Farmers Journal: The powers

given them opportunity to dictate TO

Little News From the
Mines

The excitement attending the Seven
Devils mines seems to be abating
Little news from the mines is arriving
in Baker City and the same is the
case at Hunting, Weiser, Payette,
and Salubria judging. from the con
splcuous absence of items in the
papers published in these towns.
Why this should be, unless people
are not taking to the boom, we are
unable to determine, but it is the
Democrats opinion that the failure
Of the steamboat "Norman to make
regular trips has had more to do with
1t than anything else The running
OF the boat is what the boom first
started on and without it there will
he little excitement attending the
iuines from this time on. There must
be better means of transportation
OF the ores Of the camp to market
than by wagon and without it the
Seven Devils will not become poor
mans camp for some time to come.
In case the boat changes ownership,
which is very likely, renewed
interest in the mines will occur and
the great COPPER region will blossom
out with second Anaconda. In the
meantime let the work on the wagon
roads continue and be ready to reap
all the benefits possible which are
sure to accrue sooner or later. Bed
rock Democrat
1t is true that little news from
the mines is arriving and that
many disappointed men are coming
out, but they are those who, after
having been told that there was not
work for hundreds on account of the
the mines not being developed suf-
iiciently, had gone in broke and were
forced to come out in that plight
Many men of means have gone in and
they are staying there, and those of
them who do come out are very
enthusiastic and express their in
tention to return. 1t is those who go
IN broke and expect to pick up a
fortune Immediately that are
growing. The SIGNAL predicted this
carly last spring The men with
money who can see the great future
OF the camp stay there, that is why
no news is arriving.

When asked who the Democrats were like

Cleveland was the most likely candidate, but
the Democrats would not be as unanimous
for Cleveland rs the Republicans would be
Tor their candidate. Bad times, Mr.. Depew
SAID, would disappear under the assured
prosperity of the farmers. The Mckinley

A GIG SCHEME, THIS.
Union of Canadian Pacific, Grand
Trunk and Boston & Maine.

MONTREAL, July pa new phase has de-
veloped in the big railway deal going on be-
tween the Canadian Pacific and Grand Trunk
railways. to the effect that the Boston &
Maine railroad is also to be included in the
deal which, If consummated, will form one
of the biggest railroad combinations on the
continent. The idea Is to form great trans
continental pool between the Vanderbilts
and their roads to work against the Gould
and other American roads, with terminals at
New York, Boston, Portland and Halifax,
and line OF transatlantic steamers in con-
nection Herewith. II the arrangements are
carried out, these lines will contest the traf-
tic of half the continent.
The Grand Trunk people here still claim to
be ignorant Of the deal, although a gentle
man who is intimate with the officers, says
the officers were certain that the Canadian
vate cable from London says that the rumor
published last night was cabled to London,
and affected both the stock of the Canadian
Pacific aud the Grand Trunk, the latter ad-
yancing to So. The head of large express
concern says the story is current in Boston,
and is credited there.
What would be the effect of the deal ?"
was asked of railway man.
simply this; that the Grand Trunk and
Canadian Pacific, working in harmony with
the Vanderhilts, could carry freight from
the great West cheaper and more expedi-
tiously to the seaboard than any other roads
on the continent. 1t is the best thing which
could happen to the two Canadian roads, and
l know for fact that Mr.. Van Horne has
long been favorable to it."
