THE democratic county convention is

THE democratic county convention is
called to meet on the 28th inst. The
republican convention will probably
meet on the Both. The prohibitionists
intend to put ticket up also, but
choose to wait until the other parties
have their tickets in the field, and if the
material suits, will select from the can
didates of both parties. The convention
held here last week did not make any
nominations, as was announced, but
adjourned subject to the call of the
chairman. On very close election
there may be enough prohibition votes
cast to effect the result. But most of
those constituting that party have not
yet been weaned from their allegiance to
the old parties with which they have
acted so long and in local matters will
vote as always.

AT WHOLESALE.

A word to dealers: We always carry a
very heavy and well assorted stock of
goods in all of our several departments
grocery, clothing and dry goods; we pay
for everything as soon as received; we
dispose of great many goods; we are
always ready to pick up bargains, conse-
quently we have every advantage in buy
ing that anyone can have. This season
we have laid in an unusually heavy stock
having been tempted to make additional
purchases, through being offered special
inducements in prices.
Our retail prices being SO low that they
do not leave much of a margin, we can
not make as great difference to dealers
between those and wholesale prices as
others may do, but this should not be
considered as much as the actual prices
we ask of dealers, for the inducements
We hold ont to them are such that many
are taking advantage of them now, and
those who do not. should give us trial
and be convinced that it would be for
their benefit to deal with us.

Since the strike in the Queen few
days ago the vein has widened out
from three feet to six, and Supt. Brown
has just delivered his first lot of ten
tons Of ore to the mill. He is now
working about twenty men and will
increase his force as fast as there is
room. He says he is able to take out
now from twenty-five to thirty tons
per week and within ninety days will
be able to take out at least twenty
tons of ore per day. that will average
say 900 ounces. He has ordered with
all possible dispatch I 700 feet of T
rail, new dump cars etc. 1t will be
remembered that tie drift in which
the strike was made is sixty feet from
the surface. and that there is 1ao feet
of shafting below this drift, Mr.. Brown
now proposes to start another drift
sixty feetdarther down, so that when
the vein IS cut in this drift they can
stope from below and above.

Sometime ago we had an accession
to speak of the anthracite coal on
Slate River as not being as good
quality as that discovered on Anthra-
cite Creek, which, however, was a
mistake. Our intormants were parties
in Gunnison, who claimed to be using
Slate River anthracite, when the fact
was known they had never had any of
the anthracite, but simply the soft
coal similar to that found in Mt.
Carbon ; also an engineer on the road
thinking that he was using what we
called anthracite did not think it
come up to the standard for hard coal
when really the railroad has never
consumed ton of Slate River anthra-
cite on their engines. We have a
large specimen on our table that comes
from Mr.. Howard Smiths bank, that
is very similar to our Anthracite
Creek coal. Mr.. Smith is now taking
out fifty tons per day that is being
shipped to Denver and other points
out of the county, none of it ever
having been put on the Gunnison
market.

Mr.. Teller has lately introduced
resolution in the United States Senate
to the effect that the Secretary of the
Interior be, and he is hereby directed
to inform the Senate whether further
legislation is necessary to open for
settlement, under the pre-emption law,
that part of the Ute Reservation in
this state not assigned to the Southern
Ute Indians by the provision of the
act of June 18TH 1880; also, whether
the land on which the Ute Indians
are, by the provisions of said act to
be placed, is suitable as permanent
home for the said Indians.
The question would naturally arise
who is Senator Teller representing
the Ute Indians or the people of Col
orado. Certainly it plucks another
star from Mr.. Teller's crown towards
success provided he expects to be
candidate for reelection next fall,
for the resolution is IN direct opposi-
tion to Senator Hills enabling act
introduced some weeks ago, the text
of which we published two weeks ago,
and also is in direct opposition to the
best interest of the people of Gunni-
son County. 1t appears that when
Teller and Belford went to Washing
ton last fall they were in favor OF
having the reservation thrown opea
Immediately, but tarslghted property
owners saw that if that was done that
prior locators would have no protec-
ton, which caused Hill to introduce
the bill legalizing prior locators and
pre-emptors, thereby preventing end
less litigation, which was sure to
follow in the event that we do not
have the protection of Mr.. Hills bill.
As the matter stands now the opening
of the reservation may be delayed
unless different steps are taken.

1t is plain to be seen that there is
discord smong our Washington rep
resentatives, for nearly everything
proposed by Mr.. Hill is bitterly op-
posed by Mr.. Teller. While Teller
may be an orator and a statesman,
and better calculated to address the
House, Mr.. Hill can command the
respect and influence of that body by
the shrewd manner and business like
qualities he possess, always doing
something for the best interest Of his
constituents. Certainly Mr.. Teller
has cut himself loose from the friend
ship Of Gunnison county, when he
undertakes to kill the bill introduced
by Hill, for the opening Of the reser-
walton.

A correspondent OF the Chicago
Mining RteIey, in speaking of the
Waltz process for treating ore, which
has been lately put in operation IN
Silver Cliff, says: The present mill
requires but 3 men to operate it, and
the entire cost of running both shifts
including the fuel etc., is but $50 per
day. The entire cos! of treating each
ton Of ore is about $3.50. In large
mill the cost of running would be less,

treat refractory ores for 81 per ton as

Last FRIDAY when Mr.. Cotter. tn

AAuo! "hSA MI. NOllCI, tllc
county treasurer, arrived IN town he
found so much opposition to paying
taxes that he Immediately addressed
a circular to the citizens, of which the
following is an extract:
"Can thepeople Of thissection afford
to go backward two years to avoid a
few dollars taxes, and pay thousands
of dollars to fight the case through
to the Supreme Court, the County and
State Courts having already rendered
their decisions in favor Of the county
having jurisdiction, and the U. S.
Courts are divided on the subject /?
Can the people of Irwin afford at the
present time to enter into discussion
where they have everything to loose
and nothing to gain? This district
has been recognized as part of Gun
nlson county for the last two years,
the people of this section have paid
their tax, you have taken a very active
part in the election of the State and
County officers, you have elected your
constables and justice of the peace as
provided by the county law. Where
an order was issued two months ago
TO cancel the grocery license on the
reservation this section was exempt
because you were recognized under the
county government. When the call
was made to send a delegation to
Washington to have the reservation
declared open at once our two Senators
and our Congressman, and all the
prominent men of the country gave it
as their opinion that the reservation
was open, that it became the public
domain the moment the Indians signed
the treaty and accepted another terri
tory in the place of this, and the citi.
zens of the United States had right
to locate and pre-empt, and it became
the duty of the Secretary Of the 1nte-
rior to declare it OPEN"
From the above it appears that he
got an intination that the people were
not going to pay taxes on the reserva-
tion plea, which is mistake, as we
do not believe there is citizen in this
camp that would refuse to pay on that
ground. We have always wanted
to be recognized under Gunnison
county jurisdiction, Notwithstanding
we have been denied that privilege on
one or two occasions, as for instance
when We send a prisoner to Gunnison
for preliminary hearing the magistrate
refuses to commit him, turning him
over to U. S. Commissioner, throw
ing the case in the U. S. court, where
the culprit has been ever since, un-
punished for his brutal crime, whereas
if he had been tried before our dis
trict court he would have had his Just
deserts by this time. Perhaps we are
DEPRESSING, but these are pleasant little
episodes of the past that We like to
mention occasionally.
