PROMPT TRIAL AND PUNISH
MENT.

The conclusion of Judge Haselton
to summon the grand jury to investi-
gate the matter of the murder of
Corti will have general approval. The
prompt legal examination of crime or
disorderly conduct, the quick indict-
ment of offenders, their speedy trial
and punishment, are among the
strongest safeguards of society-which
appear to be in need of strengthening
here in Washington county.
The criminal docket of the court
presents startling array of cases,
including offenses all the way from
murder downward through the scale
of crimes. 1t is said that a continu-
GUS session of court for several weeks
would be required to try the cases al
ready on the docket. To these will be
added the results of the findings of
the grand jury at the called session.
No matter what the length of time
required, existing or any new cases
presented should be tried and judg-
ment rendered. Temporizing expedi-
ents should not be allowed to inter-
vene to stave off trial. The claws
delays" proverbial in their denial or
defeat of convection and punishment,
ought not to be suffered to perm it
people charged with offenses-whose
guilt often is merely matter of

Alick was carrying grain to the mill,
Riding old Dobbin Gray,
Grain-bags so full you'd think they
would spill
Jogging along went they.
Alick met John ON the way to the Fair,
Driving his gig so neat,
But the road took turn that was sud-
den and steep
Where the brook follows on by the
lane
Alick was thrown where the water
was deep,
And lost both the race and the grain.

Prosperity is in the air in Canada
as we'll as on this side of the border,
if the amount of shipping business
transacted at the port of Montreal is
sure guide. Despite the delays
caused by the great strike the port has
this year surpassed all records up to
this date and bids far to do better un-
til the end of the season. Six hun
bred and forty-nine vessels have been
cleared, gain of forty. three on last
year, while the tonnage is much in
creased. Not only have the exports
grown to an enormous extent, but the
imports show great increase, the

PATIENCE.

A little mouse lived in the wall;
A little cat sat in the hall
An owl perched on, the rafters tall.
The little cat the mouse would eat,
And tiptoed round on padded feet:-
The owl blinked shyly from his seat
That night the cat dozed in the chair
The little mouse orept out with care
The owl swooped down and ate him
there.

Ore That Will Stand Smelling

Superintendent Margueritch of
of the Electra mine has decided to
put a good force Of men to bring
ing in ore. He took Mr.. Roberts Of
the smelter out to his company's
property to sample the same. Mr..
Roberts took samples from the four
faces on the drifts at the 90 and
125-foot levels and sent them to
reliable assayer, who gave the fol-
lowing values as the result of his
test: Gold, $2520; silver, 63c, and
copper 7 per cent.
This proves that Electra ores
will bear smelling. Are there any
other mining men who have ores
that they are not afraid to have
smelted? Don't try to sell your
mining properties by showing peo
pie little ore on the dump. If you
have pay ore, the smelter will fix
you till you do not have to sell
your mines. They will pay for
their own operation and we can
soon have a community of produc
ing mines, instead of community
of non-producing prospects.
Nickerson & Wilson are showing
their confidence in the smelter by
placing their4 ores on its dump.
They are doing their share to keep
the camp moving. They are not
going to allow the mines around
Wickenburg to get a black eye by
allowing the smelter to go on the
bum for want of ore. If our camp
is to 60 ahead we must all pull to-
gether and at once. Other mining
men should not let few do all the
work or try to do it all, A few can
keep the smelter temporarily sup
piled, but in order to make it
lasting success, every one must do
his best. Haul in the ore, boys;
do not let the smelter die out for
want Of ore.

Hammered Gold
News comes from San Bernadinc

News comes from San Bernadino
this week that Joseph Lavore, an
aged miner, had succeeded in
pounding out nearly $500 worth
of gold from his mine with ham
mer in less than six weeks. The
old man has for years been work
ing the property, which is situated
in Holcomb valley, and six weeks
ago he decided to use hammer to
pound out the gold. The other day
he set out on foot for that place, go
miles away, carrying the lump OF
gold. When he arrived the sight
of his treasure created some excite
ment. He offered it for sale with
out weighing for 5000, and failed
to find a purchaser. Then he took
it to the bank; had it weighed, and
sold it for $49S.50. He has rich
ledge of the ore and, after deposit
ing his money in the bank, and
purchasing a few mining tools, he
started back to the mountains, in
tending to pound out more gold.

that miners have come in with

oil on the sonthern Pacific.

''There is no truth in the statement
that the Southern Pacific will soon
equip it's entire system with oil-burn-
ing locomotives, said General SUI
perintendent Thornwell Fay Friday to
the New Orleans Picayune. sit is
true that about half of the locomo-
tives between here and Houston are
equipped with oil burners, but until
there is assurance that the price of oil
will be sufficiently low to warrant the
change, this number will not be ma
terially increased.
1.-THE entire Beaumont field is now
producing about as much as was once
produced by single well, and at this
rate, the price, depending as it does
on the supply, will not be lower. The
oil which has been used by the South
ern Pacifc's engines was secured by o.
| special arrangement which was made
when oil was plentiful.
| ''You can depend on it that until the
price of oil is lower than the price of
coal, coal will be used on the South
ern Pacific system
