The report reaches this city that
E. M. Martin the freighter who
contracted. to haul a heavy piece of
machinery, 600 pounds to the
Badger mine met with an accident
on Craig's mountain near Lake
Waha. In making that dangerous
turn at the point the team was un-
able to handle the heavy load, the
wagon went back over the grade
and rolled down the precipice.
The ponderous casting, after crush
ing the wagon like an egg shell in
the summersault, broke loose from
its fastenings and went crashing
down the steep hill breaking down
trees and leaping over rocks to the
bottom several hundred feet below.
Even the heavy casting was bro
ken in the descent. The rain had
made the road slippery causing
the wagon to leave the grade in
this dangerous place. \ half doz-
en- accidents and twice that many
narrow escapes are credited to
this bad piece ofroad. The proper
officials should learn of this danger
to the travelling public.

Salt Lake Tribune.
p. l.. Wright of Fort Scott, Kan,
is at the Knu,slord hotel with
samples of ore from the lola mine
at Warrens, Idaho. The owners,
among whom is numbered Mr..
Wright. have done a large amount
OF development work, one tunnel
having been driven in a distance of
475 feet, while another has been
driven 200 feet, in each of which is
enclosed body of free milling
ore that shows very nice margin.
Mr.. Wright says that in his vein
he has from 8 to 80 inches of pay
streak and makes the prediction
that Warrens will be one of the
most energetic camps in all Idaho
within another year. The Bed
Rock Flume Company he reports
making some very extensive ex-
periments at the present time on a
group of placer claims, and should
results prove satisfactory a big
plant will be the result there next
year. Mr.. Wright says there is
abundant opportunity up there for
the prospector and that the camp
promises to be one of the biggest
in the west a few months hence.
He will leave for Kansas today,
promising to return as the season
advances, and is willing to admit
that those who are making a few
dollars out of wheat are willing to
take chance in the digglngs.

The auditors books show that
Lincoln county has paid the state
$224.S2 more than it owed. This
is a strange condition, as the state
taxes, under the act Of 1895, were
assessed against the counties in
lump sums. Lincoln was created
in 1895 and has not paid taxes to
the state excepting under the
revenue act of that year.
Another very peculiar case is
that Of Oneida county. While it
owes the state $1,914,4l in taxes
for the last two years, the state
auditors books show it was over
paid $938.1S on taxes for prior
years. Before the act of 1895 was
passed the state levied a tax of so
many cents upon each 800 Of
property. The amount due from
each county was figured up from
the assessment roll.
But prior to Jan. I, 1893, the
books Of the state auditor were in
snch bad shape that they had to be
discarded. A new set was started,
there is great uncertainty about
what is due from any Of the couu.
ties, and State Auditor Anderson
says the books and vouchers will
all have to be checked up to de-
termine the correct figures. The

King Menelek, of Abyssinia, whose
troops have recently given the Italians
q trouncing, is much more civilized than
Americans suppose. Several years
ago the king asked Massala, the Italian
envoy. to secure him SEEMING machine,
OF which he had heard. The machine
arrived in parts, and the envoy had it
carried to the palace with much pomp.
Then IN unexpected difficulty was en-
countered. No one could put the parts
together. and after days work Massala
had to give it up. The king smiled
good-naturedly, and ordered the parts
taken to his room. He worked all

j. H. futile of this city has just
returned from jaunting trip in q

country, going as far as Dixie,

cultural and mining countries.

the dahO-ComstOck mine, in the
Dixie district, 30 miles southeast
Of Elk City, and east of Florence.
This property is chiefly owned in
Spokane. 1t consists Of Is claims,
and a large amount of develop
ment work has been done on them.
A shaft has been sunk 10 feet.
There are 500 tons of rich ore on
the dump. The mill is up and the
building all constructed. The
mine will soon be working from IS
to 25 tons a day.
"There are many other good
properties in the district, among
which is the Great Eastern group,
which is well developed, with $50
tons of fine milling ore on the
dump. A 200 foot working tun-
mel has been driven. This prop
erty consists of five full claims.

mine wants is stamp mill.

A Serious Charge.

Senator Chandler directly char
ges that clause of great impor-
lance to the commercial interests
OF the whole country was stealthily
and fraudulently inserted in the
new tariff law. He intimates that
this fraud was perpetrated through
the trickery of some clerk in the
employment of the Senate or House
committee having to do with the
preparation and engrossment of the
new tariff bill. This is serious
charge.
The "New York World" refer
ring to the charge of Senator Chan
dler, says: at is so much cheaper
to bribe an engrossing clerk OF a
single member of either House
than to buy a bill through Con-
gress, that the 'slipping-in' process
is not at all to be tolerated."
1t is unfortunate that an oppor-
tunity should be be given for such
an ugly comment in connection
with the new tariff law. The facts
may not fully justify so caustic
criticism, but it is to be regret
ted that the Senate has especially
exposed itself to this sort of fire by
permitting the Finance Committee
to commit in whole or in part the
important and delicate work Of
drafting a new tariff measure to
the paid agents Of commercial and
trade bodies. Such services are
not required and should not be ac-
cepted, whether offered gratui-
tously or not.
1t is to be hoped that in the flu
ture this evil will be abolished.
No one should be employed by any
committee of Congress having SO
sacred a work to perform, or al
lowed desk room in such q COM

the ground and give a race with
fall to better run of the gravel.
They have opened the cut with
their canvas pipe to distance Of
1000 feet towards the old workings.
In this distance they have taken
out the best of pay right along
and have opened up bed of eight
feet Of gravel on level piece OF
bedrock which yields from Is to 30
cents a pan. From where they
are now working the bedrock rises
more abruptly to where the old
diggings are. This property was
recently bonded for s25 900 but the
bond has now lapsed. The ground
is good to produce half a million
dollars.

John Clare has some interesting
placer property. There is not a
sign Of wash gravel, but between

8 feet apart is Il bed of soft ruby
slate, fine pieces of quartz and
soil which pays from grass roots to

operation it continues up the
mountain side and below it pitches
off deeper and wider. Water is
scarce but Jack has been able to
pipe six weeks each spring for the
past three years. This season he
took out 5000 in 10 days and last
year took out 500 in % days.
Some of the small pieces of quartz
sprinkled through the mass are, two
thirds gold. He has two claims

Fred Ault has similar claim

with another man clearing for next

each fall to cut down and burn the
timber on piece of ground large
enough to last next seasons water
