Especial Star Bulletin Correspondence?

Especial Star Bulletin correspondence2
WAILTKT, Maui, August Wv al
luku housekeepers are looking LOT
ward to what promises TO be an In
teresting meat fight. Moreover, they
are anticipating 1t with much salts
faction.
Indications OF the pending conflict
came about two weeks ago when the
supervisors opened the tenders lor
meat contracts for the Nalulanl nos
ptta1 and the county Jail, and found
that Manuel Dutro, the Market street
retail meat man, offered TO supply
the beef wanted at 1872 cents for
choice cuts and l5l2 cents for stew.
This being ! ~ cents per pound lower
than any other bidder, and cents be
low the present retail prices, some
speculation was at once occasloneN.
But people really began to take no
tice when the first Of this week the
Dutro meat market began running an
advertisement in the Daily Wireless,
announcing that after September /,
choice cuts of beef will be retailed
at 17k cents per pound, and stew
meat at 1j12 cents.
In explanation of the % per cent
cut in the face Of generally advanc-
ing prices Of food products, Dutro
stated that he had made siX-year
contract with the Raymond ranch and
as he could buy the meat at 1872
cents he was willing to be satisfied
with a fair profit, and hence had cut
prices. 1t was later learned that an
other Wailuku retailer has also made
contract to handle the Raymond
meat.
1t was reported last week that Har-
old w. Rice had bought the Maui
meat market from A. MacPhee. Mac
Phee in the past has supplied most
of the retailers in Waikiki, including
Dutro, and had been buying from the
Raymond ranch a certain number OF
animals each month. The report
is that with the acquiring Of the bus
mess by Rice, Raymond's market was
shut off because Rice has ample cat
tie to supply the trade. Raymonds
coup followed in the contract with
the two retail dealers.

Georgia Hornets
Take Advantage
OF Fair Bather

SAVANNAH, Ga.-Until the day OF
the hornet-proof bathhouse arrives at
Little River it is probable that bath
ing there will be one Of the most list
lessly followed recreations connected
with that rather meager stream. Miss
Grace Rive of this city went bath
ing there yesterday and her descrip-
ton of the days outing, delivered
through lotion soaked bandages,s has
had the effect of slowing up bathing
enthusiasm hereabouts.
1t appears that Miss Rive, with
group of her friends, went to Little
River and decided to change into
bathing costume in the woods nearby.
Miss Rive was standing alone and had
progressed so far with the :',&nging
Of her apparel that she was quite
ready to put on her bathing suit when
she stepped backwards into hornets
nest. In an instant hundreds Of the
singing insects were upon her. She
ran frantically toward her friends, and
they, after striking at her body with
twigs and articles Of clothing, ian
with small groups of hornets pursuing
them.
Miss Rive was the only one serious
ly injured and she gradually is recov-
ering. In the meantime the Little
River has less standing as bathing
resort than 1t ever had, it being con-
coded that there are some things a
person in bathing togs-or just about
to don bathing togs-cannot well toll

MINING IN OLD OWYHEE
LOCKMAN IS INTERESTED
FORMER coEuR D'ALENER AT
HEAD OF STRONG DEvEL.
OPMENT COMPANY.

Efforts to reopen the OLD Golden
Chariot mine, near Silver City, have
been undertaken by group of Nam
pa men, headed by Jacob Lockman,
for many years resident of this city.
A Nampa correspondent of the Boise
Statesman has this to say of the en-
terprise:
Interest of mining men of this Sec
ton will fer few days and weeks be
centered on operations at the Sinker
Creek tunnel. Drilling work carried on
by the new operators from the point
where the original promoters stopped
has been in progress over a long per-
iod of months. 1t is claimed thta the
tunnel is now right at the point where
the unusually rich vein of the old
Golden Chariot mine should be struck
again In fact the strike is hourly ex-
'pected.
"A party of Nampans interested In
the tunnel project composed of Presi-
dent Jacob Lockman, DR.. George o.
A. Kellogg, r. d. Arnold, V. T. Elver,
James Farley and G. Harvey Moore,
went to Silver City by automobile
Saturday afternoon. They were hope
full that by staying day or so they
may witness the cutting of the vein.
"The history of the Golden Chariot
mine, one of the big producers of the
Silver City district, and its abandon
ment made necessary by the presence
of too much water is well known to
all old mining men of Idaho. So also
is the history of the Sinker tunnel
project on which about million dol
lars was spent by an eastern corpora
ton only to be abandoned when the
seemingly impossible feat of tapping
the great volume of water from be-
meath proved too formidable.
Progress Eagerly Watched.
Engineer Tom Babbett then took ul
the tunnel project which comes into
the vicinity of the big vein 600 feet
below the original workings, and
which is now nearing completion. The
outcome is awaited with keenest an.
ticipations by a small group of Nam
pans, who own practically all the
stock.
During recent weeks all authorized
stock of the company has been sold
! friends and inside parties eagerly buy
/ ing ii up at 10 cents share. Tit
funds thus obtained will finance thu
operations for many months to come
or until the success or failure of tn
great undertaking is demonstrated,
is said"

BLUE SKY" DECISION"
Supreme Court Sustains Law to the
Chaarin of Investment Bankers"

Supreme Court Sustains Law to the
Chaerin of Investment Bankers"
The so-called Investment Bankers
Association of America failed in its
efforts to have the supreme court of
the United States declare the blue
sky" laws passed by the 26 states of
the union unconstitutional. The Rec
ord is very glad that our highest court
took this view of the law for the rea-
son, principally, that it is law de-
signed to protect the ignorant in
vestor The law proved a boomerang
to the "holier than thou" bond selling
fraternity who for the past few years
have been posing as bankers. The In
vestment Bankers association was re-
sponsibe for the placing of the blue
sky" legislation on the statute books
of many states. The officers of this
association evidently figured that this
was good legal method Of putting
the other fellow at disadvantage SO
that the public, with no other outlet
for it's investment funds, would have
to be satisfied with the low interest
bearing mortgage bondsd sold by the
so called bankers. But much to the
chagrin of its sponsors state officials
in carrying out the provisions of the
law let it apply equally to the pro-
moter of bond issues posing as an in
vestment banker as well as to the pro-
moter of mining or oil shares. Evil
IDENTIFY the state officials were aware
of the millions of dollars worth OF
worthless bonds that have been sold
to, investors from coast to coast and
naturally placed bonds in the same
category with the visionary oil wells
distant gold mines and other like
fraudulent explorations designated by
President Franklin OF the Investment
Bankers association.
The Investment Bankers are report
ed to maintain a mud singing propa-
ganda designed to scare prospective
investors away from mining and oil
stocks. No doubt few investors have
fallen" for these tactics but in thu
majority of cases the mud slingint
has started the investor investigating
with the result that mining and oil in
vestments have grown in popularity
These two great industries are too bill
to be affected by such underhande'
methods

New Fields in Arizona.
Muclie Mcdonald is back in Butte.
His term at Deer Lodge expired last
Wednesday and he made his plans to
go direct to Arizona to go to work in
the mines there, says the Anaconda
Standard.
However, there have been some
changes in his plans and he stopped
eff in Butte longer than he anticipat-
ed. Yesterday he met his old friend
and bodyguard, Alexander Mclean,
and the two had reunion.
Some of "Muekie's" Butte friends
are anxious for him to stay here, but
his best friends believe he will do
himself a better turn by starting in a
new field.
In the summer OF 1914 Mcdonald
was head of the mine workers union
at the time it was supreme in control
of the situation here. 1t was he who
led the revolt among the miners at
the Black Rock against the old Butte
Miners union, No. 1, and it was
Muckie who took the active part in
directing the deportation of a number
of leaders of the old union. 1t was fol
this he was later arrested, tried and
convicted. Not until the militia haC
been sent to Butte did Muckie's reigr
in this community come to an end
/ After the arrival of the troops he flee
from the city but ventured back mere
alter and was arrested.
He was paroed for time but dur
ing the visit of Governor Stewart t
Butte he attended one of the govern
or's meetings just before election ant
there started a disturbance that re
suited in Warden Conleys taking hin
back to Deer Lodge.

Dern & Thomas, Salt Lake. The
war has changed the face of things in
the world generally, and in this coun-
try in particular as nothing else could,
and there is such swing to business
that nothing is going to stop it for
years to come. In the meantime, the
great industries have added to their
assets, the mines have prepared for
"a greater output than ever before and
where possible have reserved a great
part of their store of metals in order
to wait a time when advantage may
be taken of the abnormal situation
that will still exist when peace is de-
clared.
This is particularly true of silver
mines, which, during 1915 produced
over 1900, 900 ounces less than during
| 1915, but which received over 10000
600 more for their product. While all
of the metals are commanding close
attention there Is constantly in
creasing interest in silver with a de-
mand from Europe and the far east
which is sure to he augmented when
hostilities cease. There is no question
but that following the close of the wal
there will be a reappraisal Of values
but extraordinary business conditions
will continue and America stands
ready to supply the needs that will
come. When it does come and pre-
cedng its coming the mines of thu
west will be called upon for their ful
quota of the products necessary TO
the rehabilitation of the worlds fin
ances and the industries that hav'
been destroyed. We know of nothing
to which investors can turn their at
| tention with so practical an assuranc
Of safety as is presented in the issue
representing metal mines and thos
of merit in the making.
