good work with the bat. The work Of

WITH their last issues two of Flor.
da's most interesting and progressive
weekly newspapers celebrated their
birthday anniversaries - The Sanford
Herald completing its second year, and
the East Coast Advocate, Titusville,
entering upon its twenty.frst year.
The Herald has but few equals among
the weekly press of the State. and the
people of Sanford and Orange county
snow their appreciation of the efforts
of Editor Holly by a most liberal pat
ronage. The Titusville Advocate is too
we'll known to our readers to need COM
ment, but its rosy hue indicates that it
is enjoying satisfactory patronage,
and is still in the bloom of youth, des-
pite its weight of years. Editor Wal
ton is, probably, the most successful
among the Florida weekly editors, be-
ing the only one who resides in stone
mansion with many windows.

Some time in January, at the sug-
gestion of Postmaster L. NJ. Hull, a

of the building would be very willing

TELLS Of VICTORY
N COURT
WOOD RIVER WEEKLY TIMES
GIVES THE ACCOUNT OF MRS.
KETTLER's SUIT FOR THE
NINE.

The Wood River Weekly Times,
printed at HALEY, Idaho, has the
following story of the legal victory
of Mrs. Louis Kettler, who lives at
222 North d street, this city. Mrs
Kettler some time ago disposed of
a portion of her interests to the We
natchee Realty company, of this
city, and considerable publicity has
been given to the record OF the liti-
cation in which the mining property
belonging to these parties has been
involved. The newspaper account is
as follows:
MRS. Kettler has won her suit
against the owners of the Independ-
ence group of mines for a portion
of one of the claims of that group
that is admitted to contain about Is
feet of the ore body developed by
the locator. Charles Swanson, and
his assigns, the independence Min
Ing company.
This much is admitted by Harry
]. Allen, who promoted the sale to
the company, and who is heavily
interested in the ownership Of the
property.
THE gross value of the ore de-
veioped is estimated all the way
from one-half TO one million doll
lars.
But whatever the vaIne, it viii
not be available to either claimant.
as both are tied up by order OF the
court, and cannot ship any ore from
the property until the ownership is
finally adjriieaAed. tn ! United
.ss&tsss. supres7a aaspz7 rih probably
be lie tfsns IN At Aka aini1ss de-;
decide tho uus1k1sns 1t issue The
case may, therefore. drag along in
the courts for years. In the mean
time We here must be content to see
this magnificent property remain un-
exploited, to the detriment OF COM
munity and owners alike.
Notwithstanding this the people
of HALEY feel like congratulating
Mrs. Kettier upon the well-nigh
hopeless fight that she made for her
rights despite the advice of her best
friends. And that fight having been
successful they would wish her to
enjoy the fruits of her victory with
out having to withstand the annoy
ance and expense attendant upon
years OF contention.
This is not the first time that
Mrs. Kettler has won a fight against
great odds. At times-in her wa
ter suit, for instance-even her legal
counsel advised her to cease litigat-
ing, and be content with what she
could get without g. suit. But she
persisted and, won her contentious in
every case.
Mrs. Kettler came here twenty-six
years ago in the heyday of her youth.
She is therefore middle-aged. If the
independence Is kept in the courts
for many years she may not, in the
course of things human, live to en-
| joy the ease that greater wealth
might bring her. But her many
| friends here and elsewhere will wish
that she may at least be freed from
all further necessity to forcibly up
hold her rights and be thus enabled
to enjoy her remaining days in
peace"
