In All Mining Enterprises In
This Field.
Season Just Opening Promises to
be the Banner One For
This District.

The huor spar, lead and zinc
mining interests in and around
Marion are in a stronger position
today than ever before. In other
words, the effeavescing frothy
period has besn pissed. Legiti-
mate business methods combined
with intelligence in mining have
taken the place of the earlier
days with all of their absurdities
of statements regarding this Sec
ton of the state and its mineral
resources.
Flurr spar, zinc and lead min
ing in western Kentucky is not
a poor mans game, the mining
of ores and mineral here not only
requires patience and pluck but
a good strong hank account.
Given these requisites, the re-
turns are as sure as in any in
dustrial enterprise known in this
country.
The past few years have
proven that in the counties Of
Crittenden and Livingston great
veins of these ores and mineral
exist. 1t has also been proven
that with proper facilities as re-
CARDS mining and preparing the
ore for market the demand is
constant and the money returns
are large enough to declare
superb dividends where the
capitalization is not excessive.
The situation has so entirely
changed in the past twelve
months that the "Record-Press"

Committee Firds All OF County's
Property Which Was Re-

We the undersigned committee
appointed to investigate the
charge against Geo. T. Drury,
former keeper of the CrittenGen
county Poorhouse, said charge
being made that there was 210
sheets left at said Poorhouse
when said Drury turned said
Poorhouse over to his successor,
and that there had been bought
for said Poorhouse one bolt of
brown domestic for the purpose
of making sheets and that said
purchase was Of recent date and
there was no new sheets there or
any sheets. Now we, II. S.
Wheeler and A. S. Hard being
appointed by the Fiscal court 10
investigate said charge fino that
there are now at the Poorhouse
13 sheets and find that 2 old
sheets and 2 new sheets were
carried away from said poor
house by a pauper that had been
placed with a private family, and
we further ind that said poor
house keeper caused 70 be made
for the inmates Of said poor
house the following garments:
Six gowns, two each for the
following persons who were

find that the brown domestic
which was used for making above
named garm ents amounts to A
yards, same being the bolt of
domestic purchased by said
Drury for the use of said poor

ton in presence of witness under

true and groundless and that

3rd The net profits earned from your patronage to
this Bank is not sent to Stockholders who live
outside this State, in other Counties of this
State, but it is paid to who live in this
County; and the money becomes available at
I once, Tor the use OF any man in the County who
needs to borrow it,

servative and successful conduct of their own

9TH Alike all State Banks in Kentucky, this bank

Secretary of State, but We make no boast that
we have been found honest 1t Is the Duty Of :
officials OF a bank to see that the affairs Of the
bank honestly conducted. We claim no :
special distinction for having performed our duty.
9Th. This bank is not a United States Depos 2

the Postal Savings Bank law, the Postmaster is

post with that bank seventy-five to ninety 3
dollars provided the bank pays the Govern Il
ment 2X percent per annum interest.
This Bank pays home depoSors Two percent on y

the advertisement of having "United States e

enough value to justify the paying Of higher II

lutely as he is ordered. The average
man among US. of whatever kind or
description, has just Intelligence
enough to imagine that it covers more
ground than it can naturally stretch
itself over.
That is the occasion of much mis-
chief on the part of men occupying a
Subordinate position. and in the case
of railway employees, results in substl-
tutinng a hasty and risky judgment of
their own in place of regula tiOns that
have been carefully thought out by
men who have a wider grasp and
keener sense of contingencies
A second cause of lax enforcement
lies in the fact that railway labor or
ganizations have now become 20
strong that in many cases the railway
management stands more IN awe q
the unions than the unions do OF the
management so that when q locomo-
tive engineer, for instance, has been
guilty of an accident through viola
ton of one of the rules Of the road
the union rallies to his defence
The Unions Responsibilities.
The grievance committee, strong IN
the consciousness of the strength OF
the union, fights It out with the man
agement, weak in its fear OF an i'm
pending strike, and the probable issue
will be that by the time the killed and
wounded are in their graves or under
treatment in the hospital the engineer
is back on his seat and the lOnS-suI-

Nothing need be said antagonistic to
