TELLS truth CON-
CFRN|NC JARB|DCE

In order to get real, hot inside facts,
occasionally it is necessary to go to
zone of the disgruntled, says the
Herald-RepubIican, and the following,
signed by can Occasional Contribut-
orr in an eastern mining journal rel
ative to conditions at Jarbidge, New,
smacks of that sort:
In the past year Jarbidpe has de
veloped somewhat, but far from the
extent expected. At the present time
it may be said to have passed into a
state of innocuous desuetude, from
which cataleptic condition it may re-
vive in two months or it may take
two years. For the present there is no
money in the district, very little work
going on, no chance to make any
money, and little prospect of collecting
any bills. Many people are leaving.
The trouble with Jarbidge has not
been with the mines so much as with
the owners, who have displayed so
much stupid ignorance and greediness,
or have attempted too much work on
no funds, and checks seem to have
been the regular working capital of
most of the companies, which has left
the district in a very bad state fnan-
cially. Besides the many small outfits
which have paid off their laborers with
checks drawn against a bank with lit
tie or no money to their account, the
two big companies, with their all but
useless mills, suddenly suspended a
short time ago. each of them having an
unpaid labor accounts of $1,000 to $S,-
000, which is still unpaid.
The Worst Setback.
But perhaps the worst setback is
the greed of the property owners who
want to get fortune for a fair pros
pect and who thus prevent any, solid
mining men from securing a foothold.
They think because they find few
pieces of high grade ore in prospect
hole that they have a bonanza mine,
and Immediately want mine price for
it. There have been some good people
in Jarbidge who were favorably i'm
pressed with the prospects and were
willing to take hold on any reasonable
basis, but who refused to invest when
they were asked such unreasonable
prices as 1925, 900 for one ten-fot hole.
S250,000 for hree-fourths interest
in three ten-foot cuts, $150,000 for an
eight tenths interest in two ten-foot
holes, and similar equally impossible
prices.
George WingfeId did take hold of
two of the good showing properties,
even at these high prices, one of them
running up to over half million. But
then it is to be presumed that he
counted on his previous acquaintance
with the owners to get mines later
at price compatible with the devel-
opment After spending $4,000 in de-
velopment on the two properties and
opening only about $150,000 worth of
ore of a fair milling grade, he wished
to have the price brought down to a
reasonable one, and meeting with re-
fusal, he deeamped. And moneyed men
viii stay out and wait until prices
come down to somewhere near the
probable value of the properties. This
will also necessitate that the owners
come to realization of the fact that
the veins are only of moderate size
and that the ore is of a $l2 milling
grade, rather than a 5000 bonanza
quality, as they have thought.

Parker s Carnival.

A carnival without a Trained
Wild Animal Show would be like
strawberries without cream,
something would be wanting and
those who visit the annual
show will get their fill of>amuse-
ment. A mirth provoker is
"The Dragons Grabbo." Here
you will laugh if there is a good
laugh in you and if you cannot
enjoy yourself in the Dragons
domicile it's a case for the
doctor,
Space does not permit the full
list of attractions being given in
detail, but mention will be made
oi them at a future date IN
these columns. There are ar
fists of the colored race, real
old plantation singers and dan
GERS who rejoice in the euphon-
eous title of "The Blackville
Strutters,' such productions as
"The Hippodrome "The Shad-
ow of the Cross and 1.-The An
mex" where seven big shows are
to be seen under the same roof.
These and the mechanical amuse-
ment devices, such as the Ferris
Wheel, Carry-Us-All, Ocean
Wave, Foolish House and many
smaller ones will be described
later.
OF course every carnival must
have a queen to preside over the
festivities, and Parker's is no
exception to the rule. A queen
they must have and the method
to be employed to obtain one is
as follows:
Any young lady can be nomi-
mated to fill this enviable posi-
ton, the more the merrier, she
will be elected by popular vote
by her admirers and friends. The
votes will cost one cent each and
envelopes representing ballots
can be obtained at most of the
principal stores. Just enclose
the amount of money in the
envelope and write the name and
number of votes it represents on
the outside in the printed spaces
left for that purpose and de-
post it in the ballot boxes which
will be found at A. Walks Jew
elery Store and Day e Stone
streets. Now is the time to

SMOKE WOULD NOT HURT HER,

The Big Four train from Dayton
was crowded coming to indianapolis.
At Anderson a colored couple got
on the train, and after a vain effort
to find a seat the man opened the
door leading to the smoker, in which
there were several vacant seats. The
woman got inside the door before
she discovered that they we're in the
smoker.
'This is the smoker. We don't
want to go in here" said her escort,
evidently her husband.
81 CANT hep that" he replied. 81
wants to sit down." And then, as
an after thought, he added "Smoke
CANT hurt your complexion none"
