NEW STRIKE AT FAIRVIEW
EXTENDS KNOWN PAY BELT

The drift running west from the cross
cut is now in about s feet and 1t Is CAL
culated to strike the main ledge run
ming east and west with a further dis
lance of 4 to 6 feet. The depth viii be
about 80 feet.
About 20 feet down the shaft a
stringer from the ledge makes its APP
pearance and 5 feet lower this spreads
out into the body Of vein matter and
mineralizes 1t for about 2 feet across.
Some of the rock was this week taken
from this part of the shaft and PANIED
The results showed up very well in free
gold. Upon the leasers reaching the
ledge for which they are now drifting.
1t is probable that work will be re-
sumed on the shaft with a view to fol-
lowing this feeder to the main ledge.
No assay has yet been made of the rock.
and it is quite likely that such returns
would show 1t to be of a high shipping
grade.
PYRAMID GROUP
The operations in the tunnel OF the
Pyramid mine proceed satisfactorily.
The face is now in about ESQ feet. 1t
will be necessary to construct another
upraise for ventilation with rs to 80
feet of further excavation.
This week about 8 feet of good look
ing quartz came into the tunnel and
thus far would seem to retain Its width
and permanency. Samples have been
taken but It is not known what the as
say returns show. The appearance of
the rock would seem to promise good
values in gold.
The Pyramid looks in excellent shape
and promises to develop into a big pro-

LOOKOUT GROUP
There is little new in the way of de-
velopments of the past week on these
claims. Work is progressing satisfac-
torily on IN crosscuts which nave now

feet on either side of the shaft. Moth
ing of vein matter has yet made its ap-
pearance. The contract calls for zoe
feet of prosecuting in all. so that about
100 feet still remain before the present
contract is completed.
CYCLONE PROPERTY
This tunnel has been driven in a dis
lance of 200 feet. The men are now
drifting north and south along the ledge
and have already gone about so feet each
way. C-rosscutting has also been In

The city solicitor is quoted as say
ing that his opinion is that Secretary
S. A. Fowler, of the board of public
works, is ineligible. biased on lnfor-
nation that he has changed his per-
manent residence" Now a city So
licitor. when he prepares to deliver
an opinion, should always first get
the facts. Who gave the solicitor the
information that Mr.. Fowler had
changed his permanent residence?
He has not done so yet, and says he
does not intend TO. Who is the judge
of whether or not person has
changed his permanent residence,
that person himself, or some one
else? When the mayor moves to the
country every year, he claims he
doesn't change his permanent resi-
dence, and no one has yet arrogated
to himself the right TO say that he
does change II. The solicitor, fol-
lowing the precedent established in
the Fowler case, however, will no
doubt now have to decide that the
mayor is ineligible when he moves to
the country this spring because the
mayor, like Mr. Fowler. will have
nothing to say about where his per-
manent home is. The solicitor will
have to depend on information re-
ceived" to decide where the mayors
permanent residence is. We are
still-willing to wager ten to one that
the mayor has to spend the summer
in town.

Lakewood, n. j., Feb. i5.-Al-
though John A. Mccall. former pres
ldent OF the New York Life Insurance
company, was resting comfortably to-
day, DR.. Charles l.. Lindley, his ply
stefan, said he has very little chance
of recovery. The physician said he

that he anticipated no immediate
crisis in the disease. The nature of
Mr.. MoCall's complaint was not
stated by Or. Llndley. but it was said

ship nor was ii corporate control. On
the one hand there was the political
influence, which is one of the evils
of city ownership; on the other,
there was that disregard of the de-
mands of the consumers which mark
cooperate monopoly.
Recently water consumers have
been refused equal treatment from
the company, street sprinkling COM
panies having been shut out to pro-
tect the Tramway Sprinkling compa-
ny.
These and other abuses have be-
come intolerable; so intolerable that
the new city government has been
compelled to show some regard to
public opinion, as expressed by Judge
O'Neal in his campaign speeches dis
cussing the water company.
The result is a bill introduced in
the legislature yesterday by Chris
Mueller, drawn, it is said, by Judge
Richards and approved by Mr.. Barth
and Mr.. Long.
Under it. no doubt, the present
regime, will be continued for a while
longer, but in two years after the
people resume control of the city
government they will be able to get
control of the water company.

THIS IS HOW 1T WOULD BE DONE


THIS is HOW 1T WOULD BE DONE
The question is asked every day,
'fHow can a private company make
and furnish street lights cheaper
than the city, operating its own
plant?"
Ii is really too plain a business
proposition TO necessitate much of an
explanation, but II can be easily ex-
planned, and in this way;
The city, in operating its own
plant. now employs a superintendent
at 500 a month. an engineer at $40
a month, a fireman and two trim
mers. The salaries of the superin-
tendent and engineer alone amount
to 5000 a year, not adding that of
the fireman and two trimmers. which
together will go to over $1,000. The
salary list alone now amounts to
s3,7S0 year. The fuel last year
amounted to s1,67S.S5. This rep
resents, estimated, about s5,45S of
the annual cost of the city's operat-
ing the plant.
III the traction company had the
contract for furnishing these lights
it would save nearly every dollar of
it, 1t now has a plant that runs
twenty-four hours a day, yielding
revenue every minute. Its engine
capacity is already such that Il can
run a plant large enough to furnish
the city lights, without much more
fuel than 1t now uses There would
of course be some incres Sc, but II
would be only nominal The engine
used in the daytime to operate its car
machinery If necessary could be used
at night for the street lights. II
might have to put in some addi-
tional or larger machinery for the
lights, but here is what ii would save
that the city now has to spend an
nually without deriving a cent of
revenue from it:
Salary of superintendent, salary of
engineer and fireman and the greater
part of the fuel used by the city.
The company's superintendent would
look after the lights, its regular en-
gineers and firemen would run the
engines and very little more fuel
would be needed than it now uses.
OF the city's light plant force it
would need only the two trimmers.
The city now pays salaries to all
these men, besides for the fuel. with
out a dollar of income to Offset ii.
The street car company would save
95 per cent of the total expense for
the things enumerated above. by hav-
ing its present force look after the
work.
That is how the traction company
can furnish street lights so much
cheaper than the city of Paducah can
do it herself.

Railroad Commissioner Med. Fer
guson has gone to Frankfort to at
tend a meeting of the Kentucky rail-
road commission, which began an in
definite session today for the purpose
of considering all tariffs as applied
to twenty railroads in this state. An
idea of the volume of business that
will confront the commission Is COW
veyed in the statement that it will
have $50 900 classified tariffs to in
vestigate. These rates apply to p
600 shipping points. Nine thousand
commodities are embraced in the
rate schedule. Inasmuch as the

ONE OF KENTUCKY'S BIGGEST
CRAFTS.


A bill has been introduced in the
legislature which if passed will prob
ably give Louisville politicians COM
plete control of the water works
there. The city of Louisville has
owned the water plant for a good
many years, and it has long been
claimed that it was one of the most
prolific sources of graft in the state
of Kentucky, but things were ma
nipulated so adroitly that little evil
dence could be produced to sustain
the damaging charges made.
AS the plant is now run, the city
apparently has no direct control over
It, but the people it is alleged, have
been, nevertheless, wantonly plum
dered by the politicians because Of
fat contracts landed by their pull. If
the new bill passes, the plant will be
in complete control of the same gang
that stole the recent elections in
Louisville. II will remain in con-
troll of whatever administration hap
pens to be in power, and the peoples
only chance will be to get control of
the city two years hence. They can
then run It to suit themselves, which
will probably mean a new crop of
grafters in due course of time, for
Louisville Is one of the most notori-
ously corrupt cities. politically
speaking, in the United States
The Louisville Post of yesterday
gives the following facts in regard
to the water company bill:
The city of Louisville owns the
entire stock of the water company.
The sinking fund commissioners are
the custodians of the stock holding
it as collateral for the payment of
the city's bonded debt
The general council elects the com
missioners; the commissioners elect
the board of directors of the water
company; the directors select the Of
ficers, and the officers run things.
1t has been manifest for some time
that an end must be put to this com
plicated and unsatisfactory state of
affairs, under which the owners of
the property had only a remote and
contingent control and the patrons
had no voice whatever.
The law forbids any city officer to
have any contract with the city, but
the mayor and the aldermen have
contended that the water company
was not a city department, and they
could have any contracts they could
get
