The richest strike yet chronicled in
the Ramsey district was made a few
DAYS ago on the fourth level of the
Ramsey-Comstock. There have been
exposures made on other levels of the
property but none to equal the recent
strike. The management of the Ram
sey-Comstock is now completing ar
rangements for a mill. 1t is probable
that, pending the time this reduction
plant is completed. there will be a num-
Der of rich shipments to the shelters.
Events are coming fast at the rich
walkover mine now that the shaft is
being lowered to the second level. says
the Recorder. They are sinking an In
cline on the hanging wall side and are
following the 6-foot vein of rich ore.
The ore body had dipped from the shaft
a short distance above the first level,
because of a fault but 1t was picked up
again at the 100-foot point and now
they are sinking on the ore all the
while. which during the last few days
has been growing decidedly richer.
Over in that part of the district near
Biddleman Springs the Gold King group
is being steadily developed. A dyke.
the extent of which has not yet been
determined, is under development and
some rich quartz has been uncovered.
while at nominal depth 1t may be stated
there is an exposure of a large body of
milling grade ore.

of the camp. is sinking a shaft on. the

of town. A ledge about three feet wide
at surface is being developed and with
the shaft scarcely started has widened

across. h quartz exposed in the
shaft pans free gold in great shape.
while occasional tests show up long
strings of colors. Every indication is
at hand that a wide vein of high grade
will be exposed at nominal depth. with
a good chance for a strike of sensational
nature.
1t has been reported that the Consol-
dated property is to shortly resume
operation OF the Dago group of claims
back of town. The slump caused a shut
down of this valuable property and 1T Is
sincerely to be hoped something will
soon ~transpire to allow further explora-
tion of the big lodges trending through
the claims.
The owners of the Midnight group
are getting a permanent camp estab-
lished on the ground and expect to have
two shifts steadily at work next week.
The Garavanta mines continue under
steady development. Several places on
the group are being put in first class
condition for future operation and the
owners are making ready to sink very
much deeper on the main shaft

From Belleview.

From 1890 until 600 Friday
afternoon, it rained almost con-
tinuously in this locality. The
early planted corn crops are far
enough advanced now that a few
more good rains will assure a
fair yield of corn. Corn, general
ly, is much better than had been
anticipated, two months ago.
There is an excellent mast, both
white-oak and blackjack, and
hogs on the range will get fat
without any corn. This will be
quite an item to those farmers
who live near the stock ra nge.
S. E. Buford and John Goggin
were on Imboden Monday buying
cattle; they succeeded in getting
several head of young cattle,
which they drove into Belleview.
Messrs. Buford and Goggin always
pay fair price for stock, and, of
course, never fail to get just about
what they want in the stock line.
J. H. Price made a trip to IRON
ton Wednesday after school books;
but, like all others who go after
books these days, returned with
out them, as they could not be
found in Ironton.
The people are certainly having
a lot of trouble this year in get
ting books for their children.
Judge Buford and Judge Meyer
were in Ironton this week attend
ing Court.
Rev. Nash is working in Granite
vile this week.
Mrs. w. Johnston visited rela-
tives on East Fork Saturday and
Sunday.
DR.. Adams has returned home,
after two or three weeks. tour of
the west.
Mrs. J. M. Hawkins visited Mrs.
Patterson, Monday last.
There is some talk that DR..
Charles Fitzpatrick, of Lesterville,
will locate in Belleview in the near
future, for the purpose of practice
ing medicine. Belleview valley
is very desirable location for q
young doctor.
1t is said that Charley Smith
will open school here Monday.
Mr.. Smith was, we understand, a
candidate in the recent primary
election in Washington County
for Representative, on the Repub-
lican ticket. If he received the
nomination, and is successful in
the November election, of course
he will not be able to finish out his
term of school here.
P. g. Carly made some needed
repairs on the public school
building this week.
Jake Heinz is having his house
weather boarded, using very
fine grade of drop-siding.

Where Travelling Is Healthful and
Instructive.

Have you been to Yellowstone
Park? No? Then yon have yet
to see Americas Greatest Won
derland, the scenic center of the
continent. Everyone must know
the geysers, the canyons and the
mountains before they know
America, though they may have
seen all else.
This summer an excellent op-
portunity is offered for combining
with an outing in the mountains a
pleasant journey to Yellowstone.
The trip can be made through the
heart of scenic Colorado-Pueblo,
Colorado Springs, Denver, The
Garden of the Gods, Pixies Peak,
Glenwood Springs, Salt Lake City
with it's Mormon Temples, Og-
den and Pocatello-to Yellowstone,
the front gate of the great Nation
al Park.
The round trip rate is very low
and good for return until October
81. You can stop over at any
point in the scenic regions. The
Missouri Paciic-lron Mountain
offers the choice of routes, and full
information regarding rates and
schedules are to be obtained from
G. E. Downey, agent at Ironton,
Mo.

From GoodWateP.

The abundant rains of the past
month here have caused a luxuri-
ant growth of vegetation of all
kinds. Corn is growing we'll, gar
dens are producing finely and pas.
lures are good.
Threshing was done here by
Frank Graves and Frank Crocker.
The yield of wheat and oats was
very unsatisfactory.
Haying has been nearly COM
pleted. Much hay, of good quail
ty, has been moved and stacked.
Millet is doing we'll and promises
good yield.
Stockmen have purchased cattle
here recently, paying from two
and half to three cents per pound
for them.
Our school teacher, Mr.. Joshua
Bays, of Tolu, sprung a surprise
on his relatives and friends. He
was married to Miss May Wright,
of Steelville, Mo-, on July 3, about
ten days before the event became
known hereabouts. May they
prove congenial help-meets to
each other, and prosperity attend
them.
Mr.. James Lewis, our genial as
SCISSOR, made his last call on us
on the 17th inst. 1t is doubtful
whether Iron County ever had a
more popular and impartial officer.
May he enjoy many years of
health and happiness.
Many of our young people at
tended picnics at Sligo, Belgrade,
Greeley, and Iron Ore Springs
near Courtois-during the past
month.
During July the following named
persons came here on business:
Mr.. Geo. Dickens, of Brazil, Mo-. i;

His View Of 1t.
Now as TO holding up for drunkenness is
the least of my plan,

Now as TO holding up for drunkenness is
the least of my plan,
Or to be pulled around by doctrine of man.
The Scriptures will teach US, if we only
will read.
Tho do not think we should just stand
and wait,
Till sorrow comes marching right up to our
gate.
He teaches US when we pray to be submis-
sive at heart.
Then surely we must from all prejudice part.
He tells us to repent and become as child,
And he will be with us all the while.
He says "Be ye not drunken" then we
know this is wrong, .. ...
The Scriptures don't teach us that none the
way long. ...
He says, "Be ye steadfast," then we know
that we must not turn or even lean.
He says, "What God has created let no man
call common or unclean."
He says, "Be ye temperate in all things"
Then how will we make this out to mean:
"To him that esteemeth any thing to be un-
clean to him it is unclean."
Yes, our Savior did many miracles and He
did them well.
We are bound to admit that he doeth all
things we'll.
But while he was here in this lovely land,
Did he take any one sin away from mani
Or did God, when he gave Adam his sec
ond command,
Take away the tree or leave it stand?
Did our Saviour speak of forcing all men to
do right
By taking sin clear out of his sight?
Or did He say "Choose ye this day whom
ye will serve"
Aud thus leave US to read and find
How we would make up our mind?
Now my mind on the question is settled, so
I neither move nor bulge.
AS to only using His name as false pretense
For the demon drink,
I'll leave that with the Just Judge.
For if God had worked on the Local OPP
ton plan,
And taken away. the tree and left Adam
stand,
1 might then see that their plan would do,
And step over and push Local Option
through.
As it is | can't agree with that plan,
So guess | will remain where stand.

From Annapolis.

Well, Mr.. Editor, the weather
has moderated and we have had
a fine rain, and it seemed to be a
general rain, for miles around.
The eleC lion is over and in gen.
eral people are satisfied with the
success of all candidates in the
field, and at the general election it
is hoped that the full Democratic
ticket will be supported in full
man to man, and that all Demo-
Gratis will try to get to the polls
and cast their votes without a
scratch to any true Democrat on
the ticket.
On the night of the 4th day of
August, 1908, the church house
was burned to the ground at 9 P. M.
o'clock. Kindling was dope taken
from box car by some miscreant
and OUTLAW in this immediate vi
cinity.
On the afternoon of August 4th
Sam Kemp, Ed. Kemp, Dick
Kemp, William Brewer and Henry
Brewer became "How come you
SOP" for which warrant was
sworn out and they were arrested
by D. A. Worley and brought be-
fore Esquire Kitchell, and there
requested to give bond in the sum
of five hundred dollars to keep
the peace and appear before the
said justice of the peace to be tried
on the 7th day of August, 1908, for
which they did, and on entering a
plea of guilty, we're fined 81. each
and costs. VIM. and Henry
Brewer and Dick Kemp paid up
and Sam and Ed. Kemp failed to
produce the money and were COM
mitted to Jail for ten days, or pay
the ST, and the State will hold
them for twenty days more. They
claimed they would eat the blood
of the Annapolis people before
they would be arrested or pay a
fine, and yet claim they will take
Annapolis. But we don't think
they will.
Esquire Kitchell made q flying
trip to Bismarck Saturday last
and in his rounds saw Mr.. Beck,
whom he had not seen for years;
also Stephen Tullock, of Ironton,
Mo-, with basket in hand we'll
filed with juices of life. Happy
old coon is he!
A. j. Hurrell made a flying trip
to Ironton in the afternoon Friday
on business with one Mr.. Taylor
of Latin Branch in Iron County.
Benny Funk is very low yet but
it is hoped he may recover.
Hurrah for William j. Bryan
and the county Democratic ticket!
Come again by exclaiming that
there were but two horses that
pulled the rig from Prescott to
Dotson, instead of four as pub
lished last week.
Also the man or lady writing
to the Des Arc Kronikle doesn't
know whether Esquire Kitchell
saw his girl or the girl saw him
while on his sojourn to see her,
and ought to learn how and what
to write hereafter and not get the
horse before the cart.
Good bye.

Fatal Explanatlons.

Nothing is more fatal to friendly
relations than complaints and re-
proaches and demands for explana-
tios. People must be judged in the
Wilderness of their conduct. A thou
sand subtle influences, unexpected and
unforeseen events, have their action
and reaction on life. A thousand things
occur that can neither be analyzed nor
defined. Many temporary alienation
is effectively overcome by silence. Re-
proaches, questionings, but widen the
gulf. Leaving 1t alone, taking up other
interests and ideas, bridge 1t over.
