 The money voted yesterday is for the purpose of erecting an addition to the north side school building on ac- count of the increasing enrolment of school children.
 The election board was made up as follows: r. A. Williams. inspector; Guy Jones and Bert Jones, clerks. and D. $. Lewis and Fred Maier. judges. and Philip Coleman. marshal.

AN OPTION On [. O. ].
 CLAIMS IN YUMA co.
The Ore Low Grade But Exists in
 Abundance.

William ]. Trahey of this place yes terday closed negotiations with the owners of the nine claims known as the C. O. D. property in Yuma county and in the Alamo district in the Eagle Tail mountains about thirty miles south of Salome. whereby he sucured an option and will within the near future place the proposition before a number of friends in New York of which place he was resident before coming to this place
 The C. O. D. property lies about nine miles to the east of the North Star mine which during the past year has continued to keep itself in the eyes of the mining world. However Mir Trahey is not in the least relying on the reputation of the North Star to assist him in the placing of ms claims in the hands of capitalists. He has been engaged in mining operations too long time to consider a thing of that kind. His opinion of the prop erty has been gained through care ful inspection of the prospect and in this he has not depended upon his own judgment but has had the eXpe TltnGe bl StdSpltu tllS bp Sub- stantiate his belief.
 According to MT Trahey. the C. O. D. claims are in country that is easy of access. some very important things to be considered in mining prOposi- tions
 It is not the intent or purpose to sell stock or to peddle shares in the concern but to start and remain a close corporation and develop the property. one of the real obstacles or perhaps what is better. one of the real problems. is that in order to get at the ore d shaft uf three hundred feet will have to he sunk at the outset IL is a proposition which will call for considerable investment at the begin ming but in the opinion of Mir. Trahey it has all the indications of being producer.
 The ore is of low grade but in abun dance.

Champ Clark is all right and
ought to be speaker of the next

with fellow democratic representa-
tives before outlining any plans
for future work. Mr. Clark says
all the democrats, of both houses,
in the 62nd congress will have to
get together and map opt a pro-
gram. That sounds democratic

There is a reason why he can do this.
Cottolene is purer and more wholesome

which keep it fresh indefinitely.

9 generator Of 100 3. r, capacity
therein. We got this in shape
and started it Nov 9th. and our
patrons viii recall that from then
until Nov 18th, we gave the most
satisfactory lights we had supplied
since the flood. On the 18th. inst
this generator burned out every
one of the fixed coils, which of
course put us out of commission
at this plant until new coils could
be COTTON from the factory. We
then started up the new Tur-
bme plant, which we will be
compelled to use until these new
fixed coils arrive, which we think
will be by Monday the 18th inst,
as letter this morning from build
ers say they Ear ship in very short
time after they receive the sample
coil, which we sent them by ex-
press last Saturday. They will
ship the new coils by express and
five hours after we receive them,
our patrons will be getting the
same beautiful lights they receiv-
ed from the 9th inst up to the
burning out of our machinery.
We feel that we have already
trespassed on your good will in
writing at this length, so will not
undertake to detail the various
troubles we have had, in connec.
ton with coal supply and delays
IN shipment and Transporting our
coal and the numerous little
things that interrupt service and
annoy our patrons and worry us
more then we can tell. We have
done everything in the power of
man to overcome the difficulties
we have been called upon to face.
We have bought coal at $500 a
ton to run day light service which
brings us a revenue of So a day
and it takes two tons of coal to
run a day.
In case some one might wish to
know why the 16O Horse Power
genrator burned out, while carry
ing a load Of less than 100 b. P,
we will explain that our old en-
CINE, altho of sufficient size was
not quite up to requirements in
speed and this of course gave low
speed on the generator. This low
speed required an excess of excit-
er current to make up this deficien
cy and this. caused undue heating
of the fixed coils, so that he insu-
lation became impaired and finally
broke down. As it will be operat-
ed in future, this will not be the
case as we are now equipped to
operate at slightly above required
speed.
w have spared neither effort
nor money to keep things going
and we feel sure that most of Our
patrons, when all the facts as
above are laid before them, will be
fair minded enough to make al
lowances fer the short coming In
our service and bear with us just
a little longer until we can get
things in shape. We do not hest
tate a minute to say that our new.
plans, both water power and
steam will be as fine as money can
buy and our service therefrom
shall be up to all reasonable re-
quirements.

? M. OATES TALKS TO PEG
PIE OF HENDERSoNVILLE
Editor Herald:

EQlGOE AAOA0AA
We wish to make somewhat
extended statement through the
Herald to our friends and patrons,
as we know VIC have tried their
patience most sorely and feel that
O. full explanation of conditions is
due them and we feel confdent
that when the full facts are laid
before them, they will be inclined
to bear with us just a LITTLE longer.
until we can get our plants rebuilt,
when we believe we will be in posi-
ton to give service second to none.
Every one recalls the flood Of
August 3OSh and the Fact that our.
plant on Rig Hungry was swept
away, but we doubt if many re-.
ilze just what that meant. Tt
meant that work which had cost
us $4,000 and a little over seven
months time to complete had been
swept away in a moment.
Now we did not lose a week IL
getting the necessary information
as to the best delivery obtainable
on the machinery and material
necessary to rebuild and equip our
plant. We found that from four
the largest builders of steel
fume in u country, the quickest
delivery we could obtain was ship
ment to begin Nov. 10th. We
are glad to say that the first car
was shipped Nov. 7th. the second
car Nov. 18th an dthe third a
Nov. 10Th. As there are to be five
cars, the total of 1920 feet should
all be on the way by Dec. LIST. The
first two cars have arrived and are
now bein gunloaded.
The next item was our large
Transformer. We found the best
delivery possible on these was ship
ment by Dec. LIST. We placed the
contract with the head of the firm
in person and he assured us he will
not be a day late in delivery.
The water wheels necessary for
the new work were on the ground
ready for installation, so no delay
need be met on this point.
We have on hand one of the gen
orators necessary for the new
plant and shipment of the other
one is promised in Dec. But as
only the one on nand is necessary
to meet all demands on us until
next July there is nothing to inter
fere with satisfactory starting of
our new plant, just as soon as the
fume can be installed and the
transformers connected up. AS
a final word, we hope to have this
new plant ready for operation by
January LIST, and if our hopes are
realized we will have accomplish
ed in four months what it look us
over seven months to obtain orr
ginaly and our new plant will
supply exactly twice the power
our old plant was capable of fur
nishing.
In regard to operation by our
steam or emergency plant we can
only say that nothing on earth so
exactly fits the case as that topi-
cal song entitled eff you want to
meet a Jonah shake hands with
me-" for it seems that everything
possible has happened to inter
rupt our services. Our engine has
broken in some part or other,
times beyond count. We bought
the finest piece Of steam and ell
ectric machinery in the South, in
the shape Of a DeLaval Turbo-
Generator set. We knew that
this unit was designed for a steam
pressure of 200 lbs, but engineers
OF prominence told us that as we
would not require more than one
third of the capacity of this unit
they saw no reason why our boil
