Quite an excitement has been
created in North Idaho by the
discovery of molydenum in a
copper mine. A big ledge on
the Payette, above Garden val
ley, carries a large amount of
this metal, and it is said to be
quite plentiful in Stanley Basin.
But it's discovery never created
any excitement, for the reason
that it has been deemed value
less. But it seems that uses are
being found for the metal. The
ledge on Payette has been locat-
ed by different parties on &C
count of the great amount of
metal it carried, and the ore
looked as if it might be of some
value in the precious metals, but
assays were very low. The
metal was a puzzler to prospec-
tors and it was sent to different
assayers who could not tell what
it was. Finally HI. @. Thomp-
son, now deceased, sent q sample
of the ore to the Smithsonian
Institute, and it was pronounced
molydenum. Since then pros
pectors who learned of the char
acter of the metal have consider
ed it of no value. Before this
they thought it might be one of
the valuable metals. Instead OF
slyly slipping over there and To-
eating this ledge and becoming a
molybdenum king, the editor OF
the World in his great liberality
and generosity, gives away this
information, in order that some
struggling prospector may hoI
onto it. But to be candid, we
will state that we are not looking
for any molydenum lodges,
They may be alright, but never
theless If no one has any more
faith in their value than this
humble scribe, the high grade
molydenum ledge on Payette
will remain INDICATED and un
touched for an indefinite period
of time.-Idaho World.

Several letters received from
Manila this week. All denounce
Gov. Steunenberg for appointing
Capt Hamer colonel, boosting
him over worthy and deserving
men. Hamer is very unpopular
with the boys. Stunie should
leave appointments with the

tons governor is doing. Even
the governors soldier friends
say he is not doing right by the
volunteers -Genesee News.

O~t" - - OOaohAhh VI VIC -
S. cruiser Raleigh evidently told
the truth at the New York ban
quet on April 21st, but the world
is making much ado over his
speech. He said /:
Every day we were with Ad-
miral Dewey we learned more
and more to love him. and more
and more how the country's in
terests we're safe in his hands,
and how he could do nothing but
that which would rebound to the
c%ountry's credit.
Throughout those long, and
weary months of waiting and the
most outrageous nagging that
anybody could suffer, wearing
him to the very bone, he held
himself up, and he held us up
with him."
Capt. Coughlin told the follow
ing story of his Admiral IAN
officer of our friend, Admiral
Won Diedrich, came down one
day to make q complaint. 1t
was my pleasure to step out on
the quarterback just as he came
aboard. 1t was partly by acct
dent and partly by design. l
heard him tell the Admiral about
his complaint, and | heard the
Admiral reply +:
"'Tell your Admiral those
ships of his must stop when /
say so. / wish to make the bloc
kade of this harbor complete
1.-The German officer replied:
But we fly the flag
1.-THE reply of the Admiral
was just like Dewey. He said :
Those flags can be bought at
half a dollar a yard anywhere
There was no fun in that ex-
preston of the Admiral. He
told the officer that any one
could fly a German flag, and that
a whole Spanish feet might come
upon him with German flags up.
Then he drew back and stroked
his moustache. He has a great
habit of stroking his moustache
when he gets mad. He said:
"'Tell yonr Admiral l am
blockading here. Now, note
carefully what l say, and tell
your Admiral thatI say it. l
have been making this blockade
as easy for everybody as / could,
but ! am getting tired of the
pueriIe work here. 1t has been
of such character that a man
wonld not notice it, although
children might fight over it, but
the time has come when it must
stop. Tell your Admiral that
the slightest infraction of any
rule will mean but one thing.
That will be war. 1t will be so
accepted and resented immedi-
ately. If your people r ready
for war with the United States,
they a have it at any time
II am free to admit that al
most took my breath away. 1t
came so suddenly. We had ex-
pected it all along, but things
you have been expecting always
come Unexpectedly. AS he left,

How Majo or FiggIns Led.

folks live near Clayton
mot long ago, in the mail that
arrived from the United States.
came a certain Idaho paper filled
to the edges of the chases with
three galleys of narrowing and
humiliating rot and mal9volent
calumny against the characters
of certain of our officers, charg-
ing them with rank cowardice in
the campaign of August 18th,
and, as there was no textof facts
upon which to make a copious
expatiation, the hiatus was sup
piled by a lot of rancous croak-
ings, aspersions and personal
abuse.
1.-The author of this anony-
nous and huge alteration, pre-
sumably some clabber- chatterer,
with an itch for scribbling and a
goat's-worth of wit, whose invec-
tive bitterness probably came
from a chronic biliousness and
his satire from a canker in his
own heart, must have dug up
patched-up pasquinade from his
own morbid imagination, for his
charges were wholly without
fact or foundation. Our officers
had no opportunity to prove
their bravery in feats of "broil
and battle" in the fight of Aug
ust 18th, and, of course, there
was none to show their cowardice.
"But now that this mutual lit
tie milf between the Insurgents
and ourselves has come up and
an opportunity has aptly and OPP
portunely presented itself, our
officers, by their GOODNESS and
courage in many an Imminent
deadly breach" have gracefully
refuted these false imputations
and administered a smart rebuke
to their cowardly critic, whose
charges now, in the light of lat
ter events, have been turned into
a boomerang, which, rebounding
must have hit his conscience
hard.
"Our officers did nothing that
will gain them incrusted medals
of war from Congress or that
will "hobsonize' them with the
ladies at home; but better than
stars OF epaulets or coddling
~caresses, is the respect of their
men, which they have unanimous
ly gained by their fidelity to duty
in the face of danger, and their
calm courage and manly heroism
on the battle field.
"They were as calm as veter-
ans under fire. One case from
personal observation Before
Malabon, the first battalion was
up to the hilt in a heavy fire and
the bullets were driving low and
hard and many of them dancing
q rigadoon on the crest of the
embankment, which we lay snug
gled. Amid it all Lieut.. York,
of Company E, sprang upon the
bank, making a splendid target,
but to the sound of bullets that
swirled and swished over his
head in supernatural velocity, he
merely rolled his eyes in the di.
rection of the sound and swept,
with calm glance, the enemy's
lines. He then walked along the
bank, giving the enemy's range,
with perfect calmness and sang
froid.
I'm the charge of Feb. 9TH, our
commanding officers rode well in
advance of their commands and
sat their horses on the most dan
gerous ground as straight and
fearless as did the imperial and
grand old rider of old Whitney
waiting for Santa Ann to sur
render. Both officers had their
horses shot in the charge.
"Brave and beloved Major Nc
Conville will ever be held in
sacred remembrance by his men
as a splendid soldier, a kind and
courteous officer and as brave q
man as any that sits laure-crown
