UNITED MINES
ARE WORKING

The work at the United Mining
Company is going ahead as fast as
material can be received. The en-
gines compressor and other connec-
tons have been made and all that
is now necessary is the pump rods,
which have been ordered from the
coast. As soon as this arrives the
machinery will be started and the
unwatering of the shaft will begin,
The lowering of sinking pumps will
follow and the United Mining Com
panv will settle down to an all wint~
ers sinking siege. 1t is probable that
they will reach the 1000 foot mark
in the main shaft bbcfore the spring
arrives. This is real mining that is
on the program and will help bring
the Brunswick district to the front.

Trustee Gibson had number Of

problem. The other members took
it up and the discussion was general.
Engineer Frudenberger of the
Utility Commission quoted some
figures and facts relative to the
problem. and it seems that a tower
and tank holding 10000 gallons is
feasible and can be made frost proof
This seems to be the favored plan
The tank would be set high enough
to run the water into the mains of
the Water Company. and the reser-
voir holding this amount of water
almost inside the city limits would
prevent any serious loss by friction
and give a direct pressure that would
combat any fire that might occur in
this city.
The fact that insurance rates are
very high, owing to the present con-
ditiOns was cited. In case of more
adequate service insurance would be
materially decreased.
The question of cost is the prob
lem, and while no definite figures
have been submitted, they will be
when the time comes No one will
object to better fire protection, and
the Water Company would without
doubt lend its share of assistance.
The scheme is worth the effort and
the trustees have stirred up a live
question.

As the day nears election the IN
terest taken in the coming senatorial
election spreads. The fact that Key
Pittlnan, the Democratic nominee is
we'll known outside OF this State, and
most favorably, continues to be evi-
denced. During the past ten days
many endorsements of his candidacy
have been received from men high i'll
party ranks, who believe in the elec-
ton oi Democrat to help swell the
ranks and support President Wilson
i'll his administration. The following
was received by Clay 1'alman yes
terday and given the press:
NEW YORK. Aug 2o.-Congrat-
ulations to the Democrats OF Ne

Mr.. McAdoo is vice-chairman of

partment, based on the slaughter OF
204,820 animals.
An analysis Of the figures given by

made but three cents profit on dressed
meat of each steer killed while the fat
of each animal yielded profit of AZ
cents.
The profit on hides was 81 cents a
head and IS cents profit was obtained
from the glue manufactured from the
hoofs of each steer The profit from
the fat was II times that yielded by
the dressed beef and the profit from
