Fast Forging TO the Front.
A mining man who keeps pretty
well posted on the mineral output of
the different sections O. Montana re-
marked the other day that an accu-
rate report of the output of gold in
the different counties of the the state
would show that at the present time,
Fergus county is very little behind
Lewis and Clarke and tina, within an
other year, will pass that county in
the production of the yellow metal.
In Lewis and Clarke they are now
working the taliings in many places
and their big output is largely from
this source and will be cut off in a
short time. On the other hand, in
Fergus county the main ore bodies
are just being reached and another
year or two will see a tremendous in
crease. Already the three principal
properties, the Kendall, Barnes-King
and Gold Reef, r grinding out, APP
proximately, at the rate of 81, 500, 900
a year. The nendall and Barnes.King
mills are to double their capacity
within the next year or so. 1t is only
a matter of a short time until Fergus
county will take her natural place at
the head of gold producing counties.

against Senator Bate or not. Gov.
Taylor shows his regard for the senti-

The Johnson City Foundry and Ma

the high standard of excellence which

an area of 50x15O feet, and is most ad-

London, July 10.-The Russian Am

Catholic Herald, has refused to receive
petition relative to the treatment of
negroes in the United States and for
ward it to the Gear, as requested by the
Catholic Herald. The petition draws
attention to the increasing outrages
on negroes, accompanied by appalling
brutality, and urges the Russian Gov
ernment to make representations to
Washington asking the authorities
to "take steps in the interests of civil
ization and humanity to suppress the
growing evil.
The Ambassador says the matter is
outside his purview and that he cannot,
therefore, move therein. The Catholic
Herald says the petition will be sent
direct to st. Petersburg.

CONGRESSIONAL "RAKE OFF"
Loose Methods Being Corrected by the

The special correspondent to last

The investigation of the scandals in

in other branches. The loopholes, by
which illegal gains may be had, are be-
ing carefully watched by officials and
there is a general Tightening up in

The post office investigation has been
instrumental in calling the attention of
the public to practice that is preva-

case that q member of Congress will
act as agent for some concern that de-

Unaka National Bank.

The Unaka National Bank is one Of
the strongest financial institutions in
Upper East Tennessee, and is growing
with every passing year stronger and
stronger both in fact and in public es-
TEEN. 1t is the outgrowth of a state
bank organized in Johnson City in
1896 by the late John d. Cox, of Jones
boro, and his associates. The begin
ming was a modest one, but the bank s
success was assured from the outset,
as a result of the charact err and tinan-
cial standing of its promoters. The
capital, while yet State bank, was in
creased to $37, 10000 to meet the de-
mands of the business.
In 1901 a national banking charter
was taken out and the name of Unaka
National Bank adopted, the capital be-
ing increased to $50, 10000. The in
tent of the management was evident by
the building up of surplus, as within
the two years there has been q surplus
fund of $l0,OO0.OO created; and the
same policy will be steadily maintained.
These methods can only result in one
thing, the abiding confidence of the
public and bank patrons.
The bank has a corps of officials that
give it their best efforts; the active
management may be said 70 have never
changed since the bank was launched
in 1896. One of the most popular and
efficient bankers in this entire section,
Tate L. Earnest, is cashier, Adam
Crouch is the capable assistant cashier.
The list of stockholders embraces some
of the wealthiest men of Washington
county, who are of themselves q source
of strength to the institution.
The following figures which are TAX
en- from the official public reports oi

velopment along substantial lines.
