DID IT ELICIT HARRlsoN7<C

The following appeared in Minnesota
paper: Members of the Democratic
party have been using all subterfuges to
account for their overwhelming defeat,
and numerous are the causes alleged.
II was talking with several of the
vauQuished on Fourth Street the other
day, opposite bill board, and one of the
party exclaimed: eff it had not been for
the closeness OF the National Committee
in the expenditure of money, we would
have elected our man. The Republicans
advertised their man like q circus"
Several of the party remarked that no
advertising was done except small an
! nouncements in the papers, and few
1 hangers" on the dead walls.
Han scrs?' said our informant.
"What do You call that but circus
poster?" Pointing to a twelve-sheet
medicine poster on the bill board, bear
ing the cuts of Gen. Harrison and his
grandfather.
"If the Democrats had advertised like
that, Cleveland would have been re-
elected"
The poster referred to was one of the
familiar black and white Log Cabin Sar-
saparilla posters sent out by an enter
prising firm engaged in the manufacture
Of old log-cabin home-cures, under the
name of Warmers Log Cabin Remedies,
and among other equally valuable articles
includes the famous Log Cabin Sar-
'aparilla, which is everywhere recognized
IS the best of all spring medicines and
stands without rival for the cure of ali
disorders which are the results Of impure
blood.

ton; the long winter has caused the
blood to become filled with impurities.
There exists no better means to aid
and strengthen the system at such an
urgent period than the use of Warmers
Log Cabin Sarsaparilla, which speedily
restores the blood to pure and healthy
state, which insures health and happi-
| ness. i.
The reputation Of the firm putting out
the medicine is above reproach, and is
the same firm which manufactures War
ner's Safe Cure the standard remedy for
tine cure OF all those diseases peculiar to
the kidneys as we'll as those which are
the results of disease in those organs,
| and which has met with such pheno-
| menal success for the past ten years.
We understand that the posters referred
to made their appearance in many parts
| OF the country sometime prior to the
Chicago Convention which nominated
Gen. Harrison as q candidate for the
Presidency-hence the use made OF the
portraits of the Harrisons, father and
| grandson-was either the result of re-
| markable political foresight or in accord
ance with the historical association of
the old Log CABIN with the name OF Har-
rison.

N. Y. Engineering and Mining Joarnal.l
We take the following description
of the admirable work in the Terri.
BILE Mine at Isle, Custer County, from
our contemporary, Mining Industry.
When the amount of timbering that
has to be done is taken into account
it is wonderful record. 1t is prob
ably the largest mine in Colorado and
was closed down on the LIST inst,
owing to the low price of lead.
1t lis purely lead mine, and the
only one in the State that has been
worked exclusively for that metal. It
is owned by the Omaha and Grant
smelling people, aud its ore is used
by them to supply the lack of lead
that is sometimes experienced. The
ore is exclusively lead Donate,
entirely free from sulphur, and carry
ing very little silver. The mine is a
vein, dipping about 20 degrees from
the horizontal, and measuring l19
feet from wall to wall. Its walls are
rhyolite, there being no lime found
II the country. The ore body, as it
is mined, is 81 feet in width, and it is
timbered with square sets. An aver.
age of $1,000 feet Of timber has been
used monthly during the past year.
The ore is concentrated without any
hand sorting, ten tons being put into
one, which averages 6S per cent lead.
For concentration Cornish rolls and
Hartz jigs only are used. The aver.
age daily product of the mine during
the past year has been $50 tons, but
1000 tons could be easily produced
with the present opening and hosting
facilities. It is now 800 feet deep.
1t was expected that the character of
the ore would change below water
level, which was at depth of 100
feet, but it has not changed; no ga
lena, zinc or sulphides have been
found. The shaft is vertical, skis
feet in the clear, fitted with a single
deck cage that carries two cars. Sink
ing the shaft, including timbering,
cost but SIG per foot. The entire cost
of hosting the ore during the past
year, including fuel, engineers, pump.
ing, etc., it is reported, has amounted
to but l3 cents per ton; and the entire
cost of putting the ore on the cars, in.
Guiding mining, timbering, hosting
managers salary, and hauling nine
miles to the railway has been bu,
81 .46 per ton. This is the cheapes,
mining ever reported in Colorado. NJ
man has yet been killed or injured il
the mine, and it is said TO be the bes
sample of good work and timberinl
IN the State.

THE PROPOSED RAILR0AD.
Judge Berry Says that 1t Would Prov Q
Paying Investment.

"A TINES reporter met Judge Berry,
before he left for Cballis this morn.
ing, and had q very interesting con-
ve.sation with him concerning the
proposed HALEY and Boise Railway.
Mr.. Berry said, in substance, that
he was satisfied that the railroad
would pay, and pay we'll. If the
builders were careful and not allow
themselves to become entangled IN
the meshes of either, the Chicago &
Northwestern and the Union Pacific
would both want it; and as the North.
western would surely have to have
it as q part OF its through line it
would probably bid higher for it than
the Union Pacific company. The cost
Of the road, one mile with another
and inclusive of the rolling stock,
need not exceed $4,000; yet the
Northwestern would doubtless be
glad to get it for $4,000 per mile.
The amount proposed to be raised
here-S20, OO0-Judge Berry said, is
rather small. But perhaps Boise
would assist. At any rate if we could
get 10 miles of road built there would
be very little trouble in building right
along, after that; as, as soon as one
section was completed it could be
bonded for enough to complete the
next.-and so on.

Making. buttons OF blood Is ono Of
the many ways known Of utilizing
waste. There Is large factory in
Bridgeport, near Chicago. employing
about one hundred boys and girls, in
which waste animal blood is converted
into buttons. Tho same firm has
another large factory elsewhere. A
man named Hirsh was the first to In
troduce the business into this country,
some years ago. He lost SIG, 900 the
first six months, but he stuck to II and
is now immensely wealthy. There are
o number OF similar factories in En-
gland. From eight thousand to ten
thousand gallons OF blood are
used In the Bridgeport factory
every day. Nothing but fresh
beef blood is used. 1t is said
that pigs blood Is just as good,
but 1t is too much trouble TO collect and
save II. Considerable Of the blood
evaporates during the process OF dry
ing, but what remains is pure albu-
men. Some of It is light in color, and
some dark. according to the chemical
treatment given it These thin sheets
OF dried blood are then broken
up, and are ready to be worked into
various shapes and sizes. Not only
are buttons made from blood in this
way, but tons OF earrings, breastpins,
belt-clasps, combs and trinkets are
made annually there from blood

Ballooners Who Have Tried II Pronounce
IL Very Hard Work.
We do not hear Of ignorant people
flying up In balloons, but that is be-
cause these vehicles nro more difficult
to obtain than gigs or boats; also, be-
cause ballooning Is not nearly such
good fun US riding, driving or boating.
Neither is II necessary that the bal
looner-a much better word than
mronaut--should be ignorant TO put his
actions on the level with those we have
described. However expert he may be,
he is as much at the mercy OF accidents
us the morest bungler in boat The
wind blows him about. He gets freez-
ing cold and can not help himself.
His machine bumps against trees
and things when he is coming down,
because 1t is whirling helplessly about,
aud, as his ballast has been already
thrown out TO smash the conservatories
and hats of the lieges, he can not go up
again. The bump throws him out and
he breaks his nose and his snuff-box.
Every now and then he is dipped In
salt wator and dragged out by the
passing smack. The crew revives him
with salt horse and Hamburg gin
bought from North sea cooper. which
gives him bad headache, Why he
goes through all this nobody knows.
He sees nothing when he is up, and
when he is down he sees what the rest
OF us do who trust W our legs.
At times he does little science
OF the kind which proves tho
already proved and entirely unim-
portant for the hundredth and If
iioth time, He is immensely proud OF
this, and the scientific papers mention
him. 1t is very right to him TO make
the most OF his luck, but whether 1t
was worth while TO go through 30 much
10 obtain so little is question. To be
sure, it is no use arguing tho point
with him.
The true ballooner thinks IL cred
table thing TO show over and over
again that no will risk broken bones
and drowning to show that Montgolficr
had found out all about the machine q
long time ago II he likes the occu-
patton he must be allowed to follow Il,
since we live In time OF freedom.

not share his faith is to keep on telling
him he is silly fellow, and to mako
him pay damages for tho things he
breaks with his ballast, his grspnel
and his car.-London Saturday Re-

Handy In Most Shops.
John Bull uses lot OF iron in maxi
ing tools, but he makes some mighty
good ones--sometlmes. A Scotch
branch of an English machinery house
has recently brought out a gas-ham-
mer which must prove worry handy In
the shop Instead OF steam furnishing
the motive power, mildly explosive
mixture OF common coal gas and at
mospherlc air is employed. 1t is used
to propel the hammer piston very
much as in the cylinder OF gas en-
gine. Softer blows arc given by ro-
ducing the range OF movement OF the
hand-lever. and the force Of the blow
can DO regulated as easily and accu-
rately as with the steam-hammer.
The hammer is that known as

but the ordinary blow struck by y
is equal to weight OF threc hun.

which at 2s. Cd per 1000 cubic feet
costs one penny. or $500 light and
heavy blows can be struck for the
same sum. The hammer is always
ready for work at any moment, day or
night, for long or short periods. md 1t
works ut the same economical rate for
one blow as for 1909. 1t Is only nee
