and none was doing greater work.
In recognition OF their faithful servIte

men, their splendid service and the
brave and heroic work they are doing.
Each speaker touched upon the poor
support that had been given the fire.
men by the city council, and told how
they had to struggle and get assist
ance from every source possible to-
maintain their equipment even at Its
present state Of efficiency. All OF
them emphasized the fact that the
CITY council should make better pro-
vision for the fire department. That
It should no longer be neglected, but
that It should be recognized as one Of
the city's most important departments
and ample provision should be made
for its maintenance just the same as
any other branch Of the city govern
ment.
At this point the medals, which are
of gold and beautiful In workmanship
and design, were presented. That to
Chief Jenkins by Hon. w. G. Davis,
and to Assistant Chief worley by Rev..

brave men who by their long and
faithful service had won this merited
distinction.
Aldermen W. s. Wilson, Jr., and j.
S. Doan were present and were called
upon. Both responded most happily
and both expressed their thorough
sympathy with the fire department
and pledged their cooperation and
support as far as the resources OF the
city would permit.
Short talks were also made by o.
Z. Saunders, president Of the fire de-
partment, Chief c. Il. Jenkins and Mr..
J. w. Hamilton, one Of the depart

served, followed by cigars, which

PRIMARY ELECTION FAULTS.

Under the above caption the Hous.
ton Post editorially comments on the
failures and shortcomings of the Ter.
rell election law. Among other things
the Post says:
On last Saturday, the people OF
Texas. or many Of them, had an op.
portunity to observe the working OF
the primary election system and to
detect many Of its defects. Possibly
when the State convention meets in
August other defects will be clearly
apparent.
sIn this connection we call to mind
some Of the remarks made by candi
dates in Harris County when fling
their expense accounts.
"One candidate for the legislature
declared that portion Of his expen-
ditures went to 'moochers, boosters,
buns and bloodsuckers.'
Another said: I have been on the
police force here for more than ten
years and l never dreamed there were
% many panhandlers and grafters. !
was simply surprised and astounded.'
"One Of the attaches OF the Office Of
. candidate for reelection declared:
Z have paid lodge dues for more than
100 men during the past two months
"Other candidates. expressing them
selves in different terms, declared
themselves as outraged by the many
demands made upon them"
The primary law. Of course, like all
human institutions. has its defects.
but no law will ever be made or could
be made that will make our politics
absolutely pure. The peddler OF his
right of franchise is here and will be
here always and no law can make him
otherwise. Neither is the candidate
himself wholly blameless. He wants
votes, and wherever he finds one that
can be picked up" II is human nature
for him to reach out and get II. Those
things can never be reached by law.
While these things are to be re-
grctted. none will deny but that the
present system is preferable to con-
ditIons that prevailed prior to the
enactment OF the present primary law
Regardless Of its defects, there are
none who would wish to return to the
old vote-buying. nigger-heeling. owl
meeting system that was so long
disgrace to Texas.

JUMBO EX, EARNINGS IN
DECEMBER ARE $4,000

Production and earnings OF the
Jumbo Extension company for the
month of December were more than
double in volume those of the pre-
ceding month, as shown by the pre-
liminary estimates for December.
Just prepared by Secretary Ben
Gill. The November output was
greatly reduced by the necessity for
handling a large tonnage of low
grade material, in cleaning up the
slopes on the lower levels. which
were required for back-filling with
waste.
The December production consist
ed of 293S dry tons of ore, shipped
to the sampler. of gross value OF
$4,000. Freight, treatment and
sampling costs were approximatcly
$4,000; smelter losses. $12,5OC,
and total operating costs $1,000,
or a total of $57, 900 for operating
expenses; while the net realization
for the month is estimated at $53,-
900.
The results of development work
in the Jumbo Extension mine of
late have been most satisfactory
and there is good ground for the
hope that the rate of production for

vein that has been penetrated by
the shaft. Seams of good ore have
been found in this vein, which is
separate and distinct from the main
lode, opened from the No. / shaft.

RESULTS OF QUEST FOR POTASH
NEAR HERE ARE DISAPPOINTING

Hopes that Goldfield would be-
come the center of a potash pro
ducing industry OF Importance have
received a setback from the re-
port of Victor Barndt, who has been
conducting Investigations in this re-
gion lately and whose preliminary
tests were pronounced encouraging.
These Investigations were made in
the Goldfield district, at Cuprite,
IA miles south of Goldfield, ann
near Silver Peak, 2S miles wesr U,
Goldfield.
In a report sent to Il. h. Free,
the expert and chemist who was 10

tests to their final point in the
event of Mr.. Barndt's report being
favorable, Mr.. Barndt points OF,
that while he found potash Detrins
alunite in all three districts. the
conditions were not favorable fer
the recovery of the concentrates
salts in commercial quantity.
Mr.. Barndt, in his report, states
that while it was apparent tlat
large deposits of alunite existed IN
this region the majority OF the
samples taken by him showed 100

it's upward incline, to make a con-
nection with the 535 drift, which
was extended from a winZe below
drift. The 535 has been extended
.ar to the east of the point which
was earlier supposed to mark the
eastern limits of the ore channel,
and has continued to expose high
grade shipping ore and to greatly
extend the known area of enrich
ment. Drifts in this part of the
property have reached point with
in about $50 feet of the Merger
boundary and are opening up a
.arge tonnage OF rich ore between
aepths of 800 and 975 feet.
Development work and ore ex-'
traction have been greatly facill-
tated and important measures OF
economy perfected by the clearing
out of the Slopes on the deeper
levels. This has permitted of
back-filling with waste broken in
development, thus relieving the
noisting plant to large extent and
Il. .aking possible an increase in the
volume of ore shipments.
Connection will soon be made
from the crosS-cLt that is being
driven to the southeast, on the
.nird or S50-foot level. to that
which has been driven to meet It

tinue to show wide faces of bonan-

extended upward to make COZ

80G-foot level. The ore from these
stopes is extracted only as it is re-
CURED tc mix with the l0w-grade
material broken in development.
Extraction from this territory has
neen hampered by reason OF the
roundabout course through which
this will be remedied by the new
cross-cut, which will afford a di-
rect connection with the main shaft.
The new vein, exposed by the
southeast cross-cut from the old
workings ON the third level, is OF
excellent appearance and was found
to contain ore assaying S63 per
ton. Immediately upon the COM
pletion of the cross-cut connection

exploring this vein by means of
