There Is no question about it; but
the election Of Tuesday, April 5th,
will carry much that is of import to
the taxpayers. For instance, the
many permanent improvements made
by the Citizens will not
need further repair or rebuilding. This
should leave a handsome surplus for
the sinking fund. Now, it may be
recognized by the opposition that a
surplus is likely to accrue. 1t would
be easy for the opposition to dissi-
pate this, claiming that the money
was in excess of appropriations and
might just as we'll be expended.
Gilpin observer., 1910-03-31

There is no more reason now why
the voters should cast their ballots
next Tuesday to return to power in
the city the galaxy of Guggenheim
worshippers, than there was three
years ago Of retaining them in con-
troll. There was absolutely no reason
for showing them political prefer
ment then-there is less now.
Gilpin observer., 1910-03-31

When you step into the booth Tues
day, remember that if you write the
word Democratic" or "Citizens" at
the head of the ballot you are not
only endorsing an administration that
has been satisfactory, but you are
voting for a continuance of good gov
ernment in municipal affairs.
Gilpin observer., 1910-03-31

With good business men at the
helm, it is not likely that they will
do anything harmful to their own
business interests. Look over the
Democratic-C Citizens ticket and it
will be seen that a number Of the
best business men in town were hon
ored with a place on the ticket.
Gilpin observer., 1910-03-31

The enemy was quite taken aback
at the array Of figures given in last
weeks issue of this paper. Such am
munition Is the strongest kind Of ar
gument to scatter the insinuations
and innuendoes of the opposition.
Gilpin observer., 1910-03-31

Yes, the election will be one of i'm
portance; all elections should be and
will be.
Gilpin observer., 1910-03-31

A recent decision of the Supreme
court is to the effect that mine
owners can cut timber for mining
purposes on the public domain only
in regions which are mineral in cha
acter. This decision puts an end 10
a long standing dispute between the
mine owners and the land agents.
The miners have contended and their
contention was sustained by most Of
the lower courts, that the law sov-
erning the cutting of timber for min
ing purposes gave them the right to
cut timber on public land in any part
of the state"

COTTON OFF s. BALE
SOUTHERN SPOTS MARKET DID
NOT DECLINE.
Prices OF One Cent From Extreme
High Seasons Biggest
Brsak-Market Weak.

Memphis, Tenn.-For the first time
since the cotton market started on an
advance from l0ig cents in June last 1t
closed weak and demoralized Wednesday,
the bulls in rout, their faith shaken,
their cause in disrepute. The days
losses were half a cent, and a. compared
with the high point Of the season IS to
IS points in New York, and 100 to i2O
points in New Orleans. From 16.46c on
Thursday May broke TO 1900 and July
Tuesday May broke TO 1900 and July
in New Orleans from lille 10 1890.
In the local marts there was a fair
demand for cotton during the morning
and the total turnover reached $500
bales. Naturally in the afternoon, with
prices crumbling, the inquiry fell of and
little demand may be expected for a
time. But in the end, unless there is
much more cotton in the country than
the best information indicates, the man
ufacturer will be forced to buy It. The
action of Southern spinners at Charlotte
should, under normal conditions, have
been a bullish influence, as a schedule of
prices for yarns was adopted, based upon
16c cotton, and it was not decided to
curtail until every effort had been made
to force values up.

Primitive Fire Fighters.

AS late as the end Of the sixteenth
century 10 London the sole method OF
extinguishing fires was by. means OF
contrivances known as "hand squirts.'
These were usually made Of brass.
with carrying capacity ranging from
two to four quarts Of water. The two
quart "squirts" were two and half
feet In length. one and a half inches In
diameter ut their largest part and but
half an inch Mt the nozzle. On each
side were handles. and three men were
required to manipulate "squirt."
One man on each side grasped the han
die In one hand and the nozzle in the
other, while the third man worked the
piston or plunger, drawing 1t out While
the nozzle was Immersed IN supply
Of water which filled the cylinder.
The bearers then elevated the nozzle
when the other pushed In the plunge
the skill Of the former being employed
In directing the stream Of water upon
the fire. Such primitive contrirances
are said to have been used during the
great fire of 1866.
