Mines Will
Open Soon
In The Hills

Work on the mines at E'town
and Red River will be resumed
again as soon as the snow leaves
the mountains, possibly within the
next few weeks. Several of the
mining operations are making pre-
parations to install more maehin-
cry with which to develop their
properties more thoroughly and al
so increase the output Of gold and
silver bullion.
The present year has bright fu-
ture before it in the way of increas-
ed prosperity with mining develop
ments. The new road between E.
town and Red River, when COM
pleted, will have a tendency to de-
velop a large business for the west
ern part OF the county that it does
not receive now.

GRAND JURY FINDS
FAULT WITH ASSESS.
County Assessor Of Union County
Shows Pardality In Performing
His Official Duties.

The conditions and management
of the Union county assessors Of
fce are deplorable, according to
the report of the Union county
grand jury which said in this con-
nection:
I'VE find that the manner Of as
sessing property has largely been
illegal and also unsatisfactory to a
large portion Of the taxpayers:
"First-Because said taxpayers
have been ignored when they desir-
ed to assist in placing valuations
upon their property.
Second IT Determinations IL
value, favoritism, ETC., are plainly
apparent from little investigation.
"Third-We also find that the
assessor spends much of his time
away from his official duties, when
by the requirements Of law he
should give his entire time thereto.
Fourth Gross errors, numer-
GUS in number, plainly denonstra-
tive of incompetency or negligence
and are causing much trouble and
dissatisfaction among the taxpay-
.ers II lIpion county We the
the meihbets Of The grand Jury be-
lieve that il we desired the legal in
vestigation of the conditions and
management of the assessors Office
according to chapter SO of the laws
of 1909, in all probability the pres
ent incumbent would be forced tc
vacate his Office.
