The Caldwell Tribune gives an ao-
count of the invention OF a machine
for catching the -four gold Of Snake
river. The invention was made by
A. O. Eokelson, chief engineer OF the
Oregon Pacific railroad. Tests have
been made and eight cubic yards Of
sand yielded over SO. A thorough
test was made OF the tailings, but not
color was found. The quicksilver
process also failed to show any gold
in the tailings. The principle of the
machine consists in forcing the gold
carrying sand over silver plate and
through three separate mercury baths,
which amalgamates all the gold. The
main feature of the process lies in the
mercury bath, which being charged
with some secret compound enables it
TO amalgamate anything even greasy
iron, as shown by several trials by
Mr.. Paul. Patents for the process
have been obtained and a stock com
pany to handle the same will be or
ganizcd in Portland soon.

\ Partisan Huilanaioo.



The Statesman is raising great
hallahaioo about the failure OF regis
ssars 10 make registrations siGce last
Saturday. Now, there Is no mitiga-
tion of the otfenso cf refusing to reg
lister voter when he applies and de-
mands registration nj the proper
time and place. The miserable le-
gal technicalitv behind which, onr
registrars hide the hasencss of their
betrayal Of the trust reposed IN them
is not mitigation of their refusal to
do their duty, since the dolts who en-
acted the law clearly meant that reg
istration should be proceeded with up
10 the tenth day before the election.
Nevertheless few men will be found
il this community SO dull as not to
see that the Ssatesman's indignation
is purely partisan. Were they Re-
pnblicans instead Of Democrats the
Statesman would not even mention
the act In its news columns. This,
we san safely assert, because it must
know that registrar of Boise coun-
ty skalked away and came TO this
city to avoid registering voters, but
as hs was Republican in politics, and
probably ran away for his party's
good, we have failed to find mention
Of his oowArdly act in tho columns oi
our yirtuous contemporary. We be-
iievc the law IL such that registrar,
may use their pleasure about regis
tering voters, and we are sure oul
registrars here, as we'll as the ont
from Boise county, are taking con.
temptible advantage OF this circum
stance in the hope Of furthering tn,
interests Of their parties by the mean
ness; and we further believe our peo
pie should SEQ in this the necessity o
rlecting men TO the Legislature here
after who have the honesty and ca
paoity 10 draft laws that will meal
what they are intended to mean.

MILLEDGEvILLE, GA, Dot. "A good
deal has been said recently by the papers OF

from the congressional race in the Sixth
district, which has been without the slight
est foundation. Col. Pottle had been active
in the racs until the returns from Wednes-
days Waterloo were received. That news,
however, was "the straw that broke the
cameps back"
Col. Pottle is now out Of the race, and bis
reasons for withdrawal are given In his own
language to your correspondent tonight:
"While do not surrender my convictions
on the political stand have taken, accept
the result of the election as an overwhelm-
ing evidence of the fact that the Peoples
party is a dead issue in Georgia politics. and

TILLMAN FOR PRESIDENT.
The National Economist Picks Out a
Candidate for 1896


COLUMBIA, S. C., OcT, 9.-In its latest
issue the National Economist, organ OF the
national farmers alliance, has an editorial
speaking Of the recent victory OF Gov. Till
man in the primary election as zone which
will do much to secure legislation in the
interest OF the people, and saying that he
has the 'nerve. the ability and the courage
TO lead the great common people TO a great
national victory In 1867
This was shown to Gov. Tillman and he
smiled oomplecently, but would say nothing
bearing on the suggestion contained in the
editorial.
1t is an open secret that the governors
friends will pit him against Senator Butler
for the United States Senate two years
hence.
l give here an interesting bit OF news that
did not find its way into the papers during
the campaign. It was the intention Of some
or the governors friends TO nominate him
for Vice President Of the United States at
the recent Chicago convention, but it was
dropped as the campaign developed. Iu
fact, a well-known Newberry enthusiast
had prepared the following nominating
speech for the occasion:
"Mr. Chairman and Gentlemen Of the
Convention: I rise TO nominate for vice
presidential candidate OF the democracy OF
SAA'oN N'VoVoS shS 1AO1s ASoHJ ANJ 0lA
TIllmau, the Andrew jackson of South
Carolina"
The governors enthusiast failed to 90 20
Chicago, so we still have the governor with
US.
There are we'll defined rumors to the effect
that the Cotton Plant, alliance organ, will
shortly change hands. The trouble is said TO
have started through the efforts Of Mr.. Bow
den and other third party men to buy the
paper
1t is said that the management will at
William Stokes, and that the controlling
interest has been offered to M. L. Dom
aldson Of Greenville, the new president OF
the alliance. Mr. Bowden has gone to

round the amateur had the best of the
fight, Davis being weak and groggy. To-
ward the end OF the eighth round Davis
landed a swinging left-hand blow on Bar

when Barker took to his bed. Medical eid was
summoned, but to no purpose. Barker died

HORRORS OF FAMINE.

Inhabitants of the Interior OF Mexico
Dying By Hundreds.
Ell PAso, TEX, Oct. 9.-Advices from
the interior Of Mexico give particulars OF a
most deplorable state Of affairs at TocuIa.
Members of the poorer class are dying every
day by hundreds from starvation, aud
their suffering is augmented by an epi-
demic of typhoid fever. At Zacatecas i32
deaths occurred last Sunday. The people
are growing desperate, and in several
instances, notably that OF Moretia. have at
tackled the government warehouses, over,
powered the guards and carried otR all the
corn and other provisions. To add to the
distress the corn crop of this season has been
killed by frost while in the milk. The early
part of the season the country was visited
by drought and planting was not com
menced until late. owing to the lack of rain.
Now all crops have been killed by unusually
early frosts, aud greater suffering among
the poor is expected this winter than that OF
last year.

One of the Oldest Plants in the State
Now a Heap OF Ruins.
ATHENS, GA, Oct. 9.-The Georgia fac
tory. four miles from Athens on the Oconee
river, was completely destroyed by fire this
morning. The Ere was discovered by the
watchman in the fourth story at o'clock.
An alarm was given, but in a few minutes
the flames were beyond control and at Z
O'clock the building fell TO the ground.
The factory was q massive brick build
ing. four stories high. A commodious stor-
age house was attached, and, altogether, iu
was one Of the beat equipped of its kind in
the south. 1t had been built for over forty
years, aud all the stock was owned by the
White family OF Athens. The stockholders
are James White, John White, Capt. W. p.
Welch and Col. W. J. Morton.
The loss is estimated at $50, ,000 with only
$4,000 insurance. This is 10 the Southern
Mutual of Athens.
On account of the poor fire protection
companies would not insure except at a
high rate and for this reason the owners pre-
ferred TO run their own risk. Only yesterday
the company met and ordered automatic
sprinklers 80 as to reduce the rate and to
insure for the full value. Over 200 en-
ployes are thrown out Of work, and with
their families 500 persons are deprived of
the means to gain livelihood.
The company has always been a
strong one, and the factory usually
paid handsome dividend. Since
its founding several large fortunes
have been built up from the proceeds and a
number OF hands furnished employment
Situated upon first-olass water power and
with an established trade with the south
and west 1t will no doubt be rebuilt at
once.

inal cotton factories built in Georgia, aud
demonstrated by big dividends that the
place for cotton manipulation was In the

LONDON. Oct. 9.-The Prince OF Wales
will represent the queen at the funeral of
Tennyson. Lord Salisbury is expected to
be among those present at the poets inter
ment.
The lord bishop of Winchester preached
funeral sermon in Haslemere church to-
day. He referred to the dead laureate in
eulogissio and feeling terms, and his re-
marks made deep impression. In the course
of his sermon the bishop said: II would
call the deceased poet an English Theocri~
tus, rather than Virgil In his complete
ness he seems to me TO far surpRss Words4
worth and to almost match Shakespeare.
He was as strong as Byron without any Of
Byron's cynical and arrogant disdain."
