STAKES LEDGE WHICH
 WAS DISCOVERED IN EARLY FRONTIER DAYS

TONOPAH, New, Aug. 12- AftcY visiting nearly every mining camp in the world, C. H. Gam of Pueblo, Colo, has returned to Nevada and staked q silver claim he discovered forty-six years ago near Belmont, Nev.
 In 1873 Mir. Gam, then miner at Belmont, discovered what he believe to be a promising ledge. He made mental note of the spot and re- turned to Belmont, intending to stake the claim soon afterward Instead he left Belmont and visited practically all mining camps in the world, intending some day to return to his discovery.
 Mir. Gam, despite his long absence, went at once to the ledge upon arriv- ing in Nevada.

 der if you mean that you went aneaA about your business. Wages went up and prices went up and you bought Liberty Bonds the first times and y0u helped with the Red Cross and so on
 But it makes me sick to hear c man who never got out of rife shot o( his own front door says that he dlA as much to help win this war as tho man who hopped over in No Manb Land and wrestled with the barbea wire, with machine gun bullets and Bosch bayonets That is plain bunk. You've got good ways to 90 ys&, my friends, before you can say that l here and now call a meeting at tho Opera House this night at 7:30 and let's be there and see If we cart keep this town from acting like an sn- mex of Hun land about this Liberty Bond business.
 Before noon every human being in Jeffersonvilbe heard about 1t Some were angry. some were ashamed, oth- CTS were enthused and the tovA buzzed like a hornets nest.
 A Town Redeemed.
 But a flag here and there bex1a to make it's appearance. Men began to do sums in mental arithmetic. They also began to make up their minds to get to the night meeting. Tho thing was more serious than they had thought. Sergeant Colvin spent . bl1Qv affnrn0pn heard he was headed for his office he hurried out, climbed in the buckhoara and struck out for the country to be gone two days. Colvin made q house to-house canvass of the village He said some stirring things and some tarring things. But Jefrersonville was getting wider awake every moment.
 Jeffersonville didn't like to look at its own actiens, when it became fully awake. The phones were busy that afternoon and early evening The town was making up its mind There was much scanning of ouotas past end present There was much furtive hus. rying to and fro in the early evening.
 Then came 7:30 and the han was jammed early--every seat alled. Tho crowd had hardly settled when Cad Brown rose and walked heavily un the aisle, clambered to the httle staen and raised his hand
 You know what we arc here Due.~ he said. We have been . mighty foolish little town This day we were reminded that we were stiu in the United States. We had been aetinS as though we had forgotten it or sc ceded from it.
 Now, we can make th;s thing aheet and snappy. Blanks have ben lls- tributed. There is 10 uso q sny speeches. Lets put or names devn. raise our part of this loan anA c - talking afterwards!r

 What He Told Them
 'I used to know you all,' he said, lis voice stillinE the hum of conver. ation in the office. but that Is 1eilher here nor there I could call very one of you by name. I came town to this mans town to see what vas the matter with an American community that is so dead in the hell that it has forgotten the war be- lore the wounds of it's own boys have healed l wanted to find out what Is he matter with an American com munity that is playing right into the hands of every Hun who Is still alive and full of poison
 Don't you know that this country sn't out of the woods yet? That we've got big job on our hands over here? That there are over a million Americans still in France and Ger many? Don't you know that you sent hem there to do your work and to do your fighting and that they did what they were sent to do? And don't you know that this community as turned its back on it's own boys who died over there and who are buried three thousand miles from this little town?"
 The crowd stirred uneasily. Men looked at their neighbors Why, the hing seemed different now. It was ike a voice from the half forgotten my talking to them. Had they .ailed? Hadn't they made their word good? Somehow all the indifference about the loan didn't seem so fine and so funny as it had while ago.
 Forgotten So Soon.
 Are you going to desert and forget hose boys over there on the Rhine?" went on the speaker Are you going Q forget the chaps who died in shell holes, twisted with the gas-agony, the boys who were riddled with machine gun bullets, who died remem berinS his little place and knowing they would never see it again? want to tell you that they are watching you from over there. tue chaps who have aot been relieved. They want to see if you meant what you told 'em when they left, that you were back of 'em to the finish A fellow thinks . lot about such things when he is a.ooo miles from home'
 We kind O got a notion, mister soldier than we did our part!" piped a voice from the end of the lobby, as though in explanation and self-de- fense.
 You do, do yci You have, havs you?" said the man in uniform. q wonder if you really think that' You've been hsra at home. You haven't been out c Gods own country You never heard bullet whistle il your life. You Lever swallowed down the gas.l that burns the insides out Of you. You never lay wounded for six cen hours in No Mans Land Yos never missed sleepin in a bed or night durin the war You were never a German prisoner and had your rfbs k1chsd loose from your spine VI

 Then something happened that trove Jeffersonyille into hysterical wakefulness. It seemed that the towns indifference was being rather widely advertised and the time had come when personal and vigorous work had to be done by the district loan committee And the weapon, the very instrument came shaped to their hand.
 He was boyish young soldier, with deep set eyes. He wore wound chevron and the gold service stripes that told of months of overseas serv- ice. And he hated stacker and he hated Hun and he had no patience with the mouthy l who loved to carry morbid tales. who loved to hint at troubles between the Allies. And few years before he had lived h JefYersonvilie and he knew every man and woman il 1t and most Of the chti- dren.

 Chance. aided by some design, sent him to JeffersonviIle the Liberty Loan drive for the Fifth and the last of the series was turning into the home stretch. It was the business of Sergeant Colvin, late of the tn Machine Gun Battalion. to find what was ailing the old hometown folks.
 He believed tn frontal attack. The fl st man he saw was Gid Brown. banker and req. estate man. the head of the somnolent loan organization. He waved aside all congratulations and inquiries and plunged straight in What is the matter with this loan of yours, sir?' and there was a snap and click in every word
 Well" began the banker man. the town doesn't seem to be very much interested this time--
 You were interested last July. weren't yoa?" asked the Sergeant Interested when it looked like tho Hun had the Allies down!"
 Yes. we did right weli thea
 Cant this town do anything unaen it is scared into it!" asked he soa- dier You could see this bank in the hands of a bunch of Huns last year and your vaults being cleaned ont. Do you forget that quick? Do you have to see a bunch of Germans on the horizon before your patriotism begins to work? Now, let's get busy. Don't you think you could round up bunch of the workers this afternoon and let's get started?"
 Sergeant Colvin headed for the Post Office, The mail was in and the crowd was dense in the little lobby He couldn't see poster or hand bill.

The Primary will soon b here and
the Democrats will be called on to
select the men who are to compose
the next State ticket. Christian
county will have a real interest in
the primary because of L. E. Foster
who is a candidate for Superinten-
dent of Public Instruction on the
State Ticket. Aside from his quail
fications for the position, he is the
only candidate from the second con-
gression District for a State office
who is making an active fight, and is
one of the few candidates from the
western section of the State. There
fore, for the party's sake Foster
should be nominated, and all Demo-
Gratis in this county should line up
behind and give him an unanimous
vote. His nomination is conceded all
over the State and his home county
should make an effort to get out ev-
cry vote for him.
Both the Carroll and Black organ
izations is this county are united on
Foster and want to see him nominal
ed regardless as to who is nominated
for Governor.
T Don't forget to vote for Foster.
