REPUBLICAN PROMISES.
They Have Been Strictly Kept and No
Room for Fault Finding is Left.

Boston Herald, Ind. Dem
The assurance which the Republicans
speaking rs party gave to the sound
money voters of the United States in 1886
are to be found explicitly set forth in the
currency plank adopted at the ST. Louis
convention. 1t was on this plank that the
pssty took its stand when it appealed to
the honest sentiment of the country. 1t is
by this that its performances are to be
Judged. Has the party fallen in any res
pect short of the promises which it made
to the American people at st. Louis with
regard to the currency?
All the silver and paper currency has
been maintained at absolute parity with
gold, and maintained, we may add, with
much less disturbance of business and &
much greater feeling Of security in fnan-
cial circles than existed at any time under
the previous administration. In the st.
Louis plank the Republican party pro-
claimed its opposition to the free coinage
of silver except by international agree
ment with the leading commercial nations
OF the world" binding itself to promote
such an arrangement and to preserve the
existing gold standard until an inter
national agreement could be obtained.
Well, every word Of this promise has been
carried out to the letter, so far as any
power of ful6llment has lain with the Nc
Kinley Administration.
A vast majority Of the Republican patty
sincerely believe that the greenbacks are
the best form of paper money ever known
in the United States, infinitely superior
to the bank notes that the gold Democrats
desire to substitute for them. In that belief
they have, we hardly need say, the sincere
support of the Herald" For the gold
Democrats to seek to impose their currency
policy in regard to the retirement of the
greenbacks upon the great Republican
party looks to US very much like an attempt
of the tail to wag the dog.

were battling for Wise?

THE Roanoke Times remarked that the
great curse of Virginia is too much politics,
and thereupon the Richmond Times re-
marked: cit is the great curse of the
whole country" We will extend the
thought, that tits too much bad politics that
is cursing Virginia. 1t is the hands of
demagogues who live by fooling the people
into the belief that they can only be saved
from ruin by permitting these demagogues
to control the State.

Would it not be funny if Pat McCaull
should be elected Governor Of Virginia
next Tuesday. No Democrat expects
such thing to occur and no Republican
en!ertains any hope for such a result.
Stranger things, however, have happened.
If the Republicans were united and there
was full turnout on the End of Novem-
Der, victory would perch on the Repub-
lican banner.

THE remarkable advance in the price of
wool in the past few months is very ell
couraging to the sheep raisers of the
country. We will never see any more
twelve cents wool in the United States,
unless the people are foolish enough to put
the free-trade Democracy in charge of the
government again.

In spite of the incipient storm without

at the corner of Sixteenth and Logon

THE EMANCIPATION.
A Rich Strike Made in the Big Nine at
Sunshine,

The Emancipation mine at Sunshine
is in magnificent ore. Tuesday, the
stopers in the 100 foot level, northeast.
encountered vein of almost solid syl.
vanite, six inches thick, that assays fully
$4,000 per ton. One of the former own
ers of the property declared yesterday
that it was the most phenomenalIy rich.
strike ever made in the Emancipation
Western Slope properties. Specimens
of the ore weighing several pounds were
brought down by Superintendent Lang
ridge and were the admiration of. those
who were permitted to examine them.
The writer visited the mine recently and
was taken through all the, workings and
shown the immense veins of, mineral ex-
posed throughout. At one point in the
100 foot Level the mlneralized vein mat
ter containing high and low grade ore
measures over II feet between walls and,
in the stope just above this huge crevice,
was discovered the present marveIously
rich ore, and such body of it that
great excitement prevails among the old
miners, who claim they never saw any
thing like it before.
That we may better understand the
value of the mineral found IN this vein a
brief statement may be in order, giving
results of shipments made. The first
class selected was sold at the rate of
$4,000 per ton, second grade $40 per
pound, third class 80 ounces gold to the
ton, and the fourth grade (mineralized
dump stuff) runs s2I per ton by the wagon
load. Fron the above figures pretty
fair estimate of the values contained in
the vein matter may be formed.
The property furnishes employment
for about 80 men, while three men are
constantly asserting the ore furnished
from the 100 foot level, which has been
cleaned out and retimbered for extensive
mining operations. Other men are clean
ing out the lower levels and making
ready breaking ore, which will add very
materially TO the output of this great
property. The new hoistlng plant con-
sists of double action 3o-horse power
engine and 5o-horse power boiler, en-
closed by shaft house 24x52 feet, which
includes the blacksmith shop and assort-
ing benches. Teams are kept busy
hauling ore to the Chamberlain sampling
works, where car load of the precious
mineral stands ready for shipment.

ing and they are plunging deeper and
deeper into debt. These 80 counties
contain about 5000 square miles. They
are in the typical arid region and were
settled in the boom railroad days. They
now contain but remant of their former
population, and at the last election cast
less than 28 900 votes. Lands which
once sold rapidly for $50 an acre will not
now bring IS cents an acre. Many once
fourishing towns are now nearly desert
ed. The expense of maintaining county
governments is enormous, and in many
counties money has been borrowed to
pay county officials, while the interest on
bonded debts goes on piling up. 1t is
urged that this proposed consolidation
would make four strong counties, that
expenses would be reduced, taxation
would be very much diminished. There
is no constitutional objection TO the bill
and it will receive earnest consideration
when it comes before the general assem-
bly,, but what will be done with it of
course cannot be predicted,
