SERVING LUNCHES IN
NEW COURT HOUSE
Veteran Is Filled With Mortifi-
cation Lets Sentiment Run
Away With Judgment.

Mr.. Editor: Many read the follow
ing editorial in The Herald and
News with surprise, regret and morti-
fication:
"It seems to us that the new court
house should not be used for serving
lunches or for public gatherings.
The old court house could be used for
these political meetings. We have a
nice building and should not have it
abuscd.'
The ladies of Ncwucrrv refused the
use of the new court house! Is there
anything too new, too nice, too costly,
too beautiful to lay at the Feet of our
women? We say not. Our homes. our
churches, arc clean and nice, and, in
stead of soilin" the court house. their
presence there would have clcansed
and purified it.
Let us look at these two pictures :

to how pleasant the building did
look once.

WILL RIVAL The

That the Great Western mine at

silver ore is the opinion of mining 4
men who have been watching the de- |
velopment OF the property. Recent
Improvement in the ore shoot of the
shaft, both as to size and grade, and |
the widening of the shoot in the bot
tom of the level indicate that below
lies an immense body of high class
ore. The company will start sinking
next week, and will drop the shaft
down from the 100-foot level, 100
feet before again connecting with the
ore.
| The last car shipped from the mine
contained SO tons, 800 pounds of
ore, which was settled for this week
by the Observation-Disclosures Reduction
Company, brought the company
| $113.50 per ton, an dthe last two
cars produced revenue of $1,000.
Another car is loaded at Cuprite and
five more cars are sacked at the
mine, waiting for wagons. The car
at Cuprite and the five at the mine
are of even better grade than the
last one shipped.
Down below fifteen men are dig
ging ore, on the 100-foot level and

OUR INCREASE IN TAXABLE VAL.
UES.

The News has maintained steadily
that Brunswick has suffered less and
has held up better under the panicky
condition than most cities in the coun-
try. 1t must be remembered that this
manufactured panic. fer it is nothing
else, is growing old now and has been
with us nine or ten months. In that
time. while we have of course ex-
.penenced a depression in the general
situation, yet we have had no failures
.of note. no Withdrawals from trade
and no crashing generally. But 10
cap the climax here comes Receiver
|of Tax returns, j. f. Dnbherly with
his figures fer the year 1905 showing
an increase in taxable values OF $242,-
$1,000.
An increase in taxable property of
practically a quarter million dollars in
a county the size Of Glynn in days OF
unprecedented prosperity is a GOOD
Irecord. but we come to the front in
the times of a panic ana make this
splendid showing 1t is simply mag
nifcent. and is an apt answer 10 hand
cut to the pessimist and the calamity
bowler.
This showing made by the tax re.
.oelyer is an the more gratifying.
when it is recalled that this report
|only includes values that are taxable
and exempts such properly as the new
court house, The new churches. etc..
