Baxter Springs news. [volume] (Baxter Springs, Kan.) 1882-1919, 1910-10-20

November. This will be the
biggest mill in the Baxter camp,
and one of the biggest in the en-
tire district.
The Good Luck is running
steadily on a fine face of ore, and
is the most consistent producer
in the lead and zinc district.
The ore is found largely in free
form, and enough has been de-
veloped to keep the mill going
steadily for many months with
out any more development work.
The Heap-O'Brien mine made
a good turn-in of ore last week,
filing a good big Car. The dirt
from this mine is good and very
uniform, and the mine also fur
nishes plenty of water to clean
the ore with. The mill is doing
good work, and the gas engine
recently installed is making quite
a saving in fuel bills.

The Campaign.

Only about three weeks until
election, and so far the campaign
! has not even waxed warm, let
alone hot. Political meetings
are advertised all over the coun-
try, and spellbinders are sent out
over the country to ''spellbind, T"
but only in the towns do they
have any audiences. Out in the
country districts the farmer will
not quit his work to 60 and hear
a political speech, and when the
meetings are held at night he is
too tired to 60. He has worked
hard all day, and he intends to
get up early the next morning,
so it is no meeting for him. AT
the present time he is engaged
in getting his crop taken care Of
before the bad weather sets in.
Then, too, this political speech
making is most all rot. 1t has
come to be believed by hard
thinking men that political
speeches do not make a single
vote. The voters have their
minds made up now how they
are going to mark their ballot,
and all the talking this side of
the pearly gates is not going to
change anybody. The average
voter knows that the political or.
ator is only out to show himself,
and does not as a general rule
care anything about the people.
OF course, there are instances
where the contrary might be
proven, but they are few and far
between.
The average man long ago
found otft that the foreigner
does not pay the tax" and the
only question agitating the peO-
ole today is whether or not they
want to continue paying it them
selves. Some do, and others do
not. Some believe the enormous
industries of the country still
need Infant industry" protec-
ton, and a lot more people do
not believe any such thing. But
as we said in the start, they are
making up in their own minds
how they intend to vote, and the
spellbinder is not having any
luck. In this advanced day and
age the average voter is doing
his own thinking.

Jim Orr, candidate for regis
ter of deeds; Fred Hitler, candi-

tin, candidate for sheriff, were
in Baxter the latter part of last
week. They went from here to
Lowell, where Ed. Sapp, candi-
date for Judge, and AL. Majors,
candidate for county attorney,
addressed a big meeting in the
evening.
Billy Shafer is not finding
much time to campaign in his
race for reelection to the Office
of county clerk, but then 1t is
not necessary. His work is good,
and his courteous treatment of
all who have business in his of
fee is sufficient for the voters.
They know he is a competent
official, and that his carefulness
in Office is enough to pay his SAL
airy. We really do not believe it
costs the county anything for
clerk when Shafer holds the job.
He saves enough for the county
to pay his salary.

HOW THE MOON MAY
LIFT A CITY'S FOUNDATION


The ground nder our feet might rise a
foot in Il hours. 1t might lift us a foot
higher at noon than at midnight. This
whole city might be lifted a foot and no
one would feel 1t. If the whole surface
moved smoothly and evenly, we would
know nothing about 1t unless we could
measure the movement through the whole
surface for thousands of quare miles.
This has not yet been done in a way
that will show finally what the movement
is, if 1t goes on reg DR.. IieSker. OF
Potsdam, in Germany, now feels sure that
the movement does go on regularly every
day and that he has found a way to meas
ure il. He used a pendulum so arranged
that ii answers any movement OF the
earth's surface under it. 1t makes a rec
ord from which he calculates that the
earth's surface rises and falls about eight
inches, twice a day. under the city of
Berlin. He believes hat this is caused
by the moon and sun combined. as they
pull on the earth's surface. He thinks
the moons pull may have most to do
with il.
Without using a pendulum or any other
instrument, we can see why il was said
several years ago in this country that the
sun must lift the earth's surface some
what higher daily. We say that all things
expand with increased heat. AS the earth
turns its surface into the suns heat, In
summer, the power of the sun which is
then raising hundreds of millions OF tons
Of growing vegetation, may make a very
considerable lift Of the surface. II this
takes place and the surface rises smoothly
and falls smoothly, we would not feel it.
If the rise or fall were stopped in part,
for any reason at any place. we would
certainly know 1t. There would be an
earthquake. II the stop were sudden and
violent. we could expect a sudden and
violent shock. With the force that had
moved smoothly through the Whole sur
face checked under our feet, we might see
the surface around us rising and falling in
waves several feet high.
