A good deal of ore is being taken
Ut of the old workings of the Unioa

times this ore was cast aside as being
of too little value to ship, but now
that a railroad affords cheap transport

The Highest and Lowest.

Late advices from the Government
exploration party in Death Valley re-
port all the men in good health and
the work progressing satisfactorily.
The greatest heat thus far experienced
has been 81 degrees in the shade, with
a disagreeably hot north wind. The
Inyo Independent says the party ex-
poets to finish up in Death Valley
about the latter part of next month,
and then go to Mount Whitney. The
rise will be the greatest possible in the
territory of the United States-Death
Valley being the lowest and Mount
Whitney the highest point.

A Foolish Plan.

The Commissioners of Elko county
have sent their printing to San Fran
cisco to be done because they can
save 81 per thousand on the county
blanks. Some of the other counties
in the State do the same thing, and
Bancroft and Carlysle, of San Fran
cisco, are making what ought to be
given to the home papers. Every
county In the State has job Office, we
believe, and Is prepared to do all coun-
ty work at reasonable rates. No coun-
ty will make anything by saving a
dollar a thousand ON blanks, and the
action of the Elko Board shows that
the people OF that county have elected
parsimonious set of officers Day

The Sweetwater BONANZA.

There is no longer any doubt that
the strike made by A P. Sayre In his

the development careful examination,

souri, and in every county in the
State. Offices are to be filled in
Audrain county, the occupants of
which will have in their hands the
most sacred interest of a county that
Is now the pride of her people and
the envy Of her sister counties. AL
ready the candidate is whetting his
sickle for the harvest. Now is the
time for prudence on the part of
those whose high prerogative it is to
say who shall fill these offices. Now
is the time to hear all things, but
hold fast to your tongue and prom
Use nothing. Your ballot is yours,
and no man has a right to question
you or for whom you will use it.
See to it, fellow citizens, that you
promise it to no one until the field is
full and you know who is in the
race, and then vote for the man who
is best qualified. The Democratic
party in Audrain owes nothing to
any of our citizens. 1t has done
more for any and all of them than
they could do for the party.
