Tor the purpose of soliciting sub

CROOKED CREEK MINES.
Five Miles South of the Jumbo
Mine Near Buffalo Hump.

From Tuesdays ia ~
| j. p. Letter arrived out from the
Hump country Saturday and brings
glowing reports OF that section oil
the Robbins mining district stu
ated on Crooked creek, five miles
| south of the Jumbo mine. Mr.,
Letter heard good reports of this
particular section and ON his visit
to the Hump concluded to pay a
visit and see for himself If it came
up to representations. Personal
inspection satisfied him that the
half had hot been told, and ON his
return TO the hump lie will put in
his time prospecting in that par
ticular locality.
The claim which Letter saw and
impressed him most was the Drum
Lnmmon, owned by the Warren
boys, and situated five miles south
of the Jumbo. The claim carries
seven feet Of solid sulphide ore and
an assay of this ore body, taken
clear across the vein, with best
looking specimens rejected, gives
values of $40 per ton in gold
The Warren boys own four claims
located along Crooked creek, the
Drum Lummon M, !, Drum Lum-
mon No. 2, Richmond No, l and
Richmond No. 2. James McOaffr
rey and Gallagher, late Of Florence,
also own claims adjoining, which
show up some fine ore. A pecul.
iarity Of this district is the fact that
its ores resemble the hump ores, or
SO closly that it is impossible to
tell them apart.
Mr.. Letter had pieces with him
which we located as coming from
the Big Buffalo. The comp sition
Of the ores are identical enough TO
deceive an expert.
Thus from all sides of grand old
Buffalo Hump come assurances of
the existence OF the gr, attest gold
bearing zone in the universe il, the
very heart of Old idaho county and
only 40 miles from growing Grange
vile.

From Tuesdays daily
To say that the account of Sun

yesterdays DAILY Pass, created a
sensation, is putting the matter
mildly. The friead+ and enemies
of the paper alike are talking o

praise Of the thorough and impair

phases of the affair were presented.
DR.. Bibby, the wcll-known ply

and found Madgc in an hysterical
condition, bleeding severely from
the mouth. The whole of tile low
er portion of her face was swollen,
and two natural tc til had been
knocked down her throat and four
false. One of the other women had
terrible black eye. and another
had lump on her forehead as big
as mans fit The fourth woman
did not seem badly hurt.
"Madge's injuries ! am con-
WINGED were caused by a sandbag.
A blow With the fist, such as she
received, would have broken hnr
teeth; sandbag would pull them
out, and this is what had occurred.
She was in q very precalious con-.
dition, both from The blow and the

V. s. Won Yarf, the shoemaker

O'Clock Sunday evening when l
heard cries for the police and
shrieks. l ran in the direction of

girls were crying and Madge was
covered with blood. At first the
injuries on the other girls did not
show up plain, but / had not been
there five minutes before one de-
veloped a terrible black eye, and a
big bump appeared on another's
forehead. The fourth had been
knocked down by a blow on the
neck which left no mark.

Heitheld in conversation will
a Tribune reporter yesterday
said:
Eyes, | am opposed to ex
pansion. There is nothing t.
gain. In the first place the
citizen of the island is not de
sirable, if the present interpre
tation of expansion means per
manent and definite possession
In the second place, the gov
eminent has no authority te
colonize the islands if that is
intended under the word OK
pansion. The ACT would be ir
violation of the very spirit OIL
the constitution. Both of thes.
inspiring forerunners of Amer.
lean liberty, progress and
greatness teach the very oppo.
site of that which our govern.
ment is now apparently at.
tempting to do. The CONNER.
cial advantage to be gained by
the possession of the islands is
insignificant, and to maintain
supremacy means a large
standing army and continuous
trouble and turmoil. / doubt
that congress will ratify any
move of the administration to-
ward acquiring permanent pos
session of the islands. The
republican majority in the
house is small one and many
prominent republicans are
anti-expansionists. OF the re-
pnblicans who have supported
the administration up to this
time, many will refuse to EN-.
dorse a straight out expansion
policy if that purpose is later
exposed"

MANAGER BRAD
LEY COMING
The Aasnate Of tho Bunker Hill and
Sullivan Nine Is ED Route.
WILL JOIN MANAGER D. B.
HUNTLEY.

From Saturdays daily.
Judging from appearances Man
ager Huntley OF the De Lamar
mines, who is now in the Newsome
creek country, is highly impressed
with the showings made by tn.
newly discovered quartz prosps ctr
in that section. He left here i.
week ago with the intention of 60
ing to Elk City to inspect some OF
the best known and standard quartz
propositions in that section, but he
appears to have been sidetracked at
Newsome to good advantage, judg-
ing by the protracted stay he is
making, and it will not in tn,
least surprise us to hear that he has
decided to take hold of something
on Ncwsome creek and push it for
all it is worth with his accustomed
energy. As we have once or
twice stated before, the De Lamar
people are good people to do bust
ness with and we hope to see them
become interested with us in some
Of the mining propositions outside
of the Buffalo Hump.
Manager Huntley's visit to New
some and Elk will be apt to open
his eyes to the fact that Buffalo
Hump, while a sure-enough great
camp, is not the only apple in
Idaho county's basket.
And, apropos, little bird whis.
pers us that Manager Bradley, VI
the Bunker Hill & Sullivan rpsu.
pany, Is en- route to Grangeyill.
and will shortly join Managci
Huntley in exporting some of tht
good propositions in the Elk City
mineral zone for the De Lamar
people.
There is also strong probability
that Manager Bradley is on the
lookout for an investment of the
surplus capital Of the Bunker Hill
h Sullivan people. It is known
that, despite the losses caused tn. m
by tn. dynamitcrs, they have made
money out eftheir op era.
