IN SMOKY DISTRICT.
The Silver Star and Isabella-TwO Very
Promising Mixes.

Promising Mines.
Superintendent Moulton, of the
Philadelphia Mining and Smelling
Company, went out to Smoky District,
a few days ago, to examine the recent
strike in the Silver Star mine, which
is owned by members of the Philadel-
phia Company. He says that the Sill
yer Star is big vein, aud as well-de-
fined as airy in this region. The
width of the ore-vein, as exposed, is
between four and FIVE feet, but as no
crosscut has been made it is impossi.
BILE for any one to say just how wide
the vein is. The men are drifting
along the vein, and the ore shows up
beautifully. John F. Boyle is in
charge of operations. The Star
could, even now, send in a couple of
hundred tons to reduction works; but
it may not ship pound this year, as
the owners wish to push developme nts
before beginning to realize.
On the wav in Mr.. Moulton looked
at McFadden's mine, the Isabella,
and was we'll pleased with it. The
vein is quite narrow, running about
one foot or two in width, but the ore
is very rich and dry. This, like most
Of the Smoky ores, is neither smelling
or milling, and is quite expensive to
work; but its high grade will remun-
crate the owner for his outlay and
leave a good, round profit besides.
Mr.. Moulton could not examine
other claims because OF lack of time ;
but from what he saw he is satisfied
that the District will come into prom
inence at no distant day. This year,
however, none OF the claims will be
got into shape to yield much ore-so
that another season will be required to
bring Smoky to the front.

THE FREEMAN.
Its Work and it's Needs.

"A fsi.. hful correspondent in last
weeks issne called the attention of
the coming Conventions to the
FREEMAN's work and its needs.
A word from itself m its own be-
half may not be amiss, il the Tenn
perance delegates and the good wo-
men of the W. G. T. U. will hear
it, as they come together this week
Three years and half ago few
friends of the cause Of Temperance
and Prohibition in West Virginia,
started the FREEMAN on its aggres-
sive mission. 1t received encour-
agement and other friends helped
it on its way. 1t said in its first
's&lutation, at aOiU not pick chips Gf
ter any masters chopping, nor quicken
pace at the crack Of any party a0hip."
1T will stand for the rights Of the peo-
pie IN every contest, r egardIsss Of con-
sequences to any mere party or person.
al interests"
That it has faithfully kept this
pledge, none can deny; and it is
ready and eager to fight this Home
battle through, on this indepen-
dent line, to the utmost of its hum
bic possibilities.
But the FREEMAN IS nothing and
can do nothing of itself. 1t is the
Peoples paper. 1t is your property,
and is at your disposal, You have
been told that the paper needs a
better support than it has received
and must have more money to en-
able it to do the work laid out for
it; but let no one think the FREE
MAN a pauper, begging for aims, nor
its publication personal enter
prise, asking help.
1t is the child Of the Temperance
Cause in West Virginia and the
eagerly adopted" of the Christian
and Temperance people of the
State. Those in charge have used
their utmost wisdom and economy
in its management, and its editor
has done his humble best. Thus
has it gone out doing missionary
work, until now it is preaching the
gospel of Temperance to the thous-
ands throughout every county in
West Virginia, from the Big Sandy
to the Shenandoah, and to the ex-
treme of the Pan Handle, and
throughout the land it goes its
modest way from Maine to Florida
and from Wyoming to California.
But with and for all this. it needs
a better support-it needs more
practical good Wilt needs bet.
Ter financial friendship-it needs
money.
1t is for the Convention to ap
prove its work, if it can, and give
it more vigorous life and &
wider usefulness, if it will.
West Virginia freeman. (Parkersburg, W. Va.) 1881-1886, 1884-06-18
The Conventions Work.

1t is not for US to prophesy or ev-
en- guess what the Convention will
do. Indeed we hardly think any
temperance man in the State would
be presumptuous enough to say
what it will do.
Unlike the cases Of party con-
ventions, there has been no "set-
ting up" of primaries and no ma
nipulatiohs in personal interests,
and no person, clique or party will
have the Convention in hand 30
as to warrant any predictions in
this or that direction.
1t is to be a gathering of the
people for the peoples good, and we
doubt not the best thing will be
done.
That a bold step in advance will
be taken, we fondly hope and fully
believe. We are quite sure the
temperance sentiment of the State
is ripe for more vigorous measures
and much more practical work
than ever before undertaken, and
the people will confidently expect
the Convention to set the stakes
and lay out the work by definite
metes and bounds,
For the large body Of intelligent
delegates, representing the best
people of the State, to meet to-day,
and simply sing a few songs and
pray few prayers, and resolve a
few stereotyped resolves against
the Liquor Traffic and in favor of
Temperance, would at once delight
ali the lower order of politicians,
please and embolden the liquor
men and disgust all true temper
ance workers, bringing dispair in
to thousands of West Virginia
homes whose thresholds are now
spanned by the bright bow of hope
ind promised joy,
Hitherto the temperance b osts
have been trying to make Prohibi-
ion bricks without straw. 1t must
De the business of the Convention
20 put them in the way of securing
ibis practical necessity.
There is abundance Of temper
once sentiment, but of what avail
without the ballot to utilize and |
bring it into solid, practical, build
ing shape? What we want is a
voting sentiment; a sentiment
solid enough to withstand the heat
Of political campaign; a senti
ment moulded into independent
ballots, by which the Prohibition
walls must be builded.
The People are ready, eager and
anxious to build.
Let the Convention carefully con-
slider and wisely indicate the very
best plans and methods, and tho
the foundations run right through
old party lines, the builders will
leap to their places, and with the
showers of temperance ballots, the
walls of reform and home, protec-
tisn will 60 up as the walls of the
saloon tumble down.
The right Of the people to vote their
ooiU, must be emphasized as mever be-
fore.
