correctly states that silver lodcs increase
in richness in proportion to their depth,

does require ''head work." but II

no long lingering bore like the
Sutro Tunnel. There was a
timo when that tunnel seemed TO DO
needed. but Sutro INDUCED in head
work instead Of practical hand work;
therefore, his tunnel was not commen-
ced until II began to DO seen that II wns
not nceded-that the day Of its useful
ness was past. Ever since then no has
been boring for "royalty" more than
for anything else. Pioneer Miner Of

sary for drainage and ventilation, and

or more. for n hot.air blast from Carson

Mn. Cusurso has just made a porcmp-
tory demand upon the Spanish Govern
ment for full indemnity for tho Nirginius
outrage and for consequential damages.
Il is said that this demand is fully as
peremp,ory as that recently made blythe
British Government in the same matter.
Coupled with this information comes
the news from Cuba that the inability OF
the Spanish Government to subduo the
insurgents becomes daily more apparent,
and that the constantly increasing finan'
cial embarrassment will soon compel a
close Of the war. It is also rumored that
Mr.. Gushing. ut Madrid. Is taking nd
vantage OF the crisis both in Cuba and
Spain TO mako tho United States inter
mediary to insure peace on terms which
shall advance our commercial interests
in the Island.

ALErrKn to the New York Tines from
Wisconsin says that tho railroads are
failing to execute their threats OF ceas-
ing to operate their roads and ignoring
stations where the people attempt to en-
force the new law. While the writer
thinks the law unjust, he shows that it
is the railroads fault. because they with
held information essential to proper leg
islation. Numerous saits are being
brought by citizens resulting in daily
judgments against the railroads in such
numbers and amounts NJ seem likely Ia
secure a surrender by the railroads with
out waiting for the Supreme Courts de-
cision OF the litigation. The war thus
far has had no bad effect on business,
and the general opinion is that while the
law is unjust it is constitutional.

Springfield Journal, q furious champion
Of Logan's imitation views. INDUCED in
some very energetic remarks on thsthird-

State Convention to give such an en-
phatic expression Of its adherence Of

OF Illinois, through its Republican Con-
