Probably the greatest outburst
against the bill occurred when for
mer Governor John Strange of Wis
consin, introduced as representing the
wrapping paper manufacturers and
the boards Of trade of Neenah and
Menasha, Wis, addressed the COM
mittee. He swerved from criticism
Of the bill to attack ''the American
Publishers association, and its re-
Lated organizations, the Associated
Press" until finally Senator Penrose
asked him to limit his remarks to his
specific objection to the bill. Mr..
Strange characterized the bill as q
"cowardly and unpatriotic" measure
and brought forth at the demand Of
"the greatest trust In the world" He
said that congress would not be in
session today considering the bill "if
1t had not been for this combination
in restraint OF trade
when man who occupies an ex-
alted position listens to such demands
for fear of failure Of reelection rath-

J. By BUSINESS MEN
F. |. PECK. Of N. c. R. R.. and His
Associates Hold a lO-Year Run
Of Timber.

As The Leader stated last Satur-
day, any number Of rumors and
hearsay reports have been going
the rounds here about the reopen
ing of the Pearlhaven lumber mill,
a mile northeast of the city.
At the present time matters are
in more definite shape than they
have been since the mills closed
two years ago and removed their
working force to Bogalusa, La,
since which time the property has
practically gone to waste, although
steam has been kept up in order to
get the reduced insurance rates and
a small Office force kept to transact
whatever business remained at this
end of the line.
WHAT THE PROSPECTS ARE.
Last week it was learned by sew
eral prominent business men of the
city that Mr.. F. L. Peck, of the
Mississippi Central Railroad, and
his associates, had purchased large
holdings of timber west of Brook
haven in Franklin and Amite coun-
ties and contemplated milling the
lumber at some point in one of
these counties, Mr.. s. E. Moreton,
of the Central Lumber Co., of this
city, nee gtiating the deal.
A meeting was held by those in
terested in Brookhaven's welfare to
discuss plans to induce Mr.. Peck
to locate here and use the old PEARL
haven mill property.
The outcome of this conference
resulted in the opening up of
negotiations with the Goodyear
corporation, the owners of the
rearlhaven property and an option
was secured on 1.-THE price being
s27. .000.0
Following this up alEeE another
conference, Messrs. f. F. Becker
and w. n. Seavey have been cir
cuIating a subscription list among
Brookhaven's business people, with
tn idea of raising the $27, 900 and
offering the mill to Mr.. Peck as an
inducement for him to locate the
plant here. Only few subscrip-
tions have been listed, without
much effort, and the probability is
that the amount will be easily rails
ed when thorough canvass is
made, which will be done this
week.

CAPTURE MUSTANGS WITH
CHEMICAL LOADED BULLETS

A novel scheme has been devised
by two Salt Lake men to capture
alive the best of the wild horses
that roam in Southern Nevada. 1t
is proposed to shoot the animals
with a bullet tipped with magnes-
ium and containing a gelatine cap
sule filled with narcotic drug. The
magnesium, it has been found dis
solves in the flesh and causes nc
permanent injury if a vital organ
is not penetrated. while the OPT
ates deprive the game temporarily
of the power of locomotion.
In the nomadic equine bands are
many magnificent specimens. Stall
lions valued at $500 a head are
not uncommon. The present meth
cd of capture is to wear them out
by chasing in relays.
If their method proves success
full in Nevada the Salt Lakers will
try it on some of the wild beasts
valuable for exhibition purposes.

PASTOR DECLARES STORY OF
DELUGE Is SIMILAR To THE
BABYLONIAN LEGENDS.

NEW YORK, March 2S.-The
scriptural story of the flood which
has been taught in the Sunday
schools of every Christian land for
ages, was characterized by the Rev.
Dr. Charles F. Aked in his sermon
in Fifth Avenue Baptist church as
unbelievable by students of history
or science. Certain parts of the
Book of Genesis, he added, are
akin to the legends of Assyrla
and Babylon. I'VE gain and do
not lose" said DR.. Aked, when
we try to learn the inspiring les
sons of those myths in the Bible.
At least two great truths they
teach-there is only one uncreated
God, and the individual conception
of restored race on renovated
earth. If this keeps on we shall

GOOD STRIKE MADE
AT RANDSBURG, CAL.

west of the famous Sydney group
of mine, is proving that the dis
covery is one of great Importance,
says the Miner, Five tons panning
$3.50 per ton have been sacked
The vein has been opened up on
the surface for over 100 feet The
ore shoot is five feet wide and
averages about $35 per ton for a
length of fifty feet. The rest of
the exposed portion is lower grade.
On the hanging wall from four to
ten inches of $3.50 rock have been
found.
Powell and Humphreys, the for
tunate discoveries of the vein, have
owned these claims for several
years. In the early days small
shoot of extremely rich ore was
found and few hundred pounds
taken out, sacked and shipped to
the Selby smelter by express. or
late years only annual assessmen
work has been done, and until the
finding of this vein. no ore has
since been milled.

Der of paintings were made Satur-
day afternoon An assay ton, the
usual amount taken for panning,
yielded string of colors an inch
long. probably $50.
This evidence that the rock that
is not distinguished by surface
colors will run somewhere around
$40 to the ton, while the rich
specimens would assay into inter
esting figures.
1t is also taken into consideration
that the West boy hardly selected
the poorest stuff, or even a good
general average to send to his faith
er, and the general run of the
ledge may not run so rich as the
assays or paintings would evidence
but there is strong proof that a
very interesting discovery has been
made, one that may result in the
making of a mine or even of a

JUST INVENTED
GOLD SEPARATOR
IS Big SUCCESS
MACHINE HAS ALREADY DEM
ONSTRATED IT'S WORTH IN
SAVING VALUES.

SALT LAKE, Utah, March Is
One of the most important enter
prises affecting the development of
the west which will spread to all
gold producing regions, not only in
this but in other countries, is what
is known as the Inman automatic
separator and rapid concentrator.
Claude C. Inman of Goldfield,
New, the inventor and patentee, is
a guest of the Cullen. Mr.. Inman
has in operation on the Green river
at Mesa, Utah, one of these ma
chimes, and from the sands, bear
ing gold and platinum, most Won
derful results have been secured.
The concentrates derived from the
process of the Inman separator
show these figures: Values, $3.50
ounces gold; platinum, 20; gold
value, 1852; platinum value,
$l16.9O; total, $1,000.
The above work is demonstra-
ton of what modern methods can
accomplish in retaining the fine
gold that is found in the sands of
the valleys of Utah, along the Snake
river in Idaho and it's tributaries, in
the valleys in California and in
the gold-producing valleys of
Alaska.
The Inman separator and rapid
concentrator has been investigated
by number of Salt Lake capital
lists and so fayorably are they i'm
pressed with the work that is ca
pable Of being performed that they
are taking steps to form cor
poration for the manufacture of
these machines here in Salt Lake.
Mr.. Inman, after looking over the
several points OF business centers
in this intermountain country, final
ly concluded that Salt Lake is the
logical point at which the plant
can be shipped to all places where
the gold sands exist to advantage.
Asked as to the capacity of the
machines and their cost, Mr.. Inman
said: 1t will cost about $3.50
to build a plant with a daily ca
pacity of 500 cubic yards. Of course,
financial results would depend en-
TREY upon the value Of the crude
material sent through the separator.
lt is not our intention, nor shall
II be permitted to sell or offer
for sale any stock in this company.
Our object is to build plants.

TO have you remember and the pub
lie know that this concentration, up

last sixteen years to perfect, is es-

OF saving fine gold such as is found
IN all the ore-bearing sections of
this and other countries. think
this problem by my invention has
been solved, and the most expert

process accord with this one fact,
that it is the most effective in the
