talk of another election to vote on the
question of a bond issue for good
roads. Now if l ever vote on this is

for. At the other bond election there
seemed TO he some misunderstanding
as to how the money was to be raised
to pay off the Indebtedness. l wish
you would publish, how, where and
when the money is to be raised and
any other information for or against
it which a voter should know.
Yours truly.

ways is rather remote at present, but
such a movement is on foot and peti-
tons asking the county commission
crs to call such an election are now
heing circulated for presentation to
the commissioners, which will put the
question up to them for action
In 1913 a 100000 bond issue for
road improvements was voted in Ada
county. These bonds we're sold at a
small premium one hundred and nifty
thousand dollars of that issue draws
interest at the rate of five and one
half per cent and $4,000 at 1--WE per

on these bonds S10,750 The taxes de-
rived from automobiles in this county

dition approximately $4,000 was left
over, which under the amended law by
the last session of the state legisla-
ture, the county commissioners are in

VIRGINIA IS IN THE LEAD
IN MANGANESE OUTPUT
Ahead Of All Other States in Pro-
duction, According to Experts Re
port on Domestic Supply.

Virginia has contributed more heav-
lily than any other state to the domes-
tic production Of manganese ores. ac-
cording to a report recently made on
some manganese mines in Virginia And
Maryland by d. F. Hewett of the
United States geological survey. The
domestic supplies have furnished only
a small fraction of the manganese re-
quired by our industries-in 1918 only
about 8 per cent, and from 1910 to
1914 only l per cent.
The demand for large amounts of
manganese ores in this country began
in the period 1S65-1S70. with the in
PRODUCTION Of the Bessemer and open
hearth processes Of steel making. and
has grown enormously. Five OF the six
deposits described in this report are on the
east side of the valley that lies west of
the Blue Ridge and is commonly known
as the Great Valley Of Virginia The
Blue Ridge, in the Piedmont region.
Psilomelane is the commonest man.
ganese mineral of all the ores, but
manganite and wad are also present.
The ores are all Of the near-surface
origin and were formed mainly through
the replacement of clays and schist by
manganese carried in solution in the
ground water. The greatest depth to
which the ores have been traced is $50
feet. 1t is considered improbable that
manganese ores in any of the Virginia
or Maryland deposits will extend to
depths more than 500 feet.
