and Rapidly .Dlscharging Rifle.


R. R. Duniway, younger son of
Mrs. A. S. Duniway, came to HALEY
from Antelope, to-day, after a new
moving machine. He reports the
ranchers in the Lost River region as
quite prosperous. The hay crop is
satisfactory.
The Duniway hay ranch at Antelope
was jumped, few days ago, by a
stranger who put up tent, set his
stakes, and avowed his determination
to die on the spot before he would
leave. Willis S. Duniway. owner of
the ranch, learning of this, came over
from Lost River, and parposely rode
on to the ranch, in broad daylight,
and went about as if none but him
self was around. At dusk the would.

the E. e. Coffin Co.'s gasolene stoves,
this warm weather, do not know what
real comfort is. These stoves or

every day that they are used, and no
good wife who has used one once
will be without one. She will even
prefer to 60 without carpet on the
floor than without a gasolene stove.
A car load of War Dance ore was
shipped to Denver from HALEY, to-
day. Messrs. Burns and Flannery,
owners of the group, held a carload
for a few days last week, with the ex-
pectation of getting better prices
than we're quoted at that time, but
finally shipped at loss. They also
held the carload shipped to-day for
couple of days, but made money by
doing SO. In future, they will reduce
their shipments to a carload per
week.

Quietly, but surely, the Chicago &

extending its road to a connection
with the Oregon Pacific Railway at
Boise. Its working forces are now
in the neighborhood of Green River,
Wyoming, less than 400 miles east
of HALEY. 1t is therefore probable
that it will tap the Wood River re-

. This REGION,


An Experienced Mine Promoter SAYS
that Ne has Unbouaded Confidence
In Its Future.
J. w. McGregor, owner of the
Baltimore and Victoria group, and
former owner of the Bannock and
Narrow Gauge group and other
famed mine properties, is an expert
enced mine operator and promoter
who stands exceedingly we'll in the
mine camps Of Montana, Idaho,
Utah and Colorado. Mr.. McGregor
is at present in Haley, having come
to examine into the situation with
the view of resuming work on the
Baltimore and Victoria group, if the
conditions are satisfactory. He has
not entirely made up his mind as to
his future course, as he wishes, first,
to see what will be done in the mat
ter of the proposed reduction in
freight and other charges. But he
has entire confidence in the final
outcome Of Wood River.
''What you are undergoing" Mr..
McGregor said to TINES reporter
this morning, sis no more than what
pretty much every mining camp has
to undergo. 1t is just what Bing-
ham Canyon, Silver Reef, Park City,
Frisco, even Leadville, and so many
other camps have gone through.
This depression will last just as
long-and no longer-as these rate
matters remain unsettled. Then the
reaction will be felt at once-only
slightly at first, but very plainly
and with increasing force. This
region, you see, has more elements
of wealth than almost any mining
region l ever saw. Your ore is of
the highest average value of any
camp have been in. In fact, I
might say truthfully that it aver
ages from 80 to Is per cent. higher
than that of any other camp. Now,
this is bound to tell as soon as other
conditions are favorable. The trouble
has been that since the discovery of
Wood River the price of lead and
silver has been going down, while
the cost of mining and marketing
has not kept pace with the decreas-
ing value of your product. Only
think of paying $50 per ton for
freight alone-and to the Missouri
river, at that! Why, $20-ore is
pretty fair grade itself.
'Then, too, you have so many
lodges here. There is hardly one
that know of but what will pay
working expenses. That is to say,
they might not pay to work extrav-
gantly until they shall be opened;
but even now, with proper manage
ment, they can be made to pay ex-
penses. Why, if I were otherwise
disengaged, l would not be afraid to
take a lease, or several of them. on
great many claims that know of
hereabout.
"What you want, what the rail
way must give you, is $40 rate to
the Missouri river; then you wan:
to bring the cost Of production to
the lowest possible figure. This will
be better all around in the end, be-
cause you will produce from four to
ten times as much ore as now, and
all concerned will therefore secure
proportionate increase of business.
But, whether you get this or no, you
are bound to get no worse off than
you are now, anyway; because your
high grade ore will keep fully as
many men employed as are now at

The vIetOrIous PLAforn..

The national Republican platform of
1888 demonstrates in the clearest and
most unequivocal terms that there is a
wide difference between tho principles,
spirit and aims Of the two leading parties
of the country. the Democratic party In
control of the federal government today
and the Republican party. The manner
in which tho Chicago convention has
taken up tho challenge Of President Cleve-
land and his obsequious party followers.
and has defined the Republican policy re-
garding the tariff and the surplus and
other largo questions. leaves no middle
ground for the quibblers. tho straddlers
and the vacIllators, Tho lines are drawn
50 plainly that there can DO no mistake.

Gains and Losses.

This city shows large increase on
the vote of 1884. The democrats
gained largely in every ward, while
the republicans gained in all except
ward 3, where there was a falling of
Of Is votes. The republican gains in
the city were: Ward 1, IL; ward 2,
32 ward 4, 3S. Democratic gains
were: Ward l, 50; ward 2, 35 f;
ward 3, As; ward 4, AS The
democratic and the republican county
chairmans both live in ward 3. While
We do not care to criticise any one
here, let the reader study we'll these
figures and remember what we said
TIVE weeks ago about the organization
and management of the republican
forces. In this county and township
We had all to gain and nothing to lose
but votes.

THE RESULT.

The result Of last Tuesday is a
glorious victory for the republican
party of the nation, though our State
ticket is counted out, as usual. Mr..
Harrison gets 239 electoral votes, and
Mr. Cleveland gets 1872. The repub-
lican majority in the U. S. Senate is
increased, and the republicans elect a
majority of the members of Congress.
We again have all branches of the
government. It's a glorious victory.

The Republicans in Power.

The republicans have carried the
country-They have not only elected
their President and kept a majority of
the Senate, but they have also won
the control of the House of Represen-
tatives.
The entire machinery of the gov
eminent is in their hands, and they
may be expected to make full use Of
their opportunities. They will, of
course, take possession in the coming
March of the more important offices.
Next they will eject the Democrats in
the. departments at Washington.
Then they will get in their men in
the post-offices, the internal revenue
bureau, the custom houses, etc., etc,
until they have once more an army of
camp-followers one hundred thousand
strong.
Harrison will say: II am Re-
publican" with all that that implies.

Right. Mr.. Harrison is expected to
turn every democrat out of office,
and not only the democrats, but every
republican office holder who has not
shown his hand in this fight. There
are plenty experienced men outside

the Senate confirms the Cabinet Off

PrrrsBURG, July 26.-The Amalgama-
ted Association scale was signed to-day by
the Moorhead-McClesne Company. The
signing of the scale by this firm is regard
ed by the members of the association as
special point gained, as it was supposed
that they would be among the last to
stand out for reduction. At the Knights
of Labor headquarters it was stated that
as yet no agreement had been reached
with the old employees who are Knights.

employees, when it is expected that the
men generally will decide to work, though
au effort may still be made to try and in
duce the firm to recognize labor organiza-

ABOUT INDIANA.
Ex-senator Mcdonald Says it is Safe fc
ths Democracy.

Ex-senator Mcdonald Says it is Safe for
ths Democracy.
WASHINGTON, July 26. Indiana, If ex-
Senator Mcdonald is correct in his views,
will vote for Cleveland and Thurman by q
safe majority. The dissatisfaction existing
among the Democrats in 1886 has, he says,
disappeared. Judge Thurman has great
personal popularity in Indiana, while Har-
rison can do no better than get his party
vote.
General Harrison, Mr.. Mcdonald said,
sis man of considerable ability, and will
probably make no great blunder during the
campaign. He has not, however, made q
special study OF the question on which the
immediate discussions Of the day are based.
He is Republican by inheritance, but he
has no special strength outside his
party, and particularly none with
lsboring people. The friends Of Governor
Gray will probably not do much sulking,
for they have nothing to get and every
thing to lose by it. The Democratic State
ticket is q strong one, and the State Com
mittee is working harmoniously for the
party success. The State is naturally
Democratic on full vote. The loss Of it
in 1886 was due to the disaffection, which
kept many Democrats away from the polls.
That has blown over and the full Demo-
cratic vote will be cast"
Ex-senator Mcdonald said further that
he expects to take sn active part in the
campaign by spec eechmsking and work. The
two United States Senators, voorhees, and
Turpie, will also speak all over the State,
and every effort will be made to make the
majority for Cleveland and Thurman
larger than ever before given to the Demo
cratic Presidential candidates.
