COUNCIL NAMES GARNER
ASST FIRE CHIEF.

The city council met in regu-
lar session last Monday evening.
One important step by the city
father was the naming of an As
sistant Fire Chief, under Chief
Posey, TO head and direct the hose
gang of the city fire department.
This appointment went to Osa
Garner, electrician for the Ken
lucky Light 4 Power Co, who
will doubtless fill the place in a
ereditable manner. The lack of
a head for the hose crew was
painfully noticeable during a
fire last week.
The council also ordered GOO
feet of new 21a inch fire hose and
an extra nozzle to go with the
engine.
A Board of Equalization was
appointed as follows; Il. q.
Hale, r. NJ. Provow and W. ;.
Ellison. These gentlemen serv-
ed in the same capacity last year.

TARBOX OFFICERS PLAN
DEEP SHAFT OPERATIONS.
SHAFT WILL BE CARRIED to-
THE 70o.FooT LEVEL
MACHINERY ADDED.

| Operations at the property of the
Tarbox Mining company are to be
pushed ahead steadily and the shaft
| carried to the 70O-foot Level, accord :
ing to the report of Mr.. Richard Dax-
on, manager of the mine. The shaft
Is now nearing the 50O-foot level To
facilitate the work and hasten the
cottage an air compressor and power
drills are now being installed and
VIII be In operation by September TO-
When this equipment Is available Mr.,
Daxon states he expects to be able To
drive the shaft at the rate of 100 feet
per month, employing three shifts of
miners.
1t is the present plan to carry the
smart down $50 feet below the 4O0-foot
level before cutting a station. When
this is accomplished the shaft is to be
carried along for another $50 feet to
the 7OO-foot level, where a station will
be cut and large pump installed.
Crosscuts will be driven to intersect
the vein on the $50 and 700 foot levels
and from that point drifts will be
driven both to the east and west to
open the ore bodies exposed on the
4O0-foot level above and also in the
Winze to the 500 and 600 levels
The management expects to reach
the 7OO-foot level in the shaft by the
first of the year and believes that once
the vein Is cut at that depth the prop
erty will be in position to begin max
ing regular shipments to the smelter.
The ore bodies exposed on the 400
level give every reason for the man
agement to expect commercial bodies
on the lower stations and the officers
state that they will bend every effort
to realize their expectations during
the next few months.

THE ELECTRIFICATloN OF RAIL.
ROADS BIG COST SAVING.

Under its contract with the Mon
tana Power company, the Milwaukee
q ST. Paul railroad is paying at the
rate of something like $550,000 a year
for electric power to run its $50 miles
on the main portion of its line between
HarlOWton, Mont, and Avery, Idaho.
1t paid for coal to operate its steam
trains over the same line approximate
ly %,750,OOO, and the company furnish
ed its own coal from its own mines on
its road, and one-third of it's equip
ment was used in hauling coal for its
own use, With electric power there Is
no such waste, and in consequence the
saving is enormous
Another case of large savings is
that of the Butte, Anaconda & Paci-
fic railway, an Anaconda holding,
which is now paying less than 100000
a year for its electric power, whereas
formerly it cost near $4,000 for coal
to operate its steam road, a saving OF
approximately $4,000 annually.
AS result of these signal successes
in electrilication, it is foregone con-
clusion that but few years will have
elapsed before all roads operating in a
mountainous country, where hydro
electric power can be developed cheap
trio power.
At the present time nearly $4,000
miles of railroad are operated in the
states of California, Oregon, Washing
ton, Idaho, Montana, Wyoming, North
Dakota, South Dakota, Utah, Arizona,
Colorado and Nevada, and as it Is es-
timated that 100000 horsepower is
needed to operate 100 miles of single
track it will require some 5000, 1000
horsepower to electrify all the rail-
roads of these states.
As a great portion of the trackage
in the above states is over mountains,
the use of electricity in place of coal
would result in great economy in OPP
Grafton would largely lessen the dan
gers of forest fires, and by elimination
OF noise, smoke, gas and dust would
make travel far more safe, comfort
able and pleasant than at present.
The wood burning locomotive of so
years ago weighed 20 TONS the cleo
trio locomotive of today is 112 feet
long and weighs 2S5 tons. These won
derful motors absorb the mechanical
energy of the train going down grade
by gravity and return it in the form of
electrical energy to substation for use
by trains running along the level or
going up grade. Thus, through regen-
grafton braking, from % to so per cent
Of the power is recovered.

ong step towards true conservation

the Federal Mining & Smelling COM
pany and the Marsh Mining company
over alleged ore trespasses charged
against the Marsh company by the
mining claims were made public last
week when an agreement and lease
were placed on record here. In the
preamble to the agreement it is set
forth that the Federal company is the
owner of the O'Neil, Mono Fraction
and Russell lode mining claims ad-
joining the Marsh property at Burke
and that the Federal company claims
that the Marsh has entered into said
claims by means of underground
workings and extracted large quanti-
ties of ore and which is denied by the
Marsh company. 1t is also recited
that the Federal has right to legal
action against the Marsh for an ac-
counting for such ores or for tres
pass. The agreement recites that in
consideration of the covenants and
agreements to be kept and performed
by the Marsh company the Federal
company agrees to waive any and all
such claims for an accounting and
trespass. On its part the Marsh COM
pany agrees to expend in the develop
ment of the Marsh property and The
three claims of the Federal a sum of
rot less than $4,000 such expenditure
to be made under the control of the

officials, 1t being the intention to leave !

company. By compliance with this
agreement, the Federal company gives

Afternoon.
The election of two directors on the
Wallace school will take place next
Tuesday afternoon, the polls to be
open from 100 p. m. to 700 p. m. at
the school building. A. H. Feather
stone and Harry A. Rogers are the re-
firing members of the board, their
term of office expiring at that time
Neither of these gentlemen are candi-
dates for the office again. Mr.. Alex
Penaluna and Mr.. -Therrett Towles
have announced their willingness to
serve on the board and as both are
eminently qualified for the position
there is little likelihood of any opposi-
ton. Both have the best interests of
the school at heart and can be counted
on to give their careful consideration
to all matters pertaining to the school
interests.
