DECISION IS GIVEN ON
TERRITORIAL COMMISSIONERS
Juneau Empire, Dee. 8.—By a deci
sion rendered by Judge R. W. Jen
nings late yesterday afternoon he de
cided that no U. S. commissioner had
power nor jurisdictions to leave his
precinct and act as the commissioner
in another precinct.
This decision was rendered after
the arguments on the writ of habeas
corpus sworn out in the case of the
United States against Annie Jones,
had been made. The writ alleged that
the woman was unlawfully arrested
and held, inasmuch as the warrant
was issued by Judge Henson, commis
sioner of the Douglas precinct sitting
in Juneau and signing the warrants
as the commissioner of precinct No.
7, and that he had no jurisdiction, as
he had not been appointed as the com
missioner for precinct No. 1.
By the order on the writ the three
c'ases against Annie Jones, the case
against J. R. Raymond, and the case
against Nick Demerottes, all of which I
had been taken before Judge Henson
were dismissed.
Immediately after the issuance of
the order, Judge Jennings appointed j
A. H. Zeigler as commissioner to act j
until the return of J. B. Marshall !
from Angood, and the warrants for !
the arrest of the three parties named \
were reissued by him. They were all
brought up and released on bail, pend
ing the hearing of their cases at a
later date.

THE DARCY MILL
(Patent Applied For)
Tiie Darcy Mill is designed to meet the need of the mine owner and
prospector who wants to develop his own mine or open up ore bodies with
a view of disposing of ttie property, to work rich stringers of pay ere
to mill and ship concentrates or to try out a property before purchasing
—at as low a cost as possible.
It is not a toy mill or a makeshift in any way but a mill constructed
Oil scientific principles and etiual in efficiency us any stamp of the same
weight. The 2000 pound mill has two stamps of 325 pounds eaeli and drop
at 110 blows per minute for each stamp. The number of blows and the
force of the drop can be increased very easily by placing springs on the
stamp stems or the weight of the blow be increased with additional
weights, which we furnish when necessauy.
It occupies a space 4x4 feet; no piece weighs over 100 pounds, and is
easy to move, pack, or set up, and uses less power and less repairs than
any other. The frame, battery blocks, etc., are made of Washington fir,
strongly bolted witli rods to stand all strains; guides have large wearing
surfaces; in fact the mill is so constructed that any one can handle it
satisfactorily. Shoes and dies are of special hard iron with chilled faces,
screens easily removed—the whole front and back can be removed so as
to get at the shoes and dies. Tappets arranged to clamp on a screw
thread so that the wear can be easily taken up. No expensive machine
work to pay for in repairs, in fact everything about the mill is simple,
compact and durable.
It is the simplest mill to start your mine with, as it is an easy mat
ter to add two or four more stamps or to increase the output by adding
the extra weights without any alterations in the mill.
We can furnish the complete mill or just the iron work, or lease them
to responsible parties if they show us their properties are O. K. We can
furnish engines, concentrators, copper plates, rock crushers, jigs, tables,
etc., at market prices.
A vast amount of ore could be put on the market by using one small
mill for coarse crushing and jig the pulp, which will save the coarse
metals and get rid of the lightest, and the middlings recrushed in another
small mill and this pulp run over concentrators or tables. This plan will
enable a lot of low grade ores to be worked at a profit which it is impos
sible to do In any other way.
Write us if you have such properties or if you wish further particulars.
Yours truly,
H. J. DARCY, West Tacoma

IT’S A REAL PLEASURE
to view the new wall decorations on ('
view here exclusively. They are so
unconventional, so out of the common j
and so unusually artistically attrac
tive. If you plan to re paper you
should by all means see these new T
papers. To decide without doing so j
is apt to result in regret later.
