Tombstone epitaph., 1888-08-11

A writer in the Oregonian newspaper calls attention to the fact that the experi- ence of mining men leads to the belief that mineralized veins have, with rare exceptions, northerly and southerly di- rectien. The connection in which this theory is adduced by the Oregonian wri- ter, is the claimed existence of a con- tinuous ore belt from California into British Columbia as has been shown from discoveries at different points in the general north and south line. This writer ventures to assert-and we are in- clined to the same opinion-that gold can be found on every stream that rises on the western slope of the Cascade mountains in northern Oregon to the California line, and that with proper prospecting and research, a profitable mining industry may be developed in that quarter under the advantages of an abundant supply of wood and water with close proximity to cheap food and labor. It is we'll known that gold, both in pla- cers and quartz veins, exist in Arizona and south into Mexico, and the time is not far distant when water storage in immense dams and reservoirs will open up these discovered but undeveloped gold fields.
Tombstone epitaph., 1888-08-11

Since General Sheridan was stricken down some three months ago, the Amer. ican people have alternated between hope and fear, and now fear has merged into deep sorrow at the taking off of one, who as he was honored for his bravery and fearlessness in war, will ever be revered for his justness and nobility in peace He was neither writer, politician nor a statesman, but he was brave man with a great human heart, a patriot who loved his country, soldier who risked his life in her defense, and when the arms were stacked and the flags furled, extended the free and open hand of friendship 10 the fallen foe. His achievements in the field will live in the English language so long as history and poetry embalm in its numbers the deeds of it's heroes. The story of his life, from humble boyhood to exalted manhood, its trials and its reali- ration will teach to the youth of the land he loved so well, lesson in valor and patriotism that like his memory will exis, through the cycles of time.

A good authority, the St. Paul Globe says: "1he Hon. Chas. Gibson, who is more familiar with Indiana politics than any man living outside of the State, is of the opinion that Governor Gray's defeat for the Vice Presidential nomination will have no effect in disturbing the Demo. cratic majority in that State. He is oi the opinion that Thurman is as strong in Indiana as any Indiana man would have been. He is furthermore of the opinion that Governor Gray will make the most vigorous effort of his life to carry Indiana for the Democratic ticket, knowing very we'll that if he does he will make his own calling and election sure for the Presi- dency four years hence.
Tombstone epitaph., 1888-08-11

Why is not more done to develop the mineral wealth of this section. Favored beyond all others in the southwest in the production of gold, silver and copper, yet, there seems a lack of energy and capital to develop the mines to the limit of their production. There is no indus try more exciting, interesting or profit able than mining. "The product which it pours into the channels of commerce and manufacture is, in large sense, per manent and indestructible; as is we'll known that nearly all the metals are used again and again, in various forms and under changing conditions, but prac' tically never disappearing. It will readi. ly be seen that such products differ widely from those that require to be constantly replenished at the cost ol further investment of labor and capital and when once used are lost and des
 troyed forever. Gold and silver are the worlds measure of valuet They repre- sent the sum total of the product of hu- man enterprise and industry, and it ha: been shown from the earliest record: that an important influx of these preciou: metals, by new discovery or increased movement in the direction of their pro
 duction, has always been followed by un
 usual activity, an era of prosperity anc marked impetus in every direction o human progress. Its vitalizing infu
 ence has been felt and its vivifying spiri
 manifested so the fact has become st well authenticated that there can be nt question in regard to its operation"
