The Men Who Lose Money in Mines.

The men who lose money in mines belong in the main to two classes. First, the class which watches stock market quotations and believes that stock market quotations give an accur- ate line upon the value of the stock. We are inclined to think that this is the largest class. There were thou sands of people who bought the stocks of Goldtield and Tonopah prospects at high prices in the two or three years preceding 1907. They made money out of those which actually developed bod ies of commercial ore, but they lost on those that did not. The thing that at tracted them primarily to these issues was the active open market. They bought the stocks, not on account of developed ore, but on account of the possibilities which they believed those stocks had of selling higher if the com panies should strike ore. In other words, they took a gamble and lost. The fact that the stocks had an active market is what attracted them.

 This city has been the Mecca of an unusual, large number of mining in- vestors during the past few days. Most of the representatives of capital hill from Kansas City, Mo, Indepen- dence, Kan, Duluth, Minneapolis, Cincinnati, New York, and Los Angeles. A wave of returning pros perity in the East and central West has resulted in renewed interest in the virgin gold. silver and copper mines of Sonora, and all the districts in the big state are reached over the Nacozari railroad running south from this city, the hotels have been crowded with the agents of big syndicates on their way into the districts of Mocte- zuma, Arizpe, Fl Tigre, La Caridad, Cananea and the nearer mines in the vicinity of Nacozari and Fonteras.
 The result of this invasion is that a number of mining brokers in a small way have gone south to Nacoz- ari especially, and there are gath ering up the prospects first hand from the men who range the hills with a burro outfit and a pick, which they are offering to the agents coming into the field. There is wide interest stir red up in the new gold strike made ek T Tk,.l several gold lodges have been staked between Moctezuma and the Chihuahua border.
 The shelter at Toledo, built two years ago, but never operated, be- cause of lack of transportation facil- ities, is soperating, the Southern Pacific having finished its line to Tonichi, up the Yaqui river, and this will bring into activity many otherwise unprOtit- able mines in the lower end of the Moctezuma district and in Sahuaripa.
 The indications are that this year will see the transfer of more mining properties in Sonora than were ever before recorded in the mining history of the state. The influx of capital has been natural interest, without the stimulus of any advertisement, as it is a fact that there is not company out of this city aoated.
 During the past few days repre- sentatives of the Minneapolis Cop per company have been down at the mines in the Moctezuma district; syndicate men from Cinn ;inatti, Du- luth, Indedendence and Kansas City have been in the field looking at properties below Nacozari and in the lower Cananea region; New York agents have been scouting for any thing that looks worth the trouble of a thorough report, while Los Angeles men come and go every day.
 The completion of the fine wagon road from Calabazas to the Antigua mine not long ago purchased by Henry C. Carr for New York inter- ests, has brought into profitable range several good mines east of the Antigua, Last Chance, Texas and New York, in the Carr group.
 Several claims in groups just north of the Nacozari camp have recently been opened up to expose the lodges and some of the properties will en- ter the shipping list inside of a month. One of these is shipping ore to the Douglas shelter of the Copper Queen on account of its valuable huxing qualities. International.

BILLY, BRINDLE BULLDOG.
MADE A STAR WITNESS
Convinced Judge of His Age in Puppy
Fashion.

Burlington,N. j., Aug. 13-Billy, &
thoroughbred brindle bulldog, owned
by the wife of DR.. Eli G. Jones, broke
up police court, caused a mad dog
scare and presented such an argu-
ment as to his ownership that Magis-
trate Smith refused to hear opposing
lawyers this morning.
John Mclaughlin of East Burling-
ton said he owned the dog and that it
was six years old. Mrs. Jones' proof
included pedigree of a one-year-oIl
dog. Experts failed to agree as to the
dogs age.
Billy was brought into court, and
Magistrate Smith spoke a coaxing
word. Billy broke his leash and with
joyful barks bounded to the top of the
Magistrates desk, scattering court
papers. His muddy paws found the
Magistrates immaculate shirt front.
Spectators fled and Billy followed
one. The confusion started a mad
dog panic. Two constables dragged
the dog back to the courtroom door.
Don't bring that dog in near
again" shouted the Magistrate 'eThe
case is dismissed. Mrs. Jones says the
dog is a year old pup. The Court asks
no further argument to prove it,

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way To cure deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
infamed condition of the mucous lin
ing of the Euctachian Tube. When
this tube is inflamed you have a rumb-
ling sound or imperfect hearing, and
when it is entirely closed. Deafness
is the rebuilt, and unless the infiam-
nation can be taken out and this tube
restored to its normal condition, hear
ing will be destroyed forever; nine
cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh,
which is nothing but an infiamed con-
dition of the mucous surfaces.

I'm making this announcement l feel
that it is appropriate for me to say
that my service for seven years in
both branches of the Georgia legisla-
ture, during which time many of the
present laws relating to banks and
banking were enacted, and my service
at the same time on the house COM
mittee on banks and banking, by
which these laws were considered has
given me clear insight into the Geor-
gia laws concerning banking and f.
nance
"In addition to the foregoing expe-
rience, | have been. for fifteen years,
president of the Elberton Loan and
Savings Bank, in which capacity | may
| say | have gained wide political ex-
lperience concerning the operation of
these laws; and, as a result of which
| am in position to recommend certain
| improvements in the present laws
which will better safeguard the inter-
ests of the depositors in Georgia S
state banks.
"If elected TO this important posi-
ton, / shall give my every effort to
the faithful discharge Of its duties, to
assist me in which / shall secure the
services Of trained, expert and capa-

strong race in Sumter county. witt
the issue as to whether he or Mr.
e. B. Hernady will carry the county
a matter that will not be determined

Commissioner Gray made an exceed
ingly favorable impression on his
recent visit to Americas, when he met
a number of business men and other

Mr.. Gray, as is generally known. is

OF a railroad commissioner. He has
studied railroad matters, from a prac-
teal standpoint, for over twenty
years, and is an expert on rates, ana

mess conditions throughout the state.
He las been making a tour of the
state, meeting citizens at various
points, and although he is making the
campaign for himself alone the out
look seems to be very much in his
favor.
Mr.. Hornady has number of warm
friends who are working vigorously
for him in Sumter and adjacent coun-
ties. He is one of the best known
drummers of this section and has an
active support from many of the fra
ternity, as we'll as from various other
sources. His friends express conf
dence that he will make a brilliant rna

THE TWO TOMS OF
THE TURBULENT TENTH
Columbus Enquirer-Sun.)

(COuumbus Enquirer-Sun.)
Tom Hardwick and Tom Watson
have succeeded in stirring up
more strife in the Tenth district than
has been stirred up in all the other
districts in the state combined. They
are saying some pretty rough things
about eacl other and each of them
seems to believe that what he says
about the other is true beyond ques-
ton. The following quotations are
taken from Aecent utterances by
them:
BY Mr.. Watson: IF Mr.. HardwicI
denies these charges, | Will put
stripes on his back and send to the
penftentiary for a term of not less
than three years, where he belongs,
instead of in congress"
BY Mr.. Hardwick IF Mr.. Watson
viii swear to these charges, | VIII
put stripes on his back, shacRies on
his legs and have him at work on
the roads of McDdfie county, where
he belongs"
In view of the situation in the
Tenth we are almost tempted to hope
that each will be able to prove what
he has charged against the other
SO that the district will be rid OF two
very disturbing elements.
