GREAT Things In SIGHT
FOR THE RAY DISTRICT
Two Gasoline Hosting Plants Ordered and
Preparations Being Made for Extensive
Development Work.

Unless all signs fail the Ray district
will be a scene of great activity within
the next few months. Plans have
been formed and are now being shaped
that will do wonders for the principal
properties there, and if the latter
have the merit that has been attri-
buted to them by the many prominent
mining men that have examined them,
it will not be long before they are put
on the list of producers.
While Judge L. 0. Ray was in the
east this summer, be launched the
Ray Extension company, and induced
a number of Toledo, Ohio, men of
means to take large block of stock.
This they did after making thor
ough examination of the property,
and from the sale of stock sufficient
funds have been secured to equip the
property in firstclas shape. An
order for an up to- date gasoline hoist,
Of sufficient power to work the main
shaft to depth Of 600 feet has been
ordered. Necessary houses for the
accommodation of the men will also
be erected, and within short time
a considerable force of men will be
employed.
The group Of claims which the com
pany owns consists of the Lone Jack
Spion Kopje, Warpath and hex.
The two former are extensions of the
Ray & O'Brien claims, and through
them passes the ledge from which, in
the Ray & O'Brien, so much rich ore
has been extracted. The formation
is the same, the hanging wall being
lime and the foot quartzite, and par
alleling it is an immense iron dixie
The development work, other thar
prospecting work, has been confined
to the Lone Jack claim, on which two
shafts, respectively, forty and one
hundred feet, have been sunk, and ii
these, lodges are disclosed varying
from three to five feet in thickness.
and assaying from $40 to $577 in lead

The development work outlined fol
these claims means that they will be
sunk upon to a depth of 500 feet al
least and at intervals in the shaft
drifts will be run in on the ore Funds

The Dispatch feels that mob law In
this state is being discouraged by this
law. by the prompt action of sheriffs
aided by the use Of the military where
this cannot be avoided, and by the
melting out Of strict justice to Offend

true there has been no successful at
tempt at lynching for six years, only
time can tell whether the supremacy
of law over this class of offense Is per-
manent. Within a very short time
circumstances may occur that will
raise mob spirit, and the officials may
not be able to prevent the consumma-
tion OF mob vengeance.

a successful attempt at lynching since
that Of "Clock" Mitchell at Urbana
six years ago. There have been two
attempts of serious naCure-one in
Chillicothe and one In Akron-but
both were stopped. The Dispatch says:
No person has been lynched since

where lynching occurs liable to the
estate of the victim for damages was
placed on the statute books and made
valid by the decision of the Supreme
court.

work, said:
For my part ! do not see how a
life insurance man can help being en-

which at one time it was thought
would be secured for Canton, has been
forced into involuntary bankruptcy by
action of its creditors. Among the
creditors are assignees of the Canton
Savings 6 Trust company, who have
claim for $4,000.
When the loan as made by the trust
company responsible parties went on
the paper and when the concern be-
gan to get embarrassed these surities
came forward and took up the paper,
relieving the bank of all responsible
ties.
Some time ago the automobile COM

as the result of bad management. All
effort was being made to reorganiz,
and recapitalize the concern. 1t was
then that the board of trade of Canton
was in correspondence with the prin-
cipal stockholders ith view to secui'
ing the plant When the bankruptcy
proceedings were begun all negotia-
tions ceased.
The details of the failure is con-
tained in the following dispatch from
