DEATH OF PILOT GREEN
Was a Resident of Cairo Though
Native of Smithland.

Word reached Paducah this fore
noon announcing the death last night
at IL o'clock, in Cairo, of Capt Har-
ry Green, well known pilot whc,
made that place his home. The imme-
diate cause of the death of Captain
Green was the removal of a leg in
jured last Saturday night while he
was at work on the steamer John
A. Wood, on which he was engaged
as pilot. He had his leg crushed by
his wheel while at work in falling
with an attack of epilepsyfrom which
he was a sufferer. The leg was ampu-
tated just above the knee at the ma
rine hospital in Cairo and for time
it was thought the captain would re-
cover but ne was too frail in general
health and succumbed at the hour
named.
Capt. Green was 40 years old. He
was q son of the late Capt. Samuel
Green and brother of Mrs. Musa
Woodward, of Cairo. He was born in
Smithland but when about eight
years of age removed with his par
ents to Cairo and that place has since
been his home. He had been a pilot
nearly since manhood and was ac-
counted a good one. He was of a
most social nature and had a wide
acquaintance along the Ohio river,
which stream he piloted almost en-
tirely. Capt. Green left wife and
several Interesting children.
The remains of the deceased will
be inferred at New Madrid. Mo, which
is the old home of Mrs. Green.

II. r.. AshbroOk's Report.

Paducah, KY, February /, 1906.
Officers and Directors of the Paducah
Bull Frog Gold Mining Co.:
Gentlemen: In compliance with
your desire that should go to the
Bull Frog Mining district of Neva-
da and while there personally inspect
titles and claims now belonging to
this company, and to briefly give tn,
results of my examination of the sew
eral groups of mines, with my opin-
ion Of that property. l beg leave to
report as follows:
On my arrival in the Bull Frog dis
trict, l secured the services of one
of the best known mining men of
that camp, and together with Mr.. ".
II. Grossius and Mr.. p. w. Dargin we
inspected the company's properties in
as thorough manner as possible and
/ take great pleasure in substantial
ing in every particular the report
made by Mr.. p. w. Dargin, of the
several groups belonging to this COM
pany.
I also made a thorough investiga-
tion of the titles and secured signed
and sealed afiidavits from the RecoA>
der of the district as to the owner
ship of properties from the time of
their first location up to the date of
transfer to the Paducah Bull Frog
Gold Mining Co. The properties of
the company are we'll situated within
the mining area of the district, tbe
ores of the camp are sufficiently rich
to bear transportation by wagons 20
miles to Goldfelds and from there to
the Salt Lake Smelter by rail, leav-
ing a handsome profit to the miner.
visited and inspected nearly ev-
cry shipping mine in that district ano
made paintings from their ore bodies.
taking the samples myself from the
veins at various places. Some of the
results obtained were astonishing
and hardly believable, unless one sees
the district for ones self. i became
fully convinced as to the future of
the district and to the great value
of the properties owned by the Pa
ducah Bull Frog Gold Mining Co.
Very sincerely yours.

Public Ownership Would Be Fatal
to Welfare of Cities and the People

panyf would naturally prefer tn,
lpose- jointed competition of mu
nicipal plant to the keen fight which
they would probably have with a pri.
vately owned plant, backed by ample
capital and managed by the abls
men who would probably be chosen
by a lot of shrewd capitalists for
such important work
Whenever this city Is ready for
municipal ownership, is willing TO
raise the money, is willing to forego
the taxes which it now collects and
to add 200 per cent. to the political
power of the city administration, il
can have municipal ownership with
out any extensive planning. All that
is necessary is to convince the man
agement of the present plants that
they must either sell out, or in flu
ture compete with public plant
whose business losses Will be met by
taxation or (what is much more
common) can be made up by charg
ing nothing against the plant for in
terest, and making no provision for
renewing IT. when 1t is worn out. 1t
is not at all necessary that the city
should begin fourteen years ahead
to choke off all private enterprise,
because at the end of those fourteen
years it may be compelled to com
pete with the creature that it is now
called upon to create. Let the new
company build its plant, encourage
il to build 1t as well as possible. If
at any time in the future the city
wants it present the alternative OF
selling out at a fair price or of com
peting with the public.
"TYhe result would be municipal
plant in full working order, with its
mistakes already made, its business
already built up, and its cost much
less than would result IL the city
bought the present antiquated plant
or started with the bare ground and
built from the beginning.
among the members of the Ohio
association, the general opinion was
that the craze for municipal owner
ship had very little backing except
from persons seeking office, and that
in order TO get Offices under il they
made promises which were utterly
impossible of performance. For in
stance cart-tail orators in New York
City promised gas at 30 cents per
thousand cubic feet. 1t would be
much easier for the city to furnish
bacon at one cent per pound, and
there is no doubt that one-cent bacon
would benefit more people than fif-
teen-oent gas"
