We're required to take up the complete

There were none to say word in behalf
of the students. The bill went through
easily. Some time ago attention was

Delegate Hugh A. White of Rockbridge

GLASS NOT TOO WISE
AS TO RESERVE CITIES
His Guess of What Centers Will Be
Designated as Good as
Anybody Else's.
Pretends to No Inside knowledge of
Purpose of Organization Commit
tee, and Is No Prophet.

Representative Carter Glass, chairman
of the House committee on banking and
currency, who guided the currency bill
through the lower House of Congress,
does not assert inside information or
assume the inspiration of prophecy as
to what cities will be selected for cen
ters OF regional reserve districts by the
organization committee, entrusted with
putin gthe currency law into effect.
Recognized as having much to do with
the currency legislation. and regarded as
one who can speak with authority on
the subject, any expression of his opn-
ion. he seems justified in the conclusion,
is viewed generally as an expert ana
well advised statement. acceptable at
face value. But Representative Glass
declares his guess is no better than any
other mans guess.
There seems to be a total misconcep-
ton of what | said Friday night CON
cernilg the establishment of regional re-
serve banks under the provisions OF the
federal reserve act he said last night.
and as a consequence of this mlsappre-
hension | have been kept busy answering
telephonic inquiries as to the source OF

1T WAS simply explaining 10 the au-

way, suggested that We might assume
that banks would be established at GER

that banks would surely be established
at these centerS of commerce, as of course
they will be. But in mentioning more
than a dozen other cities, | distinctly
stated that anything said in regard to
them was sheer conjecture, and that any
body's guess was as good as another's.

Want State Convention.

Legislators and others prominent in the
state organization forces are discussing
the question of holding a democratic con-
vention here at an early date-possihly
during May. Several of them have been
seen by The Stars correspondent, and to
him they declare that such step is nee
essary They saS the party should have
conference and determine on issues for
the coming campaign. to advise and pre-
pare such declarations as are essential to
the welfare of the party and to take steps
to see that the party lines are unbroken
by assaults from outside or inside the
party. None of the men seen is affil-
lated with the progressive faction, and
they did not make any reference to that
branch of the democratic party. But
sentiment is unanimous for a convention
to discuss party matters and to prepare
for the congressional campaign.
Perhaps before the present session of
the general assembly not a score of
persons outside of the confines of Green
county had ever heard of Richard Snow.
Today his name is on the lips of many
of the people of the state and his record

M'CABE GETS INTO SULPHIDES IN HIS
 WINZE FROM TUNNEL
REACHED AT WATER LEVEL; IS THE DEEPEST WORKING IN
 ORE IN THE HUAcHucAs.

J. C. McCabe came in yesterday from his mining property in the Huachucas with further good news in connection with ore development which he is bringing about there.
 Considered of first importance is the fact that MT. McCabe has en- tered sulphides at depth of 12O feet in a winze sunk from the tunnel. about 50 feet from the breast. The latter is in about 450 feet. Depth of the sulphides in the winze is about i50 feet This is the deepest develop. ment that has ever been made in ore in the Huachucas and is given much added importance by this reason.
 With the change to sulphides, wa ter has come in. Mir McCabe expects from the present volume of the flow that it will be necessary to put in a pump. The bottom of the winze is considered to be al tho water level. with secondary enrichment following.
 Samples of the sulphldes they are working in in the winze were brought to the city by MT McCabe for assay. The ore looks very good indeed. As. say returns. however. will alone give line on its value Indications arc good for a large body.
