As the interest in gold quartz mil

. few hints to the novices would be
timely. 1t is supposed of course tina,
you eau determine quartz. In pros.
pecsins your ledge, if tho out. crop Is
dim. take your dirt from each place
whore decomposed quartz shows.
Number such place aud put cor
responding number in your sack Of
dirt. Devote one day to this, samp.
ling the entire ledge ut intervals.
Tho following day wash oil your
samples in \ pan, it deco,nposed,
crush ia \ mortar and horn ii hard
rock. II any of the samples "csrry"
go the following day with pick and
shovel and sink on lodge where you
obtained the hes. prospect and sample
every six inches across the ledge,
taking an eigh..pound sample of each,
sma'gamati"g it in your pan. Retort
aud weigh. using Melville Atwood's
table OF computation. II your gold
is free you now have an approximate
estimate Of what your rock will mill.
When sulphurcts exist find their
percentage and value by fire assay.
Don't bother with acid tests unless
you have all the necessary experience
and appliances. You ar. now pre-
pared to develop as long as your funds
and the ledge justify.
Never leave your "pay chute"
Sample daily that you may not lose

economical working must be done By
capital. Doa* BE- discouraged ~

CLEVELAND WORSrED.

That Cleveland stake" turns out
just as experienced newspaper men
believed it would. The language Of
she ex.Presidens WAS not only not -xa,
gsrated but actually toned down into
responsibility by the reporter. This
l. generally the case. Pc pile are
only too glad to air their views in the
presence OF newspaper men, in the
hope that they will be published; but
they wish to shirk responsibility for
their views or opinions, and endeaver
to have the men Of tho lead pencil
adopt or publish them Is their own.
This, in plain language, can be ex-
pressed - trying t, get others to do
their dirty work, while they sneak
under cover.
Cleveland did use the language At.
tribused to him. OF tina, We have not
the least doubt. And Charles A.
Dana properly resented it, and Nh.
Cleveland got the worst Of it. That
Is not doubtful either. And if the
result proves to be dead duck in the
Presidential pool the country will be
the better for il.

For the HERALD.
'This seems to be the favorite an
swer of the heady, hIgh-minded and
reckless, who propose to disregard /
good counsel and follow the devices
Of their own hearts. A young man
when warned against strong drink,
says: Z am able to take care of my
self But it is frequently the case,
that, before the end of his career, he
needs two or three policemen, a num-
Der of sheriffs, cOnstables, lawyers,
judges, jailors, and sometimes hang
man, to take care of him. He is by
no means so independent as he sup
poses. A girl says: Z can take care
of myself She goes from her quiet
home, plunges into the whirl of some
great city, spends everything she can
earn for vanity and folly, and finally
starves in a garnet or dies of consump-
ton, when she might, in her quiet
country home, have lived a happy and
useful woman, blessing IN the world
and blessed and honored by all around
her. 4 can take care of myself says
q business man when riding on the
tide of prosperity, he Expresses the
poor and treads down the needy. But
by and by financial troubles come,
and he finds himself straitened and
borne down into the whirl pool of
bankruptcy and disaster and all his
bravado is gone. No man lIveth to
himself Neither men nor women
are able to defy their fellows, or to
reject the friendship or disregard the
sympathies Of their kind. We all of
US need something with which we
cannot supply ourselves. We are de-
pendent on others for a thousand
friendly offices, and 1t is well for us
to acknowledge our dependency and
to listen to the councils Of those who
advise US for our good. Pride goeth
| before destruction and a naughty
spirit before a fall He who claims
that he can take care Of himself is
very likely to be poorly cared for,
and to require much more assistance
than others do who are less self, conf
dent, and more willing to accept the
counsels of their friends and the help
of God" G. G.. R.

(HERALD's Comments :)-No we do
not dissent from the position taken
by the Alliance Advocate. We en-
dOrse the above and have taken that
view of the situation all the time. We
are glad that the AdUocate and the
HERALD now understand each other,
as. we take the same view of the farm
erS movement, and We felt sure that
our Topeka cotempOrary did not at
first understand our position, and
now we know It did not.

The following appeared N the
Long Island Leader of Feb. ID:
S. n. Tubbs, treasurer of Granite
township. was In the city Monday to
draw the township funds for this year.
While here he discovered that the
County Clerk had neglected to charge
the railroad taxes in that township for
two years past, thus entailing a con
siderable lOss.--DispGtcb
Mr.. S. J. Hartman says that the
above is not correct. Here is his state
ment: The County Treasurer's books
show that S. n. Tubbs drew on Feb.
3. 1890 s653.12. OF that S4O5.93 was
railroad taxes and out of the latter
amount SI95.3O was road tax. The
railroad tax for 1887 was S9A65, for
1888 was SIO2.65, so It appears that
the Dispatch is In error as the Clerk
had charged up the taxes all correct
". The business Of the Dispatch is
to now correct It's false assertion.

The Downs Times gives a half col
unn account of how J. Il Pierce a
LAWYER from Omaha, came to Downs
to kill c. ". DobIer, a Photograph
er there. He was insane from whisky
and morphene, and went to Dobler's
place Of business and confronting
Dobler with a cooked revolver declar-
ed he had come all the way from
Omaha to kill him. Mr.. DobIer by
strategy succeeded in temporarily
pacifying the drunken man till he
could be disarmed. Pierce's only
cause of offense was that Mr.. Dobler
had sent Mrs. Pierce a half dozen
photos Of herself and daughter with
an explanatory note IN regard to the
negative which he had taken when
the ladies were in Downs recently.
He took them from the postofice in
Omaha and being drunk burned them
up and started for Downs threaten
ing to murder the artist The Times
says he is a physical, intellectual and
moral wreck from liquor drinking.

In referring to the doctrine Of in
FAINT damnatioD, the Rev. Henry Van
Dyke, 10 his address before the Pres
bytery in session in New York City,
said: 1T is horrible doctrine, and
I have not one tear to shed or one
sigh to offer over its disappearance.
I intend to teach that there are no in
fants in hell, that there is no limit to
Gods love and that no man is pun
ished save for his own sin. I intend
to teach that God loves all mankind
and with a love we cannot fathom or
understand" If this be Ingersolism
the sticklers for the Westminster
creed must make the most Of it.

There is one crop that has never
failed in western Kansas Even IN
the dryest weather broom corn has
always paid handsome return, and
there has always been a ready mar
ket for It. Both last year aud the
year previous all the broom corn that
was marketable was sold at a reason
able price. Some Of last years crop
was sold as high as $50 per ton 1t
has been clearly proven that broom
corn csn be successfully grown This
being the case, knowing that a good
crop viii insure a ready market,
would it not be wise for every farmer
in the county to give at least a part
of his time, attention and labor to
raising broom corn2 Suppose each
