and in few words thanked the COM
papy for this cordial display and as
surance of confidence.
There was nothing more of note
done that day, aud l saw no more of
Morgan, though was once or twice
again on the mountain. In the morn
ing orders were given to build up the
barricades, and all the crews were
mustered and set to work. We found
the chiefs design was to make this a
strong place, that we might have a
haven of refuge in case things went
wrong at Panama,
By the end of the next day we had
the place in a very fair posture for de-
fense, whereupon Morgan had us
knock oil, and preparation was forth
with made for the great expedition.
There were at this time in the river
some small Spanish vessels, named, l
think, chatten, and these, with the four
little ships that had been there at
first, Morgan fetched up close to the
quays and armed with cannon. The
object was to strengthen that ap-
proach to the castle. A fleet of canoes
that likewise had been captured, to-
gether with the greater part of our
boats, were then brought up to the
main quay, and when 500 men bad
been told off to garrison the castle and
$50 more left on the ships, we entered
the boats and the gun was fired for
starting. Capt. Brodely was still left
to keep San Lorenzo, as the castle was
called, and looked bit rueful as he
saw the rest of us so gayly setting
forth. Little did he know what was to
happen to us, or what a desperate
thing the expedition was to be, or he
had scarce worn so long face.
Our command numbered just 1903
men, including Morgan himself, and
for conveyance we had five barges, ten
ships boats and 80 canoes. However,
we knew that we were not to cover the
whole distance by water, as there must
be some leagues of march from the
head of navigation to the city. Every
plan save one was carefully made, but
that one proved of passing Importance
1t was the matter of provisions, which
Capt. Morgan thought we should take
but light supply of, as he conceived
we must be able to find sufiiciency on
the way. On bright and not over
warm morning, then, with flags flying
from the stern of the boats and two
trumpeters blowing merry blasts,
while those on shore waved their hats
and cheered, the oars were set going
and we started up the river.
My companions and I were still in
Pradeys command, not having found
sufficient excuse for transference.
though indeed it made little difference.
for all the companies were as one
large one, with Morgan at the head.
That day nothing of special note
happened. We all greatly relished the
empowering of the woods and green
cry, after so long dwelling about the
sea, and for a time the men sang and
laughed and splashed their hands in
the water like so many joyous chill
dren.
That day we made only six leagues,
and then, as the men complained of the
Gripping of their legs consequent upon
so long crouching in the boats, Morgan
gave the order to land, the place being
an attractive little savanna with
bend of the forest all about.
The woods were now dense and the
marching soon grew SO bad that Nor

A Seven Devils Corporation.

Mr.. James Walton, whose return
from California was noticed last
week, tells the SIGNAL man he is
more in love with Washington coun-
tvs mineral possibilities than ever.
He was sent to examine and report
on several copper properties in San
Bernardino county, California, and
says they cannot be compared with
the showing made in several of the
Seven Devils claims. The ore in the
California properties generally ran
only 8 to 10 per cent copper and the
want of natural facilities, such as
timber, water and coal, rs also the
high price to be paid for supplies
hay $40 a ton-rendered them less
desirable from an investors stand
point than those in our hills.
Mr. Walton has shown us the pros

pose of operating group of twelve

the Green Vale and Myrtle groups,
some of the best properties in the
district. The company contemplates
putting up a smelter Immediately,
sufficient to reduce the ores mined /;
in the mean time they will ship n
considerable quantity, having already
eight tons of high grade ore ready
for shipment as soon rs the roads are
in proper condition.

that they have good ore and in enorm-

A SOLON OF CHICAGO
Continued from first page.)


l had talk this week with q dem
ocratic politician of national reputa-
ton, and the conversation drifted
naturally to the issues of the next
campaign.
''The silver plank of the Chicago
platform will be the foremost issue, "
he said "The party leaders have re-
Gently, one and all, said in public
interviews that such was the case,
and there is not the slightest reason
to fear that any democrats will en-
deavor to dodge the inevitable issue
One of the Chicago republican papers
has been continually stating that the
silver issue was dead, but | notice
an editorial in todays issue the cap
ton of which is 'The Silver Question
Must Be Fought Over A gain In 1900
"Of course it must" he continued,
''for no question is ever settled until
it is settled right.
'Itis true that while the remoneti-
zalion Of silver at 16 to / will be the
leading issue, another plank of almost
equal importance will be 'anti-mono-
ply and 'anti-trusts' declarations. "
''Do you realize" he continued,
), that the year 1898 has been enorm-
ously prolific of trusts and combines?
Yes, fostered by the protecting arm
of the administration gigan tic
combinations of capital have been
formed for lowering the cost of pro
duction of nearly every article manu-
featured and for artilicially raising
the price to the consumer. In all
industries wages are lowered, surplus
factories are closed and fairly paid
employees are discharged The fig
ures are just out giving the amount
of capital that has gone into trusts
IN this country during the year 1898,
and | find it is the stupendous sum
of 81 200, 900, 000
Real competition no longer exists.
Every herethe strong are crowding
out the weak. About the only in
dustry in this country in which there
is genuine competition is that of agri-
culture. While striving hard to pro-
duce sucffiient from his land for q
livelihood the farmer finds that the
great principle of protection does not
protect him in any particular, on the
contrary acts to increase the cost of
everything that he purchases.
"Protection breeds trusts, and CEN
tralization of capital means destruc-
ton to the small merchants and
manufacturers. Yes, the democratic
party stands for the rights of the
people against the favored classes,
and expect that long before Novem-
her of 1900 rolls around the great
body of the common people will have
seen sufficient indications of the fact
that the republican party is the party
of plutocracy to enable us to carry
nearly every state in the union for
bimetallism and anti monopoly.
