Good News from Rich
GuICh

Recent developments at the Rich
Gulch are a little more than wholly
satisfactory Work there reached 4
point several weeks since where the bic
vein towards which the management
has been devoting their energies, was
reached.
1t has all along been confidently ex-
pected that something big would result
from the cutting Of this vein, christened
the Mollie Pitcher, and we are able to
state authoritatively that these antici-
pations have been more than justified.
In fact the strike made is the most inn
portant thing to Silver City that has
occurred IN mining circles for many
years.
Work is now being done drifting on
the big vein, which shows a width of
fifty feet so far, and it will be opened
up as fast as possible.
The mill will be started to work this
summer, when big crew will be en-
ployed.
The management of this property is
the most conservative of any in this
district and have little to- say at this
time, but we expect in later issue to
give further information on this matter.
which we believe to be fraught with
tldings OF inestimable value to the camp.

Will stOddard re Elected

The school election on Monday proved
surprise, inasmuch as Notwithstanding
the fact that there was an apparent lack
OF anybody to take much interest in it
or offer themselves as candidates, vet
the election developed into one of the
scrappiest affairs in the history Of the
board
Early in the day there was but one
candidate, s. D. Maxon, His tickets
were around early in the morning and
things went along until nearly time for
opening the polls at one O'Clock. Then
the report spread that the election of
Mr. Maxon meant the dismissal of Mrs.
Shea and the friends of that little LADY
got busy. Will stoddard shied bis hat
into the ring and got out tickets for re-
election.
From this time until the closing Of
the polls there was something doing
every minute. Dr. Heer led the Maxon
forces and made gallant stand. But it
was no use. Mrs. Shea had booster in
every kid in town 'cept one, and Mr..
Stoddard was given a three to one vote.
Score: stoddard, So; Maxon, %, skid
doo
The special tax was voted yes with
only two dissentients.
