DEBORAH, Iowa, October %. ~
In the DEBORAH papers for last
week the most of the candidates for
county Offices were mentioned, so
thought | would say a few words
about Selnes. l understand there
are republicans who are trying to
beat him out Of the Office, for what
reason / DO not know.
Selne5 has his faults, but who is
there WAC viii come up and say, II
am without fault" Selnes is about
as honest and upright a man as [
know Of, and he does not have much
to say about others. In mos eases
there are those who know the least
that sqpeal the most. There are
these who spend SO much time in
watching others that they have no
time to look at their own business.
In road work Selnes has about
as much experience as the most Of
men and yet he might be mistaken
in some> cases, but | wonder how
much better his opponent would be?
Selnes is always willing to do all
he can and as good as he knows
how.

Election Returns.

We have been endeavoring to make
arrangements to furnish the election
returns next Tuesday night, so that
everybody may get the returns and
still be comfortable. 1t is probable
that the Grand opera house will be
opened and the returns thrown upon
q large curtain. This will be the
IDEAL way, but it is an expensive
proposition. We did that way once
before and hope to be able to ar
range with other parties desiring
teturns so that everybody can get
them in one place, which is the only
proper thing to do. If present plans
Iare carried out, direct telegraph and
telephone wires will be placed into
lthe Grand opera house, and a NOM
inal fee charged as admission, to
pay at least part of the expense.
Some one should be delegated by
the election judges in each precinct
in the county to telephone the re-
turns to DEBORAH as rapidly as the
judges complete the count on presi-
dent and county officers. Then we
will telephone back what we have
learned through the telegraph and
over the phone from other parts of
the county. Let's all work together
and in that way the best service can
be given.

LOST MINE ON
 THE PORCUPINE

Every mining country has at least one Host mine" and Alaska is no exception to this rule. On this coast the tradition has it as the Lost Rus sian Mine, in Idaho and Nevada 1t is the Lost Cabin" and so on.
 In the interior of Alaska it is the Host prospector" who finds the hid den wealth, and then, being short O. grub. leaves his find and makes his way to the town, and through sickness or death is never able to return to his discovery
 In both cases, however, a map care fully drawn is always left with boon companion or partner, and this forms, along with the story of the richness of the strike. the basis for the efforts that are made to locate the lost ground ever after.
 There is the Lost Cabin Find that has caused so many stampedes; on the Yukon there is "The Lost Rock CT" mine, where a prospector rocked fortune and then built raft and foated down the Kuskokwim and lost the poke in the river subsequently, dying before his return to the scene of his find.
 On the Kenai peninsula are tales of the mines located by the early Rus. sian traders, who covered them up in order to keep the Great White Czar from stealing them.
 Then there are the mines hat have been found by the Indians or natives and who have confded in the Russian priests. who have guarded the secret so we'll that it only annually leaks out through devious channels and is hand ed to some prospector together with the inevitable map, and again the rush is on.
