HAS INTERESTING
LINCOLN PICTURE
POSSESSES OIL PAINTING
OF LINCOLN AS A YOUNG MAN
PAINTERS NAME UNKNOWN
Picture is Different From Any of
the Other Lincoln Pictures That
Have Been Seen Here

Mayor Sam Bridges has an interest
ing heirloom-an oil painting Of Abra-
ham Lincoln as a young man. Mr..
Bridges got the picture after his
mothers death, and its interest to
him is the more valuable because in
her lifetime his mother priced the por-
trait highly.
Mr.. Bridges was exhibiting the pic
ture to his friends during the week
He says that he isn't certain where
his father got the picture, but thinks
he got it while the family resided in
New York state.
The senior Bridges in his lifetime
was an ardent admirer of Lincoln
which accounts for the possession OF
so valuable a work OF art in the
family II has been carefully cared
for all OF these years and certainly
makes a valuable and interesting heir
loom.
The picture shows Lincoln as 3
young man, probably about the time
he started practicing law at Spring
field. The whiskers which are in
variably associated with a likeness OF
Lincoln are absent. and their absence
brings out into more prominence the
striking features OF the great man
The high forehead and prominent nose
seem to stand out more prominently
in the picture Of the young man than
they do in the pictures of the older
statesman and president.
Mr.. Bridges will be glad to show
the picture to anyone who wishes tc
see It at any time. He is unable &c
identify the painter OF the portrait
The mama is on the picture, but he
has never been able to decipher the
letters making up the name. and ht
says his father didn't know who the
author was.

WAR RELIEF ASSOCIATION.

The Office OF the War Relief Asso-
citation has opened on the second floor
OF the Iron County National Bank
with Miss Eva Hoikka in charge as
assistant secretary. Payment OF dues
may be made there any day between
the hours Of nine and twelve a. m,
and between one and six D. m. Ar
rangements may be made a little lat
er TO keep the Office open one or two
evenings each week should conditions
seem to demand ii.
All persons making payment TO the
association should ask for official re-
ceipts. Duplicate copies OF all receipts
constitute an important part of the
records of the association and the is.
suance of this receipt is as much a
protection TO the association as TO
the member making payment.
Every dollar saved in administra-
tion expense means another dollar
available for war relief and TO this
end il seems but appropriate to say
that the responsibility for making
prompt payment OF subscriptions
rests upon the individual members
They should not wait TO be called up
on by collector nor for notice by

spend the funds OF the association in
paying collectors TO remind members
Of their obligations, nor in sending
out notices by mail unnecessarily.

IRON COUNTY
MING VALUATIONS
A COMPLETE LIST OF ALL MINING
ASSESSMENTS OF THIS COUNTY
BIG CHANGE FROM ORIGINAL
Properties Highest in FinIay Ap'
praisaI Have Shrunk in Values
While Others Increased

The Diamond Drill is able to pub
lish a complete list of the valuations
OF the mining properties of Iron
county this week by townships.
The mineral value Is still very
large and overshadows all other valu-
ations of the county by long ways,
but comparison of the values set
the past year with those made by
Prof. Finlay and again with those that
were adopted by the commission after
the Finlay appraisal was made will
show many great changes.
Big Properties Greatly Changed.
This change comes mainly In the
big mines OF the county such as the
Caspian which. as we remember IL.
Prof. Ffnlay placed at valuation OF
six million dollars. That was seven
years ago, and later development has
taught the owners and the commission
much more about the property than
was known at that time.
There has been some additions to
the mineral reserves of the county.
but they have been mainly upon this
side of the county. Among the addi-
tions is the Alpha mines, the Carpen-
ter and Wilkinson and the Fortune
Lake district. In the latter section
the development Just got started
when the war came on and caused a
suspension that will probably last uni
til the war Is over.
We print the list of values by town
ships 80 that some idea may be had
as TO how the several townships stack
up as 10 values.
