A unique exhibit was one of the

to refute the aspersions cast upon
the domesticity Of club women which

Chas. B. AycOck The Man FOl
Governor.

Oxford Ledger.
We stand at a most critical period
in the history of North Carolina.
This statement requires no proof.
It is self-evident.
In fact, this is the supreme mo-
ment in our life, as a State Issue con-
fronts US whose settlement means on
the one hand good order, safety of
life and property, in a word, happi-
ness and prosperity; On the other
hand, riot, lawlessness, misery and
degradation.
In the vital struggle for our great
CommonW ealth, personal preferences
and local attachment should be
thrown aside, and the one question
every Democrat should ask himself
is: "Who is the best man, the strong
est man to nominate for Governor to
lead the Democratic, hosts in the
coming campaign?"
We do not hesitate in saying that
we believe that man is Charles B.
Aycock. He has an absolutely clean
record, he is pure in life and charac-
ter. a Democrat who believes in the
principles of Democracy, a man of
great ability, and is by all odds the
ablest political speaker since the
days of the beloved Vance.
In the darkest hour of the Demo-
cratic party. when fusion seemed
seated firmly in the saddle. with
abiding faith in the principles of
Democracy, Charles B. Aycock went
all over the State, and with boldness
and eloquence, never surpassed in
the history Of North Carolina, de-
nounced the horde that had gotten
possession Of the State and stirred
the hearts of the great white man
hood of the State as they had never
been stirred since the immortal
Vance in the memorable campaign of
1876
He is in thorough sympathy with
all classes of our people, He knows
their needs, and possesses all the
| qualifications to give to North Caro-.
lima an administration never sur.
passed in her history. Having been
reared on the farm. and surrounded
in his boyhoo1 days by men who
know what work means, he thus laid
the foundation of a useful and hon
orable career.
If you would know the strong
points of his character, and how he
has borne himself through life, ask
the people of Wayne county, among
whom he was born, and has lived
until now. He is conservative, big
of brain and heart, with an ardent
love for North Carolina, and desir-
ing above all the peace, happiness
and prosperity of her people, Chas
B. Aycock, in the opinion of the
Public Ledger, is pre- -eminently the
strongest man in the State.

The federation has been officially
recognized by the directors of the
Exposition, through its committee,
which has secured floor and wall
space for the exhibit planned and ar
ranged for Federation day. This
will occur some time during the
first week of September. The ex-
hibit is to be made of photographs
of club-officers and club houses, of
vacation schools. Fairgrounds, or
any enterprise conducted by club wo-
men of which it is possible to make
a Photographic showing. There
will be enough club calendars, too,
to show the artistic and comprehen-
sive scope of these little booklets.
On the wall is to be arranged in a
large frame the photographs of the
general officers of the federation, to-
gether with a printed list of State
declarations, and the number of
:. clubs enrolled in each, with the
gross number of women federated
in the general society. This number
is to be in sufficiently large figures
to attract the eye of the most casual

to acquaint the visitor quickly with
the impressive numeral importance

A special from Grangeville states
that the Little Giant mine at Warren
was one day last week sold to Walter
Hovey Hill, trustee, and the deed
was recorded at Mount Idaho the
same afternoon. The consideration
mentioned in the deed is 81, but the
actual consideration is understood to
be 800, 900. A company is now
being formed to take over the pro-
perty, but it is not known whom Hill
represents in the matter. He re-
Gently returned from Warren and
brought out some 40 pounds of Lit

to $4,000 per ton. This property is
considered one of the best in the

Of years. The aggregate amount of

One Of the Big Mines Which the Road Would

RAPID RIVER, June 25, 1900

lehTlD III VEN, CuuC 20, lOOO.
Editor Signal. A brief descrip-
ton of this very interesting portion
of Idaho may be of interest to YOU
and the readers of the Signal, all the
more so probably, from the fact that
but little remains to be done to fin
ish thoroughfare that will COM
plete the connection between north
and south Idaho. This accom-
plished, Weiser and the country
intermediate would be in position to
advance their commercial interests
largely, and acquire new factor of
business Importance equal, if not su
perlor, to any now enjoyed. The
present conditions and the certainty
of largely increased population in
the near future, places this beyond
conjecture. The situation is such
that the business interests of Weiser,
dHu, Ill idCU, XII VI w dSuiiStOu
county, should take immediate ac-
tion to do their part and remove the
slight barricade that prevents that
business extension that all commun-
tiles must have in order to advance
and keep abreast of the times. 1t
means circulation and health instead
of congestion. Waiting on the move
ments of railways has proved rather
disappointing, and the old fable of
''the field mouse and the farmer"
must have been devised for occasions
, like the present. The resources of
the two sections are 80 different that
the necessary interchange of COM
modities would be mutually bene-
fetal, and increase indefinitely.
Now, few words regarding the
present visible resources of this To-
cality. Mining is of the first i'm
portance, and the present summer
will see great advances made on
known properties and new discov-
cries are reported daily. Prospect
ors are as actively engaged as the
rugged formation of the country
will permit One of the most not
able and promising properties that l
have seen is the Sampson group,
which comprises eleven claims, and
all show mineral of high grade, and,
incomprehensible as it may seem, the
main ledge is fully 800 feet wide.
The property is owned by the Samp-
son Group Mining and Milling Com
pany, with general offices at Spo-
kane, W. A. Irwin, superintendent,
has full charge of the local affairs of
the company and is conducting the
business in proper conservative
manner. The property has been
thoroughly prospected and two tun-
nels run one 200 feet, and the other
in which work is now progressing,
110 feet. At present this latter
shows good ore practically the entire
distance and that shows an average
assay of $50. 1t is concentrating
proposition, but this is made very
simple and practicable from the fac
that company own and control al
unlimited water power and the trans
portation from the mine to the mil
site down hill and to what goot
and practicable wagon road can b.
constructed, and the power als'
used for the development of tn
mines. The distance from the mine
to the mill site is about three fourth
of mile. The timber supply Of

President Barton Gives Reasons for Action
of Board of Directors.

of the original amount paid in as the
balance in the hands of the Treasurer
will pro rate Which amount will be,
after all bills against the Company have
been paid, at least 70 per cent of the ac-
tual amount paid for such stock

est possible pro rata for the stock, SO
kindly toward your certificate endorsed
TO the Company to this office, upon re-
ceipt of which check will be forwarded

Yours respectfully,
FRED H. MERRITT,
Secretary.
Speaking of the suspension of op-
erations by the company, President
Barton stated that it was the result
of careful deliberation after thor
ough canvas of the situation and a
visit to the mine. He said that it
was wonderful prospect and might
be the biggest thing going, but con
sidering all the conditions of isola-
ton, expense of developing and the
terms demanded by the Caswell
Brothers on some entirely undevel-
oped properties, together with other
conditions, Mr.. Barton thought the
action of the board of directors the
safest thing to do at this time. One
of the main obstacles was that pay
ment of SO, 600 will be due the Cas-
wells in few days and which the.
are not willing to allow to run. Mr.
Barton wanted to go ahead and de
velop the property and prove tn
suppositlons from the surface pros
poets, making the payments whe
the permanent value of the propertie
were fully established. This, Gas
wells refused to acquisce in, demand
:, ing the payment. While they nigh
risk their own, the managers of tn
company did not care to risk othe
peoples money to the extent neces
sary on property entirely undevelop
ed and only the surface prospects t
back it although the latter were ex
tremely Elusive. In addition to tn
$4,000 payment the mill would cos
$4,000 erected making $21, 90
more expenditure to be made on sui
face appearances These, Mr.. Bal
:, ton states, are the reasons for whs
!, he feels is the proper course undt
