WILTON'S Mine
FIRST IN STATE
OUTPUT OF WASHBURN co,
ESTIMATED AT 10000 TONS
THE CURRENT YEAR.

Wilton, N. D., Nov. 10. Wilton,
with population of less than a thou
sand is the seat of the largest Ignite
coal industry in North Dakota and
perhaps in the United States.
1t is less than a dozen years ago
that the Wilton mines were opened
by Gen. HI. d. Washburn of Mime
apolis, who purchased about $4,000
acres in this vicinity and began de-
veloping the vast fields OF Ignite found
within the bounds of his purchase.
The output was naturally small at
first, but year by year the industry
has developed until at present the
company Is mining 1900 tons a day.
A visit to the mines will astonish
those not familiar with conditions. The
company has under its control two
mines, but at present but one is being
operated. II is a shaft sixty feet below
the surface, where a vein of Ignite
coal ranges in thickness from ten to
sixteen feet. The mine is lighted by
electricity and the coal is brought to
the foot Of the shaft by means of mo-
tor cars.
Each miner is supplied with cars
which hold about one and a half tons
Of COAL and as he fills them they are
drawn to the main entry by mules and
thence by motor to the foot of the
shaft. The cars are then brought to
the surface and weighed. AS each
miner is paid on a tonnage basis, tags
are supplied them by the comrany, |
and when a car is loaded, a tag is at
tached to it with the number OF the |
miner upon it.
After the coal Is weighed it is run |
through screen in order to eliminate |
the slack and small coal. To assure |
good weight, a representative of the |
Western Weighing association has |
charge OF the weighing after the coal |
is put iii cars.
The 500 railroad is the only line |
transporting coal from the mine, but |
the Northern Pacific has finished grad |
ing a branch line, with Wilton as it's |
western terminal, and it is only a |
question of a few months when the |
steel will be laid.
In order to fill the orders the COM |
pany runs day and night force, pro-
ducing from 1900 to 1900 tons daily. |

Another Side of King Leopold.
So many uncomplimentary stories
nave been told about the late King
Leopold of Acknowledgment" his
enemies called him--that it would
| seem but merest justice to relate one
that shows him different light.
This same Leopold, who bulldozed
his parliament. fiouted his people and
sold his daughters favorite horses
When she displeased him, could be as

Americans, as anyone could wish.
once a rancher from North Dakota.
man of striking height, took passage
on a North German Lloyd boat from
Genoa to Naples. Travelling by the
same ship was the king Of the Bel
gians, accompanied by a single euuer-
ry.
After dinner the big American start
ed on the usual post prandial tour of
the deck. Far in. the stern his eouer-
ry beside him, sat King Leopold. and
as the American strobe by he could
not but notice that the monarch scrt-
tinized him with peculiar interest.
The second time round the ROYAL in
terest was yet more marked, and on
the third turn the kings companion
approached the American.
i beg your pardon, sir; but his ma
1esty desires me to ascertain your ex-
act height"
why, said the surprised western
en- i guess I'm about six feet six"
The secretary thanked him. and the
American continued his INTERRUPTED
walk. When he again appeared the
king himself rose.
am sure You will pardon me. sir"
SAID ne; but 1T seems scarcely posi-
Dls that you can be taller than I am,
would you mind standing back to back
with me- and my adjutant here shall
determine which of us is the taller"
so the western ranchman and the
Belgian monarch stood up back to
back and the equerry, climbing on
chair, announced with some hesitation
that the ranchman was two inches
taller than the king.
The incident referred to occurred
between King Leopold and John w
Maher of this city and Mr.. Maher Oft
en- told the story to his close friends
In this city, but this is the first time
II has been published. King Leopold
according to Mr.. Maher, seemed mar,

cussed conditions in that part Of |
North America. Mr.. Maher thought
That the king was either interested q : |
nanclally there or was thinking SER
ously of making investments In the |
northwest territories.

the grand old man of the Republican
wars In Sussex. well I will I'm a
minute. Say, I've been sending men
to the Legislature and to Congress
and to county Office all my life, and
I've come to the conclusion I'll send
myself this time. that is, if | can"
And with that Mr.. Swain shook his
clothing for he had been caught in a
rain storm I'm the middle of his fine
peach orchard just before he caught
the train to Dover. He is a Moth 'es-
forker." If elected he would repre-
sent Governor Pennewill's old SEN

lay some legislative plans by jan

do not know.
You see, it's this way. have not
yet got the nomination; then there is
the election. While the state needs
some remedial and some constructive
legislation and needs some less laws,
I think I'll wait and trust TO my
friends.
You can say. however, that If

for myself as a citizen of the state
of Delaware and as a member of the
Republican party, but always with a
clear conscience"
