Official Paper Of Lincoln County
LOWER RATES ON ORE.

The announcement that the
freight department Of the Salt
Lake Route has voluntarily made
a reduction in the tariff on ores
shipped out of this camp is splen-
did news. While there is an
abundance of high grade ore
available and shipments are be-
ing made right along, there are
many millions Of tons of low
grade material in the mines.
which, if moved under the old
tariff, would leave but a small
margin of profit to the producer,
Officials of the Salt Lake road
have come to appreciate the fact
that Phoebe is the most impor-
tant mining camp penetrated by
their lines; and that they expect
to derive more revenue from the
handling or ore from here than
any other point on the entire
Salt Lake system. We are told
that the Las Vegas & Tonopah
branch is not doing the business
that the Phoebe branch enjoys
now; and Phoebe has only begun
to assert its supremacy. The
development Of the Bullfrog dis
trict, in many respects, has
been a disappointment; compar-
atively little ore is being shipped
from Goldfeld now, because it is
being treated on the ground and
sent out in the form of bullion,
while there are two competing
roads in that territory to divide
the business.
Phoebe is a big tonnage camp
and it's mines show every evi
dence of great permanency
Hence, it behooves the Salt LAX
Route to favor our producers AM
thus create business. As tn
camp grows there will be NOR
passenger traffic, and the incom
ing freight necessary to suppl,
the needs of this population, tn
mines, mills and smelters to b
built here, will reach tremendou
proportions within short tim
if the Salt Lake Route keeps 0
boosting for Phoebe as it ha
started out to do.

NO PROHIBITION IN UTAH.

Statewide prohibition is dead
in Utah. The house of repre-
sentatives passed the Cannon
bill by an almost unanimous
vote. Last Saturday, the SEN
ate killed it by a vote of Is to 5,
and the ante-election pledge to
the liquor interests of the Re-
publican campaign managers was
fulfilled.
The brewerymen and kindred
interests put up $4,000 to help
elect the Republican ticket in

MRS. ROOSEYELT'S IN HISTOY
The Nation Will Honor Her
rs ''The Woman i'm the
Background"

Mrs. Roosevelt, as "The womsn
in the Background" is sketched by
Mabel Potter Dagget in the March
Delineator, and the clever character
study brings forcibly to the public
mind the fact that the woman who
has been the "6rst lady of the
land" for seven years has been from
first to last the least conspicuous
figure in the presidents family.
Her portrait has been done IN oil
by Chartran. The frank mouth is
smiling. But i'll the gray eyes is
an inscrutable expression of reserve.
So future generations will see her,
says Mrs. Daggett. This is the
picture painted at the order of the
French government and presented
TO the American people. Once she
said: "a woman's name should
appear in print but twice-when she
is married and when she is buried. "
Then she stepped within the thrcs.
hold and closed the door of her
house. 1t happened to be the White
House.
Living side by side with the most.
written-of man of his time, she has
yet quietly Withdrawn within the
shadow of his luminous personality.
The libraries are crowded with vol.
umes that repeat his name-you
will search them long Tor the merest
mention Of hers; for, as his biog-
raphers have come and gone, in
variably they have been met with
one condition. Even as they sharp
ened their pencils they have looked
up from their note books to hear a
soft voice say firmly: Gentlemen,
only with this understanding are
you given access to the data about
the president-you must leave me
out" This is the reason the world
has heard so little of the real Mrs.
Roosevelt. And she will step out
into history as one Of the least
known of the women who have
reigned there. In her passing we
write her down as the woman in the
background.

FORMER GREAT FLOOD
Remarkable Story Told BY
Rev. SpurlOck of This
County.

Rev. Burwe!l Spurlock, who
vas probably the ablest minister
of the Gospel in this state during
his day, but who died several
years ago in Wayne county, once
told the writer an interesting
story of q flood which had swept
down the Ohio river at some time,
probably more than an hundred
years ago.
He stated that when his father
came to this section he settled at
Green Bottom, eighteen miles
above this city. on the Ohio river.
He erected his cabin on the bank
of the river near where the resi-
dsnce of the late Dr.. VIM. Jenk-
ins stands, q short distance from
a small stream known as Lower
Pond Gut. He eaid this was
about 1890, and he was quite a
small boy. There. were some
huge elm trees stsAding in the
bottom and thirty feet from the
ground large drift log was lodg-
ed in the big branches of these
trees. 1t was his opinion that
there had been flood that wonld
exceed anything known by prob
abb 20 feet. His theory was
that what Is known as Burk's gar
den in Tazwe!l county, Va, had
once been vast INLAND lake aud
by some cause it's walls had given
way and it's waters had rushed
out into the New River thence
down the Kanawha and Ohio
rivers sweeping everything be-
fore it. This must have occurred
prior to 1740 as he said the old
est people living at the time of
his boyhood had heard nothing
about such q thing. He stated
that there could be no doubt but
what the large log was lodged as
above stated, by It's being foated
in among the branches by high
water.

Everything was a Three.

George L. Nevins, a prosperous re-
tail drug merchant of Jersey Shore,
Pa, is spending few days in Phila-
delphia on the way home from Allan
tic City. He seems to have been pur-
sued by a mo. 3 hoodoo" since he left
home.
So many times did the figure "3''
bob up in the course of his vacation
trip that Nevins could not help TAX
ing notice
Leaving home, he travelled in Pull
man 103. The train was drawn by
engine 223. The room to which he
was assigned in a Philadelphia hotel
was 23. The next day he went to At
lantic City in car 90.
His hotel room at the resort was
143. Sunday he went to ball game
and his rain check was 1888. He re-
turned to Philadelphia on the same
car that carried him sto the resort
IS. At the hotel here he was assigned
to room No. 49,.
That was the last straw. Nevins
kicked on the real "hoodoo" number.
He is not exactly superstitious. but
says he has had enough threes for
while. He had a good time, how
ever,
