STATUTE DEFECTIVE.
No Regular Election Of High School
Trustees Can be Held.

In accordance with the Intended
provisions of an amendment which
the last legislature made to the act
creating provisions for county free
high schools, three new high school
trustees should be elected at the COM
ing school election. The matter was
first taken up by the board OF trus.
tees, but the amendment Is so defec-
tive In three or four essentials that
they consulted the county attorney as
TO the mode of procedure. So far as
an election is concerned the amend.
ment provides that one shall be held
and anne the date for holding the
same and says that IL shall be held
in the same as provided by
law FOR the election OF trustees for
school districts in second and third.
class districts"
This. however. is very indefinite, as
it does not provide for any nomina.
tons. any method of calling the cleo
ton, for any method of counting or
returning the votes, for canvassing
the vote nor for issuing certificates of
election. The law does provide. how.
ever, that, in cas- no election is held.
1t is made the duty OF the secretary
of the county high school board of
trustees to certify to the county COM
missioners that such vacancies exist.
The board of county commissioners
shall then ill such vacancies by APP
pointment.
1t was the opinion Of the board of
trustees. the county superintendent
of schools and of the county attorney
that, owing to the unfortunate de-
fects in the statute, any election held
would be extremely irregular and
would most likely lead to legal com
plications to the detriment of the
school. For that reason 1t was decid.
ed that the safest course TO pursue is
to allow the election to go by de-
fault and have the vacancies filed by
the county commissioners. The next
legislature will certainly take up the
matter again and amend the amend
ment so that the intent OF the statute
can be carried out in a regular man
ner.

Or. Gums Blood and Nerve Tonic.

There is not q woman In this land
but at some time In ner life would
have been the better Tor the use Of
this Tonic. For diseases peculiar to
women a better medicine was never
made. 1t is composed of the ingred-
tents from which the system has been
deprived by disease, over work or dis
sipation. It enters at once into the
circulation, building UP the tissues
that have wasted, and making pure
rich blood in the most direct way. For
weak. nervous and unsteady people,
pimply, pale OF fleshless people, 1t will
make strong, steady nerves and give
the complexion that wholesome look
that indicates health. We have hun
dreds of letters that people have writ
ten us, saying they had gained in
good solid flesh at the rate of one
to three lbs. per week, while using

1t should be taken after. meals, one

sell 1t for 75c per box, or three boxes

OvapepaIa.

People that have dyspepsia have
weak stomachs. weak hearts, weak
eyes and are usually weakened.
They feel bilious, and the world In
general has a bilious look to them;
they have so many symptoms that II
is difficult to locate the place where
they feel the worst. The fact is, the
source from where they get their
strength has been cut OF. and they
are sick all over. The food taken in
to the stomach remains u~ndigested,
causing belching and bilious attacks,
followed by sick-headache. and gen.
eral weakness. The medicine that
puts the stomach In condition so that
the food can be readily ~digested, will
cur dyspepsia, and make strength
where there a weakness. We have
cured thousands of persons during
the past 20 years OF dyspepsia, with

claims, which the company has under
bond from Losinger & Morrison. Sew
en- men are working on this group
and during the winter $50 feet of de-
velopment has been done A large
amount of low grade cyanide ore is
shown in the various workings on
these properties, on the Myrtle and
Daisy lodes, where the larger part Of
the development has been done. A
mill is one of the quite probable i'm
provements that will be added to this
group during the summer. On the
Myrtle a cross-cut tunnel is being
driven for exploration purposes. This
tunnel has reached $50 feet. The ore
of the Tilden gulch group is a cyan.
ide ore on the surface, but in the
deeper workings much of the ore is
heavily impregnated with fiourine and
this might alter the character of the
ore, but no tests have as yet been
made to determine whether or not
a change has taken place as depth
has been reached. Losinger, Daugh.
erty & Fender have the Laura b., and
other claims adjoining the Tilden
biOup Oh tht NtcN. n lltHCH ~ Ittl
long on the Laura b. lode shows ore
its entire length that will assay IS
per ton. The other claims also look
well. In the same gulch Nc. White
and Charles Burroughs are doing
work on some copper claims they
have recently located.
John Lennon Is working on a cy-
anide claim on the extreme head OF
Box Elder creek. The claim is on
the divide between Box Elder and
Little Armells creeks. Mr.. Lennon
has driven a tunnel IS feet on his
claim and has a body of fairly good
cyanide ore, which is increasing in
value as depth is gained. One of the
best strikes of the past winter is that
made upon the Mcintyre claim on
the head of West Maginnis creek,
near the Chicago mine. On this claim
a body of ore 100 feet in width, that
will assay 81 per ton has been shown.
Mr.. Mcintyre is now engaged in driv-
ing a tunnel to expose this ore at a
greater depth. The tunnel will have
to be driven 100 feet and will have
a depth of 100 feet wnen the ore is
reached. The claim is under bond
to Card & Hawksworth, of Helena.
Already a large amount of ore has
been shown On the property and
when the ore body has been reached
by the tunnel, If it shows as well as
in the surface workings. a milling
plant will be built.
The Big Horn tunnel in Collar
gulch is now In 220 feet. Work has
been suspended temporarily until a
boarding house and bunk house can
be completed. A rich seam of silver
ore was cut in the tunnel recently,
but no prospecting was done on it.
Mr.. r. E. l.. Townsend, manager of
the company doing this work, feels
very confident that the tunnel will
prove a profitable venture, as Crys-
tai Peak. the mountain into which it
is being driven, is in the very heart
of the mineral zone of the Judith
range. Work will be resumed on the
tunnel as soo as the necessary
buildings for the accommodation of
the men are completed.
Much development work on the
prospects of Cone Butte is projected
for the approaching spring and sum-
mer and two companies that are not
operating now will begin work on
some properties there. The district
