Blackboard Not To Blame.

Replying to an item IN our last issue,
the Sentinel says: "The buck board ssr-
vice between Palisade and Eureka has
been excellent for many months. It
leaves Palisade now on time and arrives
At Eureka always as per schedule. The
reason for its failure to bring tho west
ern mail frequently is due to the Cen
tral Pacific, which is late at Pslisade,
and the blackboard win not wait for It
now No blame can be attached to
this end Of the line; it Is the Central
Pacific"
The blackboard does just right not to
wait for the western train, when late,
as the eastern mail IS better than none.
It remains TO be seen If the Postoffice
Department will make the railroad car
ry the mail on time

According to the report OF the treas
urvr OF the Dexter Mining Co. Its mines
at Tuscarora have produced in the past
year 10, 994 tons of ore from which was
derived sl55, 34Z3l, or $7.77 a ton.
This result was accomplished with but

operation, while equipments entailing
an expenditure of s64, 900. 04 were being
made, including new air compressor,
the enlargement of the cyanide plant,
the installation OF new power plant.
and the sinking OF q new triple com
partment shaft to depth of $50 feet,
yet the company closed the period In
question with net profit OF ISL, 900.
In its report, the management calls
attention TO the new ground that has
been explored, and to no less than 2s
feet OF ore recently uncovered In drift
OF the 250-ft. level that averages s53
ton. It Is estimated that the body Of
ore in sight is double that which has
ever appeared, with enough above the
/ l5o-ft. level to supply the mills with 100
tons daily for two years, The cleanup
for June amounted to Sl4, l40.Sl, the
largest In the history OF the mine, and
dividends are promised before the end

The GubernatoriaI Contest Case.

The testimony In the governorship
contest case was closed last Tuesday
and the case Is now in the hands Of the
lawyers and the Court. Nothing OF
startling nature has been disclosed, nor
any evidence of manifest fraud. 1t has
been shown, however, that over one
tenth of the voters In the State at the
last election did not comply with the
strict letter Of the Australian ballot law
as a total OF l, 100 ballots have been OBJ
jected to, about evenly divided between
Sadler and Mcmillan. Under former
rulings Of the Supreme Court, most OF
these ballots would be thrown out, but
as the Court has already twice reversed
.tself in this case, under it's present rul-
ings most OF them will probably be ad-
mitted as good ballots Which side Is
most benefited by the new rulings, it is
not yet possible to state. The lawyers
are now engaged in examining more
carefully the ballots to which obiec-
tions have been taken. The fnal argu-
ments will begin next Monday
