EXPRESSION FROM THE PEOPLE.
Large Majority Favor The Railroad and Want
10 See L Constructed.

In response to the Citizens Railway
Committees request for answers to
questions it had sent out, the following
results have thus far been attained, and
are expressed in percentages OF the total
number OF answers:
1st. Do you favor another railroad?
Yes, 30 per cent; No. 10 per cent.
2nd. Will the building of rail-
road be of direct or indirect benefit to
you? Yes, SO per cent; No, II per cent.
3rd. II the constitution of the state
allowed the county to give aid, would
you vote to do SO? Yes, 70 per cent; No,
25 per cent.
4th. Do you favor making an at
tempt to raise $4,000 by popular SUBJ
scription? Yes, 60 per cent; No, 81 per
cent.
5th. Will you aid the committee to
do 80 by offering your services il called
upon? Yes, Ga per cent; No, SO per
cent.
These figures show that the majority
have answered favorably to every ques.
tion. This is good evidence that the
community favors the project and is
willing to unite in pushing it through.
There are many who evidently do not
consider the Importance Of answering
the questions and mailing the card. To
those who have not answered, an urgent
appeal is made for them to do SO. 1t is
a small favor to ask, and there should be
enough public interest taken on the
part OF everyone to do SO. II you have
mislaid your card send for another, or
call at the Office OF the Hall Construc.
tion company and one will be given you.

cate herself of the charges on which the
school board had seen fit to dismi ss her.
When she flashed reviewing the trans
cript the case was adjourned until next
Saturday.
The case created much interest among
the residents of the city and not few
were in attendance to hear the testimony
1t was an amusing procedure to those
present, as it is not very often one has
the opportunity Of attending trial over
which woman presides. Some likened
it to a kangaroo court, inasmuch as some
of the incidents in connection with the
case were very amusing to say the least.
During the progress OF the trial about
dozen Of Miss Carson's former young
lady pupils filed into the room and took
seats in the rear of the room where they
would not be too conspicuous and yet not
too remote from the front to hear what
was going on. The arrival of the femi-
nine visitors occasioned hurried con-
sultations among the judge, school board
and attorneys, as to what method had
best be resorted to to rid the room OF the
unwelcome visitors. While the consults-
tions were being carried on in muffled
tones, the young twelve tumbled to the
fact that their room was preferable to
their company and Immediately with
drew. After good laugh over the ac-
tions OF the young ladies in leaving with
out being asked, in which everyone hear
tily INDUCED, the case was continued.
Next Saturday the taking of testimony
will be finished and cross examinations
commenced. 1t is expected the case will
be completed ere commencement week.

The Next Attraction.

1.-The Missouri Girl is a comedy
drama that produces more genuine
hearty laughter than anything yet writ
ten. In connection with strong and
interesting plot, it contains the most lu-
dicrous situations ever conceived. The
company presenting the play this season
is composed of some Of the best known
people in the theatrical profession. who
are fully able Of extracting this fun, and
doling it out to the public in most sat-
isfactory manner. Nine OF the old fay.
orites remain in the cast; some of them
have played their respective roles con-
tinuously for the past eight seasons, this
guarantees a first class performance.
The new people added this season were
selected for their peculiar fitness for
the roles they were to assume and it is
safe to predict that "better than ever"
line can safely be added to the advertis.
ing matter.
The vaudeville portion Of the show has
been enlarged and strengthened. The
same "Yeke" with his famous clodhopper
dances, the same Daisy with her origi.
nal songs and lot OF new specialties,
never before seen in the play will be in
troduced in the birthday scene.
The production will be seen in it's en-.
tirety at the opera house Sunday even
evening, March 18th.

The Clifford claim has long been
known to contain rich ore, a ship

as 200 n in silver. This claim
was recently acquired by the above
company. Sinking has been begun
on a five foot ledge, which shows
punches of ore ~assaying as high as
500 ounces in silver. The ledge as
a whole is of a fair grade and shows
Improvement at the bottom of the
incline, which is down about 10
feet, and by sorting a good grade OF
shipping ore is obtained. The ledge
can be traced the whole length OF
the claim, and shows quartz in
places IL feet wide.

MONTANA ISSUES.
PRINTED REPORT
PROPERTY IN FINE CONDITION
FINANCIALLY AND AS TO
MINERALS

The printed report of the Monta-
na-Tonopah Mining Company has
Just been issued. 1t Is dated at Salt
Lake City on September IL, 1906.
1t covers the fiscal year 1905-1906
and is most comprehensive. 1t shows
the company to be in a most healthy
state. both financially and as to min
eral resources. The total work for
the year was 1~O,S47.07 feet Dr. a
grand total of 2~2,S52.29 feet. Dur
ing the year just closed nearly as
much work was done as that for the
combined period from 1903. The
years shipments were 5,7SS tons,
while it was estimated that ore to
the extent of 1876 tons have been
placed on the dump. President Chas.
E. Knox, referring to the question
of dividends, says; with the small
equipment it was impossible for us
to pay dividends and do the neces-
sary development work. With the
new equipment in place. and in OPP
Grafton it is possible for us to ac-
cumulate a surplus and pay a diyi-
dend before the mill is completed.
He expects great results from the
milling process and an enormous in.
come it is figured will inure to the
company. Based upon his figures
the wisdom of the directors in cur
failing the shipments is clearly ap
parent. He expresses much com
!, mendation upon the work of the for
mer general manager, J. A. Kirby
and in closing pays a high tribute t.
the present general manager, Mar
l.. Kerr.

wATER MAIN BURST.

At about $3.50 last night the
water pipe on Main street, opposite
the Vienna bakery broke sending a
flood of water down the street, A
force of men hurried to the scene
and work started to locate the
cause of the trouble. 1t was neces-
asry to shut off the water between
Brougher and eddie avenues on
Main street. 1t took about an hour
to repair the break. The bursting
o. the line is attributed to the
heavy pile of dirt taken from the
excavation for the new Merchants
Hotel which was heaped on the
street directly over the main.
