same and other parties, on which work
was done this year. On Indian
creek the Whale mine, owned by
Adams, Ward and others, shows
large body of ore and tunnel now in
so feet on which work is being done.
There never has been more work done
than this year and the mines are all
looking well and capitalists desiring
property that will pay good dividends
could not find better mines than those
offered here at the present time at
very low figures. What we want
first is good roads, and if Washington
county wants to lower the tax rate,
vote for men for commissioners who
will look to the needs of those who
pay taxes, for good roads brings
capital, which gives employment to a

the product of our ranches and makes

SEVEN DEVILS.
A Writer in the Commonwealth Journal
Says they Are Immense.

bdyb Gn6y Arc 1Hluiolros
The writer was recently at the
Seven Devils mining region and
though he saw no smelters glow ng,
nor stamps booming, it was evident
it was not for want Of ore, for evf-
dence of immense quantities are at
hand Banks Of rich copper ore are
exposed all over the two acres of un-
covered ledge on the Peacock, which
| is the best known claim in that Sec
ton. On this ledge shaft has been
sunk about seventy feet through rich
ore which improves constantly with
depth.
1t is this claim, with several others,
that is owned by Montana parties who
are doing nothing on the property at
present, and probably will not until a
railroad runs closer to it. This prop
erty, though valued at millions, may
not prove to be the most valuable
mines of that region.
The South Peacock improves with
development. Col. Drake, the super
intendenS, and his wife, seem to be
happy in their high, pleasant noun.
tain home This company is also
waiting for something to give the
: camp a start on the active life it is
, sure to sometime have. Andrew
q Adams, with his 'eWhale' and other
g big prospects, is just as happy I'D

n are almost sure that all the rich pros
q poets about them slid from their
d lodges, which show up finely through
e the development work down on the

THE RALLY OF THE POPULETS
They Hold a Big Convention
in Middle Valley.
A Banquet Beneath the
Bushes.

The peoples party of Washington
county held rousing convention at
Middle valley last Saturday, putting
out full ticket, with the exception
of coroner, and arousing much
enthusiasm among the followers of
the faith. Al Morrison, of Council,
explained that coroner should be left
blank until it was seen which OF the
two old parties was the most demor-
allied by the election, and then he
could be chosen from that party and
allowed the pleasure of burying it.
The populists express full confidence
that their ticket will win. When the
reporter arrived at the grove just
above the Middle valley bridge, where
the convention was held, it was
nearly noon and Harvey Anderson,
who was chairman of the convention,
was just finishing an able address tc
the delegates. He closed his remarks
by saying that he hoped none of the
5 delegates had came there "witl
friends to reward or enemies tc
1 punish, I" which is a good enough
motto for any convention to adopt
1t was then moved that the convention
adjourn for dinner and its unanimou
e adoption showed that there was

WILL LYNCH DEAD.

Mr.. Charles Lynch of this city yesterday
evening received the sad aud startling in
telligence, through a telegram, announc
ing the death of Will Lynch in Virginia.
The telegram was very brief and did not
give any further particulars as to the
manner of his death, but stated that he died
yesterday. 1t was a great shock to the
family, all OF whom reside here, as we'll as
the many friends of the unfortunate young
man. VIII Lynch was 81 years old and
left Wichita about two years ago to accept
a good position with a railroad company.
He was raised here and every
one who knew him esteemed him
He was great fovorite in
society and always was leader among
his associates. The probability is that he
was killed. Yesterday morning his brother
Charlie received long letter from him, in
which he said that he was enjoying the
best OF health and doing splendidly. Every
week it was his business TO go to Cincin-
natl to get money to pay the men on the
works. To go aud come from Cincinnati
necessitated ride over the mountains,
and it is thought not at all improbable
that he was killed by robbers.

AN IMPORTANT DISCOVERY.

Yesterday Stanley & Hume filed very
important suit in the district court, and
one which will be watched with some in
terest. 1t is suit to cancel mortgage
on file in the register of deeds on quarter
section Of land in this county. owned by
one II. Augspurger of Hamilton, o. The
ground OF the suit is that Mr.. Augspurger
claims that the mortgage is a forgery.
The mortgage WAS flied in this county
Nov. s. 1890. and purported to be signed by
Mr.. Augspurger i'll Michigan for $l,400
loaned him by one W. r. Beatty. Mr..
Augspurger was never in Michigan in his
life which he will prove, never borrowed
any money on the land, does not know w.
r. Beatty and did not know of the exist
euce of a mortgage till the foreclosure suit
mad been brought.
The probability Is that there is an or
ganized band of mort gage forgers in exist
ence and that this is the result of their
work. The matter will be thoroughly in
yeStigated.
