No Compromise.


Senator Stewart says he is unalterablv
opposed to any compromise on The sil-
yer qnes'ion. "Them is our sentiments
too.n We look at the whole business
in this way. Assuming he silver ques-
ton to be one of principle, which we
believe it is, and assuming that the free
and unlimited coinage of silver is right,
hich we also believe, we can not see
any legitimate show for compromise.
Aud because, in matters of principle,
compromise is only another name for
venali'y or treachery. 1t is sometimes
expedient to compromise with an
enemy but it is downright wick edness
to compromise with friends. We speak
on principle. In compromising with an
enemy We yield something for the sake
of gaining an advantage. 1t would b.
treacherous to treat friend that way.
Republicans might be justified in com
promising the silver question with
Democrats, hut when Republicans COM
promise with each other they simply
sacrifice integrity and contribute to
their own destruction. Free CO. mage ls
either absolutely right or absolutely
wrong. That has been demon strated.
Compromise legislation has given no
relief to silver men and anything short
of full and complete recognition of
silver as royal metal is short of every
thing demanded. So long as compro-
mise exisis, silver will be treated as
commodity and so long as that debase-
ment lasts, it wi; be at discount COM
pared with gold. And furthermore. i'll
silver is not entitled to recognition at
all, the government has no more right
to put its stamp on piece of silver and
call it money, than to put that stamp
npon potatoes or turnips or carrots and
call them legal tender. If silver be a
commodity, by what right, morally,
does government presume to provide an
artificial market for the product OF the
silver miner and deny that advantage
Ia the iron and conl miner, the farmer
and stock raiser? This compromise busi-
ness is unfair, illogical and ruinous.
Silver is either money or commodity; it
can not consistently be both. Put it on
a par with gold or relegate it to the con-
dition of pig iron. There is no half
way station.-Idaho Enterprise.

MINING NUGGETS.

Cow Creek District is now open, the
snow being off, and prospectors again at
work. There will certainly be some
big mines developed in that district,
but, as have often remarked, it is not
poor mans district The country is
rather fiat, and, even though rich float
can be picked up on the surface by the
ton, it will cost money to find and de-
fine the veins. There is chance for
men with capital to make big clean
up over there.

Mpssrs. George Stoddard and w. H.
Mackey went from Silver City to Cripple
Greek, Colorado, a few weeks ago and
recently reported that they made over
FIVE thousand dollars by the sale of, a
hole in the ground, as they call it,.
Stoddard, who is an excellent judge of
mining properties, says that if he could
transplant a few claims from War
Eagle noun ain which attract no atten-
tion here, to that camp, while the craze
is on, he could make million out of
them. Everything goes there. or at
any point in Colorado now. while hetier
prospects here are not attracting the
attention they merit. This reminds ma
of remark made by well known
mining man concerning South Mountain
that if new camp were opened in
Colorado which made just half as good
a showing as South Mountain, there
would be five Thousand people in il in
three months. The same is true of Cow
Greek district. Snch a showing any
" here in Colorado would causs a rush
of people TO the spot. Our turn will
come. We have something to bank on
in the way of good mines and they will
find market.

The d-Bug Press.

| Demonstration has heen brought
about by the corrupt use of gold and the
same methods are in vogue now in every
detail of the gold. bng conspiracy. 1t
has given the money power a subsidized
press of potent influence in he east, and
the same power has lost no opportunity
to secure a similar subsidized influence
| in the west.
This fact is especially worth noting
by every friend of silver in The silver
producing section. 1t is notorious that
there are a few papers in Colorado
which are invidions enemies of an in
dnstry vital to the state-vtry few,
| thanks to the pervading spirit of state
| loyalty with which our people, includ-
| ing the owners of our papers, are i'm
bnpd. The motives for taking an aiti-
tude SO hostile to the pnblic veal sbonld
be apparent. The paper that would be-
tray snch interests for a mercenarv con-
sidrration is lrspicable beyond express
sion, and should get a taste of popular
res, ntmeDt.
A Colorado newspaper that, under ex-
isting circumstances, will subordinate
the cause of silver for any other cOnsid-
Grafton is justly an object Of suspicion,
and may safely be clsssed as recruit of
the enemy. 1t is a Prime dniy with
every trne friend Of the white metal to
withhold his support, and Influence
others to withhold their support from
all papers of hp class here referred 20.
There is too mnch involved in the fight
for silver 10 Justify giving a shred Of
countenance to treachery. = Denver
News.
The above applies equally as we'll to
Idaho. There are in this state to-day
too many papers of the say-anG do
nothing stripe; they are ready to ap-
plaud the noble fight being made by the
staunch friends of silver in congress,
but when they are expected to come out
squarely and back mp the silver club
movement and show our friends in
congress and elsew here that the people
are in sympathy and are aiding the
cause, they say it is "unwise, impoItIc," !"
etc. What if silver men in congress
had talked like that? What if Stewart,
Bland, Teller and Woicott bad been of
the sy-and-do-nothing stripe? They
have de6ed and fought the gold bug
element in both parties, and been APP
planded for il by their constituents and
siver's friends everywhere. Are peo-
pie to quietly fold their hands and
"hnshp the silver matter up and do
nothing? Are they to encourage the
free coinage men, or lay their throats
bare fo! The greedy and grasping hands of
the insurers, money-cbangers and specu-
lators in human toll? We have stannch
friends leading the fight, and let us
stay with them for victory or defeat.
They deserve our warmest support and
confidence; they are fighting for us; let
us encourage them by words and acts;
let us stay with them until something
gives away; let them not say that we
are Indifferent and lack zeal.-Hailey

An expert from the NUGGET Office
yesterday visited the CT u auqua mine
and examined the immense ledge re-
Gently cut on that property. He found
that the tunnel is now in 130 feet of
ledge with no hanging wall yet in
sight. This big ledge is largely formed
of low grade ore but has streaks in it
from six inches to ten feet wide which
run from twenty to forty dollars in pay,
the larger percentage Of which is in
gold. The tunnel which is now in 1000
feet, is perfectly straight. 1t is now
some distance past the summit of the
mountain, and within 500 feet of day
light on the opposite side. It will be-
continued through, as the Beck ledge,
one of the best surface showings on the
mountain, is only about 100 feet from
the present face. In The opinion of the
NUGGET expert, sufficient depth is not
acquired by this tunnel TO properly
prove the value ofthis promising prop
erty.
