REPEAL OR NOTHING.
Cleveland Will Not Consent to Any
Compromise Measure.


WASHINGTON. Sept. 11.-President
Cleveland absolutely refuses to consent
to grant any concessions in the silver
fight, says The Post. More than this,
he will not promise to agree to any
recognition of silver, even should the
repeal bill be passed. This is the sum
and substance of his position as re-
ported by senators who had conference
with him. 1t renewed the confidence
of the friends of unconditional repeal,
who asserted their unwavering faith in
the final passage of the measure.
Led Southerners to Hope.
The publication of the report that a
feeling of compromise was in the air
led good many Southern senators to
hope and believe that perhaps the
crowns of thorns which, as one of
them said, they have been asked to
wear, might be lifted from their vexed
and anxious brows. Their position was
well known. With the interests of
their party at heart they were fain to
present, if possible, some salve which
would take away the soreness of uncon.
ditional repeal. The thorough debate
in the senate is arousing the people OF
their section, and letters are beginning
to pour in appealing to them to stand
out against the proposed legislation.
Aware of this condition, they waited
with eager interest the report from the
president. When the latter's position
became known it caused a temporary
cessation of the compromise talk.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 1.-THE damage

governing the preservation of their

Notes From Silver Greek.


J. s. Penniwell arrived from Seattle last
Sunday and with his freighting outfit is
now hauling freight over the Index-Galena
wagon road for 81 per hundred pounds.
This now makes the freight rate from Sc
attic to this place $l.30 per hundred as
against $3.50 to S last season.
E. X. Currant returned last Friday from
Snohomish. where be has been for few
days astonishing the natives with sight
of the big chunk of ore which ne took
down with him from his latest find, the
Lame Knee.
Riley Curry mas completed the bridge
across the river near the falls and has
nearly finished the trail up Bear creek to
his camp.
A. J. Maxwell arrived from Seattle last
Sunday with four miners who have been
put to work on his claims near Mineral
City.
A. ]. Maxwell came down from Mineral
City yesterday and brought with him
some fine ore specimens from the Cleve-
land for the Seattle mineral palace. One
of the pieces weighs over 100 pounds and
shows up some fine gold bearing quartz
and pyrites. The ledge on this property
is four feet wide. with . rich pay streak
fifteen inches in width.
Corrigan e. Plunkett will finish their
25-foot contract on the Daniel Webster at
Mineral City next week. The mouth of
the tunnel was covered up last winter py
an immense snowslide and in order to
reach it it vas necessary to dig tunnel
through the snow for l5O feet and then sink
q shaft fifty feet in depth.
W. P. Johns and Jack Moore are driving
q 5O-foot tunnel on the Fannie and are un-
covering q fine body Of ore. They brought
down some good-iooking specimens Of yell
low carbonates the other day. which are
exciting considerable interest. as carbonate
ores are something of . rarity IN this
camp.
J. H. Krause is doing the assessment
work on the Delta placer claim on Silver
Creek. He is driving in to reach bedrock
and trials with common gold pan show
rich dirt has aieady been reached.
Mineral City folks say the snow is melt
ing very fast and think the ground will be
bare next week at that place.

The Real Wealth Prod ucsrs.


The economic theory which forms for
millions the basis of the views and feel
ings which they hold and cherish with re-
gard to social problems - that all wealth
is produced by those kinds of toll or excr-
ton of which all healthy men are capable.
and to which the great majority of men in
every community must and DO devote
themselves, and that consequently all pri.
. minorit, are simply an abstraction from
the social product of the majority. Some
of those who hold this theory look on this
abstraction as mere iegalized fraud or rob-
berry. Others consider that for some rea-
son never sufficiently explained the
rich man has somehow right
to possess his riches. though
he generally deserves and should
be denounced Tor the manner in which he
uses them. But at all events they. all Of
them, consider that the wealth of which
great private fortunes are composed can
no. possibly have been produced by the
men who, fairly or unfairly, acquire it;
and that great fortune enjoyed by one
man means necessarily the possession by
one man Of things that have been pro-
duced by>many men. This theory is at
the bottom Of nearly all the social aRita-
tlOn ii tOudy, CIcatiuS CouiuStOu HIS
understanding amongst men who ought
to understand each other, rendering futile
and mischievous much practical effort.
and turning much generous and genuine
feeling into absurdity. For, although
when looked ut specifically, il has the
air Of a truism, it embodies in reality
the gravest Of all speculative errors
which in our day have affected any
practical problem and it is high time
that the opponents Of economic science
should rouse themselves. should ex-
pose its true character in clear and
precise language, and should once for all
expel it from the popular mind by estah-
fishing in its place the antagonistic truth
that corresponds to il. For the political
economists are mainly to blame for its
prevalence: and though il may not be cor
rect TO say that they themselves are guilty
of it, It could have never spread itself as 1t
has done if it had not been for the mac
curacy and incompleteness both of their
thought and their Technology with re-
gard 10 . certain fundamental part of their
subject.

tanned. Where lies the ledge whence this

question that at present puzz es the
miners of the camp, and already par
ties are prospecting for it. Some loca-
tons Of gold bearing quartz were made
last summer. but not enough WORK 10
demonstrate their value has yet been
done, and new arrivals in the district are
eager in their search for quartz carrying
the yellow metal, confident that It will be
found in paying quantities. Mr.. Hamann
Is not very enthusiastic in his praise OF the
trail to Ruby creek. but states that its
present condition keeps ont prospectors,
prevents those already interested there
from getting in supplies, and consequently
retards the development of the district.
The Skagit river was high during his late
trip. and in one place. where the trail lay
along cliff, 1t was covered with water to
quite depth. Thus prevented from fol-
lowing the TRAIL in order to proceed on the
journey it was necessary to climb tree
and scramble ont on one of its limbs to
point from which the top of the clih could
be reached. To one carrying pack. this
is not an easy task. Mr.. Hamann thinks
the county will be amply benefited should
it make liberal appropriations for the i'm
provement of old and the building of new
trails in the upper valley.
