Opposed to Gold Standard
Washington. Nov. s0.--The Post. In
cable letter from London. prints an nd
vance copy OF an important article writ
ten by William T.. Chandler. senator
from New Hampshire. for the December
issue of the National Review. the con-
sentative monthly. in which he dis
cusses the late election from the repub-
lican- standpoint. His principal object
Is to encourage European bimctallists
to continue their propaganda. The
article declares that the American peo-
pie desire an energetic foreign policy;
that they mean to annex Hawaii: that
they are deeply affected by the Turkish
atrocities; that they desire to see Ven
ezuela retain her rightful sole domin-
ion over the mouths of the Orinoco. and
that they want TO aid In making Cubs
free and independent. The senator con-
cludes as follows:
That tho United States is opposed 20 the
single gold standard and In IA favor OF re-
tracing. In due course and with careful re-
gard 10 the national honor, the steps taken

When the japanese boy or girl begs

times tells him this little fable about
the little girl and the rice cakes; "Once
a little girl was told by her mother 70

wanted TO play shuttlecock. and left the
dough in the bowl. A little imp in the

threw the dough into the air. IL fell

Bingham, during the past few
months. has learned the lesson that
it is better to settle litigation by COM
promise than to law to the bitter end,
when tie litigants are left to hold the
sack while the lawyers and the courts
walk Oft with the contents.
The Phoenix set this good example
when it settled with the Commanded;
the Dalton G Lark fell into line on al
most the same tack when it absorbed
the Keystone and lead properties, and
now the Tough Nut company, in its
litigation with the Fairview people,
has seen the beauty of the thing, -
and It too. has settled its difficulty with
the Fairview people outside of the
courts. the result being that the Fair
view has been consolidated with the
Tough Nut group and the Fairview
claimants reimbursed with Tough Nut
stock for their interests.

Good Gold Discoveries Reported in
the Uintah Canyon.
Owen Bailey, who is in from We
Der county, this state, informs The
Herald that of late there has been con-
siderable activity observable in mining
matters in that locality, and that as
soon as the season becomes a little
more advanced there will be a great
deal of prospecting in the various can
yons that break into the river in that
county.
In Uintah canyon, half a mile from
Uintah station, on the Union Pacific
railroad, Mr.. Bailey and his partner,
James Strong. have made two locations
on a strong ledge that can be traced
for 5000 feet or more. The forma ton
at this point is a contact between lime
and quartzite, and the vein, which is
from twenty-five to thirty feet wide,
shows every indication of being a per-
manent one. Samples of ore from diff
ferent portions of this ledge, at no
greater depth than four feet, have been
assayedl in this city and at Ogden and
show values of $50. $33, s51 and $40 in
gold to the ten 1t is the intention to
develop this property this summer,
even if the owners have to part with
portion of their interest in order to
carry on the work.
Nj. Bailey, when seen by a Herald
reporter yesterday, stated that Uintah
canyon was one of the best mineral
lied portions of the state, and that
water and timber were abundant.
There was considerable excitement
also, he said, over deposits of tin in
the mountains between Burch creek
and Uintah canyon, and during the
season he would not be surprised if
this desirable metal was found in COM
mercial quantities.
In Jacobs creek, near Fountain
Green, according to Mr.. Bailey, some
very promising lodges have beeen I'M
covered. from which values of from
SIT TO $40 in gold have been obtained at
the surface Alarge amount of work
is going on in this canyon and people
are f1ocking into this new camp from
all directions.
In Ogden canyon Orson Riser of Og-
den has discovered a large deposit of
manganese ore, of very high grade,
that carries $3.50 in gold at the grass
roots Mr.. Riser will do some work
on this property this season, and be-
lieves that with depth the gold values
will increase.
In La Plata district Mr.. Strong has
uncovered an ore body that assays 20
per cent lead and $50 ounces in silver
to the ton.

S. A. Kenner, who returned recently
from the southern country, brought
with him a large lot of ore samples
rrom Lincoln district and other points
adjacent to Minersville: also two or
three from the desert some sixty-five
miles southwest of there. Some of
these have been receiving the capable
and conscientious attention of w. A.
Hodges, the well-known assayer, the
results in most cases being quite graft
flying. nearly every sample showing
gold, but in small quantities One
from a new discovery was white quartz

lite and malachite. blue and green re-
spectively. which showed so cents gold,
five ounces of silver and % per cent
copper. This being but a piece knocked
off the rock, which had baked and
blistered under the suns of countless
ages, is certainly good enough for a
beginning, especially when it is con-
sidered that the ledge from which it
comes is well defined and about thirty
feet in width.
Another sample from the Coral Reef
at Lincoln showed the astonishing re-
suit of $3.50 gold. forty-five ounces of
silver and 65 per cent lead. This is a
location of w L. Croft of Minersville
a letter from him gives the pleasing
information that work on the famed
December mine of Lincoln which has
been suspended a long time, is now
going ahead again under the direction
of Hon. Presley Denny. the principal
owner, aud all hands therea bout are
waiting anxiously for Hon P T.
Farnsworth to resume work on his
properties
Lincoln district gives promise of
again becoming one of the great pro-
ducers of the state. 1t only needs
work and management, which is prom
isea "A abundance.
The oEce-noted Alexander property
in the west mountains of Sanpete val
ley, is another which gives great
promise for the not distant future.
The Incorporation having lapsed by
limita ton, the mine has recently been
worked as a private enterprise by the
owners, who have pushed the tunnel
in 10 feet and are now only thirty
feet from the ore body. Boulders and
cross-cutting stringers have been en-
countered in .he prosecution of the
work, and from some of these among
the finest ore ever unearthed in Utah
has been taken out, the average as
says having been about So per cent
lead. as many ounces of silver and
occasionally little gold. in one sam
pie $14. An assay from one Of the
stringers almost paralyzed the own
ers, it going 913 ounces of silver with a
trace Of gold and no lead. The vein
is from six to ten feet wide, and when
reached shipments will be made 1t is
only six miles from the railroad A
lot of samples from the latest workings
are on their way here, and the results
will be made known.

nearly through the decomposed gran
lite and the ore was coming in, in
small streaks. The company, there
fore, expects to be in good paying ore
before the month of July is past. The
last assay from the mine showed an
taking the ore as it came clear across
the shaft, and the directors of the
company feel confident that they will
get an average value of from 81 to $40
by the time the shaft is fifty feet
deeper.
Considering the width of the vein
(over eleven feet wide) ore of that
value would pay handsomely to mill.
Prospectors are steadily going to

reports may be expected from new
discoveries ere long.
