GUT ORE IN CROSSCUT
IN HYPOTHEEK MINE
CUT FEEDER THAT SHOWS OVER
A FOOT OF CLEAN GALENA
SHIP CAR OF ORE.

being estimated at about 100 feet The
big surprise of this mine has been the
persistency of carbonate ore at such
unusual depth, for while there is a
fine shoot of galena on the 900 level,
most of the ore is carbonate, 1t was
with the view to getting below the
carbonate and developing a body of
lead sulphide that the shaft was at
the time extended 200 feet further
and a crosscut started to the vein on
the 100 level.
A Foot of Clean GaIena.
The other day when the crosscut
had advanced about 80 feet, or half of
the distance to the vein, shoot of
clean galena ore was encountered
which is supposed to be an offshoot or
feeder to the main vein. 1t was a
real surprise and highly gratifying
for it clearly indicates that when the
vein is reached it is almost certain
to be of the same character Of ore.
The first shipments from the Hypo-
theek will probably be made today or
tomorrow. The car on the sidetrack
at Enaville was loaded yesterday.
Since the above was written infor-
nation has been received that the first
carload of Hypotheek ore was shipped
today, going to the United States
smelter at Midvale, Utah

Hosting ore from the 900 level has
been discontinued, although there is a
large amount of ore broken down
ready to be moved. This was made
necessary on account of the desire of
the management to crowd work in the
Icrosscut, which with the muck that
comes from the sump that is being cut
in the crosscut at the 100, feet deep
by rs in length, taxes the capacity of
the hoist.

erous quartz stringers carrying more

VIII Ask for an Injunction.


Woods decision attorneys for the In
terstate- Callahan company announc-
ed that they would apply to the Unit
ed States district court for an in
proceeding further in state court Pen
ding hearing for an injunction be-
fore Judge DIETRICH, which will prob
ably require 10 days or more, it was
agreed that the receiver appointed by
Judge Woods should not take charge
of the property, provided, however
that the Interstate Callahan Mining
company put up bond Of 100000 as
a protection to the plaintiffs against
damages by reason of the receiver not
taking charge during that period.
An Array Of Legal Talent.
The fight for the control of the In
terstate- Callahan company promises
to be one Of the most stubbornly con
tested legal battles that has develop
ed in the mining districts of the west
in many years. Among the attorneys
on both sides are men who have
achieved great prominence in mining
litigation, and the vast interests in.
volved, being control Of one Of the
worlds greatest zinc mines, will test
to the limit their resourcefulness. The
plaintiffs, Callahan Mining company
Joseph Boutin and others, are repre-
sented by James r. Clyde Of this city
John P. Gray of Occur d'Alene, and
Myron A. Folsom of Spokane. Associ-
ated with these and representing the
Callahan -Boutin board Of directors
elected at the recent meeting are Louis
Hanitch of Superior, Wis, and w. f.

SEEK AN INJUNCTION

FEDERAL COURT TO BE ASKED
TO STOP FURTHER PRO-
CEEDlNGS.

After hearing the argument for anC
against his right to appoint receiver
to take charge of the affairs of the
Consolidated Interstate Callahan Min
ing company at his summer home last
week, Judge Woods yesterday after
noon announced his decision. He de-
MED the petition of the defendant tc
transfer the case to the federal court
holding that it was a case in which
he was well satisfied that he had jur-
isdiction. The petition to transfer the
case was based on the fact that the
Callahan Mining company, plaintiff
is an Idaho corporation, the Inter
state Callahan company is an Art
zona corporation, while the other par
ties to the suit are for the most part
citizens of Minnesota,

As TO ToLL-sRiDGEs.

A bright correspondent writes US
suggesting the system Of tolls for the
erection and maintenance Of bridges.
But this would only be profitable in a
thickly.settled, much-traveled country,
not one like ours, where there Is not
sufficient travel to pay the cost of q
man to collect the tolls. This is an
other case Of catching rabbit before
attempting to cook it. The people must
be here, before tolls can be collected.
In other parts Of Louisiana, where tolls
bridges have been tried, they have not
proved popular: probably because the
average person hates to pay tax Of
any kind. Apparently, he would much
rather have his vehicle wear out
sooner, or his horse get leaner and
leaner, and finally die sooner, from
pulling over bad roads and through
sandy creek-beds, than to pay his tax
in more palpable form.

FOR EASIER READING.

The Times-Picayune has discarded
the double column on its editorial page,
and the change would be entirely ad-
mirable if the size of type had not been
reduced to 6 point, which is too small
for the comfort Of the average reader.
There is little doubt that the farming
editorials of Herman Seiferth would
attract much larger number Of read
ers were they printed in larger type.
The change from double to single
column is entirely good. There was
never any merit but novelty in the
double column for editorials. 1t Is too
wide a measure for the eye Of the
reader to take in a line at q single
glance, or without special movement
of the eye in reaching the end Of the
line, whereas the single column line
can be taken in with one glance, and
in the case of rapid readers, several
lines or whole paragraph can be seen
with but single movement Of the eye.
Books would be vastly easier to read
If the pages were divided into columns,
as is done in many books published in
Europe. Any reader Of one of these
books will testify to the satisfactory
size of the single column,

WARD NARRoWNEss.

If any thing makes one lose faith in
ward representation In parish govern.
ment, it is to hear member say in
regard to any proposition: "But that
won't help my ward" He reveals by
this expression that his sole idea of
his duties as police juror or school
board member is to get something for
his ward, and when that does not
present itself in an obvious form, then
he must oppose it.
The correct conception Of duty in
such case is that member Is part
OF the whole parish government or
school system, and that his first duty
is to consider the general good, and
that his ward is only incidental there
to. If every member took this view of
public duty, he would find that his
work for his own ward would be less
strenuous and more productive Of re-
suits. Ward representation is designed
that all parts of parish should be
sure of having a voice in parochial
government, and not that a body of
men should represent warning inter.
ests and blatant antagonisms.
The true Democrat., 1915-07-31
CONVENTION THE BEST
AFTER ALL.

1t will take heavy vote from the
country to defeat the proposition for a
constitutional convention, as 1t is OBJ
vious that the city wants one. The
sweeping victory of the city regulars
in Tuesdays primary shows this. 1t
does not necessarily reveal any ulterior
motive on the part of these politicians,
for it is well known that the present
fiscal system of New Orleans needs
immediate improvement for the relief
of the people and none knows this
better than does the ring.
Opposition to the constitutional con-
vention will diminish in the country
when it Is realized that whether one
be held or not, that some change must
be made in the assessments or in the
rate of taxation to meet the growing
needs of the state government. 1t is
not demand that can be ignored. 1t
must be met by special session and
constitutional amendment, or new
constitution. Many thoughtful people
believe that a thorough change is
cheaper and safer in the long run,
with more chances for introducing
features of economy and efficiency in
administration.
While there is much sentiment in
the country against convention, the
primary reveals that it is less general
than was supposed At Baton Rouge,
the election of two anti-conVentionists
Is attributed to a distaste for the con-
vention, but it is far more likely that
the result is due to local antagonisms
or faVoritisms than it is to state poll
tics. Affairs political at Baton Rouge
are always extremely murky, and there
are 30 many wheels within wheels that
only one at the innermost hub can see
any sense in the wheels going round.
Moreover Gov. Hall has never been
popular at the capital because he was
not ready to fetch and carry for all
their little local affairs, nor was he
willing to let its men run his admins
tration. Judging by the uplifted spirit,
the broad patriotism that many men
display in their use of the ballot one
can easily surmise that many such
electors adopted this means to attempt
to thwart the governor in his sugges-
tion for convention, by electing men
who would be disturbing elements in
convention if such were held, and in
the case of no convention, these men
could be pointed out as the blind
Samsons, who pulled down the entire
structure!

The candidacy of Harry D. Wilson
for commissioner of agriculture and
is one Of the most salts
factory in point of both fitness and
popularity that has as yet been an.
nounced. Mr.. Wilson comes nearer to
being an ideal farmer than most others
who claim to be competent to instruct
the great body of farmers. However,
we hope that the constitutional con-
vention will either abolish this Office,
or increase it's powers to include all
boards of an agricultural nature. There
Is much Of waste and too much scope
for building up political power in the
Office as now conducted. There should
be a radical change made in all the
provisions of law regarding this Office.

A conference of mayors Of Louisiana
cities and towns has been called for

dria, La, as the meeting point. The
purpose of the municipal executives

pal problems of a general character
and to provide way for crystallization
of sentiment and uniformity of action
in dealing with general statutory regu.
lations affecting cities and towns. This
being an age of specialization, it is
proper enough that mayors should
meet and confer upon the problems Of
municipalities. Merely for it's tendency
to inform the average mayor as to the
details of his job, the movement is
commendable, not to mention that in
union there will be strength to push
legislation needed for improvements in
civic communities.

POPULARITY WRONG KEYNOTE.

The personal popularity reason, not
to mention the get back at you for real
or fancied injury motive, is strongly
in evidence in the returns of Tuesdays
primary in West Feliciana. This may
be said without any unkind feeling to
any of the candidates, the facts being
so obvious. Mr.. Taylor, young and
with untried spurs in the race Of either
politics or law, ran ahead of Judge
Lawrason, man known all over
Louisiana for his ability and special
equipment by both study and expert
ence for the work of writing a new con-
stitution; while Mr. Stirling, genial and
kind and Of some legislative experience
but not comparable to Judge Lawra-
sons, ran a close third. We repeat
there can be no question that the in
fuenCes as designated had much more
to do with the vote than any strong
over-ruling desire for selecting the
best possible man. We say this in
entire candor, and with no i'll will to
either candidates or voters, but feeling
very deep regret that the latter
should use the ballot in any but the
big, broad way that true democracy
defines: the laying aside of personal
considerations or preferences and the
looking with an eye single to the fit
ness of the candidate for the prospec-
tive task! The True Democrat has
always done this, and regardless of
personal feeling, fixes upon the man
best fitted in every way for the posi-
ton in question. The True Democrat
points with pride to instances where
this was done at the expense of per-
sonal humiliation and charges of in
consistency. 1t has supported candi-
dates personally unfriendly to the
paper and to us as individuals. Such
we conceive to be the proper course of
every voter and if it were universally
followed would lead to the simpliflca-
tion of campaigns and the reduction to
a minimum Of the number of the
primary elections necessary to choice
The true Democrat., 1915-07-31
THE CAPTAIN AND HIS SHIP.

1t was the forecast Of observers that
on Tuesday every one who felt grudge
against Judge Lawrason because Of the
failure of the Feliciana Bank and Trust
Co. of which he was president would
vote against him, and canvass Of the
vote largely confirms this apprehen-
sion. Strange to say the largest losers
by the banks failure did not act thus,
so far as known, but small depositors
and those who suffered from conse-
Quent conditions, induced by the failure,
did cast their votes against Judge
Lawrason, disregarding the fact, that
the choice OF delegate involved no
banking question, but merely the one
of general intelligence, finished educa-
ton, ability to write and interpret law,
wide experience of men and matters,
united with reputation for integrity
and high character Without dispar-
agement of the other candidates, there
is no doubt that Judge Lawrason
measures up to these requirements
fully, by the T square of public opinion.
AS for the bank failure, there has
never been the slightest imputation
that he profited one dollar thereby. On
the contrary his closest relatives lost
large sums through the failure.
If a great ship at sea goes down,
whether through external or internal
disaster; stress of wind and weather
or an unseaworthy bottom; or even If
it be through some error in navigation,
it is deemed an act Of heroism when
the captain stands on the bridge, and
goes down with the ship to an un-
cofined grave. Whatever Of error may
be the captains, whatever grave fault
of his may have remotely or presently
led to the disaster, it is accredited to
him as full expiation that he go down
with his ship. A like generosity should
extend to a man, who as surely goes
down with the financial ship that he
commands, if no moral turpitude ap-
pertains thereto.

POLICE JURY RESOLUTION.

At its meeting July 7, the Police

by vote of 9 to 2:
Be it resolved that committee COM

shall be clothed with full power and re-
ceive bids and contract for the construc-

ceed Six Thousand Dollars to West Fe-
liciana. And that said committee be fur
ther authorized and empowered to con-
tract and receive bids for the construc-
ton of bridges over Tunica Bayou, Little
Bayou Sara Creek, Big Boyou Sara Creek
and Alexander's Creek, provided the
amount does not exceed $4,000. 1t was
further resolved that committee be ap-
pointed from among the citizens to act in
an advisory capacity with the said Police
Jury committee, and that consulting
engineer be employed by this committee.

THE AMERICAN FLAG.
(Baton Rouge State -Times.)

ItOOAO St0IO- lL4OSsJ
A subscriber writes to know if an
American flag must be of a certain size
to be official He says somebody has
told him that the size OF the flag has
been fixed by statute, and that unless
it conforms to the statutes it is not
really an American flag.
Our correspondent has been mis-
informed to some extent. The size of
the flag has not been prescribed by
law, but its proportions have. That is
probably where the error was made.
According to the statute the length
of the flag must be one and nine-tenths
its height In other words, just little
less than twice as long as it is wide.
There must be Il horizontal stripes,
alternate red and white. The blue
/ field in which the stars are located is
called the union, and it must be ex-
actly seven stripes high, and it's length
76-100 of the height of the flag itself.
The stars are fve-pointed, and one
point must be placed upward. When a
new state is admitted into the union,
the star is added to the flag upon July
4th following it's admission. The ar
rangement of the stars in the blue
union is matter Of executive order,
and has varied with each states admis-
sion, to conform to the total number of
stars up to that time. At this time
they are in rows of equal number.
