be crushed. All kinds Of roots should
be fed sparingly at first until ac-

The cyanide process is to be intro duced at the Union mine, near Ph9nix.
 Mohave Miner: The Nighthawk mine continues to turn out big pro- duct of rich ore monthly. McMahon's lease Is looking better than ever and his chance of making nice little stake was never better.
 Mohaye Miner Wm. Sweeney has taken nine months lease on the Gro Plata and Mariposa mining claims in Todd Basin from J. W. Garrett and will at once put force of men at work to get the mines drained and in shape to take out ore.
 Prescott Courier: A recent visitor in Big Bug district noted many evi- dences of prosperity. Many miners are building new cabins, placer miners are doing well, having an abundance of water, while on every hand quartz miners may be seen at work.
 Silver Belt: The Old Dominion Copper Mining X SmeItng Co.,, is run aing two stacks one of their new, big furnaces and an old 36-ich jacket--and making a large output of copper. A large consignment of coke has reached Geronimo and will be promptly for warded.
 Prescott Courier: It is reported by John Elder that the men employed in developing the Osborne group of cop per claims which are located about ten miles west of the celebrated Nulture mine, have struck large body of gold ore in copper gangue that runs $20 to the ton. Colin Timnons Prescott who holds bond on the pro- perty, is in Europe endeayoring to raise money to place reducing plant at some convenient point to treat the ores.
 Prescott Courier: A miner who came in from Lynx creek last evening stated that Juge Griffin had sold his Fortune mine to the Jersey Lilly com pany for S30,000 cash. That the For tune mine has S50,0O worth of orefin sight which will plate s55 per ton gold. The mine has l50 foot shaft and a vein which ranges from two to five feet in width.

MAJOR JAMES 3. DENNIS.
Favorably Mentioned by Democratic
Papers as a suitable Candidate
for Judge OF the st. Louis
Court of Appeals.

court OF Appears.
We mentioned in a late issue Of the
DEMOCRAT. merely as a news item
that the name of Maj. j. B. Dennis,
of this city, was being frequently
mentioned by the press of Southeast
Missouri as a suitable candidate
for Judge of the St. Louis Court
of Appeals.
The Jackson Cash-Book not long
ago published an article stating
that Maj. Dennis spoke of going to
Colorado. The article had hardly
appeared, however. before papers all
over Southeast Missouri commenced
suggesting that the better thing for
him to do would be to remain here
and be elected to the bench of the St.
Louis Court of Appeals.
The Major is a strong unwavering
Democrat, and, of purse this paper
could, ordinarily, feel no particular
interest in his candidacy. but thetruth
should be told, even about our politi-
cal opponents. and under these cir
cumstances we feel it our duty to say
this much.
Maj. Dennis located h%ereabout 1863.
He is a native of West Tennessee, and
was educated at one of the Synodical
colleges of that portion of the state.
His father had moved to Mississippi
in the early sos, and after completing
his collegiate course he. too went there,
taught school, read law and was ad-
mitted to the bar only Il few months
before the breaking out of the civil
war. He was among the first to enlist
in the rebel army and fought in it
to the close of the war, after which he
returned to Tennessee, resumed the
study of law. and after four years
study located here where he has lived
ever since. He married here and has
three children living, two of whom are
grown young men.
He deserves every good thing hat
the newspapers have said about him,
and more. for he possesses, in a pc
culiar degree, the very qualities nee
to fit him for the Appellate
bench.
The peculiar condition of affairs
just now might give him the nominal
ton if he would make the effort. but
it would be unlike him to push his own
and therefore it is doubtful if
he ever gets there. While we do not
intend to take Il hand in this fight We
say that if he should get thenOm-
ination he will come carer getting a
unanimous vote in this city and
county than any nan that has eyer
been on the State ticket since the war.

Cleveland and the silver Flood.

There are several reasons why the
President makes no attempt to check
the silver wave which threatens to
swamp his party in the coming can
vaSs. First, he is Invested of the re-
soursc. the public patronage. which
enabled him to force many silver
Democrats over to his side in the fight
to repeal the Sherman law in 1893:
secondly. the element to which he be
longs is ~Gcspondent. and perhaps
some OF this feeling has seized him.
and thirdly, he is pretty we'll assured
by this time that Il considerable part
of this silver craze is simply an *
preston of personal resentment to-
ward himself. The last named reason

When the President began his as
sault on the Sherman law in 1893 he
had Il fine collection of offices of all
sorts at his disposal. and for each Of
lice there were at least ten applicants.
The Senators and Representatives who
wanted to control these offices and the
