THE ROCKFORDs DEFEATED.

The ball game Saturday between the
Rockford and Belding mines on the
home grounds furnished enjoyable
sport for those who witnessed it. There
were plenty of hits made so as to try
the fielding ability of both sides and
also there were errors in abundance
for both sides. Belding secured big
lead in the fore part OF the game which
placed them on easy street, but at the
end of the seventh their opponents
had come within one OF tying them.
They came no nearer however for they
did not again reach the home plate,
while Belding succeeded in scoring
four more runs. The visitors were
very weak in base stealing ability only
having four recorded, against l3 for
Belding. A very pleasant feature was
the entire absence of "kicking.n The
umpiring OF Mr.. Wheeler of Rockford
was very fair and impartial and there
was nary a kick from either side. The
official waa aS fnllpwS.

shouts and good-byes OF 10000 people
Tuesday went to Seattle. | cannot
begin to describe the intensity oil the
Klondyke fever at that point. Men
it, and the city is booming. Hotels
were all crowded. many applicants ioi
rooms turnod away, and three and -four
sleeping in a single room. The mer
chants were doing a business almost in
creditable. Every old thing in the
shape of a miners outfit. has become
merchantable, and goods that had lair
on the shelves for years were in SHARP
demand The Klondike discoveries
seemed TO be drawing men to those
coast cities from all parts OF the coun
try, and so far as my observation went
they were mostly strapping young fel'
lows who could stand endurance oI
most any kind. II those discoveries
continue it is claimed that one-hun-
dred thousand people will try to get
into that region before next June, and
Seattle is bound to be the chief out
fitting point, making that the liveliest
city on the coast.
To my mind there are four cities
west of the Missouri that are bound to
be heard from in the future They
are Denver, Spokane, LosAngeles and
Seattle.
There is great future before this
Pacific coast. With the new tariff law
such as has lately become law, and
the currency question adjusted upon "A
basis of equality and common sense,
we shall see the Pacific coast with the
rest of this great nation go marching
on to greater conquests, and the bril-
liant glories of the passed dimmed by
matchless luster of things yet to be
achieved.
Butte is a city of great wealth. The
Annaconda mine is here which was
sold "A short time ago for forty million
dollars to an English syndicate. The
Butte amount in round numbers to a
million and quarter dollars "A month.
This makes business good and every
thing is lively. This city has not a
tree or a spear OF grass. No signs
keep off the grass" are visible. No
shade whatever. Everything as bare

! see by dispatches that Mr.. Bryan
is enjoying himself in Yellowstone
Park, that being called upon for a
speech said: 81 am not going TO make
you political speech, for everywhere

against me, and as want your votes in
1900, | will refrain from making po-
litical speech. This same paper said
his political friends were doing their
best To get him to go TO Nebraska and
help out the state ticket, which is
purely Populistic. | think his friends
are wise, for 1T is an absolute fact that
his followers in California and Oregon
are diminishing, and his voice has no
weight in the face OF such facts as
have stated. The people tell me those
who were great Bryan men before his
visit are right the other way now.
When he visited San Francisco the
city gilded its public fountain with
pure gold leaf from its top to the base.
Business is better on the Coast than
in the East. They have had good
crop of fruit, which brought good
price, and the crop of wheat is some
thing enormous. Wool has also
brought good price, while hops that
last year would not bring enough for
picking, are bringing IL to IA cents
per pound. All this enables the farmers
to reduce their mortgages, and in many
cases wipe them out altogether. The
Klondyke craze is something wonder

give sharp accounts of having the
fever, it cannot be compared with that

1t was indeed interesting To watch

must earn it by severe hardships and

Col. Fenton Writes Regarding Things In
the Far West.

Most OF our citizens will remember
the genial Col. e. b. Fenton, who was
for "A time connected with the Richard
son Silk Co. OF this city few years
ago. He is now travelling for one of the
largest houses in Chicago, covering
pretty much the entire country, and as
he Is good observer he gathers much
information. The following was writ
ten by him from Butte, Mont, "A few
days ago:
Il have seated myself in my room
before an open window, where | am
getting IA beautiful breeze from the near
by hills. This is the first time | ever
spent Sunday in Montana. 1t is not
from choice, I'll assure you; but am
compelled TO remain over until Monday
to finish business-I never run away
from business. There is great silver
sentiment here; in fact it permeates all
through this state. They are TO have
Mr.. Bryan here next Thursday, and
they are making every effort to give
him warm reception.
Notwithstanding all his rantings, |
believe the whole matter will be settled
TO the full satisfaction OF the reasoning
element OF our population, long before
Mr.. Bryan's name can come before
another National Convention. Ques-
tions of such great Importance are
not to be settled by the brass-band
methods OF Boy Orators, nor by
the bowling OF cranks and incompetants
who are not even able to make living
for themselves and families, let alone
guiding the destinies of "a great nation.
At the very moment that Bryan was
preaching the gospel OF discomfort to
an Idaho audience, VIM. Mckinley was
putting his name to the Republican
tariff bill. This act of the president
was the most crushing answer "A states
man ever made To the speech of po-
litical opponent. Even while Bryan is
telling the American people that there
can be no prosperity without sixteen TO
one coinage, he will find himself in the
midst OF the hum of spindles, the rum
BILE of machinery, the sound of hammer
and saw, the voice of nation tran
sacting the multitudinous affairs of a
busy and prosperous people. These,
added to the enormous quantities Of
wheat bringing good price, and the
millions OF gold coming down from
the newly discovered gold fields, are
liable to dwarf Bryan's hopes for sue

A Grand Success.

Three nights have proved that the
Carnival of Flowers and Kirmess, be-
ing given under the auspices of the
Ladies' Library association, is a success.
All three nights entertainments have
been witnessed by full houses, Tuesday
night especially being crowded. On
that evening more than hundred peo-
pie came up from Florence on a special
train for the occasion.
The entertainments have all been
good and greatly enjoyed. The cos
tunes are elegant and the dances and
marches are well performed. The cal
cium light with its varying shades
adds much to the beauty of the exer-
