fsnecial CORRESPONDENCE

| Eureka, Aug. 22.-So many candi-
dates are bobbing up throughout the
county for the nomination for
the position of county attorney
on the Democratic ticket (the nominal
ton is equivalent to an election) that
Judge Ed Pike states that he thinks he
will have to accept the nomination
again to keep peace in the family.
Silver City is hustling hard in the in
tereSt of Democracy, and all the old
warehouses are putting their shoulders
to the wheel.
The Democratic county committee
adopted resolutions for the guidance OF
the county convention, to be held on
Sept. s. Among others the following
are noted:
That every person whose name is
presented as a candidate for nominal
ton before the convention shall pay
to the secretary $3.50 before his name
will be announced as candidate by
the chairman of the convention.
Every successful candidate for
nomination must, within 20 days after
the date of the convention, pay to the
chairman of the county committee 5
per cent of the amount of the first
years salary for the office to which he
is nominated, and the chairman and
secretary of the convention are pro-
hibited from certifying the nomination
of any person unless they have re-
ceived notice from the chairman of the
committee that this assessment has
been paid.
"All moneys paid by the delegates
and candidates shall go into the treas
ury of the county committee to pay
legitimate campaign expenses.
None of the rules, as to assessments,
shall affect the chairman of the county
committee or member of the state
committee, or delegates to the state
convention.
Any person participating in either
the primaries or convention is, by rea-
son of that fact alone, considered to
have pledged himself to support the
Democratic ticket.

Chairman.

GRAIN AND PROVISIONS.
Heavy Receipts Caused a Break In
Wheat.

Chicago. Aug. 22.-The Liverpool mar
ket was I'D lower before the opening
here than it closed last week That
added to the bearishness previously pre-
vailing and, when just before the session
opened it became known that the days
receipts at Annapolis and Duluth, were
$50 cars, compared with 315 the CORE
spending day of last year. the desire to
sell wheat at the start received a fresh
stimulus. 1t was under such circum-
stances that September wheat opened
with sellers at from 621s down to 62Ss,
compared with e33s at the close Sature
day. AT the decline there was not a
short in the trade but had a good profit,
and it was a most natural proceeding for
a large number of them to at once take
action to secure it From that source
in September to 631s. about half an hour
from the start. The price of September
kept on the rise during the forenoon until
ii struck 631S for an instant. December
kept following September at rs to ~ dis
count under the latter principally at the
heavier spread during the first half OF the
session. AS soon as the most urgent
shorts had covered and withdrawn, how
ever, the market again got dull and weak.
Atlantic port clearances of wheat and
hour since Saturday were smaller than
the recent average. The total was Co.,
go bushels. September closed 3sG12c
lower and December lost CSC.
Brilliant weather, large receipts and
free sales of cash by the country de-
moralized corn. Nearly every one in the
pit had large quantities for sale, and as
a result of the extensive offerings the
trade was thrown into a general con-
fusion. September declined &c.
Oats were firm considering the weak
ness in the other grains.
There was a good commission trade with
the demand largely exceeding the offer
ings. The close was unchanged from
yesterday.
Provisions were comparatively firm
early but finally yielded with grain. There
was quite a pressure on lard and ribs
through prominent commission houses.
Pork left off unchanged, lard 1Oc lower,
and ribs are down &c.

FRED NELSON FOR PROVO.
Will Begin the Publication of a Dem
ocratic Paper There.

ocratic Paper There.
Provo, Aug. 22.-Provo will have a
Democratic paper. 1t was decided upon
this evening. 1t will be known as the
Democratic organ of Utah county. At
present it is not known what its other
name will be. Mr.. Fred Nelson, editor
of the Tintic Miner and the Silver Star
will take charge. The Democratic
county committee met and considered
the matter today, and, after weighing
the respective propositions, decided to
give its support to Fred Nelson. Mr..
Nelson appeared on the streets with a
bright twinkle in his eyes and a smile
on his jovial face, and when asked
about his prospective paper, stated
that while he would still edit his other
two papers, he would push this one to
the front Immediately, make it a per-
manent sheet, not a journal for the
coming campaign alone, but journel
destined to live, make it hot and lively
for opponents, and thrive in spite of all
opposition. A press will be set up at
once, and by next Saturday it is hoped
that the first issue will make it's APP
pearance. The paper will be a semi
weekly. Later on it may be made a
daily.

OLIVER DURANT
Tells Of the Sale of the Centre Star
For 100000.

Tells of the Sale of the Centre Star
For 100000.
Oliver Durant resided in Salt Lake so
long and has so many old friends and
associates here that anything concern
ing him will be read with interest. The
Butte Inter Mountain contains the fol-
lowing:
Oliver Durant, the gentleman to
whose sagacity and perseverance the
stockholders OF the Centre Star are in
debted for the recent lucky turn by
which they will receive 100000, is in
the city, attending the details of the
transfer of the property to the new
purchasers.
1.-THE Centre Star mas had an eventful
history" said Mr.. Durant in the course
of a conversation today. Located as
late as 1890. it was condemned times
without number by mining experts, who
propheSied all kinds of dire things. But
I never lost faith in it, however, not
even during the dark days of 1893, when
we were forced to suspend operations
to await the result of the severe panic
and learn whether or not We were 60
ing all to pieces.
1--WE have had a long and tedious
struggle in its development. In the
early days of the camp Of RoSsland our
nearest point of obtaining supplies was
Marcus, so miles distant. From there
we had to pack everything; we couldn't
set a nail within that distance. The
point of supply was shortened up, how
ever, each year, and we thought our
selves in great luck when we got a
wagon road to NorthDort and Trail
Landing.
THE Centre Star was located July Z,
1890, by Joseph Bourgeois. In the
spring of 1891 Durant & Tarbet pur-
chased the property from him for s25.-
000 We kept working it. 1 had open
cd up the lie Roi mine the year pre-
vious for the aenefit of the syndicate
that later purchased the property
Along about 1895 the Centre Star COM
pany was organized in Butte, with P.
A. Largey as president, G. A. Lavell as
vice president. w. G.. Benham, secre-
t2ry. T. NJ. Hodgens treasurer, and A.
Tarbet and o. Durant as directors. I
Immediately took charge of operations
at the mine, put in air compressors and
drills, and developed it to the extent of
about 1000 feet of work
81 am satisfied there is five or six
million dollars worth of ore in sight,
taking in all the different kinds OF ore,
Which, if properly handled, will be
great source of revenue to the new
owners. We have the ore chutes of the
lie Roi on the easterly end, showing all
the pitch and trend of the vein into
Centre Star ground. On that end of the
LIE Roi some two million dollars worth
of ore was extracted.

Yesterday was an important one for
the stock exchange, not because of
heavy trading, but because the insti-
tuition opened up in it's new quarters,
in the rear of Is West Second South
street. The quarters are an improve
ment upon those last occupied, and the
bulls and bears admired the arrange
ments. The pit is inclined and supplied
with seats, and platform for the
president and caller. There is plenty Of
room for visitors, and there is space
for q large mineral exhibit, the inten-
ton being to secure, if possible, the dis
play made during the mining congress.
The members desire to have ladies
attend the calls if they are disposed.
and rule has been promulgated pro-
hibiting smoking, while other arrange
ments will be made for the fair sex.
The business yesterday was not es-
pecially heavy, although all stocks
were firm and there was some trading.
A block of Mammoth went at $1.99, and
plenty of shares could have been dis
posed Of at 2 cents lower, but the
holders would not part with them.
Utah was in demand at so cents, but
no sales were reported. Omaha was
sought for at AZ cents, but the lowest
asked was SO, and no shares changed
hands. For Swansea 81. So was bid, with
1915 as the lowest asked. Several blocks
of Joe Bower were sold at 12@13 cents,
and a thousand shares of Buckeye went
for 212 cents.
The sales made were as follows:
Mammoth, 100 shares at $1.99.
Sunbeam, 1000 shares at sc.

CACHE DEMOCRATS AWAKE.
Want Legislators Who Will Respect
Wishes of Constituents.

Logan, Aug. 22.-Candidates for
county offices continue to crop out.
Edward Edwards, a brother of the
Democratic county chairman, has en-
tered the race for sheriff. When the
convention for nominating legislative
and county candidates meets, deter
mined effort will be made to prevent
the nomination for the legislature of
any but straightouts. This will in all
probability bring Hons. Joseph Monson
and 1. c. Thoresen into the legislative
race again, for Democrats generally in
Cache seem to have decided an
tipathy this year for men who are
likely to ignore their constituents
wishes. 1t is probable that if A. +.
Farr, jr., does not succeed himself as
treasurer, he will be asked to run for
the legislature. There is a prospect,
however, of his remaining as treas
urer, as no candidates for that office
have as yet appeared, the enormous
bond required CS150,000) deterring men
from seeking that position.

and the flesh having become very hard,
and his whole frame being racked with
intense pains. DR.. Alle7 of Provo, who
superintendent the operation, says he
found two stones. one floating free in
the abdomen with a quantity of puss,
and the other in the interior of the
vermiform appendix, which organ was
found to have been ruptured. The suf-
ferer stood the operation remarkably
we'll. and from the first showed signs of
relief and began to recover as soon as
the work was finished. The physicians
say he will be well now in a short

Golden Gate Deal Off.

Logan, Aug. 22.-The stockholders of
the Golden Gate Mining company have
very foolishly declined to accept the
proposition of the Mercur capitalists
relative TO bonding that property. The
Mercur company offered to spend $10,-
600 in development work on the claim,
and in return asked for the option of
purchasing it at the end of one year
for $4,000, if it made a, good showing.
This offer the stockholders rejected,
and, as they are all comparatively poor
men, the prospects are that nothing
will be done on the claim.
