The Army schools.


The recent ruling of Secretary
Proctor that enlisted men must at
tend post schools as military duty
and that Congress IN the establish
ment of the same contemplated such
attendance will have an important eff
feet in materially increasing the num-
bsr of those instructed. From the
accounts repeatedly received from the
military post bordering on this city
the school has been upon a satisfac-
tory basis. The accommodations are
ample and the teacher detail from
the ranks. The institutions in other
camps have not been upon so salts
factory footing. AT some posts,
owing to special interest taken in
them, they have succeeded very well,
but in general the reports year after

THE NEW BLACK JACK MILL
Silver City Avalanche.

The finishing strokes have just been
put on the new Black Jack mill and
that structure now stands the most
complete and best equipped mill in
the camp, although not as large as it
had been reported the company would
build. The mill is supplied with all
the latest labor saving devices, the
ore not having to be handled from,
the time it leaves the crusher. it be-
ing complete gravity mill. The ore
Is dumped on platform about fifty
feet above the settler floor, from
whence it is dropped through griz-
zleys to an ore bin holding about 125
tons. The coarser rock which runs
over the grizzleys is run through a
crusher and dropped into the same
bin. From the bin it is run in chutes
to automatic battery feeders, and the
pulp from the batteries runs into an
incline tank from which 1t is drawn
by troughs into the amalgamating
pans and thence to the settlers. The
quicksilver is carried back to the pans
by an elevator. All of the above is
of course done in other modern bull,
mills, but in this one all of the ar.
rangements to work with the least
labor are most complete, and every
thing is most compact and convenient
The battery contains ten $50 pound
stamps; there are six one-ton pan.
and four settlers. The rows of pan.
and settlers are each set on separate
heavy frames so that the shaftirg anc
pulleys beneath are easily reached
The pulleys driving the pans and set
tiers are worked by friction clutche
so that any one of them may b,
stopped in an instant without stop
ping any other machinery. In fac
this independent system is so com
plete that any part of the mill can b.
stopped at pleasure while the balanc
is running. The machinery is driver
by Corliss engine, fourteen inc
cylinder with forty-two inch stroke
supplied with steam by sixty-fu
FIVE by fourteen foot boiler. All 0
the machinery is handsomely finished
aud the engine room with its equip
ments is claimed by all who hav
seen it to be the finest and most cor
venient one in the State.

There are eight men in the Ssnato
OF Idaho we should very much like to
meet Not because there is anything
gracious or admirable about them
out because they are the only speci-
mems OF ;yrannical aristocracy in the
state that we know anything about
or have heard of. We should like
TO examine genuine niggar driver
as a matter of pure curiosity. We
mad imagined that the species was ex.
tlnct' but there appears yet to be a
few specimens in existence.
"A bill was passed in the house
making eight hours a DAYS work on
public works. The idea of such a
law was, no doubt, that ultimately
the example set by the State would
be generally followed and the eight
hour rule would become general.
The enactment Of such a law would
have been both wise and humane and
we should think that no statesman
would ever object to 1t. But it ap-
pears that in the Idaho senate there
are statesmen of peculiar mould

greatest statesman was he who could
lash the greatest amount of work ou,

men in the Idaho senate who have
lived beyond their time. They should
have died when the emancipation
proclamation was issued. We do no
know what part of Idaho they repre-
sent. We can not imagine wha
character OF constituency they MAJ
have. But may the Lord have Dit,

at the same time may just and mer
ciful God mete out such ample ant
adequate punishment to those eigh

as may satisfy the outraged senses O

A correspondent sends us clip
ping from the New York Tribune
telling what free coinage is and ask
ing if this is so. All the statements
of purported facts are true; that is
free coinage means that any holder
Of bullion 900 fine can take his bull
lion to the mint and have it coined
without cost. In stating it, the Trib-
une SAYS: "No royalty or seignior-
age to pay, no cost of minting, but a
benevolent Government bears all ex-
penses, in order that every comer
from near and far, American, Euro
pean, Asiatic, may take away bright
new United States dollars at the rate
of one for every 37l4 grains of pure
silver" As a statement of fact that
is correct, but the tone OF 1t is alto
pether dirty. The writer would con
vey the idea that mighty in!ustlc'
would be performed if that state o
affairs existed, still, if he has golf
dust or some friend of his from Soutt
America or Asia had gold dust tina
he desired to have converted int'

is in conformity with an injunction
to be found, if we remember correct

this: "Look not thou upon the flesh
of any cloven hoofed or clawed ami
NAL (for forty days and nights before

THE twenty eight Legislators who

The twenty eight Legislators who
voted for Clagett made afidavits,
separately, as to their several reasons
for pushing aside the almost unani-
nous will of the people as reflected
and expressed by the press of Idaho,
and going through the farce of elect
ing man whom the people did not
want. The Statesman is in possession
OF those affidavits and will publish
all. Two or three of the Legislators
solemnly swear that the election of
the first three Senators was received
coldly by the people of Idaho, which
everybody knows is a 'no such a
thing of the first magnitude. II
these Legislators had made affidavit
to the effect that "the election of Mr
Clagett was not coldly received" they
would have told the truth, and by
adding, "but with hot Indignation and
singing language" they would have
told the whole truth.
