A Mint Order Modified.

Assistant United States Treasurer
5. Il. Brooks, of San Francisco, has
been notified from Washington,
authorizing him to accept deposits of
standard dollars to be shipped i'm
mediately from the Mint in sums not
exceeding $4,000, provided San Fran>
cisco be the nearest point of shipment
to the destination. The expense of
shipment is to be borne by the Governs
msnt. This is modification of the
rules that were suspended by the
Treasurer at Washington, July 10.
Prior to that date the dollars were sent
TO all points on demand. This rule
was suspended on July 10, and the
Treasurer then required that II certiti-
cate, showing that deposit had been
made here with the Sub Treasurer,
should be sent to Washington for his
Endorsement. This involved delay
of at least two weeks. All the terri.
tory that is nearer San Francisco
than any other Government depository
of standard dollars will hereafter be
supplied with these coins in sums of
$4,000 directly through the Mint
upon demand.

The Philadelphia Press says: Con-
gresham Reagan, of Texas. who
doubtless represents the views of the
body of Southern Congressman as we'll
as anybody. is still welded to the
silver dollar and hostile to every
proposition to suspend its coinage.
He can see nothing but a conspiracy
of wlckedness and evil designs agains:
the debtor class and the great South
west in any movement looking toward
she suspension of silver coinage.

WHITE PINE NEWS
SATURDAY SEPT. 90. 1885,
Mining VS.. Manufacturing.

People who think that the silver
movement is entirely in the interest
of the West will receive food for reAee>
ton from the following facts takca
from the Leadvile Herald:
Leadville mines pay over 100000
wear to the railroads of Colorado,
Kansas and the Eastern States for
freight on machinery, bullion, coke,
c al and supplies for the workmen.
The greater the value of the silver.
the more numerous the mines to be
worked ard the greater the number Of
men employed and consequently the
greater the consumption OF supplies.
The silver mines of Leadyille annu-
ally produce from onefeurth to one
third of the lead consumed in the
United States. Since the mines we're
opened no more lead is imported from
Europe, and the price of sheet pipe
and white lead has been reduced
nearly fifty per cent.
The Leadville mines supply funds
for the maintenance of over fifteen
thousand people, whose entire supplies
are drawn from the Western agri-
cultural and Eastern and Southern
manufacturing and cotton growing
States, amounting to over $4,000, 900.
The Leadville merchants are the
best cash buyers entering the various
Eastern markets.
With the exception of a brewery.
patent spring bed factory, candy fac
tory, aud few repair shops, Leadville
has no manufacturing establishments.
but buys all it consumes in the East,
assisting business there and permit
ting Eastern manufacturers to prosper
and accumulate wealth.
Let manufacturers and merchants
who favor the characterization Of silver,
and who consider the mining interests
of the West of no importance. know
how much of their trade, directly and
indirectly, is due to the activity pre-
vailing in the Western States and
Territories.
The silver mines of Leadville
produce annually half million dol,
lars worth of gold, in connection with
the silver product, which could not be
mined for tine gold alone.
The mining regions of the Rocky
Mountains afford five times as great
market for the produce of Iowa,
Nebraska, Kansas and Texas as the
whole Of Europe.

The chrysanthemum ''craze," as such, is as
sehseless and as ephemeral as other crazes, but
the flower itself deserves a welcome and uni
versal adoption, not so much from its beauty or
perfume for it Is not very attractive in either of
those respects, but because. chiefly, 1T prolongs
the floral year. 1t is the distinguishing merit
Of the chrysanthemum that its hardy blossom
lights up the later days of autumn when the
tenderer flowers have snuggled into their win
ter retreats. 1t is largely on this account that
the orientals esteem the plant. With their
habit OF attaching meanings to flowers they
give the ehrysanthemum the attributes OF
strength and bravery because 1t faces the rude
winds of winter, and nourishes when others
wither and die. Hence 1t is adopted as the royal
emblem in Japan, and is highly honored both
there and in China

From a census that has been taken of the
views Of Congressman elect on the proposed
changes In the rules, and the question of silver
legislation, 1t would appear that the prevailing
sentiment Of the party favors the former and
objects to the latter suggestion. The responses
are not complete enough. however, to have
much significance. Only ffty-nine democrats
replied at all, or scarcely fourth of the whole
number of representatives belonging to that
party, and IL the names were published, it Is to
be presumed that few of the party leaders
would be found on record.

We are now promised a literary sensation in
the shape of a book To show that Milton stole
the idea and to a considerable extent the
phraseology of his three principal poems, Para
disc Lost, Paradise Regained, and Samson
Agonistes, from Joost van Vondel, an eminent
Dutch poet of his times. II is not unlik - that
Milton, who was q universal scholar, took freely
whatever literature had to offer in the way of
materials. Possibly he was as bare-faced thief
in this field as Shakespeare himself. The older
writers do not seem to have had as nice liter
airy conscience as our authors of to-day. But one
thing is certain: Those old fellows had a way of
dressing up their stolen property, the secret of
which has apparently died with them. Lincoln
sighed for few more generals who could use
whisky like Grant, and modern literature would
like another crop OF such plagiarists as Chau-
Ger, Shakespeare and Milton.
