Postmaster Inthe man of the man of
Postoffice Inspector Fletcher be-
lieves that Richmond has enough sub
stations, but Postmaster Spekenhier
believes that a new station should be
established in northwest West Rich

place at present on the west side
where the residents can purchase the
special delivery stamps, the postoffice
money orders and registers mail. Mr..
Spekenhier is very firm in his de-

On the other hand the republicans
would gain through an application Of
the eye for an eye and tooth for
tooth policy. If they unseat the three.
senators from Marion county. which
they would probably do il they started
anything at all. they would gain three
senator's who would be hold-overs.
These three republican senators would
serve not only at this session but also
at the session two years hence when
a successor TO Senator Beveridge is 10
be elected. And a gain of three votes
for this purpose would not be bad at
all. There is no telling what the poll
teal complexion of the 1911 legisIa-
ture will be and it might come in very
handy to have an additional three re-
publican senators to vote for the re-
election of Senator Beverage.
Three Contests Pending.
Soon after the election the three
defeated republican candidates for
senator in Marion county filed con-
tests in the superior court here and
these contests are still pending. So 1t
would be easy enough for the repub-
licans in the senate to give them their
seats on the ground that they were
defeated through fraud. And the SEN
ate, like the house, is the exclusive
judge Of the eligibility and qualifica-
lions of its own members. There 10

Rich Chunk OF
Rock From
7TrOughs

One of the richest and largest spe-
cimens of gold and silver ore ever
found in this country. and one that
places its producer in the foremost
ranks of the high grade mines, was
on exhibition in Lovelock Wednes-
day, according to the Lovelock Trib-
une. 1t came from stope at the
800 foot level in the main workings
of the Seven Troughs Mining COM
pany's property near Vernon. The
specimen weighs fraction over 32
pounds, and its value can be easily
estimated at $40 per pound. At this
rate, the piece of rock, though SEEM
ingly small, is worth more than ST.
200. A peculiarly of the rock is the
fact that the gold is not confined to
one spot, as is usually the case with
other and smaller specimens, but is
peppered all through, and in some
places the gold is massed. Not alone
does the gold show in large quanti-
ties but ryby and sulphides of silver
are found in abundance. The speci-
men, together with two gold bars.
weighing aggregately 4200S ounces.
also products from the Seven Troughs
Mining companys property, will be
taken east and placed on exhibition.
