The Linn County Coal Co. installed their second electric coal digger last week and the Pleasanton Mining Co. have received their second machine which is being installed this week. Pleasanton now has three coal mines, operated by their own electric power and equipped by electric caal diggers. Parties who know say that in this field the conditions for mining coal by machinery is the best in the west.

There is a soft, fine clay below the coal with a good roof above. This same condition prevails north to La Cygne, east to Worlan i and south "to Prescott. sealJ Julius Gottlieb, ATI ESI Mayor. C. H.

Porter, City Clerk. OO 3 Now the Herald is going to make a suggestion, not knowing whether the party named would or would not entertain for one minute the poposition of building and maintaining an electric light and ice plant in Pleasanton. We refer to Silvio Fallucca, manager ot the Pleasanton Coal Mining Co. Less than four years ago he, accora panied by five or six other young men, came to Pleasanton and without "the blowing of horns and ringing of or even a mention of same in the local newspapers, commenced to slntra coal shaft on E. S.

Abbey's farm, just east of town. Mr. Pallucca and associates asked no assistance from the people of this place, but worked on and on until coal was reached. Today the coal mine is one of the best equipped in the statey all ths latest machinery, electric coal diggers and electric power ot their own which since the' electric plant was destroyed by fire has furnish ed light and power (or Pleasanton, Hume, Prescott and Fulton. Silvio Pallucca has demonstrated that he is a man who can and does do things.

He, with the capital of a good, sharp spade, pick and a will has organized a company and equipped a mine valued at 75,000 without the aid of a penny ot Pleasanton capital. Now if he can do all this with so little capital tor a starter what would be his limit with a backing of Pleasanton's $65,000 which seems to go a begging? Now if the city council and others interested in the future prosperity of Pleasanton could induce this wide awake hustler to take a "hand in the deal" a company will be financed, an electric' light and ice plant erected that will be a credit to our town and on business principle with right and justice to all concerned as 'the motto.

You will be a better individual, a better neighbor, a better citizen and the world will be that much better. Let us help you.
