not. She then broke down and confessed

EDITORIAL NOTES,

The Geary act cannot be inforced
as it costs too much.
The ore in the Potisi pinched out
on the ten hundred level.
The Denver News says the men
who voted for Cleveland and "holler-
ed" for free coinage feel like the boy
who tried to hold the mule by it's
heels.
Litigation has broken out in the
Buckeye district. Last Saturday an
injunction was granted by Judge
Cheeny against the further working
of ore of the mines until the case
could be settled in court.
Eastern papers are commenting on
the fact that Chairman Clarkson in
his speech at the Louisville conven-
ton did not mention protection and
reciprocity" the battle-cry of the old
Republicans In the late campaign,
and are asking if the young Republi-
cans have thrown those principles to
the wind.
