much satisfaction and assuring those in
whom he had most confidence of his
candid opinion that work would COM

completed in time to move the fall

grading in a few days. Probably moth

people of this valley as the assurances
of the railroad officials that a railroad
would be built to st. Anthony at once.
providing a free right of way was
granted. The farmers can gather al
most endless quantities of grain, VeSe-
tables and produce; but. above all
things. they need a railroad to give
them easy access to the market. Many
of them found that it costs more to
haul their crops to Market Lake than
it does to raise them, and so, when the
railroad company asked for free right
of way through their lands, the re
quest was quickly granted, even though
it almost destroyed some fine farms.
According to the printed contracts for
right of way, the road must be built
within eighteen months or they are null
and void. 1t is hardly reasonable to
suppose the railroad company will let
such valuable acquisition as a right
of way through a fine farming country
slip through their fingers by failing to
build the road within the specified
time

FIRST NEWSPAPER
in SING SING
New York Jonrnal.l

In the first number of the Sing Sing
newspaper, The Star of Hope, there are
editorials, an essay on knowledge" a
story of travels-from one who prom
ises to continue them-from the North
Cape to Venice, a column of "Rumors,"
lost and found notices. etc. Whether a
petty larcenist or a prisoner of high
degree writes them is concealed. Each
contributor signs only his number.
No. 1,500 is distinctly an editorial
writer. He says in his salutatory:
THE paper is ours, and its place in
history rests entirely on our hands. Its
aim and scope will be to furnish the in
mates with a summary of the news of
the world and to stimulate interest
among the men toward higher and NO
bier mental training
He writes about prison reform, con-
ducts ietterbox and gives advice to
contributors.
Among the ''Rumors' one may read:
That light suits will be conspicu-
ously absent this season.
That a great number of our guests
are under fictitious names.
That the 1st of May will find the
prison front covered with To Let
placards, IF the parole bill passes
In the Lost notices there is this:
'LOST-By a visitor to the prison. on

On the subject of knowledge In
Prisons No. 1885 is eloquent. Among
other things, he says:
1T is well to consider what may be
learned in Sing Sing prison, that crime
does not and never will pay, and when
a man will deliberately assume the
risks of crime to gain a few dollars
and then serve perhaps in a prison, and
often cheerfully, is proof positive that
man is an enigma, and if such things
be for fun, ii is difficult to see where
any amusement is extracted from it."

BEAVER CoUNTY's BOOM.
Section of Utah That Is Coming to
the Front

Beaver county is in the midst of a
mining boom of no small dimentions.
a gentleman recently from Beaver,
who is well acquainted with the vari-
Gus mining districts of the county, in
conversation yesterday, said that he
barred no other county in the state
when he affirmed that there was more
copper in the county than in any other
county in Utah, and that it stood sec
ond to few in its deposits of silver and
lead.
Just now there is greater activity in
the mines of the county than ever in
its history. In speaking of the various
mines that are well under way in de-
velopment, he mentioned the Rollins
mine. Since it fell into the hands of
its present owners-the Lincoln Ulls)
people-there has been expended upon
the property $4,000 in machinery alone,
and work on the ground is going on
steadily.
The South Granite company, which
was recently organized with B. F.
Woodward as manager, has two crews
at work on its property. One of these
is working on the old Alice mine, which
is a silver producer, while the second
is driving in the copper vein, which
passes through another portion of the
property. The company is getting out
a large amount of pay ore from the
Alice, which Will be shipped to the
Salt Lake smelters unless there is a
smelter built in the county, which is
strongly talked of.
The Big mine, which is situated five
miles north of the South Granite, in
the West Mountain district, is working
a crew of men on a vein of copper,
which, at thirty feet below the sur
face. carries ore that assays from IS
to 50 per cent copper. The vein is of
unknown width. They are now sinking
a 4x6-foot shaft entirely in the vein.
This property has the best showing in
the district, and is sure to be heavy
shipper.
The Rob Roy. the Eureka group and
the White Cliff group. all gold proper
ties. are being developed. The first
named property, when worked five
years ago. cleaned up a net profit of
5000 for the last carload of ore shipped.
From a variety of causes ii has been
upon it the coming season. These
properties are in the Newton mining
district.
The Copper Ranch. which is owned |
by Gill S. Peyton and others, is work |
ing a large force of men, uncovering |
the ore bodies
Mr. Gillespie of Cripple Creek, Colo, |
has been through the county and pur- |
chased a large number of claims in |
the Rocky Star and Beaver Lake dis |
tricts, all of which will be developed.
The old Cave mine is still a heavy |
shipper, and sends out carload a
day of galena ore.

BINGHAM'S REVIVAL.
Special Edition and Fine Map Issued
By the Bulletin.

BY the Bulletin.
Since the introduction of the big
financial combinations. which have in
vested some $40, 200, 900 or s12, 900, COO in
the West Mountain mining district, the
eyes of the mining world have been
cast longingly in the direction OF the
''Old Reliable camp of Bingham.
What were thought a year or two ago
to be practically worked-out mines are
today, through the efforts of such men
as Thomas Weir, Samuel Newhouse,
James w. Neill and others, just be-
ginning a career of productiveness that
will completely eclipse all previous
records. BY the new order of things,
what was formerly known as a gold,
silver and lead camp, with the two lat
ter metals predominating, is now being
transformed into a magnificent cop
per-proGucing district, with a promise
of steady advancement as capital is
applied to develop the ground.
Fridays issue of the Bingham Bulle-
tin, J. b. Graham's paper, contains a
review of Bingham properties which is
very comprehensive, particularly as it
relates to the big consolidated proper
ties recently acquired. Its articles deal
with the formation, extent and charac-
ter of the ore bodies, the amount of
ground embraced in the big corporation
holdings, and much other information,
which Will make the paper valuable
reference document to the mining fra
ternity interested in that section.
The publisher of the Bulletin has also
issued a splendid Autographed map of
the district, which is valuable addi-
ton to the states mining literature. 1t
has been brought right up to date by
Mr.. Graham, and thousands of them
will undoubtedly be sold.

Scheme of Republicans.

1t is no secret that the Republican lead
erS have a project to add Porto Rico land
perhaps HawalD TO the Union of states
at the next session Of congress. The Porto
Rico proposition is pretty well defined.
The island will be first gwen an expert
mental government something like the
very queer one existing in the District of
Columbia After a year or so of this sort
of government Gn which the people are
as utterly vOiceiesS as in any imperial
deSpOtiSm on earth), II Is believed the
island may be prepared for statehood and
for allegiance TO the Republican party.
That party is already well organized in
the island. and carpet-baggers can well
expect to have tine time OF it, as Porto
Rico would be entitled to two senators,
eight members of congress and ten cleo
tOral votes.
1t is said that the inclusion of Hawaii
as a state is likely to depend largely on
the showing TO be made under the census
taken by the federal government. If there
are evidences of growth, she will proba-
bly, be included with Porto Rico in an
omnibus bill. Possibly Oklahoma may get
in at the same time. but the Republican
party seems still determined that New
Mexico and Arizona shall never get into
the Union. although they are infinitely
more preferable and their claims more
valid than the islands of the sea which
are the immediate usufruct of the policy
of expansion.

wife and son. The party will remain

Before his departure Senator Jones as
sured your correspondent that William j.
BryanS recent visit TO him at Atlantic

The senator also said that the Republican

of Senator Teller. and was much graft
fed upon receiving the assurance that he

tween these two distinguished and con-
Scentious public men there exists the

dence.
Democratic leaders here are certain that
nothing will come of the speculation in
eastern gold newspapers about a change
in the craftsmanship. The friends of silver

Jones for the sturdy fight he made before
