UTAH MINES CLOSED.
Decline in Silver Forces the Ontario and
DAILY to Shut Down.

A special to the Salt Lake Herald
from Park City, Utah, Aug. 9Th
says: Superintendent Chambers OF
the Ontario and DAILY mines to-day
received a telegram from New York
to close down both mines at once
owing to the recent decline in silver
These are two of the largest silver
mines in the state and give employ
ment to about 700 men,.
The Ontario mine is one of the
great producers of the country. 1t
has been in active operation for 20
years and has paid about $l3, $780,
900 in dividends.
1t is claimed these mines cannot
be worked with profit at the present
price of silver.
The Park City Record says it is
given on the best of authority that
the Ontario mine has not looked
SO we'll in years as it does to-day.
The ore bodies blocked out are vast
and rich, but the company feels
that to work them out at the present
price of silver would be worse than
foOlhardv.

EX-COnfederate Pensioners.

A dispatch from Little Rock,
Ark, Aug 10th says: Applications
for pensions for INDECENT and dis
abled ex Confederate soldiers and
their widows are pouring into the
State Auditors Office, indicating
that an increased number of the
veterans are suffering for the neces-
sites of life in their declining years.
Last year only $35: 700 was avail
able for pensions, and the result
was that each pensioner in the ap-
portionment received but 81 per
cent of the allowance by the State
Pension Board. This year the fund
is larger by reason of the fact that
the recent Legislature appropriated
$50, 900 per year for pensions. the
amount being derived from the
quarter of a mill tax for that specific
purpose.

The Boise Call Expires.

The Semi Weekly Cali, of the
Capital City that succeeded the
Evening Mail, has suspended for
lack of patronage sufficient to meet
the running expenses and its former
proprietors have gone to the hills
for a few days recreation. In COM
menting on its suspension the
Boise Democrat says: The old
transmitter of thought. president
maker, democratic party rejuvena-
tor, palladium of liberty and des-
tiny shaper, is again out of COM
mission with both tires punctured
and sprockets clogged and waiting
for some other scorcher to come
along with wind enough to start her
going. The men who have had
control of the plant from start to
finish have been good writer's and
business men, but each had to quit
when his money run out because
he could not continue on the patron
age received.

,ngressman Joseph H. Walker

Congressman Joseph H. Walker
of Massachusetts is a member of
the Board of Trustees of Brown
University. Mr.. Walker seems to
take pride in the fact that he started
the trouble at Brown University
which resulted in the removal Of
Professor Andrews, President Of the
University. Prof. Andrews views
on the financial question differed
with those of the corporation and
he was given the alternative of ad-
vocating the single gold standard,
in which he did not believe, or re-
signing the Presidency of the Uni
versity. Being sincere in his con-
victions that the best interests of
the country would be subserved by
the use of gold and silver as money
and that the minis should coin
both metals on equal terms for the
public, he left the University.

The Boise Sentinel says:

The press of Idaho has suffered keen
humiliation at the hands Of the KErcHuN
KEYSTONE, when that paper in q recent
Mrs. Gov. Steunenberg.
Is that so, Mr.. Walton7 Then it
isn't the first time that the press of
Idaho has been humiliated. We re-
member very distinctly that the
Sentinel in its career has more than
once "humiliated" the state press
by certain articles in its columns,
and upon one occasion it disgraced
the press of Idaho, not by any caus-
tic criticisms either, but by the
most obscene articles.
Then the Sentinel goes on to
quote from a secondhand book Of
etiquette as follows:
The essence of gentility among men IL
shown by courteous respect tor the
dress and feelings of every gentlewoman,
however iowly or however exalted po-
sition that woman may occupy.
Fancy, Frank Walton, man who
has been published in the state
press as a Tin horn gambler" pos
ing as a Lord Chesterfield 1.-THE
most elegant. gentleman in all Eu-
rope" and administering rebuke
to the KEYSTONE for alleged dis
courtesy to "gentlewoman" We
were reared in the sunny south,
that land of chivalry where the
essence of gentility" flows freely
and fully understand the lofty de-
gree of courtesy with which lady
should be treated. In the case of
the KEYsToNE's article that has
created such furore, however, we
beg to inform the Sentinel that it
was not a mans criticism of Mrs.
Steunenberg's style of dress, but a
woman's. Take another cigarette,
Mr.. Walton to quiet your nerves.

A Mountain of Gold Ore,

A special from Boise to the Salt
Lake Tribune Aug. 10th says: Two
prospectors have come in from the
middle fork of the Salmon river, Il
section that has never been explored,
bringing a quantity of gold taken
out there in a few weeks work.
The amount of their cleanup was
close to $1,000. An interesting feat
ure of the matter is that this golu
is washed from the decomposed
surface of a mountain which they
declare to be all ore. The mountain
is porphyry. The gold is found all
through it. They do not claim the
rock is high grade, but they assert
that it is ali good pay. They have
been at work there several seasons,
making small clean-ups each year.
They have taken up lode claims
and are working the surface as
pIacers. The mountain they call
Thunder mountain. The streams
on which they are located is called
by them Mule creek. 1t empties
into Monumental creek and the lat
ter into Big creek, which flows into
the middle fork of the Salmon. II
the mountain is anything like as
rich as the men represent, the dis
covery is one of the most important
ever recorded in the West.

KLONDYKE CHARMS WANING.
Many Gold Hunters Said to Be Disgusted
and Turning HOmcwaxd.

A dispatch from Seattle Aug. 18th
says: The steamer Rosalie arrived
this morning from Dyea and from
the statements of passengers it
seems probable that large number
of people who started for the Yukon
will return without having gone
further than Dyea or Skaguay.
1t is reported on good authority
that outfits are being sold for almost
nothing and the disguised Klon.
dikers are arranging TO come home
as fast as possible.
Several were passengers on the
Inflated Mexico and 20 or 80 men
have returned to Juneau. Between
$500 and 1000 miners are now en-
camped at Dyea. They have or
ganized to keep down the packing
rates and are doing everything pos
sible to get over the pass.
The rate of 20 cents per pound
from Dyea to the head of Lake
Bennett has been decided on by the
miners organization and no one is
allowed to pay more.
This step was made necessary ow-
ing to the fact that men with money
were on the ground and offering a S
high as 30 cents per pound in some
cases to get their goods across. Poor
men were left behind and something
had to be done.

The steady fall in the prica OF
silver is causing a vast deal of ap-
preaension to large majority OF
people in this country. There is
an impression that the price will
60 to less than so cents and at such
figures silver mining will be at an
end. In Utah two Of the greatest
silver producers in the state, the
Ontario and DAILY mines, that have
been in active operation for twenty
five years, have closed down, the
manager declaring that even with
silver at 60 cents the mines could
not be worked and pay expenses.
Thus in the town Of Park City
alone 900 men are thrown out of
employment and the town deprived
of its support. Those mines that
produce lead or gold with silver
will be able to continue operations
with silver at such prices, but mines
that yield nothing but silver are
bound to become worthless. The
Republican administration has leg
islated to enrich the trusts at the
expense Of The public and to close
down our silver mines, thereby abol-
fishing one of the most important
industries in the Western States.
The volume of money is decreased,
commodities have risen in value
and the masses in consequence will
suffer to such an extent that there
is certain to be revolt against the
political party that passed the law
which made dearer all things the
consumer is bound to buy. without
doing anything to increase the abil-
ity OF the consumer to-. purchase
the necessar!es Of life. a.

NO DEMAND FOR SILVER.
Mint Director Preston Makes Gloomy Pre-.
dictions for the White Metal.

A Washington dispatch, August
9th, says Mint Director Preston was
asked in an interview to-day, How
do you account for the recent de-
cline in silver?"
"Simply the lack of demand for
it," said Mr.. Preston. Il see no
future for silver whatever. 1t is
my honest opinion that within six
months silver will fall to 40 cents
an ounce. There is no demand for
it anywhere. China is not buying
any. japan is out of the business
and there seems to be no demand
for 1t in any country to any extent,
even for use as subsidiary coinage.
ut is true that in the bazaars of
India it is traded in as merchandise,
but the famine and hard times in
that country have reduced the de-
mand to a minimum.
1.-The output of gold is steadily
increasing. [ think that the worlds
production for this year will be
about $24O,OO0,0O0. The United
States will contribute about $780,
100000 to the supply. l base my
predictions of an increased worlds
output upon the fact that the supply
has not fallen off in any country.
Here comes the Klondyke now
with still further additions to the
gold supply of the world. The ex-
tent of the Klondyke output is
problematical, depending largely
upon climatic conditions"

Pumped Him Full of Air.

A Pennsylvania boy recently used
his baby brother for a pneumatic
tube. The mother heard peculiar
noise issuing from the porch of her
residence, aud upon investigation
found her two little boys, one seven
and the other a year old, in a cor
ner of the porch, the baby lying
fat on his back while his brother
with bicycle pump inserted in his
mouth was filling him full of wind
as fast as he could work the pump
handle. The infant was unconscious
ard Its little stomach was inflated
like a ballon. The mother pulled
the tube from the child's mouth and
the air escaped with a sound like
the airbrake on a railway train.
The baby recovered consciousness.

The Nevada Journal propounds

The Nevada Journal propounds
the following query:
If the United States government can
pass q tariff law without the aid or con-
sent CT any nation on earth, why can't it
create u silver coinage law with the same
independence
ut can" is the answer that most
readily suggests itself, but it won't
for the reason that a tariff makes
the rich trusts and syndicates richer
and the poor poorer, while free
coinage law would exert an opposite
effect.
