A. P. Challis came down from
his Stanley Basin placer mines
one day last week. He made a
good cleanup this season, and
is now being recompensed for the
many years of toll that he has
spent in getting his claims in
shape to work. He has plenty
of pay ground to operate for a
hundred years to come. Every
one is pleased with his prosper
ity. Although engaged in gold
mining and almost a lifelong
Republican, Mr.. Challis will vote
for Bryan and Sewall electors
this year. He wants to see
America free from the greed of
the gold power again. We are
pleased to see the old time Re-
publicans cast party aside and
vote prosperity

Chas. Pagan left at our resi-
dance last week some of the fine
st potatoes raised in any country.
They are SO large that we are
thinking seriously of starting a
hotel-too big altogether-one

mon-sized family, and of most
excellent quality. Then he
