WILL CROWD DEVELOPMENTS.
Henry P. Lowe, general manager of
the Topeka mine, came up from Denver
last Friday, he having returned from a
two weeks business trip to Chicago and
New York. Mr.. Lowe will now increase
the ore output of the Topeka. He is
arranging to secure rate from the Colo
RADIO & Southern Railroad company for
carload lots of concentration ore, which
will be shipped to the concentration
works at Idaho Springs. 1t will be a
great saving to him over wagon trans
portation from the mine to that place
and much safer way, especially on high
grade ore, which, after being loaded, can
be more safely transported. The usual
force of miners are now employed at the
mine,

A Lively Runaway

The Misses Margaret and Bessie
Canate. whose parents reside just below
the mouth of Pine on North Clear creek,
last Sunday afternoon had fractious
team run away with them. 1t appears
that the young ladies started into the
city with the horses attached to a light
wagon. There was no bed on the wagon,
but in lieu thereof were five boards,
three on the bottom and one on each
side. When near the Rocky Mountain
brewery the team struck out at lively
gait, Miss Bessie, the youngest, driving.
One of the wheels of the wagon struck
something projecting in the street, which
threw her off the wagon. The team
kept on at rapid rate, Miss Margaret
holding onto the wagon as best she
could. She fell off when the horses
turned the corner at the First National
bank, the horses keeping up their speed
down Main, crossing over to Spring
street Just above the lunch wagon and
down Spring to Gregory street, before
they halted. Miss Margaret was picked
up when she fell and carried into Davies
Il Co.'s pharmacy, where, after examina-
ton by DR.. Asquith, it was found that
she had received scalp wound on the
back of her head, and her right leg was
badly bruised. Afterwards she was
taken to the Office of the doctor, on
Spring street. Miss Bessie escaped in
jury, although she claims that when she
fell off the wagon one Of the hind wheels
passed over her body. Had the wagon
been loaded she would not have escaped
as luckily as she did. Both returned
home later in the afternoon.

Shaft House Burned.

hou~e burned
Last Thursday evening the shaft house
on the Annie. 81. mine property of the
Elk Park Mining and Milling company,
was destroyed by fire. The fire originated
from the smoke stack of boiler situated
in tunnel level $50 feet below surface.
The fire was discovered by the miners
no came up the shaft to the tunnel
level to eat their lunch. Discovering
the fire, they went on up to the surface,
but could not check the flames in the
building. Finding it was impossible to
save the building, they blew it up, using
twenty pounds of giant powder, thereby
preventing the spread of the fire to the
mill building only short distance from
the mine.
The destruction of the shaft building
entailed loss OF several hundred dol
lars. The building will be rebuilt. The
timbers in the shaft were destroyed,
which will require replacement. AT the
time the fire broke out high wind pre-
vailed. 1t was fortunate that the miners
discovered the fire as soon as they did.

WHAT DISCOVERY SHAFTS MUST

In the United States circuit court in
the case OF the Terrible Mining company
vs.. the Argentine Mining company. the
court held that a valid location OF n
mining claim must show vein or lode
OF valuable rock in place. A location is
not valid beyond the limits OF the lode
on which the discovery is based. II u
miner, after sinking n shaft, fails to find
a lode and then sinks another shaft in
which he does find one he may make the
latter his discovery shaft, on which loca.
tion may be based.

erend Christian socialists appeal to him
as highest wisdom.
The impending crusade Of socialis
and collectivsm will encounter no more
stubborn resistance than the prosperous,
industrious, really-dcmocratic, anti.
socalistic corn farmers, who grow the
billions Of bushels that annually pro-
duce wealth greater than all the output
Of all the gold mines, and distribute that
wealth to a greater number Of people
and over wider area than any other
wcalth-producing agency in the world.
Here the waves Of social discomfort,
the currents Of class unrest, the torrents
Of disrupiive iolc viii break in vain.
The man who makes a crop Of corn
against the chances of frost, storm,
drought and insect enemies knows what
hard labor means, what his crop has
cost him, and he is not going to divide
up with trusts, socialists or any other
form OF innovators without protest
and struggle.
No poet has yet done justice to the
corn crop. Corn is such mighty com.
mon prosaic article, it is not easily
workedu ia verses, except from sen.
timental standpoint. Paul Lawrence
Dunbar has written a corn song. Sid.
ney Lanier, another Southern singer,
has painted a poetic picture oi the yir.
tues Of corn as n mOrtgage-l''tsr. But
no one has yet done justice - the corn
crop as Americas mighticst economic
and political factor.
The corn farmers are the backbone Of
the nation. The corn crop il the para
mount force that makes the American
nation the all-conquering power hc
world. It gives more employment,
produces more wealth, creates more
prosperity, furnishes more food, ios' 'rs
more commerce, It's products are more
widely distributed over the world and
does more good than Pry other one thing
God has created. +. IloFFR.

THE DEWEY SALUTE.

Probably the most surprising piece OF
business that has been done in Salem
for a long time II, or was, the firing Of
ths Dewey salut, yesterday. Not that
IL is surprising that such a salute should
be fired but the time aud manner of
its firing and many Of the circumstances
connected with II, place II in the cate
goIy Of wonders.
II was understood that, on the sug-
gestion Of the New York World, the
instant that Admiral Dewey's foot
touched the shores Of his native land,
the land that IL supposed 10 be 10 proud
Of him, the wires were 10 flash the news
To the capital Of each state, and the
"Admiral's Salute" Of seventeen guns
was then To be- fired at each capital.
Il was given out here that the Oregon
officials would act on" this suggestion.
Then an inquiry percolatcd down
State street as 10 whether the city
wonld furnish the powder for the firing
oi the salute, ~ the state military fund
could not be used Tor that purpose.
This was a most astounding PROPOSE
tion Ia emannte from the headuuarterH
Of all the patriotism and love Of national
honor which the good Lord allows to
exist in this section Of Ills footstool.
still more astounding isit that u ebay.
seed" mayor aud lifelong Demo-
crat, A. y. Bush, were the two To
eagerly volunteer 10 furnish all the pow
der that could be- conveniently burned
Ia honor Of the foremost American, the
man who Las added more lustrc 10 the
fag and has done more to make Amor
ica's name respected than any other mrn
has done in generation,
So, the expense for powder being
guaranteed, the stat military authori-
ties had brass field piece brought mp
from Portland, and Il was unload,d
from the cars Thursday morning and
taken out to the vacant ground near the
passenger depot,
Nothing was said No one was noti-
fled ol any change in the program, and
people rested easily, ON the assumption
that when the Great Admiral would
land, Friday morning, they would be-
apprised oi the fact by the booming of
