A % extinct species of bird which
formerly inhabited Rodrigues was
flightless, but an outgrowth of bone at
the joint of the radius and metacar-
pus formed a knob that rendered the
short wing as dangerous among birds
as a policeman's billy.

CONVENTION
Is Now Thing of the Past
and Delegates Have
Left the City.
HOTEL LoBBIEs QUIET

The great national convention for
1907 of the N. A. l.. G. has come and
gone. and Canton is again assuming
the even tenor of her way. This was
indeed great convention, composed
as II was OF over 1900 men and rep
resenting every state in the union.
The delog1tes 10 this convention
have left very favorable impression
with citizens of Canton, as they are re-
cognized as being body OF men OF ex-
ceptional intellectually and business
ability. The business sessions were
conducted along parliamentary lines
in manner which would lend credit
to an organization of acknowledged
parliamentarlans.
Great credit is due the local letter
carriers for having secured for Can
ton this gathering, and also TO the
various committees which so sue
cessfully arranged and executed the
plans for the entertainment OF the
visitors.
How much Canton profited financial
ly by reason of the convention being
held here. is Of course, conjeetural,
but certain II is that no such gather
ing of ladies and gentlemen can re-
main in city Of Centon's size, with
out leaving pleasant memories and
permanent influences for good among
the citizens.
All outgoing trains yesterday car
rled away from our city these dele
gates, their wives and friends until
by evening the hotel lobhies present

pared with last week.

retary Ed. ]. Cantwell VIII remain for
day or two TO finish several mat
ters which could not be closed up
until after the close OF the conyen-
ton when they will leave for their
homes in the east.

AN ANALYSIS
Of Dissension Between
N. a. /. Q. and Post
office Department.
VIEWS ARE DIVERGENT

The origin Of the dissension which
has been manifest between the n. A.
/. c. and the postofilce department
at Washington for some months past
and which has been the cause OF no
little agitation among the members
OF the n. A. l. c, has been very diff
ferently assigned by the various
branches and members OF the associ-
alton,
Many Of the members contend that
the department officials at Washing
ton have attempted tC take unto
themselves for political reasons or
otherwise, credit for the recent salary
legislation, credit, which Tightfully
belongs 10 the association, as brought
about through It's board OF officers,
with j. D. Holland at its head Those
who take this view OF the situation
feel that while II IS right and proper
for the N. A. l.. c. 10 recognize the
authority OF the postal department,
the department has stepped beyond
its jurisdiction IN an attempt TO sub
ordinate the ". A. L. c. TO degree
where the department is attempting
TO dictate the policy and operation
Of the ". A, L. C.
Another element OF the N A. u. c.
maintains that the board OF oficerS
of the association over.stepped the
bounds Of propriety In the manner OF
urging the legislation and that the
postoflce department officials are fol-
lowing Just precedent IN the treat
ment which Il has accorded President
J d, Holland personally and as the
official head Of the n. A. L. c. This
faction does not look with favor upon
the action Of the convention at its
Friday morning session in voting an
appropriation OF $4,000 for the re-
firing president, ]. d. Holland. It
is contended by the faction that this
action OF the convention will estab-
lish a dangerous precedent which is
likely 10 involve the nationaI assoei-
attic. in serious trouble hereafter.
another view which has been ad-
vanc.d by some of the leading mem
bers OF TIE N. A. l.. c. who do not

tives or ambitions, but who view tho
origin and course OF the trouble from
an impartial standpoint, Is that neith-
er tho post Office department officials
at Washington nor the N. A. l.. c.,
neither as a body, nor it's officials by
reason Of the prestige which their Of
flee might give them, are entitled to
the credit which they claim for them
selves.
Ills view is supported by the con-
tent'on that whatever legislation has
been enacted for the betterment of
the mail carriers. especially that per-
tai ling TO increase OF salaries. has
been enacted since tie establishment
OF the rural service and has been
brought about by the influence OF the
different conlp csamea. each working
for the good Of his respective district
and incidentally for the retention OF
bis neat congress.

er percentage of voters than the city
mail service includes. II Is to this
large number of voters to whom the
congressman find It toStheir advan-
tage TO pay some heed,
Congress could not consistently
vote ae50 per cent increase OF salaries
to its own members, without recogniz-
ing the equity of the demands of their
rural constituency for an increase OF
salaries Of the rural mail carriers.
The advancing of the rural carriers
salaries from $500 to $72O and again
at the last session of congress to 5000
per year naturally compelled an In.
crease in the salaries Of the city car
riers.
This latter Is the situation as re-
CARDS the matter Of salaries as view

strange bedfellows, or do strange bed

HEAD OF NINE MILE
Three Companies Working on the Same
Big Ledge

The head of Nine Mile is once
more the scene Of much mining ac-
tivity. Since Geo. H. Heller re-
turned from a months visit to the
North Fork country work has been
resumed in the tunnel Of the West
Nine Mile. It is a diagonal drift
on the vein 10 feet long and has
already proved the ledge to be over
30 feet wide without disclosing
either wall, though it has opened up
no less than five streaks of galena
from few inches to foot wide.
The Nine Mile also resumed work
recently. An upraise will be driven
from the main tunnel to connect
with the shaft which opened up a
12-foot ledge of concentrating
galena. 1t adjoins the West Nine
Mile on the east.
The Log Goblin company, whose
group Of II claims adjoins the West
Nine Mile on the west, has it's cross
cut tunnel in over 600 feet and ex-
poets to reach the ledge within the
next hundred feet. O. H. Linn.

COPPER KING MANAGEMENT

The Miner is informed on what
appears to be good authority that
Harry w. Ingalls, of Mullan, a
large shareholder in and former
manager of the Copper King
company, is now in Spokane
arranging with W. D. yGreenough
to take over the arrangement.
The Miner hopes ty be able to
inform its readers in the next
issue what the plans of the new
management will be. There
seems to be a general impression
that in view Of the present de-
pressed condition Of the stock
market it will be necessary to
levy an assessment to provide
working capital.

The failure Of the shareholders 81
the Reindeer company to furnish
either the Bracking- Ebbley COM
pany or Herrick 4 Hall with suffic-
lent proxies to vote a majority Of
the issued stock of the company
necessarily resulted in a compro-
mise at the special meeting held at
Mullan yesterday. This compro-
mise leaves the Bracking- Ebbley
company in possession Of the exec
utive Offices, president and secre-
tary, Norman Ebbley being the
former and manager as we'll and
G. B. Wilcox the latter. The pro-
testing shareholders are represented
by w. H. Herrick Of Herrick &
Hall as vice president, f. G. Nor

and S. D. Lemieux, merchant of
Black Bear, as the fifth director.
The composition Of the board is a
guarantee that from now on the
business OF the company will be
honestly ndAt1eiently managed.
Only 5lWM shares were repre-
sented at Me meeting, there being
about $4,000 shares issued and

Attorneys James A. Wayne and

as to the legality Of steps taken and
proposed to be taken.
After three of the dummy direc-
tors had resigned and their places
filled as above stated, the books of

insufficient funds being found to be

make it legal it was decided to
begin its advertisement all over
again, thus giving such sharehOld-
ers as have not already paid it 45
days in which to do so. The action
Of the company in moving its head
Office to Wallace was also approved.
A new plan Of development Of
the property was also submitted
and adopted. This involves the
construction of a 2,8OO-foot tunnel
that will give no feet Of depth
below the present workings. The
compressor plant will be moved
down the hill to- the site of the new
tunnel and a new hume built which
will increase the power by utilizing
more water under a greater pres
sure. A final survey OF the tunnel
will be made at once and work on
the tunnel will begin as soon as the
engineers are through.
