Portland, Ore, June 6-Belated ie-
turns from remote sections of the
state cannot change the result of the
election on Tuesday nor can they lessen
the importance of the decisive repub-
lican victory. The nation has been
watching the outcome of the election,
as it is the first test, in al important
sense, of the feeling of the people on
the question of expansion" as the re-
Idblicans call it. or imperialism" as
fusionists, under the direction of Mr..
Bryan, are pleased to term the new is
sue. 1t will be several days yet before
TIE complete returns are announced,
but it is now certain that the state is
republican by a majority over the COM
bined fusion forces of from 10000 to
1900. The returns as they come in
ere increasing rather than reducing
the republican majority.
Complete returns from the city of
Portland show that Rowe, republican,
is elected mayor by 1913 plurality. The
vote for mayor is as follows:
Rowe, republican, 1851; Story, in>
dependent republican, 3,61S; Wells,
democrat, 1861.
The four fusion state senators in
Multnomah county are elected. and Of
the lower house members the republic
ans get five and the democrats seven.
George E. Chamberlain, democrat. is
elected district attorney of Multnomah
county by 952 plurality. All the re-
malnder of the republicans, both on the
city and county tickets in Multnomah
county are elected.
The republicans will control both
branches of the legislature, and will
have a majority of twenty-five on joint
ballot. The two houses will be made
mp as follows:
Senate-Rqpublicans. SO; opposi-
ton, 10.
House-Republieans, SO; opposi-
ton, "a.
The woman suffrage amendment is
defeated.
The particular significance Of the
election lies in its first test vote any
where in the nation on the question Of
expansion. This has been a test vote.
The f~usionists made it so. "Anti-im-
perialism' has been the backbone Of
their campaign. While the Chicago
platform Of 1896 has been reaf,irmed
n the trusts have been attacked in
county and state platforms, the state
leaders and national leaders of Mr..
Bryan's party, with whom there has
been constant communication, agreed
in the beginning to make Imperial
ism the paramount issue, and that line
has been followed.
The result, therefore, to a degree un-
usual in connection with state cleo
lions in presidential years, must be
taken as a sign Of what the people Of
the whole country think of expansion.
The test has been uncomplicated with
local issues Of consequence and apathy
has been unknown. Even in presiden-
tial years the interest seldom rises so
high.
The registered vote of the state for
the test was more than 100 5000, or 20
per cent higher than the total vote in
1896, the high water year.
To make the test more conclusive,

cHECKMATE CONDITIONS
Superintendent Wyman Comes to the
City For a Conference.
CBoise Statesman.)

80 1N[~[IAAA1Arg
George H. Wyman, superintendent of
the Creckmate mine. left yesterday for
Salt Lake to consult the directors of
the company. The new level, $50 feet
down, recently opened up in the Check
mate, holds ore as rich as that in the
upper workings The ore above is
very rich
Superintendent Wyman said yester-
day the new mill would probably be
ready for operations in about two
weeks. When it is completed the CON-
pany will have ten stamps, and as the
ore does not have to be ground very
fine, sixty 10 seventy-ive tons a day
can be crushed 1t has been difficult
TO keep the stamps in ore all the time,
as al the ore has to be hauled to the
surface by means Of a horse power

Again, there have not been enough
levels in which to work, any minor ac-
cident in one or more Of the levels re
suIting in a great diminutioD Of the
output
Still, with all the obstacles, the mine
has been shipping an average Of five
carloads of concentrates and one Of raw
ore a month
A forty-horse-pOwer house that is
now on the ground viii he installed as
soon az possible, and with the d
tionaI stamps, viii result in a wonder
full increase in the output of the mine.
In the new level Mr.. Wyman says he
has drifted about sixty feet. He says
the ore is the same rs that above,
which means a great deal

MR.. II
Progress Made at Captain De La
mars California Mines.

A4444C0s
Hartwig A. Cohen, the general fnan-
cial manager Of the De Lamar mines.
came in from California last night.
where he has been for several weeks
looking after matters in connection
With the captains Bully Hill copper
property in Shasta county, and the
Cold Mountain property in San Ber-
nard1no county. Speaking of the Bully
Hill mines, Mr.. Cohen stated that ev-
eTything is running along smoothly.
and preparations are being made TO
build the new smelling plant there this
year to treat the great bodies of ore
developed in the property since the
proposition was taken up something
over a yea ago.
The contracts have been let to George
0. Bradley of the Gates iron works for
the equipment Of the fOrty-stamp mill
to be erected at the San Bernardino
gold property, and the plant viii be
hurried along to completion as rapidly
as possible.
Asked in reference TO the scheme for
a consolidation Of the Golden Gate
and Mercur mines, which means moth
ing more or less than a purchase of the
great Mercur property by Captain De
Lamar, provided the captain and John
DeTn, who is now in Europe, can agree
on a consideration that would be sat
~isfactory to the Mercur stockholders.
Mr.. Cohen stated that he has received
no cablegramS from the captain indi-
eating that any such change is to
come about. In fact, he pleaded ig-
norance of the whole matter, and de-
clared that he had received more in
formation from the newspapers than
he had from the captain himself.
The report published in a San Fran
cisco paper hat Mr.. Oman had left
the employ of the De Lamar company
is untrue. He is still officiating in the
capacity of general superintendent of
the Bully Hill mines.

BOOMING NoEB GOLD FIELDS.
Millions Being Subscribed In London
to Operate Them.

According to a special to the Chicago
News from London, Englishmen have
gone crazy over Cape Nome. A large
number of promoters are repOTtedSO
have been actively at work across the
pond for several weeks, and they have
been meeting with great success.
Frank Schwartz of Seattle, n of
the large number of men working the
London field, is quoted by the News
correspondent as follows:
MY personal knowledge of the sub
ject leads me to believe that at least
so, 600, 900 Of British money has been
devoted this year to exploring and min
ing in Cape Nome. One company in
which l am interested has a capital Of
$500, 900. I know twenty such compa-
MES. 1 have just returned from two
years prospecting and stalking claims
at Cape Nome. l think it is the richest
gold country in the world. The Klon-
dixie Is insignificant compared TO it.
"A great deal of French and Ger
man money has been invested in Cape
Nome and there is more coming from
these sources. Late in April a whole
shipload of capitalists from Europe will
sail on an expedition to Cape Nome to
investigate conditions for themselves

JOE BOWERS
Directors Met Last Night and Dis
cussed Conditions.

The directors of the Joe Bowers Elk
tention Mining company held a meet
ing last night and passed upon some
routine matters. It was thought by
some that it would be decided to levy
another assessment, but the matter was
not discussed.
4 report from the management of
the mine vas submitted, showing a
pleasing condition Of affairs. In fact,
the property is reported as being in a
much better shape than at any time in
its history. On the lower levels an
e~ignteen-inch vein Of good concentrat-
ing ore has developed. Since Dec. L last
over 500 feet Of development work has
been performed, including the fixing up
and timbering of the old workings.
The company has received patents
for all its property Excepting the Els
tella claim, which was in dispute with
the Durham estate or Milwaukee, but
that difficulty having been settled up,
it is only a matter of a little time be-
fore patents viii issue for that claim
also, thers being no more conflicts.

The Ophir Mining & Milling company
is now in full possession of it's Stateline
properties. Up to. yesterday the only
title the corporation had was nothing
more than a bond and lease, which was
obtained something Like a year ago.
Payments have been made from time
TO time, but yesterday there was de-
posted in Mccormick & Co.'S bank the
sum of $500 to the credit of Ben
Sprenger and associates, and the deeds
to the ground were accordingly re-
leased from escrow.
The final payment was not due yes
terday. The bond and lease had some
time yet to run, but Mr.. Sprenger and
his partners were enabled to get their
money sooner than expected on ac-
count OF the deal consummated in De-
froit. Mich, several weeks g by NJ.

frolt syndicate, has been in the city

that the titles to the property are per-
tect, and now that the bond and lease
has been raised, he viii leave at once
Tor the mine TO map out a vigorous
campaign of development. It is under
stood that the equipment of the mine is
to be materially improved. A new hoist
ing plant is to be erected and machine
drills are to be put in, all to. be oper-
ated by compressed air. While the
shaft is being put down to a depth of
BOO feet, the various levels will be de-
veloped and explored for the purpose
OF blocking out ore to be treated ON
the ground in the mill to be built a
little later on
The Ophir is located only a short dis
tanee from the Johnny mine, from
which such sensational gold values
have been obtained recently. With the

Crescent Hill Directors to Meet In
This City.

From one Of the directors in the
Crescent Hill company, which was in
c-orporated last fall to operate the old
Crescent mine and other properties ad-
Joining. in Uintah mining district, it is
learned that David .. Erwin, president
of the company. is expected TO arrive
from Muskegon, Mich, any day, and
as soon as ne reaches here the directors
will be called together, a plan of ac-
tiou will be mapped out and the mines
started up without delay. The com
many owns one of the most valuable
blocks of ground in the whole Park City
district. and its addition to the active
list of mines in that great camp will
raise it another notch in the scale Of
prosperity which il is now enjoying.
The old Crescent mine has produced
an immense amount of ore in years
gone by, and il can be truthfully said
that the ground has been hardly
scratched as yet. its deepest workings
being little more than 400 feet beneath
The surface. A strong company is now
in possession of the property, and with
proper equipment and intelligent direc-
lion it should not be more than a year

ORE BLOCKED OUT.
California Property Park City, Ready
to Join the Shippers.


Wilson I. Snyder of Park City, who
is in the city on legal business, speaks
most e-ncouragingly of the outlook for
the California mine, at the head of
Thayne's canyon, in the Uintah dis
trict. Work has been progressing all
winter, and within the next few days
connections or the vein between the
upper and lower workings will have
been made. The big vein has been
drifted upon for 400 feet in the lower
tunnel, and for a like distance aoove,
and as soon as connections are made,
200 by 400 feet of stopping ground can
be said to have been blocked out.
The ore, Mr.. Snyder says, aside from
it's gold, silver and lead values, con-
tains on the average quite a large per-
centage of zinc, but. with other pro-
ducers Of zinc-beariEg ores. he looks
forward TO the successful cOnsumma-
ton Of plans by Walter f. Grace, the
Denver metallurgist, for the treatment
of lust such ores as the California,
Crescent, Anchor, Daly-West, Glencoe
and other Park City mines contain in
abundance. With thai gentleman's
plan natured, Park City's production
and most likely will be increased
from 500 to 1000 tons per day.

MERcUR's INCREASED OUTPUT
Over 1000 Pounds of Cyanides From
Last Cleanup.

Inc Mercur company reported at the
gold sdmpling rooms of the CONSOLIDATE
ed Kansas City Sampling & Refining
company yesterday with 1850 pounds OF
~cyanldes, h product of the mill for the
last halr of March. The shipment was
the largest ever made by the
on a similar run, and means that since
the remodeling and enlargement of the
mil IT'S earning capacity has been in
creased abou one-fourth. The limit
mas not yet been attained, however. as
the maximum mount of ore which the
mill is capable of handling cannot vet
be supplied on account OF the limited
hauilng capacity of the railroad be-
tween the min and mill. When this
oefect IS remedied-and it will be soon
the plant viii be turning out close to
5,00O pounds of c~yanides, worth between
$50 and $40 per pound, every month.
