bright has found the lost vein
which for twenty years has been
sought for in vain. 1t was located
in Pomeroy mountain two miles
northwest of Caribou. The strike
consists of six.inch streak of
almost solid silver, and the crevice
is four feet wide, good and strong.
Rich float in large pieces has been
found which ran $4,000 ounces of
silver to the ton, but as the noun
tain in this vicinity is covered by a
forty'foot slide, it was impossible
to locate the vein, although thous-
ands Of dollars has been spent in
the search. Ore from this chute
will run from $4,000 to $4,000

it cuts with a knife like lead.
There is no question as to this
being the long-lost lead, and it is
the only silver glance mine in the
district. Albright has made the
this discovery his life work, and
recently commenced drifting on a
crosscut tunnel which was aban-
doned two years ago by miners
looking tor the same lead. After
drifting only eight feet the ore
chute was found. Caribou is,wild
over this immense find. Mining
has received an impetus as never
before.

of favored class, hence the neces-
sity of Il peoples party. Under
the present law the miner gets the
bullion value of silver and the spec
ulator gets the coin value, differ
ence of about thirty cents on the
dollar; either the government is
Spectator or the gold-bugs, and
the people are beginning to think
that neither have right to 80 per
cent. of their hard earnings. Mr..
Knox further says.
"The bank of France holds $780,
100000 of silver coin which was
manufactured years ago when the
price of bullion was at least 20 per
cent higher than now. 1t holds its
silver at a loss of fifty million
Other European banks will hold
large amounts of silver at great loss
which was purchased many years
ago. If the advocates of free coin
age are correct in their theory that
we can open our minis to silver and
vet maintain gold payments, then
the banks Of Europe will have an
opportunity as silver advances in
value gradually to transfer their
silver boards from their own vaults
to the vaults of our treasury and
recoup large portion of their loss.
1t is plain, therefore, that as silver
advances in value the foreign bull
lion.will cross the ocean to realize
the handsome profit SO long as the
tempting offer is held out such by
such foolish statutes as the act pro-
viding for the free coinage Of
silver"
There is at least one huge lie in
the last quotation. Neither the
bank Of France nor any other
European bank will ever bring it's
silver to this country for coinage.
1t would not be worth any more as
United States coin than it is as
French coin. Mr.. Knox seems to
assume that the United States
would have to buy it, under a free
coinage law the United States buys
nothing. If France wanted to con-
vert her coin into American dollars
she could do SO, but could not put a
dollar of it into circulation without
buying something that somebody
wanted to sell, and as our govern
ment has no business selling any
thing, not dollar of it would ever
60 into our national treasury unless
we get value received at our own
option. The bank of France could
not thrust her silver upon us as a
gift unless we were willing to take
it. United States legal tender
dollars would not be legal tender
in France. If France wishes to
swap her silver for our wheat, corn,
cotton or beef, let her bring it over
and if we can make "dicker."
we will swap, and Mr.. John Jay
Knox can sit bye and groan, be-
cause he is not in it, while our
yankees rake in the shekels.
No doubt Senator Stewart is
able to take care of his side of the
silver question, but the associated
press is in very small business
sending out such rot for the far
mers of America to read. I would |
suggest that the gold-bugs hunt up
an agent that can do a little
smoother lying than Mr.. J. j.
Knox. Please send me an extra
copy of THE TRIBUNE that I may |
send one to Mr.. Knox with the |
compliments of the miners and
farmers of Idaho. w.
