Prominent Miner Dead.
Redding, Cal, June calvin Potter,

at Iron mountain.

scene of untold wealth, The exact loca-
ton of the mine is about five miles from
Malta in direct line to the hills. The
discovery was made by two Germans
named Rudolph and Gus Helm, two pros
nectors who for several months past have
been working in the hills and making Il
GOOD living. Meier reports that wash
of six days resulted in 5000 and the indi-
cations are that the mountain will last
for an indefinite period. Indians became
aware of the find and carried the news to
Harlem and the surrounding country
about a week ago. Several parties from
that point started out and found the con
uItions as the Indians had represented.
From Fort Benton comes a vcritication OF
the news this afternoon. 1t is said that
several parties from there have started
for the hills in company with several
residents of the Milk river valley
Red Cloud Mine Sold.
The receiver has sold the Red Cloud
mine in the vicinity of Harley, Idaho, the
property being knocked down. The prop
erty was knocked down at a nominal fig
ure. $500. the purchaser binding himself
to take care of the debt against the mine.
The property was bought in for the stock
holders. These amount to $4,000. a re-
organization is to be effected and the
mine will be thoroughly explored from
the ninth level Above, the property was
very valuable, having paid some 100000
in dividends. The tunnel at what is call
ed the ninth level was run to drain the
mine and open it up at the greater depth.
The vein was not found there, however.
The work now to be done will determine
if the vein goes down to that depth. II
it is found, the mine will again become
one of the heavy producers of the state.
Mil for Warrcns.
JAY 4. Czizek was in Boise the other

enough and four other properties at War
rens and the mill is for the group. The
company was organized by Mr.. CziZek IN
Boston. The machinery will have to be
freighted long distance by team, and
the hauling will be a considerable under
taking. The plant weighs $4,000 pounds.
Seven Devils Country.
There are a good many prospectors in
the Rapid river country on the gold belt
which lies about eight or ten miles east
of here. There are some good gold and
silver lodges in that direction. That camp
is called the Hilderbrand country and
there has been a good deal of develop
ment done on some of the lodges there.

Toledo, June 24.-The republican state
convention has completed its work. While
there had been hard fight for two days
for control of the state central commit

contested elections were decided in favor
of Dick candidates, and this showed the
state committee stood II for Dick and
four for Kurtz. Senator Hanna was not
only congra tulated on the result, but all
the delegates were seeking Abundance to
his apartments for conferences.
The mention of Hannas name was
greeted with a loud demonstration Han
ma was called for. He said the repubr-
cans had been warned this was a dan
gerous year. He joined in accepting the
challenge. The opposition will revive free
silver in Ohio, but never again free wool.
The senator paid high tribute to the
presidents efforts to bring about pros
perity.
The following nominations were made;
Governor, Asa Bushnell; lieutenant gov
ernor A. W. Jones; supreme judge, j. F..
