Intcrna. iouaI Mining c. ngress.

The second session of the Interna
tional Mining Congress, organized il
Denver, one year ago, will be held in
Salt Lake City, July 9th to 9th This
is an organization created to promote
the interests of miners, AMI, properly
conducted, may be made of great i'm
portance to all of the west, Its first
session in Denver suggested and recon-
mended several saiutary changes in
our mining laws, and through its delib-
erations it is probable that many alter
ations may be effected in the code and
regulations governing the mining in
terests.
Tne first session, held year ago,
brought together thinking men from
all sections of the country, who discus
sed mining questions and the inter-
change of practical IDEAS has already
brought enough practical results to
create great interest in future meet

Ii is War.

There is little doubt of that now
Both the Senate and the House have
gone step beyond the Presidents
message and nothing will,prevent war
now except the complete backing down
of the Spanish government and its
withdrawal from Cuba. That is the
situation, briefly told.
Well, there are worse things than war.
Let it come and let it go on until the
last vestige of Spanish rule and Span
ish brutality has been wiped off from
the continent.
For nearly four hundred years Span
ish history has been little else than a
recital of wrong, rapine, plunder and
cruelty. Let it not be permitted to
make any further history of treachery
anb hypocracy. Let the destruction
of the Maine remain her crowning in
fanny. Let the war proceed until the
dons, confined to their own peninsula,
with their towering pride humbled,
sink into oblivion and shame.
In the name of the Cross, these in
famous people have carried wretched-
ness and misery te more portions of
the world than all other nations com
bined. The taint of their evil doings
is on them as people. Let their his
tory soon end foreverl

The influence of the woman vote in
the coming election will depend entire
iy on effective organization. We ap.
prehend that the women will act al
most as unit against Objectionable
candidates. The best guard toward a
clean ticket is the vote at the primar-
les. A strong vote at the primaries is
flrst-class sign Of political intelli-
gence. Since the Australian ballot
system. the frauds that were perpe-
trated in the general election have been
prevented in great measure. But the
same safeguards have not been placed
about the vote at the primaries and
the professional wire-puller packs the
conventions and burdens the party
with an Objectionable candidate or the
people with an unworthy official. The
first great work of official reform must
begin with guarding the vote at party
rimaries.-Lewiston Teller.

The Mountain City, (Nev.) Times re-
ports that what has been considered a
porphyry dyke, of no value, in that
camp, has been found to be phonolite,
similar in character to rock in some OF
the famous Cripple Creek mines, and
that numerous assays from it have
shown from 100 to 200 ounces in silver
and from s. to $40 in gold. 1t is at
tracing good deal of attention from
mining men, as the dyke is a large one.
That one time prosperous camp is like
ly to come to the front again.

A New Strike.

A new gold strike has electrified the
people OF Alaska. A man is reported as
taking out 80 pounds Of gold in three
months, 80 miles from Skagway, on Lake
Tagish. A wild stampede followed The
towns OF Skagway, Dyea and Juneau are
almost depopuiated.
IL is said such a rush was never seen in
Alaska before. The two discoverers told
a couple of friends in confidence OF their
great good fortune. These friends were
women. The news spread like wildfire.
Men started outwithout even their Goats.
The trail was jammed with men and
horses, each cursing the other for being
in the way. juneau poured its quota in
to the turbulent stream OF humanity and
q race against time commenced-a race
such as only eau been seen in lands oi
gold when every one is frenzied with the
gold craze. Men, women and beasts
were urged on at killing pace. Those
that dropped by the wayside were
thrown out OF the way and no more
thought Of. Ere this every foot of ground
in that vicinity will have been staked.
Portland people known to be in tn,
tampede well towards the front are At
