QUESTIONS MANS SANITY

Osvaldo Garcia, a Spaniard
claiming to be from New York is
lodged at the county Jail pending
a decision as to his sanity. He has
been working at Death and Wells
for some time for the Western Pa
cifjc but of late has acted queerly
and he was brought to Elko a day
or two ago in order that his sanity
might be tested. Doctors Hood and
West, the county physicians have
examined the man but have not
made any official report to the
court yet. The man if sane will
likely be deporIed.

DEVELOPS GOOD NINE

G De Lay of Carlin is in town
today. Mr. De Lay is manager of
the Alaska Group of mines owned
bv the Alaska Development Co op.
Grating at Lone Mountain. He is
loading q car at Elko today of what
is probably the highest grade of
lead-silVer ore ever shipped from
Nevada. The ore is sep arated into
two grades, high grade and low
grade. The high grade runs 555
OF. silver Of the value 1927, ,46 per
ton with 62 per cent in lead of the
value of $48. The second grade
runs 248 OF in silver and 66 per
cent lead the total of which is
S2O0.50
Mr. De Lay is shipping q car
every fifteen days and expects to
double the capacity in q short
time. The Alaska Improvement
Company is close corporation and
there is no stock for sale at any
price 1t is a genuine mining pro-
position and is getting its values
out of the ground by latest and
most up-to-date methods 1t is not
a stock selling proposition and
there will not be any offered for
sale. Elko county should be proud
of such methods and such valuable
sh piping mines in her midst. This
is said to be the highest grade of
ore now being shipped on the Paci-
fic coast Mr. De Lay is to be con-
graduated on being ut the head of
such valuable proper ty and is also
to be congratulated on the conser-
vativc and business like manner in
which he is handling the same.
This is the third shipping mine on
Lone Mountain The Ely Con owns
and operates two producing copper
mines there.

BANKERS OFFER PRIZES
FOR CORN GROWING CLUBS
Georgetown Men viii Dispense viii
Calendar Advertising to Carry
Out Plan.

Calendar advertising Will be dispens
ed with by the bankers Of Georgetown
this year, says the Louisville Herald
and the money usually spent along that
line will be given by the bankers ir
prizes to the Boys Corn Growing club
OF Scott county. Commissioner of Agri
riculture Newman recently received Q
communication from the bankers OF
Georgetown stating that such action
had been decided upon at a meeting OF
the bankers. As a result OF this action
about $500 from that source will be
given In prizes.
This seems to be sane and sensible
thing to do. Calendar advertising
brings inadequate returns for the mon
ey Invested. The banks of this state
are spending $4,000 or $4,000 annual.
ly for calendars, and except in rare
cases this is dead" expense. II was
all right years ago when banks first
began to use this medium of advertis.
ing, but now practically every busl.
ness house III every town passes Out
calendars to its customers. The~mer'
chant, the miller. the butcher. the
blacksmith and others make bid for
trade In this way. As result the
banks customers have more calendars
than they know what to do with and
for that reason none of them are prop
erly appreciated. We venture the as.
sertion that the lead of the George
town bankers will be followed by the
bankers all over the state.

father keeps his children SO at a

sort of a monarch in the family.
They feel no familiarity with him.
They fear him and respect him, and
