Elsewhere in this paper mention is made OF Jack

The Rockford Republic of Sept. IS says editoriay
concerning law enforcement:
Having been arrested a city charge and fined
500 selling liquor contrary the ordinance and the
the majority of Rockford people, Ed Malone has
arrested charged with violating the
state law and he will have to stand trial for that.

A Chicago daily OF last week says that horse meat

For several weeks Mr.. John Lar
son was in the east in the interest
of mining affairs. One of the re-
suit of his trip was the taking over
of the War Dance on a lease and
bond. He got men of capital to
go in with him and raised all the
money necessary to install a new
plant of machinery on that rich
property. to sink the shaft five
hundred feet deeper and run levels
every fifty feet beginning at the
depth of $50 feet The running
of levels every fifty feet is necessi
tated on account of the rich ore
that is found in the War Dance.
Those who became Interested i'll the
property with Mr.. Larson investi-
gated thoroughly the various re-
ports of shipments that were avail
able and sent an attorney out here
to investigate the records and 9TH
er matters that would give as
surance of everything being right
and legal. Before beginning work
the collar of the shaft will be en-
closed with steel plate. The plant
will be operated by electricity.
The machinery is now being
hauled to the mine. During his
absence, Mr., Larson also arranged
for capital to carry out the plans
of development as laid out in the
Rockford and independence prop
critics that will result IN placing
them on a large paying shipping
basis. The showing of ore in these
properties is most encouraging
both on account of the size of the
streaks, their continuity and good
values. 1t is the ,olicy of the
stockholders to keep on developing
until the ore is blocked out in
large shipping quantities SO that
the shipments will be regu' ar.
The ore that will be shipped for
the present is that taken from de-
velopment work
