10 SAVE LIVES
HE
Dins
JACKSON, Cal., Aug. 30. One
hundred tent ot earth this morning
snparated the rescue pnrty workliiK
in the underground depths of the
Kennody mine from the entrance to
the 4 800 foot level In the Argonaut
mine, where it is believed ut leust a
portion of the 43 men who huvc
been entombed in the burning mine
since midnight Sunday are trapped.
Remarkable headway has been
' made within the past 24 hours in the
wtrk of attempting to cut through
from tho Kennedy mine. Over iuu
feet of loose rock have been cleared
uway by tho rescue party, and this
morning with hut 100 feet yet to bo,
It is expected tho lower level of the
Argonaut will bo reached some' time
during tho duy or night.
fh a statement to newspaper men
this morning Time Keeper (ioorgo M.
Downing and Underground Foreman
fit..' Clair of tho Kennedy mine said
that everything depends on the un
known chttrucler of the rock ahead.
If hard surfaces are encountered, the
work of the rescuers will be delayed.
If the same character of loose rock
In which the rescuers have been fe
verishly working for the past 24
hours lies ahead, the Argonaut will
be entered during tho day.
. One Hope ltcmuliiH
The rescuers are working In six
hour shirts, 10 men to a shift, and
uru cutting through tho 3000 foot
level of the Kenedy mine.
This will tap tho 4K00 foot or low
eat level of tho Argonaut.
"Practically our only hope," said
Downing, "lies in finding tho mon
In air pnckots In the lower levels
formed by bulkheadlng the entrances
to drlftB, to prevent gus fumes from
the burning mine from reaching
them.
"If tho men had the strength and
presence of mind to bulkhead them
selves In they could Hve for several
(lavs and we may find them ullve."
Ernest Miller, one of the entombed
miners, accomplished a similar feat
in Uiitto, Mont., somo years ago.
when ho saved himself and 25 com
panions from death through sheer
courage and presence of mind. In
the Butte horror, Miller couselled
with his comrades and thoy bravely
set -to work, walling themselves In.
chinking the cracks with mud and ef
fectively cutting off tho gus fumes.
On the fourth day roscuers- reached
them.
. Conditions at tho Bceno of the Ar
gonaut disaster appeared much more
cheerful this morning as the third
day of BiispenBe dnwned. It is believ
ed that the fire In the main Bhnft of
tho Argonaut has been checked. Gns
fumes have censed to Issue from the
Muldcon air shaft and rescue pur-
t'os have descended this shaft, bop
ing to gain entrance to the main
workings of the Argonaut below tho
po'nt where the flame- shave been
ruglng.

Republican County Central Commlt-

Gentlemen:
This Is In answer to your Inquiry
us to my attitude relative to the In
dependent Voters' League.
I was placed on the ticket without
my solicitation, and, Inasmuch as Mr.
Cowglll und myself were both nom
inated by tho republican party I do
not fool that I can run on the Inde
pendent ticket which might raise a
question In the minds ot the republi
can voters as to my loyalty to the
other republican candidate or to the
party which nominated mo.
I believe It is noedlcss to say that
f shall support the republican ticket.
Respectfully,
JOHN II. CARKIN.
