FROM ALBA AND WHEREABOUTS.
Thomas Shaw-belter known az Tom
the interchangeable prospector, came IN
from Aida valley and Sylvania mining
district the iOrepart of the week. Tom
represents the storm OF two weeks ago
as having been severe in that direc-
lion. Snow fell in Aida valley 10 the
depth of thirty inches; n. Yer before

BELMONT MACHINERY COMING
We understand that thirty ton of ma.
chinery were shipped from San Fran
cisco ten days ago for the Belmont
mine, and ten or fifteen tons more
were to follow in two or three days
afterwards. The whole is probably at
Eureka by this time. Weber, tho
superintendent, is expected to be at the
latter named place on or about the
18th instant, en- route for this place.
WAY UP.-Owners of lots at BARGE

town lots are held at much higher hg-

costs nothing To ''hold" at inflated
figures, real estate dealers in that burg
are liable to retain their strong grip.

Everything goes TO show, says the
Idaho Apuidnche, that there is a well
organized band OF robbers whose head
quarters are in Boise City, and who
have aecomplices in the various mining
camps OF Southern Idaho, as well as in
Eastern Oregon. A private letter from
Baker City, Oregon, informs us that,
on the 3l>t ult., Superintendent Hyde,
of the Virtue mine, shipped by Wells,
Fargo Il Co.'S Express from that place
4S6 ounces of gold bullion, valued at
$4,000. The de- tination of this bullion
was San Francisco, and it came by way
OF Boise and Silver City. The Boise
City gang of robbers were evidently
informed of this shipment by their &c
completes in Baker City. and planned
the robbery accordingly. Fortunate.

bullion over, and thus disappointed

Iowa in tho Next House.

1t is going to be a matter worth
serious attention this time, if ever,
as to how the electors of Iowa will
make up its Congressional delegation
this year. McDill has announced
that he will go out with this term.-
So will McCrary, the leading member
of the delegation. What will be Mr..
Kasson's course we are not advised.
Tufts, Sampson, Oliver, and Aims
worth are new men. We see talk of
choosing a new man in Mr.. Pratts
place; and also in Mr.. Wilson's. The
House delegation is likely thus to be
of men new, untrled and unfamiliar
in Congressional place. Whatever
the ambitions of individuals, tho peo-
pie of Iowa should try hard to make
up 4 delegation that will need only
experience to MAINTAIN Iowa's proper
influence in national law-making.-
New men IN the place of those not
new are well enough if they can take
as we'll or better the places of these
others. But new men who cannot
fill the older mems places are not so
well.-Reokuk Gate City.
