The Pen Game m a Utah Camp

Bingham is thriving camp of miners. A dealer in patent pens recently made his appearance there, says the Salt Lake Fri
 6une, and offered to sell $5 notes for $2 50 A buyer made his appearance in an in- stant. Five-dollar notes selling for g 50 -the excitable portion of the camp were wild. The pen advertising medium placed
 100 Sl bills, 10 s bills, one $50 bill and one $lOO bill, all in separate envelopes in a box, and added number of blanks, to eQualize the percentage, the operator claiming that it was no game, only a means contriyed by himself for the adyer- tiscmcnt of his pens, which, when once used, could not be done without. The principal of the game was One dollar for box of the celebrated Parker pens and chance in the money box. To say that chances were taken would be super tluous. Men who had been counted amongst the "dead broke" of thc camp for years, shelled out as though they were young bonanzas. Animated by the same spirit, all classes vied in their efforts to attract the eye of the pen man. Gam hlers, miners, mechanics, preachers, stale old citizens, and, we regret to say, Juven- ile members of the Sunday School class all clamored loudly for box of the ce.e. brated pens and grab at the treasure box. The excitement was only increased by the operators voice: "Out with your weasel skins; down with your kale seed no catchpenny about me, bsys. am ad- vertising with my jaw, and not my pen" Shaking the box,) "and this is how do it." We'll, to tell the truth, he broke the calnp-but he left us plenty of pens. Men who never wrote bought from $40 to $50 worth of pens. Men of families bought pens enough to last their posterity down to the fifth generation. Pens for sale at half cost price. Large consumers Tn this and adjoining Territories will profit by having thelr orders filled at Bingham.

The Prosperity of Mining Dis.
 tricts.

When tho reputation of a min- ing district rests alone upon the fictitious value placed upon the stocks of few of its mines which are listed in the Stock Boards, as is too frequently the case, that district must expect vicissitudes which will be far from pleasant. Those values are much too dependent on influences out of control of those most di' rectly interested in the welfare of the mines themselves to be altogether agreeable. The de- sires or manipulatiOns of a few operators exercise an influence which is unhealthy to the gener- al prosperity of a group of mines. A disastrous termination to a stock scheme may be fatal to the prospects of 2 whole district.
 This has happened scores oi times, and, no doubt, will con- tinue to happen so long as miners prefer 10 sell half developed mines to working them them selves on Il small scale. Two or three dozen prosperous little mines in district worked by their owners do much more for the neighborhood and the camp than one big one worked by q com sany of nOn-residents.

Tho Sale of the w. P. q.

At the Sand Lot last Sunday, the admission was frankly made made that Kearney's mission to Washington is to sell out the W. P. q. 10 the Democracy for the coming Presidential election. The mass of the membership Of of the Workingmen's party be- long to the mudsill wing of the Democratic party anyhow, and in being relegated into that fold, even by bill of sale executed by Kearney, they will only be going home-the prodigal son return ing to the ranch of his father. But how will this thing suit Mayor Kalloch, who has ever ex. pressed himself as being a repub- lican in national politices? He will have to swallow the dose, and his own political predilec- tions will go down before superior numbers if he wishes to remain in the party. He will either have to abjure the Workingmen ar be swept by the tide into the DemOcratic camp. But politics make strange bedfeIlows.

Sugar from Sorghum.

Crystnlixlng Sugar from Sorghum.
 At tths Cane-growers' Conven. ton, held at St. Louis, December 4, report from Professor Steward,
 of Murphysville, Iowa, was read,
 which cited successful cases of crystsllizing sugar from sorghum
 and Indian corn ny the use of his process. He said the Chinese or Asiati: cane was the best sugar. producing variety in this country
 it can be grown wherever corn is raised. He had obtained from Indian corn from 2,OOO to 2,4OO pounds of sugar to the acre. A discussion of the paper revealed the fact that several members had obtained very different re- suits from the use, of Professor stewards process, and that this process is by DO means the only one by which sugar can be obtain ed from sorghum cane. There was much enthusiasm among the

The "Semi-TrOpic's" sugges- ton that a branch Dead or return Letter Office, be established on this Coast has met with the unan. imous approval of almost all the papers on this coast. Only a few tried to throw cold water on the project and they through the idea 1t was useless to try.
 The matter got into the hands of the House Committee on Post Roads and Post Offices and the plain justice of the idea was so patent that they took il up at once and on last S8 urdays FecoH- mendcd bill for the establish ment of such branch office. Now the bill goes 70 the House for ac- ton. Favorable action there is almost equivalent to the same in the Senate.
 Now let all our papers give one more grand whOop-up to this much needed enterprise and the thing is done. Write a short leader on thesuhject, urge strong ly its adoption and send marked copies to every Member of Con gress that you know and we shall have the establishment.

Lenp Year sn Law.

The year 1880 will be leap year, and in- stead of 3G5 days, will contain 366 days. Inc question " ...Sl,oi Sho 2oI.. and 20sa of February should be counted as one or two days has frequently been a source of annoyance ip hui.ness transactions, and it is we'll to know what Is the law in the case. The Supreme Court of Indiana has decided that these days should be count cd as one. The pith of the decision is in these words:
 It must be regarded as settled in this State that the 2Sth and 2gth days of Feb ruary in every bisextilc year must be computed and considered in law aS one day. It has been held by this Court that the English statute e! Henry LID is in force in this State. This statute, speak ing of the 2Jth day of February. in leap year provides: Conpatitur dies M ct dies prorinae precedent pro ,lnicc die. tAnd that day as we'll as the day next proceeding. shall be computed as one day. This English statute is recognized, as a part of the law governing this State. The ser wee of the summons was not sufficient in law to justify either the default entered or the judgment rendered.
 It is we'll to bear in mind this decision of the Indiana Court. as it has a general application to contracts made during leap year, or falling due in that year. Two months from January 1st extends to Feb. ruary 29th, in 1880, and the same rule ap. plies to every succeeding leap year. The subject is of importance to those having notes maturing at banks in February and March. It appears that there IS no pro- vision in California statutes bearing on this particular point.

years in it's mining development. So disastrous were the results and So shame-faced the schemes that California capital has hesitated ever since to invest in Idaho mines, and the people are afraid of them. Vet the mines are good-far better, indeed, than many in the mark row. Simi- }ar instances nigh ae cited with relation tc >umbef districts.
 A camp to be prHsr -r0us, per- manentIy 50, must q eau b. it's bullion product more lhan on the stock value of it's prominent mines. The fact that a dozen mines of a district are quoted in the market is by no means a sure indication of good times. The fact, however, of weekly bullion shipments, is such an indication. It is to the mines themselves, therefore, that we must look for the basis of permanent prosperity not for what they can be sold for, but for what they can and do produce.

Francisco, Cal.-On my return
 from Globe District I was enabled
 to visit the celebrated Silver ) King mine, located in this coun , ty. and about thirty five mile:
 7o-.n If Florence. I had heard } much of it's great wealth. Fly examination satisfied me that in-
 stead of the report being eXager' lated, the contrary is the fact tn the management Of ihis prop
 4rty much credit is due for th-
 manner in which they have opened it up during the past year. They have, without any expense to the stockholders, sunk fine timbered shaft three hun dred and fifty feet deep cutting the vein proper at three hundred feet. At a depth of two hundred and fifty feet a cut was made through eighteen feet of granite to the hanging wall where the vein was tapped and crossed for seventy eight feet, all solid ore, much of it assaying in the thOus- ands, half of it high in the hun dreds and the rest of it will work to a profit. The same rich ore 1 was exposed where the shaft l passes into the vein and no change is visible all the way to the bot tom. The value of this mass of reserves cannot well be properly estimated, but it assures to those interested the possession, beyond doubt, of great wealth that will outlast this generation. l The ten-stamp mill of the com DlAy has steadily run without ] inte, mission the year entire on pay ore taken from the old work i ings OR the f0ot-Wali side. No i dividends have been declaI ed since last October, but the pro- perty has been and is being open ed and the show of ore now made more than compensates for the delay. Surveys and plans are now being made for a first class thirty-stamp mill at the mine, with the reduction works com plete, to turn out the bullion there. Until this new mill is ready aud in running order the present ten.stamp mill at Picket
 Post will be kept running as at
 present, when the concentration process will be changed to that of amalgamating and the twenty five thousand tons of .tailings con-
 verted into bullion. Everything at the mine and mill indicates
 thoroughly defined policy of eco
 nomy and praticalmaterial result.
 No company on this slope can show a better record in this res pect. Any doubts that prevail ed heretofore regarding the Silver King being a true Assure vein of great magnitude, are now ended. as both walls are fully exposed. They arc of syeni;ic granite and the vein matter is quartz and DOT phry. Much of the ole is most beautiful ruby and native silver. This property has a fair reputa' ton but not near what the show ing made entities it to. Its own CTS may we'll be proud of it's pos- session and at some not distant day Arizona and the Pacific Coast will render to it the position in the mining world to which it is so justly entitled.
