A. q. Grossman, of the Coarse Gold
Mining Company, came up from the

found in the deep gravel on the com
pony's claims about four miles from
the river. The gold is very fine, but
bedrock has not yet been reached. The
claims extend from the mountain to
the river, a distance of about eight
miles. In the upper part of the ground
the gold is very coarse, but water is
not to be had at the mines and no
work can be done without water, as the
gravel is softly cemented together, and
will have to be run through sluice
boxes to separate the gold from its

THE CONCLUSION.

Before long the vast foreign commerce
Of the United States will be carried
over all seas in American ships, We
shall make the Pacific Ocean the great
highway Of trade with Asia. We shall
uuite the Atlantic with the Pacific by
a ship canal, although we are as slow
about this work Of obvious necessity as
we were tardy in constructing q rail-
way to the Pacific Ocean, but
we built the railway and will
build the canal. and it will
be an American canal The dnan-
oLal center Of the world will be found
before many years. In this country. We
shall supply Europe with timber and
coal and iron and steel, those vital
sinews Of modern industry, as we now
feed her people. Electricity will double
the power now employed In American
industries. The educated workmen OF
this country, products Of our free
schools, will enable our manufaotureS1
and miners to control the markets OF
Europe and Asia. Education will be
in the future as IL has been in the past ,
the magical source Of our progress and
power. Let the new South accept this
revelation. utilize it in oil her indus
tries. profit BY 1t In all her superb op'
portunities. Let the new South educate
her laborers, and her advance In oil

After q moments thought, he said:

This question received a strong negative
reply. He then asked the consuls to wire
to their respective admirals to respect his
own flag and to allow him q safe conduct
to Pekin. He was evidently exceedingly
anxious about the minister's, for returning
to the subject, he said:

He added that he realized his govern
ment had done wrong and that 1t was to
show his grave displeasure that he sent

ing the cooperation of the allied powers

choice which to credit
Thus James Wilson, secretary of agri-
culture in President Mckinley's cabinet
summed up Americas necessity in the
present stage of the Chinese crisis. He
had been to Iowa to attend Senator

the Auditorium.
II do not think the President intends
a series of cabinet meetings as he goes

There is no need of them. The troops
