C. L. LIGHT FOR
COUNTY ATTORNEY
Says to the Voters ~of Seward
County:

Says to the Voters Nof Seward
County:
When / announced my candidacy
for reelection to the Office of County
Attorney there was little or no OPP
position to my having the Republican
nomination. Since that time, howev-
err, Mr.. Gaskill has withdrawn from
the Probate Judge race and came out
against me.
In asking for my second term, l
respectfully refer you to the records
of the County and to any Of my Off
cial acts, and request that you make
investigation and satisfy yourself if l
have or have not done my duty.
The records show that the amount
of money actually paid into the
school funds, as fines together. with
the fines assessed for which there is
good and sufficient bond for the pay
ment thereof is greater than the total
amount of my salary for the period
of my term of Office which record has
never heretofore been equaled.
am taxpayer and personally in
terested in your protection as a fell
low taxpayer.
Since the enactment of the Selec-
tive Service Law and the organiza-
ton of Local Boards, / have been
closely connected with this Local
Board as Government Appeal Agent
and since Mtfch Of this year / have
had the personal supervision of all
the records and work Of the Local
Board and at this time, because of
the extremely heavy work in connec-
ton Herewith in addition to the regu-
lar duties as County Attorney, it is
impossible for me to give much time
to securing the nomination without
sighting some of the duties incum-
bent upon me to perform. Every
father, mother, relative or near
friend of the boys now in service
realize that now is the time, if ever
it was or will be, that every person
should put forth every effort and
resource for the support Of the gov
eminent, and this cannot do and
conduct thorough, personal cam
paign for this nomination. 1t there
fore requires a sacrifice Of either my
political desires or Of my duties and
the latter will not slight. I could
have circular letter mailed to each
voter, but / can better spend the
postage for War Stamps or give it
to the Red Cross.
In doing my sworn duty for the
past eighteen months, have per-
| haps made few of the right kind of
enemies.
AS to reports about me such as,
That / have taken an interest in any
other local candidates success, etc.,
l denounce as absolutely erroneous
and false. 1t would be foolish for me
to do so or even attempt it in any
other persons interest when do not
have time to give my own candidacy
personal attention.
| am at the mercy of my friends
for the nomination for my second
term and am depending upon you to
support me without requiring me to
sacrifice my interest and yours in TAX
ing the time from this important
work and making each voter person
al visit.
| therefore request that each voter
at the Republican Primary consider
this as a personal solicitation for his
or her support at the Primary August
9th.

CHROME DEPOSITS.
This Section Rich With Mineral
Essential In Manufacture
OF Shells.

VI 6hlt1kSs
Chromite, a mineral invaluable
for war needs from the fact that
every shell must be tipped with it
and every piece Of armor plate coll
tain it, can be produced at the rate
of 10000 tons year from unde-
veloped deposits close to Philadel-
phla, Representative Robbins, of
Pennsylvania, told the house of
representatives at Washington dur
ing debate on the mineral bill re-
Gently.
The bill Is the result of urgent
recommendations from the interior
department and the shipping board,
and is designed to encourage the
production Of war minerals present
in large quantities in the United
States but hitherto largely imported
from other nations. The shipping
board estimates that development of
native deposits Of chromite, man
ganese, pyrites, graphite and other
minor minerals would free 100000
tons of shipping for use in trans
porting troops and war materials.
Government control of all new de-
velopments Is provided.
Quoting from report by F. Lyn-
wood Garrison, Philadelphia mill
ing engineer of wide reputation, MIR.
Robbins told the house that prior to
the civil war large quantities of
chrome were taken out of the
ground in the Barren hills district of
Lancaster county, adjacent to the
Maryland border.
In late years Lancaster county
mines have filled with water, and
lying in an almost uninhabited Sec
tion, were almost forgotten until Mr..
Garrison made recent survey. In
his opinion, past workings have
hardly touched the surface Of the
deposits, which, he says, twill easily
produce 10000 tons per year of
chrome ore of the very highest
quality"
In the opinion of Thomas F.
Donelly, a New York mining expert,
the ore could be mined, prepared for
market and transported four miles
to the railroad at cost not exceed
ing $40 a ton. Chromite is now
fetching from $40 to $50 a ton, and,
due to the scarcity Of the product
and increasing demand, is steadily
rising in value.
In 1913, Mr.. Robbins told the
house, about $4,000 tons of chromite
were used in this country, of which
all but 255 tons, less than half of /
per cent, were imported, mostly from
Asiatic Turkey. The average price
was SIG a ton. Last year 100000
tons of chromite was used and the
demand not met. Cutting off the
Turkish supply resulted in importa-
tion of inferior ore from South
Africa and French Oceanica and the
development of low grade deposits
on the Pacific coast. The Lancaster
county ore is said by experts of the
geological survey to be superior to
any other chromite in the country
Beside its war uses, chromite is
invaluable in leather tanning and in
dispensable in the manufacture of
any steel where extra hardness and
non-fusibility are required. The
Eloctro-Metallurgical Company, of
Niagara Falls, has informed the war
industries board that it must have
$4,000 tons of chromfte during the
next year, demand which. at pres
ent cannot possibly be met.
