cratic rule. The panic of 1898, like
that OF 1873, had its origin in Rerubli
can rule. The panic of 1893 was. in
the main, the result of n burthensome
tariff, and the unwise policy of tha Re
publican party. Thnt OF 1873 was
attributable to similar causes. The
effects Of that panic did not begin TO
pass away, and the country did not np.
proaoh its normal conditions until
1878, and not until 1880 was recovery
from the confusion complete.
This memorable period OF hard times
lasted for five years and during all that
time the Republican party remained in
control OF the national Government.
Coming back to the panic of 1898 no
one Will donbt that it was tine result of
Republican misrule. But two wears

from the consequences of that panic.
The finances of the country were IN

cite alarm. The industries of tbo
country were paralyzei and wages
were down to low ebb. No enterprise
could afford to keep employed moro
than an absolute need, The railroads
were doing practically nothing, while
factories, without regard to locality or
conditions, were either closed up en-.
tirely or worked on short time. These
are some of the lessons which these

Salt Lake carried off the honors in
the competition for the contract to
supply the largest hosting plant in
the Rocky mountains. 1t is to equip
one of the deep shafts Of the Ana
conda company's properties at Ana
conda, Montana, and L. C. Trent &
Company will supply the machinery.
Telegraphic intelligence of their sue
cess was received by the gentlemen
yesterday morning and the order for
the manufacture of the ponderous ma
chinery has gone forward ITO Akron,
Ohio. 1t will require sixty days IN the
manufacture. The competition for this
contract was very tropical, every ma
chinery house in the country being
represented. Salt Lake was able to
carry off the honors by reason of the
prices quoted and the excellence OF
the machinery offered by the local
house.
This hosting engine Is a direct act
ing machine of thirteen tons capacity,
which it will raise from the bottom of
a 35O0-foot shaft, operating triple deck
cages. The main cylinder will be
twenty-eight inches In diameter, while
the stroke will be seventy-two inches
1t will undoubtedly be the largest
hoist in the inter-mountain country.

Recent Strikes in the Pride of the
West.
Sam ellison is back from the Deep
Creek country and reports a great
deal of activity in that section of the
ments have just been made in the
Pride of the West, at Dugway, owned
by Salt Lake people. 1t is a silver
lead-gold proposition and a three foot
vein has just been uncovered, ore from
which runs about sixty ounces in sill
yer. S14 in gold and a respectable
amount in lead. Shipments are to soon
be made, probably to the bennington
smelter of the Ibex syndicate.
The owners of the Rapid Transit,
one of whom is Gibson, have just
four experienced parties and a force
of workmen is now hard at work de-
veloping the ore bodies, which are
said to be very extensive. The mine is
located near the famous Buckhorn
and the average value of the ore is
$35. 1t has been decided TO ship to
bennington. The cost of transporta-
ton to market will be SLIT, so that
the leasers of the mine should make a
neat little sum monthly.
Speaking of the prospects of the
Russell district, which is that section
to the west Of Rush valley, Mr.. Gil
son stated that he has every faith in
DIT and is of the opinion that the de-
velopnent work now going on there
will result in the uncovering of some
rich mines All of the locators who
are taking enough interest to do some
work feel the same way about the fu-
ture of the district and they will con-
tinue working away as before. Some
good assays are being obtained right
along, the latest made from ores taken
out by ellison, going all the way from
so cents to $12. It is Gilson's intention
to return to Russell within the next
day or two and investigate the several
reported strikes of extra high grade
rock made during the past week or

THE MALAD TELEPHONE LINE.
People of the Valley Are Again
Aroused Over the Prnposition.


The people of Malad are getting very
anxious regarding that proposed extern
sion of the Rock Mountain Bell Telephone
company. from Franklin, Idaho. to the
city of Malad and yesterday delegation
consulted with President Wallace and
General Superintendent Murray, of the
company, regarding the improvement
which would mean so much for the Malad
valley The gentlemen We're assured that
the company is ready at any time to
make increases in its service, provided,
guaranteed to merit the necessary outlay
of capital. AS has been the case on sew
eral previous similar occasions the visit
ors pledged the good faith of the COM
in consideration of the company making
the extension, the people would respond
generously not only with patronage but
also other substantial aid in the way of
more bright than ever for the extension,
and there is strong reliability that the
board of directors of the company will in
the very near future authorize the max
ing of the Improvement. Much will, of
course, depend upon the action taken by
the Malad people themselves. If they are
ducements they will secure the telephone
connection. 1t is hardly likely that the
company will make a thirty-mile extern
sion of its lines simply in the hopes of
securing sufficient trade to make the in
vestment carry itself. There must be
some sort of a guarantee from the pros
pective patrons of the system. This the
gentlemen who yesterday discussed the
matter with the executive officers Of the
company promised on behalf of the peo-
pie They will endeavor to work up the
necessary enthusiasm among the citizens
of the Malad valley, and have no fears
of the result.
In order to consider the matter of rates
with some prospective change in the sys-
tenn, the board of directors of the COM
pany was yesterday afternoon in session
for a considerable length of time. All of
the phases of the situation were fully dis
cussed and within the next few days the
public. 1t is anticipated that there will
be material reductions made in the resi-
dence system and probably some changes
for the better in the business service.

ANOTHER DECREASE RECORDED.
Falling Off in Ore and Bullion Re

a great decrease from Bingham on ac-
count of the terrible condition of the
roads. it is small wonder that the re-
ported bank ore and bullion receipts
for the past week ran pretty well down
toward the 100000 mark. The total
valuation of the ore and bullion
handled by the banks was SIG, 294.
which was a decrease as compared
with the total of the previous week of
something over 10000. Even the re-

shippers. The Ontario went on record
with 22.500 fine ounces. but the DAILY
was silent for the entire week. The
Eureka-Hill sent out several carloads
of concentrates, while the other prop
critics of the same company made some
heavy shipments of ore to the north
ern smelters. Yesterday the Mammoth
moved twelve carloads of concentrates
the consignment being to the Guggen-
helms at Denver. Then the Centennial
Eureka also made several shipments to
the same outfit. Down at the hex
everything is operating with COM
parative smoothness. and regular ship
mentS of bullion and matte are being
made.
At the smelters in the valley but
three stacks are being operated to
their capacity. one at the Hanauer and
two at the Germania. The Pennsyl-
vania is operating on about half time,
or less, on account of the breaking
down of the blower. It is anticipated
that on the 18th the Hanauer will blow
in its second stack on matte. Good pro-
gress is being made with the construc-
ton of the Germania's new furnaces.

From the Eureka Democrat.

John Moore, T. D. Sullivan. J. P. and
]. H Driscoll started men to work on
the Little Chief this morning. The shaft
is now down 100 feet. The first sixty
feet were sunk through wash and debris
and was well timbered. The owners
went through four-foot vein at ninety
feet that assayed in both gold and silver.
They propose now to sink straight down
another hundred feet. cross-cut to the
east and catch the vein again on the dip.
The vein showed up two well defined
walls and has every appearance of
pern.ancy strike of pay ore in the
Little Chief would be a great blessing to
Eureka.
From reliable sources we learn that
the keystone ores are carrying more gold
than ever before. If silver is never re-
stored to its monetary function Tintic will
hold her own as a mining district and if
silver should be treated fairly by Con-
gress we will have a city double the size
of any other in Utah.
The Grand Central shaft is down
twenty feet. Owing to the want of
timber for the shaft the boys are taking
a rest for few days but will drop
down speedily when everything is in
roo dineSS

Yesterday being a legal holiday. the
courts were closed and there was prac-

Of any importance.
Fred C. Goodman, by his attorneys,
Messrs. Powers, Straup & Lippman,
has begun suit against the Mammoth
Mining company to recover $4,000
damages for personal injuries sus-
tanned while employed in the defend
ant company's mine.
Mr.. Goodman alleges that on Feb
ruary &c, he started to 60 down the
shaft to the 1900 foot level. On reach
ing the thousand foot level, two rails
used as chairs, interfered with the pro-
gress of the cage and he was thrown
out and fell about twenty feet into the
drift, severely hurting his back and in
juring him internally. The accident,
it is alleged, was caused by the negli-
gence and carelessness of the company
and damages are claimed in the sum
named.

Browning's Great Gun Meeting
With Merited Success.
Advices received yesterday from John

enterprlsing firm of Browning Bros, of
Salt Lake and Ogden, were to the effect
that within the next few weeks an agent
who is now being instructed fully by Mr..
Browning, is to carry the wonderful
"Peacemaker," the machine gun which
was on exhibition at the last territorial
fair, across the Atlantic for the purpose
of introducing.,it there. Already the gun
has geen inspected by several foreign
officials of high rank and all have pro-
nounced the weapon unequalled in the
world 1t is highly probable that several
adopt it and give orders for the manu-
facture of sufficient number of the
guns to equip their batteries, special or
general. The United States government
has had experts make an examination of
the 'Peacemaker,'' and at. the recent
tests on the proving grounds of the

impressed with the possibilities of the
gun and their report to the war depart
made contract with the Colts people
to manufacture the guns and they are to

the 'sPeacemaker," as Mr.. BroWnine has
christened his gun, is the product of the
inventive brain of that gentleman. 1t was
turned out several years ago, but several
improvements have recently been made
and the gun is now perfection. The
Brownings recently sold their new re-
peating shotgun to the Winchester Re

turned out by the manufacturers and it
is bound to BECOME extremely popular, for
