Rev. Framton has been conducting
very successful series of revival

the sleighing was good the attendance
was large and much good will doubt

River and HarbOr Convention.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Feb. 4, '84
REPUBLICAN -
Perhaps a few lines
from this section may be of interest
to the readers of your valuable paper,
hence pen the following;
Hon. A. Cook and myself arrived
here on the eve of the 4th to attend,
ss delegates of Western Pennsylvania,
the National River and Harbor Con-
vention, called to convene in Lincoln
Hall at Washington, D. G., on Febr'y
9th. Western Pennsylvania was fur.
ther represented by delegates from
Pittsburgh, Allegheny City, Parker,
Franklin, Oil City, and Dubois.
As per the call about 500 delegates,
representing the major part of th e
States and Territories of the u. S.,
convened in Lincoln Hall at II m.
on the 9th. A temporary organiza-
tion was first obtaine0 by the election
of Governor w. D. Washburn, of
MINI, as Chairman. The Cover.
nor made a neat address, thanking the
Convention for the honor bestowed,
and declaring the necessity of the i'm
provement of the Mississippi river and
its great tributaries $50 as not only to
float the commerce of the country,
but that it might always remain a
link and bond of good will between

Secretary. The object Of this the
greatest river convention ever held in
the U. S. is the Improvement Of the
Mississippi and the tributaries, and to
solicit Congress to make the necessary
appropriation that snch object may be

their being improved and maintained

cannot ignore the expression of this

comes from the Balltown district, and
includes the torpedoed production of

on Saturday, to be doing little more
than two hundred barrels day.

sell, as they did in the case of the Da-
witt mine on Deer Creek ] have been
told by those that had chance of
knowing that the Davitt was sold for
what was in sight. The result in that
case was a yield of over 100000 last
summer, working under many disad-
vantages. Now that they have ma
ch'nery, they will doubtless take out
at least $4,000 in the next year.
Another case is that of the Silver KING,
in Sawtooth. 1t was so far away from
market that the owners could not sell
the ore, and becoming involved, were
compelled to sell for less than what
was in sight.
These are exceptions and doubtless
there are others, and moneyed men
are in luck when they find such
chances; but it does not follow that
these are the only chances for profta-
bic investment. There are to-day hun
q eds of chances in this Wood River
country for men to invest where they
can realize from 20 to 50 per cent. on
their outlay every year. If they pre-
fer, however, to put their money in
government bonds, where it will only
bring them b per cent. per annum,
all right. But let them not go around
among the miners and kick because
they won't take IS for $50, or because
they won't take dollar for dollar for
