GROOM GARFIELD
DARK HORSE
Ohio PrOgressiyes See Hope
for Him in 1912.

Cleveland. Ohio, Oct 12-James r. Gar
field, Secretary of Interior under Presi-
dent Roosevelt. will be present at the
Chicago meeting OF progressives Monday
and he is expected to outline the fight
which will be waEed against MIR. Taft
for denomination. That a quiet move
ment is on foot among Ohio progressives
to make Garfield a dark horse candidate
for President is no secret. He is looked
upon as strong man in the event that
a compromise between Taft and La Fol
lette forces should be found necessary.
Garfield, it is believed, would have the
backing OF Col Roosevelt on the stump
should he be the candidate.
AS soon as the Chicago meeting is over
the real fight against Taft in Ohio will
begin. Garfield would like to be the next
Republican candidate for governor OF
Ohio, and for that reason has hesitated
to openly oppose the administra ton. But
it is believed. however, he has finally
reached a decision. He declined to dis
cuss the matter to-day further than to
say that he would make known his posi-
tion at the Chicago meeting.

How to Get
Rid of.catarrh
A Simple, Safe, Reliable Way, and
It Costs Nothing to Try.

Those who suffer from catarrh know
its miseries. There is no need of this
suffering. You can get rid of II by a
simple safe, inexpensive, home treatment
discovered by Dr. Blosser, who, for over
thirty-six years has been treating catarrh
successfully.
His treatment is unlike any other. 1t is
not a spray, douche, salve, cream, or in
haler, but is a more direct ana thorough
treatment than any of these. 1t cleans
out the head, nose, throat, and lungs so
that you can again breathe freely and
sleep without that stopped-up feeling that
all catarrh sufferers have. 1t heals
the diseased mucous membranes and
arrests the foul discharge, so that you
will not be constantly blowing your
nose and splitting, and at the same time
it does not poison the system and ruin
the stomach. as internal medicines do.
II you want to test this treatment
without cost, send your address to DR.. J.
w. Blosser, 261 Walton street, Atlanta,
Ga. and he will send you by return
mail enough of the medicine TO satisfy
YOU that IL Is all he claims for 1t as
remedy for catarrh, catarrhal head
aches, catarrhal deafness. asthma,
bronchitis, colds, and all catarrhal COM
plications. He will also send YOU free
an illustrated booklet. Write him imme-
diately.

LoBECK's REQUEST DENIED.
Commissioners Determined to Pro.
ceed with Erection of Stables.

The Commissioners refused yesterday
to grant the request of Representative
Lobeck, OF Nebraska, that the awarding
of contracts for the erection of the pro-
posed stables for the street cleaning de-
partment. in the square bounded by Thir-
teenth and Fourteenth and E and G
streets southeast, be deferred until after
Congress meets.
A telegram was received by the Dis
trict officials yesterday morning from
Representative Lobeck, stating that he
had been advised that bids had been
opened for the erection OF the stables
and that the nation is not in favor of
building stables to disfigure the principal
streets OF Washington"
A special meeting of the Board OF
Commissioners was held. and it was de-
cIded that there was no need of de-
ferring action in the matter. Many pro-
tests have been received by the Com

TEST FOR JURORS
TO Be SEARCHING
Months May. Be Consumed in
Filling Mcnamara Box.

Los Angeles, Cal, Oct. 12-The second
days trial of James B. Mcnamara,
charged with the murder of Charles
Haggerty, one of the nineteen victims
of the Los Angeles Times explosion. will
be resumed at 10 o'clock tomorrow morn
ing. with Veniremen z. T. Nelson, of
Long Beach, again the central figure of
cross-fire of questions aimed by at
torneys for the defense Armed with the
ruling Of Judge Bordwell, that pros
pective jurors can be questioned regard
ing their attitude toward organized labor,
Chief Counsel Clarence Darrow and his
assistants have framed UP a series OF
questions that will make il possible to
get at the feeling Of veniremen in this
respect without placing in jeopardy their
peremptory challenges.
Prospective jurors will be intimately
questioned regarding their acquaintances
their associates, past and present; their
home life; in fact, upon every point that
might tend to show that there Is a re-
mote bias or prejudice against labor or
ganizations. either collectively or indi-
vidually. The veniremen who fails to
answer all these questions satisfactorily
will be excused for cause and without
peremptory challenge.
The programme passed out by the at
torneys for the defense practically pre-
cludes the possibility OF securing a jury
of twelve men inside of two or three
months.
The examination given veniremen by
the State, while not so far-reaching, Will
be almost as thorough.
G. Ray Horton, chief trial attorney,
WILL question the veniremen as to THEM
information regarding socialism. politics,
so-called anarchy, and their reasons. II
any, for not giving the defendant fair
trial. They also will be asked what they
think about circumstantial evidence and
the weight such evidence would have on
the decision. Veniremen who believed
such evidence should have little TO do
with the decision in the case will be
excused by the State.
II was announced by District Attorney
Fredericks, for the State, that a tran
script of the evidence in the blowing
up of the Maine in Havana Harbor and
in the case of DR.. Burke. head of a sana-
torium at Santa Rosa, Cal, convicted OF
destroying with dynamite a tent house on
the sanatorium grounds and nearly caus-
ing the death of a woman and child,
will be introduced as evidence. John Bir-
mingham, OF San Francisco, who gave
expert testimony in both these cases also
will be called as a witness. The Idea Of
the State is to show that the effect Of
both explosions were identical with the
one that caused the destruction OF the
Times Building.
The McNamaras spent the day in their

Included in the samples was seed
ling apple, as yet unnamed, from
the Cobbledick ranch. This was
raised from seed planted six years
ago. 1t is beautiful, full red,
sound and toothsome, and efforts
will be made to trace its origin. It

LIBBY DISTRICT
PLACER MINING

P. ]. Brophy, president and man
ager of the Libby Placer company,
came down from the company S
property last Saturday to return to
his home in Butte. This company
has just completed the installation
of a modern hydraulic plant at a
cost of about $50, 900, and after a
series of tests, in which everything
was put in fine working condition,
was closed down for the year. In
the spring. about the last OF March,
when there is a sufficient flow of
water, operations will be started for
full seasons run.
The plant includes two Pelton
water wheels, two immense der
ricks, two monitors, pipe lines,
fumes, etc. Water is taken from
both Libby and Ramsey creeks.
The pipe line from the penstock on
Ramsey is about mile long and
the line from the Denstock on Lib
by about a quarter mile long. The
aume and pipe line from Ramsey
creek has total length of *
miles and that from Libby creek
"a miles, The fume through
which all material goes is quarter
mile long and 41a feet wide. All
large boulders which the Aume can
not carry will be moved to one side
by the derricks.
The magnitude Of this PROPOSE
lion may be realized when it is said
the plant has a capacity which will
handle 1000 cubic yards Of ground
day. There are about 300 acres
Of placer ground embraced in the
company's holdings. Where oper-
ations will begin in the spring the
depth to the first bedrock is 16
feet. and this will gradually in
crease as the work moves along to
a depth OF 60 or 70 feet. No one
knows the actual depth of pay dirt,
but it has been prospected to prob
ably ten feet below the first bed
rock with favorable results. There
is a series of bedrocks bottoming
the ground and the total depth of
this dirt and it's value is something
for the future to determine, but it

APPLES AND CIDER vs.. POLITICIANS.

When Senator Whiteside was a
candidate for the lower house of
the legislature three years ago the
G. o. p. politicians and papers
poked fun at the senator's preten-
sions as fruit raiser and cider
and cider maker. But he kept
plugging along and is now raising
apples upon such an extensive scale
that his political enemies seem like
small potatoes by comparison. In
fact, if it were not for the White
side display of apples at state and
county fairs, people would scarcely
know Flathead valley was OH the
map as fruit region.
He is now marketing his apple
crop, and from his orchard south
east of Kalispell, which is younger
than his home orchard and just
coming we'll into bearing, he will
have over 1900 boxes, prin-
cipally Mcintosh Reds. The en-
tire crop has been practically con-
tracted for, the fancy grades going
to Chicago.
The Libby herald. [volume] (Libby, Mont.) 1911-1913, 1911-10-19

can be seen from this brief sum-
mary, that not in our lifetime can
the end of operations be seen in the
ground only already tested, even
with the big plant just installed. A
syndicate of Butte capitalists is be-
hind this enterprise.
The Comet company, in which
Mr.. Brophy is also interested, whose
property is about four miles this
side of the Libby Placer company's S
ground, put in hydraulic system
two years ago, and has been work
ing successfully two seasons.
The property was sold by the
Howard brothers and others to Mr..
Brophy and his associates ten years
ago, and it was the intention to put
in plant similar to the one just
completed at that time. Bnt the
policy of the government then was
to look with suspicion upon many
mining enterprises as land grab
bing schemes, and with the advent
of Clifford Pinchot and his policy
this feeling became accentuated.
Efforts to obtain patents to the land
were held up by the forest people
and the proposition laid dormant
during the interval.
While on this subject, it is only
fair to say, under the regime of
Supervisor skeels, an entirely diff.
ferent course has been pursued and
there is now A cordial cooperation
between the department and MIN
ing men in all legitimate efforts to
develop our immense mineral re-
sources,
There are several other placer
companies in an earlier stage of de-
velopment which have tested their
ground by drilling and by pits sunk
by hand, and with such favorable
results that we may look to see
number of big hydraulic plants at
work before long upon Libby creek
and other placer districts in this
section. The right kind of a start
has been made and the Libby dis
trict, as gold producer, will be
known throughout the country, in
the very near future.

made the initial payment on the
Cherry creek quartz group to B.
F. Howard and Paul Pratt, the lat
ter representing A. F. Fosseum.
This deal was negotiated by Mr..
Pratt, and is the most important
one consummated in mining circles
this year.
1t is from the Cherry creek side
that the most extensive operations
of the Snowshoe will ultimately be
carried on. Manager Wilson for
some time has had men at work ex-
tending the tunnel started by the
previous owners, which, when
pushed to the ore vein, will give
all additional depth of 1000 feet
from the present Snowshoe work.

dered to expedite the work on this
tunnel. A three. mile wagon road
will also be built to connect with
the county highway. The build
