From present indicatonsi, within the
next thirteen or fifteen months south
ern California will be t1e scene of new
and important railway developments,
which viii Pile up lots of work for
Huntington and place his present two
routes to the east at great disadvan-
tage.
This little cloud upon the no; 'zon,
which at the present time does no. look
much bigger than a mans hand. is the
proposed bridge between UVada and
Chloride. mentioned in a brief dispatch
three days ago, which, if accomplished,
will bring Los Angeles within twenty
hours of Salt Lake.
An effort is on foot which will be
sprung at the Los Angeles conference
Of interested railroad men, to have the
recently organized Utah, Nevada &
California company make an extension
from the Utah & Pacific terminus at
Uvada and bridge over the 230-mile gap
between that point and Chloride on the
Arizona & Utah line. If this is accom-
plisbed the new CUTOFF between Los
Angeles and Salt Lake will utilize the
Santa Fe tracks from Kingman, AriZ.,
TO Los Angeles via Barstow.
In reviewing the situation the San
Francisco Examiner says;
The Santa Fe has the advantage of
short line to the east. 1t owns a road
all the way from Los Angeles to Chi
cago. 1t is so tied up in traffic COM
bineS with Huntington. however, that
il is not using its shorter route to the
east to fight the Southern Pacific for its
own good and that of the people Of the
south. The Southern Pacific has one
roundabout line to the east, by the
way of FL PasO. Its other circuitOus
line runs north to Mojave, and thence
by the way of Lathrop, Sacramento,
Reno and Ogden. A new line, such as
the route by the way of hingnan and
UVada, would be strong competitor of
the Santa Fe, and make the Southern
Pacific a very weak line for overland
business into and out of southern Cali
<ornia.
Realizing that there will before long
be a road in operation into the south
by the way of Uvada. the Southern
Pacific, week before last, bought the
Carson & Colorado line of D. O. Mills,
so az to make it a cutoff between Los
Angeles and the east. via Ogden. BY
building from Mojave north to Keeler,
the southern terminus of the Carson
q Colorado, and from Mound House,
the latterS northern terminal, north
east to Wadsworth, on the Central Pa
cific, Huntington's new line into the
south will be completed. BY its use
he viii avoid the Sierra Nevada noun
tains. Huntington would not resort to
all this expense did he not know that
at least one more new line win soon
seek its share Of the rich traffic of Los
Angeles and its tributary country.

Democrats Pleased With Work of the
Convention.
Especial Correspondence.)


Mt. Pleasant, March 3.-Demoerats
in this vicinity are highly pleased over
the outlook for their party in the spe-
cial election to be held next month
Yesterdays Heralds were eagerly
sought for. and when they came and it
was learned that King was the man
selected to make the race, a feeling of
satisfaction settled down over the
party here, as they universally claim
that no man in the state can beat him
in the election. And when the news
came in this morning that the Repub-
1canS had nominated Hammond, the
Democrats became even more sanguine,
and even some Republicans have been
heard to express fears that their man
would not stand a very good chance
in the fight This county has been
strongly Republican of late, but the
fact that King is to run for the Demo-
cratic party, and the further fact that
the Sanpete branch of the Republican
party is so decidedly at loggerheads
with the regular state organization
gives the local Democratic leaders the
highest hopes of winning hands down
in the county.

Aqua, March Pixies Diggings is to
the front with an important strike. The
Amethyst, or really the Wild Irish, is
the property that now gladdens the
hearts of all in the camp. The Anne
thyst shaft is almost or the line where
that claim adjoins the Wild Irish. The
south drift from the shaft soon strikes
into the Wild Irish ground, and in this
drift last week fine ore chute was
encountered. Not only did the vein
widen so that its width viii not be

ore increased in value. Your CORE

but II is safe to say they are not less
than so in gold TO the ton.
This property is under bond to James
McFarlane, manager for McCune &
Hoge here and az Deer Lodge. Seven
men are at work now developing il.
Work has been stopped in the shaft on
account of water. which came in at 1872
feet in depth. Where the water was
encountered it came in from a vein
which cut the main vein in an easterly
and westerly direction. II is the full
size Of the shaft, and the quartz pans
wells-rather a strange thing TO find
free gold at water level.
The Wild Irish hill is almost a noun

for surprises at any time as work pro-

Smart Was Fooled.

In connection with the matter of Re
publican disaffeetion here an amusing
anecdote Of the last campaign rs re-
lated 1t concerns Thomas Smart, jr..
a wealthy sheepman OF the county and
a Republican.
According to the story told, Mr.
Smart offered to duplicate any contri-
button made by an individual to the
campaign fund, and when several par
ties contributed $40 each, Mr.. Smart
also put up that amount DESTROYS,
however, of working Mr.. Smart for a
little more than the rest, the county
chairman, it is said, arranged with
Robert Murdoch to have the latter put
up his check for $50. with the under
standing that after Mr.. Smart had
duplicated it, Nj. Murdoch could take
it down again.
This plan, it is said, was carried out
and Mr.. Smart paid the additional $3.50
The county chairman was unable to
keep the secret, however. and not long
ago Mr.. Smart became possessed Of the
facts. He is now out for revenge, and
II IS said viii make every effort 10 de-
feat the Republican party in this cleo
ton.
The one great surprise to people here,
in the report of the Republican con-
Ventlon proceedings, is the statement
that Cache went solid for Hammond,
as quite d number of those who went
down from here were open and avowed
enemies of the secretary Of state. One
or the delegates who has returned
claims that Knowles cast the vote of
the delegation for Hammond without
consulting half the members of it. The
disgruntled Republicans here are loudly
voicing their Dissatisfaction over Ham
monds nomination today, and are
threatening to pull hundreds of votes
away from him in this county.
Agricultural College Presidency.
Another candidate has been pushed to
the front in the fight for the presidency
OF the Agricultural college. and in this
city the opinion is prevalent that the
gentleman will be likely to receive the
appointment if the hard, earnest work
OF a host of friends count for anything.
Professor George Thomas, a member of
the a c faculty is the gentleman re-
Ierred to- Within the past ten days an
active canvass in his interest has been
made by his friends, despite the fact
that he had informed them of a desire
to go abroad for study in the spring;
they say that they can induce him TO
forego this trip if the presidency Of
the college shall be offered him.
Among the friends referred to are
nearly all the members of the college
faculty, many prominent business men
of the county and leaders in both po-
litical parties. Some of the most in
fluential educators of the state, includ-
ing those who live in Salt Lake and
Ogden, ave favorable to Mr.. Thomas
candidacy As to his qualifications. he
is reputed to be a broadly educated
man, and at the head of the city board
of education has demonstrated his
great executive capacity. His selection
would also be quite a popular one. as
he is well liked by the people generally
here. o..
