IMPROVEMENTS AT CALDWELL.
Rock Island Plans to Secure Forty
Acres of Additional Land.


Caldwell, Kan. March 13.-Cald-
well is intensely interested in a propo-
sition submitted to them by the Rock
Island officials. They are given the
alternative of losing the Rock Island
division or of furnishing, at a reason
able price, some forty acres for addi-
tional trackage and yard purposes
A few days ago the head officials of
the Rock Island visited Caldwell and
asked to meet the Commercial club of
the city. A meeting was called. To
this meeting the Rock Island officials
stated what everyone knows-that
their present yards at Caldwell are
entirely too small to accommodate the
business that must be transacted there
as a division point. 1t was positively
announced that the division would be
moved from Caldwell unless addition
al grounds could be obtained at a rea-
sonable price.
The proposition was then submitted
to the Caldwell people that If they
would secure 300 feet additional right
of way on the east side of the tracks
from the Kansas Southwestern tracks
to Fall creek at a total cost of not
more than $4,000 to the Rock Island
company, the railroad would pay for
the land, would leave the division in
Caldwell and would exDend $25O,00O
this year in making improvements
there.
This proposition was regarded as a
fair and reasonable one. The Com
mercial club and the people OF ne
city generally went to work with vim
and energy that have always charac-
terized the Border Queen. They did
business. The committee having the
matter in hand report that the re-
quired right of way may be secured
at a cost considerable less than the
$4,000 limit. OF course some OF
those whose property must be ac-
quired are demanding extortionate
prices for their properties; but these
cases will be properly handled.
An extension of the Rock Island
yards 500 feet eastward will make
quite a change in the geography of
Caldwell. 1t will obIiterate several
residences. 1t takes in the Rock ISL
and lumber yards; also the sight for
the new Chaffin & Ames flour mill
Their elevator and storage tanks will
have to be moved to some new loca-
ton to be selected. But the trouble
is not with these big concerns, it is
the smaller fellows who are attempt
ing to play the holdup game.
Caldwell has only ten days in which
to secure the options in this addi-
tional right of way which takes in
about forty acres all told. So the city
is hustling in good old fashioned style
with practically everybody working in
harmony.

Kills Inside Germs.

The greatest value of Liquozone lies
in the fact that it kills germs in the
body without killing the tissues. too
And no man knows another way to do
it. Any drug that kills germs is a
poison, and it cannot be taken inter
nally- For that reason, medicine is
almost helpless in any germ disease.
Liquozonc is a germicide so certain
that we publish on every bottle an Of

THE POLARlS COMPANY
FINDS STRONG HACKERS
Funds Guaranteed to Fully Develop the
Property and Erect Reduo-
ton Plant at Proper Time "

ton Plant al PROPER Tine ~ .
A deal was consummated in Clifton
last week, whereby the International
Mining company, of Leadville, Colora-
do, is to finance bond sale for the
Polaris Mining company of this dis
trict for $1,OOO,0OO. A considerable
amount of money has already been put
up and more will follow faster than it
can be used. While the control of the
property passes to the Colorado peo-
pie. there will be no change in the To-
cal management, which is well, because
the development work is now in the
hands of competent man, L.F.Sweet-
ing, who is familiar with the property.
Mr.. Sweeting will at once proceed to
reconstruct the wagon road up the can
yon which was damaged by the heavy
rains of last winter, after which he will
have the old workings of the mine
cleaned out, and the property put in
condition for active operation, which
will commence about October LIST. 1t
is Mr.. Sweeting's intention to COM
mence with twenty-five or thirty men
and the work will be continued at three
different points. The Polaris company
has done considerable amount of work
during the past two or three years, but
the company's property is one of mag
nitude and will require the expenditure
of large sum of money in order to
put it in shape as a permanent produc-
err. The contract with the Interna-
tional Mining company calls for $75, 600
within three years, which is ample for
both development purposes and for the
erection of suitable plant for the re-
duction of the ores. Development work
will be pushed as rapidly as possible,
and when it is finally determined that
there is sufficient ore in sight to justify
it a plant will be ordered and erected.
This placing of the Polaris company on
a solid footing, and the resumption of
work at the mines, means much for
that section of the district and doubt
less will encourage other companies to
proceed with development work. The
Polaris company owns about sixty
claims, nearly all of which show strong
and well mineralized veins. Copper

Mohave's Tax Rate Hiqh

The county board of equalization, at
its meeting Monday, August 20, made
the tax levy for the year at $4 on the
500 of valuation. This levy includes
the territorial levy of 95 cents on the
500 dollars of valuation. In Kingman
precinct SO cents on the 500 in addi-
tion to the above levy was made for re-
demption and interest on school bonds.
Arizona silver belt., 1905-09-07

1t does not seem right that the terri
tory should make the levy the same as
that of last year because of the in
crease of taxable property to the
amount of nearly SIS, 900. This
great increase in taxable property
ought to have resulted in cutting down
the levy to at least 70 cents on the 500
of taxable property. -Mohave Miner.
