Iron Paint for the Farm

The next time you are near freight
ear just take the point of your knife
and try the paint. The reason the paint
is used is because of its wearing and
wood:preserving qualities. Every farm.
er should keep his farm machinery in
repair and well painted. The paint to
use is the best, which will prove cheap
est. The paint which the experience
of railroads has proven the best will
also be found best for the farm. Iron

last assays showed $40 in gold and some
lead and silver, the gold values increasing
as depth is guined.
The shaft will be sunk to 300 feet depth
and two more levels run, all of them at.
least 200 feet. This will fully prove the
vein at this point, and in fact the whole
property, as from this levels can be run
each way for great distance.
Mr.. Hagerty is outside arranging for
the purchase Of machinery and will bring
it in on snow roads this. winter.
A surprise in this property has been
the running out of silver and lead values
and increase in gold as depth is gained.
The ore has turned to free milling. Its
excellent values, with the already large
quantities of ore in sight, has brought
the Six Eagles right in line with the best
prospects in the county.
Mr.. Hagerty has for years held on to
these claims, waiting till he could secure
capital for their development"
Mr.. Young is at the Pacific Hotel,
where he will remain few days, placing
a limited amount of treasury stock at ten
cents share, for the purpose of continu-
ing the development work, and erecting
a quartz mill on the property.

SIX EAGLES MINING COMPANY
Rich Mining Property on
Similkameen River.
ITS PRESENT DEVELOPMENT.
A Promising Property that Is Being
Worked by Spokane and Olympia
Operators-The Spokane Review"
Describes the Property.

E. T. Young, the pioneer hotel man of
Olympia, and one of the leading citizens
of Thurston county, is in the city in the
interest of the Six Eagles Mining Co.,
the property of which is now attracting
much attention in mining circles. The
early history of the claims operated by
this company is very interesting.
Located in 1859 by "Okanogan" Smith,
Olympia capital was enlisted for their
development. After several thousands
of dollars had been expended in develop
ing and prospecting, that part of the
then territory was set aside as an Indian
reservation, by proclamation Of President
Hayes, in 1877. In 1882 the Olympia
stockholders sent Mr.. Young to WASH
ington, where he was successful in con-
vincing President Arthur Of the injustice
done by his predecessor, and of the rich
mineral county embraced in the reserve,
and secured the presidents promise to
throw open the desired strip, which he
did.
Speaking of this property the Spokane
Review recently said:
probably the first mineral locations
in Okanogan county were those made by
"Okanogan" Smith and John Mcdonald.
These two pioneers first found mineral
in this part of the county, then called
the Similkameen, on what is called the
California ledge, the surface showing be-
ing almost identical with the gold
bearing quartz along the Stanislau river
in California. This ledge runs northeast
and southwest through Little Mount
Chapacca, an elevation just south OF the
international boundry line. The Simil-
kameen river runs round its western and
southern bases. The Spokesman-R Review
correspondent recently visited six of
these locations, called the Six Eagles,
upon which Spokane and Olympia par
ties have formed a company, OF which
J. M. Hagerty is general manager, and
are developing them.
This group consists OF six locations and
takes in 1000 feet of the celebrated ledge.
There have been quite number OF
shallow shafts and a 2O0-foot tunnel run
on the Eagle No. and other locations,
but the work under way is on the Eagle
No. s, where Mr.. Hagerty Is sinking a
shaft. This is down ia feet, following
the vein. At 100 feet a level has been
started east. At no place Is this vein
less than three feet wide, and it is full OF
ore and generally fills the shaft. The

WAR TAX REDUCTIONS
Republican Committeeman Adopt Mr.,
Cages Suggestion.
LOOPING OFF $3o,ooO,ooo.
Adjutnnt General Corbin Authorizes
Statement That All Philippine
Volunteers Who Want to Come
viii BE Brought Home.

Washington, Nov. 2t.-The Republican
members of the ways and means com
mttee have decided to make n reduction
Of S30,000,000 in the revenues, the
amount suggested by Secretary Gage.
The day was spent almost entirely iii
going over the war revenue bill. The
schedules on which the reduction shall be
made have not been decided upon.
Adiutant General Corbin authorizes
the statement that it is the intention of
the war department to bring home from
the Philippines TO the United States ev-
cry one of the volunteers who cares to
come and discharge them here on or be-
fore the 1st of July next when, under
the law, the volunteers must be muster
ed out.
1t is the expectation and hope of the
war department that the coming congress
will at an early period in its session en-
act legislation which will enable the de-
partment to replace the present volunteer
force by permanent force of soldiers.
In that case such of the men in the
.anks as care to continue in the service
will be re-enlisted as regulars, and any
vacancies that may exist through the
muster out of the volunteers will be sup
piled by original enlstments in the Unit
ed States.
1t is believed that these enlistments
can be made in time to replace all the
retired Filipino volunteers before the
first of the next fiscal year without caus-
ing any hiatus.

Tho Colombiun Revolution

Washington, Nov. 21.-The develop
ments in the Colombian revolutionary
movement are being watched here with
keen interest as well as with some anx.
iety. This is especially true of the move
ment of the British gunboat Pheasant
from Victoria to the isthmus, where, it is
understood, she is to effect settlement
with the Colombian government for the
seizure of the British merchant ship la
boga by the Venezuelan army as trans
port. The fact that considerable sum
of money was offered to the captain Of
the Taboga for the use of his ship does
not legally offset the protest of the Brit
ish consul against the seizure, so it may
be expected that the Colombian govern
mcnt will be called to severe account.

are showing their appreciation cf Man
ager Dockstader's supreme effort to

The Sohlkes and their troupe of ATchi
Pelagoans have created sensation With
their novel performances. Dick and

Clair have lots of Irish wit and know
how to display it TO advantage. Their
stage settings are apt and their work is
excellent.
The Crane Brothers, the "Nfud Town
Rubes,' and the Claflin Sisters vie with
each other for place at the top of the
list, al being very clever. One Of the
great features, and one the eqnai Of
which is seldom seen on the vaudeville
stage, is the act Of Mr.. and Mrs. Lynn
Welcher, who give a very interesting
and funny sketch from "The Prodigal
Father" Hale and Francis, and MAJ
ziotta are also shining lights of the stage
and their work has been we'll received

tribute largely to the success OF the per-
