THE ANNUAL CLEANUP.


Spring - the season of year when all
nature is arousing herself, awakening
to fresh life with renewed vigor and
augmented enthusiasm; the season when
she is arraying herself in new attire,
presenting a freshened. radiant visage
to the world.
courage and assist dame nature in her
endeavor to assume clean and whole
some countenance, q smiling face, such
as will awaken joyous response in the
heart Of every observer.
1t is the duty Of every one Of Us to help
in making our city more clearly, more
presentable and more healthful. If
every one of us would do our part,
attend to the removal ting of our own
home, our own yards and alley or street
front. What a wonderful change would
soon be wrought in the sightliness Of
our city
Everyone should collect all rubbish
that has accumulated during the long
winter months and either burn it or
have it carted away to the proper
dumping grounds Everyone should
clean house and their adjoining yards
at the same time. Where there is a
large yard with barn on lot, and. per-
haps out houses, they should all be
thoroughly cleaned and kept sanitary.
This is the only really efficient way
clean out and clean up all, house, out
houses and yards thoroughly and syste-
matically at the same time. First, the
home should be renovated, thoroughly,
completely. Neglected corners, closets,
garrets or cellars contain disease-pro-
dueing germs, SO in reality such places
are the most dangerous if neglected.
Following the comprehensive cleaning
Of the house, the barn and out houses
should be assaulted in thorough man
ner. Any refuse dumps ash piles and
especially manure heaps should be cart
ed away at this time Of the year and all
signs or remnants &C them entirely re-
moved. In the absence of a manure
box, one with a close fitting cover (pre-
ferably of metaD TO keep out flies
should be provided. Any holes or low
places where water will form in pools
should be covered up and beware Of the
old fashioned rain barrel, breeder of
| flies.
The benefits that accrue to a com
munity under wise sanitary regulations
cannot be estimated in dollars and
cents There is much room for i'm
provoment in our city Just walk along
any of our back streets and look into
the back yards. Tin cans, old shoes,
and rubbish Of every description meets
our gaze. Some of the yards back OF
the stores are chronically cooked up
with debris that offends thel eye and
often too the olfgctory organ.
| So let us get together and put our
house in order" our yards and our al
leys. Let each do his duty and do il
new Let our slogan be Clean Up.

Health Officer.

RICH STRIKE IS RE- :.
PORTED IN HENRIETTA
(From Wednesdays Daily.)

(From Wednesdays Daily.)
Returning yesterday from the
Henrietta mining camp on Big Bug
creek, Col. J. C. Rankin impaired
the information that development
during the past month had exceed
ed all expectations, and the best
showing in the history of the prop
erty was now established.
The operating company, is COM
posed of Englishmen, with Lon D.
Hall in charge as general man
-ager. The driving of a drift on
the Invincible claim of the group,
and the prosecuting of the forma-
ton from that working has deter
mined a ive-foot ore body in a
blind ledge that runs heavy in gold
with small copper values in a sui
phide ore.
The purpose OF the management
was to tap the Henrietta vein at
a depth of approximately 300 feet.
The unexpected has followed in
this exploration as. has occurred in
so many other cases Of mining
work in other fields. Col. Rankin
stated that this method of handling
the Henrietta was advanced many
years ago by various managers, and
the final solution CT the problem
in practically opening up the prop
erty is noteworthy one, which
verihes the wisdom of the expendi-
ture being made.
Exploration is to go ahead or
the Invincible, as we'll will drift
ing begin in the new ore body and
the mother lode reached later by
the crosscut being driven. In years
gone by work on this property was
centered to the north side of the
range but the shifting of Develop
menr to the south side of the old
workings has superseded and the
results are gratifying. The mill on
the ground will again be started up
III a short time.

START CLEANUP OF
DELINQUENT TAXES
(From Wednesdays Daily.)

w > }
County Tax Collector F. a. Rog-
ers filed ffty-three actions for the
collection of delinquent taxes yes
terday in the Superior Court. This
batch is but the advance guard of
several hundred more to follow.
A general cleanup of delinquen-
cies, ranging as far back as 1909
is proposed. The treasurer's of
fee is compelled, in accordance
with the law, to file these actions
against all delinquent Taxpayers.
The 1913 taxes became due on the
second Monday in December OF
1913. Hence the latest of the de-
linquent taxes are at least 6months
overdue. A general cleanup has
not been in evidence for several
years past, consequently this years
activities will assume a wider range
than ever before. Most of the de-
are attached to mining
properties.

ATHENS, June 12-The Greek
government today sent vigorous
note to Turkey demanding the ces-
sation OF prosecutions of Greeks in
Turkey and the repair of the dam
age caused them and their inter

A warning to Turkey, which fell
little short of a formal declaration
of hostilities, was uttered today by
Premier Venizelos Of Greece in the
chamber of deputies, speaking on
the treatment of Greek subjects in
Turkey.
The premier's attitude showed
that the tension between Greece
and Turkey is nearing the break

minent. He found difficulty in re-
straining his language when be
spoke of the treatment of Greeks

greeted the premier. who said that
