CHAIRMAN NOTES.

The report in our last issue OF the
signing OF the contract for the Chain
man machinery, may serve to dlspe
the doubt in the minds OF local 'sdoubt
ing Thomases' as to the purposes o.
the new company. Many of our curb
stone sages have been shaking theii
heads when talk of the new mill came
up. and even now some want to see the
new building going up skyward before
they will admit the possibility of an
other mill in our camp.
The return of Supt. Shepherd with
orders to prepare for the excavating,
brings more life to the Chairman hill
Surveys for the new mill and q new
road have been made, and estimates o.
excavation and grading prepared. The
new road will probably leave the can.
yon about opposite the Robust pump.
house, and passing just above the old
Joana workings, reach the mills below
the ore dumps OF the Aultman and
Revenue mines. The grade will be
constant throughout the whole length
of the road, per cent for a distance
of 1900 feet. Contractors are busy fig.
uring on the work of grading the road,
most OF which will be rock work.
At the mine, all things are shaping
for active work on the new mill. The
mill will be closed down as soon as the
ore bins are emptied, in order that
there may be no interference with the
grading 1t is probable that much oi
the old plant will be removed in order
to make place for the larger buildings.
The miners have turned their atten-
tion to the copper ore body on the W.
200 and will now completely exploit this
strike for the purpose of enabling the
owners to have a correct idea of its size
and value.
Additional pumps have been installed
during the past week so that now two
sinking and one station pumps are al
work on the water In the shaft.
Pumpman Weller prophesies that sink.
ing in the shaft can commence in ten
days more, and that the mine water
will flow through Ely's streets before
another week passes. Already the
water has reached the head of the big
wash in the road in the canyon.
ELECTRIC LIGHT STATION.
The arrival of three loads of iron pipe
presage hardships for Ely's house
wives. Supt. Shepherd gives notice
that on Monday next, the water will be
turned from the ditch in order that the
pipe may be put in place of the wooden
fiume, and also that the new Pelton
wheel may be installed. This work
will probably require from to 8 days,
and for as many night We will be re-
duced to the level OF our more back
ward sister camps. Candles will take a
skyrocket boom and the old lamps will
be brought out and trimmed as In the
days of our infancy. However, we will
appreciate the electric light the more,
and we shall suffer discomforts for a
few days that we may reap the greater
benefit in improved and increased
lighting and power capacity. There
will be no dearth of light after few
nights of darkness.

WILL mine ORES
And Build Furnaces in Ashe
County.
The N. & w. 10 Build From Gossan and the
New River Development Company 10
Develop the Ore Banks.

AT last it seems that the Northwestern
part of the State is to be developed. For
years it has been admitted on all sides
that the counties of Ashe, Allegheny and
Watauga are possibly the most favored
counties by nature of any in the State,
but the Blue Ridge presented barrier
that no railroad company cared TO tackle,
and hence for years these magnificent
counties have been left untouched by the
fingers of enterprise. They are rich in
soil, splendidly drained by a dozen beau
tiful streams; they Craze cattle on a
thousand hills, while beneath the earth
lies untold wealth in magnetic iron, cop
per- mica tale and other minerals of
value.
The Norfolk and Western Railway Com
pany have announced their intention of
extending their line from Gossan, in
Grayson county, into Allegheny and Ashe.
This, We are informed, is to be done at
once, work probably commencing early in
the spring. This road does not have TO
climb the Blue Ridge, but simply goes
up the beautiful New River, which flows
through the above mentioned counties.
Now comes another enterprise asking
for a charter to develop that section.
The New River Development Company OF
North Carolina asks the Legislature for
power to construct railroads. mine ores,
build furnaces, construct and operate
electric railways, telegraph and telephone
companies. etc. The incorporators are:
Richard Wood, George r. Wood, and G..
W. Blake, of Pennsylvania; r. G. Bourne,
R. b. Roane, J. ID. Patton and G. NJ. Hol
stein, of the State of Virginia; and John
Dent, George p. Pell and w. c. Fields.
of the State of North Carolina. The cap
ital stock is $4,000, with power to in
crease to $5,000,00 The power to build
railroads is confined TO the counties OF
Ashe, Allegheny, Watauga, Wilkes.
Mitchell, Yancey. Madison. Buncombe,
Mcdowell, Burke and Caldwell.
1t is understood that this company is
the outgrowth of the recent magnetic
iron excitement in Ashe county. The
breaking of the Ballou will, which held
the famous Ballou ore bank in suth hape
that it could not be mined, was the oc-
casion fer many iron men to visit that
section. The incorporators Of the New
River Development Company have been
able to get control Of fifteen square miles
OF the best of these magnetic ores and
we understand 1t is their intention to
build furnaces manufacture steel. etc.
We are informed that Ashe county alone
last year shipped 10000 cattle and 10000
sheep, and her merchants received in
freight some thirteen million pounds
over ESQ, 900 pounds of cabbage, chestnuts
and other truck were shipped by the
country merchants North, to say nothing
of the immense business in poultry and
apples. This county is. traversed by two
of the most picturesque streams. the
North and South Forks of New River
beside dozen of less Importance. Alle-
ghany and Watauga are similar to Ashc
in their topography and the fertility OF
their soils.

THE WEATHER LAST YEAR.
A Summary of the Weather in North Carolina
during 800.

The official weather report for last
year has been issued. 1t says:
1.-THE student of the climate history
of North Carolina cannot fail to have
observed the striking, fact that for
nearly twelve years an almost steady
deficiency IN the annual precipitation
has taken place and the conditions
which prevailed durlrg 190O especially
the intense kaat AID drought of the
summer, again attract attention to this
fact. The ulestion when a return to
normal conditions will occur is serious
one. The annual normal precipitation
for twenty eight years, from 1861 to 1S99
and this Including the entire period of
minimum rainfall, was 81 inches. Dur
ing that period from 1859 to 1900 inclus-
i've only the wear 1884, shows notable
excess in precipitation. The total de-
ficiency for the entire period is over 80
inches and tire departures for the years
1894 to 1898 are especially remarkable.
The distribution of rainfall shows
very clearly the predominatng intlu-
ence of the mountain ranges of west
ern North Carolina. The rainfall was
especially great upo1 the eastern slope
of the Blue Ridge; from Highlands
