A Big Mining sale.

An important transaction in the
Van Duzer Mining District was the
bonding of Poorman, Kingfsher.
Greenhorn and part of the Midnight
placer mining claims, situated on
the North Van Duzer, Middle Van
Duzer and Lime Creek. These
properties were located by Joseph
August, Charles Hayward. Will
liam Young and others and have
been successfully operated in a
limited way since the date Of loca
ton in 1898. The bond was taken
by Walter Stofiel and the sale of
these properties was consummated
during the past week through Will
liam B. Duvall of Elko to Denver
parties, who contemplate their i'm
mediate improvement This is the
first introduction of outside capital
to district which is exceptionally
rich in placer gold, and which gives
every evidence of making an impor
tant lode mining district as well.
The country is about twenty-five
miles west of Gold Creek and about
40 miles from Tuscarora and is on
the great gold belt which runs
through eastern Nevada out of
Idaho.
The gold is unusually coarse and
from limited placer operations the
nuggets are all the way from the
size of pin head to nuggets weigh
ing $40 or more. Most of the gold
from bed rock has been taken by
hand picking after sluicing, the
operator getting down on his knees
and going over bed rock and pick
ing up with his fingers the Jumps
of gold, into tin cup. So far as
operated the ground has paid from
$40 to $35 per running foot and has
been worked at cost approxima-
ting 50 per foot.
The Van Duzer District has
many of the characteristics of Lead
vile and vicinity, the formations
being all quite similar ores of the
same class and carbonate float be-
ing scattered throughout the placer
debris. The gold has come from
nearby lodes, beyond all question,
and many of the nuggets consist OF
quartz and gold about equal. The
district is abundantly watered by
Van Duzer Creek, Lime Greek and
tributary streams, which even at
this season of the year maintain
strong volumes of water, which can
be easily and cheaply impounded
and put to use through giants.
There are no large boulders in the
soil and the ground can be cheaply
worked. The fall is sufficient to
give best results. The whole district
is full of promise and warrants
thorough exploration by capital and
offers more than usual inducements
of new mining districts. An old
| Californian would feel that the days
of 40 had not yet passed away,
could he visit this gulch and see
the busy operations upon the part
of individuals with rocker, pan and
sluice, by means of which all are
making big pay, ranging from W
to $25 day per man. -lmdepe"d-

The Mckinley administration
will be known in history as the
creator of an era of high prices and
scarce money. These are the con-
ditions most conducive tnthe growth
of trusts and impoverlsnment of the
producers of wealth.
High prices that are the result
of limiting production mean low
wages, for as the opportunities for
limiting production are increased
so also are the opportunities for
controlling the price of labor in
creased. The Dingley bills high
wall of protection will shut the con-
sumner out from the benefits of the
worlds markets and confine him to
a home market constantly narrowed
by operations of the trusts which
are fostered by the BILL
The prohibitive duties levied by
the bill will decrease revenues from
imports to the point of forcing up
on Congress the necessity of en-
larging the list of articles upon
which are now imposed internal
revenue taxes. This means the in
crease of the price of all commodities
of prime necessity without any
compensating increase in the price
of farm products. Internal revenue
taxes do not benefit the producers
of raw materials. On the contrary,
they raise the prices of the manu-
factured article which the producer
has to buy. The farmer, therefore,
will have double the burdens with
out enjoying any of the benefits of
high prices which the bill will
produce.
And the farmer, the artisan and
the laborer will alike share the
hardships of the scarcity of money
which is being enhanced by the
conduct of the Treasury at Wash
ington. In other words, the first
five months of the Mckinley Admin
istration present the grewsome
prospect of unnaturally high prices
for peroid of four years with a
constantly contracting currency.
Such combination of atrocities
was never before imposed upon a
free people. And over it all there
is the consciousness that under
this anomalous condition of affairs
must ensue greater prosperity to
the trusts than was ever enjoyed by
those concerns.
Patriotism and firm faith in the
strength of American institutions
furnish the only hope of meeting
the difficulties ahead of the nation
and of the ultimate triumph of a
free government whose benefits are
equally distributed.

our Glorious system.


able to get work in the free north,
and starving, went into a suburb of
Cleveland, O., laid down in field,
and ate grass and piece of tallow
which he had picked up. He was
a great curiosity, and soon drew a
large crowd whom he wished to
avoid, but they followed and shout
ed after him like the good law-and-
order we'll bred idiots that they
were.
The colored man had not begged,
had not broken the law, but he was
arrested and fined $25 for vagrancy.
His crime had consisted of being
poor-in trying to keep from starv-
ing by eating grass which no other
person wanted. To appease his
hunger they fine him $25
Those idiots dancing around the
starving man, who willingly ate
grass rather than break the law,
remind me Of the scenes in ancient
Rome where men, women and little
children were thrown into the arena
with famishnIg wild beasts, while
the upholders of the same system
monopolistic-gathered around to
see the fun.
The people of the present day are
just as bigoted, just as cruel, just
as ignorant as were the Roman
spectators at the wretchedness they
hooted and yelled at. | say the
citizens of Cleveland, O., or any
other hell-hole of commercialism
that permits the crimes against it's
poor that this case shows-I mean
the citizens who control it's civic
affairs, both plutocrat and pauper-
are worse heathens than the Roman
murderers.
Once there was French courtier
who said the working people could
eat grass. He had grass stuffed
into his mouth, and his contempt
ible corpse was dragged through the
streets of Paris.
Beware, 0 ye hellions of greed!
The poor will not always starve
meekly like this black slave whom
no master would own. The nation
is travelling at breakneck speed to
the cliff of destruction. When
enough men get hungry-look out.

A Kick from Reantown.

have foreseen the awful absurdity
of the wool schedule proposed by
the United States Senate,-a
schedule largely dictated by men
from Ohio, not only grossly, but
wilfully ignorant of the commodity.
There is scarcely grade of car
pet wool except inferior Syrian,
East India filling, and the cheapest
China, that does not cost over 10
cents a pound. The average value
of the woods imported for the ten
months ending April 80 was little
over 1O3 cents pound. By drop
ping the limit to 10 cents, the SEN
ate has not only made nearly all
carpet woods dutiable at 7 cents,
but it has made no carpet woods
dutiable at less than so per cent,
and most of them dutiable at over
80 per cent.
This is not protective duty. We
do not raise carpet wools. Even
seven years ago American carpet
mills used but two million pounds
year of American material. Con-
sequently, the carpet consumer
must pay the increased cost of
material; for the American price
will be enhanced to the extent
of this revenue duty, there being no
domestic competition.
There will be no competition here,
because no civilized American grow
er will raise sheep that yields bad
mutton and but three pounds of
wool, when with no more labor he
can raise merino or mutton sheep
that yields better mutton and from
five to seven pounds of wool.
Thanks to Judge William Law
renee, of Bellefontaine, Ohio, the
price of wool carpets will go up;
and the American farmer will have
chance instead to buy straw mat
tings to keep his parlor warm in
Winter. There will be to that ex-
tent smaller employment for the
workman in the American carpet
mill, and he can buy less food pro-
ducts from the Western farmer.
The Western farmer will not get
any corresponding benefit on his
wool from these Glass III. duties,
for he does not raise that kind OF
wool.
The only beneficiary is the al
mond-eyed weaver of Oriental mat
ting, who must chuckle in his sleeve
at the purblind ignorance of the
chosen chief of the National Asso-
citation of Wool Growers, and the
wonderful docility with which
United States Senators writhe into
line under the lash of that gentle
mans whip.-Boston Commercial
Bulletin.
The Sacramento Bee says the
man who thinks the International
Monetary Commission will be sue

of feasting off sea lion at the North
Pole are far better. England has

metallism than Tom Watson has of
