Some Sheriffs ELECT Can't Take Jobs.

Some Sheriffs- elect Can't Take Jobs.
There are going to be several
men who have been elected to office
who will be unable to fill their
positions because of constitutional
disquali6cations, says Madison
dispatch. 1t is reported that there
are eight or ten men in the state
who were sheriffs, who were can
didates for reelection in the hope
that the constitutional amendment
allowing sheriffs to succeed them
selves would be adopted. While
no official returns have yet been
received, scattering reports from
over the state indicate that the
sheriff amendment has been beaten.
In many instances the amendment
was beaten in the county where
the sheriff was candidate.
The state constitution is specific.
It provides that a sheriff cannot
succeed himself in office. Several
months ago it was believed that
this amendment to the constitution,
abrogating the present rule, would
be adopted. At that time Attorney
General Morgan gave an opinion
that should the amendment be
adopted, present sheriffs, candi-
dates for office and elected would be
able to serve. The result was that
score of present sheriffs entered
the fields. In many counties they
were defeated in the primaries
Many were not and have since been
elected. They will not be per-
mitted to qualify, if it is finally
determined that the amendment
has been defeated, as it now ap
pears.

LOOK FOR OIL.

There is absolutely no occasion for stampede to Cold Bay at this time, say recent visitors to the new oil dis trict, While there are many persons heading for the field few remain there long as there is very little work to be had and living expenses are very high. The only work offered now is unloading cargoes and general long snoring which pays S1 per hour. The opportunity for employment in this line is limited.
 There is feeling of confidence not only in the field itself but in all the westward districts that the first wells sunk will prove to be producers. That there is no doubt anywhere that oil will be struck in the field is the gen eral opinion. The heads of the drill ing crew have hoped to get everything landed in the field within six weeks but it will probably take 90 days to accomplish this. Drilling, however, is sure to begin this winter.

MAYO FUTURE
 IS UNCERTAIN
 SAYS0LDTIMER

The future of the Mayo district is very uncertain, there are more than enough men for all the jobs in the camp, and the country is located for miles in every direction, according to Dennis White and Edward Overend, well known oldtimers, who have just returned to Nenana from the silver diggings at the head of the Stewart river, above Dawson.
 The outlook is anything but encour- aging, they say, with no new pros poets showing and operators skeptical about the permanency of the ore bodies now being worked. The work is being carried on under great diff faculties, with wood and water scarce and the mine work unhealthy, owing to the poisonous dust from the ore.
 The Guggenheims are working at the ton of Keno Hill, IS miles from the nearest wood, and with dust laden snow the only source of water supply. The housing accommodations at the Guggenheim camp are said to be poor, which, together with the fact that the big company is not paying any money
The Cordova daily times., 1922-09-29

on options, has created rather an un- favorable sentiment. The men get $55O and board, but they have to lay off occasionally on account of lead poisoning.
 Livingstone Wernecke is in charge of the Treadwell camp, some distance down the hill from the Guggenheims, and he has made his company very popular, being about the only outfit in the district which has circulated any money for properties. It was an- nounced recently, however, that no more cash would be paid on options. The Treadwells are sinking and are in the ore, but it will not pay to ship. The shaft is down between two and three hundred feet. The Guggenheims are also sinking near the Wernecke camp, in an effort to tap the high grade ore body from which much rich ore has been taken at the top of the hill The Guggenheims are working about 50 men and the Treadwells have nearly that many, some employed in the mining operations and some on the road leading to their camp from the main highway. The Treadwells are sinking two shafts, one by hand and the other by machinery.
 Although a tractor has made trip to the hill from Mayo this summer, the road is bad and it is out of the question to haul ore The output of tine Guggenheim mine at the top of the hill is being sacked and will be hauled over the snow next winter.
 A man named Palmer operates an auto between Mayo and Keno Hill and
The Cordova daily times., 1922-09-29

charges a fare of $14 for the 40- mile trip, with no allowance for bag gage. Pickerel and Greentree, oldtime Dawsonites, operate a pack train.
 Emmett, another former Dawson nan, has a sawnill at Mayo, and pays $o5 a thousand for logs. There is also a dredge near Mayo, but it is not in sight of the landing and nothing was pIss sg punoIs qua pue IIeJ lseI epeu
 There are a number of substantial buildings at Mayo, the log store of the Northern Commercial Company being a model structure.

 to run $2 to the foot.
 The two oldtimers made the trip down river in a small boat, stopping along at the various settlements to survey conditions. Dawson, they say, looks like a deserted city; the main- stay of those remaining in the old town being the tourist trade and the little business that drifts in from the dredge camps nearby. It is a summer revenue from both sources and the winters, in consequence, are very quiet.

MINE MULE DISAPPEARS
 IN MODERN METHODS

WEST FRANKFURT, H., Sept. 29. The mine mule, whose history dates back to the days of early coal mining in southern Illinois, gradually is disappearing just as is Old Dob- bin, the once familiar dray horse. With the gradual disappearance of the faithful hard tail," old miners are preserving for posterity tales of pathos and sympathy for the once essential draft animal of the min ing industry.
 Stories picturing the mule going blind by constantly being kept under ground and picturing the colt born far below the curface are discount ed by the more truth-loving miners as fairy tales and by the mine op- orators as stories whose design is to lend a touch of romance to the early history of coal mining.
 The modern mine finds use for only one mule, that for the distribu- tion of powder after the miners have been hoisted to the surface. This mule is lowered to the bottom of the shaft but brought back up after completing it's work and is cared for in a stable above ground. Electric power is used almost exclusively for hauling coal carts under ground.
 In mines where the mule still is used extensively the animals are brought to the surface frequently In rare instances, it is said, are the mules kept in the pits for any length of time. When work in the mines is suspended, it is a gen. eral custom to bring the animals to the surface where they are kept in pasture until the mines resume op- eratiOn
 The only animals known to breed in the shafts and pits are rats and mice. These little rodents, however, are often made pets of by the miners for the reason that their presence in- dicates absence of gas pockets. AS long as the mouse or rat slips about a certain place, the miner is cer- tain to be free of the gas danger.
