DEFAULTED BOND SUIT
Wallace County to be sued in the
Federal Court.

Papers are now being prepared for a
suit In the federal court against Wallace
county, Kansas, upon q block of default
ed interest coupons which haze been issued
by that county. The suit win be brought
by Attorneys Bentley & Hatfield. Mr..
Bentley has just returned from the coun-
~ Of Wallace. where he closely examin-
ed the financial situation. Concerning the
matter. Mr. Bentley says:
wallace county belongs to thu western
border tier Of counties lying along the
line Of Colorado The city os Wallace
was once a igorous town, and the divis-
ION headquarters OF the Union Pacidc
railroad. The diision and terminals Of
wallace have been moved to Cheyenne
Wells in Colorado, because Of high taxes.
Wallace county at one time had quite
large population, from 5000 to 1000 people,
and it now has only about 1000 people.
Extensive ranchmen, with their herds OF
sheep and cattle now monopolze the
county. The county seat has been moved
from Wallace TO Sharon Springs which
now has a population Of about 200 people.
Some years ago the population Of the
county began to fall off. The people be-
came indebted to the merchants, and the
merchants OF ina county Win t+4CtA
friends, hit upon the happy. expedient Of
transferring and unloading the indebt-
edness which the people owed them, onto
the county Of wallace. They got an act
passed and an order made by the board
Of county commissioners to pay a bounty
on gopher scalps, coyote scalps, and rab-
bit scalps This order went into effect,
and the county clerk saw that he was up
against It. and he notified the board and
tn. people that he would receive sca1ps
only on Saturdays The first Saturday
SEQ worth OF scaIps came in, the follow
ing Saturday $500 worth. and for quite
a time the sum never ran below 500 on a
single Saturday. It was discovered after
a while. ny a close examination, that
some Of the scalps were manufactured,
even to the ears. Warrants were issued
refunded into bonds, bonds were issued
and the debt was transferred from the
merchants to the county. Then the Union
Pacific railway took a hand. The railway
company is a very large taxpayer In the
county. and for several years they quit
paying taxes entirely They finally got
out an injunction against the warrants
and bounty on these various scalps
which were being turned into the county.
This case Is now pending in the supreme
court Of Kansas"

After Mr. Godard's talk, Judge Jewett
in few brief words introduced Governor

appeared the audience gave forth its ap-

Governor Stanley said in part: you

spoke Of Wichita and her people and his
feeling for them. He said:
'In the campaign just past 7 nave been

then met the people who desired TO shake

the whole Auditorium Of people wanted

GRAVITY GREAT GOLD FIND.


OMAHA, Jan. A dispatch from Lead
City says that work on the Golden Fortune
This is the mine owned by Otto Grantz in
the North Lead mining district. Recently
he shipped two cars Of the ore to the smell
ter-flfty-five tons--which netted him $1,000
another carload which netted him $7S 900;
the largest sum Of money ever received
for like amount Of Black Hills ore. Re-
turning home. Mr.. Grantz presented his
mainder Of the money he invested in gov
eminent bonds. In the spring Mr.. Grantz
win erect stamp mill on his claim which
is one of the richest In the world.
A few days ago the miners on this claim
took out veritable sheets Of gold about an
eighth of an inch in thickness and the size
Of mans hand. which were practically
pounds. All around the place where these
slabs were found the rock was literally
filled with particles OF gold. some Of the
ore being worth. by assay, $50 a pound.
ing experts of the Hills. 1t contains so
many different kinds of ore that most
mining men believe that the shoot Is
exists higher up on the mountain side. Mr..
Grantz has found black sulphides, chlor-
ides, horn silver. native silver. bromide Of
silver. ruby silver. sylvanite. gold, wolfram
mates in the proportion OF about two and
one-half ounces to one of gold.
Mr.. Grantz confidently believes that his
ore shoot will lead into a vertical and a
like opinion is held by all Of the mining
men who have visited the opening. Mr..
Grantz estimates that he has million dol
lars worth of ore In sight and It would
take round million to buy the mine. He
has five fractional claims, through which
numerous ore shoots and veins run. Mr..
Grantz showed one vein of free milling ore
which will average "a a ton gold that is
about $50 feet in width.
At the time the first piece of rich rock
was taken out there was reason for doubt
as to the permanency of the ore body, for
II has been a frequent occurrence to find
rich pockets OF ore in this district. After
Mr.. Grantz had excavated hole seventy
f1ve feet long, twelve feet wide and about
six feet deep, II was possible for person
to get an excellent idea as to the size Of
the ore shoot There Is no doubt that ore
was left in the open cut at each end. Some
OF the richest ore that has been taken cut
OF the mine, came from the upper end Of
the shoot on the last day that the mine
was worked The formation has commence
