Bryan's Running Mate.

Chicago, April 9.-Robert f. Pattison
OF Pennsylvania for vice president is the
very latest thing in democratic national
slate-making. William Jennings Bryan's
staunchest supporters in the party's ma

The first hint heard here of the Bryan
Pattison combination came from a recent
visitor to Washington. Highest sources
of democratic information available in Chi
cago treat it in a way that is tantamount
to confirmation.

MINING NOTES,

A strike which bids fair to be of even
more Importance than that of the Ma
Mia was made a few days ago on the
Caledonia, near Keller, Wash, owned
by Dan and Alex. McMaster.
There are hundreds of locations In
close proximity to Baker City that own
ers can make pay their own develop
ment and a surplus by being afforded
this opportunity to have their ore
treated at a fair cost.
A remarkably large gold bearing
ledge has recently attracted attention
to the Rapid river district, which is
the north slope of the Seven Devils
range In Idaho. This mammoth ledge
of low grade ore Is said to be 500 feet
wide and to extend for a mile and a
half. There are very few as large bod
les of mineral bearing quartz in the
country. and it Is attracting particular
| interest on this account The ledge
was located by w. A. Irwin in 1896.
The No. tunnel on the Keep Cool
mine on Lake Pend d'Oreille is enter
ing the vein. This tunnel is crosscut
which will give depth on the vein of
400 feet. In its course it has crossed
several small veins and stringers all
dipping toward the main ore body.
The Keep Cool carries a pay streak of
high grade ore, which has been opened
for an average width of five feet on all
the upper levels, and it is the expecta-
ton that it will be shortly encounter
ed in this level. The Conjecture mine
which is in the vicinity of the Keep
Cool, is to resume.
There is excitement in Reddy gulch,
Idaho. The two rich strikes of galena
and carbonates on the Alice vein right
upon the surface have stirred the dis
trict and there has been a stampede to
the gulch. The vein has been traced
and staked all the way through to the
top of the hill just east of Canyon
creek. 1t is farther south than any
other vein upon which much work has
been done and these discoveries are
therefore of unusual Importance. The
course of the vein to the top of the hill
indicates that it crosses Canyon creek
not far from the baseball grounds, just
above Wallace.
Messrs. F. F. Frisbee of Colorado
Springs, Colo, and E. E. Savage of
Butte, Mont, both practical mill men,
who have been in Baker City and vi
cinity for several weeks looking over
the mining field, have concluded to
permanently locate here and have Sc
cured control of the 10-stamp mill To-
Gated in East Baker, a well equipped
plant, and are making preparations to
operate it as costom mill, either pur-
chasing ore outright or milling at SO
per ton.
The experiment is worthy of the CO.
operation of every mine owner in this
vicinity, and it is to be hoped they will
show sufficient interest in the matter
to test the practicability of the enter
DriSe.

IS AGAINST v. A. CLARK.
Is DENIED A SEAT IN SENATE.
The Charges Were Sustained-The
Senate Committee Is Unanimous In
Its Findings Against Him-Evi-
denos Was Too strOnE-He Was
Surprised.

Washington, April 1.-The senate com.
mittee on privileges and elections yester-
day decided by unanimous vote to rec.
ommend the adoption of a resolution de-
claring that Hon. w. A. Clark of Mon
tana is not entitled to occupy his seat As
senator from that state. The decision was
reached after two hours sitting, at
which all of the members OF the commit.
tee were present, except one. The alb
scntee was Senator Gallery, and he wired
his vote in opposition to Clark. The bal
lot was not taken until all the members
present had expressed themselves upon
the question, some of them speaking at
some length and all expressing different
shades of opinion.
Sentaor Harris indicated most pro-
nounced leaning toward leniency for
Clark. He did not express any doubt that
there had been q lavish expenditure Of
money in Clark's behalf and while not
condoning this course, he spoke in terms
OF strong condemnation OF the tactics pur-
sued by some of Clark's opponents, re-
ferring especially to Congressman Camp
bell and ex-senator Whteside
He said that whatever Clark's offenses
were, they were but little worse than
the methods pursued by Campbell and
Whiteside and their efforts to expose the
senator, and he insisted that if the re-
port was to be antagonistic to Clark it
should at the same time relate in full
detail the course pursued by the two prin-
cipal witnesses against him
Senator Pettus practically agreed with
Senator Harris.
Two senators also expressed some doubt
as to the justification of the conclusion
drawn by the majority of the committee
that Clark's candidacy for the senate be-
gan in August, 1898, when he returned to
| Butte from New York The effect OF
| this conclusion was to charge up the en-
| tire $4,000, which Clark confessed to
having expended, to his campaign for the
! senate, while the contention which was
made in Clarll's behalf was that he did
not become candidate until after the
! state election, thus eliminating from the
campaign III his individual behalf the
amount spent in the general contest.

In the senate.

Mr.. Payne, chairman of the ways and
means committee, Tuesday reported back
the Puerto Rican tariff bill from that
committee with the recommendation that
the senate amendments be concurred in.
1t was ordered printed and placed on the
calendar.
The senate resolution was adopted

cifc railroad of its Indebtedness to the

then resumed the consideration of the
agricultural appropriation bill.

Wednesday, the final unofficial vote being
1863 to 1853, Delay in the official announce
ment was caused by recapitulation. The
bill will now go to the president for his
signature.

The fact that Clark and his representa-
tives had failed to make their reports to
the state authorities of Montana as re-
quired by the state law was also urged
against him in the discussion of the COM
nittee, as was the fact that he and his
representatives had destroyed all of their
vouchers showing where the money had
been used and to whom paid. When at
tention was called to the fact that this
course was usual with campaign mana
gers, the statement was met with the con-
tention that while this plan might be more
commonly adopted than it should be, still
there could be no reasonable excuse for
it after the Whiteside exposure. 1t was
then known there would be a contest and
the argument was made that every scrap
of paper bearing upon the election should
have been preserved after this develop
ment in the case
Senators Chandler and Turley were di-
rected to prepare the report. 1t is ex-
pected to be presented at an early day.

Clark Was Surprised.

Senator Clark was at the capitol whom
the announcement of the action OF the
committee, was made known. He was
surprised at the result, but refused to
make a statement until after consulta-
ton with his friends and attorneys. The
senator bore himself with his usual COM
posure. His face appeared somewhat
flushed, but his voice was calm and his
manner collected and he discussed other
business affairs as if nothing had trans
pred.
He was asked if there was any truth in
the report that he had decided to resign
and he replied as he did to all other
questions bearing upon the case:
IL can not at present answer any ques-
tons bearing on the report of the com
mittee on elections"
Senator Faulkner counsel for Clark,
was summoned to the capitol Immediate
ly after the verdict of the committee was
announced and had a long consultation
with his client over the situation.
