ROBINSON MINING DISTRICT.
What is Done at the Present Time
AND How Some ofItS Mines
Look.

Very little I can add to what has
already been said as far as our mines
are concerned. But few words about
those who are working their mines
wi | be of some interest.
The Chairman mine as [ find it at
the present time looks very big indeed.
The body of ore recently uncovered
through the energy Of the company is
bonanza, and gives every indication
of going to great depth. The com-
pany drifted on this body of ore about
ITO feet, and sunk on it about 40 feet,
and it is getting bigger and bigger all
the time. This mine has immense ore
bodies inside. And it is only mat
ter of time when this will be all work
ed.
Walking about 1000 feet in an east
erly direction we come to claim
called the Millionaire. Messrs. P.
G, Weber and Joe Moore are the own
ers of this promising mine. The ledge
runs in Northwesterly and South
easterly direction and is quiet extern
sive. Washes produced from this
mine are very fattering and big. The
richest washes are found in decompos-
ed iron. The Millionaire has lime
stone foot wall and iron for hangiLg
wallis. The blue quartz in this claim
is the same as found in the Chairman
and Joanna and other mines in this
District and is within the gold belt.
Mr.. Peter G. Weber has done con-
siderable prospecting lately, and if
any one deserves su cess in finding a
rich mine it is the Boss.
Travelling in westerly course from
the Chairman mine we landed at the
Boss of Nevada mine. This mine is
owned by Messrs. A. Riepe, A. Nit
chel and Mrs. Therese Riepe. It has
two different lodges one of gold and

Suppose the purchasing power of
every dollar in the world were instant
~ doubled. No sane man would claim
that the wealth of the world would be
doubled. 1t would contain just what
it does now, and nothing moro. 1t
would support just as many human
beings as now, and no more. But
it would make a vast difference in the
distribution of that wealth. The man
whose wealth was all in money would
be twice as rich as before: the man
whose property was mortgaged for
half its value, would be ruined.
There being onlya given amount of
commodities in the world, if the monied
classes could command twice as many
it follows with unerring certainty that
other classes must be able to command
less.
The effect would be the same as
doubling the size of the measure by
which the rich man buys his goods.
In fact, it is the same thing, for a
measure of value is also measure of
"t'quantity. If beef is 10 cents
pound, it is immaterial whether we
ask for pound or 10 cents worth.
In each case we mean the same thing.
Whether We double the pound weight
or double the 10 cents in given trans
action the effect is the same.

equal footing, buying and selling

abolished after all. The question
was fully discussed by sub committee
Of the committee of appropriations,
which has in charge appropriations
for the treasury department, and Di-

of the other treasury officials gave it
as their opinion that the mint was a

The committee seemed to share tlGiC

runs east and west. Some very good
washes have been taken from til
mine and assays as high as S22 III
g Id and silver. The copper ledge
runs NJ rth and south, and assays fully
20 PSF cent and is about so feet wide.
The formation is porphyry and iron,
and whenever the two different lodges
JONES and the contact is made they
will undoubtedly have bonanza. The
mine is worked at the present time and
looks very promising There are
very few mines in the district which
can show any such two distinct Lodges.

mine will be one Of the largest pay

see the mine in such fine state; in
deed it looks big. The ledge runs
North to South and there is about
3 feet of nice paying ore. The ledge
is well defined The hanging wal is
porphyry, while the foot wall is lime
stone mixed with some iron. The ore
averages about 20 per cent in copper
and in short time the owners will
have nice paying proposition. They
are also the owners of the Combination

good showing on his claim. The ledge

is about 3 feet wide; the ore averages
above 20 per cent and is of easy smelt

THE ENGLISH FARMER.

And now we are treated TO the spec
tacle Of the English farmer crying for
the re-enactment of the corn law. in
short for protection in the way of a
tariff or bounty. AS the soil of Eng
land cannot anywhere nearly produce
sufficient food for the people, food must
be imported, and tax upon the import
ed food must be added TO the price the
consumer pays, which would enable the
British farmer TO advance his own
prices. The government is in the
hands of the conservatives. and the
cry of the English farmer is deubly
earnest. But there will be no protec-
ton for the farmer in England There
are but 10000 in all that land and no
political party would dare increase the
price of food to the millions. In the
meantime British farms are being
abandoned. Mr.. James Long, in an
article in the Fortnightly Review, says
farms are abandoned, the green fields
of former days, peopled as they were
with thriving fiocks and handsome
herds, converted by the rude processes
of nature into a dismal. unproductive
waste, from which even the cottager
has fed as from plague; country
mansions closed or unoccupied by care
takers, their owners no longer able to
sustain the charges which an estab-
lishment entails. while rural laborers,
focking into the towns. further swell
the already swollen ranks Of the I'M
employed" This poverty the writer
goes on to contrast with appalling
commercial wealth" This Is certainly
worse than the condition Of the United
States, principally because land here
represents less capital and a larger
proportion OF tn efarmers here own
tie land and do not have rent to pay,
and those who do rent land can obtain
1t upon more favorable terms

CoNGREssMEN WANT CLERKS.

For some years every senator has
been provided with a clerk or private
secretary whose salary is paid by the
government. 1t first started with COM
mittee clerkships, and as nearly every
senator was chairman OF some COM
mittee every senator practically had a
clerk. These clerks in time were kept
under employment the year round.
But the senate was never willing TO
concede more than committee clerks
for the house who were paid oRly
while congress was in session. Last
week the house made demand for a
clerk or private secretary for each
member. They claim that the repre-
sentatives have more correspondence
to look after, more running about the
departments than have senators. The
house therefore is insisting not only
upon a full quota Of membership clerks
but that they be paid the year round,
so that when congress is not in session
the clerks can remain in Washington
to look after the business of the con-
gresham by whom he is employed.
OF course the house will get what 1t
demands in the end and the people will
foot the extra expense.

A WORTHY KANSAS MAN.

The tests of time and its emergencies,
and the mastery of opportunities, mark
the triumph no less than the profic-
iency of the worthy victor. Every
once in a while some of the younger
men of Kansas having by acceptable
service and unfiinching faith and rec
titude proved their manhood, are seen
successfully rising into deserved prom
inence. A bright example of such a
measure Of manhood is 1. E. Lambert
of Emporia, who in all the various posi-
tons of trust and honor which he as
a comparatively young man has filed,
has never disappointed his friends or
fallen because of foes. In short Lam
bert is a manly man and as true as
steel. In legislatures, In conventions
and in whatever public capacity he
has appeared he has never finched,
sulked or proved unequal to the duties
and responsibilities imposed upon him
by the people of Emporia and of Lyon
county.
We see by his home papers that be
is 10 be made the Republican candi-
date again for representative, in which
connection several papers of the state
have mentioned him as good material
for speaker of the house. The Eagle
desires simply in this connection to
add its testimony TO the worthiness and
competency Of Mr.. Lambert for that,
or for any other position of trust and
honor, where the elements of truthful
ness, constancy and inwrought honesty
are essential qualifications. Before
the time comes southwest Kansas may
have q candidate OF its own. but what
ever way the political wheel may turn
Ike Lambert would make a worthy
and efficient presiding officer and prove
an honor not only TO his home and
PARTY but 10 the entire state

further would be heard of it, certainly
not from the Indian. But the worm
has turned The despised aborigines
comes forward with a protest in the
way of a motion for reopening OF
the case. To his own satisfaction, and
in his own slow and deliberate way,
after the courts had forgotten all about
it. he now finds out, and having con-
Guided declares that no well condition
ed Indian can possibly get along with
less than from two TO ten wives. The
proof is in the pudding itself. One
souaw cannot possibly raise sufficient
corn on a severalty land allotment to
maintain any brave in becoming dig
nitv. And what is an Indian without
dignity? He would be better off with
out a blanket One squaw to raise
all the corn and all the papooses, is a
proposition too ridiculous TO discuss,
and indignation is a feeble word to
be employed for such an afront 10 ma
tive dignity. Not only is the brave
denuded of his dignity by this decree,
but every squaw Inundated. A pitt
full figure indeed would any red war
rior cut who boosted but one squaw,
and who would more keenly feel the
force Of such a humility than the
souaw herself, who thus, in a sense,
becomes as big as her lord, or rather
her lord is reduced to her own level
and it's circumscribed rights. The
next thing will be an order from these
courts that the buck Indian go to work,
himself. in the field, like any squaw.
The thought Of it is enough to make
a hyena weep. One wife indeed, why
a common white man can have one
wife. The appeal for the reopening
of the case should be no sooner heard
than granted, or otherwise it will not
be long at this rate before there Will
be nc Indian problem left to solve.

c1,EvEI,AND's PARTIsANsHIP.

With one stroke of his pen under the
civil service law Grover Cleveland the
other day confirmed thirty thousand
Democrats in federal offices, thirty
thousand of his direct or Indirect APP
pointees cannot be superseded or re-
moved by Republican administrat ton
except for cause. The classified lists
now include S5,315 different positions,
all only obtainable hereafter under
competitive examination, but only as
they may become vacant from death
or resignation. OF this number Cleye-
land has nailed some sixty odd thou
sand. sixty odd thousand people who
will live 10 hold down a federal job
and bless the name of Cleveland as a
patriot, through successive Republi-
can administrations when nobody else
will be living TO remember Cleveland
except to execrate him, his jobs and
deals, his efforts to sustain monopolies
and to give aid and comfort to foreign
potentates. This civil service, which
is patterned after England's may be all
right, and probably tending TO loosen
party ties and lessen partisanshlp
blindness, still Mr.. Clevelands action
in the last year of his power confirm
ing at one time 10000 of his own party
permanently in Office has, to say the
least, somewhat the appearance Of par
tisanship selfshness that Is little short
Of hOggiSh.
