For surely but a moment past heard

And hear the dying moan OF friend and foe
In combat fallen side by side But 10

The Typical American.

The typical Americans have all been
Western men, with the exception, let
US say. of Washington. Washington
had not had much of European Gull
ture. The qualities that made him a
great commander and a great presi-
dent, were qualities which would have
made him an equally great frontiers
man. You cannot imagine Hamilton,
or Madison, or Livingston, or John
Adams, or the Pinckneys living toler-
ably on the frontier. They are not
Americans in the sense in which Clay
and jackson and Lincoln are Ameri-
cans. We may wish that the typical
American of the past had had more
knowledge, a more cultivated appre-
citation of the value of what was old
and established, juster view of
that they had been more like Webster
and less like Jackson; and we may
hope that the typical American of the
future will be wiser and better poised
But in the meantime the past is to be
understood and estimated as the facts
stand, and only a thoroughly sympa-
thetic comprehension of these men who
have actually been the typical Ameri-
cans will enable us to effect that pur-
pose. The fact that Clay rather than
Webster, Jackson and not John Quincy
Adams, represented the forces which
were really predomina ding and dis
tinctivly American in our DEVELOPMENT
is commentary enough on any theory
that makes either of the peculiar sec
tons of the Atlantic seaboard the prin-
cipal or only theatre of American his

OPERATIONS AT MERCUR
HEAVY SHIPMENT OF sULPHIDEs
WILL SOON BE MADE.
Large Body of Masons VIII Be
Pat to Work ON the Copper Plant
This Morning.

Great is Mercur, the coming gold
camp Of the west. An immensely rich
strike has just been made about a
mile down the canyon from the Mercur
mines, in a group owned by local
parties. The rock taken from near the
surface in one place assays SAL 20 the
ton and from another hole $2O67 to the
ton. Heretofore the richest rock which
has ever been found in the camp as
says but $50 to the ton and the owners
of the mine from which the rock was
taken thought they had a bonanza,
and so they had, but the men who are
in this last great strike have their
fortunes already made. Ore taken
from the Camp Floyd district which
goes as high as IS to the ton is orn-
sidered very rich rock, and now some
has been discovered which assays just
five times that high.
When the results of the assays
which We're made yesterday-reach
Mercur there will be some intense ex-
citement and the rush to the camp

Within the next few days the Mercur
company will make heavy shipment
of sulphides from its mill at Mercur.

purpose of making a general cleanup

Another story on vest.

Craftsmanship" said wise man
many moons ago, is merely the science
of circumstances" and this is now ac-
cepted as one of the aphorisms of the
Senate. In illustration they tell a
story on Vest. 1t was several wears
ago. Some bill was before the Senate
appropriating sum of money to
some local. almost quasi-private pur-
pose. Vest opposed it, and made a.
great constitutional argument against
any such diversion of public money.
Senator Coke, who admires Vest great
ly, was much pleased with the argu-
ment. and congratulated the Missouri
Vest was no doubt mildly
proud of himself. But pride precedeth
a fall. The echoes of Vests grafton
still rang in the Senate chamber when
he received a wire from Governor Crit
tenden telling how the hoof and mouth
disease had made sudden and deadly
appearance among the cattle of Mis-
those states would need and must have
federal aid and federal mon
ey to combat and wipe out the epidenl-
ic. There was no help for it. Vest had
to move in the matter And in urging
it. was brought face to face with every
argument and every sentence in his
famous constitutional speech, which
had been so much admired by Coke.
This reversal of Vest in the legislative
waltz disconnected Coke not a little.

of capital and enterprise seems to be
the only requisite necessary to this
result. This place is also an objective
point for a railroad now being made

title to a large tract of land between

The year closes with prices of MANY
products the lowest ever known. with
millions of workers seeking in vain for
work, and with charity laboring to

reports deluded traders with the notion
that crops of last year were so short
that famine prices could be realized

bought and held with the aid of banks
