The Deep Creek Country 4.

The Salt Lake tribune says: The
tide is fast turning for prospectors to-
wards the Deep Creek country as
Spring opens. The strong probable
ity of the railroad being built out that
way this year has caused many to
plan for securing claims in some OF
the many mining districts which will
be tapped by the railroad, and now
that so many rich finds have been
made lately, many are planning to
90 there, feeling confident that there
will be money In such mining prop
erty as they hope to be able to secure,
since rich ore will pay we'll to bring
in with teams. Hardly day passes
now but what people start for that
country, so well outfitted as to be
able to stay through the Spring, and
others are preparing to go.

no Doubt be Taken.
In connection with the recent visit
here of Messrs. Cans and Heating,
the Montana mining men, and their
examination of the Joanna group of
mines, mention of which was made in
the NEWS of March 2Sth, the follow
ing from the Helena (Mont.) indie
dependent of the 31st is pertinent:
Helena parties have made big
deal in Nevada gold mine. A few
weeks ago several of Helena's leading
to send Messrs. John A. Heating and
citizens combined and made up purse
Joseph Cans to Nevada to look up u
prospect that had been represented to
them as being an immense mine.
These gentlemen returned on Sunday
and report the mine as one of the
largest and best gold mines in the
western country. An assay of con-
centrates made yesterday gave re-
turn of 81 S2 az per ton, and is far
beyond the expectations of those in
terested. Among those in the deal
are John A. Heating, Joseph Cans.
Sturrock Il Brown, Major Burke,
Henry Klien, Henry Seiben, j. H..
Freezer, Sam KohIberg, Moses Nor
ris and Fred Chadbourn. These gen.
tlemen have bonded the property for
sixty days, the consideration being
$150,000. There is considerable ex-
element among those in the deal as
well as their numerous friends

JIG. Marriott, writing to the Nevada
(Cal.) Transcript, from Osceola un-
der date of March 14th, gives the fol-
lowing description of the bright pros
poets of that mining camp which lies
in the shadow of jeff Davis Peak.
In the main it verifies local reports
which bad reached this Office before
the letter was written, and which ap-
peared in the News of March 7th:
AS | look out | can see snow in
every direction, although it is all gone
around the mine. Up in the hills there
is enough in sight to insure US pretty
good run of water for this season, as
we have both bitches open to catch
the first water that comes in the
spring. Unfortunately for US, last
spring the new ditch and fiume we're
no. completed until the best of the
water supply was gone on that side
of the mountain, and the ditch being
new aud cut through very loose
ground in some places, causing it to
leak more or less, gave US but little
benefit; but now it is pretty well
soaked up and | think capable of
carrying its full capacity. We have
fumes and pipe laid and monitors in
position to work in good shape as
soon as water comes. The weather
has moderated considerably during
the past week. The ice is melting
fast, and there is quite nice little
stream of water in the old ditch which
will melt the ice out pretty quick.
There has been quite a stir here
among prospectors this winter. mostly
due through the dry wash process,
cess process. Quite number of To-
cations have been made, aud all the
machines of the camp have been OPP
Grated with very encouraging results.

mostly lime and gravel all mixed up
and very hard, resembling Portland
cement, making it slow to work, as it

machines. The prospects range from

is To count the number of shovels as

"TELL THE TRUTH"

The Fort Worth GAZETTE is now very
anxious for an extra session. 1t has found
its position upon the fence somewhat wear
ing TO that portion of its trousers which
ought to be made double, but never is.
The chief regret that we feel that the
San Antonio Express should give cur
rency to such perversion of the truth
is because it betrays the fact that the
Express has not read The GAZETTE as
closely and profitably as one might
have been led to believe, knowing the
practice of the Express to quatf deeply
at the fountain of wisdom.
THE GAZETTE never sits on the
fence when there is work to be done in
keeping weeds out OF the corn or in
cultivating the crop. 1t is always in
the lead of the foremost workers, and
among those workers, bravely holding
a good place among THE GAZETTE'S
followers, We have often been proud TO
find the Express.
When the legislature was in session
THE GAZETTE pointed out the injustice
of the apportionment of Texas into con-
gressional, senatorial and legislative
districts, and the need of redistricting
of the state. When the legislature ad-
journed, leaving that work undone,
THE GAZETTE was the first paper III
the state to advise the re-assembling of
that body to re-apportion the state. On
the 9th of April, few days after the
breaking up of the legislature, this
paper called attention to the fact that
under the existing apportionment a
great number of the voters and tax
payers of the state were unrepresented
in the legislature, and called upon the
governor to take steps to give relief,
THE GAZETTE said, among other
things:
Upon the basis of representation as

SPEAKING in eulogy of eX-President
Cleveland, Governor Russell of Massa-
chusetts exclaimed: Massachusetts
believes in sound currency. She will
not lend her aid to any movement,
whatever may be its source. and how
ever honest may be its purpose, which
in its results would debase our cur
rency Or impair values and give to
labor in depr eciated money less than
its Just dues" That is good doctrine.
We all believe in a sound currency.
The West believes in sound currency
as well as Massachusetts. and in plenty
OF it. Therefore the West, with the
South 10 assist, will demand that silver
shall be made as sound currency as
gold by the enactment of laws to put it
on an equality with gold. And the
West and the South will have some
thing to say in the running of this
country hereafter.

OF NATIONAL MOMENT.

The contest soon to be open in Ohio
Is not merely for the election Of Camp
bell or Acknowledgment to settle the
question of who shall draw official sal
aries from the state treasury. 1t IS a
trial of strength between the partisanS
of tariff for the sake OF protection,
and the supporters of a tariff for rev
enue with incidental protection. 1t IS
the national contest narrowed TO Ohio.
a state that is naturally Republican in
Il division upon the questions that have
divided parties since the war; is now to
be contested for by the partisans Of
questions of to-day. The advantage OF
prestige lies with the Republicans. We
say that Ohio is naturally Republican
because it has been carried by that
party in every presidential election
since the war. Whenever the Demo
Gratis have carried it, their success has
been owing to Republican inactivity,
and not TO an excess Of Democratic
votes. Actuated by the old lines Of
thought, there are more men in Ohio
who will vote the Republican ticket
than will vote the Democratic ticket.
But the old lines of thought are get
ting too old. The questions Of present
moment call for action. The people OF
Ohio are not now to vote in settlement
OF the question OF slavery or OF states
rights. They are to say whether they
will cling TO system that taxes the
greater part OF them to put money IN
the pockets OF the few, or adopt sys-
TEN that puts all on an equal footing as
far as law can do so. They are to say
whether the coinage OF the country
shall be limited to gold for the advan-
tage of the owners of gold, or extended
to silver. for the advantage Of all the
people. The issues are sharply defined
on national questions. This is what
has nationalized the contest. Let Me
Kinley win, and the Republican lead
ers will feel encouraged to set no

for protection, even if it reaches the
point of positive exclusion. Let Camp
bell win. and the cause OF revenue
tariff will be set forward so that moth
ing can put it back.
The ablest men of both parties will
engage in the fray. Democratic and
Republican campaign speakers from
other states will be called to Ohio, and
from about the 1st of September until
the day OF voting the whole state will
be vast audience OF listeners 10 the
merits of the contending parties. When
the vote is counted we viii know
whether the force of habit has been
able 10 keep Ohio in the Republican
party. or if the voice of reason has been
able to attach her to the cause of prog

was held on Clear Fork, ten miles south
west from Graham.
The crowd began TO assemble on the
ground on the Goth and 2lst. Ample prep
arations had been made The panther
thiclet had been cleared of underbrush and
everything was in readiness. The Jacks
boro band arrived on the 2lst and furnished
the best Of music until the encampment
broke up The crowd was variously esti-
mated at from five to ten Thousand, mem
bers of the committee placing it about eight
thousand. The best of order was main
tanned. About thirty thousand pounds of
beef and fifteen thousand pounds of rice
We're consumed.
At O'Clock Wednesday, reveille At
7:30 the people met at grand stand. Capt

read with satisfaction the glowing reports
which come from that wonderful state. 4
wheat acreage of 100000, and q yield of

5000, 600 head of cattle, 5000, OG0 sheep and
1,250, 900 horses and mules-these are not
extravagant estimates of what Texas will
yield to her farmers this year. II Is estl-
mated that the crops, the sales of livestock
and lumber will mean considerably more
than 500, coo. 600 to the state. Give these
great Western communities half chance,
and they grow like mushrooms, only more
solidly. Texas should this year furnish an
enormous traffic to her railroads, her cities
should increase and fatten on the farmers
trade. immigration on vast scale should
be attracted. All of which means better
outlook for investments in the state, and
readiness on the part of investors 10 send
more money after the earlier installments.

CHASED BY WILD HORSES.
Exciting Adventure of a Colorado Herdsr-
A Reminder of OId-Time Days
On the PIsins.
Special TO the Gazette.

ELLIS, KAN, July 26.-Frc1 Goodwin, 4
herder working at the H O p ranch in
Colorado, is here on visit and tells d re-
markable story of being chased by band
of wild horses The band has range in
the central part of Colorado which it has
been using for years. II is composed chiefly
of runaway American horses which have
assembled around nucleus of wild horses
and which has grown until IL now numbers
over one hundred members. The band is
led by magnificent bay stallion which
broke away from the COunselman ranch
about five years ago. AT that time the
leader of the band was Il beautiful white
stallion and the bay whipped him into sub
lection and took his place and has ruled the
band from that time until the present.
There have been many attempts made TO
drive the band into Enclosures but all have
tailed. owing TO the sagacity of the leader
and his ieutenants. There have been
large rewards offered for several years for
the capture of either of the the two stall
ions, but their vigilance prevents any cir
convention.
Goodwin says that he was out one day
looking up some calves On the range when
he came upon Il small bunch OF horses
They were feeding in a small depression in
the prairie and as he knew of no horses in
that neighborhood he rode toward them to
discover if possible their brands. AS he
was heard and then there came around the
knoll the rest of the herd led by the big bay
stallion. The white brought up the rear
AS the band swept into view GOodwin's
horse became almost unmanageable owing
to the constant neighing of the wild herd.
With head and tail up the leader followed
by the entire herd started in trot and
went in a circle around Goodwin, who was
urging his horse toward the home ranch.
Round and round they circed, each time
drawing closer until Goodwin drew his re-
volver and fired two shots into tho air TO
frighten the animals.
This only had temporary effect. for the
frightened animals had barely started TO
run when n shrill neigh from the big bay
called thom back into line and they began
again circling around the rider Things
began 10 look very serious aud this time
Goodwin waived his scruple about shoot
ing horse and fired ut the leader His
own horse was so mruly that his aim was
bad and instead of doing injury he simply
inflicted n slight flesh wound in the stall
lions hip. The wounded stallion gave a
scream of rage and pain and started after
Goodwin direct, but the latter's horse was
SO terrified that he easily distanced the
wounded horse, which soon gave up the
chase and returned to the herd and galloped
back TO the plains.
