A HASTY JUDGMENT.


Los Angeles Herald: The Chicago
Chronicle has arrived at the conclu
sion that the Klondike is a fraud, be-
cause more gold has not already come
out of the country than has been taken
into it. On that basis all mining sec
tions must be condemned, for we be-
lieve not one has ever produced dollar
for dollar for money invested. The
capitalization of the mines of the Rand
district, in South Africa is far above
the aggregate production to date, and
Rand stocks do not nearly comprehend
the sums expended in prospecting and
development Millions have been spent
by companies which have never listed
their stocks, by close corporations and
by individuals. Scientifically as mining
is conducted In the Rand district, it is
highly probable that every ounce Of

mated that, including sugar, this
country pays annually to foreigners in
the neigh borhood OF $500, 600, 900 for
farm products, most of which the
country is itself capable of producing,
and his ambition is to see it produce
the bulk Of these articles. He has a
hundred irons in the fire looking to
this end, and the busy hustling con-
diton OF the present Department OF
Agriculture presents a distinct con-
trast to the dull, sleepy atmosphere
incident to the last Secretary's admin
istration. Every chief OF every
division OF the Department has been
imbued with new life and each one
has his coat off and is running that
division on full time and at full speed.

DAYToN'S DECISION
That He Will be a Candidate for
denomination.

A Washington special to the Wheel
ing Intelligencer says; Representa-
tive Dayton has authorized the state
ment that he will be a candidate for
denomination to Congress from the
Second West Virginia district. Mr..
Dayton has reached this conclusion,
he says, only after most careful delib.
Grafton, and he makes the announce
ment now in order that there may be
no misunderstanding whatever, as to
his position. He says it is his desire
that the field may be considered as
open to all aspirants for the honor
He makes this declaration, not be-
cause he considers it necessary as a
precedent to that condition, but mere
ly to assure his fellow. citizens that
should it be their pleasure TO name
some one else, that one shall have his
earnest support from the inception to
the close of the campaign.
"Mr. Dayton's personal preference
has been to return to the practice of
his profession, and to give it his undi-
vided attention. His purpose to do
so, was made known to his close
friends just after the election of 1896,
and even earlier, but he does not want
to seem to be ungrateful to his friends
nor Indifferent to the demands of his
friends, and he has yielded to their
urgent solicitations, and reconsidered.
The Second district representative
has received many written and per-
sonally presented requests for public
announcement of his candidacy.
Scarcely a day passes that his mail
does not include several such com
munications emanating from all sec
tions of the district Few members
of the House have been more honored
in this respect.
4" i am willing to serve the people
again, if they choose to re-elect me,
said Mr. Dayton, to the IutelIigencer
correspor dent, but l shall stand in
no other Republicans path to OBJ
struct him. Should be re-nomiuat-
ed | shall, OF course, want the aid OF
every voter who values good govern
ment, and should some other Repub
lean he named, I shall want all such
voters to give him cordial and undi-
vided support. My record is before

ceal. Let the people decide. "

Why the L., L. s. b. A. Assignment
Was rIade.

Many inquiries having been made
recently why the Improvement, Loan
and Building Association Directors
placed its affairs in the hands of trus-
tees, we give below the official pre-
amble and resolution which fully ex-
plain the object in view-equal and
exact justice to all persons interested;
Whereas this Association has been
forced into litigation for the protec-
ton of its creditors and stockhold-
ers, and large number of such credit
ors are harrassing it for the payment
of their debts, one or more suits hav-
ing already been instituted against it
and more are threatened; and whereas
under these conditions, coupled with
the persistent effort of a large numb
of stockholders to withdraw their
stock to the prejudice of the other
stock holders, and the Association
desiring to give full and ample pro-
lection to its creditors and to do equal
and exact justice to its stockholders,
finding it impossible to continue its
business longer without permitting
injustice to be done; now therefore, be
it,
Resolved, That j. II. Gettinger,
President CT this Association, is here
by authorized, empo vered and direct
ed to make to Adrian c. Nadenbousch
and c. A. Young, trustees, and execute
and acknowledge for record a proper
deed of trust upon all of the property,
real personal or mixed, chooses in
action, etc, owned by this Associa-
ton in Berkeley county, w. Va, or
in any other county or State, for the
benefit of all the creditors of this AS
ISOLATION without preference or prior
ity; giving said trustees full power
and authority to take charge of said
property at once, to sell the same,
either publicly or privately, and after
such advertisement, if any, as they
uioy deem best, and upon such terms
IA they elect, to sue for and collect all
claims, notes, bonds, demands, secur-
tiles and other evidence of debt, and
generally to do all such acts as may
be necessary to convert such property
into current funds for the proper adj
ministration of said trust, and to en-
ploy such counsel, clerks or agents as
in their judgment may be required,
and to make such other, further and
necessary provisions in said deed as
are usual in such cases and as the
occasion may demand.
