DAY OF COURT
TO CREATE CITIZENS
September I'd So Designated
by Judge Clementson.
Petition for Final Papers Must be Filed
With Clerk of the Court
Before June I'd

The enforcement of the naturaliza-
tion laws has been very strict of late.
and hundreds of men who have been
voting for years in the firm belief that
they were fully qualified citizens of
the United States, now find that they
are not and never have been such.
Think of such men as Alex. Ivey,
who left leg upon southern battle
field of the Civil War, James Treloar,
Thomas lockwood, Joseph Walker,
Geo. p. Goble and others of this city,
who have been voting for from 80 to
80 years, to find at this late date that
they must file petitions. produce wit
nesses ETC., and come into court to
prove their right to citizenship, either
because. through lax enforcement of
the law many years ago their fathers
failed to take out their second papers,
or through negligence of public
officials proper entries were not
made upon the record.
The law provides that the court
cannot issue citizenship papers to
any man within 80 days of a general
election, so such business cannot be
transacted at the October term of
court.
In consequence Judge Clementson
has designated September 2. 1914 as a
day set apart for hearing citizenship
petitions, and there is no doubt that
a large number will come up for hear
ing at that ti&e, in order that the
men petitioning may eligible to vot-
ing privileges at the Novem Der cleo
tion. Thirty petitioners are already
enrolled, fourteen of whom are Ian
caster men.
All petitions must be on file with
the clerk of the circuit court on or
before June 2, 1914.

MEETING CALLED TO
REORGANIZE BAND

Last week The Herald announced
the dissolution of the Lancaster cor
net band and said present conditions
seemed to indicate that we would
have no such organization here this
year.
A good band is somsthing that is
very much enjoyed in Lancaster and
the splendid one we have had for sew
eral seasons has attracted great crowds
of people, not only from the city, but
from the surrounding country rs we'll.
to the weekly evening concerts that
have been given upon the court house
square.
It takes lot of time upon the part
of members of the band to meet for
frequent practice and for play and en-
tails considers BILE expense as we'll.
SO long as these concerts are free to
the public, aside from the $3.50 per
year given to the band by the city, it
should be a pleasure to our people in
general to each contribute something,
no matter how little, to keeping up
the organization.
It will be a misfor tune if we do
not revive this organization, and if
we are going to do so it is time that
something was done. To that end
a special meeting has been called for
Friday evening of this week at 80
at Schade's gymnasium, to consider
the matter. All former mem bers of
the band and all others interested are
invited to be present.
Young men Of the city and ada
cent country who want to learn free
of charge to play any band instru-
ment. will be given an opportunity.
Attend this meeting and let's have

TOTMAN AGAIN WRITES
OF SOUTH AMERICA
Uruguay Larger Than the Six
New England States
Comparisons Drawn By Former Lancas-
ter Boy as to Commercial Con-
ditions, Population, Etc.

Uruguay has an area of 1920
square miles; 1t is 90 per cent larger
than the six New England States and
equal in size to Wisconsin, New
Hampshire and Vermont. It has Is
departments or provinces, and 9
population of 1, 300, 900.

Belgium 1873 6800,OJO 900
Uruguay has more than twice as
many people per square mile as any
other South American country. 1t
may still be said to be sparsely
populated, as is illustrated by the
above data. From personal observa-
tion it is populated to about the same
extent as the state of Montana.
The country districts, considered
separately from the cities of over
1000 inhabitants, would not number
more than two or three to the square
mile. for Montevideo alone has a
population of $50. 900, and although in
numbers only representing % per
cent of the population, in actuality
it represents 10 per cent politically,
commercially, financially, etc. The
schools of the country are in
Montevideo-the University is there
the educated people are there: the
political. bosses are there. Political
campaigns do not extend beyond the
capital city scarcely. for as Mon
tevideo votes so do the people of the
'pueblos. Campaigners do not
have very heavy campaign expenses
nothing beyond street car fare and
hall rent.
Referring again to the data
Argentina has a little less than half
the territory of the U. S. A. mot
considering Alaska and island pos
sessions. Twenty per cent of the
Argentine population is in the city
of Buenos Aires. The q. S. A.

What is considered one of the most
remarkable advancements made in

The process is described as follows
by the Mining and Engineering

ore Is run from a bin through
crushers, then to a stamp mill, where
It is further crushed in cyanide
solution, and conducted through a
tube mill and reduced to about 200

launder and lixiyiator. where the pulp
is heated, additional cyanide supplied
