CHICAGO PLATFORM DENOUNCED
Ex-Mayor Gilroy of New York Says
It is AnarchiStic.

NEW YORK, Oct. 3.-Ex-Mayor T.
G.. Gilroy was a passenger to-day from
Southampton. In an interview with a
reporter of the United Associated
Presses he said he was an out-and-out
gold man and declared he would vote
for Palmer and Buckner. He denounced
the Chicago platform as anarchy, pure
and simple.
Among the passengers by the Cam
pania was Thomas Lloyd of the Lon
don "Statist." With Mr.. Lloyd came
Manager Mackenzie Kay Of the "Stat-
ist." Mr.. Lloyd said that he came to
the United States under a special COM
mission from his paper to examine the
position of affairs here. The political
situation will be looked into by Mr..
Lloyd, and especially as to it's bearing
upon trade and commerce.
Secretary of the Navy Herbert was a
passenger by the steamship Paris. In
an interview he declared that his study

vinced him that our navy was second

number of gun and steel works while in
Europe and said he had seen nothing
new.
Among the places the Secretary said
he visited while abroad were the Arm
strong and Krupp gun works. He had
also, he said, visited the French naval
depot at Tou1on. He was not prepared
to say whether he would make an Off
cial report of his inspections. All he
would say about politics was that he
was going to vote for Palmer and Buck
ner. The Secretary will leave for Wash

BRYAN AT ST. LOUIS.
Missouri Democrats Welcome Him
Very Enthusiastically.

ST. LOUIS, Oct. 3.-Candidate w. j.
Bryan was tonight welcomed by cheers
from 1000 throats at the Auditorium,
where he addressed officially, as it
were the delegates of the National
Democratic Clubs now in session, as
we'll as a great outpouring of the citi-
zens of ST. Lnlis. The pressure at the
Auditorium was so great that the Ser
geant-at-Arms was ordered to open the
doors to the people, and In less than ten
minutes the building was filled. The
crowd was so great that the house was
inadequate for the purpose. When Mr..
Bryan arose the crowd became ram
pant, and it was some time before he
was able to proceed. He said in part:
''Mr Chairman, ladies and gentle
men: For just little while l ask your
attention. I do not require a great
deal Of time to say all that / have to
say to you tonight. The clubs can be
of more service now than in any pre-
vious campaign, because this campaign
is being run by the people themselves.
The clubs have adopted a button which
presents the likeness of Thomas Jeffer-
son. If you search history you cannot
find man more worthy of being taken
as an ideal statesman, because in all
the history of the human race there has
never been but one Thomas Jefferson.
(Applause.) OF all the constructive

ment granted the rocks to San Fran
cisco for park, but still retained an
interest in the rocks to the extent of
control of the seals. No provision was
made as to how the seals were to be
controlled or limited. Fish Commits
sioner Price Of California complained
that the seals were now so numerous
that they were interfering with the fish
ing industry Of San Francisco Bay, and
asked the Secretary to destroy all or to
limit the number. Mr.. Little holds that
Congress has made no provision for ex-

that 1t rests entirely with Congress as
to what disposition shall be made of the
seals and what legislation1will be neces-
sary before any action can be taken.

OREGON MINING NOTES.
The Grant Bros. VIII Resume on n
Large Scale.


The Democrat of Baker City, Oregon,
comments on mining matters in that
locality as follows:
The Perry mine, which is being oper-
ated by a Chicago capitalist and under
the management of J. w. Mccoy, has
thus far been developed by 400 feet of
shafts and tunnels and arrangements
are now being made to sink 100 feet
deeper or to water level, at which time
mill will be erected UPON the prop
erty. A new within has just been
erected and the mine is we'll equipped
for deep sinking operations.
W. Talmage, a capitalist of New
York, has secured a 80 day option to
purchase the Sparta canal and quartz
properties owned by CAPTAIN Clough,
who is now in the city on his way nome
after an absence of several weeks.
Superintendent Geiser, of the Bon
ANA mine. is in the city. The many
improvements being made at the mine
when completed viii equip the mine
better than any property in the north
west.
The hex mine is being looked after
by a representative of the largest
capital in the country, and it is to be
hoped that the owners will see it to
their advantage to let the property go.
No better prospect can be found on
the Pacific coast.
The Gold Ring Mining company con-
templates extensive development in ad-
dition to the already large amount of
work done on the Rachel mine. a mill
viii be erected on the property in the
near future.
Colonel Alexander, who has been
operating in Sparta district, is in the
city, and is pursuing Investigations in
closer proximity TO Baker City.
With the opening of the coming
placer season the Grant Bros will
carry on operations on a very large
scale at Granite. They will employ up
wards of 100 men and it is confidently
expected thew will realize big returns.
The forthcoming edition of the O. r.

description of the mines of eastern
Oregon, will prove a valuable advertis-
ing card for this section on account of

has resigned. He is not easily fright
ened, nor is the shattering of his nerves
an easy task, but yesterday morning
he discovered the grinning ear marks
of conspiracy against him, such as
would have made Benedict Arnold
Shiver in his army boots, and given
Guy Fawkes acute spasms beneath the
Thames embankment. The plot orig
mated in a part of The Herald building
nearest the sky. and was the joint con-
coction of the compositors and proof
readers of this paper.
The scheme, as the pigskin reporter
interprets it, is to blast his reputation.
to take away even the frayed and
frisky edges of it, which the reporter
of tandem wedges and touch-downs had
hoped to keep free and unspotted from
the world.

DON'T BE IN 4 HURRY.
Give Your Stocks Time 10 Grow in
Value and Price.


A mistake is often made in selling
out stock before it has had time to
grow in value through growth of the
company's property, says the Denver
Record. The fact is overlooked that
the crucial period in the history of any
enterprise is IN its earliest days. There
is no large fund to draw on for ex-
penses, every foot of progress in the
mines must be paid for in cash, the
books must be carefully kept, CORE
spondence maintained, all in the most
economical manner. The officers often
give much of their time to the COM
pany without charge, realizing their
responsibility to stockholders and be-
ing ambitious to vindicate their course
in inaugurating the enterprise. 1t is
unreasonable to expect them, while
pushing the sale of treasury stock, to
also provide a market at a profit for
previous buyers. And it is against a
holders interest to throw his stock on
the market in competition with the
treasury stock, rather than patiently
await the result of the efforts of those
in charge to bring the property to the
front We could name two or three
stocks now of solid value which would
have been ruined if this scalping proc
ess had not been thwarted by a pool
ing of all private shares until the
properties attained a paying condition.
An investor should satisfy himself that
a stock is a good one to stay with be-
fore going into it.
