THE DAYTON Leech says that

THE Dayton Leech says that it
is agreed by all interested that the
rock put ON the roads near Yer
ington is the proper stuff for a
road foundation, and that w. H.
Slingerland, who put it on, proba-
bly, knows as much about building
roads as any other man in the
State. We have always held that
the rock being used for road work
in this valley is the right kind of
material for good roads, but the
manner in which it has been APP
piled has made but little improve
ment to the roads, and in some
places has been a detriment. So
far as everybody being satisfied
is concerned, that is false-nobody
is satisfied, except, possibly, those
who were paid to haul on the
rock. 1t may be that Mr.. Singer
land is the best road builder in the
State, but he has got several more
efforts coming to convince nine
tenths of the people in this valley
that he knows the first. thing about
such work-judging from the road
he has already built.

A NUMBER of farmers below

A NUMBER of farmers below
Yerington are working for a new
wagon road, now known as the
Mcleod road, to connect with the
Yerington Wabuska road. The
plan calls for a new bridge over
the Walker River about two miles
below the present bridge.-Dayton
Leech.
This is the road the people pc
titioned for some two years ago,
and which the lying Commissioner
Gates agreed to stand in for If
elected, consequently the road has
not yet been opened. He also led
the people of the lower end of
the valley to believe that he would
favor a crossroad through the Mil
Ter & Lux ranch to connect with
the main Wabuska road. The
Times warned the citizens that
neither road would be built by the
present Board of Commissioners.
Neither road has been built, and
it now looks as though the game
of politics was to be renewed and
the road matter made contingent
proposition on the election of the
same Board again. The Times
sees no reason why the people
of this valley who want new
roads, good roads and the advance
ment of this section should believe
that Gates will assist them in get
ting them now any quicker than
he has heretofore done. The
writer of this knows him to be
silurian, non-producer and det-
riment generally to any cause for
advancement and any community
in which he may reside.

IT was but a few years ago
when the Democrats were howl
ing that the Republican party
was ruled by a boss. In years
gone by A. c. Cleveland was
classed as a boss of the politics
of the State. Later on c. c.
Wallace gained that distinction,
but with all the manipulations of
these two men their acts were
white as snow compared to the
rank bossism of Senator F. G.
Newlands, He is a dictator of
the hardest character, and to dis
obey his commands is to gain his
ever lasting displeasure and
enmity. There is no branch of
the government into which he
will not reach to make all persons
his tools. His work is so raw
compared to the work of other
politicians that it would actually
give a wooden Indian the nose
bleed.

Common Sense Required.

One of the most serious mis-
takes made in mine operation is
the effort to make a large proper
ty out of small one. There are
often found veins of large size in
which occur narrow paystreak-
large enough, perhaps, to pay to
keep FIVE or ten stamps employed,
but which will not supply suffic-
lent ore for larger mill. This
fact is sometimes disregarded and
large mill is built on this really
small mine and a failure is the
usual result. In some instances
the fault lies in the demands of
the directors and stockholders,
and at other times it may be
charged to the management. A
large low-grade ore body with
rich streaks or spots in it is all
right if the low-grade ore contains
enough value to afford profit,
without the aid of the rich spots
and streaks, but when the rich
portions only pay it is bad bust
ness to mine the great mass of
ore and mill the entire vein to OBJ
tain the values from the spots, if
it can possibly be avoided. Oc-
casionally this cannot safely be
done, particularly where the rich
spots are concentrated in small
spaces, like gold pockets, which
occur in some mines. In such
cases it is found advisable at
times to mill all the vein material,
that none of the gold shall be in
advertently thrown into the fill
ing or over the dump. There are
instances, however, where the
values occur in certain strata or
in goodsized punches, and these
actually constitute all the pay
rock in the mine, but in the de-
sire to make large showing a
big mill is built, a great many
more men are employed than
necessary, and the property is
operated on an extensive and ex-
travagant scale. The result is
never satisfactory unless the good
ore is sufficiently rich to pay all
the expenses of extravagant man
agement. This condition is found
in copper, silver, lead and zinc
mines, as well as in those produc-
ing gold. A number of instances
can be mentioned where this
policy was pursued until the con-
Germs were wrecked financially,
to be subsequently reopened by
others, who successfully worked
the mines on a scale commensu-
rate with their magnitude, and in
practical, common sense man.

WEDGED BETWEEN TRAINS
Two Employees at Wisconsin Central
Yards Meet With Peculiar Accident

Two employees AT the Wisconsin
Central yards met with peculiar accl-
dent last week, and, rs a consequence,
one has two of his left ribs broken while
the other sustains II fracture of four
ribs and has hole in one lung. The
men are Mike Xarnik, of South Twen-
tieth Street, age about 40, unmarried,
and Anton Wergen of Columbus ST.
between Sixteenth and Seventeenth
Streets. married about : months.
They were going to work at the
wards and were walking between tracks.
As a rule there is space enongh Tor two
men to walk abreast between two trains
on adjoining tracks but some ears are
wider than others and it was between
two trains of these wide cars that the
two men were caught. They We're
literally wedged together and when
they were taken out Wergen, whose
lung WAS pierced was bleeding at the
mouth and nose. Both men were ut
tended by DR.. Luhman who says that
they will recover He does not think
that the Company can be held respon-
sible in any way for the accident.

UNIVERSITY WANTS MONEY
State Institution Asks A. II. Schmidt to
Form Club here To Raise $3.50 for
Jubilee fund To Be Held In
Madison Next June

Some time last week Albert H.
Schmidt of this city received a letter
from President Chas. Van Hise OF the
University of Wisconsin, requesting
that club of alumni of the University
be organized in this city and that the
sum of $3.50 be raised for the O,OOO
fund which is to be used for the jubilee
at Madison next June.
Mr.. Schmidt called meeting of for
mer students Monday evening, and
twelve responded. The purpose of the
meeting was stated and the matter was
discussed. Those present were heartily
in favor of establishing an alumni
club bnt as regards raising $3.50 there
was not much enthusiasm. The senti-
ment was. in fact, rather against the
idea of raising any money for jubilee
at Madison which would be no benefit to
the people of the state generally. As
Madison was to reap the entire benefit
it was thought only right that she
should bear the expense.
Mr.. chmidt however kept constantly
referring to that phase of the situation
and seemed tt. be rather insistant that
some effort should be made to raise the
money. Consequently committee,
composed of W. II. Luehr, John
Schmidtman and Ralph G. Plumb, was
appointed to look after the matter Of
organizing the club and of raising
some money. if not the full $3.50. The
committee is to report at another meet
ing to be held Feb. 22nd
Among those present ut the meeting
were f. H. Peck a graduate of the Uni
versity of the class 1866 and DR.. Luh-
man of the class 1875.

THE ELKS' BALL

The grand ball given by the Manito-
voc Lodge, No 2S7, b. =. O. Elks last
Thursday was not only, as usual, the
social event of the season but was the
most successful affair of the kind yet
given by the Elks The decorations
were superb and reflect immense credit
on Bruno Dalwig under whose direction
they were put up. The supper fur
nished by Caterer Akin was delicious
The attendance was large and the
music, by Urban's Orchestra, WAS the
best of its kind the town affords.
Immediately under the chandelier was
placed great ball of white paper illu
minated from the center by electric
| lights. From this streamers of flowers
and greens, each decorated with u
dozen or SO lights, ran down to various
parts of the hall. The railing of the
gallery was garlanded with green and
in the center was II huge moose-head
| looking ont from n gigantic clock dial,
the hands of which pointed continuous
lyto the mystic hour of the Elks eleven.
The stage was decorated with rugs and
hangers and turned into louuging
room. A pretty railing, opening in the
center, ran along the footights and he
hind this, near the opening, Miss Carey
presided over punch bowl Steps led
up to the opening, over which was bnilt
an arch supporting the stuffed figure OF
deer. Couches and chairs encircled
the entire hall.
At eleven the dancing ceased while a
bell sounded the strokes and Max RAIN
called the hour.

PAY VISIT TO THE NEW
SCHOOL NEAR FRENCH CREEK
rlessrs Christensen, Hyer, Chloupek
And Easton Carry Off Eatables AND
A Pleasant Impression From
Genial Inhabitants

County Superintendent of Schools,
Fred Christensen, Prin. Hyer, of the
Training School, County Judge John
Chloupek and Laird Easton, Editor OF
the PILOT, swooped down on French
Greek last Friday evening, and after
despoiling that vicinity of all they could
carry away in the line Of eatables, went
over to the new school building which
the people of Kossuth and Gibson have
recently erected. There, despite the in
clement weather. large and represent
ative gathering greeted them and made
them feel delightfully."- lat home and
showed them all over the finest district
school building in the county.
Three of the members of the party
had the nerve to address the meeting.
They were: the superintendent, the prin-
cipal and the judge. The editor stood
it rs BEST he could while the hospita-
BILE audience seemed positively to enjoy
it. 1t vas evidently so long since it had
seen such rare specimens that 1t was
bound to make the most of them.
We must draw veil over those
Speeches We must positively refuse to
comment on them that is, excepting
the Judges. That was awful. There
wasn't word of truth in it. 1t was in
Bohemian and WAS malignant slander.
We are sure of this. There was some
thing positively diabolical in the very
manner of delivery.
After the meeting, the party OF four
proceeded to kindly home, where
three of the four ate again, unblushing-
ly and without shame.
The school house, by the way, Is one
of which not only the people OF the dis
trict but the whole county should be
proud 1t is a one-story and basement
brick structure, heated by furnace and
finished superbly. 1t will be tribute

teacher. Clerk Wit of the school board
was largely instrumental in getting the
school built.
