Major Cardwell, as representing bunch
Of Banner stockholders, went out to in
spect the mine yesterday. AS stated else
where in this issue, Mr.. Cardwell' s exper-
ience as mining engineer renders his
expert opinion Of great value. In an
interview with the Nugget Mr. CardwelI
said:
HWhile my mission in Silver City
was primarily to examine the Village
Blacksmith properties, was also
commissioned to look into the BAN
ner proposition by certain stockhold-
ing interests. I am glad that | shall
be able to report the absolute fact
that every shareholder will make
good on his investment The mine
is bound to be good producer and
a big proposition. 1t is being well
developed and work has been done
in good, systematic workmanlike
manner. Good management is in
evidence and the practical work shows
for itself The mill is modern, ore
bins good and everything evidences
to me high grade Of managerial
ability. Regarding quality Of the
product, / saw some ore there that
will easily run ten or twelve thousand
dollars to the ton and lots of $1,000
ore. The lodges are well defined and
the ore is practically blocked out
The time is near at hand, in my opin-
ion, when the practical results Of an
immense amount of development
work may be realized. The spring
production Of this mine should be
very large"
The Major left this morning. He will
return the end Of April to stay all sum
mer, devoting bis attention to the devel-
opment OF the Village Blacksmith.
Manager Steele started up the mill this
morning, to make another run.
Village Blacksmith
Major B. A. Cardwell arrived in Silver
on Friday evening from the west. The
major is a prominent mining engineer
from Portland and San Francisco and
has operated extensively in Colorado,
California and the Pacific Northwest.
Mr.. Cardwell has closed a contract with
the owners of the Village Blacksmith on
War Eagle Mountain whereby he becomes
the owner of this well-known mine. It is
bis intention to start development work
in the spring, and he expects to carry out
an aggressive campaign on the claims at
that time. Major Cardwell reports that
much interest is being manifested by
practical mining men and operators in
the Silver City district.

SENATOR BAILEY I
DEFENDS LORIMER
Declares He Cannot Be Le-
gally Deprived of His
Seat in Senate
NO PERSONAL KNOWLEDGE
Illinois Statesman Was Not Cog
infant of Bribery on His
Behalf.

Washington, Feb. 13.-By resortiDg
to the bold device of asking his antag-
onists in the senate to stand up and
testify, Senator Bailey Of Texas to-
day developed a dramatic situation in
his discussion of the Lorimer case.
Mr.. Bailey is a member of the com.
mittee on privileges and elections and
coincided with the report declaring
nothing that invalidated Mr.. Lori
mer's title to the seat had been de.
veloped by the committee inyes-
legations. The Texas senator's re-
marks were devoted largely to the
substantiation of his contention that
sufficient number of votes must be
shown to have been bought to affect
the result and unless that this is PROV
en- or that official whose election is
challenged personally participated in
the offanse, there can be no unseating
Senators Root, Borah and Cummings,
ali VI WAOll1 nave opOhCH against MI.
Lorimer, were requested to stand up
and express their opinions as to the
legality of this proposition. He said
that even the Chicago Tribune, whose
charges resulted in the investigation,
had been compelled to eXOnerate the
accused senator of any personal
knowledge or participation in the
bribery. Mr. Bailey contended that
even if the seven votes of White,
Browne, Beckmeyer, Link, Wilson,
Holtslaw and Broderick were not
counted for Lorimer. Mr.. Lorimer still
had been legally and properly chosen,
as those votes, according to the
courts, must be rejected for all pur-
poses, not only subtracted from Mr.
Lorimer's total, but from the total
vote of the legislature.

years.

TAFT FAvORS
TOTAL ABSTINENCE
Poverty. Degradation and
Crime Are Caused by
Excessive Use
QUOTES ABRAHAM LINCOLN
One Who Refrains From ,trong
Liquor Avoids Dangerous
Temptation.

Columbus, O., Feb. 13.-President
Taft, in a letter dated December 20,
1910, and read in 1000 Sunday
schools in the United States, sound
ed the keynote of a total abstainer's
movement. The letter addressed to
Sunday school pupils as MY dear
young friends" and reads:
The excessive use of intoxicating
liquors is the cause Of great deal
OF the poverty, degradation and crime
OF the world, and one who abstains
from the use of such liquor avoids a
dangerous temptation. Abraham Lin
coin showed that he believed this in
writing out for his boy friends the
pledges of total abstinence, so often
quoted.
Each person must determine for
himself the course he will take in
reference to his tastes and appetites;
but those who exercise self-restraint
to avoid altogether the temptation of
alcoholic liquor are on the safe and
wiser side"
Dr. Howard H. Russell of Wester
vile, O., founder Of the Anti-saloon
league, also is founder of the Lincoln
Legion, which originated yesterdays
services throughout the United States.
The movement will be directed as the
total abstinence department of the
Ant-Saloon league, with national
headquarters at Westerville.
