LEADvlLLE ECLIPSED.

The wonderful resources and prOduc-'
tfonsof the silver mines at Rico, Col,
have aroused nm interest among mining
operations that exceeds the excitement
incident to that which attended the
development of the vast wealth OF the
IIeadviifc district. The discoveries at
Rico began to be developed two years
ago, under the ,tailsmanic. touch of Sen
ator John p. Jones and others, who
had large experience in mining. The
remarkable richness and extent of the
products of the locality were quickly
estimated and arrangements made to
enlarge the means of marketing the
VAST supply of mineral. The prospect
was 80 promising and the certainty OF
probably working the mines SO we'll
assured, that the Denver and Rio
Grade Railroad proceeded to extend
their line to Rico, and in May of the
present year will have trains running
to that place. The town gathered a
population of 5000 In three years, and
has smelters and mills In operation
with more profitable results than are
reported from any other investments OF
the kind In any portion OF the state.
The reason OF this Is the fact that the
mines are better located for econom ical
working than any others in tho silver
producing regions of the Rockies. The
altitude Of the place is comparatively
low, being from s, 200 to 5000 feet, the
supply of water inexhaustabie, and
work can proceed the year round.
Rico is the best self-sustaining min
ing camp now known, as 1t has large
resources of Anthracite and other quail
tiles of the best and most useful coal,
iron, lime, lead, salt, timber, fro clay,
agricultural products, provisions, cheap
freight and other requisites for milling
and smelling minerals ut the lowest
possible expense. Tho camp is beauti-
fully located in the valley lying along
the Dolores river, and surrounded by
those singularly picturesque, imposing
and mineral laden mountains Tele-
scope, Elliott, Dolores and EXpecta-
ton. Pre.eminent in this sroupe of
mines is the Little Sadie. The vein of
this remarkable mine cuts through an
abrupt bluT presenting 800 feet of per-
pendicular surface which can be easily
developed, and does not require any of
the expensive machinery often required
In mining. The situation of this mine
Is so fortunate and the quality of it's min
eral of a character that it can easily
supply n mill Of twenty tons capacity.
The total highest cost Of extraction is
estimated at $3.50 a ton. This mine
and the Royal George Chittenden, and
Raymond, are owned and managed by
the Dolores Consolidated Mining and
Milling Association of Colorndo.-N O.

A lady died Of heart disease In Louis
vile recently, and the family gave per-
mission to II couple of physicians to
hold an autopsy in order to ascertain
the precise nature of the lnafady.
The heart was removed, an examin-
alton made Of its condition and the
surrounding tissues, and when the
explorations had concluded the ply
sicians apparently made proper and
decent arrangement of the remains and
left. Shortly after they had departed
the discovery was made that the heart
had been stolen. Legal advice has
been taken as to whether an action
would lie against the doctors, but the
lawyer is somewhat in doubt, and has
not yet come to any conclusion IN the
matter. As he facetiously remarked
to reporter, il the woman were alive
she could pursue the depredator and
regain her heart or establish partner
ship; but, being dead and no principles
laid down, complicated the question
not little.

EDITORIAL. WORK AND WRITING.

AS with private letters, so with edi
torlals; sometimes it gives one real
pleasure to write them, while at other
times the question uppermostis, "What
shall say next ?'' Usually the pro-
fessional writer, like the well-bred lady
who may be compelled to entertain
bore, can conceal his disinclination and
emptiness by wcll.selccted stock OF
words, and, as papers are read with
very little care, most anything will pass
muster. The fact is, newspapers are
too cheap to be highly regarded, and
yet the brightes gems of literature and
the mightiest thoughts have appeared
in thia humble garb. To do good news
paper work requires not merely pecu-
mary but reasonable amount of 1nornl
encouragement. One ought to feel that
the reader does not measure his mental
efforts with the yard.stick. Precisely
as vulgar rich people purchase the
largest painting with tho finest frame,
and pass by with cOntemptth genuine
gem because it is only u few inches
square, so ignorant people arc apt to
Judge tho newspaper by the size, aud
the square yards Of reading it contains
WITHOUT regard to quality. Sometimes
we dream that the newspaper of the
future will DO that which values the
space of a limo more highly than gold,
and which will prune until the best,
most useful and beautiful remains. But
what can single man = accomplish,
with three papers per week on his
hands, and an Unsuitable demand for
local trivialities to supply? 1t is only
at rare intervals that he can strike his
best gait. ~ i"t. =

AN IMPORTANT CONSIDERATION.
The Chinese are Not Only Mental
LabOrers - They Absorb and No.
ADDolIze.
San Francisco Argonsut

S"N A-SOAaot
The Chinese are not alone mental labor
ers. They are not mere hirelings upon
farms, on railways or in shops. They are
capitalists and employers; they are mer-
chants owning ships; they have unlimited
wealth. The Eastern merchant. manufac-
turer or capitalist, who, in his ignorance
and s~elhshness, thinks this is only a cues.
ton OF cheap labor, will awake to a realiza-
ton Of the fact that it is a question Of
cheap capital and Of cheap goods. The
tariff would exclude manufactured goods
from foreign countries in order to en-
courage home production. To admit I'M
restricted Chinese labor is first to ruin
white labor, and the next and certain re-
suit ia to drive American and European
capitalists from the field, and to place the
Chinese at the head of the leading indus
tries OF this country. Let the business
men Of the East be advised of this fact:
Every industry or occupation upon which
the Chinese enter they absorb and monop-
olize. This has been demonstrated in San
Francisco. The Chinese merchants have
driven Macondray & Co., G. Adolph Low
l. Co., and every one else out

They are contracting to build railways.
And there is no reason why they should
not manufacture woolens, c~ottons, iron
and farming utensils in competition with
New England, New York, Pennsylvania
and Georgia. The Chinese have driven
the Americans, the English and the Ger
mans from their thongs" in Canton and
along the entire Chinese coast. The Chi
nese nave driven English steamers from
the Yang-tsee- Kiang, and now own and
operate the steamships. The Chinese are
now the owners OF an ocean feet for the
Pacific, and there is no reason why they
should not ~monopolize. the Pacific COM
merce. These reflections are intended to
be suggestive Of the fact that interests
other han those Of labor are involved in
this discussion. This wonderful nation,
with its four hundred and fifty millions OF
people. to whom the metallic wealth Of the
commercial world has been steadily flow
ing for three hundred years, is q danger
Gus competitor with every interest that is
American. An uninterrupted flow of this
redundant population to our shores would,
within a limited period, destroy our gov
eminent and civilization, and would sub
stantially change our entire social and po-
litical conditions,

srsEwART-eANpID WORDS.

Judge f. D. Sawyer u. 5. Circuit
Judge, of whose jurisdiction Nevada is
a part, and who is well known through
out this State for his judicial ability,
as well as for the carefulness Of his
speech has surprised the Republican
Club of the Eighth Ward of San Fran
cisco by an honest admission that to the
Democratic party is due the anti Chinese
legislation, the benefits of which the
Pacific Coast will soon enjoy. The Ex-
aminer comments as follows: Mr..
SAWYER is an active member of the Re-
publican party, and has been bonored in
the councils of the organization. At the
last Republican Municipal Convention
he represented the strongest faction OF
the party. and exerted much influence IN
the selection Of candidates. His voice
was constantly uplifted in glorification Of
the record of the Republican party and
prediction of its future achievements IN
the cause of liberty and progress. When,
therefore, Mr.. Sawyer is found denoune-
ing the Republican party, it may be taken
for granted that the organization for
which he so long labored, and which he
so often indicated, has forfeited the
respect of all thinking men who are not
biased by considerations of Office. In con-
demning the dishonest effort of some
Federal employees to give the Republican
party the whole credit Of the antl-Chi-
nese legislation, Judge Sawyer said
No buncombe resolutions OF this kind
can affect the position OF the Democratic
party on the Chinese question. II the
Republicans had been as true to their
pledges as the Democrats the first bill
would have been passed successfully.
There is no use denying this, and l, as q
Republican, acknowledge that had it not
been for the Democrats in Congress no
bill would have passed at any time. What
is the use in denying what the whole
world knows? All the praise, l
say, is due to the Democracy, and no praise
to the Republicans for falling down. l
want all Republicans to know it-they are
not fit to have a Republican form OF gov
eminent. I've heard it from all classes
the LAWYER, the mechanic, the clerk that
had it not been for the Democrats in Con-
gress we would have had 10 Chinese bill.
"This is strong language from one
who has been a stalwart Of the stalwarts,
but the infamous record of the Repubh-
can party on the Chinese bills ~iustities
his Indignation. T~hirty-one Republicans
voted in the House against the passage
of the modified bill. Fifteen Republi-
cans voted in the Senate against the
measure, and only nine in favor of its
passage. 1t is not strange that an intel
ligent Republican should declare the
Chinese bill a Democratic measure,
though it is unusual to find one bold
enough to speak his convictions"
