1t would sound whole lot bet
ter to its readers, and the people
Of Flathead county in general
would hold the editor of the Day
ton Leader in higher esteem if he
would use the columns of his paper
towards boosting every part of this
great valley instead Of trying to tear
down any particular community. Big
Fork has as much rights to her
flights of fancy as Dayton, and be-
cause that community shows a pro-
Gressive spirit, and the editor of
the News feels a little bit optimis-
tic over good things coming their
way, does not appear to be cause
for the polluted mudslinging contest
that has grown out of the dispute as
to which town shall have the
electric railroad running thru their
bounds. 1t looks like jealousy

BACK AGAIN.

The old town looks pretty good
to me- said Judge Reed to the Pr
lot Man Sunday morning shortly af-
ter his return from Los Angeles
Cal, where he has spent the past
eight months. Il haven't been gone
so long, but can see many improve
ments. Los Angeles is fine place
and all that, but the moment l got
on Flathead soil again l felt that
| was at home. Some people seem
to have an idea that when l left
here l had quit the place, but l was
just taking little visit to see
the country, and now that / have
come back home-Whitefish is the
only place l call homeland l am
going to stay here until l am ready
to take another trip again"

PILOT MAN !
INSPECTING UPPER NINE.

Last Sunday the Pilot Man accom-
.anied party of interested people
to Lupfer, a station three miles be-
You'd the head of the lake, to look
over the property of the Lupfer Min
ing company.
This prospect was located several
years ago by George Hoffman. an
old-timer and prospector in this val
ley. When the Great Northern
built the road thru the rock cuts in
that vicinity, indications of copper
and galena were found Hoffman
noticed these, and began looking
around for lead. Just a short dis
lance south of the railroad tracks
in a rocky ledge he ran across some
rich out-croppinss and dug down a
little, finding that several veins of
good looking ore, though in small
quantities, dipped into the earth at
an angle OF about 70 degrees. He
followed these for a little way, and
all indications were for the good.
He interested number OF others

a company was formed which got
together a small amount OF capital
to do some real work.
traction engine and some hoist
ing machinery was purchased, also
an air pump. For eighteen months
Hoffman, and two others toiled
ceaslessly digging a shaft into the
bowels of the earth. They had an
air drill TO help along the work and
they made excellent progress. cut
ting a hole thru the solid rock five
by seven feet in size.
Their object in sinking the shaft
was to get down to a water level
and then crosscut to strike the slant
ing vein. After getting down 11O|
feet crosscut tunnel was begun
with length OF 80 feet. One vein
was cat thru which was greatly in
creased in size. The indications
were SO good that they continued
to sink the shaft in hopes OF strik-
ing another vein, slanting in from
the north. A depth of las feet was
reached, and about that time the
bottom of the treasurer's strong
box was also reached, and the work
had to be abandoned.
At the present time everything
stands where it was left two years
ago, and the shaft is over half full
of water.
w. S. Thyng, a mining engineer
and member of the party, made a
very careful examination of the
rocks and lodges in the vicinity and
examined the quartz and rock taken
from the shaft. and pronounced it
as good an indication of a paying
copper mine as he has ever seen.
Several assays have been made of
the ore taken from the shaft, which
show that the ore is rich enough
in copper to pay handsomely, be-
sides containing some gold. 1t will
take considerable more work to as
certain if the ore is there in large
enough body. but this can now be
done without much expense.
Mr.. Hoffman,, the president of tn
company, is still very enthusiastic
over the prospect, and hopes to re-
yive the company again and do
some more work. He feels positive
that there is large body of rich
ore lying in those rocks.

HE OUGHT TO KNOW.

"How's everything with the Sha-
yer News company?" asked the Pr
lot Man of Mr.. J. Wells, the su-
:erintendent. Business is picking
up fine replied Mr. Wells. Il was
just speaking with Mr.. Gruber, the
general manager OF the Great North
ern, as to business prospects, and he
says that business all along the line
is picking up now since the rains
over the northwest. He says that
the indications are the best ever
for bountiful harvest, and as soon
as the crops begin to get harvested
that the Great Northern will have
all it can handle"

It is Claimed That the School Houses

soners and Ask That Schools be
Included In Free List In
New Contract.

A committee of the board Of educa-
ton Is going to ask the city COM
missioners to include the Keokuk
school houses in the free list for cleo
trio current in the new contract now
under consideration.
At meeting of the repairs and
building committee last night, it was
argued that the schools are as much
"a part of Keoknk as the fire depart
ment or the city hall; that the cost
of the schools is obtained by taxation
of the same people, under the same
assessment of the same property, the
only difference being in the manner
OF its expenditure. This being SO, l.
was considered self evident that the
city commissioners ought to include
the Keokuk schools in the free cur
rent provision of the new lighting con-
tract about to be made with the Stone
& Webster interests.
The committee appointed from the
board of education to present the mat
ter to the city commissioners Is com

and In Business-Llke

The Keoknk Industrial Association
is nightly conducting a school of IN
struction for all wards in the city for
the purpose of educating the people
in the franchise propositions which
will be voted on at the special cleo
ton to be held on May % There is
no reason why anyone should be mis-
informed when the time rolls around
for voters to go to the polls to support
the issues
Last evening representatives from
two of the wards We're present at the
Industrial Association rooms to dis
cnss the franchise propositions with
members of the organization. 1t is
the intention to have every ward
send few of its leading voters in
for these consultations SO that every
phase may be discussed and the wards
put right on anything pertaining to
the ordinances which are not under
stood. 1t has been found that there
is still some misunderstanding re-
garding several of Che paragraphs of
the ordinances, but the situation is
expected to be entirely clarified be-
fore the time for voting is at hand.
Mayor Elder stated today that single
instance has not arisen in which a
citizen has opposed the propositions
after particular points in question
had been explained to him. The In
dustrial Association is eager that peo-
pie should right themselves before
voting and the organization will be
glad to answer any question pertain
ing to the ordinances.
The organization will also take it
upon themselves to get out the vote
on May %. Arrangements will soon
be made to do this.

Merchants who know, merchants
who spend millions of dollars for adj

ues come from the newspapers. w. G.
Freeman, advertising manager of the
New York Evening Mail, gives the fol.
lowing specific incident demonstrating
the value of newspaper advertising:
Lord & Taylor, New York, inserted
in forty-eight newspapers, one in each
city that print my advertising stories,
a 1,096line Onyx Hose advertisement,
which cost $4,000.
Each newspaper co-operated By
getting local merchants to make win
dow displays and to advertise Onyx
individually. Onyx got more real SER

pie of Keokul will grant the fran
