property bears the appearance
of a lively location. The stock
pile at present contains about

commence stripping at the Ma
honing mine next week with a
preliminary force of rs men,
which will be greatly augmented
within a short time.-Sentinel.

not interfere to any great extent
with shipping from the pockets.

The Franklin mine was closed
yesterday, and an inventory is
now being taken, for the purpose

transfer of the group to the Car

change would not be- regretted
by the people of Virginia.
The Oliver started stripping

the middle bank. This ore is
taken by the railroad company

week. A crew of 16 men work.

now has control of the property,
new developments are looked

The Virginian of last issue

it's effervescences. General Scott
has not only not closed any such

to Mr.. Scott, however, it is due
to be stated that he was absent

SHOWS THEIR STRENGTH.

In speaking of the "Silver'

says:
THE ticket as a whole is not
received by the rank and file of
the allied forces with the degree
of enthusiasm that was expected
and several of the strong work.
ers in the silver camp have given
the combination the marble heart
and will push the knife in up to
the hilt at every opportunity
that offers. They will not waste
time and energy trying to elect
a ticket that has "defeat" so
plainly written across it's face. "
The above fact, coupled with
the election returns, shows bad
for the republican strength in
the city, although it does not in
dictate the party or parties who
are to blame for the demise of
republican,sm in this section. If
those:same 'several strong work
ers in the silver camp" had not
pushed the knife ever half way,
even, We might reasonably have
expected to have seen Mr.. Shad-
bolt, the only defeated ''silver''
candidate elected along with the
rest, cen though "dcfeat" may
have been written in blood.
The 't1iangle-al alliance" is we'll
satisfied, however, with the man
ner and measure of "defeat" &C.

CONTINGENCIES and conversation
of the individual members of the
"silver" combine.
