John is an old Badger state boy,

have been mining without success
for many years past. The lead is
the purest galena, and solid chunks
weighing from fifty to 1900 pounds
are said to be in sight, 1t is esti-
mated that the mine will yield 5000
pounds of ore per day.

PUBLIC SALE.-Because of change
in location, Mr.. Albert White will
offer at auction on the Miller farm,
one quarter mile southeast of the
village of Mifflin, on Saturday of
this week, (Aug. 30), four choice
milk cows, seven two-year-olds, ssv-
en- yearlings, ten spring calves, and
a good two-year-old bull; a Cham
pion mower, salky corn plow, hay

also a large quartity of good hay
and seven acres of standing corn.

FROM Richland Center it is an
nounced that work is being pushed
rapidly forward on the Kickapoo
Valley railroad One hundred and
fifty men are now employed in
grading between Soldiers Grove
and the southern terminous, and
that the work of laying ties has
begun. The. people living on the
line of this proposed new road are
rejoicing over the prospect of the
road being completed at an early
day. The village of Viola is in
creasing in population rapidly in
consequence.
FROM our farmer friends who
have called the past week, we have
learned that the corn crop in this
county may turn out better than
expected. The damp weather of
the past few days has given corn a
dark green color, and the ears have
begun to fill out. The drought has
damaged corn, but if we have rains,
and favorable fall without early
frosts, there will be considerable
corn harvested. We are glad to
hear this, for corn will bring fair
price, and the farmers need the
money now if ever they did.
The person who comes in and
stops his home paper because he
thinks it is too costly an article and
that he can get city weekly cheap
er, is not acquainted with facts. A
city weekly is made up almost en-
tirely from the dailys with but little
extra work. The country editor
labors a whole week to get out his
edition. The reading matter in
your home paper is entirely different
from that of the city paper. If you
are not at all interested in things
going on around you, of course you
do not care to take the home paper.
If you should get married, if you
should die, or do most anything
worthy of notice, you would not ex-
pect the city weekly to mention it.
The home paper will be on the scene
at once and give you your just dues.

Little Willie, the elephant who occu-
pies the middle cage in the elephant
house at Central park, has peer causing
his keeper a good deal of trouble recent
ly, and several times has made vicious at
tempts to strike him and break out. As
a last resort a little terrier, smaller than
a cat, has been tied in Willie's cage.
This precaution has proven effective, for
Willie, who has killed several keepers,
and is almost as high as the roof over
him, is thoroughly afraid of the puppy.
When the elephant is drinking the puppy
frequently drives him away with a snap.
Director Conklin is preparing Lizzie.

THEY ACTED WISELY.

There can be no doubt that the action
of the Democratic majority in the council
in considering the governors nominations
will be commended by the conservative
people of the territory. They base their
determination to retain the present terri
torial oficia ais on the fact that statehood
is imminent, and changes now made
could only result in harm to the public
service.
Our dispatches from Washington
clearly indicate that the elevation of Wyo
ming to statehood can now be only a mat
ter of a few months time. Any new
territorial officials will take their seats on
March 81, and in the nature of things
could not iamiliarize themselves with the
routine of their office tslsiness before
giving way to the state officers who would
probably succeed them very soon there
after. This view of the case no doubt
struck the members of the council with a
great deal of force. and, inspired with a
desire to maintain the prevailing high
standard OF efficiency in the public ser.
vice. they came to the conclusion so
clearly stated in the resolutions which they
adopted.
We have no doubt that an effort will
be made to give a partisan bias to the
action Of the council. 1t will be argued
that, although the council contains a
Democratic majority, the governor
is Republican and therefore should
not be prevented from max
ing such changes in the list
of territorial officials as his fancy or
self interest might dictate. Besides, it
will be argued, Governor Warren has
controlled and manipulated all legislative
gatherings previous to the sitting of the
constitutional convention and if the
present coun1il are not actuated by part
san motives in rejecting the governors
nominations OF new men, then why should
they attempt to thwart his wishes ?
Aren't his wishes clearly manifested on
their face? Doesn't he say in so many
words that he wants such a man for
treasurer and such q man for auditor ?
Should. therefore. a territorial council
composed of a majority of men of OPP
posing politics to the governors, simply
because partisan advantage has given
them the power, thus openly though in
directly show their disregard and cven dis
respect for alleged gubernatorial prerog-
atives and contempt for dominant Re
publican bossism?
There is no doubt that these and a
score Of other sophistical questions will be
asked and industrious efforts made to give
a partisan bias to q purely business prop
o%sition, but the vast majority of the con.
servatIve people OF the territory will ap
plaud the Democratic members of the
council in their effort to keep the machin
cry of government in smooth RAINING or
der during the brief interval which must
now elapse before congress %coufers state
hood upon us.

is to be erected in the grounds at o.

ard explains that the queen has been
suffering from rheumatism of late, and
her summer practice of breakfasting in
a tent upon the lawn may have done
much to encourage this painful malady.
The pavilion is to be placed upon a basis
of hard concrete, SO that her majesty
may be able to enjoy her meal almost in
