The Monroe doctrine Is founded purely
and simply on the determination on thH
part of the government of the Unitgd
States that no foreign country should in
terfere in the western hemisphere. Mr..
Bryan would do what? Spread it all over
the world and we would stand behind and
defend it. What do you call that if it
isn't Imperialism? AS a result of that
procedure we would find ourselves in
voved in all kinds of foreign wars. "a
voice-That is right.) That is true-and
yet Mr.. Bryan is for peace. He was for
peace when he resigned from the army
and he has been for peace ever since. 1

Bryan Switches Issues.
But Mr.. Bryan has already been driven
from his position on imperialism. He
knows now what many of us knew in the
beginning-that it was only one rooster
that he was going to put in the pit, and
he would fight 1t as long as he could
Now he has got his last gamecock, Trust,

and opportunity l would like to speak to
every laboring man in the United States
upon that question; because in warning
the laboring people of this country against
this huge monster, the trusts, in the same
breath he says that the Dingley bill is
the incubator of trusts.
Now, we are getting to know where we
stand with the laboring people when we
come to the tariff, and we won't allow
him to evade the issue that he has made
on the bald proposition that the protect
i've tariff principle goes hand i'll hand with
trusts. We keep the protective tariff
principle there and we will furnish our
own definition for trusts. l say we are
at home ON that proposition because we

there isn't laboring man in the city of
Chicago, or in the State of Illinois, or in
the United States, who knows anything
about public affairs, who knows anything
about the career of President Mckinley,
that does not know from actual proof the
fact that during his whole public life he
is the only man that the workingmen of
this country always felt at liberty to call
upon to support their interests, and he
never failed them. And he is just as
much their friend to-day as he was fifteen
years ago.

The Blue Ridge is rich in gold, and
the exhibit contained one of the rich
est specimens of gold ever seen in Los
Angeles, taken from mine in this
range. The ores are lime carbonates,
and so free that the high values can be
recovered by plate amalgamation. By
cyanide treatment As high As % per

Some of these veins are from forty to
seventy feet in width. The mountains
are rocky and sterile, no wood, and but
slight vegetation growing upon them.
Wallapai mountain, to the east and
south of Kingman, is well-wooded

General Mining News

Seth Leaveuwortb, general manager
of the Corona mining company of
Sonora few days ago passed through
the custom house at Nac0 three bars
of gold bullion valued at l2,000s from
their property located on the east side
of the Ajo range and about fifty miles
south of the Arizona line, says the
Tucson Citizen.
There will soon be in operation at the
Golden Cross mines ON the Colorado
river the largest cyanide plant Ia the
world. 1t will have a capacity of 300
tons a day, and there is on the dump
100000 tons, while the output of the
mine averages over 300 tons daily. At
that rate, this one cyanide plant, big
as it is, will never catch up.
w. s. Stratton, of Colorado, who has
recovered from his illness, expects to
leave for London next week to close
up the sale of the Independence mine
and receive the balance due him on
account of it, and which is stated TO
be somewhere in the neighborhood of
5,000,000s. He will be accompanied by
his private secretary, w. G. Ramsey.
The output of the Independence for
February was about 240000s. Since
its purchase by the English owners it
has paid nearly 1,500,OOOs in dividends.

The Mineral exhibit of Mohave coun-
ty, Ariz., at the Los Angeles Exposi-
ton was the most attractive of all the
mineral displays made. From the
opening to the closing day great crowds
thronged the booth, both afternoons
and evenings, view of which is here
presented.
The exhibit was made up of ores
from many of the best mines of that
rich mineral section. The cabinets
we're filled with native ores of gold,
silver and copper. Every form of sill
yer ore was exhibited, some of the
specimens showing massive forms of
ruby, sulphide, native, sntimony and
chloride Of silver. One mass of native
silver from the Buckeye mine, at Min.
eral Park, weighed seventy. five pounds.
There was one small lump Of ore from
the Gold Bug mine weighing twenty
ounces, with 250s worth of gold in it,.
Many other specimens of the exhibit
showed great values in gold, silver,
copper and lead.
The exhibit was neatly arranged in
cabinets and shelves, situated in the
northwest corner of the pavilion and
was in charge of g. W. Beecher and
Anson II. Smith of Kingman f. T.
10y, the well-known mining operator
Of Chloride, gave valuable assistance
in explaining to visitors the resources
Of the county, the nature of ores and
their occurrence.
The mines of Mohave county repre-
sented Ia the exhibit are the following:

exhibition.
The nugget of lead sulphide from the
tennessee mine, weighing S76 pounds,
caught the visitors eye on entering the
booth, after which the gold quartz and
native silver was the attractions.
Views of mountain scenes in and
around Chloride we're arranged around
the booth, and a plat Of the Chloride
mines was exposed on the wall. The
booth was arranged tastefully and
neatly, to best show off the exhibit.

the richest found in the treasure ter
ritory and the mineral zones cover the
greater part of the county. The county
is cut in two in the north and bor-
dered on the west by the great Color
ado river Along this great waterway
are vast deposits of gold bearing dilu-
the country from north to south and
all are scanned and ribbed with veins of
gold, silver, lead and copper ores. In
the northern part of the county the
ranges break off into high sandstone
plateaus through which ran great
dykes of cretaceous limestone. In this
sandstone occur vast deposits Of cop.
per OF exceeding richness. From these
depo sits ores averaging eighty per cent
copper in 100 ton lots are shipped to
the -melter at Salt Lake City. In that
region are also deposits of salt and
gypsum of very pure quality. South
of the river the ranges are broken and
serrated for fifty o. sixty miles, and
then rise up 10 high, towering peaks.
In these mountain claims the ore bear
ing zone is almost unbroken for fully
one hundred aud fifty miles, and show
ing uniform width of several miles
across the three separate ranges--Blue
Ridge, Cerba. and Wailapai
At White Hills the ore bodies lie in a
formation greatly differing from that
Of other parts of the county, being
metamorphic porphyry covered by a
Gaping of cretaceous lime. The ore
veins are wavy aud broken. but in the
deeper workings show well-defined
walls. The greatest ore body yet found
is that in the Rip Van Wrinkle, in a
crosscut from the 300-foot level Of the
Occident, the ore having value of over
10Ds and the vein a width of twelve
feet. The ore Is milled in 40-stamp
mill on the mine.
South of White Hills is the big lead
camp of Chloride. This camp is one
of the most accessible in Arizona, and
in consequence is receiving consider
able attention from mining investors.
So far there are six organized com
panies at work on the mines and with
few exceptions they are making daily
ore shipments to the smelters. The
Tennessee, with its 125-ton plant is
the biggest shipper, although within a
few months there will be other rivaling
it ia daily output. Hoists have been
installed on many of the mines and
big pumping plants are at work in sew
eral places. The greatest ore body in
the district is that exposed in the Min
nesota-Connor mines of John Barry,
southeast of the town. This vein
shows an ore body twenty five feet in
width, every inch of which is pay.
Many other veins are equally as rich
but their ore zones are circumscribed.
The Juno shows the richest lead bear
ing ores of the camp, and the Lucy
Boy the richest in gold and silver. In
this Lucky Boy, two separate veins,
the combined width of which is nine
feet, have been cut. The ores have
an average shipping value of over zoos
per ton without asserting. The num-
ber of rich ore veins within the Chlor-
ide field cannot be enumerated 10

OPPONENTS OF EXERCISE.
Long Life to the Lack OF
EIertiOn.

A story is going the rounds, says the
st. Louis Globe-Hemocrat that when
William NJ. Eyarts was asked the other
day to what he assribed his long life
and excellent health, he replied: II
don't know, unless it is because don
take any exercise" This has been
taken as one of Mr.. Eyarts' jokes.
Those who know the venerable gentle
man best recognize the answer as alb
solutely true. Mr.. Evarts takes no ex-
ercise. He has carefully avoided exer-
else for many years. When he went
from his home to his Office he would
not walk a block; he would take car
rage, no matter how short the dis
lance.
Mr. Evarts isn't the only public man
who has a theory that physical exer-
else, added to mental effort, is waste
of tissue, which tends toward debility
and shortening of life. Mr.. Joseph
Chamberlain is a conspicuous example.
He spares himself all physical effort, so
far as he can. He will not walk up a
single flight of stairs if he can help it,
Senator Hanna is, perhaps, the most
notable exponent of this practice in
Washington. Vigorous as he is in speech
and in mental effort, the senator is sell
dom seen save in an attitude which
suggests physical repose. The presi-
dent walks daily. He feels badly with
out his constitutional. He strides
with the movement of man to whom
the exercise is keen enjoyment. Usual
ly he is accompanied by some one who
may be at the white house when he
starts. Nobody can remember to have
seen Senator Hanna accompanying
the president on a walk in the three
years at WaSb Ngton.

Bluering, the fairest of all Indian
maidens, attracted the artistic eye of
Mr.. Loeb, who asked to be allowed to
make a mask of her face. Mr.. Roddy
led the two girls to Mr.. Loebs studio

in the plaster and refused to go on.

supervention OF new conditions to
which it can have no application.
The department is free from political
dictation and influence, and the di.

While some of these advantages are

Outside of the army in time of war,
the federal census is the biggest thing
the government has to handle. 1t is
also the most difficult of management.
An army fights when it meets the en-
envy or when it gets ready; but the cen
.sus must be taken within certain mar
row limits of tome, and the results tab
ulated and published before certain
date fixed by law, no matter what the
obstacles or the impossibilities OF prep

Besides, an army, before 1t is fought,

that business in the government mill

makes no attempt to educate it's statis-
ticians. 1t has no schools of statistics,
economies or public service, so the
bulk Of the census work must be done
by raw recruits.
The machine in process Of construc-
tion for taking, editing, tabulating
and publishing the twelfth census UNI

enormous proportions. In general
terms it may be described as consisting
