NATIONAL STOCKHOLDERS
TO ASK CALL OF MEETING.

There is strong feeling among
local stockholders in the National
that the company should proceed
with certain prospecting work in
an effort to develop q new ore
body, since there are ample funds
ON hand for the purpose. The an
nouncement of the directors in the
report issued last August that
they had decided ''to hold the
property intact with view of
disposing of it to some one who
might develop a mine in our vi
cinity, or dismantle the plant and
sell the machinery" did not meet
with approval from stockholders
generally. They are not disposed
to pocket their loss without first
utilizing the resources Of the COM
pany to forestall it, 1t has long
been the opinion of men who have
made a study Of the National and
who are capable of passing judg-
ment that with a reasonable
amount of work there is more
than a probability of developing
new ore bodies that may he pro-
fitnbly mined In fact, there are
men now who are ready to take
lease and bond on the National
and spend their own money in
further development, SO confident
are they that pay ore can be
found Under these circumstances,
there is a feeling among
local stockholders, which Is
no doubt shared by those
outside, that the directors should
expend reasonable amount OF
the funds on hand In exploratory
work with this in view, and in
order to get an expression from
the stockholders, a meeting was
held this week at which II was
decided to petition the directors
to call meeting of National
stockholders at an early date.

YELLOWSTONE TRAIL.
Mineral County Sets Pace To Popular
ize Highway.

I<V ItiS'"0y'
A. p. Johnson, of Superior, Mont,
has just completed tour of every
town on the Yellowstone Trail in Min
eral county and has secured subscrip-
tions amounting to $3.50 for the main
tenance of the Yellowstone Trail as
sociation and $3.50 for advertis-
ing the attractions and advantages of
the national highway next year. Mr..
johnson visited Mullan after he had
his work in Mineral county
and conferred with A. o. Riedel, editor
of the Mulan Progress and one of the
persistent good roads boosters of the
county. In the last issue of his
paper Mr.. Riedel states that Shoshone
county has been assessed for the trail
association fund, which has been paid
by Mullan, Wallace and Kellogg, and
expressed the hope that this county
would follow the lead of Mineral and
also subscribe a fund for advertising
as a means of attracting travel through
this county. This is a matter that
should receive the attention of the
board of trade.

IT'S SHERIFF FREEMAN NOW;
SUCCEEDS SCOTT, RESIGNED.

The county commissioners yes
terday appoint Jesse Freeman, Of
wallace, sheriff of the county to
fill the unexpired term Of Jeptha
H. Scott, resigned. The appoint
ment of Mr.. Freeman will meet
the unqualified approval of the
republicans of Shoshone County.
He was strongly urged to seek the
nomination for sheriff in the last
campaign. He has served as dep
uty under Mr.. Scott, and it was
his recognized popularity with the
people, together with his excellent
record as deputy that induced the
commissioners to appoint him
when the vacancy occurred. Mr..
Freeman will Immediately assume
the duties of sheriff.
1t has been known for some
time that Mr. Scott desired to
vacate the office of sheriff, having
pibho W So INV "uoiliSoc SioC-
where, hut an action having been
brought against him by Probate
Judge Weniger involving his per-
sonal and official honor, he would
not consider resigning under fire.
The charge against Sheriff Scott
was that he had made a false af-
fidavit in connection with the de-
struction of confiscated, liquor in
his possession as sheriff. The case
was tried before Judge Woods this
week. Attorneys for Sheriff
Scott offered no testimony what
ever in refutation of the charge
and the testimony presented by
Weniger. After argument Judge
Woods instructed the jury that
the evidence was not sufficient to
convict Sheriff Scott and verdict
was forthwith brought in acquit-
ting him. Having been complete
ly exonerated, Sheriff Scott the
same day filed his resignation
with the county commissioners.

and qualification of his successor.

BLACK BEAR DECISION
ALLOWS 'BERN|ER CLAIM
NEW COM PANY HELD TO BE
BOUND BY ACTION OF OLD
ORGANIZATION.

Since the last issue of the Miner,
the findings and decree have been fill
ed in the case of Peter Bernier against
the Black Bear Mines company, Her
man J. Rossi A. ID. Wallace and L. l..
Brainard, the directors who succeeded
to the vacancies on the board caused
by the designations of Fremont S.
Rowe, f. j. Davey and S. d. LemieuX
in which Bernier sought to enjoin the
company from selling his stock on ac-
count of the nonpayment Of an assess
ment of one cent per share, levied by
the new members of the board of di-
rectors and in connection with which
hearing Messrs. Rossi, Wallace and
Brainard petitioned the court for an
accounting of the claims of Bernier
for $5310 alleged salary as manager
from January 1, 1916, to December II,
1918, the sum of $2097.91 alleged to
have been expended by him for trav-
cling expenses and $1055 cash advanc-
ed to the company. aggregating the
sum of $S462.97.
The case has attracted more than
local attention by reason of the large
amount claimed by Bernier for salary
and travelling expenses, in view of the
fact that during all the time the ex
penses were claimed to have been
accruing the property of the company
has been idle. An abstract OF the de-
cision will therefore be interesting to
the large number of local as well as
outside stockholders.
Company Without Directors.
According to the findings and con-
clusions of Judge Woods, of the dis
trict court, the adjourned meeting of
the board Of directors composed of F..
S. Rowe, F. J. Davey and s. d. Lem
ieux, held on the 9Th day of June, was
void, it having been an adjourned
r.eeting from June s. at which less
than a quorum Of the board were pres
ent. That the election of Herman j.
Rossi A. D. Wallace and l.. L. Brain
ard to fill the vacancies in the board
at the meeting of June by the
designations of Messrs. Rowe, Davey
and Lemieux were void for the rea-
son that the meeting was illegal and
the vacancies were filled by a minority
and that after. the resignation of the
first member of the old board and the
filing of that vacancy, the election OF
the remaining new members was
without authority. While it Is held
that the old board had no right to re-
sign and fill the vacancies created by
their designations at this meeting, Il
Is held that Rowe, Davey and Lem
Iieux having filed their designations
have abandoned their office and ceas
ed to be directors of the corporation.
| Following this conclusion 1t Is helt
that the assessment levied by Messrs
IRossi, wallace and Brainard, follow
ling their election to fill such vacan
cies Is null and void, and the com
pany was perpetually enjoined from
. selling the stock of Bernier on ac
count Of his refusal to pay the as

MARSH HAS EXTENSION
OF FAMOUS OLD VEIN
DISCOVERED ON GROUND lEAS-
ED FROM FEDERAL-REPORT
OF PRESIDENT.

The report Of the Marsh Mines Con-
solidated, issued last Tuesday by Ed
ward Pohlman, president OF the COM
pany, was awaited with much inter-
est on account of the remarkable ad-
vance in the price of Marsh stock and
the persistent rumors that the vein
being developed indicated that the east
vein of the Hecla apexed in the ground
under lease to Marsh. The report Of
the company makes no direct refer
ence to this sensational rumor, but
the following statement evidently re-
fers to it,: 'In addition to the infor-
nation contained herein, another stu
alton has developed recently that may
add materially to the value of the
company's property" The report fol-
lows:
Discover New VeIn.
"Since the last official bulletin to
the stockholders, dated June 27, 1913,
development work has been prose-
cuted steadily with small crew. The
work done since that date has result
ed in disclosing a new and most
promising vein on the Russell claim,
| living south of the Marsh, and which
claim is included in the company's
lease from the Federal Mining and
Smelling company. This lease runs
to July 20, 1926. The new vein lies
parallel to the Marsh vein at a dis
tance of about 1000 feet south, having
the same general strike, and dipping
south about 65 degrees. This vein does
not outcrop.
Increases In Width
'.rhe new vein is now being de-
veloped by tunnel, which was start
ed near the southwest corner OF the
Russell claim, following the vein into

Ivanced about $50 feet, and being at
ldepth of about 200 feet from the sur

POEM TO WRITER'S WORKS

II love the old melodious lays
Which softly melt the ages through,
The songs OF Sponsors golden days,
Areadian Sidney's silvery phrase.
Sprinkling our noon of time with
freshest morning dew.
Yet, vainly in my quiet hours
To breathe their marvellous notes l
try;
feel them. as the leaves and flow
crs
In silence feel the dewy showers.
And drink with glad, still lips the
blessing OF the sky.
The rigor of a frozen cline.
The harshness of an untaught ear,
The Earring words OF one whose
rhyme
Beat often Labor's hurried time,
Or Duty's rugged march through storm
and strife are here.
Yet here at least an earnest sense
or human right and veal is shown;
"A hate Of tyranny intense,
And hearty in its vehemence.
AS IL my brothers pain and sorrow
were my own.
o Freedom1 II TO me belong
Nor mighty Millions gift divine,
Still with love as deep and strong
AS theirs. I lay. like them, my best
gifts on thy shrine.

.DEFUNIAK MAN
FOOLED DOCTOR
BY WATER Cure
GEORGE r. GARDEN WAS TURNED
DOWN SEVERAL TIMES, BUT
MANAGED TO ENLIST FOR FOR
EIGN SERVICE.

George F. Garden, 81 years old, OF
DeFuniak Springs, was the oldest and
most persistent volunteer for service
in the world war in all Florida. Three
times he was turned down on account
of age; the fourth time he won by
means of a trick which he claims legit
innate with the honor of his country
at stake. Months of preparation and
a careful diet did not serve to make
Garden heavy enough for service, but
by drinking ten glasses of water just
before the physical test, the trick was
turned and he was accepted by the
Y. NJ. C. A. for duty overseas.
Dad" as hundreds of men in khaki
knew Mr.. Garden, is just back from
England and France, where he spent
many months with the French. British
and American soldiers. He is one of
three brothers, the youngest of whom
is As, who have served, One brother
is in India with the British royal en-
gineers and another in France.
For 33 years Mr.. Garden has made
DeF'uniak his home, coming to West
Florida from England. and becoming
an American citizen. When the call to
the colors came he was quick to VOL
unteer and in the little photogra phi,
just off of Lake DeFuniak, Mrs. Garden
assumed charge and took up business
life, winning a success chara cteristic
of American women when the nation
was at war.
Something of the record which Mr..
Garden made is shown in the follow
ing excerpts from a letter which he
has just received from G. E. Maple,
state secretary of the Y. NJ. C. A.
MY Dear Mr.. Garden: We have
word from the New York office to the
effect that you have returned to this
country after a term of service with
the army Y. NJ. G. A. / want to heart
lily welcome you back to this country.
We feel that in a very intimate way
you belong to US as the Florida or
ganization, and we rejoice with you
in the great contribution which you
have made for our state toward the
winning of the war.
I'VE are proud of the record which
The Pensacola journal. (Pensacola, Fla.) 1898-1985, 1919-09-13

you and the other men have made,
but would appreciate more intimate
knowledge of the work you did
You will rejoice with us, of course,
that the home work is entering a
period of service the like of which
the country has never seen. This is
due in a large measure, to the splen-
did work which you have done with
the soldier boys, and it will be rgeat
loss to the movement as well as to
the welfare of your community if we
can not in some way continue to have
you related to the ~ program. For
these reasons we hope that you will
assure us hiatt we can call on you
from time to time for such service
as the occasion demands"
