next week advertise lot of city
property for sale for taxes. If
you are owing tax and wish to

penalty, you had better pay the
amount of tax you owe the city

A. e. Wilson, of Louisville,
one of the leading Republicans
of the State, is highly spoken of
as the Republican nominee for
for Governor. Mr.. Wilson is
good man, says some. This may
be true, but he is not good e.
nough to beat S. W. Hager for
Governor.

Kentucky VS.. indian Territory.

A Lincoln county man last
Spring became infatuated with
the rapturous stories of the West,
teeming with prosperity and I'M
developed wealth, disposed of
his Kentucky interests and locat-
ed in Indian Territory.
There he purchased farm and
cultivated it to find that its pow
ers of production were about half
as prolific as the soil of Kentucky
and that the markets are much
inferior. In fact, the same grade
of corn that is now selling in Ken
lucky at go cents per bushel, is
drag on the Indian Territory
market at half that amount--30c.
So this now wiser Kentuckian
contends that one acre of good
land in this State is worth four
in the West, and he has the fig
ures on it and figures wont lie.

The Canning Factory.

The canning factory at Stan
ton is about completed. This
plant will be of great benefit to
the business of Stanton and the
farmers around the town. Clay
City took this canning factory
business up several weeks ago,
and at one time it looked like
we would sure get factory, but
suddenly the matter was dropped
and it died. We congratulate
Stanton on her enterprise and
wish for her the success which
the hustler deserves.

CLAY CITY, KY, THURSDAY. FEBRUARY u 1907

Monday is county court day at
Stanton when the Sheriff will
sell lot of land and property
for tax. Under a new law a
deed can be obtained in two
years to real estate. This will
make bidding on tax land more
liberal, and be the cause of many
more sales being consumated.

Increase If Pensions.

Many of the old war veterans
are benefited by the recent PEN
sion bill which has become law.
By this it means that at the
next draw day all soldiers of the
Mexican and Civil wars between
so and 20 years will receive no
less pension than $12 per month !;
soldiers between 20 and rs, SIS
per month; soldiers over Is, $40
per month.
We know of but three survi-
vors of the Mexican war, Elder
N. Mcintosh, Spout Spring, j.
w. Jones, Union Hall, and W.
M. Bells, of this city. All of
these are of course now on the
pension rolls, but they have been
getting a very inadequate sum.

capitalized for one million shares
of a par value of one dollar each,
and the present value reported
to be two dollars per share.
The holdings of this company
comprise one hundred fifty acres
of mineral territory that is tray
ersed by a assure vein a short
distance west OF parallel with
the Trade Dollar. tits being de-
veloped by a cross-cut tunnel
from which the vein can be drift
ed on at considerable depth. The
Banner vein, in a shallow upper
tunnel and drift, makes a very
handsome showing. 1t is of the
same character and carries the
same class of minerals as the
famous Trade Dollar near by.
The wall rocks in these upper
workings are rhyolite, and some
very rich specimen ore has been
found in the upper tunnel, where
the vein is Of good size, three to
eight feet wide, and carries excel
lent milling values on the aver
age. The work on this property
is being done by contract and
nine hundred feet ofcross-cutting
and drifting has been done dur
ing the past year.
The short gulch below the Ban
ner vein has been noted for the
production OF big nuggets of ma
tive gold. The vein is persistent
through this and adjacent pro
perties. 1t will doubtless pene-
trate the three formations, as
was experienced in its famous
neighbor, and its extensive de-
velopment by drifting from the
new tunnel promises some very
interesting results.

this company, Hon. John Lamb,

For q State Park.

Make the Payette lakes state
park? Yes, by all means These
beautiful spots, rendered so by the
lavish hand Of nature, should be
preserved and action cannot be
taken too soon. Scattered through
out our land are many places where
Natures great scenic painters have
tarried, 10th to depart, given as
resting places for man from the
tolls and cares of life, where he can
steal away and, surrounded by ma
tural beauties, commune with his
God and thus eradicate the evil
tendencies that beset us. Who is
there among us who does not feel
better bodily, and love his neighbor
better after a brief sojourn in some
spot where the beauties Of nature
have not been marred by the hand
of man. The world cannot furnish
more beautiful spot anywhere
than the Payette lakes, and so easy
of access, and at such small ex-
pense. The time will be when the
Snake river valley will be populat-
ed by teeming thousands and now
is the time to act. Preserve these
beautiful spots before the vandal
hand Of man has robbed them Of
all those requisites that endear them
to the hearts of those who love ma
ture for her beauties
Preserve these lakes and the time
will COME when Idaho will point to
them with pride as Montana does

Payete lakes a state park? Yes,

OWYHEE COUNTY MINES.
(From Report OF Robert n. Bell,
State Mine InspectoD.
The Potosi Mine.

This old property, situated
right in Silver City, was taken
over by the Potosi Mining Com
pany, Ltd, during the year and
is being reopened and further de-
veloped with a crew of twelve
men at the present time. 1t is
developed through a shaft which
is down two hundred feet.
The shaft has been retimbered
and two hundred eighty feet of
new work run, up to December
LIST, since the new company took
hold.
The mine has a record OF rich
ore production in former days
and the new work has encounter
ed some very encouraging results.
The vein strikes north and south
and dips west at a steep angle
The ore occurs in shoots, one
hundred feet or SO in length. The
values run in gold, silver, lead
and copper, and the rich pay
mineral ranges from one to two
feet in width and about one hun
dred dollars per ton in value.
Drifts are now being pushed
out from the lower station on
the Potosi vein and cross-cuts
run to explore a parallel ledge
known as the Knickerbocker,
which formerly produced high
grade ore in some shallow devel-
opment.
The president OF this company
is Mr.. d. C. Nevins and Mr.. w. F.
Summercamp is secretary and
treasurer, both OF Weiser, Idaho,
while Mr.. J. E. Masters is super
iutendent in charge.
The mine is uear the center of
this rich district and is locally
well thought OF. The company
is planning the erection ola com
pressor plant and machine drills,
also a mill for the reduction OF
the ore when the development
has advanced sufficiently.
The mine is now operated with
a thirty horsepower electric hoist,
using twelve hundred pound steel
buckets and capable of handling
ten tons OF material an hour; an
electrical driven Gould station
pump handles the water.

would be given the views % the Score
tary were they Of tre same character
until the matter had been settled by tho
courts.
Mayor Garrtt when informed By 4
Times reporter layt night II lie rcs:lt
Of yesterdays conference said: Owing
10 the conflicting reports tha, l have
received OF the Secretary's Intentions
and the fact that / have not rs Vet
been able to communicate with states
Attorney Peter, can make no definite
statement ase TO the attitude OF the
town Of Glen Echo.
Il have this much II say, however.
and that is regardless OF the decision OF
Secretary Taft or anyone else: not a
single automobilist who has tcpositcd
and forfeited collateral in my court
will ever have one cent Of this money
refunded to him. I understand that
Secretary Taft's de.is.on carries with
it the implied threat tha, the town
may be forced to refund these fines or
he liable TO civil prosecutions. This will
never be, except possibly with three or
four automobilists who appealed their
cases at the time.
Loophole for Garrett.
When an autoist is arrested bv Mar
shall Collins charged with violating the
speed laws. and deposits callateraI 10
ingure his appearance at eourt upon a
certain day, he then and there enters
into binding contract with the town of
Glen Echo which Is irrevocabIe. His
failure to perform the obligations Of this
contract and appear at cour( as stipu-
lated nullifies his rights to recovery and
the money so deposited belongs TO the
municipality. All OF these appearance
bonds have been entered irto in due
legal form and 1 make the statement
that under no circumstances and by no
means whatever will one cent of this
money ever be returned 70 those who
have forfeited 1t.
Until I can communicate with Attor-
ney Peter. who has represented and
stood for the rights Of the State in this
matter all along. 1 can make no further
comment as TO the probable impending
fight between the State and municipal
authorities and the Federal Government.
= discredit one report that has reached
me, however. and that is that Mr.. Peter
agreed with Major Cosby, Mr. Taft and
Mr.. Bonaparte that Marshal Collins had
exceeded his authority in holding I'D the
speed violators.
IF Mr.. Peter had subscribed to this
view / am willing TO cease the fght at
once and will turn over the Glen Echo
reins Of government TO another who Is
willing to take the bounding that I have
endured since l was inductec into Of

shall select a test case and Try II in the
courts for the purpose Of eventually
getting II into the Supreme Court The
question at issue will be whether tre
jurisdiction exercised by the Federal
Government excludes Il e jurisdiction Of
the State Of Maryland.
Taft Sides With Bonaparte.
Secretary Taft declared that willie he
was inclined 10 accept outright the
views OF Attorney General Ponaparte,
yet the Maryland authorities had been
so cons,derate in pres r..nS their views
that ha was desirous % allowing them
10 get the matter adjudicated by means
OF the courts
Secretary Taft, 1t - said, was assured
that the State OF Maryland agrees that
Mayor Garrett has 70 authority 10 act
as he has done In empowering Marshal
Collins 10 stop and arrest automobile
drivers for exceeding a speed limit and
then collecting nncs from them Both
Collins and Mayor Garrett. however.
under tOday's decision, got Il new lease
OF life. They may coltiauc tho mold
ups" but they viii do SO IT ,heri peril.
with the knowledge that both the State
and the Federal Governments arc agreed
that they are acting Illegally and that 4
time OF retribution will come rs soon. as
the larger questions Gf STATE rights are
determined in the courts, according 10
the attitude assumed oy the Federal al
thorities yesterday.
That the mayor and Marshal Collins
are not "bluffed" was evidenced bv
Mayor Garrett's parting shot last night.
as he bade a Times reporter good night.
Collins will be upon the road as
usual tomorrow" said the mayor, and
