THE BULLETINS BAILY STORY
IN TOUGH WITH NATURE.

| ton they discovered only private property, made up of wet and clayey soil and two muddy roads of doubt full consistency. The trees shook naked branches at them in the brisk wind and the truck farms rolled away to discouraging distances in every di- rection.
 T don't believe there's a violet with in ten miles of here" declared Mrs. Banning. I'm getting hungry. Where do you suppose we could get cup of coffee ?"
 Banning looked at the stores and his spirits fell Tn Park Highlands peo- pie are supposed to eat their meals at home, and the business section was composed of a grocery and market, a cleaning establishment, a hardware store and a news stand However, as he glanced contritely at his wife, help loomed up suddenly in the distance. Around a curve came on interurban trolley car. speeding toward them.
 Here we are!" exclaimed Banning. 'We'll take this car and go up north to Kenosha or Racine or some where"
 "Is your railroad pass good on this liner" demanded his wife.
 She gathered up her skirts and pre- pared to board the big car without waiting for his answer. Banning pro- duced money for the fares and then settled back into the warm cushions contentedly. It was chilly on the plat form at Park Highlands and the sheit- CT of the flying trolley car was agree able. Besides, 1t was headed for a city where food was procurable.
 T suppose this runs to the violet f1elds?" suggested Mrs. Banning.
 I'm not so anxious about the vio- lets now" admitted Banning, "but i'm really glad that we've got away from town for a day."

CARELESS OBSERVERS.

The attempt at Passaic, N. J., on the part of politicians to condemn the work of the voting machine in the Sec ond district of the Third ward failed. When the machine was opened by or der of the court 1t was found to be exactly opposite from what those prej- udiced against 1t claimed. and while they declared 1t registered IFS No and 1O5 Yes, a photograph of the machine shows that 1t registered IFS Yes and 105 No.
 Commenting upon this, the Newark News says: The camera will not lie. It tells a truthful story that cannot be refuted by even the most skilful and wilful nisrepresentations of the op- .ponents of the voting machine"
 There is more the matter with the enemies of the voting machines thar with the machines themselves; and those who would lie about them would make the machines lie if they had ths genius to. The voting machine has made the old political count primitive and slow and unreliable.

EAR FROM sILENcEn.

A press despatch from Manchester, N. H., recites that a reduction in the minimum rate charged by the Ameri- can Express company for carrying small packages within New Hamp- shire has been ordered by the rail- road commissioners of that state, in response to a petition presented by the New Hampshire board of trade and a number of subordinate bodies. "The rate is ordered reduced, on and after June first next, from 25 cents to 15 cents. the rate which prevailed up to two years ago" From this 1t will be perceived that the company has been forced to grant what it was compelled to do in Massachusetts, save that dn our own state the pub lie protest against an increase in schedules was not successful until after company determination to en- force the latter had been vigorously conbatted. The swollen prices, we may add, were standing argument in favor of the establishment of a parcels post As for that matter, the lesser rate does not silence the de- mand.-Salem (Mass.) News.
 lL lS HUI llilprOpdDle tHdl lHiS cudnSe will soon come to Connecticut. There is no real reason why 25 cents should be the minimum charge unless the ob- ject Is to prohibit the smaller parcels. If the price was less the express would be preferred to the postoff1ce when it comes to the matter of handling. The success of a parcels post means that the express companies will cheapen their rates and still do a big and prof table business. The price for carrying small parcels Is now too high.

 The theory of L. T. Cooper is based upon oommon-sense reasoning. When asked recently why his medicine Is so successful, he replied: My New Dis covery Is successful because it cor rects the stomach. My theory Is that few can be sick if the digestive appar- atus is working properly. It natur- ally follows that few can be well with a poor digestion. I know from ex- perience that most of the tired, half sick people that are so common now a-days have half-sick stomachs.

Examine Your Information.

Is there any influence at work, spreading bad news, largely misinfor- nation, about voting machines? It seems to be the case in New Jersey
 The Republican corrested the Hart ford Courant the other day on the Passaic. N. J.. case, where the voting machine certainly came out with a feather in it's cap. The Courant's au- thority was the Newark, N. J., Star, which is printed eight miles from the scene of battle, but had apparently gotten hold of the choicest bundle of transformation which it has been our privilege to inspect for some time. Now it' seems that although the Passaic county newspapers are all agreed as to the facts and are commenting the voting machine, various other news
 papers thereaboUts are repeating the errors made by the Newark Star. They are all making the statement that the machine reversed the figures as though the machine could reverse the figures and later correct itself In view of this tendency it will be well for state newspapers which are considering the liability of voting machines to error to examine their information very oare-

The PiIarlms.

Through the efforts of pr. William P. Griffis several tablets commemorate ing the 300th anniversary of the Pil- grins' landing in Holland will be un- yelled in July. The student of naticn- al origins other than English may dwell with profit upon the story of the Dutch in America, the three centuries likewise celebrated this year in New York's exercises commemorating Hud- sons exploration of the river bearing his name. Four of the original thir- teen states were settled from the Neth- erlands, and, happily for us, the pio- Deers resisted all English efforts to fasten upon them church of state. How loyal their descendants were to the Continental congress. and how large is our inheritance from Dutch law, order, freedom, and culture, a majority absorbed in the relative i'm portance of Puritan and Chevalier do not realize.--Boston Record.

WHAT THE PAPERS SAY.
Celebrating the Fourth.

The celebration of the city's one hundred and twenty-f1fth anniversary having been killed, presumably it Is useless to advocate a sane celebration of the Fourth of July. We have fears that a lurking "Kibosh" may be in waiting to jump on the suggestion. Perhaps someone might perpetrate the oft repeated inquiry ss to who started the plan anyway. Then again some patriotic citizen might be tempted to Inquire what there was to celebrate. But being in a celebrating mood, we dare to suggest that Middletown might set the pace in Connecticut for a safe and sane celebration of Independence 0ay-NIiddletoWn Sun

FLAG DAY.

Flag Day Is the national day of June which all take an interest in. It is not call from work, but a call to honor the emblem which in times of peace and peril should ever be an in- spiration to all whom 1t protects.
 This special day has the support of many patriotic societies, and deserves well of the public. The American Flag association has issued an address which calls attention to the fact that "the Stars and Stripes, within the re- cent past, have come to possess new beauty for friendly eyes and new ter TOT for the foes of liberty" and hence this suggestion is most apropos: 'We respectfully appeal to the governors of all the states of our land and to the mayors of every American city to her aid the coming and celebration of Flag Day. June IA, 1909. by proclamation; we call upon every public officer, every teacher of the youth of our land. the editors of all newspapers, the daily in- structors of youth, to call public at
 nton, to arouse enthusiasm and to rovde for public exercises and gen.
 ai celebration of the day" And that

 soldiers, sailors, educators and

At Kenosha they disembarked and Banning led the way to a restaurant which looked passable from without, but which failed to live up to the con- tract The interurban railroad only skirted the town, they discovered, and 1t was necessary to take a cross-town line to reach civilization. Careful in- quiry developed the information that this line operated three cars an hour and 1t was the part of wisdom for the visitor to keep one eye on his watch in order to be certain of makinc con- nections with the returning car to Park Highlands. The spring shower which had been hanging over their heads all day began to descend as they viewed the marvels of Kenosha, and Banning triumphantly unfurled his umbrella.
 Isn't it time to take that car back to where we get the interurban?" de- manded his wife presently.
 we have ten minutes yet" said Banning, but we'd better stay here where 1t starts. because the cars are not labeled and we might get the wrong one"
 "Good!" said his wife. Meanwhile. if you see any violets blooming in the street just let me know"
 This was Earnings cue to maintain Q discreet silence, which he did while they rode back to the junction. When they climbed into the interurban for the dash back to Park Highlands the conductor accepted Earnings return coupons and kept his hand extended

OPERATIONS RESUMED
AT YUMA PROPERTY

Eureka March 1.-THE Zuma Mining
company's property, situated in East Tin
tic south of the Iron King and east OF the
Crown Point which has remained idle
since the recent depression in the money
markets. started up today. II. G Don
Carlos, manager of the Telluride Power
company. went over to the property today
and fixed matters so that the Juice is
now on and from the fifty-foot mark sink
ing will commence and will be steadily
prosecuted until the 300-foot level will be
reached It is then the intention of the
company to drift to the east and west to
crosscut the two different bodies OF ore
that traverse the property from north 10
SOUTH Mining men who have examined
the property are of the opinion that this
company has fine opportunity to make
a mine and that the groupings that appear
close to the old Grand Eastern vein IN
dOubtedIv indicate that it will be on this
vein that the Yuma will get the ore.
The Yuma is perhaps one of the best
equipped properties on the east slope Of
the range A fine shafthouse was built,
which included the compressor room and
the blacksmith shop. They then installed
q 50-horse-power hoist and a fOur-drill
COMPRESSOR which will be run by electric
itv rails tirnbers, coal and in fact every
necessary tool was placed on the ground
when the present shaft was only down
fifty feet
The Yuma is incorporated for 100000
shares at the par value of 81 and f. largely
held by local people. Rasmus Nelson will
have charge of the work and will have a
force of about eight or ten men under
him. There are four patented claims and
two unpatented claims in this property.

five are patented and ten are in course
of patenting- The mines are developed
by 300 feet of shafts, 400 feet of wines
400 feet of raises and 600 feet of cross
cuts, and it is estimated that there are
loo tons of ore in sight The mines are
equipped with steam and gasoline hoist
ing plants, good buildings and all neces-
sary equipment. and the records of pro-
ductiOn in the past credit the properties
with Sl30G00 net. The ore is fead-silver
in character and the Consolidated work
tngs are so opened up that il will not
take long TO place the properties on a
highly productive basis.

STRIKE OF MUCH RICHNESS
Gold Ore Running High in the ThOus-
ands Uncovered at Goldfield
by the Consolidated.
Especial to The Herald)


Gold6eId, New, March 17-Complete con-
firmation is given by Manager Mackenzie
of the Consolidated company to reports of
a gigantic strike just north of the Com
bination mill in hitherto unexpected
ground. Secretary Howe said tonight;
1T is true a discovery of exceeding rich
of Combination No. 1 claim in virgin
ground. and the vein trends directly to-
ward the old Kaifus lease on the Mona wk.
with 200 feet of UNEMPLOYED territory inter
vening.
THE ore body is now opened up at the
fourth, fifth and sixth levels with an up
raise forty feet from the fourth level still
in ore. No Stopping has been done. but
solely in development values of S3e0,VoO
have been extracted in the past fourteen
days and ore exposed is valued at over 81
100000. The center streak assays high in
the thousands and the vein in places is
thirty feet wide
Manager Mackenzie declares this strike
will not only rank with the famous Hayes
Monnette and other notable discoveries,
but from present indications may eclipse
them all.
Curiously enough, the ore resembles that
of the Hayes-Monnette and is unlike the
general Combination product. The new
mill is now running to nearly full capac-
ity. having an average treatment for the
past week of 600 tons daily.
Manager Ryan and engineers OF the Io-
uopah & Tidewater railroad are here and
tomorrow begin the preliminary survey of
the Goldfield-Eiy railroad. which viii al
ford a direct connection with Salt Lake
from Goldfield and TOnopah. Work Will
be rushed from both ends of the proposed
road and Manager Ryan says the road
will be in operation before the end of the
