A Spicy Letter From st. Louis.

Ed. Register-A little gossip, main
ly personal, is the best can do this
week. / had in tended offering on this
occasion series of interviews with the
gentlemen of the three great mining
industries of Iron county, but the ad-
dltional work devoivipg on the staf,in
cident to the red bot campaign that is
now attaining to white heat, has
compelled me to forego that duty. |
will endeavor to supply it next week,
and will, perhaps, be able to present
facts. figures and views that will give
your readers foundation in which to
build castle of predictions.
That the granite trsde is fraught
with rich promise, is evident both from
the plans l have seen in arch itects
hands here, and which show a marked
increase in the popularity of Missouri
granite, and from the remark made to
roe by Hon. F. w. Mott, one of the
founders of the company. He said he
had recently received a dividend that,
added to former requirements. made a
total return of 81 900 on an investment
of that amount, that being the interest
he still retains, and which he offers to
sell for S4, ,000-300 per cent. But he is
Indifferent about selling at even that
figure.
Some very edifying articles are being
presented by the i0be-DeDaocrdt, de-
liBlating the history of mining in
Southeast Missouri, and which are the
beginning of an attempt to portray the
vast mineral resources of that region.
1t is something of which the world
should be informed. In fact, Missouri
| mineral, as a whole, cannot much
longer remain, comparatively, a~hid-
den treasure, while less staple fields,
farther beyond ARE ramsacked at haZ-
ard, which wrecks more fortunes than
it builds. 1t is worthy Of note, that no
correctly conducted mining venture in
that section has failed. 1t will be but
q few years, Judging from the present
outlook, when Missouriis mines will be
standard and developed as fast as time
will permit.
From what I can CLEAN. the quaries
of Schneider & Sons are to be esta blish-
ed on permanent basis. The granite
region has, undoubtedly, struggled
through its infancy to youth-prime,
progressive youth. The institution oil
a general merchandise store in wha,
the "Quaker" once named "SIeepy
Hollow" will form nucleus for con.
siderable town.
The Irontonians still resort to the
city. Ed. Tetwiler, who has for a lone
time arranged the alphabet into various
combinations for the REGISTER, is now
doing the same for the Critic, the lead
ing secular weekly here. and which re.
quires the best Typography.
Bro. B. T. Thomas has been left in

Knox Ryan, with his long, semi
graceful form, and pleasant face. shows

that he was to have been married to a
