One is the famous Gran Quivira

FARO, in the county of Santa Fe. For
many generations search has been
made for these hidden treasures, but
without any satisfactory results.
Even from Europe parties lave come
and, after long and experienced pros
pecting, have given up the search
and declared the report a myth. To
day, however, word comes from Gal
isteo, from so responsible a man as
Hon. Nicolas Pine, to the effect that
the ancient San Lazaro mine had
been found at last. Such is the be-
lief of the parties who have just dis
covered an old shaft and tunnel in
the vicinity of Galisteo, which is in
the immediate neighborhood where
tradition has long located the San
Lazaro If the report is correct and
this traditional mine has really been
found, may it not lead to the discov.

A few evenings since our report
er's attention was called to the beau
tifully Illuminated buildings of the
Smith Premier Typewriter works on
Clinton street, and upon investiga-
ton found that owing to large in
crease in business they were obliged
to run twelve hours day, operating
between 800 and 400 employees. Con
sidering the rapid growth of the
business referred to it is very appa-
rent to the proprietor that it will be
absolutely necessary during the sum
mer months to build another factory,
and in fact the plans are nearly ar
ranged for the construction of new
building of dimensions 60xl4O feet,
seven stories high. This new struc-
ture, in addition to the present build
ings, which have every nook aud cor
ner filled with operatives, will admit
of working at least 600 people, and
if the business continues to increase
in the future as it has in the past it is
very certain that the company at no
distant day will require all the type
writers that 600 operatives can spro-
duce. We are informed that no other
typewriter manufacturers in the state
at present are pressed to fill their or
ders to the extent that they are
obliged to work overtime.-Syracuse

CARTER HARRISON ON SILVER.

AiOli' CaiICi Aldl lSOH, cA-hldyOl VI
Chicago, was at Creole the other
day and made speech in favor Of
free silver coinage, of which the fol-
lowing is an extract. 1t is easy to
see where he stands;
"The demonetization of silver was
one of the greatest crimes ever put
upon the statute books. Silver and
gold jointly were selected by nature
and natures God for money or coin
age metals. Now, gentlemen, since
you have asked me to talk to you, l
will tell you what l know about it.
ain 1878 the statutes introduced
for the dcmonetization of silver was
unknown in the United States. The
people knew nothing of it, the papers
knew nothing of it, it was the work
of few Californians who had gold
to sell; the bill was the one for the
regulation of the coinage, and III this
bill the word silver was purposely
omitted, and the result was that we
have only had gold since with which
to pay our debts. l have studied
this question.
"My recollection is that at the
time silver was demonetized the
world had about $l2, OCO,OO0,OOO ex-
isting in the shape of money or
money metals. The people of the
world, excepting one nation, owed
debts. England is the creditor ma
ton of the world There is little
patch of land in London covering not
over twenty acres, known as Thread
needle street, in which are held
debts, evidences of debts and bonds,
so great that all the money in the
world. could not pay them.
"Now of this Sl2 1000, 100000 lit
tie less than half was gold and lit
tie more than half was silver. The
characterization of silver took away
over half of our debt paying me-
dium. Money itself has no value;
it is merely the medium of exchange
the shadow of value. Years ago
corn was the medium of exchange in
New England, tobacco in Virginia,
and coon skins IN the western part of
our country.
"lhese commodities were used to
pay debts with. The gold bugs tell
us that gold is the only valuable
money. There is place in the
United States where neither gold nor
silver is money-in Alaska. If you
go to Alaska and buy furs and take
with you a sack of silver or gold to
buy furs you could not get a skin.
Hudson bay blankets are the only
medium of exchange the Indian will
recognize. i have been in lands
where copper coins are used, and 9th
ers where iron was the medium of
exchange. | have bought mangoes
IN India with a handful of cowrie
shells, which are the medium of ex-
change authorized by the govern.
ment, but if | walked across the
street TO the British postofiice /
could not buy penny postage stamp
with wagon load of cowrie shells.
That is money which by common
consent acts as medium of exchange.
Where money has been plentiful the
world has always been prosperous
and the people happy; where money
has been scarce times have been hard
and the people unhappy and discon-
tented.

WYOMING OUTLAWS SLAIN.

Cheyenne Wyo., Nov. 15.-Word
has been brought to Buffalo of the
assassination of two more outlaws.
The dead cattle and horsethieves
are the notorious Mike Brown and
George Hanks, fugitive from
Montana. Both men were shot in
the back. They were found dead
at a campfire on Box Elder creek,
near the hot springs of Fremont
county. Four outlaws have been
killed in that vicinity in the same
way within two weeks. Mike
Brown was one of the most indus
trious and enterprising live stock
thieves in the state. He had for
several years been making drives
of horses and cattle to distant mar
kets. Brown stole a great many
ponies from the Indians but they
were afraid of him. It is now evil
dent, that those thieves are being
systematically hunted down.

The county division question
that was decided at the election
last Tuesday, was of much greater
Importance to the citizens of Nam
pa than was that of who should be
president of the United States.
The result was not at all satifac-
tory to our people, many claiming
that the Caldwell managers had
taken undue advantage, and that
the election was unfair. However,
as this may be, it is fact that the
divisionists realized that they had
a hard fight on their hands if they
wished to win. They therefore
commenced early to prepare for it.
There were no fences down, moth
ing was overlooked that would in
the least conduce to their success.
The battle was skillfully planned.
and the result, so far, proves the
superior generalship Of the divis-
ionists. Had those who were op-
posed to the measure commenced
earlier in the campaign to arrange
their plans, the result would have
been different. As it now remains,
the matter will 60 to the courts,

How They Got lsh.

They are telling on the streets
how some men in this city who put
up their money to defeat county
division got fooled. They sent
money to Nampa and the report
came back that 275 men were reg

Ferry and twenty-five at Kuna.
They figured on beating Caldwell
with these voters. When the re.
turns came in they showed that
lo7 votes were cast in Nampa and
IA in the othe two places together.
