The Reason Why.
SEATTLE, June q, 1886

Ed. STANDARD:
In your issue of Friday last, you
copy an item in regard to the late
meeting of the Democratic Terrific.
rial Committee, at Tacoma, from the
Walla Walla Statesman, III which
that paper saws d" The day for hold,
ing the convention is probably sort
Of compromise. Mr.. VOORHEES,
wished it in July, but there was such
strong and steady kick that the
committee could not withstand the
press, and so named later date. D
The fact is, there was no compro.
mise about it, and the date Was
fixed without regard to what MIR.
Voorhees, or any other candidate has
to say in the premises. The prevail
ing sentiment was for late conven-
ton, say September, but Oh consul
tation and reflection it was conclud-
ed that SO late date would not give
candidate-especially new Ole
me to canvass the Territory. In
connection with this conclusion
came the further suggestion that
possibly the Territorial limits would
be enlarged by the addition of por.
ton of Idaho.
While on this subject, l may say
to you that there we've several little
side-meetings at Tacoma, previous
to the regular meeting, at which out.
side Democrats of whom were
from Seattle-and members of the
committee were present, and matters
and things we're talked over very
freely, and it was not at all appar-
ent that it would be a good thing to
nominate Mr.. voorhees, again, but
on the contrary the showing was de-
cidedly against it. 1t is not my
province to arraign him here for his
" shortcomings" if he has any, and
perhaps you would not like to allow
me to do SO, but l can certainly say
to yourself and other good Demo
Gratis that il may be well for all of us
to reflect over the policy and pro-
priety of nominating any man for

vention, will be thrown completely

hibition would necessarily conflict
with an act that the General Govern.
ment specially authorizes to be done.
II is not 90. The license issued by
the Internal Revenue department is
simply a permit" to sell. provided
other conditions are complied with.
The Government does not declare

SnOQualmie Mines.
The Prospecting Expedition Returned
from Them.

Messrs. o. G. Dewey and II. r.
Wells. of Ohio, have returned to
Seattle after trip to the Snoqual-
ME iron mines whore they have been
accompanied by several other par
ties, investigating the mines. The
Seattle Times has the following to
say of their trip:
The purpose of the expedition was
to ascertain, if possible, tho extent
of the deposit of iron ore and the
feasibility Of railroad connection
with that country in certain contin.
genoies. Mr.. Dewey has made sew.
eral visits to the Sound within the
past year or fourteen months with o
view to the erection of a nail factory
and other iron works. He was &C.
companied on his first trip by Mr..
Wetherell, of Massillon. The latter,
however, was unable to make a visit
to the Sound this spring, and ac-
cordingly his son-in-law, Mr.. Wells,
came on in his place.
Messrs. Dewey and Wells were
both much pleased with their visit
to the Snoqualmie mines. They
were surprised at the immense tim
Der in that country. Mr.. Wells
stated that if he would tell his Ohio
friends the truth about the immen.
sity of the timber he saw, he feared
he would get the name of being one
OF the biggest liars" in tho Buck
eye State. The party brought back
with them specimens of iron ore,
marble and coal, some of which has
striking characteristics of the an
thracite. Limestone occurs in abun-
dant quantities. The three elements
that are necessary for the production
OF iron are: First, the iron ore of
itself and fuel (wood or coaD and
lime. These elements are OF hand
in the Snoqualmie in great abund.
ance.
1t appears that Messrs. Dewey
and Wells are of the opinion that
they exist in abundance there to
justify the erection of large plant
for the manufacture of iron.
They will need for their establish.
ment some forty acres of land con-
veniently located for receiving ship.
ments of the crude materials which
enter into the manufacture of iron.
and for shipping the flushed pro-
ducts of the factory to market. The
establishment they intend to start is
of a size to afford employment to
500 skilled laborers, whom they will
bring with them from the East.
As to the matter of railroad, con.
nection with that country, it can be
said that several routes are practica.
BILE. One would be o connection
with the Cascade division via the
SnOqualinie pass. There are two
other routes, both making connec-
ton with the Columbia and Puget
Sound system. OF course the con.
struction of q railroad by any of
these routes depends upon the de.
velopement of mines in the country
which it will tap.
The expedition which the party
made appears to have been simply
to gather facts which will enable
Messrs. Dewey and Wells to reach
q determination about their future
nlan.

Bridgeton pioneer. (Bridgeton, N.J.) 1884-1919, 1886-08-05

Frank Bunton and Jim Adams, of
Music, Carter county, Ky, were
enemies. This was why Adams gave
Mrs. Bunton a thrashing when her
husband was away, and that was why
Bunton loaded his gun with buckshot
and went cunning for Adams. The
latter, who was playing cards, saw
his enemy coming. He held a good
hand, and laying it face down asked
his friends to wait until he had settled
Bunton. He drew his pistol and
crawled under freight car, and when
Bunton, who had not seen him, came
along, Adams fired and missed him.
Bunton saw Adams peering from under
the car and fred a load of buckshot
into his upturned forehead. killing
him instantly.
