The Mines and Works ut Smoky.

"Eighty-eight" Johnson came over
to-day from Smoky, and reports bust
ness quite active. Teams loaded
with supplies for the Smoky Bullion
mines are arriving daily at the Smoky
Bullion mill, over the new wagon
road from Willow creek, on Camas
Prairie, which was lately completed.
The teams came in heavily loaded, and
experienced no trouble over the grade,
but an additional wagon road is sur
veyed, and will soon be built from
the mines on Smoky to the head of
Soldier creek, at SIMPSONS ranch.
This road will be only II miles long,
over fine grade, passing plenty of
timber and fine water, and will reach
the heart of the principal settlements
on Camas Prairie, which are located
along Soldier creek and its tributaries.
A town is being planned there and a
grist mill will be built also. A saw
mill is near by on upper Soldier
creek, where lumber is delivered at 500
per 1000 feet. The ore null at the
mines, under the active management
of A. p. Mnear, will start up about
October l. The mill has five stamps,
and will be used to work the tailings
from the concentrators-working the
sulphates and gold which is largely
contained in the ore. The concentra-
tors will be in operation before many
days. The sawmill is completed, and
as the boiler was set in position yes
terday, it will start up tomorrow.
One hundred men are now at work
there, and preparations are being
made to continue work on the mines
all winter. Material is now being
laid in, with all needed extras for the
machinery, and the roads will be kept
open during winter. Mr.. Johnson is
in after supplies for his mining claims,
which are being developed. The ore
of the Smoky mines is base galena,
silver and gold, and requires just such
treatment as Mr.. Minear has adopted.
The mines are being worked for pro-
duct, and the main shaft is down 100
feet on the vein.

Paulding and his Pet.

Paulding has been getting in ev-
cry variety of article at the second
hand emporium, until it is a perfect
secondhand curiosity shop. The
most. useful article apparently is the
orguinette, which is always playing
sentimental airs. The cat even plays
with it, as does every prospector COM
ing to town, and Paulding amuses
himself at the instrument when not
too busy. He intends rigging a wind
mill to turn the cylinder day and
night, but will rent it to setenade
parties by the hour. If the Bellevue
circus shows in HALEY and doesn't
pay expenses, Paulding expects to
buy the entire outfit, and exhibit it
for sale at his auction rooms. He
pays cash and bids on everything,
from an elephant to a pin cushion,
and is just the man wanted in com
munity, as everything is convertible
into coin with him-even broken
china and old junk.

The Challenge.

The TIMES editorial corps are
now dieting on raw steaks, Lon
don porter and John Morrissey's cele.
brated "bIack draught." Joe Goss
and Pete Mccoy have been tele.
graphed for, and Immediately upon
their arrival a series of exhibition
knock outs will be planned. The
artist who manipulates the muscu-
lar development of the TIMES has en-
gagged the race track for pedestrian
exercise, and at precisely two o'clock
a. m. will commence his daily walk of
Is miles.
AS soon as snow flies, Norwegian
snowshoes will be used, as it is highly
important that the system be reduced
to the lowest possible weight, and at
the same time maintain the physical
condition to its highest point of en-
durance. Patent electric brushes for
the hair, Turkish towels and bay rum
for the skin have been provided. The
gloves and spiked boots are to be of
the most approved pattern. Great
difficulty has been experienced in
HALEY, in procuring No. Is gloves
and shoes. The recent failures, in
the East, of many leading leather firms
renders it extremely doubtful whether
the order can be promptly filled. In
usual efforts will, however, be made,
and "When the springtime comes.
gentle ANNIE" we will be there, and
don't you forget it.

Such grand and lofty tumbling is
seldom witnessed as was seen yester-
day by two little boys. They were
fishing on Wood River, at the base of
Strahorn peak, and were startled by a
number of rocks, stones and dirt fall
ing in front of them. Looking up
they saw one of the dodgers Of the
Grand Central coming heels over head
from the top of the peak, down the
gulch strai ght for the river. He fell
from the point of rocks and rolled to
the bottom, landing bruised and bleed
ing, with his clothes torn to tatters.
The boys were given money to run
to town, get him another suit and say
nothing about it, and they didn't

A Funny Mistake.

Some time ago an editor had what
was called "a cystic tumor' in his
throat, and one Of his contemporaries
stated that "Mr. Blank is suffering
from sciatic tumor on his neck" OF
course this was an error; but a greater
error is the mistaken idea that pre-
walls among some people that sciatic
pains cannot be cured. Not only
those pains, but Rheumatism, will
yield to the action Of Salicylica, one
of the most reliable remedies of mod.
ern times.

&AY FaANcla,o, oct. iith.-Thc
Chr9aic|t's editorial TN the claims #
" Washington territory 70 admission to the
Exon, says.
Tho Territory Is better qualified by
reason Of population, properly and immo-
late future prospects. for the condition
OF Statehood, than several States now in
the Union, and much better than Oregon
Nevada, Florida, Colorado and Nebraska
were when they came into the union oi
the States. The message Of Gov. Newell
to this LEGISLATURE is at hand A more
intcrcstng executive document il seldom
seen 1t fairly opens with the not idle
boast that "ior manifest reasons We arc
about to assume foremost position in the
affairs of the world" Thus is true beyond
a doubt In extent Washington Territory
is lust about 900, 600 acres more than
twice the area of the State of Indiana.
It will be the next thing to miracle, ii
with all advantages Of location, soil, eli
mate and vigorous blood, Washington
does not, within the next five pears, reach
a representative population of 300, 900
or total property valuation of 800, O0O,.
600. Such Territory should be al
mitted into the Union as State upon
application. The Governors message
urges the admission, but an application
without presenting constitution, will moi
and should not be granted. The peopl,
of Washington made a constitution sever
al years ago aud applied for admission
but failed because the population was thcr
too small They might this winter re
present that constitution with largely i'm
proved chances of success. Every Pacific
coast member should, and probably would
favor the movement. 1t is objected thai
this old constitution is cumbersome. Ther
let it be remodeled by Congress ant
adopted by the new State after admission
We hope that Congress will at the com
ing session admit Washington as Stat,
into the Union. By every honest land
mark which has been observed in the in
crease Of the States, it may claim admis
sion"

John Mitchell. editor of the Telegrapers
Advocate, was the next witness. He gave an
account of his life as an operator in the tele-
graph service. Patric j. Tierney, an opera
tor in the Western Union Office, testified
that the longer a man remained with the
company the smaller his salary became. He
said thar owing to the migratory habits Of the
average telegraph operator, the company was
able to fill positions vacated by first class
men at lower salary. This system was the
means of greatly reducing the wages of all
classes of operators. Alfred II. Seymour. al
old telegraph operator, testified that the sal
airy of first class operator should not be
less than 500 a month, and his hours OF
labor not over eight. Other operators gave
similar testimony.
