PEN COMMISSION 1 CONSIDERING BIDS
TWENTY FARMS OFFERED
RANDOLPH COUNTY PLANTA. TON ATTRACTS SPECIAL
 ATTENTION.

Little Rock, Nov. 3.-The peniten- tiary commission has under consider ation twenty bids for the sale of a farm for the use of the white state convicts. It has long been a recog- nized fact that the Lincoln county farm is not adapted to white convicts and that a separate farm is needed.
 One of the farms that is receiving attention at the hands of the commis- sion is the M. M. Carter plantation, adjoining Pocahontas, in Randolph county, the proposition having been made by Representative w. A. Jack son. The farm contains 2623 acres, of which 2117 arcres are in cultiva- tion in cotton and corn. Practically all of it is tillable and it lies at the foothills of the Ozarks, in salubri- ous climate. It has frontage of nearly six miles along Black river. The farm is offered to the state at S7O per acre, or a total of $1S3,960. The commission will examine this and other propositions before making a deal.

URGES DONATION OF
 BOOKS 10 NEGROES
SUPT. WOMACK SAYS GOOD LIT FEATURE IS NEEDED BY
 BLACK RACE.

Editor Log Cabin Democrat:
 1 wish to do something in a helpful way for our negro children. We are giving them a school-a better school than one will find in most towns-and yet we are not doing for them all we might easily do. And we owe it to ourselves as Christian people to do all we can for those dependent upon us
 But granted that we owe them nothing It still remains true that we should help them. They are here to stay. They will be intimately con- nected with us throughout the years. They will do our cooking. They will nurse and play with our children. If they are clean and moral, well and good If they are otherwise, we suf- fer We must take care of them for our own sake.
 But what can we do? you ask. l wish to ask you to do one thing only. If you will go into their homes and use your eyes you will see at glance that there is little or nothing there to amuse or instruct the little ones. No picture books for the baby, no charm ing nursery tales and jingle books for the older ones just beginning to read, no little folks papers or other liter ature for those still older. How can the negro child employ his spare time pleasantly and helpfully?
 The same is true at their school. No library. No charming story tell ing at chapel time or during the lan- guage lesson. Why? The teachers,

George A. DeLiere and l.. w. John son came Tn from Brownvllle last night and report that the road from Valentine to the Copper Giant is now complete. all repairs having been made. The company will now be able to send in its machinery, and as soon as installed the work of sinking 100 feet below the present level will be commenced. The company will place many betterments on the line and will crosscut the vein at every favor- able point. The Copper Giant is one of the most promising properties in the county and owing to the fact that it's gangue is largely silica will provide converter lining for the big United Verde plant.
 The big strike of lead ore in the Coppervile mines is still the talk of the hour, and the opening of the vein at other points is now under way. It is believed that the big vein of lead ore will be found backing up the great Siamese vein throughout the whole len gth of the 100 feet of drift. Cross cuts have been driven across the vein about eighty feet apart and these will be the basis for levels throughout the mine.
 H. E. Woods and wife came in from their properties at Tom Reed Wednes- day last and departed to Los Angeles. Mir. Woods has been working on the mines the past six months and is said to have opened nice showing of ore. He reports that the mines of that sec- tion are looking well all mine owners being busily employed opening their veins with a view to the extraction of milling ores.

Peachy vs. Frisco Gold Mines.

Judge Morrow, U. S. Circuit Judge of this district ad interum, this week put the final quletus on the action of Fred s. Peachy, who was attempting to get away with the Frisco Gold mines. Peachy nearly two years ago, made an attempt to relocate the mines operated by the Frisco Gold mines company, which were then actively worked by the company, alleging that there had been an abandonment of the properties when a relocation was made year or so before he appeared on the scene. In the action brought before the District Court the contention was made by counsel on the part of plain, tiff Peachy that an owner could not relocate his mining claim, but that in attempting to do so he virtually aban- doned it. Defendant company demur- red to the complaint on the ground that no showing had been made that plaintiff had ever initiated a right to question the motives of defendant in the relocation of the mining claims, and it was on this issue that the mat ter was settled in that court by the sustaining of demurrer. The cause was appealed and the ruling of the lower court sustained. Then an ap, peal was taken to the circuit court and Judge Morrow took the same view as did the trial court. The mines cover- ed by the controversy are situated twenty miles west of Kingman and are among the greatest bodies of ore ever opened in any country. It is said that the value of all the ores now in sight, and there is estimated to be more than a million tons. is above twelve dollars to the ton. The vein lies at an angle of about twenty degrees from horizontal, and has but small amount of overburden, which would make them an excellent steam shovel or quarry proposition. In places the vein is more than sixty feet th.ck, all the ore being of milling value. The con- pany has mill on the property capa, be of handling nearly one hundred tons of ore daily, and this capacity is being added to by the installation of larger and more uptodate machinery.
 The settlement of the cause will al low the company to secure ample capital for the further exploitation of the properties that so far have been unopened, except in small way, and the enlarging of the milling plant to fully 300 tons daily.

Walter Myers and w. E. Frost were Tn from Wallapai Springs last Tues day and Wednesday. Mr..

Some new ore has been found in the vein. which is commonly accepted as platinum, but they are awaiting tests on the ore at one of the San Francesca laboratories before they can be satisfied with the local cIassi ication. The ore in the vein still carries high values in silver and gold.

Rich Strike of Gold and Copper.

Thursday last J. F. Miller, a well known miner of the Cedar section, was in Kingman and reports that he has opened splendid showing of gold and copper ore on his m ming claims in the Deluge Wash country, close to Copper Canyon. He has sunk a shaft on one of the velns to depth of thirty feet and took ten tons of good ore from this opening. Assays from the ore gave results as high as 3l4S in gold, silver and copper. Some of the ore gave results as high as 56 per cent copper, while the lowest result was eleven per cent in the red metal The gold values predominate in the ore
 Mir. Miller believes he has one Of the best things in that section, the ore being of a shipping grade from the surface. He will continue work on the mines to depth of one hundred feet. from which point he will drift on the vein. The veins in his claims are exposed for more than half mile on the surface and can be reached in many places by adt drifts He is of the opinion that the mines of that sec. ton are sure to make the district one of the most popular in the county.
