fatal results that the anc,ens were

by modern civilization. The proof Of

A NOVEL SCHEME,
How Some POrtlanders Propose 10 Adj.

Several enterprising Portlanders
have hit on novel plan for advertis-
ing the city and State. 1t is the in
tent'on to organize splendid band
of from 20 to 40 musicians. 1t is to
be called the Portland, Oregon, Brass
Band. None but the best musicians
will be allowed to join, as it is intend
ed to make it as fine band as can be
gathered together on the Pacific
Coast. 1t is calculated that the band
and expense of the tour will foot up
at least $40, 600. With this band
grand concerts will be gwen in many
Of the principal Eastern cities. In
some Of the larger places stay oil
from one to two weeks will be made
Daring the concert, descriptive circu.
lars and other reading matter will be
distri puted. The programs will also
contain brief paragraphs telling OF
Oregon's climate and resources. A
brief lecture will be given by the
agent, who accompanies the band, or
the "land Of red apples" 1t is cal
cu!ated that more good solid adver
Using can be done for Portland and
Oregon in this than in any other way

Bradstreet's, February IS: While
rates have shown no disposition to
harden, and the offerings Of loanable
funds in the New York market have
for the past week been very large,
there seems to be some slight decrease
in the amount available for the pur-
pose. The Treasury operations again
tend to take money from the banks,
and the slowness with which Congress
seems to act upon the financial prob
lens now before them is subject Of
remark. There seems to have been
more demand for funds at Boston and
elsewhere, and the inflow of money
from the interior to New York is
measurably checked. The utter stag
nation of the stock market, of course,
deere asses the demand for funds for
Stock Exchange purposes; but, on
the other hand, the bringing out of
new bond issues has resulted in in.
creased borrowings upon such secu-
rites. Call money continues very
easy, the rate for bankers balances
on the Stock Exchange having rang

were lenders to brokerage houses a,

easy, and loans on mixed collateral
are offered for six months or even
longer at 4 to - per cent. Mer-

TIE GALORE.STORMY.
One OF the Best Niue Properties in
Smoky-Extent OF Development and
Yield TO Date.

Yield TO Date.
George A. Black, who returned
from Smoky yesterday, states that the
report of strike of a six-foot vein
OF ore in the Galore Stormy is with.
out foundation. The Galore Stormy
claims were located as parallelogram
l2oOSl5OO feet, and they show three
well defined veins. The first Of
these, which is known as the Galore
vein, cuts through the Galore claim
about 80 feet from its south line; the
second, or Galore Stormy vein, crosses
the west side line OF the Galore
claim and cuts diagonally across into
the Stormy claim and out at its east
side.line; and the third, or Stormy
vein, runs in the same general direc-
ton about $50 feet east of the
Stormy Galore vein.
Although the three veins have been
prospscted on the surface, the only
one on which any considerable work
has been done is the Galore Stormy.
In this vein two shafts have been
sunk about 100 feet apart, and tun-
mel has been driven which connects
with the shafts at depth of about
l25 feet. An attempt was made to
continue sinking one Of the shafts
below the tunnel level, but after
pushing the work about So feet water
came in in such quantities as to com
pei its abandonment, owing to the
lack Of pumping machinery. 1t cost
SIG per day to keep the water from
rising above the level Of the stump,
while the men were compelled to
work in perfect rain-storm.
Last fall a tunuel was started to
tap the three veins, at depths varying
from $50 to 800 feet. This tunnel, il
was expected, would have to run 40C
to 800 feet to cut the Stormy vein
and 200 feet additional to cut the two
others. 1t is now in about 25O feet,
and is therefore not yet IN reach OF
any known vein. 1t is possible that
c " blind lode' may be cut before or
after the Stormy vein is reached; but
unless this happens ore will not be
uncovered in the tuunel for three OF
four months,
TIE Galore Stormy vein carries ex
ceeding'y high grade ore. the average
of the shipments so far, in carload
lots, going about $275 pert /, has
been Summer mine" only, SO
far, operations having been limited to
the months from middle of May to
end of October Even with this lin
tied exploitation, the output has
been quite satisfactory and remuner-
alive, as 1t appro INMATES $4,000.
The property is owned by residents
of Haley, and miners speak of it as
the most promising mine in Smoky.

AGENTS FOR THE.LIGHT.

MATTERS are looking decidedly
blue for the engineers of the {. b. d
@. road. The details of the plot are
coming to the from, t and the secret
circular now given the public, if
authentic, is conclusive proof of the
conspiracy to disable engines and de-
stroy property of the road. Let no
guilty man escape, is good motto.
1t has its application in this case.
This country cannot afford to sur
render its settlement of labor difficult
ties by due process of law and arbi-
tration, to mob law and the demands
Of dynamiters. Better far endure the
ills that labor has than fly to those of
which the end is destruction. The
interests of labor are demanding
greater recognition year by year and
they are not making the demand in
vain. National and state legislatures
are moving for such legal recognition
of the status of labor, as employed by
carrying and other large corporations,
as will eventually secure just and
equitable method of arbitrating all
difficulties between these corpora
lions and the labor employed
by them. This being the case, as is
evidenced in the history OF American
legislation, it is manifestly to the in
terest of labor to abide the issue of
events and not evoke the hostility of
thinking men by outrageous acts,
which can have no justification and
which only serve to defeat the efforts
of the friends of labor in securing de-
sired legislation on their behalf. This
conspiracy of the c. B. and Q. engin-
GERS, even it be confined TO but small
number of the order of Locomotive
Brotherhood, will create a general
prejudice against them, and bar them
out of the sympathy which has so
generally been extended to them in
the past. He is thrice armed whose
quarrel is his own and justice as well,
but he disarms himself who seeks with
unlawful weapons to win in any
cause.

NOT LEFT OUT INTHE COLD.

The proposition made by the Aran-
sas Pass people to the citizens of Gil
lespie and Llano counties, has stimu-
lated the zeal of the people OF those
counties in no small degree. The gem
tlemen who came to this city to confer
with President Lott, went home feel
ing secure in their opinion that the
propositions made by the company
would be acceptable to their people,
and that the conditions would be met.
This places this matter in a most
favorable position for the speedy con-
nection of this city with the richest
iron region of the south. Northern
prospectors in that region consider
the outlook every way as favorable as
at Birmingham, Alabama; and that
most extensive iron operations will be
the outcome of railway communica-
ton to that point. Give San Antonio
this road and it makes one more point
from which to penetrate the great
northwest and reach out towards Den
yer, all Colorado, Western Kansas,
Nebraska and Missouri. The shortest
road from Denver, and the west
ern sections of Kansas, Nebraska
and Missouri. to the sea board lie
directly through this city. Open
Arkansas Pass to the commerce of the
world and the future of this city is
made certain. The great possibilities
that lie within the grasp of our citi-
zens are becoming better understood
year by year. A new interest is being
awakened in all that makes our future.
Men hitherto unconcerned as to our
prosperity and with little or no active
concern for any of the enterprises
mooted are looking on with more in
terested eye and showing themselves
not wholly Indifferent to what makes
for municipal increase. The rapid en-
largement of our real estate transac-
lions also gives sure indica ton of a
more thorough stirring of the currents
of our business life, all pointing to the
beginning of better days to come. The
various local enterprises which have
been mooted within the past year are
not by any means dead, and there are
hopeful signs of the successful revival
of some of the more important ones.
A deep determination of our business
men to rid themselves of the incubus
of present municipal incompetency
and inaugurate new order of NUM-
cipal affairs is not the least of the
many indications that San Antonio is
coming to herself and will enter the
race for prosperity only to come under
the wire winner at the finish.

THE Waco Day offers as reason
for the nOn-celebration of the 4th of
July south of Mason's and Dixon's
line, not that the south is less patri-
otto, but more sultry. The Day says:
"That the south does not jubilate on
the Fourth of July like our brethren
of the north, is more a matter of
climate than of patriotism. Our holi-
days naturally come in the cooler sea-
son, and Christmas is more honored
than other festivals, not because we
are better Christians, but because it
occurs at time when exertion is not
burden but adds zeal to existence"
So. Anything that excuses the
apathy of the south to the stars and
stripes goes in Texas.
