A CAMP.
That Is What the Activity on Brush
Creek Means.

From j. II. Mullison, who came up
from Steele Monday en- route to Brush
creek. we learned that the activity
there means a placer camp as soon as
the weather opens up in the spring.
1t is called the MonteZuma placer
claim, and the property really belongs
to Mr.. Mullison. who has leased it to
the parties who will work it. having
abundant capital behind them to do 50.
$50, 600 being now to their credit in
Motlitt's bank in Denver. They will
begin next Monday to clear the ground
for next summers work, cutting such
timber into ties and props and other
marketable material as the land will
furnish. Placer mining will be the
order of the day during the summer and
tie chopping in the winter.
Mr.. Mullison says they have 60, 900
pounds of supplies on the way to the
camp now. and expect to employ from
800 to 500 men there all the time. The
wages ofthe camp will be S35 and board
to men employed by the company and
Is cents for ties banked on the stream.
They will establish a monthly pay day
and all will be settled once
every 80 days. The camp will be ready
for choppers next Monday.-Saratoga

PICKETT UNSEATED.
BITTER FIGHT IN WYOMING'S
STATE SENATE.
Election Committee Reports in Favor
of Coleman, and He is Sworn In
Looked Upon as Rotten Job by
Many.
Especial to The Herald.)


Cheyenne, Wyo, Feb. pa bitter
fight was made in the state senate this
afternoon over the adoption of the re-
port of the election committee in the
Coleman-Pickett contest case. which
recommended the unseating of Colonel
Pickett, Democratic senator from Big
Horn county.
Colonel Pickett replied to the
charges, and stated that the committee
made no charges of fraud, but that
the irregularities which occurred in the
Big Horn county vote were the doings
of the Republican election officers.
Senator McGill, leader of the Repub-
licans, made a speech denouncing the
affair as an outrageous scheme upon
the part of certain Republicans who,
by having a majority of the hold-overs,
could pave their way to the United
States senate two years hence.
Senator Cross, leader of the Demo-
Gratis, also made a bitter speech against
the unseating of Colonel Pickett, but in
spite of the rottenness of the scheme,
the whip of the Republican bosses
swung enough men into line to pass
the adoption of the report, and the I'M
seating of Colonel Pickett. The con-
testant, Coleman, was then sworn in.
This is considered by many to be the
most rotten and outrageous piece of
work ever perpetrated in Wyoming
politics, and will kill the Republican
party in this state.
Some Democrats allege that Governor
Richards, who seeks United States
senatorial honors, is at the. bottom of
the scheme, while others assert that
Judge Willis Vandevanter and United
States Senator Clark are back of the
scheme.

Canton, o., Feb. 20.-Major Mckinley
has recovered his health. He put the
finishing touches to his inaugural ad-
dress today, and did a good deal of
work of a public and personal nature.
He had one caller, Senator ]. C. Pritch-
ard of North Carolina, who came to
suggest Colonel James E. Boyd of his
state for cabinet portfolio. Senator
Pritchard said he had a satisfactory
talk with the president-e ELECT, and that
the selection of Mr.. Gary would doubt
less deprive North Carolina of repre-
sentation in the cabinet.
Major Mckinley thinks we'll of Col
onel Bovd,' said Senator Pritchard,
and we are all of the opinion that he
deserves recognition for the excellent
work he has DONE
Colonel Myron T Herrick of Cleve-
land arrived in Canton this evening,
and will spend Sunday with Major Nc
Kinley. Colonel Herrick says he has
heard nothing new regarding the ap
pointment of Mr.. Hanna.
Word has been received here to the
effect that ]. Addison Porter, Major
McKinley's private secretary, has been
i'll with the grip. He will not come to
Canton again, but go TO Washington
the first of next week.
There is authority for the statement
that the president-elect has not Sc
lected an ambassador to Great Britain,
and that the post has not been Offered
to Chauncey NJ. Depew.
The story that Joseph McKenna of
California has been attacked by a
secret order and will not be in the cab
met is without foundation.
Governor Bradley of Kentucky will
be here Sunday.

to some extent this winter over pre-
vious seasons in regard to the kind of
amusements. For years the young
people thought they must have several
dances every week, but this winter the
dance seems to be taking q back seat
for home sociables. This is no doubt
move for the better. as at one time
dancing to the extreme was INDUCED
in here.
Lately several big lots of hogs have
been shipped from this county to sup
ply the Montana markets. The cattle
men of this vicinity also seem to be
doing thriving business this winter.
doing considera bic buying, feeding and
selling at a fair profit.
This week there have been two or
three more deaths from diphtheria in
Brigham. Joseph Merrell lost a girl
and Arthur Munns lost a girl; both
about or 6 years old. The first died
from diphtheria; the other had had
diphtheria but the immediate cause of
its death is thought to have been heart
or brain trouble. The schools may be
closed next week owing to the prevail
ence of diphtheria, There are over
dozen cases in town. The citizens are
much incensed over the fact that peo-
pie having this disease in the family
are permitted to go about on the streets
and to public places unrestricted.
Although the bond required for IL
censed abstractors in Box Elder coun-
ty is enormously high. $4,000, still there
are three licensed abstractors in this
city. Unlike the saloon business here,
the high tariff does not seem to keep
out competition. There is but one sa-
loon in this place of 5000 people, but
that one saloon pays an annual license
of something like $1,000.
1t is thought that the heavy fall of
snow may check the diphtheria; at
east the people hope it may.
