There arrived in Denver the other
day from Aspen, a a load of nearly
pure silver ore from the Smuggler
mine, and the single car of ore is
worth 100000, This a contains the
purest lot Of silver ore eyer shipped
out of a mining camp and lays about
the car in pieces weighing from an
ounce to 1900 pounds. This pocket of
ore was struck in the Smuggler mine
about SIX weeks ago, and has been
kept under guard ever since. Its great
value may be realized when it is re-
membered that at the present low
price of silver it Will bring 100000.

The Empty Dinner Pail.

AS sit idly dreaming
OF the happy time that's gone,
Not a dollar in my pocket,
And the winter coming on;
The thing that breaks me up the most
And makes me feel so small.
Is the sight of that old dinner pail
Hanging on the wall.
I've carried that old dinner pail
For fifteen years or more,
And it never saw me out of work
Or destitute before.
For with shops and factories running
And the best of wages paid,
A prosperous lot of fellows were
Dinner pail brigade.
But you see we wasn't satisfied,
Though it seemed most mighty strange.
And we said we thought the country
Would be better for a change;
And we rallied about the tariff
And we bowed about free trade,
And we voted democratic
Did the dinner pail brigade.
Well, a change was what we wanted
And we got it, too, you bet,
For the shops and factories all shut down
And left us in the wet;
TIL banks suspended payment
And / lost my little all,
and the dinner pail is empty now
That's hanging on the wall.
I'm dependent now on charity
For the roof above my head,
And I'VE seen my wife and little n
Go hungry to their bed;
But I've plenty time for thinking
And see it isn't strange,
For l voted democratic
Just to have a little change.
Yes, we voted democratic,
And you see the change has made
A lot of hungry beggars
OF the dinner pail brigade;
The working men are idle
But the NORWOOD and the gall
Is to see the empty dinner pail
Hanging on the wall.

pretty clearly the probable course Of the
sugar convention which will meet at the
Academy Of Music The discussion which
took place proved eonclnsively that the
Jsioayltiae was right IN declaring that the
calling of the convention was inexpedi-
emit at the present time, aud calculated
to do harm. IL also proved that the

calling the convention,

THE FIRE DEPARTMENT AND INSURANCE
RATES.

No town In the state has more Ell
cient volunteer fire department which
is supplemented by waterworks system.
The efficiency of the fire department and
the promptness with which it responds
to every alarm is a matter of nOterlety.
Cur exemption from disastrous fires Is
also remarkable. As a matter of fact,
during period of five years the insur-
ance companies have paid for losses in
this city less than twenty per cent Of
their receipts for premiums NOtwtth-
standing this fact, the underwriters as
soeiation has systematically aud regularly
increased the rates in about the same
proportion that our ability to control
and pre- vent fires has increased. The
completion of the waterw0rks which
should have been followed Il lowering of
rates was the signal for an increase and
the purchase Of two new hose carts was
followed by another turn of the crank
and further elevation Of the already
exhorbitant rates.
The people Of Lake Charles are weary
of paying double rates to pay for New
Orleans losses.
We respectfully call the attention Of
the Southwestern Association to the
facts mentioned.

OUR WASHINGTON LETTER.

From our regular correspondent.
Washington, d. c. MAY II, I994.-The
more the democrats study the proposed
amendments to the Wilson tariff bill, and
the cansc which led up to their adoption
by the subcommittee, the less they object
to them as whole. When the amend
ments were first made public there were
some extremely vigorous protests from
democratic senators and representatives,
and for the time it looked as though the
concessions made in those amendments
might prove to be but another case of
jumping out Of the frying pan into the
fire." but today the feeling is decidedly
better and the impression general, regard
less to politics, that the proposed amend
ments will all be adopted and the bill
passed by democratic voters. Even Sena-
tor Hill Is expected to vote for the bill, al
though it is understood that he has about
made up his mind to test the sense Of the
senate regarding the ineome tax, by in0y-
ing that the bill be remitted to the
finance committee with instructions to
TO report it without the Income tax. He
declined positively but politely to make
additional statement concerning his in,
tentions, since the amendments were
made public. There are few democrats
however, who believes that his vote will
be cast against the bill when IT Il pul
