In xisx Of The unprecedented slump
in silver and other mineral mined
in Idaho, If ws except gold, which
rather slid in the opposite direction,
such an increase in our annual
mineral output would at first glance
seem to controvert the fact that our
mineral output in general has suf-
fered Z very material decline, but
this is nevertheless the case. And
where there has been one prosperous
camp and one prosperous miner or
laborer in the year just closed there
have been Z score Of camps and
half hundred of men to suffer
from the effects Of : declining
market.
In the great majority Of cases the
output has been much less than in
1898, and the net receipts from such
shipments % have been made were
in many cases insufficient to defray
the actual expenses of mining, to
say nothing Of q fair compensation
for the labor and capital employed.
The increased output is accounted
for easily enough when we take into
consideration such remarkable bo-
nanzas as have come to the front
in ldaho's catalogue of mines in the
year past. Notable among these
are the DeLamar in Owyhee county,
and one or two of the silver-lead
mines in the Cmur d'Alene district
which have contributed nearly one
half of the entire output of the state.
Another very important factor
in the mineral output for 1894 is
the newly developed gold mines in
several localities of the state, and
the successful operation Of placers
on the Snake river. Eliminate
these and tie two or three silver
lead bonanzas referred to and the
total yield for the past year will fall
far below that Of the preceding year.
In other words the great aggrega-
ton of silverlead producers, mines
which have done more to employ
labor aud furnish . market for the
products Of the farms, perhaps ten
fold more than the few successful
properties, have fallen off very ma
;eriaAy in their product, and on the
whole the mining industry of the
state, and all those directly and in !
dependent upon it have
suffered more in 1894 than in any
lozen preceding years. if compar-
son could be made on that basis.

Annual Assessment.

introduced bill in the Senate t,
suspend that portion of the U. S
Mining Law requiring the annua
expenditure of ut least 500 on
claim for the current year-a repe
tition on the suspension of assess
ment" of '93 and 81. The Pres
favored such law in '93, the frs
time it was proposed, it being rep
resented that there was so universe
demand for such relief that j
was in every sense public meas
ure. There was some opposition
to it then, but it went through. Ii
"a it went through again, though
the Press and other mining paper
pointed out how one-sided and Diet
rimental the result Of the suepen
sion was. 1t is only by results thai
laws or their suspension can be
Judged. The suspension of assess
ment" has had q trial. It is fail.
ure in the original intent, q detri.
ment to the development of mining
industry and an injury to every
man who is in earnest as to the
working or life of his claim. For
these reasons the Press oppose.
any suspension of assessment, be.
lieving such legislation to be against
the real interests of the real miner.
It would be against public policy
and the public good to repeat in '95
the mistake of "a and 93.-Nining
and Scientific Press.
The KEYSTONE endorses the SEN
timents of the Press on this subject
and wishes to add that it did not
favor the "euspension of assess
ment" in 1894. The original intent
of the measure was good, but put
in practical operation for q season
it was clearly demonstrated that
any good which might have resulted
from it in 1898, when there was a
sudden and extraordinary depres-
zion throughout the country, was
fully offset by the withdrawal Of
capital usually expended among
the working class and prospectors,
whose dependence it had been from
time to time in the development Of
their own claims. The cessation of
development on claims in conse-
quence Of the suspension was 30
very general that it's evil effects
upon the progress Of districts whore
small mines predominated should
have been clear to every one, but

UP IN A BALLOON,
A. Waters, q Dashing Aeronaut, Makes
an Ascension in Our City.

al AbCeHblOH III OuL WY
Saturday evening an Gronaut, by
the name of Waters, made a sue
cessful balloon ascension and para
chute leap, from the lots on State
street, where the Sam Jones taber-
nacle stood. The show was not ad-
vertised, as far as we have been
able to learn, but from the crowd
that was out to see the sight, some
intuition must have caused them
to make for that one particular
spot.
The crowd gathered at 3 o'clock
and stood around until 6 o'clock,
watching the imitation Of the big
balloon. During this time a
"French Carousal," dying jenny
with a big organ, run by steam,
was whirllng around every 20 min.
utes, taking in the nicEles, Mr.,
Waters made his hat play around
and through the crowd to take up
what he could in the way Of free
will Offering for his ascension. AT
6 o'clock the balloon was allowed to
shoot up, and the crowd-most OF
them started on run in the direc'
tion the balloon was blown, north
east, and when Mr.. Waters, in his
parachute, landed ten blocks away,
he had an admiring crowd on hand
to applaud him. The balloon landed
soon after the parachute, IT fell
in Tom Daily's garden, a newly
planted patch, but the crowd took
no notice of the freshly made be'lt
and growing peas, but proceeded tc
tramp around and about that col
lapsed balloon like 1t was a great
slain monster,
The height reached by the bal
loonist could mot have been over
500 feet.
