UNITED STATES WILL OPPOSE.
Not to Permit Germany to Have
Venezuelan Conling station.

Washington, Oct. 29.-Any attempt on
the part Of Germany to establish coal
ing station in Venezuela or in any other
country OF the western hemisphere will
be opposed by the United States. Such
action would be in violation OF the prin-
ciples of the Monroe doctrine, which. it
is said, the administration IL determin-
led to uphold. Germany is anxious to ac-
quire sites for coaling stations In the
western hemisphere. At the time this
government commenced negotiations for
the acquisition Of the Danish West In
dies 1t was we'll understood In official
circles here that Germany was anxious
to obtain control Of them. and 1t wac
|only the determined attitude OF the pree-
ident that forced her to rellnquish the
designs she possessed on thefe islands.
It has been frequently reported that
Germany was endeavoring to establish
a coaling station on the Brazilian coast.
but no negotiations have been entered
into simply because OF the knowledge
that this government would strongly OBJ
ject to the raising of the German flag in
the western hemisphere.

falling off this year should be as large
as it was last year we would lose sew
eral congressional districts, :" said
Chairman Weaver. looking over this
table. We would have lost six con-
gressional districts in 1898 if the full,
democratic vote had been poiled. This
year there is every reason to believe
that the full democratic vote will be
polled. particularly in the First. Sec
ond, Sixth and Eighth congressional
districts. We want it distinctly UNDER
stood that we have done our full part
at the state headquarters in showing
the republicans of the state what the
conditions are. 1t is impossible for US
to do any more. We are now waiting
to hear from the local workers whose
business it is to bring out the vote. We
expect the best kind of returns from
them. We have had magnificent CO.
operation from the local committee
men and the county chairmen all over
the state. We have nothing to complain
about hope every individual voter
will assist the committeeman every
where by registering and voting early,
so that the time of the committeeman
may be devoted in the afternoon of
election day to looking up the laggards
and getting them to the polls.
It may be confidently stated that all
reasonable doubt as to the result in the
Sixth district has been removed. r.
/ w Clayton, of Oskaloosa. member of
the state central committee from the
sixth district, who is most closely as
sociated with Maj. Lacey in the man
agement of his campaign. was in Des
Moines Saturday and discussed the sit
luation in the district with Chairman
Weaver and others. 1t is we'll known
tha, neither Mr. Clayton nor Maj.
Lacey is rainbow chaser. They are
both careful and conservative men and
| they know the Sixth district thorough
lly. Mai. Lacey believes he will have
/ 800 or 1000 majority. Mr.. Clayton
says it will be anywhere from 1900 to
| i 800, and this is without any imitation
whatever If the claims of the repub-
| lican leaders in the counties were
taken at par. Maj. Lacey would have
an assured majority of more than
$500. Having summed up all these
lclains and made the proper allow
ances for overenthusiasm, these men
and others who know what they are
4 talking about say that there is no room
for doubt about the result. Mai. Lacey
Iihas never yet been mistaken about the
conditions in his district. He has been
going over it all during the campaign,
speaking twice in each county every
week, so as to keep in close touch with
every part OF the district. It has been
as thorough and close campaign as
the district ever saw.
In the Second district the week clos.
ling the campaign will be the liveliest II
a campaign that has lasted two months
! and has been kept up at white heat al

w. L. Gromer and Al Dess returned
home on Tuesday after spending . month
prospecting on the west side OF the
Basin, about forty miles west Of Eureka.
Some few years ago Joel Allison, an I'M
ole OF Mr.. Dees, who owned . ranch 10
that vicinity, brought to Eureka . piece
Of ore. which upon being assayed, was
found to 60 500 in gold to the ton. Mr..
Allison never divulged the exact loca-
sion Of the spot where he found the
sample, and he shortly afterward died
before prospecting any further. Since
then 9 number Of attempts have been
made to locate the bonanza but each at
tempt has resulted in failure.
The deceased told Mr.. Dees that the
sample was taken from the mountain on
the west side of the Basin, but this in
formation is very vague, ss there are
several mountains there which would
answer to the description, and 10 10 now

the treasure will do 30 ~ did the original
finder. II is the generally accepted be-
lief that Mr.. Allison had been prospect
ing below the surface. and broke of the
sample from . concealed ledge. covering
up the excavation and thus conoealing
any evidence of the work done.
Messrs. Cromer and Dees during their
absence prospeoted the entire country In
that neighborhood and found many
promising indications Of mineral. They
located three claims. doing the assess
ment work on two-running . drift into
the mountain side . distance Of thirty
feet and then sinking . shaft ten feet. A
number Of samples which they brought
back looked very promising. but % yet
only one of these has been assaysd. The
result of this was not 1t ell encouraging,
however. showing no value to speak OF,
but the prospectors are certain the ore
is there, and that some day . fortunate
individual will stumble upon the Lost
Mine.

neral took place from the Catholic
church Friday morning. Rev. Father
