SMELLING PLANT FOR BONITO.

The EAGLE learns that the Old Point
Comfort Mining and Smelling Co., or
ganized to operate in the Bonito district
is now an assured fact. Articles OF in
corporation state that 1.-The company is
formed for the purpose of acquiring and
working mineral deposits, placer or vein,
also coal and iron lands, to acquire mill
sites, operate mills or smelling plants
and to buy and sell products of same.
TO be incorporated under the laws of
the State of Colorado and Territory of
New Mexico, with a capital stock of
81 100000 to be divided into 10000 shares
of 500 each, non -assessable." Present
indications are that the principal Office
will be in Santa Fe.
This is an enterprise that is really an
absolute necessity and the projectors
showed their wisdom when they selected
Bonito as the place to locate their plant.
Most Of the ores on the Bonito are re-
fractory and with the advent of this
smelling plant many good prospects now
lying idle will become valuable producers
Located on the Bonito this smelter will
have the advantage of an immense fuel
and water supply and plenty Of fiuxing
material, and as the haul from White
Oaks and Jicarila districts is compara-
lively short, the refractory ores of these
districts could be treated at slight ex.
pense.
With the establishment of this smelter,
White Oaks would certainly gain an in.
crease in trade and the whole mineral
belt adjacent and tributary to 1t would
be livened up wonderfully. Every
reasonable inducemeut should be offertd d
to this splendid enterprise.

The EAGLE scribe in company with
Mr.. Frank O'Brien, the prosperous con
tractor, made flying trip to the JIG
arillas last Sunday. The Evening
Star" the recent strike in which has ex-
cited so much comment, was visited and
from observations made on the ground
the EAGLE feels justified in stating that
all the reports made of this wonderful
strike by the owners, are fully sustained.
The width of the vein has been definitely
aseertained to be sixty-tive feet and from
one assay made from average rock it IS
safe to predict that the whole body will
run at least $40 r ton. Mr.. Bell, who
was in charge Of the mine, stated that
they we're satisfied with what prospecting
they had already done and that on the
return OF Mr.. Galbreath from Roswell,
they would probably commence active
operations. Their first step will be to
develop a water supply and the EAGLE
trusts they may be as successful there as
WAS the Old Abe Co in White Oaks.

While in this city Mr.. Burke be-
came interested in one of the best
mine properties in Alturas county,
which will at once be developed for
all it is worth. The investment is
not very heavy for q man of Mr..
Burke's means; but it is q starter,

lengthy extract. 1t will DO seen that
these gentlemen entertain precisely
the same views Of the political situa.
ton that the TIMES has advanced Tor
months.
Here il the extract:
No Republican in Idaho should
waves. All citizens Of tho State who
have the best interests Of Idaho at
heart, after having carefully weighed
the principles and measures of the
great national parties will cast their
ballots in favor Of Republican suprem-
aoy. While the Republicans Of our
State preferred that the great states
man, James g. Blaine, should be our
leader, and their delegates to the
national convention carried out their
wishes by 90 voting, every Republican
in Idaho should support Benjsmin
Harrison with enthusiasm. It was un-
der bis administration that Statehood
was given u. Under him our lead
silver ores were protected; while yet
= territory, he gave Us homo rule and
appointed citizens Of our own State a.
our local officers. The contrast DO.
tween bis administration and that of
his predecessor in the management of
our land matters, ia too marked and
recent to be without great effect.
While the Democratic party would
give W free wool and free lead and
would stop the surveys of our lands,
the Republican party is our firm, 40.
tive aud effective friend, not only in
these, but in all other matters affect.
ing our material interests.
In the light of events % they have
transpired in this Congress, there is
no sound reason why citizens of Idaho
should wish to hazard Democratic SUI
premacy.
Our State and our delegation in
congress are no less advocates of free
coinage than heretofore. President
Harrison has shown himself better
friend of silver than the Democratic
party in congress or than Mr.. Clevs.
land. Elected und.-r pledges to pass
free silver bill, and with $50 major
ity in the house, the Democrats failed
to make their promise good, while Mr.,
Cleveland demands that even the pur.
chase of silver under the present Law
shall cease. There is more hope oil
justice being done silver under Re-
publican administration than unde,
the Democratic. The cost to US oil
putting the Democracy in power
would be the stoppage of the surveys
OF our lands and tho repeal Of the
tariff on lead and wool, without &C.
complishing anything for silver. We
cannot pay the price for the expert.
ment.
Extend our kindest regards to all
assembled Republicans and assure
them that we will be with them in the
contest.
