To Cover Technicaiity.

The chairman and secretary of the
Democratic County Central Commit
tee have called a convention of the
Democrats of Chaves County to be
held tonight in the court house, at
which a county ticket is to be named
for the coming election. This meeting
is being called merely to cover teen
nicality in the law. The law requires
that the ticket must be certified to
by the chairman and secretary of
the convention at which it is nomina-
ted. The Democratic ticket was nomi
mated by primaries. The chairman and
secretary of the Democratic County
Central Committee certified to the
nominations, but to avoid any possi-
BILE trouble that might be brought
up because the ticket was not certi-
fed to by the chairman and secre-
tary of the convention at which it
was nominated, the Democratic organ
izatiOn has decided to hold this meet
ing tonight and endorse the ticket
that was elected at the primary and
let the chairman and secretary of to-
nights meeting certify to it So the
meeting tonight is merely to avoid
any possible trouble and is of no 9th
er consequence.

Three Thousand Voters Register

Returns from all the precincts in
the county except No. s, The Plains,
have been received at the Office of Re
corder F. P. Gayle and the total to
date is 1857. 1t is confidently ex-
cepted that the Plains registration
will bring the grand total to 5000.
OF course there will be many votes
cast in the election that are not
represented by the registration books
In the election two years ago there
were but 1,5O0 votes cast after 1926
voters had been registered The reg
istration figures show a gain of about
thousand votes in two years, which
is fifty per cent, of the old vote.

The injured boy was conveyed as

everything done to relieve his SUI

The renewed activities in the min
ing district of Southwestern Wiscon-
sin during the last two years can
be accorded to the recent discover
les of large quantities of ore in that
section. Mining has been carried
on in this district for upwards of
seventy years in the same primitive
manner, nevertheless large quantities
of lead and dry bone have been taken
out. In view of these facts hun
dreds of companies have formed,
and many hundreds will yet or
ganize to carry on the work of
mining and prospecting by the now
more modern methods in vogue.
Among the companies to organize
recently were the shareholders in
the Winkler prospect located about
4 miles east of the village of Potnsi,
who met at the Potosi state bank
on Friday, April 18th. For centur-
les past to the best of our recollec-
tons it has been said and not with
out much truth, and truth is good
currency everywhere, that a good
name was rather to be chosen than
great riches and in view of the fact
that the promoters Of the new com
pany have used due care in ac-
cepting only Good Names viz. the
names OF good men to whom were
disposed Of the 80 shares which were
offered for sale, accordingly when
the question was raised to decide
on naming the new company it was
quite as apparent as before, that it
must be Good Nance. The King
Solomon Mining company was
agreeable to all present and It was
unanimously adopted. And in con-
clusion in the matter of Good
Names among the last on the stock
subscription list, but by no means
the least we find the names of J. O.
Davidson, governor OF Wisconsin
and III. G. Bergh, state bank exam
iner. The officers of the King
Solomon Mining company are: d.
Il. Myers, pres, Potosi, wis; Geo.
Ragatz, Jr., vice-pr3e., Dubuque, Ia. !;
II. III. Runkel, sec. and treas. Potosi
r. A. Bieler, director, Dubuque, la !;
Andrew Winkler, director, Potosi.
The shareholders reside lin four
states, namely Wisconsin, Iowa, Hi
nois and Minnesota. The Potosi
district as has been stated by the
last geological report completed less
than q year ago is one Of the most
concentrated of the whole region
and has been the most productive
IN the out put OF lead, Furthermore
this report states that wherever
quantities Of ore has been taken
out near the surface there is every
indication TO believe that there are
still larger quantities Of lead and
zinc at q lower range. Such are
the conditions Of the King Solomon
mine, and therefore drilling opera
tious which have commenced are not
a happy guess as in some parts OF
the district. There is also an old
shaft on the property worked some
thirty years ago, which contains a
good showing Of jack. This shaft
will be enlarged and sunk to a great
er depth by the company. In con-
cluslon it is safe to say that in a
short time as the company intends
to push the work forward at once,
the King Solomon will be up and
coming; look well to the west and
