The following is a synopsis of
the proceedings of a meeting held on
the 9th inst, by the miners and
prospectors of Florence district.
Whereas, The history of mining
camps prove that owing to causes,
first, miscOnception of mining
laws; second, noncompliance with
same; and third, their wilful vio-
lation, have often led to costly
litigation and even loss of human
life, and
Whereas, Claims are now being
illegally held, much to the detri-
ment Of bona fide prospectors and
the welfare of the camp in general.
1t is hereby
Resolved, That we, the miners
and prospectors of Florence Min
ing District emphatically condemn
all illegal methods of acquiring or
holding mining claims, and that
we will use our best efforts in up
holding the law and discouraging
noncompliance with same. And

all lawful means necessary to pro-
tect each in his individual right,
and prevent as far as possible
causes for violence or litigation.

tration shall be to investigat,
grievances brought to their atten

! ly impartial and just. Should an,
: person against whom a decision

HOUSE GETS RIGHT AT WORK.
Four Important Bills Passed, Including
the Pension Appropriation.

Four Important Bills Passed, Including
the Pension Appropriation.
The house without wasting time pro-
ceedcd to business yesterday and be-
fore the session closed had passed three
bills of considerable Importance and the
first of the regular supply bills-that
for pensions. Three of the bills related
to postal matters. One provided for
the use of private mailing cards of the
same general size and character as the
present postal cards when one-cent
stamps are affixed. Another provided
for a limited indemnity of so for the
loss of registered mail matter, and the
third provided for a private carrier SER
vice in towns and villages where no
free delivery exists. 1t provides that
on the application of twenty persons
receiving their mail at the same office
the postmaster shall appoint such per-
sons as are willing to undertake the
collection and delivery of mails; that
the chargeis not to exceed one cent for
each letter, and that the charge shall
be paid by the beneficiaries.
The pension bill was passed without
factious opposition, but Grow Of Penn
sylvania took occasion in the debate to
submit some views in favor of higher
tariff duties based on that portion of
the presidents message relating to the
tariff. The bill carries s1i1, 263, $50,
about $4,000 less than the law for the
current year.
Grow said in his speech that the de-
felt for the first years life Of the Will
son law was $4,000. 000 for the second
si5. 600 600, and for the first five
months Of this year SAC. 976. 453.
Yet the president had not seen fit with
these large deficits to recommend any
measure for the increase of revenue.
The necessity for revenue. he argued.
could not be denied in the face Of the
figures submitted by the president him
self. 1t was purely a business ques-
ton.
Grow received a round Of applause
from the Republican side when he con-
cluded. When the bill was taken up
under the five-minute rule Connolly
CRep) of Illinois offered an amendment
to the provision requiring examining
surgeons to state specifically the rating
the applicant for pension Is entitled 10
in their judgment, so as to make the
rating fixed by the examining board
binding in the pension offio e IL any pension
should be allowed. The amendment
was ruled out on a point Of order.

invoke a class against the masses and

NO league Of business men or other
men. based upon wealth. or other

States senate we have mi,lionaires and
business men enough TO serve all legi-
innate purposes. Senators are needed
who have no speciaiities. but who will
act for the interests OF the country In
gross. without special affinities. The

country sympathize with this league.
There must be less business and more
