A meeting Of the Fourth of Julv
committee was held at Metropolitan
Hall last Monday night and an ac-
count taken of its work up to that
date. The finance committee re-
ported 1866 subscribed. A letter
to Depot Agent F. T. Collins, from
railroad officials, refusing to grant
the use of train for the Fourth,
was read and Mr.. Collins was au-
thorized to further confer with the
company concerning railroad &C.
commodations for the celebration.
The letter revealed the fact, how
ever, that the company is willing to
deal literally with the public in the
matter of fares for the Fourth, and
there is no doubt but arrangements
will be made which will prove per-
fectly satisfactory to the public and
managers of the celebration. A
resolution was passed authorizing
the insertion of reading advertise
ments in the Shoshone Journal,
Bellevue Herald, Weekly News
Miner and Weekly Times, inviting
the public of those places and their
surrounding neighborhoods to join
us in our great national thanksgiv-
ing festival to be held at Ketchum
on July 4th next, to titly commem-
morate the greatest event in the
history of North America-the pro-
mitigation of the Declaration of
Independence. From that day date
our separation from and independ-
ence of the obsolete forms and dy-
nasties of Europe and the liberty
of which we are so justly proud,
and which we should each and all
labor to uphold and perpetuate,
pure as we received it, but enlarged
by the greater enlightenment of
years, and not narrowed and de-
formed for partisan vindication or
success. The success so far attend
ing the labors of the committees
has exceeded the expectations of
the most sanguine Of our citizens,
and we have but to stand together
as we have begun, to make the eel
ebration the most attractive and
interesting ever witnessed on Wood
River. Another meeting will be
held next Monday night, when a
programme will be authorized and
issued, and every citizen of the
town should be present to make
such suggestions as he may think
pertinent to the completion of a
perfect outline of the order of ex-
ercises to be pursued on that day.
There should be no tagging of in
terest in this matter, but all should
work, and every one should do his
utmost to show to the country that
when Ketchum undertakes to do a
thing it will be done and done WELL

The following news from Yankee
Fork is interesting and reliable,
coming from q miner of that sec
ton and Seafoam:
The old Yankee Fork district
{ Bonanza and CUSTER, is brighten
ing up a little this spring. The
Dickens-C Custer mill-3O stamps
commenced running on Dickens
ore early in May. There are eight
or ten men in the slopes. The ore
is of good grade. This is the first
run on Dickens ore since the mine
came into possession of the Lon
don company. The general mana
ger, Col. AFFORD, is offering really
fair milling rates for Custer ores,
and that class of ores will be milled
in the camp. Several of the COM
pany's mines were worked on lease
last season. The Washington COM
pany's mill is also prepared to
work custom rock on easy terms.
The Daniel O'Connell mine, on
Dickens Hill, is sending ore to the
Custer mill for reduction. This
mine is sufficiently developed to
produce much ore for long time
to come, and of very good grade.
The ore samples from SIS to $500
per ton-about half of which is
gold. The Yankee Fork mine on
Mt. Estes, six miles from Bonanza,
has about 100 tons of milling ore
on the dump, taken from tunnel
run on the vein. The vein is three
to six feet in width, with a consid-
cradle quantity of ore that runs
from $1OO to $500 per ton. More
than the usual amount of develop
ment work on the various mines
and prospects is being done, and
the season promises to be the best
for some years past.
George Warren of HALEY was in
town Saturday last, and paid brief
visit to the KEYSTONE office. Mr..
Warren speaks quite flattering of
the seasons outlook at Haley.
There are more men employed in
her mines than at any previous time
since 1886, and all are making
some money. The Red Cloud mine,
E. B. True, superintendent, is work
ing about SO men. The Red FL
ephant, worked by Colonel Bryan,
ant, is employing 40 men, and like
the Red Cloud and Buttercup is
shipping large amounts of ore. The
Buttercup has about Is men in its
The Idaho Democrat,
owned by ]. O. Swift, employs ten
men, but will put on more soon.
Porter Brothers mine is putting up
machinery to 60 to work, and will
employ help on their mine when
this work is completed. A contract
has been let to run 200 feet of tun-
mel on the Ma Aug. which work is
now being prosecuted. On Deer
creek and at Bellevue the miners
generally are employing men; at
the latter place about $50 men are
and all are taking out
and shipping or preparing to ship
ore. The shipments of the Red
Cloud mine alone reach the hand
some figure of Is tons a day, from
which the inference would seem
fair that the entire shipments Of
the camp are not less than 300 to
$50 tons g week, an amount which
may reasonably be expected to in
crease as the season advances.

II, instead of confniDg their
speeches to tiresome harangues on the
tariff, and INDUCING purely partisan at
tacks upon the late Congress, Mr..
German and the other candidates on
the State Democratic ticket, had dis
cussed the effect of the six amend
ments to the State Constitution, now
pending before the people, and had
opened the discussion of State issues,
they would have done something really
worthy of their leadership, and shown
the people of Maryland that they were
not afraid to face the political situation
in the State.
As 1t is, they have shown their moral
cowardice in Sinking the real issues
before the people, by attempting to
side track them, for the Presidential
questions of 90. They dare not face
the record of their party administration
In the State.

The Cecil Whig. [volume] (Elkton, Md.) 1841-current, 1891-10-17

If somebody doesn't put 4 half
bushel or SO of ice to Captain Green
bury's head he may die Of apopleXy.
Two weeks ago the WING stated on
the authority OF a prominent Demo
crat, that the captain had said 'if that
agreement is genuine it OugM 10 de-
feat Graham and CrOheyS; where
upon. the captain published a long
letter in last weeks Democrat, in
which, while he does not deny having
| made the statement. ne labors terribly
to break the force OF it, expressing at
the same time his utter contempt for
the gentleman who had been guilty Of
the awful ofense of repeating the
opinion which the captain privately en-
tertains of that bargain.
There is a reason however behind
the warlike captains column long ex-
PLANTATION.
He wants to be secretary Of the
State Senate again and the young
bosses have given him ord-rs to ex-
plain away that damaging admission of
his or lose his scalp; and as the ex-
pectant captain doesn't feel altogether
at home yet among the young bosses
| having in the last Democratic primary
contest deserted his old and faithful
friends, as a matter In his own language
of "cold b0lihcS'-he feels he must do
as he is bid.
As the Saint co has ordered it, he
must play sinner.
And SO he fairly boils ever with
simulated indignation.
He has lashed himself to the highest
pitch of fury.
He has grown red in the face and
alarmingly apoplectic in appearance,
and there is apparently great danger of
total collapse.
Unable to find words enough in
Worcester or Webster to express his
feelings. he resorts to the fish market
dialect, and deluges the community
with fearful food of Blllingsgate as
will be seen, from a few choice phrases
culled at random from his long
diatribe; "moral leprosy," 'political
rottenness," political free booters,"
"basest motives" "mallce, jealousy,
revenge, treachery, faIsehood )" "pcliti-
cal trickery," "corruption," "party de-
basement" "disgraceful, scandalous,"
''unblushing," polluted" "politlcal
monstrositv, "slimy," "revolting,"
"spawn of treachery," shameful,
braz-n, and insolvent political infamies."
Isn't that awful1
And all because the captain didn't
hold his tongue at the night time.
If the ducking stool we're still IN use,
the unhappy warrior might be in
danger OF getting two or three dips as
common scold.
But he has had his orders and is to
be pitied perhaps, rather than censured.
He means well enough,-but then
you know, the Legislature is shortly to
meet, and meat is what the captain is
after.

THE Cecil Democrat is basing its
claim for MIR. Graham's election as
Clerk of the Circuit Court upon the
ground of his superior education
and training" and when it is not
r-ore agreeably engaged in dilating
upon the agreeable manners of Mr..
lamar towards those who have
estates to settle, it grows especially
eloquent in dissenting upon the
especial fitness of Mr.. Graham for
this position.
Now without showing the bad
taste OF attempting to institute any
merely personal comparison between
the two candidates now before the
people for that important place, we
have just this to say, that in point
of character, intelligence, integrity
and qualification Mr.. VIM. J. Smith
is fully Mr.. Graham's peer, and in
point of individual popularity and,
personal acceptability he is far MIR
Grahams superior We assert
without fear OF successful contradic-
ton, that few men if indeed any man,
of his age in Cecil county, can COM
mand a larger personal following
than Mr.. Smith, and that too based,
not upon his ability to secure the
favor OF men by placing them under
business and individual obligations
to him, but upon their recognition
of his possession OF those generous
qualities of head and heart, which
attach their possessors to their tel
low men. Nor, while he is unusually
popular personally, is he a man of
merely negative qualities, but pos
sesses force of character, and high
order of intellectual ability.
He may not e a collegian, but
with strong native intellect he has
been educated in that best OF schools,
contact with the world, and in
the knowledge of the ways and
habits of men by personal association
with them.
Mr.. Smith wasn't born rich, he
has had no influential family or ex-
tensive connection behind him to
push him into political prominence
and public favor, he is it is true only
a mechanic, doing in past years his
full days work like the rest who earn
their daily bread by the sweat OF
their brows, but he has shown the
qualities OF his manhood, and al
though an humble mechanic, las by
force of pluck, brains, and industry,
forged to the front where he has a
mans right to be.
His fellow county men have be-
fore this shown him the evidence of
their favor, and as a Republican,
have elected him to the sheriffality
in Democratic Cecil
Who will deny that in that impor-
tant position. he proved faithful
and a capable officer?
Who has the temerity to dare to
attempt slur upon his personal in
tegrity?
Again, by the uninhuenced, fair,
open, and honest preference of the
Republicans of Cecil county he has
been selected as their standard
bearer for an important office
within the peoples Gift.
Although life long and a con-
sistent Republican, his Democratic
friends and associates, have always
in the past, and still respect him for
the sincerity and honesty of his
opinions, and will now as heretofore,
In defiance ofDemocratic newspaper
abuse, rally to his support
He is fully worthy of their votes,
and we expect to see him triumph
andy elected, to the clerkship of the
Circuit Court for Cecil county.
