It is a time when public spirited men and women should sneak out and offer every suggestion

 It would be better still if sufficient interest is shown to call mass meet

 We are advised that the board will have another meeting in d few days to pass upon the resolution finally.

BLUFFTON ORE SHOWS
 GOLD TEN CENTS TON Assay Made in 1909 Showed S6 in Gold and 70 cents Ton in Silver From High Hill in Newton
 County.

Little Rock, April 24.-State Miner alogist J. T. Fuller has received from an assayist in St. Louis report on ore from the gold-mine at Bluffton Yell county, showing the presence of gold to the amount of ten cents ton.
 Commissioner Page has received a letter from M. B. Taylor, a gold pros pector, at Eago, in the Southwestern corner of Newton county, enclosing an essay made in October, 1909, showing S6 in gold and 10 cents a ton in silver, from ore found in that locality. The ore was an iron-looking slag found on top of one of the highest hills in Newton county. From the top of this hill down to the lime formation it is TOO feet. MT Taylor reports that at the surface rock it WAS fouad that gold showed at almost every test.
 In discussing this reported find of gold, MT. Fuller said: "You observe the assay was made five years ago. Had there been anything in it, some thing would have been done toward it's development in that time. Such an assay might be made from selected ore taken from Assure veins, but it is not at all likely that there is enough there or anywhere else in the state to pay for working"
