The Democratic candidate, this time

We have seen q circular rithout sig

around this county. Some Of Its asser-
tions are 10 remarkable, however, that
In spite Of the fact that It has no reeog-
nized paternity, we choose to give
them the compliment and benefit Of

ing to the contract Of Sutro with GER

"Under this encouragement Sutro has

Is one shaft down to the tunnel level,
another nearly so. and two others have
been sunk less than one-third the dis

We submit to any miner that the work

70 the belief that the amount Ia over

not discover any one who had the least appear

make an arrest he knew not where to begin. His
perplexity was, however, soon put to rest by MIR.
