactorily,
and has clearly shown that he is tied to
no one, and his vote for senator in the
next legislature would be controlled en-
tirely by the dictates OF his own con-
science, and would go to the best man.
Senator Hall has made the following
statement OF his position:
mo one has right to call me Will
son man, and | do not propose to be
placed where do not belong. When
went to the legislature before | was fav-
orable to John B. Allen and intended
voting for him. was opposed to Mr.
Ankeny. Being unable to learn from
Mr.. Allen that he was candidate,
voted for Mr.. Wilson as a necessity
Having started with him l felt it my
duty TO remain with him, and when his
vote dropped left him and voted for
Allen. When saw that Mr.. Allen could
not win and that Mr.. Wilson was gain
ing in strength and stood show OF
election, voted for him again. Wheth-
or ] should vote for Mr.. Wilson next
winter if am elected is problematical.
| am just as likely not to as am to do
so. 1t depends entirely upon circum-
stances. am unpledged and shall not
allow myself to be pledged. desire to
stand in position to support the best
man for the whole state"
