DRILL PROSPECTING.

Commenting on drill prospecting" the
Daily Mining Record says: 1t is we'll known
that the churn drill has proven a most effective
means OF determining the extent and approx
mate value of the immense deposits of dissem-
mated ore in Arizona, Nevada and Utah where
the bodies of ore lie near the surface By this
MEANS, full data regarding the ore are obtained
in advance, and work may be started with GER
tanty as to the result.
In other camps, where the ore bodies are of
regular extent but of higher grade and lying
at greater depth, the diamond drill has been
of practical aid in determining the ore bodies
Prospecting by this method has been successful
in Northern Michigan, at Butte Montana at
Jerome Arizona and at Bisbee Arizona 1t is
not unusual that depth of to three thou
sand feet is attained before ore bodies of value
are discovered After property has been
thoroughly prospected in this manner, the aid
OF capital in developing it is not hard to obtain
as full knowledge is then at hand upon which
to base conclusions.
With general view to taking advantage of
this fact, operators IN the Grand Emcampment
district OF Wyoming are expecting to enter
upon a campaign of thorough prospecting with
the diamond drill, declaring that conditions in
the district are favorable and the prospect of
successful results promising. Much Of the work
in this district has been the ordinary prospect
development work, through shafts and tunnels,
principally, as pointed out in recent editorial
in the Grand Emcampment Herald with the
hope of striking near the surface such bodies of
high-grade ore as were opened by the Haggerty
the Doane Rambler and others.
Thorough prospecting with drill should
produce interesting data regarding the formation
at depth, and undoubtedly would result in great
or mining activity in the camp.

GRIST MILL
MAN WHO LEFT PULPIT TO BE.
COME CLERK is INVOLVED
IN A SCANDAL.

RENO, New, March 9O.-one OF
the most sensational divorce cases
to come up in the Reno courts in
long time was that of Rev. John
Cronenberger, heard by Judge Aver
i'll yesterday. The former pastor
was granted a decree
The Cronenbergers were married
at Bucyrus, Ohio, ten years ago,
when the husband entered the min
istry Two years later they came
west, where he filled pulpits in
Colorado and Phoenix, Arizona. Do
nestle differences began at Phoenix,
according to Mrs. Cropenberger,
who charged her husband with be-
ing unduly friends with the So
prano member of the choir in the
Christian church.
A separation occurred in October,
1909, Mrs. Cronenberger going back
to her Ohio home with her two chill
dren, and the husband going to
Santa Barbara, Cal. From there
he went to Santa Ana, assuming
pastoral charge of a church in that
city under the name of Rev. George
High.
In letter to his wife at Buoy
rus, dated October 20, 1909, the
pastor said: IF you knew the
circumstances you would not blame
me- May you all attain to the
resurrection. l can't hope to. I
don't believe there is immortality
in sin and suffering. Forget me.

ALASKAN RESOURCES.

There is no longer any doubt about tbe Va.
RED character and extent of the resources of
AlaSka 1hey are so great that the theorists of
the east, who 1--we IN communities which have
goDDled all out OF doors, wish to have them
locked up indefinitely against the time when
they may need them for themselves
But, despite the fact that the territory conld
easily provide homes and profitable occnnation
Tor many hundreds OF thousands Of people. the
dog-ln-the-manger policy referred to is likely TO
postpone to a distant future it's development
Many OF those who are countenancing the
obstacles placed III the way of Alaskan deveIop-
ment honestly labor under the deluson that
they are dong good thing. They imagine
that by hlnderlng enterprise and making the
territory unattractlve to investors and men with
Keen instinct for gain they are comforting
benefit mankind
But they are doing nothing of the kind. All
they accomplish is the locking up of things
Wnich should be put to use, and which never
VIII be used unless the territory is developed in
the same fashion that other parts of the Union
nave been-that IS, by individual enterprise
II that IS permitted; if men with capital are

VIII soon De hive OF industry affordng employ
hlelt 10 large numbers who will produce an
nuany zen tlnlesr as much as can possibly be
saved by locking up resources
While impediments are placed in the vay
Oh the development of the coal measures of tho
territory, and while its other primary resources
are made practically inaccessible, there is
nearly complete interruption Of a development
depending on their exploitation which causes y
loss OF energy that might be continuously en-.
ployed IN the creation of forms of wealth whose
aggregate value would enormously exceed that
OF the locked-up products
II is short-Slghted policy that interrun+s

construct railroad systems accumulate bv tbe
process, but it is the people who us the rail
roads ''ii
In the last analysis it is merely matter Of
getting things produced, Experience has shown
that ndlvidualism only can be depended upon
to produce satisfactory results of that kind All
other system are defective because they elevate
distribution to the first place. thus putting the
economic cart before the horse
Things must be produced before they can

Post Office Receipts

There has been a steady in
crease in receipts at the Roman
post office each quarter during
the past year. This increase
contil ues as quarter after quar-
ter rolls around and is such as to
cause surprise and wonder.
For the quarter ending June
30, the receipts were $652. IL,
and for the quarter ending Dec.
81, 1910, which included the
heavy holiday business, was
$531.46. This is an increase of
$120.65 over the heaviest quar-
ter of 1910, and shows that Ro-
nan and the surrounding country
is getting better every day.
The money orders sold at the
Roman post office for the same
period totaled So, 673.89.

Butte Man Likes Roman

j. M. Fabian Of Butte is in Ro-
nan this week, spending his leave
of absence from duty at the Basin
creek water works. Mr.. Fabian
was in Roman last year for a few
days and while here invested in
some town property and has been
on the lookout for a farm ever
since. He was deli, hted at that
time with the town and the pros
poets for the future, and is more
enthusiastic than ever at this
time.
Mr.. Fabian is in charge of the
Butte water system at Basin
creek, and says that one hears
more about Roman in Butte these
days than of most any other town
in the state. Butte people who
have been here during the past
month have returned with glow
ing accounts Of how the crops
are looking and are preparing to
secure some of the wonderfully
rich farming land just as soon as
it is on the market.
He says that one hears consid-
cradle in Butte these days of the
prospects for a railroad and he
predicts that inside Of two years
a road will be in operation.
He will put in the best part Of
the week here and then return to
his duties.
