Promising Quartz Claims

Mr.. ]. M. Moore left Tues.
day for some quartz locations
which he made last Novem.
Der on Fall creek on the south
side of Salmon river about Il
miles southeast of Florence.
These claims are situated only
one and a half miles from the
state wagon road, on the high
mountains at the head of Fall
creek, and are without doubt
the source of the rich placer
mines which were worked on
that creek 20 years ago.
Diligent search has been made
| for these quartz veins for
many years past, and Mr..
Moore is of the opinion that
the prospectors were thrown
off the scent by the fact that
the veins run east and west,
while the prospecting has
been.d done from the north and
south. Mr.. Moore made six
locations on three parallel
lodges, which are eight feet
wide and give values of $S.2t
per ton in gold with a trace ol
silver, all from the groupings
The formation is contact oi
granite and schist and Judging
from the looks of the ore there
are going to be some gole
mines developed in that min

vided for in the bill, drawing only
two per cent interest per annum,
before such bonds are
issued have advanced in the market
to be taken when issued to about
$1.05 for every dollar of which the
lace of the bonds represent. This
is the sad calamity ;esulting from
the much condemned gold standard.
It is quite possible that bonds of
the United States issued payable
in geld coin would sell in the mar
ket at par drawing only one and
one, half per cent per annum.
This, however, is the demo-popu-
list idea of weakness and untold
forebodings of calamity prognostica-
tions, but it is certainly satisfactory
to an industrious, prosperous, con-
tented and healthy people. Those
affected with bad liver and general
calamity ideas, however, regard
these passing events las ominous of
evil. People, however, differ in
their views of public questions.
1t would be a curious country in
deed if all were imbued with ex-
actly the same conclusion.

DR.. Aug. c. Kinney, of Astoria,
thinks there is grave danger of a
plague epidemic in this country,
and does not deem it wise for the
people to rely upon quarantine
measures alone. DIR. Kinney, as
well as the other physicians of that
city, are urging everyone to kill all
the rats about their premises, and
when they are destroyed they claim
it would be better also to kill all of
the cats, as precaution to prevent
the introduction of the plague into
this country. They suggest that it
is important that Astoria, Portland
and all other Pacific coast cities
take such action promptly, for their
own protection and to prevent the
spread of the disease throu ghout
the United States.

The great efforts being made by
Bryan democrats, populists, and
others to unite in fusion for cam
paign purposes, does not seem to
rest upon the idea of promoting any
genuine principle except the desire
to create better prospect of ac-
quiring official position. Only a
few years ago the democratic party
was extremely positive in declaring
for metallic money and against,
paper as a circulating medium
while the shiboleth of the populists
party was an irredeemable paper
currency issued directly by the
government. Now they both unite
upon vagarY as apparent as the
populist idea of irredeemable paper
by declaring for the free coinage Of
silver at the ratio of 16 to 1 which
is founded upon equally as false an
economic idea as an irredeemable
paper currency. During the war
the validity of the greenback was
contested and fought through the
Supreme Court of the United States
upon the idea and party declara-
tions of the democratic party at
that time claiming that the issue
of the greenbacks was unc onstitu-
tional. The republicans cl claimed
that it was lawful and proper as a
war measure, to assist in supplying
the means to carry Oh the war.
The Supreme Court as is well
known held with the latter idea.
