John ID. Nicholson, chef at the
Evans, has resigned his position to take
effect the last of this month for the

Wednesday. From them we learn that

: arrangements for the erection Of 9
smelter of large capacity at the Mic
: Republic city. The Union Hill mines
which are owned by the gentlemen
who are backing the proposed smelter
have, after thorough and practica
: test, proven to be much richer and th,
= ore beds much more extensive than tn,
: most sanguine members Of the com
pany anticipated. If no financial up
heaval is brought about by the coming
Q election; If the stability of our currenc,
and the maint enance Of the nations
b honor and credit are assured by tn
!, election of Mckinley, then the propose,
smelter will in all probability be rapid
ly pushed to completion. The practic
al assurance of republican success ha
already brought about a better feelin
among investors, and this visit O
eastern capitalists to the Hills at thi
time, seeking profitable investment.
), is due largely to this feeling of conf
