We are rejoiced to know that harmony
has been restored among our Republican
friends. Conner and Wren have compro.
missed. Tho latter takes ten Of the dele
gates to the State Convention from this
county and the former FIVE. Both sides
claim a triumph. Wren gets the big end
of the delegation, while Common has PLAYED
lucky to get any at all. He was without
money, and it seemed almost certain that
he was to be- distanccd in the primaries.
To get shut out here would leave him with
u standing in the Convention. Major
Wallace is a Bcaconsficld in politics. Fear
ing defeat in the primaries he had o
to diplomacy. Hence the compromise.
He now asserts hat Conner will 60 into
the Convention with more votes
than any other named candidate.
He is promised forty from the
West, which, with the Nye delegation
and the five from Eureka, will give him
about so votes. No other aspirant for
Governor can muster as many on the first
ballot, and when the dropping Of favorites
shall he in order, it is contendcd that the
Generals acquisitions will give him the
baggage. II these estimates and specula-
tons be correct. it would appear that our
friend Wren had got the worst Of things.
The glittering bait of ten to five held out
by Major Beaconsficld was eagerly gulped
by Colonel +. p. Gladstone. We are sur
prised and mortified at this, because VIC
were wont to view Colonel Gladstone as
one Of the leading diplomats Of the age.
We bow in humiliation over Colonel Glad
stones defeat, while lifting our hat in ad-
miration Of the splendid diplomatic at
tainments OF Major B~eaconsfeld.

The last number Of the Engineering and
Mining Journal at hand has the follow
ing: "We have reported sales Of about 400
tons Of common lead at 3kc., which is
still tho market price. In this number of
our paper we publish another letter from
our correspondent, who has visited Colo
RADIO with the express purpose OF stud,in
the production OF lead in that State and its
bearing upon the lead markets OF the
United States, md. i'll fact, OF the world.
He says that for the present the limit has
been reached at which lead can be pro-
duced with living wages for the miner,
but that in the future the cost Of mining
and marketing may be reduced. Such be-
ing the case, il is but safe to predict that
those who nave mines and can not profit
ably produce lead at the ruling market
price will speedily introduce these econo-
mics necessary to enable them to do 80.
Mines will nave to be opened up under the
advice Of good mining engineers, and upon
such a scale as to insure every possible
economy, and prooer pumping and hoist
ing machinery will have to be erected. ii
material awaits transportation, it can not
be long, even in these times, until rail
roads will be built to transport it. We
have heard the cry Of no further cono-
mics can be introduced applied to many
industries, and we have steadily seen re-
ductions in cost surprising the cxpecta-
tons Of those who expected the most.
The success of the lead industry, like that
Of some other branches Of trade, is de-
pendcnt in the fnture upon the employ
ment Of brains, and not mere brute force.
We have seen evidences Of mines and fur
naces worked by skilled engineers oper-
ated successfully, while those about them
were losing money. 1t is being done to-
day, and can be continued in the future.
There is but one thing that may check the
production of lead, and that is the inability
to induce capitalists to invest a sufficient
amount of money to open up the mines
properly, erect suitable reduction works,
and construct the necessary lines of trans
portation. When We speak of introducing
economies, we do not wish to be under
stood as meaning that the poor miner shall
stand more than his share. Lead, in con-
nection with silver, can be produced
largely aud proftably in the West. And
this will certainly ente~ ~ q very impor-
tant element in the rcs ulation OF the lead
market OF the future"

Some OF the Lucky Ones About
Town 80 The Pharophiiosopher
Wfso wouldn't Invest.
From the Virginia Chronicle.l
The GROWERS assert that the rise in stocks
does not make the times any better. As
fast as lucky operators clean up they rush
off to San Francisco or the lakes to spend
their money, and some are in such a hurry
that they do not even settle their small
bills. A good many Comstockers who as
serted that Sierra Nevada was going to $500
a share could moi resist the temptation to
realize at s35 and $40, and get out with a
handsome profit.
A coupleof Dalian vegetable dealers on G
street realized Sill 900 on n lot OF this
stock which they had bought at 81 Is q
share. They gave their store away to o
friend, and will start for sunny Italy next
week.
A man who was dealing faro over tho
Ell Dorado saloon bought some Of the stock
at IS, and induced everybody around the
game to go in, except one man, who said
that faro was good enough for him. All
had sold out last Saturday at S37, and are
going off to have a good time. The man
who didn't buy was q ~case-keeper, who says
that he hasn't called the turn in three
years.
Numbers CT people who passed for poor
folks, and we're always ranked as such, are
now coming to the front, and pulling
money out of old stockings to invest. Cap
ital is coming ont Of its hole with a ven-
geance. and S20-pieces are swarming like
flies who rush to fit ~joyously in the warm
sunshine, or stick in the seductive molas-
ses jug, may be. 1t is a noticeable fact
that most people who buy take as
much as the margin will allow, and take
the desperate chances Of making or break
ing with the next jump of the market.

In Settlements.
A few months ago. says h Virginia
Chronicle, a man owing a saloon-keeper in
this city $50 for liquor, offered him 100
shares Of Bodie stock in payment, remark
ing that it was the best he could do. The
saloon-keeper secured" considerably, but
took the stock, valued then at 40 cents per
share. and gave it to his wife. On the 18th
of June he noticed that Bodie was quoted
at SO per share. and concluded to sell.
He asked his wife about the stock, AID she
looked over a lot OF old papers, but was
unable to find it. Meanwhile the price
went up higher every day. and when 1t
reached S25 the husband and wife were
nearly crazy because they couldn't ind tho
stock. And still 1t went up a dollar or
two, and the higher it got the maddcr the
unhappy pair grew. One day the husband
noticed his little boy working on a new
kite. He had finished FASTING the paper
over the frame, and was about to paste
some ''pretty pictures" on the face Of the
kite. when his father came along. A hasty
glance showed the old man that the pretty
pictures were his lost Bodie stock. He
sold his 100 shares that very day, and
cleaned up 50, 500.

SEPARATED ny SPIRITS.
Experience of n Base
Range Couple.

Range Compile.
A strange domestic disturbance, located
in a family whose place of residence is
within that scope Of territory popularity
known as the Base Range, fell prey to a
SENTINEL reporter yesterday. The cause
Of the trouble in this otherwise happy
homo is novel indeed, being out of the
usual order Of such matters. The gentle
man and his wife live alone, and while he
fondly cherisbcs his better half, as she does
him in return, they are both Of the opinion
that they will be compelled to separate,
which, should it occur, will be one Of the
queerest cases that has ever come to light.
The wife, whom he married several years
ago, has, within the past few months, de-
veioped into a spiritual medium and so
troublesome has this become to the hns-
band that he admits that, in order to find
peace and comfort, lie will be compelled to
leave his wife, whom he adores above all
other creatures ON earth.
She, too, looks at the matter in the same
way, and il free to confess that there will
be no peace for them until the separation
occurs.
The spirits manifest themselves unbid-
den by her, and. while they do not particu-
larly brighten, prove nevertheless a source
Of great annoyance to her and her hus-
band.
The furniture is hauled about the house,
the bed on which they sleep is tilted, and
a thousand other mischievous pranas are
played by them, greatly to their mutual
annoyance.
At first the husband was Mortified by
these nightly visitations. but he soon came
to regard their nightly visits as n matter Of
course. although his dislike to them con-
~stantly increased.
The spirit that cause the greatest dis
turbance is that Of a young man who was
his rival for the hand Of his wife, and which
Insists on their separating, having COM
municated TO the medium the fact that it
will never give either Of them peace or
quiet until they do so.
The gentleman is a respectable citizen
and his wife q most ostimable woman. and
they had kept the entire matter a secret,
hoping that the annoyance would cease,
but the spirit in question became more
violent each night, and he and his wife
have mutually agreed to live apart for a
while, Mt least,

His calling is that Of an industrious, hard
working stonemason, and he always does
his work we'll. We have known him for
seventeen years. He is a first-class me-
chanic. He never sought Office before.
