No editor living ever willingly
missed a news item, but no editor
can be everywhere to see and hear
everything and as a consequence
some news items are missed. 1t is
never done Intentionally, even though
some of you think SO. You like to
see your name In the paper, and we
like to put it there If you do anything
worth mentioning, II you have COM

tor II he does not mention these
things. Rather pity him and send in
your news by letter, by telephone, or
tell 1t to him personally or let some
Of your folks tell him. News Is al
ways acceptable, and is always gladly
received by the editor. Remember
this. Don't forget it next time, but
II you have q news item, tell us about

Remember the editor is always your

a blank and he says nothing about it.
II you do anything worth while he
lauds you to the skies, and being

Big Nugget from Rich Old Pierce.

G. V. Friedman came in from the
Pierce district Wednesday, bringing
with him one OF the finest mineral
specimens that has been seen in this
region in many years The specimen
is piece of quartz containing gold, or
rather, it is big nugget with some
quartz in it. The piece weighs 20
ounces, and the gold in it is estimated
to be worth over $500. Friedman
would not tell where he got the aurif-
erous rock, but is going back and look
for the companion piece in few days.
This find recalls the early days in the
Pierce district, when fortunes were
made in few months, and proves that
the early day miners did not rob Erich
Old Pierce of all its wealth. .9
