 While Gov. Jones was iE Fort Smith the first of the week report was circulated that he had conclud- ed not to enter the lists for United States Senator. In denying this rumor to a Fort Smith reporter he said:
 II am candidate for this office because I want it, and l will be a candidate until the people tell me they do not want me to have the office. How the report started l do not know, but want to say in the Times that it is absolutely false l am in the race, and will stay in 1t to the end, and 1 expect to be e,ected There are a great many live ques- tions to be exploited in the next congress that 1 want to be heard on, and l believe that the party de- mandS man there who will live in the present and not in the past, This is what base my campaign on aud whether 1 am tue successful candidate or not l am going 10 do all that l can to get the office. Tce people os this State have honored me with their suffrage before and I think that they will again. I will not open an active campaign for some mont ths yet, but when l do l expect to be heard throughout the State, ane when l have finished the people will know where l stand on the live issues of the day. l will not thrash over the dea l issues of tbe past, but will address myself to what the day and the hour demand of representative of the people in the halls of Congress.
 There has been no rumor in circu- lation in this part of the State that Gov. Jones had concluded not to en- ter the race tor U. s. Senator Tie fact is, it has been generally under stood that he has been candidate for this office ever since he was first elected Governor. The rumor that is in circulation here is that be is not in the race when it comes to running against Arkansas good friend, Senator Berry.

Of tho Existing Condition of Crops
 in This Section.

In some of the hill and bayou country of this (Jefferson) county the grow. .b of the cotton plant has been checked blythe dry, hot weather but the crop as a whole has been do- ing remarkably well since August 1st. The cotton worm has been found iu two places, but it is so late in the season the worm will hardly damage the crop appreclably. Bol- worms are doing some damage, but not more so than is common at this season of the year.
 Recent reports about tbe damage to the crop on account of hot, dry winds are all exaggerated and have no foundation.

MIR. BRETON PROMISES THE LEAGUE A PROMPT lNVES-
 TIGATlON IN THE
LOCAL FREIGHT MATTER.
Are Looking After That Hamburg Matter ToO-Much Other Work
 About to be Accomplished.

Our "Searchlight" was told Sat- urday that there were many kicks being made relative to an irregular Cotton Belt local freight which runs daily between Pine Bluff and Alt heimer and wkich also enjoys very large passenger patronage. He in- quired of several prominent citizens but none of those approached seem td tc know anything of the "exist- ing affairs, upon which the kicks were based He luckily met Presi- dent Fred Fox of the Commercial Leagne, and upon being asked about the matter Mir. Fox said:
 During the past six weeks the Commercial League has had quite number of complaints from our citi. zens and those on the line of the AL theimer branch, as to the annoyance and inconvenience of having the To- cal freight on this line pull them in to Altheimer about 5 o'clock in the afternoon, and their having to re. main there waiting for the local on the main lne until anywhere from g o'clock to 1O:30 o'clock at night before they could get back to Pine Bluff. Mr. B. D. Russell and my self called on Division Superintend- ent Rawlins on Friday afternoon, and found General Superintendent Britton in the city. We had an ln- teryiew with them and laid the com- plaint of our people before them. Mr. Britton said they would take the matter up at once and if they could consistently do so, would grant the relief asked for.
 Another important matter the League has under head pay is the possibility of the Hamburg trade being carried from us on account of lower rates being made by the rail road from Hamburg to Sunny Side on the Mississippi river, connecting there with steamboats from New Orleans and Greenville, than we can get to this point. Now there IS a business proposition that is being looked after carefully. We want to first find out what we must have in this case, and as soon as we do we are going to ask the proper officials on the Missouri Pacific railroad to help us out, and we beieye they will We are going to try hard to increase our business in this ter ritory, rather than give up any part of it.
 There are some other items the League has under adyisemeut, but has not made sufficient progress with them to give them to the pub lie. From time to time we hope to be able to show that tbe League is filling it's place well, and we hope it will prove itself an important fac tor in our growing city"

THE GRAND PRIZE MINE.
An Old Bonanza In Which Holmes
and Knox Hold An Option.

James w. Linnell, one of the old
timers of Tuscarora, New, and who is
interested in the Grand Prize mine in
this ancient and productive camp, is in
the city on business connected with
this property and other bonanza propo-
SitionS of that section
The Grand Prize, which has record
of $4,000 900 paid in dividends in the
past, is now held by Messrs. G. S.
Holmes and Frank Knox of this city
on an option for a bond, and as it is
claimed that an immense amount of
milling gold ore is exposed in it's work
ings, it is believed that in due time, if
the bond is taken by these gentlemen,
that this old mine will soon find a.
place on the list again as a producing
and paying property, even though the
workings are badly caved, and to such
an extent that it will take some time
and money to straighten it up and
clean it out so that operations can be
carried on satisfactorily.
Mr.. Linnell is quite heavily interested
in the Tuscarora Extension, which he
characterizes as a most promising
property while he speaks highly of the
outlook for the Owyhee placer ground
which is owned by a Salt Lake COM
papy bearing this euphoneous name.

That the West Dip of Camp Flovd
idly forging to the front was demon
strated yesterday by the announcement
of the first big sale for that section,
and from now on this locality may be
looked upon as a formidable rival to
the camp of Mercur and its mines.
In yesterdays issue of The Herald it
was intimated that a big sale was on
the taois for the West Dip, the trans
action involving the transfer of the
Daisy mine the first producer in the
camp. and the announcement was made
in the afternoon that the sale had been
contaminated and that a major portion
of the Capitalization of the company
had been purchased by Hon. John Dern,
manager of the Mercur mine, and his
associates, the deal including the hold
ings of the eastern stockholders of the
company, as well as what interest Mr..
A. II. Mayne owned in the association,
it being understood that a good round
price per share was paid for the stock
transferred.
Immediately after the closing of the
deal Mr. Dern was elected a director Of
the company in place of Director Will
son, resigned, and it is stated that the
MANAGEMENT of the company was Of
be considered by this gentleman later
on. after he has made an examination
of this West Dip mine and mill, which
will be within the next few DAYS, in
company with Will Orr, the well known
cyanide expert.
The Daisy is one of the finest proper
ties of Camp Floyd district. The mine
is well opened and developed, and
shows extensive bodies of a good grade
of teaching gold ore in it's workings
besides which it is equipped with fine
mill, which is turning out cyanides to
an extent calculated to lead to the be-
lief that the company will soon be on
a regular dividend-payfng basis.
The sale Of the Daisy means the open
ing of a new and prosperous era for
the West Dip, within the environments
of which there are other big properties,
such as the La Cigale, the Omaha, aad
Snow Storm, besides several other prop
ositions Of merit and value on the
same ledge, which is extensive and per
manent.
The sale Of the Daisy to the local
syndicate was promoted by the well
known firm of Sheets & Thomson,
brokers and stock dealers

Mercur, March 29.-The Miners union
was organized Monday evening, with
membership of about 100. 1t is probable
that many more will join in the near
future, and make it a very strong IN
stitution. 1t rs not likely that the union
will be aggressive for some time, but
will direct their efforts to enforcing the
eight-hour law.

that locality.
J. Tyler has been at work on the East
Dip company's ground, and has fine
showing in sight. A large vein crops
on the hill, and shaft is being sunk
to cut It at a depth of 300 feet from the
surface, where it is thought good values
will be found. The company was recent
ly organized, and a great deal of the
stock is held by Provo parties.
The Overland pipe line is completed,
and the pumps will be throwing water

only the Overland mill and the engine

some fear entertained by the people of
Fairfield that the springs will be robbed
by the pumps, and in such case a law
suit will result
A letter from DugWay states that
everything looks like spring in that
section, and everything is putting on
an air Of activity. Two shifts are at
work in the gold and silver carbonate
property, and in shaft No. 1 the vein
is increasing rapidly in size as depth
is gained, and the values are also i'm

sacked, ready for shipment as soon as
the roads are in good condition.

THE IvANHoE GOLD MINE.
Hal Brown Returns From Visit to
This Bonanza Property.

Hal w Brown, the we'll known Salt
has returned from a visit to Amador
county, California. where he made an
inspection of the Ivanhoe gold mine, in
which he recently purchased a fourth
interest, and in which Gill S. Peyton,
W. s. and c. K. Mccormick and j. A.
Brent are heavy owners.
This was Mr.. Browns first trip to the
mine, and he was more than pleased
with his purchase and the condition of
the property, which, he states, is SEEM
irgly the making Of one of the most
notable producers on the great mother
lode, and as the mine is equipped with
a fine twenty-StamD mill with three
Willy concentrating tables, and a new
hoist and engine is being installed to
replace the small plant with which the
mine was formerly operated, the future
outlook for the enterprise certainly is
painted with most rosy hues.
In speaking of the mine, Mr.. Brown
states that immense bodies of gold
quartz are in sight in its workings, the
values of which run from $3 to S35 to
the ton in free milling gold, while the
rock also runs from 8 to per cent in
black sulDhurets, which go from $50
to $i25 in the yellow metal, the sulphur
cts being recovered by concentration.

gray quartz so characteristic of the
product of the great mother lode.
Mr.. Brown was we'll pleased with his

that this year viii witness increased

Dust Nuisance Overcome.

Assistant General Manager T. H. Ok
nam of the great De Lamar mine and
mill at De Lamar, New, who arrived in
the city yesterday morning, informs
The Herald that the mill of the COM
pany is running regularly and most
satisfactorily, treating about 300 tons
of good ore daily, and that the mine,
one of the notable wealth. producers of
the west, is steadily improving as work
in its operation progresses.
One pleasing feature connected with
the working of the mill according to
Mr.. Oman, is the fact that the dust
nuisance associated with the operation
of the Griffin mills has been overcome,
and that the application of a recent
discovery has done away almost en-
tirely with this dangerous feature of ore
reduction. Mr.. Oman also states that
the company has just begun the ex-
tensive development of the Flagstaff
group, near the De Lamar, which is
also owned by Captain j. r. De La
mar.
