|NGRAT|TUDE OF MAN

In 1848 the discovery of gold in Cali fornia peopled the Pacific coast with thousands of adventurers-all looking for the best of it. Near where gold
 was first discovered lived man named Sutter, who was open-handed and good hearted. He gave the newcomer land and food and everything he had, be- cause he was simple and had plenty. In q few years he was landless, and he passed his old age in want back in Pennsylvania. Sixty years have passed since then. In 1908, hundreds of ad- venturers-all looking for the best of it came to Prince Rupert, where lived 0 man who was open-handed to the new corners, for they had no place on which to put their feet. He had mineral claim, on which he had built cabin, which overlooked the finest harbor on the Pacific coast. The adventurers, men and women, were given ground on

which to build abiding places. free and without cost. Not content with this generous treatment, these udventtlrers have repeatedly tried to close in the old pioneer's cabin, so that he could no longer have s view of the harbor. Dis gusted Ut their selfishness and lack of gratitude, he left Prince Rupert on Thursday, declaring that he wanted never again to see the face of man or woman in Prince Rupert. h does not pay to be good-hearted and open-handed for those who arc die as did Sutter of the early California days. Better be selfish and greedy and grasping and mean, and die with certainty of hay ing long funeral procession behind your remains when they are wheeled to to the grave.-Empire.

Alberta True to
 the Workingman

Calgary, E. C., Feb. 21.-That the Alberta government will stand by the workingmen is the attitude taken by legislators of the province. The work mans compensation act which went into force January last, will not be re- pealed. This act calls upon the en- ployer to insure the lives of their work men to the extent of $15C0.
 The first definite action taken in pro- test against the act took the form of delegation of about 30 employers to the government. They did not mince mat ters, but bluntly demanded the repeal of the bill which has placed Alberta in the front rank as regards advanced leg islation in the interests of workingmen. They protested that the bill gave the workingman two chances to one under the old law for getting compensation from his employer.
 Another complaint was that it so in- creased the responsibility of the en- ployer that he was liable to compensa- tion in case of accident, whether or not the employees accident or death was caused by his own negligence.
 W. H. Clark, & lumber dealer of prominence, suggested that the govern ment might undertake the insurance If the employers continued to experience difficulty in insuring their employees.
 With regard to this suggestion, some encouragement was given the ceputa- tion, but the bill as 8 whole bill stand.

Rampant, March 3.--Prospect- ors. miners and claim owners on Quail creek are making prepara- tions for ground sluicing during the coming summer, and reports from the creek show that every body is hopeful for good returns if we only have wet summer.
 Prospectors along Gunnison and Troublesomecreek are being bothered with water. Holes that have been bedrocked show good prospects, but so far no defined paystreak has been uncovered. Drifting is almost impossible owing to unfrozen ground, but the boys are not discouraged.
 HUNTER CHEEK
 Johnson, on Dawson, tribu- tary of Hunter, is doing we'll, and and his pay holds out good. He is now we'll in under Idaho bar being in about 19O feet, and what he calls his pay dump surely looks good, and one would think he was trying to shift Idaho bar.
 Swanson, on 23-a., Is getting ready for summer work and pros; pecting.
 Hison, on 24.a., is taking out a dump of low-grade pay, and pre- pairing for summer work.
 Bevier, on 16-a., has the pay, but has been laid up for the last ten days with 8 severe cold.
 Powell, on 11-a., has pay, but has come to town to see the doc, tor as he, too, is suffering from a cold.
 Clemens & Campbell, on 3a. !,  have been laid up for about ten days on account of sickness. They have good pay. Clemens claims four feet of 10-cent dirt in sight, and says Campbell has it very near as good.
 LITTLE MINooK CREEK
 Detrick and partner, on Ga. , have out big pay dump, some of their pay going as good as a dollar per bucket.
 Summers, Clinic & Nelson, still have good pay and are ad- ding to their dumps about 2OO

buckets daily. They claim they will do better on 8-a. this winter than has been done there for the past. four years.
 Lindebloom, on the lower end of 5 and upper end of 4,a., has good pay and will do we'll this winter from his lay. Even at this early date he is asking for an extension of his lay.
 Sundborg & Kidding, on 3-a., are drifting toward the right limit bench, and are in good pay. <Cronk & Woods (Sr.), on the same ground, and only a few feet from the pay on Sundborg's ground, are sinking and expected to reach bedrock and pay last Saturday.
 Evans and partner, on 2-a., are doing we'll, being in pay, and having out good sized dump.
 Frank & Graham, on la, have good pay and are piling up a good pay dump. While they did not reach their pay until late, yet they say they will be prepared to measure dumps with anyone on the creek by May 1.
 LITTLE MINooK JR.
 Antonson is sinking on 26-a. , but is not to bedrock yet. He has given up work on 24-a. on account of sale of the ground.
 The new owners of all the ground from A a. to 17-a. inclu- sive, are sinking holes to define the width of their pay for sum- mer work.
 Hoos1ER CREEK
 Swanson & Ott, on IF a., have reached bedrock in four holes, and nothing, not even a prospect, was found. They hope for bet ter luck in the remaining fou r holes.
 BIG MINOOK CREEK Barnett, on la, Is doing we'll. He expects to have out all the pay dirt on his dump that he can rock up during the summer, as he is too far away from water, and his lay is too short to permit his going to the expense o1

Swanson 6 Dickson are stay ing with Chapman. It is gener- ally believed in town that they have all kinds of good pay there, as they only come to town for grub, hurry right back, and do no talking while here.
 Iverson & Cool, on bench of Big Minook, are still sinking. The latest news of them was that they had not yet reached bed rock.
 Ledger & Bowen, on Little Ell dorado, got bedrock and pros poets, then drifted @ short dis tance but got no pay. We hear Ledger quit, but Bowen was not satisfied, and is still working. Doffinmyer and partners, on the bench between Little Minook Jr. and Hoosier creeks, are still at work. They reached bedrock in one hole, got prospects, staked and recorded, and have started another hole. It must look good to them.
 Strum, on the fraction between la. and discovery claims, Hunter creek, reached bedrock and got very good prospects. He is now drifting.
 Dunn & Staples, on Aloho creek, had not reached bedrock when we last heard from them. Charley Spicer, of Eureka creek, is in town, and as soon as he arrived he got so many invita- tions to dances and dinners that he had to shed those old overalls and trest himself to a new outfit. , When he showed up all rigged out some of our citizens wanted to know who the dude was. Char ley says Spicer Sr. is on his way in by way of Valdez.

 MT. Boulter, assistant superin- tendent of schools of this district, was in town for a couple of days this week, and while here ar ranged for the installation of q new bell on the schoolhouse. It is certainly 8 needed improve ment.
 Herman Rosberg and Henry Young, from Eureka, came over to attend the hard times dance on the 22nd, and on the 24th another dance was given their honor. Charley Spicer was also included in this.
 The hard times dance came off according to schedule, and if a stranger had dropped in during the evening he would surely have thought we were having hard times for fair. Everybody had a good time.

 SLATE CREEK
 Pike, on discovery and 3-b., has not been in town for a month. Rumor says he is too busy piling up a pay dump to come to town, and, besides, he don't want his sourdough to freeze during cold snaps. It is wondered if he still wraps up the lard pail in a blanket when the thermometer gets to 30 below.

Capitalists from all over the country are looking toward s and are wondering if we are gO ing to take proper advantage of our wonderful natural resources and if we do not they are going to put their money in here where the chances of increasing are a hundred fold. Of course we do not care to be thought of as dog in the manager but by mak ing show at developing we will never lack for capital to con- plete whatever enterprise we may care to start, and by so do ing we not only get the advan- tage of being the promoters but the capital too gets fair profit. Carlisle already has the reputa tion of doing things and all that is necessary to get capital is to start something and the capital is there ready to be invested. We have the creameries new canning factory and building new rice mill which goes to show that there is something doing in business way, mot to say any thing about the many new resi- dences and business blocks that have been erected here in the past two years. We cannot afford to stop yet but go on and on making improvements. What will be next?

The canning factory is read.

The canning factory is ready to run today were there any tomatoes to work on. The plant was recently put in first class condition and all necessary re- pairs made and with plenty of ms and fuel on hand it will only be matter of a day or two to put the machinery to running when the tomatoes are ready to can. Those of you who have not signed your contract should do so at once for the company is ready to handle all they can get this year and that too W hen they are ready to work on.
The Carlisle independent., 1909-03-04

The meeting held last Thurs day afternoon resulted in much good for the prospective tomato growers this year. It was de cided that all would plant as near as possible and by this means bring the first crop to the fac tory at about the same time, which will be benefit to the growers as well as the company. The grower will not lose any of his crop while the factory will not have to shut down on ac- count of lack of tomatoes.

BALD HEADS NOT WANTED Badness Is Too Generally Considered a
 Sign of Advanced Age.

A bald headed person does not have an equal chance with one blessed with a healthy head of hair, because badness is too generally accepted as an indication of age. Many large corporations have estab- lished an age limit, and refuse to take men over s years of age as new employees.

We have a remedy that we positively guarantee to grow hair on any head, unless the roots of the hair are entirely dead, their follicles closed, and the scalp has be- come glazed and shiny. We want people to try this remedy at our risk, with the dis tinct understanding that unless it does exactly what we claim it will, and gives satisfaction in every respect, we shall make no charge for the remedy used during the trial a We know exactly what we are talking about, and with this offer back of our state ments no one should scoff, doubt our word or hesitate to put our remedy to an actual test.
 We want everyone who is suffering from any scalp or hair trouble, dandruff, failing hair or badness to try our Rexall ''o3" Hair Tonic. We want them to use it reg ularly say until three bottles have been used and it it does not eradicate dan druff, cleanse and refresh the scalp, tighten the hair in its roots, and grow new hair, we will return every cent paid us for the remedy for the mere asking. There is no formality expected, and we exact no obli- gation from the user whatever.
 We are established right here and make this offer with full understanding that our business success entirely depends upon the sort of treatment we accord our GUS. toners, and we would not dare make the above offer unless we were positively cer- tain that we could substantiate it in every particular, Two sizes, So cents and sI.oo.

The White Pine news. [volume] (Ely, Nev.) 1906-1910, 1909-08-17
Standing of the clubs:

From the standpoint of amateur
ball, Sundays game between Ely and
the Nevada Northern teams, and the
third OF the Steptoe Valley League
series, was a good one. The crowd
was discouragingly small. The boys
are entitled to more encouragement
from the fans of the district. 1t was
anybody's game up to the last, and
while devoid of sensational features,
the score was close enough to make
the contest interesting.
Ely put up a first class article of
ball, but was outclassed in the box.
Worthington, the college twirler,
who did things to the Shelter bunch
big Lacquer, but he weakened in the
fourth and was as wild as a hawk.
He retired in favor of Conner in the
fifth. Before Connie could get
steadied down, the damage had been
done.
Waits was at his best, allowing
only seven hits and these scattered.
His stick work, too, had some class
to it, and he is credited with a big
home run and a two Dagger. Waits
and Fulmer make a battery that is
hard to beat in small burgs- The
whole Railroad team played better
ball than on it's previous appearance
and although credited with some
bum errors, the stick work more
than made Up for it.
The Railroaders' winning the
game placed all teams even, and now
The fight will be for first place in
the percentage column. Next SUN
day it will be the SmeIter and Ely
here, and every loyal fan should be
there to root for his favorite. THE
Smelter boys feel that they have at
last broken the ffoodo that has been
following them all season and they
