ARRIVED SAFELY.

Messrs. Il II aud M. E. Knapp Re.
turned yesterday from their prospect.
ing trip to the Saw-Tooth range.
They had been in that country sever
a weeks and think they have found
some rich quartz lodges at the head of
a stream they named Silver creek,
about nine miles this side Of Stanley
BASIN. At that place there has been
a great land slide, and the bedrock
LAIN bare for the distance of about a
mile, ana IN that space there is a large
quartz belt, averaging ledge to
about every thirty feet. Being in
danger of an attack from Indians they
only took time to make one location
That was on ledge f about twenty
feet in width They brought III some
'of the ore. which is about the average,
and had it assayed. 1t went $40 in
gold and S4L67 in silver. They start
ed with some pieces a great deal rich
er than that they had assayed, but
lost them on the road The rock, they
think, contains enough lead for smelt-
ing. Many of the other lodges in the
belt look to be equally as rich as the
one located. 1t is the opinion of Mr..
Henry Knapp, who is an experienced
Iminer, that that place will, in time, be
Iproven a quartz district Of great rich
ness. The boys, luckily, in coming in
saw the notice posted on the Cape
Horn House, warning travellers TO be
cautious, as man had been killed
there and the country was full Of Indi,
ans. When obey arrived at point
in the timber about two miles this
side Of the house they discovered IN
dian tracks near the trail, Taking 10
the mountains the boys travelled on
/ the east side of the trail, and did not
venture to enter it again until reach
ing the lakes, several miles this side.
The tracks had been been made in the
frost, and only a short tinc-an hour
or two at the farthest-bctorc they
were discovered. After following them
a few yards they save where one had
crossed the trail, making track in
the dust that was readily distinguished
rs that If red skin. The notice
posted on the house was the causc
at their cautiousness, and most likely
the saving Of their lives, as no signs
of Indians were seen on tile trail
where they again entered Undoubt-
cdy thc Indians had preceded them
and watched from the thick brush on
the sites Of the trail FOR their ap-
ploach, but were disappointed.

The Hole Down which Went
S3OJ 900 900.

The enormous sum Of 1905, 900 900 has been
spent on the United States navy since the
close Of the war TO suppress the rebellion.
What navy have we To show for it {!
We have eleven monitors that might pos
-ibly be- used to protect harbors on a coast
line Of 12,0OO miles. Also we might got out
upon the ocean for warfare of destruction
twcnt y-four steamers, none Of them faster
than twelve knots an hour, none Of them
ronclads We might have these to capture
merchantmen with, until such time as our
adversary tore them to pieces one after the
other with long-range guns on swift cruis-
ers. Those thrtv-llvc vessels are all we
possess available for war. In other words,
we have no navy. We have only huge
sink hole, down which s3Oj, OO0, 600 Of the pco-
| pies earnings have been flung.
Admirals, secretaries, and chiefs of hui
reaus sit around this sink hole, looking as
innocent a lambs and when asked why
| that enormous amount Of money has not
given the nation n magnificent navy, in
stead Of Immediately committing suicide
from shame and II sense of criminal dis
honor, they commence talking with n care
less sweetness that only life pensioners can
attain to, and n scientific charmingncss that
only Ignorance can reach, about the United
States navy Of the future. But our money
| our three hundred and five millions what
| have they done with it
The naval secretaries, admirals, commo-
! dorc-, and chiefs Of bureaus look down the
| hole, and look up at each other with half
| closed inqusitiyc eyes, and then hang over
| the hole again in imboclc intentnoss and
| guilty silence. That is their answer: and it
is all the answer the people win get.
Men Of the Forty-hth Congress- the
| people are tired of this sink holol You
| have a hHhit of calling Il the United States
navy. They are tirod Of This couselcs4 waste
Of their hard-olrucd money. Tho people
want this hole filed up. To this emf, they
want their useless navy abolished, and it,

Rally a!

The issue before the popular t!a.ch Of
Congress is 90 plain that there is no posi-
bility Of installing it. II i whether tn
most precious provision Of the Constitution
o! the United State, that which secures to
the citizens the right, at stated periods, e.
elect their own Chief Magistrate, shall bc
preserved against the approaches Of Fraud.
This is the issue, and on the one side or the
other Of this issue every Representative
must take his stand unless, like the trcach-
erous coward, WILLIS, he runs away!
Now is the time for the friends Of our free
Institutions TO rally TO a man--to be present
ut every vote, to answer to their names, and
to answer on the side OF the country and the
Constitution.
So the frierds Of preserving the Govern
now to encourage and cheer their Represent
atiycs in Congress in the good fight. The
HAYES men have 50 much at stake that they
will leave no effort untrcd to check the in
vcstigation ut every stage 70 carry it
through successfully the most stirring evil
dcnces Of the demands of public sentiment
should he constantly forwarded to Congress
There could be no greater cause to contend
for than the saving Of the right to choose
our own rulers. It IS worthy Of every cxer-
ton that can be made in its behalf All
honor to the brave men who lead and the

ADJUSTMENTS.


The Aimee troupe brought out Los
Cloches dc Bonneville" on Monday evening in
the Park Theatre. This opera. written in French
by Robt Planquctte. clearly bears the stump Of
Galic vivacity. and would belong strictly to the
list Of operas touffc except that II lacks the
pquant spice Of wickedncss and keeps well
within the boundaries Of propriety.
How much the success Of "a COMPOSER depends
on the singers and actors who bring out his
compositions was made evident hy the Aimee
troupe last evening. who developed the resources
OF this operetta So cleverly ns 10 make almost
an absolute novelty Of il. The life and talent Of
this company are so Spontaneous and natural
that they move the coolest audience.
Mile. Aimee aG Sep0isiie has added another
to her long list of successful roles. and her as
sistlnts Wed with her ia rendering with ami
nation its many pleasing melodies.

WHY there il Such Suffering.

There are great and earnest complaints OF
suffering from every part of the country.
The bitterness Of poverty IS felt az Amcri-
cans never felt it before. While To those
who observe on the large scale there is evil
dence Of some general improvement in the
condition OF business. to the sufferers them
selves nothing is evident except the con-
stancy and intensity Of the evils they have
TO contend with
who IL responsible for this condition
What has caused It? Let us recall the facts
The worst Of the crisis had passed, and ev-
crythlng was rcvivlng up TO the day In No
vcmhcr 1876. when fear was thrown over the
country that the change in political parties
and the reforms in the Administration.
which the people had been expecting, and
which they had voted for were to be
snatchcd away from their possession. AS
long rs they felt sure that Mr.. TILDEN was
to occupy the White House, they were full OF
courage, and there was constant progress
toward better state of affairs; but
as soon rs they perceived that the
fruits OF the election were to be put
In danger through fraud, and when
threats Of revolutionary methods werc
loudly promulgated ms already determined
upon to make Mr. HAYES President, their
courage disappeared and business and in
dustry were struck by paralysis. Finally
when the thing WIS actually done. and
HAYES. not having been elected, was in
stalled rs President in the place of the
man who had been elected this paraly-
sis became chronic, and all efforts for its re-
moval have rs yet proved inadequate.
This Is what has prevented the recovery
of the country. and this Is what has car
ricd 50 many honest. industrious people to
the verge Of bcggarv, IL not beyond it.
Re,stnblish the Constitution give back
to the people the right To- elect the President
prove that the Republic is strong enough to
reverse peacefully and legally the great
wrong that has been put upon II, and the
prosperity We are now deprived OF will soon
be restored
