learn lust how it was to he ac'
complished and when it could be
done.
II. Fl Ivy, in speaking for the
Wolf Greek citizens, introduced

and named him chairman of the
meeting. Mayor Riley explained
the nature of the meeting and
told what the Mansfield district
was trying to do for Wright
county. H. told of the opera
tions being done here, of the
work that was to be done, and
what was needed to make the
district a success.
G. O. Storm, general manager
and secretary of the Mansfield

He said that H., hoped to see the
Wolf Creek district developed

everything they could to get 1t

of this district from the railroad
and the inability to get drills at
the present time.
Mayor Riley next introduced

leasing this land and the royalty
which could be paid by the mer

railroad and supply stations
this district would have to b.
developed on a much smalle
royalty basis. He stated, how
ever, that the mining Interest,"
only asked the citizens desirin,

way; give them time for real de
velopment and that they woul
then know whether this distric
was to be a paying one or not

tached to the mining business
of the large sums which must b
paid out before the operator Ca

those who wished to lease thei
land to investigate the leases, til
companies they wished to leas
to and study the proposition owe
carefully. He also stated ths
the person who l. ased lard wa

could till the land as before, an
that the only injury done to I'll
land was just temporary injur

that if the Wolf Creek citizens
wished to lease their property
and be willing to give the mining
companies time to develop it
right, the companies would be
willing to lease.

Perdido Bay is a part of Florida
and is subject to tax assessment in
Escambia county, according to a
statement of County Attorney r.
Pope Reese. to the board of county
commissioners yesterday, and at Mr..
Reese's suggestion resolution was
presented by Commissioner Sober
lind and adopted, authorizing the tax
assessor to levy on the Lillian
bridge, which has recently been com
pleted by Charles r. Barclay, and
which until now has been subject to
the jurisdiction of Baldwin county,
Alabama.
<r. Reese said tire is a very gen.
eral belief that Perdido bay is in Ala
bama, but that in fact the Florida
boundary line, established under
French and Spanish treaties, and
used as a basis for division when
the state was coded to the United
States, extends to tide water on the
west bank of the river.
The attorney stated that valuable
fisheries are located in the river. and
that with present and future devel-
opment the line should be fixed and
settled, so that no further difficulty
might result.

In the light of experience The tail

there is nothing to equal It for giving
general satisfaction. Some other fab
RIGS make suits as durable and as
good looking but they do not seem to
fit in everywhere and against any sort
of background as wool does. How
ever, there may come time when
there will be no wool to spare, after

The most noteworthy Of these mate

Aeavy, silky fiber that is strong and sup
