The outlook on the rivers at last ac-
counts was decidedly gloomy. The
Mississippi floods had just begun to re-
cede when the late heavy rains and
cloudbursts set all the tributaries of the
big river booming, and it seems proba-
bile that another rise, exceeding that al
ready experienced, will sweep through
the Mississippi valley, which may be
reinforced by the regular June rise
caused by the melting SHOWS from the
mountains of the northwest.

The noblest daring recorded in verse
or drama, in battle or mythology, does
not surpass that shown in incidents
recorded during the late flood in Iowa.
Men did not hesitate to take the chances
OF losing their own lives for the saving
OF others, and a number went down in
the deadly flood from whose peril they
vanly sought to rescue women and
children. 1t is such men. obscure, un-
celebrated, that prove when the unex-
pected moment comes that there is in
them the mettle of heroes.

bananas and that the banana planta-

twenty-five years without breaking up

A TRULY WONDERFUL FIND.
notwithstanding Ore"-What the
Next Development will Probably Be-.

misunderstanding Ore'-What the
Next Development will Probably Be-.
The Silver Messenger is great
authority in mining matters. This
is so we'll known that when we state,
on the authority Of the Clayton paper,
that mammoth ledge OF free gold
ore which, to use the Clayton papers
own words, is tits own amalgamator,"
no one will dispute the assertion. No,
no one. Because it would be futile
to do so. This really wonderful find,
our erudite contemporary informs us,
is only six or seven miles below Clay
ton, and on both sides of the river.
The gold bearing rock seems to be
that Of porphyry," he states. He isnot
quite certain that porphyry is the
matrix; hence he guardedly says that
i. seems to be. The ledge or lode is
"3S feet in width, and how far it ex
tends up in the mountains can only
be surmised, for far up on the sides of
the distant mountain sides this same
character Of rock can be plainly seen
cropping out" Probably it extends
to the North Pole. Dii not Sir John
Franklin's diary. as well as those OF
Kane, peLong and other Arctic ex
plorers, all mention something about
porphyry? And if gold is found in
porphyry near Challis why can it not
be found in porphyry elsewhere?
Silver is found in sandstone at Silver
Reef, Utah, in quartzite in Eureka
Nevada; and on the great Comstock
lode the occurrence Of porphyry is
not unusual--in fact the country
roundabout which is not composed
Of syenitic granite, volcanic dyke and
trachyte, is generally made up of
porphyry.
But this is depression. To revert
to the statement, which we originally
began to consider: Our learned con.
temporary, in order not to he misun-
derst,od, repeats himself, thus: "The
ore in question contains sufficient OF
nearly enough mercury to amalga-
mate the gold, which is quite
novelty" Quite novelty? We
should say that it is! Heretofore it
has been necessary, TO procure this
indispensable agent in the process OF
amalg amation, to find cinnabar mines
the ore from which would be reduced
in furnaces and made to yield its
precious contents which then became
known as mercury or quicksilver.
But our Clayton friends have gold
ore in porphyry which contains, not
the dark, reddish brown cinnabar, but
the bright, dazzingly white and
steely looking quicksilver.
They are therefore fortunate much
above the common run of mankind
And-one surprise seldom coming
sing we are prepared to learn from
our adjacent upper country that, by
sinking a few feet upon their por-
phyry, ledge, their picks suddenly
stuck into what proved to be solid
bars OF the real struck" the "pure
stuff" the latrn, heat having filtered
through the assure or lode from the
center of the earth, smelted the Gin
nabar, and caused the amalgamalion Of
the gold in the vein by the mercury
thus released.

The Young Men Crv for Lewis.

TACOMA, April so. Especial james
Hamilton Lewis, of Seattle, was in the
city today. He says he is here on private
law business, and announces that he is
not making an active canvass for the
Democratic nomination for governor.
However, Mr.. Lewis possesses for exhibi-
ton to few influential personages letters
from the four corners of the state urging
him to become an active candidate for
governor, and pledging him hearty sup
port. The effect of the judicious uss
which is being made of these hattering
testimonials, 1t is believed by the young
Democratic blood of Tacoma, will result
in the nomination of Mr.. Lewis, in spite
of the bitter opposition of the Seattle
Democratic organ.
