CH|zONA TUNGSTEN
 HAS HIGH VALUES

What is claimed by mining men to have been the most remarkable ship ment of tungsten ore ever marketed in Denver, is to the credit of the Chi zona Mining company of Tiptop dis trict. which is operating the Tungsten King property.
 From "A tons of crude ore shipped to the Sutton & Steele company. in that city. the value averaged $2150 to the ton. The separation gave 10- 473 pounds of first grade concentrates that assayed 677 per ceh' and settle ment was made On the basis of $45 per unit. S3.046.50 per ton, or q total value of s15,S4O.
 H. K. Patch. of Phoenix, is presi- dent of the Chizona, and is preparing for another shipment to be made to Denver, all his product being under contract to Chicago buyers. The above shipment was taken entirely from surface workings through an open cut and shallow shaft of 50 feet in depth) Mir Patch is in personal charge of his property and is driving a tunnel on a four-foot vein of feber- ite Pending the proving up of the Chzona' and the installation of a Sut- ton & Steele plant thereon, future production from the property will con tinue to go to Denver for treatment.
 The recent shipment is the largest ever. received in Denver from an Ari- zona tungsten property, and the ex- ceptionally high grade of it is occa sioning very much interest as well as comment in mineralogical circles Prescott Journal Miner

.CY BYRNE' $ MASCOT
 HAS NEVER FAILED

There is no other man in the world freer from apprehension of an auto
 mobile accident than Cy Byrnes, for mer land commissioner. Byrne goes about with a confidence equalled only by that of the old-time sea captain
 who set out on a deep water voyage
 with his vessel overrun with rats The
 rats were a guaranty of a safe return. MT. Byrne, on his auto bike voyages for the last month has had a con-
 stant companion in the shape of a mouse, which since it's discovery has apparently never left the machine. It has a neat little nest under the seat MT. Byrne wac exhibiting it about l town yesterday When the machine is in motion the mouse remains under | cover, but when it is brought to a stop the mouse makes its appearance
 regardless of the crowds which gather ! about the machine. It runs all over
 the top and among the intricacies Of
 the engine and when it has performed { it's stunt it retires to its nest.

DEITY BACK FROM
 THE WEST INDIES

W. E. Deity, mining engineer and in charge of the mining department of The Republican. yesterday returned from six weeks trip to the British West Indies on professional business, representing syndicate of British capitalists MT. Deity spent the most of his time at Kingston, Jamaica.
 He does not want to leave the Salt River valley, or at least Arizona, in the summer time again. He found no other part of the country where the weather was not much more disagree able It was unbearable in Chicago and New York, infinitely worse than in the tropics While the weather was hot in Jamaica, a refreshing breeze could always be counted upon cer- tain time of the day;it was as much to be depended upon as the clock.

Liver with pills may give temporary relief but the pill habit is not a health habit. It will put the liver out of business in time - and then everything else goes out of business. Get the health habit by eating Shredded Wheat Biscuit, the ideal hot weather food, which contains more digest ible, brain-making, muscle building material than beef steak or eggs. The tasty, delicious crispness of the baked wheat gives palate . joy and stomach comfort. It supplies the maximum of nutriment in smallest bulk. Delicious for breakfast with milk or cream, or for any meal with fresh fruits. Made at Niagara Falls, N. Y.

COLD STRIKE MADE
 ID MILES FROM GLOBE

GLOBE, Aug. 30.-A gold strike of some importance is said to have been made by B. F. Reynolds and A. J.. Bovard, of Nevada about 10 miles south of Globe. MT. Reynolds, who left a small sample of the ore in which free gold can plainly be seen, stated that they have from IA to 20 inches or the same character of ore, and judg- ing from the pannings it should go $90 to $100 per ton.
 Bovard claims to be one of the ori- ginal locators of Rawhide, New, and also the locator of the camp of Bo. yard, New, but he says that Gila county is one of the greatest mineral ized districts that he has ever seen and offers many more opportunities to the prospector than does Nevada, and also to the investor who wants to spend his money where he will have a fair chance of developing a mine. In this respect, he thinks Gila county leads all other districts of which he ahs any knowledge.

SUPERVISORS FIX
 , COUNTY TAX RATE

The board of supervisors have fixed the county tax rate for the year at 57 cents. It is made up as follows: County general fund, .223; county road fund, .116: county school fund. POS; flood fund, 0016; bond interest re- funding fund, .02l4. The county rate last year was .5S. ,'The state rate .Iast year was .54 against 40 this year. so that the total rate, exclusive, of course, of the special rates for school districts which will be no higher this year than last, will be .97 against SLIP last year.
 This reduction of the rate together with g. reduced valuation this year, allowed by the state board of equaliza = tion of about s3,OOO,OO0. should make a decided reduction in the bills of property owners in this county.

AN EFFICIENT OFFICIAL.

Efficiency in office should carry
weight when the incumbent is before
the public for nomination and re-elec-
tion, and that officer who has exer-
cised economy, as we'll as efficiency, in
the discharge of official duties Is wor-
thy of further Endorsement and trust
In some quarters an idea prevails that
women are not as competent as mere
man in conducting a public office, in
7, handling a public trust, but experience
| in this county has demonstrated that
capable woman can make creditablo
record in a public office. For instance,
Itake the office of county clerk, that
has been under the management and
direction of Mrs. Mary e. Mcclure for
the past two years, and comparing the
receipts and disbursements OF that Of
lfice with similar offices in adjoining
counties and the figures show that Mrs.
Mcclure has made a greater saving LOT
Okanogan county, and better show
ing. than has been made by the county
clerks of such counties as Ferry, Che
Ian, Douglas, Grant and Lincoln, all
held by men. Quoting a few hgures IN
this connection may be stronger evl-
dence than mere assertion, as they are
the official records. Taking the audi
TORS annual reports for the year 1919
and the record of the receipts and dis-
of county clerks are as fol-
lows: Chelan county, recelpts'
$4,3S5.9O; disbursements, $3'9oo'o9'
which shows about 10 per cent less eN-
lpenditures than receipts. Grant count!
receipts, $2,5S9; expenses, SZ'oa4'
about 2 per cent less expenditures
than receipts. Douglas county receipts
are s1.539.9O; expenditures $2,OOl.1''
or ,29 per cent greater disbursements
than receipts Ferry county, receipts

7 per cent less expeditures than re-
ceints Okanogan county, receipts are
37425; disbursements S2,S35'sl' or
Is per cent greater receipts than ex-

paid the entire charges. Friday he was
shaved at Frank Buckinghams barber

stating that he had lost all of his mon

could hardly swallow that statement,
as he did not believe that anybody in

Deputy Sheriff Ward deserves great
credit for running down the robber so
promptly and making the arrest after
discovering his whereabouts. He did
not ask his companions to share the
danger. Neither did he halt nor hesitate
when it was evident that a desperate
man had been run to earth. He took
all the chances by deliberately walk

had been a real desperate he could
easily have shot the officer and made
his escape. Mr.. Ward took that chance
in the performance Of his duty. and

CLUB ORGANIZED.

a large meeting of republicans assembl
ed at the town hall Wednesday evening for
the purpose of discussing the advisibility
of organizing with the object Of demand
ing some recognition for the north part
of the county from officials running for
office. An organization was perfected and
some very warm speeches were made, in
which 1t was set forth the undeniable
fact that while the north part of the
county has paid very large share of the
taxes In past years. this section has re
ceived very little material aid from the
county in return. The people have sub
mitted stamely to this treatment. but have
at last reached the conclusion that it Is
time- 70 act.--All that is asked Ia fair and
equitable recognition on the part Of those
in authority, and feeling that this has not
been accorded in the past some effort is
to be made to secure recognition In the
future. The principal actions OF the meet
ing was to nominate c. w. Smith as a
candidate for county commissioner for
the first district and appoint committees
to see that the full vote of the three local
precincts. that will amount to several
hundred is registered.
