1t pays to advertise.


The Tribune received several
weeks ago a letter. dated Asheville,
North Carolina. written on mono
grained stationery and signed
"(Miss) Grayce Acheson," inviting
respectable men of Goldfeld be-
tween the ages of % and 35 years to
write to "a lonely girl of nineteen
who is refined and educated" The
letter contained the request that it's
contents be briefly published and, in
compliance Herewith. the Tribun.
printed excerpts from it in a con-
scientious effort to assist the young
lady, who purported to be the signer,
in securing a life partner.
That there are among the readers
of the Tribune manageable young
men who are anxious to become
benedicks and need only be helped a
little to sum up courage sufficient to
pop the question" is evident from
he following letter, dated Asheville,
N. c., Dec. 20, 1913, and received
by the Tribune today, from Miss
Mabel Grace Acheson, who says some
of her school friends played a joke
on her. Miss Acheson's letter, in full,
follows:
Il have reviewed several letters
from young men of your town which
they state are in answer to a matri-
monial advertisement printed in your
paper, supposed to have written by
me.
Now. permit me to state that the
letter o received in regard to the
advertisement was SEM by some of
my school friends for a joke on me.
| have no criticisms to offer in regard
to you or your paper, for I see YOU
are not to blame, but l hope and
trust your gallantry will permit O
to make a complete retraction of the
most embarrassing article"

Support for Promotion Com
mittee, Fairgrounds, Merit
System in Administration

Two planks in the Republican coun-
ty platform monopolized practically all
OF the discussion il the county con-
vention last night, but even so, pro-
gress was so rapid that in the two and
half hours from 7:30 to 10 O'Clock
the delegates gathered in the Makai
pavilion of the Young hotel finished
the document in hand and adopted 1t
for the coming municipal campaign.
The reason for the rapid progress
was that every body wanted the same
thing, differing only in the detail as to
how to get it.
The discussion centered on the front.

opposition to either plank and the de-
bate was as to the wording of the
plahks in order to get the greatest
effect.

cans. At 1880 last night the commit.
tee was ready to report and the con-
yention got down to business.
The first plank read was that de-
manding the Inauguration of the merit
system in city and county administra-
ton, and IT went through with vigorous
unanimity. Plank after plank passed
the convention, which was sitting as
committee of the whole, with little
change except in minor wording.
The frontage tax plank caused most
OF the debate. 1t was objected that
the original draft had two faults
it did not specify definitely enough
what the supervisors or the property
owners should do, and 1t failed to en-
phasize the good roads idea.
This lack, pointed out by Robert w.
Breckons with the proposal by him of
a substitute plank, precipitated good
natured but warm discussion.
Clifford Kimball made an effective
speech declaring that the Republican
county platform ought to have ring
ing plank on good roads. Its the
most important subject before the Peo.

ever, and although it is not sponting
oil high in the air as it did early in
its career, it is still an interesting
sight. The crater, which filled with
oil some weeks ago, and has held
down the flow ever since, still has the
appearance of lake and covers an
area of several hundred feet.
The well is producing from 5000
to $4,000 barrels day. Tests show
from 25 to 40 per cent emulsion, but
as this is easily separated from the
oil, the cost OF handling the fuel is
not heavy. Much of the oil clears IL

weeks or so. The oil which Is al
lowed to clear while standing and
that which is being treated at the
clarifying plants on the lease is being

the crater TO the sunaps, where 1t is
either allowed to settle and clarity

at the present time are to rent the

the performance at Iona and every
body said that II was the best thing
