MINING AT SHELBYvlLLE
Bad Roads Greatest Hindrance Tt
Development Of Zinc Industry.

A distinguished visitor to Bates
vii, last week was Col. Edw. G. Cor
nell of New York City, who reath.d
Batesville one morning, purchased a
brand new automobile and left for
Shelbyville, Sharp county, where he
is interested in the operation of zinc
mining property, as president of the
Lavender Mining and Milling Com
pany.
Col. Cornell believes there is a
GREAT future for the zinc mining in
dustry of Sharp county, but finds
that bad roads are the greatest hind
rance to this development. All the
ore taken from the mines in Sharp
county will be shipped from Pfeiffer,
and the roads leading from Shelby
vile to that place are in miserable
condition. Col. Cornell stated to a
Guard representative that he was
ready with his money to assist the
farmers and business men to con-
struct a model highway from Pfeiffer
to the mining district.
Col. Cornell placed a force of men
to work in the Shelbyville mines
last December, and shaft has been
sunk to a depth of 113 feet. Some
excellent ore has been taken out
and shipped, commanding the high
est price in the market. An air COM
pressor and other modern machinery
has lately been installed, and by
April lst the company hopes to be
getting out ore at the rate of 100
tons day.
Col. Cornell is president Of the
company, WIN. B. Hague is field
eecnt, JoseIh Marshall, mining cap
tain, and Joe Stayton of Newport
has charge of the concerns lega

81 cannot understand why the State
Committee should undertake to arbitrar-
lily name the four delegates-at-large for
the Democratic party to the st. Louis
Convention any more than it should lame
the district delegates or the candidate
for United States Senator or Governor
Congressman Scully declares that the
denomination of President Wilson is a
foregone conclusion, but states that there
are evidences of friction and inharmony
on the platform provisions, and that it
is not entirely outside the probabilities
that an attempt will be made in certain
quarters to embarrass the President and
nominate another man. Concluding his
statement, he says:
Il pledge the Democracy of New Jersey
that 1 will leave nothing undone from
now on until the st. Louis Convention
~adjourns to re-nominate Woodrow Viii
son, and to give the Democracy of the
Nation a platform e~mbodying those great
principles he so splendidly typifes."
Former Governor Franklin Murphy,
Republican candidate for United States
Senator, declares that he will not seek
to be a delegate-at-large to the Republi-
can National Convention. He says he
does not want to aspire to too many hon
ors. He is the New Jersey member of
the Republican National Committee and
has served as delegate-at-large at past
conventions.
The New Jersey Woman Suffrage AS
ISOLATION has endorsed the Heating
Owens bill pending in Congress directed
against child labor. The Association will
notify all the New Jersey Congressman
and the two United States Senators of
their action and endeavor to get them to
vote for the measure.
There are lively manifestations of poll
tics in both parties in connection with
the selection of the convention delegates.
1t is said that Congressman Scully as
pires to be United States Senator to sue
coed Senator MARITIME, and will use his
showing at the primaries for delegate-at-
large to test his strength. This means
that his campaign for the Senatorship
will depend upon his success at the con-
v%ention delegate polls.
According to rumor in political cir
cles, there will not be any serious opposi-
ton to Mr.. Scully as delegate-at-large,
and the talk is that the other three of
the Democratic "big four" will be Gov
ernor Fielder and United States Sena-
tors MARITIME and Hughes. This elimin-
ates State Treasurer Grosscup and Rob-
ert s. Hudspeth, the New Jersey member
of the Democratic National Committee.
Hudspeth had been talked of for this hon
or as a Wittpenn man. Scully has al
ways been popular in his own district,
and if he runs in other sections of the
State as he has there, he will win. With
the voters having the final say at the
polls as to who will be chosen, no one
can predict with any certainty which
four will be ~victors.

The passing of each week now brings
greater activity in the political ranks of
both parties over the preparations for the
national conventions. Of course the
chief interest is in the selection of the
big four" or the delegates-at-large in
each political camp. In this connection,
if the bill by Mr.. Schoen, of Essex,
House No. 81, becomes a law the prim-
aries for the election of the delegates to
the Democratic and Republican National
Conventions, to be held in June, will be
advanced one month and will take place
on the last Tuesday in April, instead of
the last Tuesday in May. The reason
advanced in favor of this change is that
the last Tuesday in May is too near the
date of the Republican convention, which
is June Z in Chicago. On the other hand,
if the Schoen bill passes it will mean
more hurry in the preliminary arrange
ments before the primaries.

The Office of State Director of Rail
roads will pass from Democratic to Re-
publican hands. Former Senator Griffith
w. Lewis, of Burlington County, a Re
publican, was elected last year, but died
last summer. Governor Fielder then ap-
pointed Robert D. Foote, of Morristown.
a Democrat, for the unexpired term. Mr..
Foote held the place in 1913 when the
Democrats controlled the Legislature.
The Office is an honorary one with no
salary, the work being to protect the in
terest of the State in some 1900 shares
of stock of the United New Jersey Rail-
road and Canal Companies, which it
owns. The chief emolument of the Office
is a general railroad pass.
