AT LONG RANGE
More Horses Than Men Are Killed In
War,

In the Franco German war, 1870, at
Gravelotte, the German cavalry lost 200
horses and 100 men, while their artll-
lery lost 1900 horses and $50 men. At
yrinville, terribly fierce battle, the
German cavalry lost 1000 horses and
400 men, while their artillery lost
/ 1000 horses and 730 men; but at the
battle of Woerth the German cavalry
lost only so horses to 60 men. This
shows that when the fighting is close
and hot the men fall in greater num-
bers than the horses. From the rela-
tive loss of men and horses you can
tell whether it was a defeat or vic
tory: for in victory the difference
between men lost and horses lost
would not be very great, while In de-
feat and retirement the loss Of horses
would be immense. In a Well-con-
tested hand-to-hand fight of cavalry
tha loss of horses is about equal to
tho loss of men. When the British
troops we're engaged in the Peninsular
war they lost in each of the fifteen
battles an average of eighteen horses
to nineteen men. showing fierce and
close fighting. On the other hand, the
loss of horses is very great where the
cavalry have to 60 long distance over
omen ground before delivering the
charge, as they are exposed to the ene-
my's fire. At Fontenoy the French
killed 81 British cavalrymen and 337
of their horses

he was very hostile, but eventually he

STORIES OF CARLYLE.

On one occasion Carlyle had been
reading some Of the Bible with
friend, says st. Andrew, and his voice
thrilled at the passage which tells how
those who desecrated the temple with
their buying and selling were driven
with scourge out Of it's precincts.
Closing the book, he burst out in en-
thusiastic admiration: THAT was
gran, man, gran! He was name o.

was reverence even under the abrupt
simplicity Of the words. l happened
to enter into conversation at Ecclefe-

small farmer, class. To remark of
mine that 1 was surprised to see the

other little story was told me by one
who had the pleasure of calling upon
Carlyle in London not long before the

GREAT GOLD STRIKE.

Butte, Mont, Dec. I6.-A great
gold strike has just been made at
Virginia City, in Madison county,
by c.. A. Damours, a young chem
ist and minera1ogist from Canada,
who has a lease and bond on an
old quartz mine known as the
Kearsarge, which IS located at the
head Of the gulch. .:.
In yearspast more than $I2o, ,ooo-
600 in gold has been taken out of
the p1acers of the gu1ch, and after
the ground has been worked out
young Damours conceived the idea
that somewhere at the head of the
gulch was one great gold quartz
lode which had been, feeding the
placers.
He spent several years in max
ing investigations in the destrict
and finally took a lease on tue Kear-
sarge and for year he has been
working in the old mine secretly
and alone.
A few days ago he took up the
bond and acquired title to it, and
it now develops that he has in fact
discovered the mother lode, and ex-
tperts who have been permitted to
inspect his find say. that he has a
:million dollars worth of ore in sight
now and that the: indications are
that the greatest deposit of gold
quartz in the known world has
tbeen uncovered. +:'. '. -.:. f-..

he is IT. FOR 1904.

1t appears as though William
Jennings had gone into training for
a. third race. His campaign for
1904 has already opened by a series
OF interviews, magazine and news
paper articles, all going to show
how base, mendacious and ignorant
the majority Of the American peo-
pie are and how noble, wise and
patriotic William Jennings is. At
present it really appears as though
the crown of thorns and the cross
of gold will four years hence again
be. the leader of the reform Democ.
racy and again lead it down to a
glorious defeat. There is no other
leader in sight, save and alone that
grand old Democrat Richard Crok-
er' of whom William Jennings pro-
claimed: "Great is Tammany and
Croker is its prophet" What
could be more eloquent, more ten
der and touching. "The cross of
gold and crown of thorns" becomes
a mere commonplace alongside of
this last utterance which has the
merit and advantage of being strict
ly original. "Great is Tammany
and Croker is its prophet" is a
Chaste and beautiful sentiment, and
should be emba1med-anointed and
impregnated with antiseptics-with
a view to preserve it from putrifac-
ton until the next Democratic Ma
tiona1 convention. 1t could then
be used for paramount issue. It
is a so1ace to think that William
Jennings with his wealth of speech
and depth of sentiment will be with
us again i'll 1904 proclaiming the
gospel of hate and arraylng the

REMEMBER THIS.

In connection with the reorgan-
ization of the Pioneer Irrigation
District there is one point to which
we would call particular attention.
The petition together with the de-
scription of the district which is
now being published id TIE TRIB-
uNE will be presented to the county
commissioners ON January rs, 1907.
When the petition is presented the
commissioners will set a time for a
hearing which shall not be less
than 30 nor more than 80 days af-
ter the presentation Of the petition.
AT this hearing the commissioners
are empowered to exclude from the
proposed district any lands which
will not be benefited by the pro-
posed irrigation system. The com
missioners are also empowered to
change the boundaries of the dis
trict by exclusion of lands not ben
Gifted or by the admission of other
lands into the district. It's there.
fore important that everybody in
this vicinity should carefully exam
inc the boundaries as published in
The TRIBUNE and ascertain wheth-
er OF not his or her land is within
or without said boundaries. If
within and the owner has. just
cause for getting out, he should ap-
pear before the county commission
ers at the time set for the hearing
and show cause i why his; lands
should be excluded. IF the land
Of any person is without the boun-
daries of the proposed. district and
such person desires to be within,
he should appear before the COM
missioners asking to have his land
included. 1t must be borne in
mind that after the commissioners
have once fixed the boundaries they
cannot be changed to afterwards
exclude any lands which have been
Incorporated within the district.
We would impress this fact on all
concerned, and hope that those who
read The TRIBUNE will take some
pains to en1ighten those who do
not. All owners of land who can
not be served by the proposed irri-
CATION system, should appear be-
fore the county commissioners, at
the time fixed by them for the hear
ing, and have their lands excluded.

ables the mine owners to keep Out
the undesirable and disturbing ele'
