Dan Ferguson Found Lonely

THERE is A REASON
"Conservation" Is Blamed for

THERE is A REASON

Prospecting is the 1onliest occupation
that man ever tried to follow, for his
way leads into the painless regions OF
new countries where everything is ideal
for the true pioneer. But as lonely IS
the prospector feels. and frequently
wants to feel. present conditions are so
changed that the feeling Of loneliness
is moro emphasized than ever before.
It naturally would mike ths most sea-
soned prospector stop and ponder when
he knows that he can proceed through
an enormous area OF richly m1neralized
country, crossing almost half way across
the state. and be the only prospector
jn that section.
Prospecting Lost Art
This was the experience during the
past few weeks OF Dan Ferguson, ons

HOME RUN PROPERTY

the Homo Run Copper company. that the

there is nothing to indicate that the bot

Mr., Godbe states that recent devel-

shoot Of rich ore six feet In width mark

is shipping grade material also.
Mr.. Godbe added that conditions are ex-

as the drift on the 1S50-foot level was
sent directly into ore as per expectations.
The company drove It's new shaft to tho
1360-foot level, thereby penetrating $50
feet of new ground, and the drift was
extended to the point where the ore had
some distance above promised TO make
its appearance. IT was learned on Thurs
day that the management now has a full
face OF clean ore In the drift, and during
the past few days several mine cars OF
this material have been extracted for
shipment. for 1t Is a first-cIass shipping

THE WALES CLAIM

The following from the Tampa
Times supports the stand the star
took a number of years ago in regard
to this claim:
In the news column of the Times
on yesterday was published an account
of the action of the United States SUI
preme court in dismissing the writ of
error in the case of WALES against the
comptroller, with an outline of the his
tory of this famous claim, and the In
famous action of our state legislature
in postponing, and in effect refusing,
it's payment.
The history of this claim and of the
refusal of the state to pay 1t con-
stitute a chapter in the history OF
Florida that should bring the blush of
shame to the cheeks of everyone who
loves his state and desires to feel
proud of her record.
There was a plain and simple con-
tract entered into with this claimant
by the state, through her executive, to
perform certain services for a certain
consideration. We believe that the
fact of the making of the contract has
never been denied; nor have the terms
thereof been disputed.
1t is undoubtedly true also that the
services specified were performed
but that the state has dishonorably re-
fused to pay the consideration named
in the contract
The legislature at one time passed
an act providing for the payment to
WALES of the pittance of $4,000 in
full settlement, but he, quite justifia-
bly,, refused to accept a stone when he
asked of them bread. AS the only
method remaining TO- securing the
rights of which he had so long been
deprived he brought the proceeding
that has just, by means of a technical
fly been dismissed. There has been no
decision upon the merits. There is
nothing to prevent the making of the
proper party defendant and pushing
the case to a final decision, which will
adjudicate the justice of the matter.
All honest persons acquainted with
the circumstances of the case must
earnestly wish that when a decision
upon the merits is reached it will be
against the state and in favor of the
claimant; though it will be a source OF
modification to all Floridians that
their state should be forced by su-
perior power to do an act of justice
that should have been performed free
" and spontaneously.

NOT SUCH A VERY
BIG MISTAKE AFTER ALL

in the hurry of making up the
Christmas edition, somewhat of an ex-
aggeration was made in the adver-
tisement of the Munroe & Chambliss
Bank. 1t was stated that the resources
of that institution were six million
dollars.
1t is a well known fact that when
one has been looking at things for
long time, he will see some things
that are not there. and won't see some
things that are.
The man who read proof on the adj
vertisement had been reading proofs
and lines of type for hours and days
and nights-till the lines and letters
were running together, and he wouldn't
have known his own name from Cen
eral Kuropatkin's. Also, he had been
doing business with the Munroe &
ChambIiss Bank for a long time, and
1t always seemed to him to have all
the money in the world. 1t didn't
seem in the least improbable that 1t
had six million dollars, or sixty mil
lion.
Also, the ad. setter made another
mistake that we can never stand for,
nor forgive ourselves for overlooking
for he left of the name of z. c. Cham

Chambliss among it's officers and on

The corrected advertisement ap-
pears in today's- issue. It wouldn't be
a bad idea to keep that six million line
standing. At the rate the Munroe &
ChambIiss Bank has grown from 1T
tie check cashing counter in 1897 to
one of the staunchest financial institu-
tions of Central Florida-an institution
that was handing out coin in the 1907
panic when banks all over the country
were giving clearing house certificates
1T isn't going to be so very long be
fore its resources are six million Ii
seems like 1T does about six times the
work of a million now. 1t has been one
of the most powerful factors in bring

Ocala and Marion county now enjoys
