The Star, OF Grand Junction, Colorado,

are glad to see, and, like the Journal,
believes that party lines should be drop

tized. The following from the Star Ok.
presses our sentiments and should coin
eide with the views Of the people Of the
West: From now out to the end Of the
chspterCo colorado ought to call every State
officer out on the subject Of silver. No
Democrat should receive the support Of
the party if it is known that he waivers
the least on this subject. No Republican
should receive the votes Of pro.silver Re.
publiosns unless it is known that he is
safe for silver. In the next National
campaign the lines should be drawn
closely. The Star will support no man
for President whose record is doubtful
or who does not declare himself clearly
on this subject. Mr.. Cleveland will find
it necessary to reverse on silver ere the
great Weat and the South will support
him for the nomination. He is unobjec-
tionable in every other respect, Snd his
silence with his quasi assent to Hill's
late silver sentiments, give promise Of .
change Of heart"

There has been much rejoicing over
the admission Of the American hog into
Italy and also much lying. II is called
by Republicans a great diplomatic tri.
umph achieved by Minister Porter, who
is thoroughly imbued with the r~eciproc-
ity idea. The truth Of the matter is that
ever since the passage by Congress Of the
meat inspection act the italian Chamber
Of Commerce OF New York City has been
at work trying to convince Italy OF the
wisdom of removing the restriction it
had placed upon the importation Of
American pork. The efforts were sue
cessful and NJ. L. Contencin, President
Of the Chamber Of Commerce, was the
first man to inform the President that
the restriction had been removed.

GREAT MIN BELT.

]. Nj. Howell, writing to the Salt Lake
Journal, says: | am here at the Gregory
ranch, eleven miles eaat of 0sceola, Ne.
vada. l have taken pains to examine
what is called the JEFF Davis range Of
mountains. They reach south from Os-
ceola District about forty miles, and north
about forty miles. This would make a
distance of eighty miles in length by ff-
teen in width. Where | have examined
this range from base to summit l find
true assure and contacts in lime, carry

eastern Nevada were only favored with
railroad facilities. fabulous wealth could
be dug from these hills, and in my judg-

investment than here. Aspen and Lead.
vile prospectors could find no better
country to look for the precious metals

The most practical route for those wish.

BLAINE OUT.

Now Bob Ingersoll is out with the dec
l~aration that Blaine is not "in it" The
sacreligious individual wal in Chicago
the other day, when he was tackled by a
newspaper reporter as q matter OF course.
II would be q negligent gatherer OF news
who failed to strike Pope Bob as soon as
the latter struck town, and TO quiz the
gentleman as to what he might have that
was fresh and new in the fields Of poll
tics and religion. On the occasion re-
.fsrred to the newspaper man went
straight to the point and asked the glib
tongued apostle of Mephistopheles and
radical Republicanism if in 1892 he were
going to perform for the "Plumed
Knight" services similar to that per.
formed for him in 1884. "No," said In.
gersoll, 81 won't place Blaine in nomin-
alton for the Presidency at the next Re-
publican Convention. / won't nominate
Blaine" he continued, "because Blaine
won't be . candidate. He does not want
the nomination"
This latter statement was interesting
to the reporter, who thought now be was
going to get confirmation of certain vague
and indefinite rumors which had been
repeated and denied all Summer long.
"How do you know, Colonel :" inquired
the man Of fabers. "Why, he has said
So" "To whom :" This was a puzzler.
and for once in his life he realized that
he had said too much or not enough. He
hesitated. flushed. and finally replied;
"Ob, / don't know; but he does not
want it,"
No amount Of persuasion could induce
Bob to talk more on the subject. and on
what he said as here quoted the friends
OF Ben Harrison are insisting that Mr..
Blaine is permanently out Of the race.

Mrs. Ingersoll, a dress reform apostle
Of Boston, has appeared on the streets in
what she calls a mudless gown. She cre-
ated a sensation as she quietly paraded
the muddy streets. Her costume is de-
scribed as consisting of a skirt thirty in
ches in length, eleven inches shorter than
would be necessary for her to agitate the
mud or dust. The material is Of repel-
liant waterproof. light of weight, dark
green in color with tan braid, worn with
Turkish trousers, top boots and a hat
and cloak to match. Mrs. Ingersoll's
style may not be adopted by the sex,
but a woman who is brave enough to tuck
her breaches in her boots on q muddy
day needs not the plaudits Of gentle
creatures who prefer to wear thin CATERS
and draggled skirts.

low GRADE oRE.

The statement recently published in
the Deadwood Pioneer by the Homestake
and Deadwood. Terra mining companies
have opened the eyes Of mining men.
They show that for the past year the
Homestake ore has only ran 50 60 a ton,
while the Desdwood.f Terra goes 81 40,
yet the former has paid ten cent divi'
dends every month and has q surplus oil
$40, 900, while the latter has piled up q
surplus OF $500, 900 and is paying five
cent dividends every month. The sue
cess Of these mines in making low grade
ore pay has stimulated Others, and q
movement is now on foot, backed by the
leading men Of the Black Hills, to erect
an immense custom mill at some point
that is reached by railroad connections,
and can furnish sufficient water power to
run the mill. At present Belle Fourche
is the point that offers the most favor
able opportunities, having a large water
pOWtE duu OciuB SOuuCObou WIN ~
gold belt by a full railway system. There
are immense bodies Of low grade gold ores
in the vicinity Of Central, some vertical
veins and some fat cement deposits. A
most painstaking examination of these
have been made, and they were found to
average 81 90 per ton. The cost Of min.
ing, milling and transportation is estima-
ted at 81 a ton, leaving a profit of ninety
cents. The intention is to have 1000
stamps working on this ore crushing p
600 tons daily. 1t takes but little
thought to see what immense benefit
such an undertaking would be to the
country, giving employment, as it would,
to about 1000 men. A strong effort is
being made to enlist Eastern capital in the
scheme and the promoters are sanguine
of their success.

HOW LII WAS DONE.

Colorado is exasperated because the
Trans-M Mississippi Irrigation Congress re-
Gently held at Omaha took action unfay-
orably to free and unlimited coinage.
The resolution adopted would conhne
the coinage to the American product.
Hon. c. S. Thomas, Of Denver, who was
q delegate to the Congress relates his OBJ
servations to the Rocky Mountain News
as follows:
There were three reports from the
committee concerning free coinage, the
majority report being for the coinage OF
the American product, championed by
Senator Warren, Of Wyoming; a minor
ity report favoring q suspension Of silver
coinage until the fixing Of an interna-
tional ratio between il and gold, fathered
by Mr.. 8. A. Thompson, Of Duluth; and
another report demanding free and unre-
stricted coinage, signed by Colonel Blu
chsnan and Judge Robinson, Of Colorado,
and others. The contest of the owen
tion was wsged on these reports, and it
resulted as you know in the adoption OF
the majority report-a conclusion which
the silver men foresaw from the moment
the convention was called to order.
The congress was very sparsely at
tended, and those States which could be
relied on for free coinage had the least
representation. There were but four
delegates present from Colorado, two
from Louisiana, one from Arkansas, three
from Montana, one from California, two
from New Mexico, and none from Idaho,
Nevada or Arizona. On the other hand,
Wyoming, under the leadership Of Sena.
tor Warren, was on hand, having quite q
representation, whose sentiment
was strengthened by the bulk of those
attending from Nebraska, Kansas and
parts of Iowa. Missouri was with us
for the most part, with here and there a
delegate Of opposite views.
The contest for the majority resolution
an organized one My belief is that
II was sedulously insinuated outside of
the convention that the President might
an American coinage bill, as such
a Measure meant protection to the Amer
lean miner and would prevent the food
ing of the country with foreign silver.
Senator Warren, who is one Of the most
adroit tacticians in the country, was the
soul Of the movement. At heart | do
not think he is any more of a silver man
than John Sherman, and whoever reads
his argument before the Congress will, l
think, draw the same conclusion"

ruE FUTURE OF NEVADA.

The future Of Nevada depends, ssdoes
that Of every other State, upon the uses
whish man makes Of the resources placed
here by nature. The indolsns Spaniard
let California's wonderful wealth lie for
several centuries entirely unused and I'M
thought Of. No one can cast his eyes
about without seeing vast wealth waiting
for intelligent development. This Is true
Of every country on earth, and especially
30 Of Nevada. The question is whether
we are the people to take hold and make
. State here, or whether Nevada must
wait for q population with broader ideas
and more energy. The answer must
come from ourselves. A little effort will
start the ball to rolling, and once started
everything will help to keep it going.
Some plan must be adopted by which the
people can pull together, and discussion
and consideration are never thrown
away.-Territorial Enterprise.
The Enterprise is right. The people
Of Nevada have never acted in harmony
about anything. Western Nevada does
not care 3 fig, and never did, about east
ern Nevada. The western end Of the
State is more closely allied to San Fran
cisco than to it's other half in the east.
We don't see q man from western Ne
vada in this part of the State once in an
age. A few OF them come around in four
years when they wan our votes. But
we never see . western mining man out
this way. They don't seem to know
anything about our resources, nor do
they care. Macksy and Jones and the
rest would rather buy mines in Mexico
or Alaska than invest dollar in eastern
Nevada. 1t was within the power Of our
own people to have made Nevada q pros.
porous and populous State. Had one
half Of the money taken from our mines
been expended in railroads and water
bitches and other permanent improve
ments, Nevada to-day would be as well
off as any Of her neighbors. But the mill.
ions produced by her mines went to en-
rich other places. Silver legislation and
a competing railroad are the great wants
Of the State at this moment. Irrigation
will come along a little later when a re-
vivsl in mining has created home markets
for agricultural products. By acting
unitedly and unsel6shly our people can
aid materially in securing the necessary
legislation as well as hasten the building
Of another railroad. We do not make a
couesrted effort to help ourselves. We
do not so much as gather the statistics of
what a competing road would earn as IN
inducement for the work to be under
taken. What is e~verybody's business is
nobody's business. But with unanimity
Of purpose we could have funds and pay
men for this sort of public work. The
Lord helps those who help themselves.
Nevada has a good future, but il is q
long way off unless we shall change our
methods.

YOU NAY SEE A MILLION.

A concession has been granted to Nj.
Stepanni to erect q Moorish palace at the
Worlds Fair. One of the many attrae-
tions which he proposes to exhibit in this
palace is 81, 200, 900 in gold coin in n
pile. He believes that this will be a
great drawing card. and that nearly every
visitor will want to see il. OF course
great precautions will be taken for the
safety OF such great treasure. 1t will be
in . strong cage and, Mr.. Stepanni says:
"Just under the gold will be constructed
q fire and burglar proof vault. To the
doors Of this vault will be connected
electric wires. In the event OF an at
tempt to rob the palace my guards will
press an electric button. the entire pile
will fall into the vaults and the doors
will spring shut" A space 200 by $50
feet was granted for the Moorish palace.
upon which Mr.. Stepanni says he will
expend s4OO, 600.

ELECTION CONsEaUENcEs.

The elections in the East last Tuesday
produced no surprises. They went gen.
orally as people had been predicting they
would go. The most notable feature.
perhaps, Of these contests was the appa.
rent decline in the strength Of the Far
mers' Alliance. The farmers failed to cut
q very important figure anywhere. Crops
have been too good this year. 1t takes
q drought to make the northwestern
granger vote the Democratic ticket.
When crops are bad he lays the fault on
the government and votes against the
administration. A calamity always helps
the party out of power. Things have
been toe prosperous this year to do the
Democrats any good. Another signih-
can't fact is brought out by Tuesdays
voting. 1t shows that the Republican
party has fully recovered its spirit since
the great humping it received in the
Congressional elections of q year ago. 1t
is q hard party to kill, and usually comes
up smiling when least expected to do so.
Ii now indicates that il will goto the front
in next years great battle with as much
confidence as it has aver displayed at any
time in its history. On the whole, how.
ever, the Democrats got the best OF the
Fall elections, but not by q sufficient
sweep to destroy the hope of the other
party. The result leaves New York the
battle ground as before. especially for
the Democrats, and il drives that party,
we fear. to that State for its Presidential
candidate. 1t looks to us now as though
the Democratic candidate was bound to
be either Grover Cleveland, David B.
Hill or Roswell P. Flower. Either of the
latter would be more acceptable in the
West than the former. Harrison on the
Republican side, and . New York man
ct the head Of the Democratic ticket, 10
about the way the East will dish up
things for us next year. The Farmers
Alliance presents but q poor rallying
point, and so mere we are again with no
hope for silver, unless something be done
by Congress this Winter. Under these
circumstances the mining States should
begin to shape themselves to do a little
independent voting for the benefit OF sill
yer and nothing else. We can ell unite

An IMMENSE CAVERN.

The discovery has been announced OF
an enormous cavern in the Josephine
country, Oregon, about twelve miles
north of the California line and about 40
miles from the Coast. There were two
openings in the cave, which looked like
small assures in a great limestone bluff.
This limestone extends for miles and ex-
ternally appears massive and solid, but
is honeyeombed within with cracks and
crevices which extend for miles without
any apparent order or system. Many of
the passages within the cave are de-
scribed as Of great beauty, containing
semi-transparent stalactites, giant milk
white pillars, and pools and streams Of
pure clear water. Several miles from
the entrance a small lake of clear water
and a water fall of thirty feet in hight
were discovered. The only sign of any
animal life was found a short distance
from the entrance, where a few bones
indicated that bears had used it for q
lair, carrying their prey there. It was
estimated that the main body of the cave,
which is undoubtedly Of vast extent, was
800 feet from the surface of the noun
