MINING NOTES.

The tunnel on the DEBORAH mine, in
the Seven Devils, Idaho, has cut the
vein. The vein was located by the dia-
mond drill and the tunnel has also al
ready found the ore which it will fol-
low. There will be 1900 feet of ground
over the tunnel when it shall have been
over the crest of the hill. The lode
at the point where the tunnel has
struck it is 40 feet thick.
There is considerable excitement at
Weippe, Idaho, over a quartz discov-
cry near that place and a stampede is
promised. The quartz carries high
values in gold and silver. Mr.. Wells
says a Wisconsin company has a man
in that section buying all the timber
land that can be obtained and that
he has already spent $4,000 for tim
Der land. A large sawmill is to be
erected at the mouth of Lo 10 creek
and will begin operations early next
spring.
The crosscut tunnel on the Headlight
at Wallace, Idaho, is in $50 feet. It
has already cut through the Little Chap
vein, finding considerable galena in it.
That vein lies from 300 to 400 feet
south of the Standard and Mammoth
vein, and has produced some ore in
Mammoth ground directly east of the
Headlight. Where the Headlight tun-
mel is there was no depth, it having
been found soon after the workmen
were in solid ground, showing up there
rs feet between walls.
The Blake brothers shipped carload
OF ore from the Yankee group last
week. This group of claims is on Big
creek, south of the Polaris. It has been
worked for years in a small way, max
ing occasional shipments Ore shoots
have been discovered on each of the
three claims, all with the same general
characteristics. All are small. running
but a few inches in width of shipping
ore, but it is the richest galena ever
found in the Occur d'Alenes. It Yields
about the average amount of lead and
from $50 to $50 ounces of silver to the
ton.
The directors of the Amador at Wal
lace, Idaho, are considering two pro.
BD'A'ipAA9 iOl LllE CItCllUH Oh a COnpen-
traitor on their property at Iron Noun
tain, with the probability that one or
the other will be accepted. Should
both be rejected an air-compressor will
be put up, and concentration be added
a little later, although it is probable
that the entire plant will go in at the
same time and be ready to run by the
end of the year. The company al
ready has 1000 tons of good copper ore
on the dump, which Aas been taken out
in doing development work and it IS
calculated that there is enough copper
in it to pay for a concentration of the
size contemplated-one with a daily
capacity of from 40 to 60 tons of crude
ore.
The Idaho Little Giant company at
Warrens has purchased the five-stamp
mill which was formerly used on the
Poorman mine in Florence, and the
mill will be running in its new loca-
tion by October l.

name you a leader like that
When in 1876. the powers of darkness
held us in iron bands, the people looked
! towards the setting of the sun for the
champion of the cause Of our womanhood,
| and our civilization, and the Lord gave
us the great tribune of the century and
deliverance came through him.
! In this year of 1900, when history has
repeated itself, we turn our faces toward
the rising sun and behold our deliverer
cometh.
About forty year ago in a family of
study natives of this State, the next Gov
ernor of, North Carolina was born. He
came of a stock of people who believe in
the final perseverance of the saints, pay
their debts and vote the Democratic
ticket. and he follows in their footsteps.
AS he grew up there were no rich people
in the South, so far as money was con-
cerned, but he was rich in the vigorous
body and mind he improved his opportuni-
ties. He graduated at the University and
entered the legal profession and for more
than dozen years he has been in the
public eye. When the tocsin of political
warfare has sounded for years he has
been in the midst of the fight and always
on the right side.
True TO his race and true 10 his an
cestry and true to posterity, Why should
| tell you about him? All North Carolina
knows him. AT fit leader for the white
men of the State, and what more could

THE KENTUCKY CONTEST
A T:eup in the States Business
Seems Inevitable.
TAYLOR DEFIES LEGISLATURE.
The Democratic Majority Having
Ratified Their Action Declaring
GOcbcl Governor, the Republican
Governor Denies Legality of Action

Frankfort, KY, Feb. 20.-The impress
sion that the contest over the COVER
nOrship will not be ended till 1t Is
fought to a finish In the courts Is not
lessened by the action taken by the
Democratic senators in their session
yesterday ratifying their former action
BY which Senator Goebel was declared
governor. The Republicans who spoke
for Republican Governor Taylor said
that he would not recognize as legal
the proceedings taken yesterday. and
which were duplicated in the house to-
day, but has told them that he looks
upon these proceedings as illegal and
will not quit the fight until the whole
matter is passed upon in the courts of
last resort His position Is that, the
former proceeding being void. the pres
ent ratification gives them no legal vi
tality, that the legal presiding officer,
Lieutenant Governor Marshall, had de-
Clarcd the session adjourned when the
vote in the senate was taken. and that
tie vote should have been taken by
yeas and nays. as in the case of a bill
or joint resolution.
Negotiations to settle the conflict be-
tween Lieutenant Governor Marshall
and Senator Carter over the chair in
the senate went on again yesterday af-
ttrnoon, but no agreement has been
reached so far. There Is talk among
tie Democratic senators of voting on
the ratification of the resolutions to-
cay in the senate by yeas and nays.
These resolutions yesterday received
the support of q senator's, two more
than quorum.
The state contest board ia expected
to render a decision by Saturday seat
ing the Democratic contestants for
minor state Offices. The Democratic
contestants will then be sworn In and
will make a formal demand for posses
sion of the offices. This will be re-
fused by the Republican incumbents
and injunctions similar to those pend
Ing In the courts over the governor
ship will be filed.
The most important immediate ef-
feet OF this will be to tie up securely
every branch of the state government
pending settlement of the contests by
the courts, as 1t Is generally regarded
as certain that banks. county officials
and everybody else who have financial
business with the state will refuse to
recognize either set of state officials
till the title to the offices is judicially
ascertained.
