Republic.

The Mountain Lion mill is pounding
away as usual. Its stamps seldom
cease dropping, and then only for
few minutes. There are i've machine
drills working.
The Hercules mine is very promis-
ing property, situated about 800 feet
west of the Republic mine. The vein
on this property was covered with de
bris, and it was through some float
rock of excellent character that it was
discovered.
There is some good looking quartz
coming out of the Silver Dollar. The
claim lies on the east side of Mud lake,
besween the Trade Dollar and Knob
Hill. The shaft is about so feet deep.
From the bottom drift has been run
about 25 feet.
The San Juan hosting is done with a
horse and whip. The shaft is down
100 feet, and is dry at the bottom. The
vein wall is exposed and some punches
of quartz have been developed. A
drift will be run and then a crosscut
will be driven to ascertain the nature
and width of the vein.
James F. Vile, who recently arrived
in Republic, announced a new discov-
cry, made by H. NJ. Jaeger and himself
in the Deep creek country, 10 miles
northeast of Colville, Stevens county,
of an ore vein six feet in width, that
samples one and one-haf ounces gold
and IS ounces silver per ton, with 26
1no6 rrhn 1ie- MORT n
of the Metaline trail, and there is no
other of any kind within six or seven
miles of it.
The crushing machinery in the Re-
public mill is great success and more
than meets the expectations of Expert
d. G. Jackling. 1t will take between
$500 and 5000 tons to fill the ore bins
and the roasters will not all be started
until the bins are full. The first
rooster will be in operation Sunday
and others will follow at intervals un-
til all are running. Tests made Of
the ore show saving of SO per cent
from $25 ore. The higher grade ore
will return still higher percentage.
Flag Hill mine occupies a prominent
elevation, nearly midway between the
Quilp and Morning Glory mines, and
covers three separate veins, which
strike in different directions, and each
of them converging towards common
center The lower one trends along
the base of the hill, striking about &c
degrees east of north. about five feet in
width. 1t is evidently the strongest
of the three veins. but has not been de-
veloped sufficiently to ascertain its ac-
tual width. Its average value, where
exposed, is about S1525 per ton.

MINING NOTES,

The Blue Jacket mine, ne9r Cuprun,
Idaho in the Seven Devils, has tempo
rarily closed down owing to the fact
that the present pumping machinery
was unable to cope with the gradually
increasing flow of water in the work
ings.
The Palmer Mountain tunnel at
Loomis, Washington, is nearing the
3800-foot mark and is again entering
ground that shows good mineral on the
surface. Probably within the next
200 feet it will strike the Golden Bear
vein. Drifting on several veins this
month has shown up some very high
grade ores, and the whole property
never looked better.
At Wallace, Idaho, fire and powder
destroyed the upper works of the Mann
moth mine at the No. tunnel and in
jured three men last week. 1t is sup
posed that the fire originated from q
new electric light plant that was being
installed, and when the alarm was Civ
en- all the men went down the hill ex-
cept three, who remained at the bunk
$50 pounds OF dynamite stored there,
and when the fire reached it the pow
der exploded, wrecking the remaining
buildings and the head OF the tramway
and slightly injured all three of the
men watching the fire The loss to
the company is comparatively slight,
as the workings were practically aban-
doned, the workings on that level be-
ing about exhausted.
Almost on the same parallel as Wal
lace the Panhandle of Idaho suddenly
widens, the Bitter Root range taking
an abrupt turn to the east in its south
ern course. The Occur d'Alene reach
es but short distance east of there
until it meets the head waters of the
ST. Regis, but just over the range to
the south is the st. Joe, which makes
vast inroad into what would other
wise be Montana, giving to Idaho a
vast district, of which but little is
known. That little is that it is filled
with minerals of different kinds.
Barry N. Hiliard and eastern parties
have taken a bond on the Simmons
group on Bear Gulch, Idaho, and have
set about dozen men to work on it.
This is the group on which the discov-
cry of an immense outcrop of galena
was discovered last June, which caus-
ed local stampede. 1t is about seven
miles northeast from Murray, half way
up on the side Of the ridge east from
Butte creek The surface showing is
one of the greatest ever discovered in
the Occur d'Alenes. Although it
stands high above the surrounding
side hill, which is destitute of timber,
and the lead cropping can be seen for
miles, its value was unknown for
years.
1t appears that the ledge on the Gold
Cord in the Keller camp is about 30
feet wide instead of about five feet as
was thought. When the Ledge was
struck month or more ago the hang
ing wall was cut, and after going
through five feet of high grade copper
and silver ore, what was supposed to
be the foot wall was encountered Work
of following the ledge was then begun.
The ore which is between the two rich
veins averages about IS. There is
about 10 feet which gives a very high
average. One assay went % per cent
copper, besides running very high in
silver. Another assay went over $500.
Several tons of high grade ore have
been taken out and saved for shipment

FOOTBALL SEASON STARTED
Yale Beat COIumbin-Harvard De-
feated Carlisle.

New York, Oct. 2S.-Yale defeated Co.
lumbia at Columbia field by the score of II
to 5. 1t was a surprising game of football
as the New Haven boys were expected by
everyone to beat the Columbia team by a
heavy score Columbia started with an
aggressive game, and until eight minutes
of the second half had been played it look
ed as if she would repeat her victory OF
last year over Yale. She hit Yale's line
hard and throughout the first half kept the
ball continually in Yale's territory. Yale
was noticeably slow in lining up while
Columbia was quick. There was no at
tempt by either team at mass formations
or combinations, the straight, old style
football, with runs on the end and at
tacks at the line, being followed. The
teams were very evenly matched as to
weight, though Yale had the advantage in
the center of the line, her trio of Brown.
Oleott and Sheldon, at left guard, center
and right guard, being hard to beat. Co
lumbia made up for this, however, back

Harvard Beat Carlisle.
Cambridge, Mass, Oct. 2S.--lIarvard
defeated Carlisle Indian football team
by II to ). In the first half the Indians
clearly outplayed Harvard, but as usual
i'll the second half they could not keep up
their fast work The Harvard team was
! inferior on the offense and the defense
could not hold the Indians down until late
in the second half The weather was very
poor for football. The crowd, however
numbered 10000, despite the DRILLING
rain. Carlisles offense was peculiar On
all plays from the right side the left side
would get a flying start and pull the
Harvard s end or tackle out OF the play
Then at times the whole left side OF the
line would change over to the right side
of the line. Roberts, as Carlisle's quar-
! ter, was continually coached in his choice
OF plays by Trainer Warner, much to the
disgust OF the crowd. Warner was re-
peatedly warned, but was not put out.
Princeton Won.
Providence, X. L., Oct 28.-A whirwind
of mass plays aimed at Browns left tackle
and guard, game full of life from start to
finish and score Of II to 5 in favor OF
/ Princeton is the story Of the BroWn-Prince,
ton game. No Brown team in her
history OF football ever played harder
or more consistent game than the men put
up against Princeton.

Star Route Mail Service.

The postoffice department has some
trouble in getting bids for carrying the
mails over the star routes in the west.
There has been much complaint of in
efficient mail service on those routes,
which had been secured by speculative
bidders in the east, who took contracts
at prices too low to give efficient serv-
ice. The department, to avoid this trou-
BILE in the future, has issued orders that
bids will be considered only from per-
sons who reside along the routes for
which contracts are to be let. But even
under this regulation great difficulty
has been experienced to get service for
the star routes, and the department Is
in a quandary as what to do to get star
route carriers. The only way out seems
to be to make appointment Of star
route carriers at a fixed salary, the
same as mail clerks on railroad trains
are appointed. The mail service to the
country districts and towns away from
railroads in the west has been poor at
its best, and there should be some new
methods introduced In the western ru-
raj mail service.

Mckinley County.

1t is not a good advertisement for
Gallup and the region around it to as
sert publicly that it is too poor to be
a county seat or to support a county
government. Such statements will not
attract new settlers, and will not invite
capital. If a town or proposed county
stands up before the world and says,
I'VE are so miserably poor, we have so
few resources, we have such poor future
prospects that we cannot accept the gift
of self-government, but would rather
have u county seat a hundred miles
away, would rather pay heavy trans
portation expenses to the county seat,
would rather pay our taxes for the ben
eft of a county seat and county officers
a long distance away" then such sec
ton gives itself a black eye and con-
victs itself of poverty and lack of pub
lie spirit. But the New Mexican be-
lieves that the majority of the people
of the proposed county are in favor of
Mckinley county, that they are capable
of conducting a county government so
economically and honestly that it will
not cost them more in taxes and other
expenses than they now pay by having
the county capital 81 far away from
them. 1t Is a few politicians, backed by
one or two corporations, who are MAX
ing a fight against the best interests OF
the people Of Gallup and of the proposed
new county.

A Wise Move,

Floyd Buell., the Santa Fe county ca
Diet at the New Mexico Military Insti-
tute at Roswell, ranks first among the
cadets at that institution appointed
from counties. Not only in his studies,
but also in his department and discip-
line, he is the peer of any other county
cadet or private student. Santa Fe
county has reason to be proud of this
young man, who represents it so worth
lily at the military institute, who prom
Uses some day to be a man whose name
will be widely known beyond the bounds
of his home town of CerrillOs and the
territory of New Mexico. His selection
as the Santa Fe county cadet reflects
also f%avorably upon the wisdom of the
county board, who decided that a COM
petitive examination was the only just
and good method to select a cadet from
this county to the military institute.
They met much opposition in their in
novation, but Charles w. Dudrow. the
chairman, and Commissioner ]. T. Nc
Laughlin stood to their guns and saw to
1t that a fair and impartial examina-
ton was held, and that after Floyd Blu
ell had demonstrated that he was
worthy to be chosen as the cadet Of
Santa Fee county hat he was appointed.

A Broadening Influence.

The recent international experiences
of the United States have had a per-
ceptible broadening and educating in
fiuence upon the people of this nation.
In former years it was rare to hear an
intelligent discussion of foreign topics,
and even leading newspapers, in COM
menting upon foreign events, made such
ludicrous assertions as to cause merri-
ment abroad. But to-day, on the streets
and in the stores, arguments are heard
upon the open-door policy, upon the
rights of neutrals in time of war. upon
the military situation in the T~ransvaal,
| and kindred subjects. While many OF
| the views expressed are crude or based
| upon imperfect information or preju-
| dice, yet they are generally carefully
| considered and spoken with sincere
| convictions. American people are COM
| ing into touch with the rest of the world
| and are losing hat narrowness of view
| which characterized them until but a
very few years ago.

A Good Business.

The mining business differs from all
other business enterprises. When a new
factory or a new store is opened 1t
means competition, a cutting in prices
and a l%essening in the profits to others
already established in the same bust
ness. A new mine, on the other hand,
means more money, more customers for
the merchants, the manufacturers, the
farmers, the railroads. 1t means addi-
ton to the worlds wealth; it is>a crea-
tor of money and of business, a liberal
buyer of labor and material. There is
no rivalry in the sale of the product, no
throat-cutting competition to secure a
customer. Nor is there a monopoly gen.
orally speaking. The best producing
mine may be duplicated without antag-
onism from other mine owners The
miner is generally a good cash custom
err, consuming the production of every
other industry without competing with
any other producer.

New Mexico has so fine a climate

New Mexico has so fine a climate to
live in. offers so many advantages to
every one within it's bounds, that sui
eide Is seldom heard Of in any of the
New Mexico cities, towns or country
districts. 1t is therefore somewhat Of a
sensation that within a brief period a
young girl at Carlsbad, a young woman
at Aztec and a man at Monero should
decide to shuttle off this mortal coil.
Their reasons for doing 30 are very in
sufficient, and 1t must be that the sui
eide epidemic which started among the
United States soldiers at Manila has
reached this section, and that the three
latest suicides in the territory did away
with themselves not because they were
tired of New Mexico or expected to find
a country with more sunshine beyond
death, but because they had imbibed
the suicide bacillus somewhere. 1t Is
easy to be understood why a suicide
club should exist in Boston. and why
within the last seven days nine of its
members should kill themselves. but 1t
Ii hard to grasp why any mortal being
wants to leave New Mexico forever n

PROTECTION AND SHEEP RAISING.
The Dingley Tariff Has Been of Great Bene-
fit to Wool Growing Industry.


Perhaps no industry has been more
discussed in connection with the con
sideration of'the tariff than hat of wool
growing and sheep raising. 1t is I'M
questionably true that no industry bet
ter illustrates the benefits of protection
and the injurious effects of free trade.
The farmers throughout the country
know whether they can better their con-
dition by raising sheep either for NUT
ton or wool. The official reports cf the
United States government upon the
subject of sheep raising and sheep val
ues teach a wonderful lesson.
From 1878 to 1882 inclusive the Morrill,
tariff (protection) was in force, and the
number Of sheep throughout the coun-
try increased by over II, 900, 900.
The tariff of 1888 was in force from
1888 to 1889 inclusive. The duties i'm
posed by this tariff upon raw wool
amounted to no more than a revenue
tariff on yarns and some other goods
produced from wool; consequently the
result Of this tariff as a whole was not
protective. Under it's operation the
number of sheep throughout the United
States decreased by about 5000, 900.
The Mckinley tariff, passed in 1890,
was a scientific tariff applied to wool
growing, with the result that the num-
Der of sheep throughout the country in
creased by nearly 1900, 900 before the
free trade election of 1892.
The Wilson tariff, with free trade in
wool, practically went into effect when
Mr.. Cleveland was elected, and immedi-
ately the flocks throughout the country
began to decrease, and from 1893 to 1896
decreased by about 5000, 900.
The Dingley tariff reimposed the sci
entiic schedules of the Mckinley tariff,
and with the promise of protection
