ARAPAHOE PEAK.

The Eldora Herald of Saturday chron-
icles the discovery of monster vein of
good quartz at the west base of Arapa-
hoe peak in Grand Island district, Bould-
er county. An assay of the float gave
$136.2O per ton 6 $40 gold and 33-10O
ounces silver per ton. The vein runs
southeast into Arapahoe peak, the line
of the vein crossing the apex of this
peak. Some years ago Mr.. McGlothlin
brought over to Central fine appearing
quartz from the headwaters of Straw
berry creek, bat no such results were OBJ
tanned from the assay from any of the
quartz. G. H. Stipp and E. H. Kuhl-
man are the discoverers and locators of
the new find. They have taken out an
100 pound sample from clear across the
vein, to ascertain more accurately the
values the quartz contains.

preciate. The Chicago, Milwaukee and

/ had an interesting talk recently

and stood squarely upon the St. Louis
platform. such a policy said the
gentleman, whose name, for obvious
reasons, is not mentioned, would be
suicidal to party success. 1t would re.

cast in Montana next year. / believe
in building up the party and putting il
in a position to carry Montana. It can
be done, too, and without the Mckin-
ley republicans sacrificing anything.

too glad to return to the party on the

today" That is the position all repub-
licans should take, too. and from my
observation | believe most of them are
taking it, You find q few narrow
minded individuals, of course, who are
afraid that the party will become larger
than themselves, who favor shutting
out the silver republicans. but mon of
this character will not dominate the

The heating plant in thenew school
house was completed by II. A. Phillips
and his assistants last week and 1t
was examined by Messrs. Cort and
Jackson of the school board. The
house may now be said to be COM
pleted and ready for occupancy, tho
a little work must be done ON n
chimney. The blackboards have not
arrived, much difficulty being en-
countered in procuring them, but
this need not delay the use of the
building. 1t is learned from the
board that the amount of bills paid
and turned in IL considerably in excess
of the amount of money in the build
ing fund az well az several Thousand
dollars greater than the contract
price. Contractor Sheridan has had
little or nothing To do with the build
ing for months past and the work
has been done by the board rather
than by the bondsmen. Asettlement
bet ween bondsmen and board must
be reached before the house can he
accepted and this work IL now being
undertaken. 1t is hoped by all parties
that IA law suit will be avoided, for
should it be impossible 10 reach an
agreement the building would prob
ably he locked up and remain so for
a year. While not an unlikely result,
considering the management which
has characterized the whole work. it
would nevertheless be very unfortu-
nate. as the children now attending
have not sufficient orproperquarters
and the continued use of the Jackson
building would he al extra expense,
which the district cannot afford, and
altogether injurious to the health OF
teachers and children compelled to
spend their hours i'm such a place.
