 Mohave County Miner: k. H. Dickie, who is operating mining property in the Silver Creek sec tion for Los Angeles and Pasadena associates, was in Kingman a few days ago on his way to the coast He brought with him samples of vanadium ore that is said to run above ten per cent. Other samples brought from the mines run high in gold. The shafts are being car ried down on the property and heavy hoisting machinery is to be installed. The finding of vanadium in the gold belt of the county is something unknown, but the assay CTS have given Mir. Dickie results in that metal.
 Mohave County Miner: Harold Hawks came in from the Temple camp last Thursday and is at tending to business in Kingman. He reports that the company own ing the property in that camp are working force of men and getting the development of the mines we'll under way. J. F. Shelly, of Shelly, Idaho, one of the large owners of the stock of the company, IS in charge of operations. The com pany has some excellent gold prop critics and is in a fair way to make good. A small mill was erected at the mine some time ago, but the company intends to get develop ment along sufficiently to ascertain whether water can. be had in the mines before trying out the mill ing qualities of the ore.
 Wickenburg Miner: The Vul- ture company proposes to solve the important problem of water supply by constructing a pipe line from the Hassayampa river, thus dispoS- ing of the matter once and for all The new pipe line will start from a point several miles below Wick enburg, where the Hassayampa, in it's westward sweep below the railroad bridge, makes it's nearest approach to the Vulture mine The water will be pumped to the top of bluff some distance from the river, and will run from that point by gravity to the Vulture camp. The reservoir on top of the bluff will consist of two of the largest tanks ever constructed IF the Wickenburg region, each being 36 feet in diameter by twelve feel high, and covered. The pipe line

 Mohave County Miner: Ralph Cameron, late delegate to Congress from Arizona, was a Kingman visitor this week. Ralph is promot- ing several mining deals in the county and is in a fair way to make them stick. Ralph Cameron is one of the best hustlers in the country and is sure sooner or later in pulling down big reward.
 Mohave County Miner: F. T.. Powell, who has the Iowa and other groups of mines in the Vivian sec tion under option, was Kingman visitor Thursday last, coming in from Los Angeles. The Iowa group under development is said to be showing up wonderfully we'll and the impression prevails that the mines will be among the great producers of the Mohave county gold belt.
 Prescott Courier: Word came to Prescott, Thursday, that the Com mercial Mining Company continue to strike it rich in their properties in Copper Basin. The word re- ceived is to the effect that in driv- ing a cross-cut from a winze, a body of exceedingly rich copper ore had been encountered. The new paystreak is said to carry much native copper, and it is estimated that it will assay at least forty per cent. copper.
 Prescott Courier: The Dunkirk group of mines, owned by H. P. Ward, of Grass Valley, have been taken over by L. c. Gould, of Indianapolis, and it is stated that extensive development will be com menced at an early date. A small force is now working and will mine ore for a test run. Mr. Gould has returned to his home to bring his family to Arizona. A shaft will be sunk to a depth of 15C feet, and levels run into an ore body which is 450 feet in length.

BANQUET
BIG SUCCESS

Last Saturday evening the Com

hours. The time was spent in eat

by Landlord Olson. About eighty

The answer to the third ques.
tion is already answered as we will
have at least $4,000 a year to

SS. y. Small's statement, made iIi
his Judith Gap Journal, the most
amount we have ever had spent on
roads in the eastern part Of
Meagher county is $7,4OO in any
one year. In the new county of
Wheatland we will have four times
that amount each year and not
pay any more in taxes.

TOWN OF OkA
IS GROWING.

We are reliably informed that
there will be a large elevator
erected at Okla this summer in
time to handle this seasons crop,
and there is also company con-
templating putting in a lumber
yard at that point, and in addition
to handling lumber will put in a
complete line IF farming machin-
cry and handle coal.
This, i'll addition to the store
and postoffice soon to be located
there, will give the farmers in that
section of the county d convenient
trading point, and Okla will be-
come strong bidder for the trade
of the territory south and south
east of the Gap, as it makes a
more convenient market for most
of the farmers in that territory
than does the Gap, and it now
looks as though Okla would in the
near future become a strong rival
of Judith Gap.

VIEW OF A
TAXPAYER

The creation of the County OF
Wheatland has raised considerable
discussion among the taxpayers OF
the proposed territory. The ques-.
tions Of most interest to them are:
I. What effect will the creation
of the new county have on our
tax rate?
2. Proximity to the county
seatg
Will we get more for our money
that we pay as taxese
, On looking over the assessed
valuation Of the county Of Meagher
I find it to be $8,3OO,OOO, and Of
the proposed new county to be
$5,3OO,OOO. The old county is re-
ceiving taxes on approximately
three million dollars more than
the county Of Wheatland will re-
ceive. The tax rate in Meagher
county is Is mills; four mills of
this goes into the school fund and
two and three-fourths mills in the
state fund, SO the county receives
eight and one-fourtll mills for it's
revenue. On $3O0,000,O0O, eight
and one-fourth mills will raise $685.
900. That is what the county Of
Meagher has for a revenue more
than the county of Wheatland.
Now if we can show where we can
save that $4,000 in the new coun-
ty, we have solved the question.
In the Clerk and Recorders Finan-
cial Report Of Nov. 80, 1911, we
4 find that Meagher county paid in
warrants IN III 1911 on these three
funds:
Road fund $2o,140
The Harlowton news. [volume] (Harlowton, Mont.) 1909-1914, 1912-03-29


Poor fund y 1906
Subtract from this total $4,000
extra revenue by Meagher county
over what Wheatland county will
receive and we have $27.O1O left
for the three funds in the new
county. / am sure l am only stat
ing facts that cannot be disputed,
that we never have had that
amount expended in these three
funds, in the territory that will
compose the county Of Wheatland
in any one year. Have we had
one-half that amount expendeds
We will also save in salaries pf
the county officers of the new
county over that in Meagher coun-
ty (Wheatland county will be 9th
class and Meagher county 5th) no
less sum than $S, $50. These sal
aries are fixed by the Statutes of
the State of Montana. If you will
take the time to refer to them yon
will find they are absolutely cor
rect. Add that amount to the
$27, ,O1O and we have $35,260 for
our road, bridge and poor funds.
Tt is estimated that $4,000 will
more than support the poor OF
Wheatland county, leaving $23,-
26O to be spent each year for roads
and bridges. That amount spent
on the roads in this territory will
give us better roads in five years
than any county in the state.
After thoroughly investigating the
expenditures Of the old county l
am satisfied that the county Of
Wheatland can be run on the same
tax rate as we have now, namely
Is mills.

tion is very easy. Each taxpayer
in the proposed new county will
