ATWOOD DISTRICT
SHOWING UP FINE
Big Lodges Carrying Sub
Stantial Values in Gold
Probability That a Stamp Mill Will
Be Erected in the Camp Within
the Next Few Weeks.

Frank Stewart is in from Atwood
and he speaks encouragingly of the
mining conditions in that promising
district. On the Sierra Vista group
of claims, which is owned by MIN, w.
j. Sinclair and T. L. Oddie, develop
ment is progressing favorably and
vigorously. The main work on the
group has been confined to the Gold
Crown claim, aud in the shaft and
drifts fine bodies of ore have been
opened up. The shaft is now down
seventy FIVE feet in ore carrying SUBJ
stantial values At forty five feet
in the shaft drifts we're started east
and west and the latter is now in ITO
feet. A six foot ledge was followed
all the way, and sixty feet in cross
cuts were run in the hanging wall,
opening up new ledge six feet thick.
In the drift four feet of the ore
samples $3.50, and two feet on the
hanging wall runs $50 to the ton. A
winze now being sunk in the drift
sixty feet from the shaft shows five
I feet of ore at the bottom, and two
feet of it samples 500 in gold, the
balance being of a good milling quail
ity. To the end of the drift, fifty
fet t farther on, ore was followed, all
of which carried good values, though
through it pay streak ran from
which thirty tons Of ore was secured
that sampled 500 20 to the ton. AT
the end of the drift fault was en-
countered, and in prospecting for
the plane crosscut was run 100 feet
to the south, and ID its progress two
more lodges, one of five and the
other of four feet in thickness, were
crossed. Both of these give average
returns of from 50 to $40 in gold.
In running the east drift from the
shaft another fault was met with,
but in following up the broken ledge
matter for a distance of fifty feet the
walls were finally found intact and
revealed three foot vein of ore that
runs better than so to the ton.
On the Red Chief, another claim
belonging to the group, tunnel is
being run to tap ledge which on the
surface, and which was sunk few
feet, showed ore that assayed $175
to the ton. The tunnel is now in
ferty-tive feet and about half com
: plete, but in its course number of
stringers, four to six inches wide
have been cut, and these all carry
high values.
Through the claims a strong water
channel makes its way, and wherever
: sunk on an abundance of water has
been found, sufficient for all purposes.
Wood is also plentiful and this take
= with the free milling character of the
ore and the never failing supply oi
water which the country supports,
| makes reduction practicable and
economical, and it is the intention Of
Messrs. Stewart, Sinclair and Oddie
to erect stamp mill on the prop
erty within the next few weeks.
On the Hubner, Bunker & Pipes
property, six miles from the Sierra
| Vista, some good ore is being ex
tracted, and indications favor the
opening up of big mine.

THE POWER OF A GOVERNOR.
PRIMARY ELECTION is NOT THE
ONLY ISSUE IN THIS CAM
PAlGN.
Should Well Consider Cover
nor Cannot Enact Laws.

The Grand Rapids Herald, in its is
cue of October IA, makes the following
very pertinent suggestions:
Though talking primary election law
continually the Democrat candidate for
governor has to admit that he could
not as governor enact one. Why does
not he discuss the things a governor
can do, instead of floating on abstract
theories?
Mr.. Ferris as governor could, If a
senatorial vacancy occurred, appoint a
Democrat to the seat to serve until the
meeting Of another legislature. In
this way his appointees could hamper
national policies and become formid-
able obstructionists. How would you
like Dan j. Campau instead of Burrows
or Alger handling national legislation?
A Democrat governor could also nil
many state Offices, in no way connect
ed with primary reform, with his APP
pointees. The appointment of railroad
commissioner, insurance commission
er, labor, banking and pure food COM
missioners, oil inspector and members
OF many boards would fall TO him, and
instead of getting Republican efficien-
cy the state would have its affairs in
the hands of men inexperienced and
incompetent. Long established poll
cies would be overturned and the in
terests Of the people would suffer.
II is the legislature not the governor
that enacts laws. The state is as sure
of primary election legislation under
Warner as under Ferris. and Il Is very
likely the legislation would be just as
comprehensive. Mr.. Warner would
sign any bill that comes to him from
the legislature.
But is primary election the only is.
sue in Michigan? Are not efficiency
in the administration of state affairs
in all departments. economy in the ex-
penditure Of public funds. good sense
and soundness in shaping public poll
cies. wisdom in the management of the
public institutions-are not these also
issues in this campaign?
The election of Fred NJ Warner for
governor will insure a continuation Of
the safe and sane policies that have
made Michigan what IL is today, one OF
the greatest states in the union. A
Democrat In the executive Office Will
mean discord and confusion In all
branches Of the state government. in.
efficiency and wastcfulness. II would
be backward step and experience in
the past should warn Michigan against
steps of that kind

THE STATE TICKET.
REPUBLICANS OF MICHIGAN HAVE
EVERY REASON TO FEEL
PROUD.
From Governor Down the Ticket Is
Composed of Honest, Sturdy CitI-
zens Of the State.

The Republican state ticket, made
up Of splendid men, is headed by Fred
N. Warner, a man who has been in
public life for a number of years, and
whose record is unassailable. An at
tempt has been made to shrow that he
Is the creature of corporate interests,
and will be controlled in his actions as
governor by those interests; but this
has signally failed. His record has
been shown, and it proves that he
has the manhood and independence to
do what is right without regard to the
wishes of the railroads and other cor.
porate interests of the state.
The attempts made to smirch Mr..
Warner have SO completely failed that
some of the opposition papers have
lately been apologizing for the attacks
which they made upon him in the
early part of the campaign. They
now say that they did not Intend to
call in question his honor and integ-
rity, and are sorry if the language they
used could be so construed. Mr.. Fer
ris has been compelled by the public
opinion which these unjust attacks on
Mr.. Warner has produced by reaction,
10 tell the people from the platform
nat the Republican candidate for gov
ernor is an honest and a just man.
The people are fiocking TO the War
Her standard because they want an
honest and a practical business man
at the head of the affairs of the state
and they are learning, even from his
opponents, that he is that kind of a
man. Before his straightforward course
the bugaboo of primary reform" has
lost its terrors, and the people are will
ing to trust him to do what he says he
will do to protect the primaries and the
nominations for Offices.
Fred NJ. Warner and the splendid
state ticket of which he is the head
