Black Range District.


Mir. f. A. Reynolds who has spent
the best part Of last year in and about
Grafton, which he visited years ago
and has thoroughly explored that dis
trict, paid the Democratic Office a pleas
ant visit. Mr.. Reynolds is on his way
to Colorado Springs where he has nu-
merous acquaintance among mining
men, owing to three years. connection
with. the Cripple Creek mines, and
hopes to engage the interest of capital
lists in New Mexico mines. MI. Rey-
nolds says that all the work IN the
Black Range and Apache districts is
done by individual effort, no company
work at all. At the present time there
is a number Of prospectors in there
examining the p~Orphyryies of the dis
trict, and so far hey have been justl-
fed in their work. The main forma-
ton Whereabouts is porphyry. The
main belt is three and One.half miles
wide and fully twenty miles long, ex-
tending through two districts. The
chief obstacle to the rapid development
of the district lies in the fact that the
mines lie so far from the railroad and
smelter. 1t costs SIP per ton to haul
to the railroad and S14 freight by rail
from Magdalena to Denver. There are
no concentrators, no mills and no re-
duction works Of any sort; in the Black
Range district.
The ore Of the Ashville y
runs better than $15 in gold per
ten and runs welli n silver. The vein
is two and one-half feet wide. The
owner is working an arastra and is
making a good living from the proper
ty. On the Emporia tere is 800 feet Of
work done. Total shipments of eight
tons extending over a series of years
averaged over 1922. On the Ivanhoe
there is a shaft 400 feet deep and a tun-
mel $50 feet. All told there has been
done 1000 feet of development work.
OF two shipments, the first showed to
1927 pounds $167 gold and Is 36-100 ozs.
silver, the second showed to $3.50
1882 gold and TX ounces silver.
On the Great Republic group there is
LOO feet of work done ON seven claims,
chaiefy on the Great Republic claim
proper. The vein is more than 30 feet
wide; on the foot wall there is four
and one-half feet fof ore in a 4O-foot
shaft, that goes $40 in gold to the ton,
with a streak of one inch inside the
four and one.half feet extending from
top to bottom that will do better than
81 per pound, principally in gold. On
the hanging wall of that vein there is
six and one-half feet of ore that does
better than $12 in gold and $40 per ton
gross.
MI. Reynolds thinks that the great
new gold camp Of 1895 must be remote
from a railroad and in a new district

Tho Hawaiian Islands.

The Hawaiian group of islands are
the most isolated bits of land upon the
globe. They are two thousand miles
from the mainland and eighteen hun
dred and sixty miles from any other
land worth calling such. They are not
bits which once formed portions of
some larger piece of land, and were
subsequently isolated by oceanic
changes. They r of volcanic origin,
having at some period been thrown up
from the bottom of the sea. One con-
sequence is that they have a fora al
most peculiar to themselves. A large
proportion Of the native plants are
found nowhere else.

A HOUSEHOLD REMEDY.

DIR. j. B. Delvaux's Great Indian
Blood Purifier Is Natures Own
Remedy.
MADE from the best and most power
Xl full medicinal and curative roots and
herbs Of the forest. DR.. j. B. DELVAUX'S
INDIAN BLOOD PURIFIER is truly q
marvellous remedy for the treatment OF
all chronic disease in individuals who
have thin blood and have lost their vitali-
ty, and as tonic it has no equal. 1t in
vigorates the system, overpowers dyspep-
sia and walks roughshod over all ailments
having q tendency to depressed spirits.
Within radius Of 100 miles it has nearly
run all other preparations from the mar
ket and is emperor of all family medicine
chests. It cleanses and tones up the
stomach, promotes healthy action of the
liver, bowels and kidneys, and produces
pure rich blood, thus giving the patient
the strength to Withstand the attacks of
diseases. 1t cures syphilis in any stage,
scrofula, old sores, piles, shaking chills,
nervous prostration, general debility.
and will prevent malarial fever. This
great remedy has no rival. Sold in all

try stores, and by authorized agents, who

expenses of the government economical
" and honestly administered.
Sixth-We demand that postal savings
banks be established by the government
for the safe deposit of the earnings Of the
people and to facilitate exchange.
Seventh-Transportation being means
of exchange and public necessity, the
government should operate the railroads
in the interest of the people.
Eighth-The telegraph and the tele-
phone, like the postoff1ce system, being q
necessity for the transmission of news,
should be operated by the government IN
the interest of the people.
Ninth-The land, including all the nat
ural sources of wealth, is the heritage of all
the people and should not be monopolized
for speculative purposes and alien owner
ship of lands should be prohibited. All
land now held by railroads and other cor
porations in excess of their natural needs,
and all land now owned by aliens should
be reclaimed by the government and held
for actual settlers only.
The big fight between the two fac
,ions came OH Thursday over the elec'
ton of permanent chairman. The
"middle of the readers" nominated
James Campiun of Maine, for the pos
ition, and the Bryan people nominated
Senator Allen of Nebraska. Allen was
elected by vote of 75s to 564. The
Bryan peole were enthusiastic, and the
"middle of the readers" were very
much cast down.. Nothing else of i'm
portance was done during the day but
before adjournment, it looked like a
certainty that Bryan would be endors-
ed. Whether Sewall would be endors.
ed also, was matter of doubt.

case. If you will remember, my last
words to you that night when we had
our conversation at Mr.. Bunch's were
"Take care that envy is not at the
bottom of this, and that the people in
the state house do not accomplish the
overthrow of the Reform movement,
if you keep on fighting one another in
this way" and now repeat the warn
ing.
III saw anything in Governor Evans's
conduct to condemn, I would not hes
itate; but believing, as l do, that he
has been guilty of no official miscon-
duct, cannot lend any help to drag
him down or allow any one else to use
me as the instrument of his undoing.
Yours truly,
B. R. TILLMAN.
P. S.-Governor Evans was written
me asking an explanation of your
charges, etc., in connection with our
conversation, and I have sent him a
COPY of this letter as an act ofjustice
to him and to you. B. X. L.
When the reading of the letter was
concluded, Mr.. Duncan said: "Gov-
ornor Evans, may ask you ques-
ton ?"
Evans-Not one, sir. I want no
more to do with that man. I told the
people at Charleston I was going to
buy jackass with some of my fee. l
will give it to Duncan to advertise
himself with throughout the state.
AT DARLINGTON.
The campaign meeting at Darlington
developed nothing of Importance ex-
cept that Judge Earle answered ques-
tions that had been propounded by A.
G. Kollock, after having first made
Kollock admit that he had gotten his
information from J. J. Dargan, the
man who tried to stir up the Negroes
in the last campaign. One Of the ques-
tions insinuated that Earle had with
drawn from the legislative ticket in
1876. Earle explained that he did so
for the good of the party to make room
for a man who had announced his in
tention to run as an Independent. He
denied the insinuation that he had ad-
vised q bolt when the Sumter delega-
ton was unseated in 1890, but admit
ted that he was very angry. He had,
however, refused the next day to run
as an independent and had refused to
support Haskell. Dargan tried to ask
Earle some questions, but Earle con.
temptuously ignored him. Evans and
Duncan spoke as usual. Earle and
Evans were both cheered but the ma
iority of the crowd seemed to be with
Evans.
