Manager Huntley, who was out on a
business trip, last week says, that
while on the cars coming east from
Baker City he met an acquaintance, a
prominent mining man, who has re-
Gently been in Rossland, and spoke
very flatteringly of the mining outlook
in British Columbia. In their CONVEX
sation Mr.. Huntley asked him what
other districts, in his opinion, were
coming TO the front. The gentlemans
reply was, that from what he could
learn, Owyhee county presented better
opportunities than any other section
of country and that it was his inten-
ton to visit Silver City and DeLamar
in the near future to look for invest
ments. This shows this section is at
tracing attention alth oueh not adver-
tised like other districts which are
trying to create boom. The weekly
and monthly output of our campsis
doing the work for us which other sec
lions are trying to do by specious
write-ups.

viii There be Another strike Hereq

Last Wednesday a notice was posted
at the DeLamar mines that on and
after February l, the wages of miners
and carmen would be 50 and timber
men $3.50 per day. The miners upon
receiving this notice at once asked for
lay-of for the shift going to work
that night, and called a special meeting
of the Miners Union for consultation.
What their decision will be in regard
to accepting the cut has not yet been
made known.
Mr.. Huntley, the Companys man
ager, informs the NUGGET that the cut
was made upon imperative orders re-
ceived from the president of the COM
pany in London. The mines, he says,
are now in shape that they will not
be ma terially damaged while remain
ing idle and that they will so remain
before the company will pay higher
rate of wages than Union miners are
receiving at the other big mines in this
county. The proposed cut brings
wages to the figures paid at other
mines in this county and it is unfair
for the miners here to demand more,
as this is one of the dryest, best ven
tilated and safest mines in the county
for miners to work in.
The miners, without saying anything
indicating whether they are inclined to
accept the cut or not, say that they |
cannot do so without first obtaining |
from the head quarters of
the Western Confederation of Miners.
In regard to this matter, the NUGGET
will pursue the same policy it did Oh a
'ormer occasion. 1t will simply re-
port conditions and relate facts as they
occur without advocating the cause or
n claims of either party. At the
anne time its columns will be open to
statements from either
ide as well as to communications from
business men whose interests are in
olved.
We hope to see the matter speedily
nd satisfactorily settled by some
leans, and offer no counsel or suggest
1ns other than TO advise the peace
oving and level-headed men, in and
ut of the Union, to hold any one in
lose check, who proposes any other
nan lawful measures being resorted to.

There are twenty-four states and ter
ritories in the Transmississippi region
and every one of them ought to be
creditably represented by exhibits at
the Forthcoming Transmississippi Elk
position to be held at Omaha in 1898
In these twenty-four states there is not
one that can make better showing of
natural advantages than Idaho. Will
her executive and legislature overlook
this grand opportunity to advertise
her wonderful resources, agricultural,
horticultural and mineral? We have
not yet seen any suggestion looking to-
ward a repres entation at that exposi-
ton.

This year sees in the United States
not only the greatest corn crop we
ever raised, but likewise the greatest
apple crop. There will certainly be
sent to Europe by the beginning of
1897 100000 barrels of apples, perhaps
more. The heavy shipments last four
months, beginning about September l.
A man who has plenty of time on his
hands has been calculating how many
miles of barreled apples we produce this
year. He has found that, if the barrels
were laid end to end around the earth
and back, there would be $1,000 miles
of them, enough to go round the globe
at the equator twice, with 1000 miles
to spare.

A Senator Elected.

1t did not take the unwise members
of the Idaho legislature quite half of
the allotted sixty days of the session
to hunt up an obscure man, with nei-
ther record or ability, and with him
knock out such men as Dubois, John
son and Clagett for U. S Senator The
winner was a very dark horse, in the
person of Heitfelt, of Nez Perez county.
As soon as enough fragments of his BIZ
ography can be collected to make a
paragraph, We will probably learn why
he has been honored with such dis
tinguished position. He is, without
doubt, all right on the question of BIZ
metallism. He was elected yesterday
as the result OF a demo-p conference:

the Legislature cannot pass laws

affecting the Incorporation or organi-
zation, it may pass laws, which will
be general, if they operate uniformly

Act itself. But, when a law is so made
to apply to a class, and not to all with
in the same category, plain reason must
appear for the limitation 1t by no
means follows that a law is a general
law because it operates upon all within
class. 1t is still special, if it applies
to all within a class, without reason
appearing why it is not made to apply
generally to ALL
All laws of a general nature shall

is not inconsistent with the provisions
of the Constitution applying to cities
