An Important Mining Discovery.

William Ross, an old prospector,
has created the greatest mining ex-
citement of the year. He has been
prospecting in the Fox range Of
mountains about twenty miles north
OF Pyramid Lake, and discovered a
lead that is over one hundred feet
wide. and that can be traced by crop
pings for over four miles. The for
ma ion in which the lead is situated
is porphyry on the hanging wall and
sla g on the foot wall The trend OF
the lead is almost due north and
sou III. with dip to the west. There
are millions of tons Of ore in sight.
The ore has blush tinge and con
tain5 a high percentage Of granite.
Assayers say they never saw anything
like it before. 1t contains from Sc to
$I2 per ton in gold. The ore Is free
from base metal and sulphurets, the
gangue being quartz and graphite.
Assayers say it can be worked by Or
binary mill process, as the gold is
free. Samples Of the ore have been
tax IN to the State University, and it
will he treated by Professor Jackson
Of the mining department, who will
an we it md determine how it can
be worked.
From reports received the ore body
is us extensive as that of the Tread
well mine Of Alaska, and carries more
than twice rs much gold. The facili-
ties for working the ore on the ground
are good. There is All abundance of
wood and about fifty inches of water,
with plenty of fall. Tho mine is
alb ,ut 50 miles due north of Reno,
and is about A. miles from the ter
m nus Of the NC. o. at Amadee. Mr..
Ro's. the discoverer of the mine,
nanel it the Tin Silver lead, as he
thought from the appearance Of the
ore that it contained tin or silver, or
both. whereas assays show that it con.
tain5 neither.

Tho PSrcontage Against the Player So
Large He Loses In the End.
Great interest, says Nice correspon-
dent, has Acknowledgements the accounts
published of The gambling at Monte
Carlo, and tho Casino people and their
friends have not failed to use these de-
scriptions of the phenomenal good luck
of some of the players for the purpose
of making known the momentary adj
vantage gained over the bank. The
desired results are following this man
euver; the rooms are kept filed and the
interest and hopes of players are sus-
tanned. The Casino company draws the
greater proportion of its enormous
profits from the crowds of smaller
players; they rush to initiate in their
little way the richer men who stake tho
maximum, and, as their capital is linn
tied, the result is inevitable.
1t would be both interesting and use
full to others to record the actual eX-
pericnces of the heavy gamblers whose
extraordinary play has been the cause
of SO much excitement. The result of
my conversation with them is that, al
though they have succeeded in break
ing the bank dozen times q week,
they are by no means great winners
upon the whole. In counting up the
sums taken from the table it is neccs-
. sary to reckon the amount of previous
losses. All these heroes of the hour at
trcntc-ct-quarantc state, without *
ccption, that ut the end of it all they
are losers. The lucky one is n Greek,
who, after having obtained an advan-
tagc over the bank of 1000, had the
good sense to leave Monte Carlo for his
native country with the money in his
pocket.
For twelve years n certain English

portance will be the formation of a
state board of agriculture; the traffic
in bogus butter and cheese; the pro-
lection of orchards by spraying and
otherwise; and the irrigation question
in all its phases. This latter topic
irrigation-is the greatest single ques-
ton before the farmers of Utah today.
All farmers Of Utah are especially
requested to make this their holiday
jaunt and attend the meeting. The
railroads will have a half fare rate
in and it is hoped that there will be
a general turnout of farmers to the
meeting. While all farmers of Utah
are welcome, it is suggested that the
farmers of every ward in the state APP
point a delegate to represent them at
this meeting
There appears to be a very depressed
feeling among the farmers as regards
their condition. One farmer writes
from Salt Lake county as follows: IF
hogs. grain, potatoes and other farm
products continue going down farmers
will surely awake to the necessity of
self defense. They had better be
slaves at once and be free from the
fear of starvation"
Farmers make no concerted effort to
improve their condition, no concerted
effort at self defense. Let US see what
can be done at this meeting.

when Peace VIII Come.

Some Of the Republican newspapers
throughout the state are crying for
peace in the ranks of the Republican
party. A state of tranquility is surely
to be desired by all Republicans, be-
cause it needs all it's energies to fight
the enemy, but sometimes the enemy
in camp is worse than that on the out
side of the works. In Idaho this is the
case to a great extent, and the party
is only trying to free itself of that
class Of men who always want to die
tate as to the policy of the party and
to capture all the positions, and then
because they cannot, do all they can to
destroy the party by trying to defeat

after the election concoct falsehoods to
make ammunition for the enemy
Idaho Republicans have a lot of this
kind of Republican" in camp, and if
the party wants to be successful it
must eXterminate these traitors and
cutthroats; after that has been done
then there will be peace but not I'M
til then.
The Republicans of Latah county
have suffered from this class of Re
publicans, and in the future there will
be no quarters shown. Those fellows
who are always sticking their knife
