The Importance of the decision
of western republican senators
to demand an honest tariff law
that shall protect wool and west
ern products equally with the
products of the east cannot be
overestimated. If western sena-
tors remain firm, and demand
justice for their constituents
while awarding justice to every
other section of the country, the
mintage laws of jackson will be
restored and American industries
will be protected. The repubi-
cans of the silver states have had
the balance of power in the SEN
ate for many years. They have
used the balance of power to give
New England and the east what
ever protection they might re-
quire without demanding or re-
ceiving anything in return. 1t
is true the emergency tariff bill
which was held back by the votes
of western republican senators
was a sham, a delusion, and a
fraud. 1t would have been a
good thing for eastern manufac-
turers, but it is very doubtful
whether it would have been of
any benefit whatever to the west.
But the action of western sena-
tors pointed the road to success.
The wool growers, cotton plant
ers, and wheat raisers have learn
ed to their sorrow that competi-
ton with the silver standard
countries in the production of
those staples means ruin.

$4,000 per month, and we have every

Clarence Rasor is over from
Wilson creek. The property Mr..
Rasor is interested in was bond
ed last fall to J. o. Swift of Hail
ey for $4,000. Five men have
been working all winter and most
of the work has been confined to
the Alpine claim on which they
have run tunnel seventy five
feet prosecuting three veins. The
second vein cropped on the sur
face and measured eighteen inch
es and assayed $110 per ton in
gold, at depth of forty feet it
still shows the same size but pans
a great deal better and will I'M
doubtedly assay 5000. The third
vein is from four to twelve in
ches wide and pans from $500 to
$1,000 per ton in gold. This
vein has been developed for a
distance of eighty feet. They
will ship ten tons of this ore as
soon as they can get pack an

they can sort it so it will go

veins on this claim which will
average ten inches each, that
will mill over 500 per ton.

AL. Ford is in from Blackbird

turning to copper with depth.
On the Uncle Sam at a depth of
100 feet they have five feet of
solid copper ore; a fair sample of
which assayed 1919 per cent. cop

They are at present running
through a reef of very hard
quartzite but the vein still holds
and they have about ten inches
on top and sixteen in the bottom
of the tunnel. This reef on sur
face measures $50 feet across and
they have now run through fifty
feet. Indications all point to
their being just on top of large
body of ore also that they will
encounter a large body of ore as
soon as they get through the
dykes, as the groupings of the
ledge just beyond the dyke is
from ten to twelve feet wide and
in soft formation. This ledge
has been traced and located for
over one mile.
On the Indian claim they have
two feet of solid copper ore and
twelve feet of free milling gold

NEW YORK. April i--The New York
Financier says this week: The statement
OF the clearinghouse banks OF New York
for the week ending April Is unimportant
In its general features. the operations OF
the week being shown In the decrease or
A,lA. 450 in the reserve. leaving the excess
cash In banks at sl7,050,G5, as against
$l3,929,92S for the same week last year.
The excess reserve touched its lowest
point-$l3, 4l3, 4l2-on March 80, 1895. and
from that time began TO increase. stand
ing four weeks later at 25,270675. But
during that time imports of gold were in
excess OF exports, and the movement from
Europe during the next month, or In May,
amounted in the aggregate TO g, 3O8 $50
The interior movement at the same time
was heavy, the reserve OF the New York
banks standing on May %, 1895, at &c.,
0O5, 80. This showing is interesting, in
view OF the present situation. when the
total reserve of the banks is decreasing,
and a resumption of gold exports Is an
nounced TO begin next Tuesday by one
OF them. The government also has a large
sum OF money deposited with designated
banks and q call for a portion Of this may
be made at any time. The movement in
the interior had not been as yet disturb
ing factor, but 1t will be seen readily that
the outlook becomes more complicated, in
view OF the presence OF factors which
were absent last year. 1t was never above
21-2 per cent. when the reserve was
81. 900 900 less than at present This, too, Is
In face of the fact that a. certain per-
centage of money foreign is being loaned
IN the market.
The latter fact is significant, and II is
said 1t has a bearing in delaying a call
from the Treasury for bank deposits.
The reserves OF many Of the New York
banks are already down to the required
limit. and the outlook despite the com
PARSONS with last year, does not seem
TO favor easier rates at present. The ex-
PLANTATION of this lies In the fact that the
conditions are more normal. and the
locking UP OF a great deal OF money by
the bond transaction had counteracted
the imitation from which the country has
been suffering since 1892.
