4 DEMOCRAT ON STATE MAT
TIERS.
fNewton Enterprise.)


Major Ii. ID. Miles joined the Demo
cratic club Saturday night. Major
Miles has been lifelong Republican,
and as far as presidential tickets are
concerned, is IA Republican still. But on
State and county matters he is one of
the most enthusiastic Democrats in his
adopted State. He is Il retired army
officer and cousin of Major General
Miles, the ranking general of the United
States army. Major Miles has for sew
eral years been interested in North Caro-
lima mineral lands and is now living in
Newton. Major Miles represents Il class
that will poll much larger vote III
North Carolina this year than ever be-
fore. There are hundreds of men
throughout North Carolina who have
been voting the State, Legislature and
county Republican tickets. fusion and
all, simply because they are Republicans
on National questions. But they cannot
endure the doings of the last two Legis-
latures, and the State and county gov
ernments that they have helped to put
in power. They acknowledge that the
State was much better off under Demo
cratic rule. and will help to put the
Democrats back in power in North Caro-
lima.

Her bows could be seen in the distance climbing upon the ice and with her weight breaking it down and opening a way.
 At this strange sight the steamboat men say the people became panic stricken and started for the shore. Strange to say, almost all made a rush for the opposite side from that on which they lived. When the New burg had passed they were exiled from their homes by the foaming waters in the vessels track. Presently some one suggested a pontoon bridge; the idea was quickly acted upon by will ing hands, and the fugitives were en- sbled to return to their homes. The horse trot was indefinitely postponed Notwithstanding the increased lower temperature of the weather of today the Newburg started out for Newburg again today

YUMA COUNTY MINES.
The Development of the King and
 Other Gold Producers There.

Yuma county is a steady producer at full time the year round. New mines are discovered frequently in this great gold region, and no county in the territory is developing bigger mines. The mines of the King or Arizona company, in the Short Horn mountains, the discovery Of Wh1- b was the most sensational strike in Ari- zona, or anywhere else, for many years past, are continually producing sui ficient quantity of wonderfully h1gh grade ore to keep the five stamp mlll at Mohawk in operation. The Yuma Sun says that in the main working shaft on the Homestake claim goes steadily on and at depth of 40 feet from the mouth of the shaft, which is itself in a gully and 15O feet beneath the apex of the hills that rise on either side and through which the ore body runs. has been reached. The bottom of this shaft is now in ore that mills about s4O0 to the ton, not unusual ore for the King of Arizona. The eighty foot level has been run west from the main shaft about fifty feet, and rock worth from $500 to $700 per ton is now heinz taken out Stoping has not vet been begun on this level, but prob ably will be soon. The grade of ore being taken out of it is even higher than the majority of the rock taken ont above from the thirty and fifty foot levels, on which the mill has up to the present time run and made rec ords that have excited the wonder of the mining world. The eighty foot level has also been run east about forty feet to connect with a tunnel running west from the other side of the mountain. The ore in the eighty foot level east is the low grade ore of the mine, and gives from $50 to $40 per ton. The tunnel running toward it from the other direction has tapped a large ore body containing S75 rock From the standpoint of a mining man the mine is now in better condition than it has ever before been, and is being developed systematically. The final system of working the ores ol this great group has not yet beer determined upon, but it is not unlikely that a tramway vii lbe built to Texa: Hill. thirty miles away, and forty stamp mill erected at that point, WherC water and wood are plentiful.

Af- ter leaving her pier at Franklin street. this city, early in the morning she met considerable floating ice until she reached Verplancks Point. From there up the river was completely frozen over with ice of various thick ness.
 Through this the steamer pushed her way valiantly, and no difficulty was experienced until she rounded West Point. From there to Cornwall she had hard fighting. At Cold Spring hundreds of persons were on the ice | engaged in programme of sports. A horse-trot on the ice had been ar ranged as one of the special features.

A. F. Snider of Tucson, an old time Arizona prospector, was in Phoenix yesterday MT. Snider mas prospected in the territory for great many years and is well known in many mining camps. He is the owner of some val reservation.
 'I believe the richest mineral sec tion of Arizona is yet undeveloped, said MT. Snider, "and it lies within the border of the San Carlos reserva- tion. I have prospected all over the territory, but have never seen bet ter mineral district. There is not only gold, silver and copper, but there is an immense deposit of coal there. The Gila Valley, Globe & Northern will run within fifteen miles of the coal fields. The coal there is the best I have ever seen. It has not yet been determined how extensive the deposit is, but that which has been developed is Of the best quality. The coming of the rail- road will no doubt open up these fields, and also the gold, silver and copper resources of the country.
 There is not much work being done there just now by prospectors," |" continued Mir. Snider, "and in fact the country has not been prospected to any extent. The Indians kept prcspectors from working there for many years, but during the past few years a num- Der of prospectors have operated there and found good prospects. l claim that there are better chances of find.n rich mines on the San Carlos reserva- tion than any place I know of in Ari- zona"
