Germans Basin

Probably Germania Basin, which
lies north of Ketchum, is one of
coming mining districts Of this Sec
ton, especially since the low price
of silver almost precludes the work
ing of exclusive silver mines. All
of the lodges of the Basin carry
more or less gold, and there are
several exclusive gold properties
working at present, and the out
look for an active season is very
bright.
David Fayle, the owner of the
Goodenough mine, is in from the
Basin, and reports all mines work
ing as doing we'll. Mr.. Fayle has
so tons free-milling gold ore on
his dump which goes So in gold
and So in silver. This is taken from
a 14-foot ledge, and will be worked
by either an arastra or stamps this
summer.
The Washington mine, the pro-
perty of S. G. Fisher, but under
lease to Frank Fisher, has out 20
ton of ore running from 1900 to
1900 ounces in silver and $40 in
gold.
At the Parnell there is IS tons Of
125-ounce silver ore on the dump,
and Ole Opeland and his partners
have out about 35 tons Of high
grade ore on the Idaho dump.
Mr.. Fayle informs US that when
he left, few days ago, that the
snow was eight feet deep, and it
would probably be July before the
trail would be open.

WINSTON, N. &.

ALruRAs county people who con-
template visiting the Worlds Fair
should be careful about purchasing
wildcat cheap railroad tickets,
which may prove worthless, and
thus cost the purchaser much an
noyance. The safe way will be for
the people to call upon Mr.. c. F.
Bradt, the Union Pacific agent at
Ketchum, for information. He can
sell you tickets just as cheap as
they can be found anywhere. When
YOU buy a ticket from your home
agent you can rest assured it will
carry you through. This article is
not written as an advertisement.
The KEYSTONE offers these sugges-
tons, knowing that if adopted they
will save hundreds Of our people
trouble and expense.

A Queer Position.

The Ketchum KEYSTONE says: "The
Republican authorities are talking OF
letting the labor at the state penitentiary
out by contract. They want to bring
convict labor into competition with hon
est labor, and thus further degrade the
working man." The KEYSTONE is usual
ly fair, but it seems to have become
tainted from its Populist associations.
"The Republican authorities are talking
of letting the labor at the penitentiary
out by contract" Indeed! The contract
bill was introduced by member of the
Democratic Populist combine in the sen
ate, and it was passed in both houses ny
a large majority. 1.-The Republican au-
thorities" of the administration have TAX
en- no steps to apply the provisions
of the measure TO the management
of the penitentiary and they will not
do so. The matter is left Optional with
the board and these "Republican au-
thorities'' have announced that they do
not propose to he responsible for such an
observation-disclosures
Such a measure may have emf
mated from a Democrat, but not
from a Populist, who do not care
to father democratic measures. But
assuming that the Statesman is
right in the above proposition,
it leaves its party and the party rep
resentatives in a queer position.
BY passing such measure the re-
publican house places itself and
party on record as favoring such a
move, and by signing such a meas
ure republican governor, the idol
of his party, reiterates the position
of his party. Now comes the States
man with the announcement that
the "Republican authorities" the
chairman of whom is the Governor,
do not propose to be responsible
for such an innovation. But this
announcement comes after the SUBJ
ject was brought up by populist
paper. Will some one tell US where
the republican party stands on any
question-except Doodle. Repent
ance is good for the soul, but when
uuaccompanied by a confession 1t
cannot be taken as sincere.
Nevertheless, we are really glad
the Republican authorities" have
recanted, but there is still the odium
attached to it of the responsibility
of such a measure becoming a law.

SENATOR MITCHELL. of Oregon,
has favored the KEYSTONE with a
copy of his speech on the question
of the appointment of Senators by
the Governor of the state, where the
legislature fails to elect. Senator
Mitchell opposes the admission of
the three senator's who were APP
poined recently. and his speech on
the subject was strong argument
in favor of the election of U. S.
Senators bv the people.
