CANNOT BE REPEALED.

Thete is no doubt about the Senate
having at least majority Of 10 against
the unconditional repeal of the Sherman
law, even if it should pass the House.
Cleveland will be thwarted in his infa-
nous designs against silver and the inter-
eats of the people even if it becomes
necessary for the Senate to sit until the
December session.
There is no significance in the avowal
Of Senator Voorhees, that he is with the
gold advocates, as his intimacy with
the President had been noticed months
ago, and it was stated at the time that
he would be willing tool of Cleveland's
provided he was allowed to dispense q
portion of the federal patronage among
his friends. Cleveland evidently com.
Piled with his wishes, as he has by his
actions strltified himself, and, like Sec.
rotary Carlisle, deserted for the sake of a
mess of pottage, policy that he had ad.
vocated for twenty years. But there
will be day of reckoning for all such
renegades.

YELLOW PINE DISTRICT.

The Mining and Scientific Press of the
10Th inst, contains the following:
Nv. Kelley, formerly of Phoebe, New,
is in San Francisco in the interest of
mines in Yellow Pine district, Lincoln
county, Nevada. If the old Nevada
theory still holds good that mining
camp is no account unless it is hard to
get at, then Yellow Pine is possessed of
claims to distinction, for it is very diff
cult of access. At present the nearest
way is by rail from San Francisco to
Blake's station on the A. & P. road, in
San Bernardino county, thence to
Vanderbilt thirty miles. and north
east fifty-6ve miles further to Yellow
Pine.
The Nevada Southern railroad, a
Denver corporation. is building through
the district and extending northward.
Mr.. Kelley finds Colorado men more
disposed to develop that country than
are residents OF San Francisco. So far,
Denver capital has been solely invested
to the exclusion Of San Francisco capital
lists, though every dictate Of business
suggests that to this city the output
should come.
The country rock is mostly lime, badl,
broken up and bidding defiance to thu
theories of formationists, porphyry dike'

chiefly red oxide, from the, Keystone
Clementina and other mines, averages al
assay of 1925 in gold. The former mini

Well. stay ut home, an it SO please
YOU. NY dears, but in some way-if

Why?
Because it is tire .ourth's mission to
feed our love of country, and we need
to keep that love burning brightly and
steadily in our hearts.

took place in the old state house at
Philadelphia one hundred and seven
