An estimate of the cattle receipts
at the Jour great markets-Chicago,
Kansas City, Omaha and st. Louis
for the first six months of the present
year places the number at over 3
573, 900 head, which corresponds close
ly with the figures for 1897. Chicago
receipts from Texas show a remark
able decline in recent years. For the
past six months they were only SO,
600 head, compared with over 1856 900
head during the first half year OF
1896.
The Montana Well Drilling Co., is
sinking a well for the county, i'm the
rear of the jail. Tuesday a depth of
sixty feet had been attained and
water was within three feet of the
surface. This looks like a good start
toward an artesian well if the
people of Lewistown feel disposed to
help the scheme along. A good flow
ing well would be a great boom to
the town. AS Lewistown grows one
half of the wells now used would be
unsafe owing to impurities from
seepage. Aside from the advantage
found in it's use for domestic pur
poses the pressure would be strong
enough to be of great service in case
of fire. 1t is a matter which should
interest our citizens.

DAVIS COUNTY is FOR ROLAPP
STATE CONVENTION DELFGA-
TIoN WILL BE SOLID.
Will Be Divided On Congressman
Judge King at Coalville-More
Anti-Roberts Delegates In Cache.

.Kaysville, Sept. 5.-There is no flag
ging in the enthusiasm manifested in
Davis county over the candidacy of
Judge H. H. Rolapp for the associate
justiceship of the supreme court. The
Democrats here denounce the Repub-
lican organs attempt TO create re-
ligious controversy, and the idea that
two Mormons upon the state ticket
would weaken the Democratic cause
is regarded as absurd Judge Rolapp
is now and will be the choice of Davis
county for the supreme bench. The
Democratic party wants him there be-
cause his abilities are such that he
will do honor to the party and to the
state in that high position. No man
can be more popular than is Judge Ro-
lapp in those parts of the state where
he has offfciated as district judge, and
his name on the state ticket will make
it stronger.
Davis county will undoubtedly di-
vide her vote on congressman, in case
w. H. King cannot be induced to &C
cept that nomination, but a solid Is
votes will be recorded in favor of Ro-
lapp when the supreme court judge
ship comes up.

The Iron Crown Mine.

DR.. 4. J. Lanterman of Buena Vista,
Colo. who has been chasing bonanzas
all through this western country for
the past two or three years, is in the
city from Cripple Creek, which camp.
he states, is steadily increasing its ore
output, While conditions there are more
favorable than for several years past.
DR.. Lanterman is on his way,
and will leave tonight for the Iron
Crown mine on NewSome creek, in
Idaho. not far from Elk City, and he
has no hesitation in saying that in his
70 years experience in mining this is
the hest mine he was ever connected
with.
The Iron Crown is a free milling gold
proposition, the vein averaging about
five feet in width, and ranging in value
about $50 in the precious metal to the
ton. and the doctor further states that
he has now enough of this grade and
class OF ore to keep a mill in constant
operation for five years to come, the
vein being of the blanket variety, and
only lying few feet below the surface
OF the ground.
The distance from the railroad is the
only drawback in connection with the
mine, but after weeks of toll and labor
he has succeeded in hauling the ma
chinery for two Kincaid mills to the
property, and it was the expectation
that these two plants would begin the
trea tment OF ore and the recovery OF
gold on Wednesday of last week.
In the same locality extensive placer
opera tons were conducted years ago,
and in doing this work the ledge on
which the doctor expects to realize a
fortune in the near future was ex
DCSed

WASATCH COUNTY POLITICS.

1o%,

|. Heber, Sept. 5.-The political situa-
ton is the all-absorbing topic on the
streets. The county Democratic con-
vention is to be held tomorrow. The
Heber delegation to the county con-
vention will meet in caucus tonight.
It is said the condition of Wasatch
county for the next two years depends
upon the stand taken by the delegates
of Heber. The general impression is
that there will be great change made
in the officials of the county.
There is considerable talk of running
James w Clyde for the Legislature
Mr.. Clyde is a good, practical man, a
successful cattle raiser and farmer,
and is pretty well acquainted with the
needs of the people. He would make a
good legislator.
There is very little being said re-
speeding the different candidates for
congress. 3. H. Roberts has a great
many personal friends in this county,
and of the material so far put forth as
candidates for congress we are strong
ly of the opinion that the Wasatch
county delegation will be apt to cast
its full strength for the blacksmith

Mines of Susanville.

Democrat, Baker City, Ore: Elk
creek of late has been the scene of
lively mining operations. The company
having charge of the Badger group of
mines, with Messrs. De Witt and Nc
Clane as superintendent, is pushing
work not only on the erection of the
new mill on the Badger, but also in de-
veloping the ledge on the same prop
erty. They have had a large force of
men at work during the past two
months, and during the past two weeks
have given work to 20 or % men. The
machinery for the new mill is all in,
and is being put in place as rapidly as
possible, and will soon be ready for OPP
Grafton.
Teams that they employed in hauling
freight from Sumpter have all been
loaded back with rich ore sent out for
shipment to the smelter at Tacoma. A
large quantity of the ore has been
freighted TO Sumpter during the past
three weeks. To the casual observer
about the Elk creek mines, it appears
the Badger Mining company means
business, and their operations alone
will put many a dollar in circulation in
and about this vicinity.

The La Cigale Rooster.

In speaking of the furnace and roast
ing plant now being installed at the La
Cigale mill, on the west dip, Charlie
Scheu states that the machinery is
daily arriving on the ground, and that
the additions to the equipment of the
plant will soon be in place.
The capacity of the rooster will be
100 tons daily, although the capacity
OF the furnace is such that more roast
ers may be put in whenever required,
the capacity of the teaching tanks of
the mill being something over 300 tons
every "a hours.
The ores of the La Cigale will not
require the same treatment as the ar
senical ores of the Golden Gate, all
that will be required being that the
mineral be baked or calcined in order
to eXpel the L.oisture, as there is hard
~ any base in the product of the mine.
With the La Cigale mill running sue
cessfully and the Daisy mill turning
out cyanides, and active work being
pushed in the development of the
Omaha, there is no reason why times
should not be lively on the west dip
