The total vote for republican candi-
date for governor in 1908 in Orleans
county was 1925 and it will be seen
this years vote lacked only 434 of this
number. This is considered excep-
tionally good for an off year and in
consideration also of the fact that
this was the home county of Prouty
the candidate for governor in 1908.
The democratic vote in the county
two years ago was 458 and this years
vote shows gain of 96. There was
scarcely any boiling the head of the
ticket Rain throughout the county
undoubtedly kept many voters at
home.

NOTED EDUCATORS WILL

DRAGON MOUNTAIN MINES
TURN OUT VALUABLE ORE

BISBEE, Ariz., July 12.-Copper
mines in the Dragon mountains are
working as never before in the history
of the district, and some of them are
turning out a deal of valuable ore.
Further developments in the main
tunnel of the Middlemarch Copper COM
pany has determined that the sulphides
recently encountered therein extend in
three directions to an enormous de-
gree, and there seems to be no bottom
at all to the vein.
The sulphide carries 20 per cent cop
per and SO gold, and runs we'll in sill
yer.
The Middlemarch is an old-timer for
the district though Of course it does
not go away back into the dark ages,
as do the mines in YaVapai and Mo-
have counties. But it is old and has a
record as a producer, a record which,
however, is now likely to be forgotten
in view of these later good things en-
countered.
The MabIe Copper company is anoth-
er Dragon property that is apparently
making good. A bank roll of $28000
has been expended in the development
of this mine. To show for this they
have a tunnel ATS feet long and a shaft
400 feet deep. Rand drills are being
used in drills both ways from this shaft
at 300 feet, and the ore is showing
nicely as a milling proposition. One
high grade streak and the property will
begin to pay dividends quickly. Twelve
men are employed.

FATHER FORGOT CHILDREN
Lively Contest in Which Former
Private Secretary Claims
100000 Estate

With each of the many interests in
the estate of Bartolo Ballerino repre-
sented by counsel a lively contest de-
veloped yesterday in Judge Rives
court when Edward L. Hutchison, at
torney for Jeanne Uhalt, one of the
claimants sought a continuance on the
ground that he was unable TO prepare
his case because of sickness in his
family. Attorney Appel scoffed at the
request and said the trial of that claim
could be settled in half an hour.
Affldavits were presented and the
continuance granted.
Jeanne Uhalt claims four different
wills, each of which gives practically
the entire 100000 estate to her. The
other contestants, however, set up Il
later instrument, which they assert is
Il valid one. In it, as in the others.
Ballerino cut off all of his ten chill
dren with nothing, but it differs IN
that it bequeathes the bulk to Della
Garrison Quien instead of to Jeanne
Uhalt.
Attorney Hutchison declares the 9TH
er claimants got together on a com
promise, excluding his client, and even
went to the extent of attempting to
secure her exclusion W the immigra-
ton authorities when she was visiting
in Canada. She was for some years
nriyate secretary to BallerinO.

.BARSTOW BELIEVED To
Be RICH IN PETROLEUM
WiIdcatters at Kramer Camp
Reach Top of Oil Sand
After Five Years

]. e. over of Kramer camp in the
Kramer oil fields near Barstow says,
in commenting on WORK in that section,
that indications are for one of the
most extensive oil producing fields in
the west. The oil is reputed to be
good for refining purposes and it is
probable that fuel oil viii have to be
taken in from Bakersfield. He further
predicts entire success in opening op-
erations soon, and says much develop
ment is now in sight.
Every oil field has to have some one
who will risk his money first, in other
words, do the wildcat drilling and
prove the field, says the Barstow
Printer.
Ten years ago D. f. Wilson, now
secretary of the Kramer Consolidated
Oil company began operations near
the railroad with pick and shovel. At
ter delving into the bowels of the earth
to a depth of thirty feet he decided to
form a company and share the Spoils
as we'll as the labor and expense. This
company made a change of location
and power by turning it over to a team
of mules with a rotary to propel start
ing them to work at point three
miles north of Halves. The mules
went around and the hole went down
to depth of 500 feet, the limit.
Enough oil was found at this depth
T. encourage the company and a con-
tract was let for a 000-footahole When
this contract was fulfilled the company
took it over and drilled to 1450 feet,
where casing was broken off and the
hole abandoned for oil and is now be-
ing used for a water we'll. 1t furnishes
an abundant supply of water which
contains no alkali nor sodas. Previous
to this time the work was carried on
by water shipped to Halves and hauled
by teams to the scene of operation.
Here the company suffered a relapse,
but rallied around past failures, start
ing the fourth and present hole. The
delays have been many and not far
between. The expense was over $780,,
600.
Six months ago the we'll reached the
top of the oil sand at a depth ofS2920
feet

MONTANA MAN MAY
OPEN POLAR STAR

GRASS VALLEY, July 12.-James
Neal, mining promoter of Butte, Mont,
is looking over the Polar Star mine,
which lies Immediately back of the
North Star MILL and from the state
ments made by the promoter after
viewing the property it is evident that
the Polar Star mine may resume op-
erations within short time.
The Polar Star is equipped with min
ing machinery of every description and
it will not take much to put the once
good producer on it's legs again. The
company which last operated this prop
erty spent somewhere in the neighbor-
hood of $4,000 on the property and
took out good rock which showed some
free gold.
John Kirby, superintendent of the
Daily West mine at Park City, Utah.
is one of the heavy owners of the
property. There is about 200 acres of
mineral ground on the property and
with proper development there is no
reason why the mine could not be made
one of the best producers in the Grass
Valley mining district
