From Lost River.

C. II. and Thomas Ross came in
from Lost River last Wednesday.
They have lease on the Star OF
Hope mine and have been prose
cutting work on the same all winter.
They have considerable ore on the
dump ready for shipment. Besides
extracting ore they have been do
ing development work on the mine,
having sunk a shaft on the vein
from the tunnel level to depth OF
100 feet, and as far as they have
gone with the shaft the mine Is
looking we'll. They report the snow
only about eight inches deep in the
valley below their mining property,
and that some of McKim's stock
has been wintering in the hooks
and crooks of the valley without
much loss. They will return as
soon as they can get supplies to
the mine.

MINING SUMMARY.

The Range and Valley Of late
date, referring to the outlook of the
Pine Grove mining district, says
A shaft has been sunk on the
Gold Hill claim Is feet, showing at
the bottom 20 inches of 5000 ore /;
this pay streak being continuous
from the grass roots down and wild
ening as depth is attained. A cross
cut tunnel has been pushed forward
which has tapped this same vein
80 feet below the bottom of the
shaft, and number of men are
now working it and taking out large
quantities of ore which also aver
ages over 5000 per ton. This ore
is being sacked as fast as taken out.
There is also parallel vein on the
Gold Hill location about 200 feet
from the shaft, which has been un-
covered over 1000 feet on the sur
face, and ore taken from any point
thereon averages 500 in gold per
ton, free milling rock. This vein
ranges from one to three feet in
width. They are now asserting and
sacking about 100 sacks per day,
each sack of which is worth at least
SIS. A tunnel is being driven on
this ledge which is now about 60
feet under the surface, and shows
ore assaying from $25 to 800 per
ton.
w. II. Casio & Co., of Ketchum,
have purchased from parties living
in Boise City the Leonard mining
claim located at Seafoam, in the
Sheep mountain district. This is
said to be very fine prospect, and
containing exceedingly rich ore in
gold, silver and lead.
On account of some defect in the
boilers connected with the hosting
and pumping works at the North
Star mine it became necessary to
suspend work temporarily.
James Slower of the Highland
Mary mine in Bassett gulch reports
that the mine is looking we'll and
producing considerable high-grade
ore.
The News Miner says that the
Minnie Moore mine is shipping ore
Just as it comes from the 800-foot
level, [evidently meaning without
asserting or separating.I
It is reported that the strike in
the Queen of the Hills mine, made
a few days ago, is the finest devel-
opment that has been made in the
mine for the past year. Deep work
ings begin to pan out.
News from Boulder received yes
terday, state that the Yankee Blade
mine is still holding it's regular
yield, and a large quantity of ore
is out ready to be shipped as soon
as the road will admit.
A fine strike is reported in the
Silver Crown mine at East Fork O.
Wood River. A foot of high-gradt
galena ore has been developed. L
is said that pieces of ore weighing
upwards of two hundred pounds
are being taken from the vein. Thi:
discovery is probably the fines
ever made in the mine.
Messrs. Clemens, Bynum anc
others have located the extension
of the Occidental mine in Green
horn gulch. They have lately dis
covered some very fine ore in sew
eral places along the course of thu
vein, varying from ten inches to
foot wide. The samples brough
into town certainly show high-grad'
and the fortunate owners have thu
best wishes of the KEYSTONE in thei
lucky find.

A Nogales (Arizona) dispatch of
March 9th says the officials of the
State of Sonora, Mexico, have been
notified that the Serils Indians, a
tribe inhabiting Tiburan Island, in
the Gulf of California, have crossed
over the Straits of Inferinalillo to
Sonora, where they are committin
innumerable depredations on an
extensive scale. Many claim the
Serils are cannibals. AS fact they
are the only Indians in North Amei
lea using poisoned arrows and sub.
sisting upon uncooked food. They
are fond of uncooked, decomposcd
meat. In size, appearance and
language they differ from all North
American Indians. and resemble
the Malayans. A party Of Turks
visited Tiburan Island some years
4 ago and claimed the Indians spoke
the language of the Turks. The
Mexicans regard the Serils with
great fear.

Tho Tarin BIZ Appendix.

Iundu6lpnlA Record
The cry that war tax-s should be re-
pealed because the war is over has little
sense in it. The war is over only in SO
f1r that we have stopped fighting and gone
to work to repair damages. Until the
debt shall have been paid, and the pen
sioners satisfied, immense sums Of money
must be raised every year by taxation.
The war taxes that bear most heavily
upon the industrial occupations Of the
people, Gripping production, restricting
commerce and depressing labor, are the
taxes which should be first nghtened or
removed.
Instead Of cutting down the taxes on
whisky and tobacco, an enlightened re-
gard fer the public interest requires that
excessive taxation on the necessaries of
life should no longer be levied. To what
ever extent the fiscal necessities of the
government will permit, the shelter, food,
fuel, medicines, clothing and utensils of
outdoor and indoor labor should be
chespened. With the passage of the
moderate measure OF tax reduction ia
yOred by tee msjority Of the committee
on wsys and means not less than S2,-
100000 per week, which now goes into
theI Treasury and into the pockets of IA
Vored individuals, might remain in the
hands of the people.
TIE clSmor for the repeal OF the tobacco
and whisky taxes, backed as it is by every
protected interest in the country, is re-
spoDsible for the measure presented by
Chairman Mills yesterday in the commit
tee of ways and means to reduce the in

tobacco tax. On the principal that half
loaf is better than no bread, tariff re-
formers will undoubtedly try TO win favor
for proper tax reduction by consenting to
q reduction that is only comparatively
and doubtfully commendable. The con-
cession will be iustihsble because excess
sive taxation is more dangerous than
would be faulty reduction.
Whether we shall Gu down taxes prop
erly or improp rly, cut them down we
must. So much the imperiled business
of the country imperatively demands.

New York Mail and Express.
Judge Brady has Just pronounced the
opinion of the general term of the Su-
preme court OF this state to the effect
that 1t is q terminal conspiracy punish
able with imprisonment" for any number
OF men to agree together in order to make
1t impossible for any man to labor at the
trade or calling by which he gains his live
lihood. This decision was given
in q case that srise5 upon the
grievance Of man whom the Knights
pursued revengeiully by striking against
any establishment that employed him
His fidelity to his employer eppesrs to
have been the cause of their ill-will. He
had discovered dishonest way Of in
creasing wages, and discharged the man
who practiced it.; whereDpon the Knights
of Labor, taking up the cause Of the dis
missed man, eventually procured the dis
charge of the other; and following this,
they pursued him from city TO city, and q
strike was always ordered where he was
employed, so thst all shops were shut
against him. Upon his complaint
the leaders in the conspiracy were
arrested and held for trial, and the de-
cision Just given is in hsbeas corpus
proceedings for the discharge Of one Of
them from custody. The Supreme court
refuses to discharge him, sustaining in
this previous decision to the same effect
OF Judge Barrett, and holding, conse.
quently, that it is crime to thus pursue
any man. II it were rot CRIME all our
law would DC farce and the pretense
that ne are free people would be idle
nonsense; for s man would be free to dc
only what the Knights OF Labor permit

hunted down aud bounded to death.
