County Seat Shall Remain
Not Single Valid Reason For Its Removal
Many Reasons For Its Retention In Pioch

oehe could be selected. 1t cannot |
be disputed that at least at present /
mining is the principal industry in
the County, and Phoebe is the cen
ter of that, As far as the agricultur-
a. sections are concerned, Phoebe is
as centrally located as any other
town. 1t is just as convenient to
the Fahranasat valley as Is Caliente
and it is much more convenient to
the farmers Of Lake, Spring, gle
hammond and Rose Valleys, Panaca.

iente would be the comparatively few
in Clover Valley and the Meadow Val
! ley wash. Before 1t is hastily re-
| moved, some thought should be given
% th1 future possibilities Of the var
| ious sections Of the County. And
we might mention here that if by
any inadvertance the County Seat
should be taken from Phoebe this
year, the outlook in the camp assur-
es us that we would have no trouble
in bringing It back to Phoebe at
the nsx. ensuing election, which woul
mean an immense loss to Caliente.
/ With the future possibilities In
view, there is still stronger argument
T. In, 20 ,f he
ente has nothing to compare with
the mining prospects OF Bristol At

al possibilities OF Lake valley and
vicinity, Deiamar is dead in compari
son to what it used TO be; and there
IS very little hope for any large en-
serprlses in the Meadow Valley wash
And if new Court House II
ever decided on, let us have a littl,
pride about it. Let 1t be not only
as good, but far superior to thu
present one. Just now, with on
heavy bonded indebtedness we can
not think OF asking the taxpayers 0
the county to assume any additions

Dynamite Attached to Car.

Nationwide interest has been excited
during the past week in a certain freight
car which was loaded with paper here
at the paper mills of the Wyman Flint
Sons company for Philadelphia. When
1t reached Philadelphia, and after being
unloaded, there were found attached to
the car wheels IS sticks of dynamite, or
enough to have blown a freight train and
a large amount of contiguous property
into atoms had it been exploded as was
evidently intended by the action of the
wheels. At first it was reported that the
car went through Lawrence, Mass, and
that it was probable the dynamite was
placed on it there, but later tracing
shows that it went down the Connecticut
river from here and via Greenfield, and
did not go to Lawrence at all. Detec-
tives are very busy at all points now
trying to ascertain where the deadly
stuff was procured, where the car was
when it was placed on the trucks, and
who was the fiend interested in such
work. Thus far the searth has been I'M
awaiting in unravelling the mystery. 1t
is not thought that it was placed before
the car left here, but all clues are being
carefully followed to see who was re-
sponsble, and what influences would
have been subserved had the stuff been
exploded with deadly result to human
life, as well as to property.

that he ought to receives a little more
than one-fifth of sum which. If placed

proud of them. Not only the King

est foes of life, diseases find allies in
the very elements as colds, influenza
catarrh, the grip, and pneumonia do in
the stormy month of March. The best
way that we know of to guard against
these diseases is to strengthen the sys-
