Senator kirkpatrick has received

Senator kirkpatrick has received a
number of protests against the school
bill, but he finds that nearly all have
come from those who have an in
terest in the keeping of the school
funds rather than an interest in the
schools themselves. 1t Is currently re-
ported that the school treasurers have
formed an organization and with the
small banks that are interested in hay-
ing the school funds kept so they can
be had without paying interest will
send strong lobby here to fight the
school bill.

Incidental to the general movement
to fix up the Iowa laws to the best
advantage, for protecting honorable
competition it is stated here that the
law which was passed few, years
ago to punish unfair competition in
the oil business has had salutary eff
feet and the independents claim that
there is not near the difficulty in keep
ing up business that formerly was
found. In other years rate cutting
was very common avowed1y for the
purpose of destroying competition, and
this is said now to be somewhat rare.

II. x. Migaels, who has been spend
turned to this city last evening. Mr.
Mighcls during the past month has
been over considerable part OF the

the liy,iest and presents the best

score of new hoists have gone up and
are lifting ore, either mill rock OF

During the year four mills have
been built and are running, while

at the least an additional twelve

ore, this is good news to the inter
ested parties. This matter will be
signed up as soon as the parties OF
both sides can meet ana fix the
terms. 1t is now proposed to in

on just what hoist and compressor is
TO be used and only the best will be
installed. This work will be under
taken shortly.
"One Of the most encouraging fca-
lures OF the work on the property is
the fact that the main shaft is pan
ming well in free gold. This shaft
is now down we'll past the TWO hund-
red mark and during the past ten
days higher values in gold nave been
coming in. This vein is not the
ledge that is producing the shipping

as depth is attained.
