He Deserves to be we'll Treated.

Robert Ross, telegraph operator at
Granger, is on trip over the Oregon
Short Line, and taking in Haley to-
day. He has visited Pocatello, Sho-
shone, Caldwell, Weiser and Boise, and
says that HALEY discounts them all in
activity and evident prosperity. From
this place he goes to the Yellowstone
Park. Mr.. Ross is the operator who
gratuitously SUP piled us the ballots, by
States, Of the National Conventions,
after the Associated Press had refused
to supply them, notwithstanding the
subscription Of 500 by business men
of Haley, for the purpose. The TINES
it should be borne in mind, could only
obtain general results, and not "details
of the ballots.

THE MINERS, UNION BALI.
1t will take Place at Bullion, next
Thursday.

The ball to be given by the Miners
Union next Thursday evening, the
l4th instant, will undoubtedly be a
financial success-and this is as it
should be, as there is not more de.
serving cause, one that appeals more
directly to the pockets Of the people
OF Wood River, than the Uuion cause.
Let the Miners Union once disor.
ganize and how long would the pres
ent scale Of wages be maintained?
And with low wages how many of us
would care to remain in this region?
Not one-half. Every one should
therefore do what he can to encourage
the Union in its good work by pur.
chasing at least one ticket for the ball
whether he intends to go or not.
The money realized will be applied to
the extinguishment of the debt
incurred in recent improvements to
the hall Of the Union. The price OF
tickets is only $3.50.

Mr.. More Of Galena Offering Inducements
Tor the Erection Of q Concentrating
Works.
A. B. More came came down from
Galena to-day to make arrangements
to have a lot of ore, sampled and
shipped. He has this year been work.
ing on the Nellie More, Occident, Mo-
doc, Asylum, Last Chance, and few
other claims, and has good ore OH the
dumps of all the claims named. How
much, he refuses to state, but "possi
bly, 1900 TONS" he says.
Mr.. More had a large quantity of
ore in sight in several claims as long
as two years ago, when TINES man
visited them, and a smelling furnace
was being erected to smelt it. But
the unsuccess Of the Ketchum works.
together with the high price of fuel
and labor, caused the smelter at GA
lena to remain in idleness, and Mr..
More hardly thinks it possible that it
will ever run.
But there is first class opening at
Galena for concentrating works, and
if the right man came along, Mr..
More would willingly give him sat
lsfactory "lay-out." Mr.. More owns
in at least 80 claims-all situated
within a radius of i've miles of Ga
lena, and he can undoubtedly make
satisfactory terms, if he happens to
meet a man that will suit him.
