1t seems that come one has raked up o
charge against Judge Clifford, but the
Watertown Courier disposes of it in the
following paragraph:
We have the very best authority for
asserting that the report published in
the democratic papers in relation to
Judge Giford's having hired saloon
at Pierre is absolutely aud unqnalifedly
false. On the contrary, Judge Gifford;s
most ardent supporters we're solid tenn
perance delegates from some Of the
southern counties, and the worst charge
made against him was that he refused
to expend dollar to secure his nomi-
nation, but depended entirely upon the
personal exertlons of himself and
friends.
To those who know Judge Clifford the
denial is hardly necessary.S

for this country that the railroad COM
pany should have given the contract for
grading the extension to Ketchnm to
outside Contractors, who bring in labor
ers, teams and supplies, etc, with which
to prosecute the work. Could some
contractors here have been given the
contract, the money paid for labor and
teams would in a measure have gone to-
ward developing the mines, which would
have created transportation for the road
itself, as well as helped develop the
country. The dependent for

tanned by the contiguous country, and

throw money, which they must expend

must soon be returned to them in the
way of ever increasing transportation.

in lead. The new strike was made two
weeks since on Independence ground,
800 feet from the original discovery, and
within IS feet of the side line. The dis
coverers ut first supposing II to be on
open land, were very jubihnt, but upon
the production of MIR. Teachnor's loca-
ton papers, which read, 1880 feet east
and west" instead of I'm the course of
the ledge" they acknowledged his right
and made no further claim. These par
ties were permitted to strip the ledge
with view to following over the Inde-
pendence side line, but soon discovered
that it pitched further into the hide
pendence location and gave up the work.
In two hours work Thursday, Mr.. Teach
nor took twelve sacks from the vein and
left it uncovered about six feet by four
feet deep, looking fine. This ore is
low grade, but will net the owner $40
per ton. 1t exists in sufficient quanti-
