REPORT OF MINERAL NEVADA
Bullion Tax Collector Adamson
Gives Statement of Mining
Outlook to Bankers

The following statement regarding
Eureka County is taken from an al
dress made before the Bankers Associa-
ton in Reno last week by Bullion Tax
Collector L T. Adamson. in which he
gave g complete story Of the mining
operations in the different q
ties of Nevada az this time. In
opening his address Mr.. Adamson said:
"Some months ago I was requested
BY the Secretary Of the Los Angeles
Chamber Of Mines to prepare a 5000
word article. of q statistical nature, on
mining conditions In the State OF Ne
vada, for publication in their 1911 Year
Book. This I did. and am informed
that il is now in the hands of the printer
and will be ready for general distribu-
ton within q very short time. Inas-
much as the article referred TO is along
the general lines that l anticipate would
be Of general interest to this body. /
have drawn largely therefrom in the
preparation of this paper"
Eureka County
Eureka County has produced during
the year 1909, 102, 622 tons of ore of q
value of ss15 .09s 90; during 1910
her output was 1888 tons valued at
e1S1, 146 So; for the first six months of
1911, $3.50 tons al .2s7. 04. The great
falling of in the production as shown
by these figures is due to the complete
decentralization of transportation facili-
ties occasioned by an unprecedented
series Of cloudbursts and foods in the
wear 1909. The famous Richmond Con-
solidated and Eureka Con solidated prop
critics, which were for q number Of
years the greatest lead-silver producing
properties in the world, are now owned
by the United States Smelling Com
pany, and several years ago this COM
pany expended over a million dollars in
placing the mines on q producing basis.
The figures for 1909 show the effects Of
this effort, and as 10 as transportation
is resumed We may look for a very con.
siderable production from not only
this property, but many others as well.
Active work Is nov in progress on the
reconstruction of the railroad along
broader and safer lines than before and
it is now but a matter Of a short time
when this territory will again be in the
heavy producing class. Eureka County
has unlimited mineral possibilities.

DEMOCRATS GOING POLITICS

The eight-hour day for labor
ers and mechanics on Govern
ment works such as shipbuilding,
gun and ammunition making. river
and harbor work, would be ex-
tended to contract work done by
private firms by the terms of a
bill introduced by Representa-
tive Hughes of New Jersey, pass
ed by the House.
Representative Berger, the So
cialist member, said he thought
the bill would not "hold water"
and advised the House to shave
a brickmaker write an eight-hour
law about ten lines in length.
"For the first time in years you
Democrats are playing politics
successfully" Berger said. 1.-THE

old soldier votes; yesterday you
got the Jewish vote, and now you

WITH THE BUSINESS DOCTOR.
To Make a Success of Bust
ness and Get the Money,
Please the Public

"Please the public" said the
Business Doctor. There is the
whole secret of business success.
All over this broad land people
are getting rich, and are doing it
by simply supplying a long-felt
want. From the top Of a mans
head to the soles Of his feet
things can be made to add to his
comfort, and the man who does it
has made money. From the pipe
which he smokes to the cook
whom he hires, it's only a matter
of adding to his comfort to get
his money.
at has not been many years
ago that the first car down on
Monday morning carried a bunch
of men, each Of whom had a
bundle Of laundry in a newspaper
package, taking it to the man
who did his work. Saturday
night he was compelled to go
back for it. Then came the
wagon which called for the laun-
dry the first of the week and re-
turned it the last.
The present state OF that
business is that a man is in a
hurry to go some place Tuesday,
the laundryman will come Mon
day morning and get his clothes,
wash and iron them, mend every
tear. sew on every missing button,
darn the holes in every pair Of
socks and lay them neatly
wrapped in his room Tuesday at
noon. The average man would as
soon be run through a clothes
wringer himself as to have his pet
shirt torn. The modern laundry
is simply an unusually good ex-
ample of what perfection may be
obtained in the way Of personal
service. As to the result, every
la%undryman in this town runs an
automobile.
What is true ofthis trade is true
Of every other. The question of
price is little compared to the
question Of service. A better
quality article, a better packed
bundle, a better delivery system,
a more courteous corps of clerks,
half-size collars, quarter-size shoes
long and short sleeves for ready
made shirts, special delivery for
people in a hurry. free umbrellas
in theater Hobbies, plenty of
stamps and change in the drawer
and a thousand other things by
far too numerous to mention are
along the lines of better service
and better quality, which are the
two great requisites to business
success to-day.
"There is no truer statement
than the one that if a man do any
piece of work better than his fell
lows. the world will tread a path
to his door, even though he build
his home in a wilderness. II you
want to make money, do your
work well, render better service
to your patrons than they have
yet had, or add to the comfort of
any man, and he will pay you for
it handsomely. Let me repeat,
to make money, merely please the
public"

TEACHERS ORGANIZED
FOR INSTITUTE WORK
First Meeting Was Held Yes
tGrday

In the office of County School Com
missioner Moore Saturday the teach
ers of Sumter county held a meeting
that was of great interest and helpful
ness to all present, as the institute
work for the fall term was organized.
Mr.. Moore was elected chairman of
the meeting and Mr.. A. R. Jordan was
reelected secretary. "The Profession
of Teaching" was the subject of an in
teresting talk by Mr.. J. n Robinson,
who responded to an invitation to
speak on this subject.
Some exceptionally good work is ex-
pected from the teachers this year by
Mr.. Moore, who asked that every teach
er in the county cooperate with him
to bring about these desired results.
The attendance at the opening session
of the institute was most encouraging
in this particular, as nearly every
teacher in the county was present.
An invitation was extended to Chan
cellor David C. Barrow, of the Univer-
sity of Georgia, to deliver an address
before the teachers here on November
Is. In order that this occasion may be
one of the greatest inspiration and
helpfulness to the individual teachers
the following program was arranged
to bring into TIE discussion of ques-
tions the experience f local teachers:
1. School Sanitation. Nj. n. R. Black
mon. Miss Annie Mae Brannon
2. Arithmetic; Multiplication of Frac
tions, Miss Mabel Dill, Miss Virginia
.Swindell.
8. Ceaorc3 discussion of school work
and iro.o~ ~ame1t Of school property.

date named will open promptly at 10

WILL ORDER A PRIMARY

No Doubt About Course of
Committee

Atlanta, Oct. 14.-It may be stated
with reasonable certainty that pri-
mary will be held for governor in
spite of the story in The Constitution
yesterday morning to the effect that
the executive committee may refuse to
call one.
Chairman w. C. Wright was here
yesterday and received in person Gov
ernor Smiths statement that he
would retire Nov. IS. A conference
was held afterwards between Chair
man Wright and Rube Arnold
1t was left entirely in the hands OF
the chairman as to the calling of a
primary and issuing a call for meet
ing of the committee. He will write
members to, ascertain their general
idea as to the time, which will prob
ably be the latter part of October.
1t is hardly probable that the COM
mittee would decline to call pri
mary with about $1,000 negroes reg

WILL SELECT
new APPARATUS
NEXT TUESDAY
OFFICIALS TO GO TO MACON
Practical Demonstration Will
Be Given of Work

An official order for the new combi-
nation chemical and hose truck that
was authorized at the last meeting of
Council as additional equipment for
the local fire department will be plac-
ed next Tuesday, when the mayor,
chief of the fire department, and the
members of the fire and police COM
mittee will go to Macon to see a prac-
tical demonstration of the work of the
apparatus.
Among the equipment of the fire de-
partment of the city of Macon is an
exact duplicate of the truck that IS
desired for the local department. The
southern representative of the Ameri-
can-LaFrance Fire Engine Company,
who are the makers of this apparatus,
will be present in Macon to show the
merits of the truck and to give prac-
tical demonstration of it's efficiency.
Mayor Mathis, Chief Macarthur and
the members of the fire and police
committee, who are Messrs. J. S. Boil
ton, Chairman; w. E. Brown and G.
w. Riley, will make the trip to Macon
so that the officials of the city who
have charge of the important work Of
equipment may have the advantage of
seeing a practical demonstration of
the identical apparatus before anorder
for it is placed. This has been deemed
a wise precaution on the part of the
city, as it caves the final selection of
the apparatus to come after it is
clearly shown that it will answer the
needs Of the Locals department.
In behalf of the proposed equip
nent it is claimed that exact duplicates
of the machines named are now in use
not only in Macon but also in Savan-
nah, the latter city having recently
placed an order for ten of the trucks
with the intention of entirely dispens-
ing with the horse-driven trucks there.
On account of the success with which
these trucks have met it is believed
that they have passed the experimental
stage and have shown themselves to be
thoroughly trustworthy and practical
machines.
