at this point assure the perman-
ent establishment of a town of
considerable size.
The company, in its various
mining and building operations,
is at the present employing about
400 men, and it is likely that
their permanent operations will
require fully as large a force and
probably more.
The immense volumes of ore
shown up at their mines is daily
being increased, and the develop
ment of the Copper Basin mines,
which they are now operating
under bond, is showing up in
such manner as to indicate that
the Short Line people will be
justified in extending their line
to that point by next spring.
YIN SALMON III VER.
AT Clayton, over on Salmon
river, the 50-ton furnace of the
Clayton smelling company was
in successful operation for the
past two months and turned out
an average of 8 tons of high
grade silveI-lead bullion every
"a hours, giving employment to
over so men,.
The Lucky Boy company at
Custer is still dropping the new
shaft, and other improvements
at the mine, with a force of forty
men. The Hartford Gold Min
ing company at Estes mountain
miles north of Custer, is just
about ready to turn on steam at
its new 10-stamp mill. It's new
hoist at the mine is working like
a charm and hosting a remark
ably fine quality of ore. The
operation of this property gives
employment to about 80 men, and
there are several other small
properties in the same vicinity
showing up we'll. With about 10
miles of open development and
ore bodies blocked out that ex-
pose pay values amounting to
several millions of dollars, the
old Ramshorn mine at Bayhorse
is being kept up and put in shape
for active production by a force
of 20 men, in anticipation of the
further extension of the Salmon
river line.
The Skylark mine, adjoining
the Ramshorn, has given en-
ployment to a large force of men
all summer and has sent out
about 700 tons of rich ore to the
company's smelter at Clayton.
This old mine has a bullion rec
ord of 81, 700, 900. 1t has been
operated continuously for over
20 years, and the exhibition of
mineral and evidences of perfect
assuring in its lower levels
strongly indicate that another
20 years operation will be re-
quired to exhaust it's treasurers.
In the lead belt at Bayhorse,
the past summer has seen some
very successful leasing opera
tions and about so carloads of
rich ore shipped to market.
the most successful pro-
ducers of this belt we're the
Democrat, Forest Rose and
Pacific mines, and the value of
the ores sent out by them was
good for so per cent lead and rs
ounces silver, together with
copper and gold.
A small force of men has been
put on development work at the
old River View mine, which has
been a large producer in the
past, and there is a good deal of
other development work being
projected for this winter. The
advance of the new railway
points a better market for their
output, confidence is being es-
tablished in future values, and
the old camp is just commenc-
ing to wake up to a new lease of
life.

Our Growth as n Nntion.

One II the amusing features Of the
current discussion Of the political and
Industrial situation is the graLdilOqLclt
manner in which Republican orators
generally roll or the huge figures rep
resenuug our national growth. ascIiD-
ing il all 10 The policy OF their party.
and right upon the heels Of il urge the
necessity of modifying that policy in
order To secure markets for our surplus
products. This was quite observable in
Senator Foraker's Delaware speech and
IL appears even more strikiEEly in one
recently delivered by Governor Shaw,
OF Iowa According TO these gentlemen
none Of GUT national growth has been
due To- our magnificent domain, 10 nat
ural causes. or to the native industry
and intelligence. 1t is all owing to the
policy Of the Republican party
To the mind Of a man who actually
thinks about public questions, the OBJ
yi0us defect iu this line Of reasoning is
found in the circumstance that tie
United states made some rather sub
stauual progress before the Republican
party came into power. and even before
that organization was born. AT the
close Of the American Revolution the
country contained less than three mil
lions Of people. and II was one OF the
poorest Of nations. In 1860 il contained
thirty-one millions Of people, the assess
ed valuation Of the country was about
sixteen billions Of dollars. and it was iu
every natural element Of wealth and
strength a frst-class Power And all
Of this. strange 10 relate. without the
slightest help from the Republican par
y as a political organization.
True. the country has increased still
more since, but that was bound 30 be
the case regardless Of party policies un-
less, Of course, they were Of a nature
to be utterly destructive. With the
close Of the civil war the country was
In a position 20 make its most prodi-
giOus growth. This came mainly with
the development Of our railway system.
and the wonderful progress Of inven-
ton The former opened up for settle
ment great and fertile areas Of new ter
ritOry, the latter enabled the people 10
utilize 10 the fullest degree the illimit-
able stores Of natural wealth within our
borders.
We may grant that the country has ad-
vancld with giant strides since 1860.

Tie city OF Philadelphia has not only
public baths but q public laundry,
which is said 10 be very successful and
is the only establishment Of the kind i'm
this country. There are tubs hot and
cold water, soap. wriugers, steam dry
iug-rooms. and irons all 20 be- had for
the sum o. five cents an hour. Many
women take their family washing 10
this laundry. and an unexpected Gevel-
OpmenJ has occurred in The patronage
Of men. It has become necessary 10
set apart Friday and Saturday for the
use Of the latter. Men who have but
one suit Of Undertaking come To- the
laundry, wash and dry this suit i'm an
hours time. and go forth clean and
selC-respecting- They have room set
apart for them in The mems bathing de-
partment
The baths were suggested in 1895 by
Miss Sarah d. Lowrie, now Secretary
OF the Public Baths Association. and
the structure was erected soon after.
There are facilities for bathing for nine
hundred men and six hundred women.
on a time basis Of twenty minutes for
each person. Five cents is paid for the
use Of dressing-room, shower bath with
hot and cold water, towels and soap.
1t is hoped that other lighthouses and
Iaundries may in time be established
in other parts Of the city. il is said
that the habit Of cleanliness in the
ncighborho0d has grown steadily since
the opening Of the baths.
There would be no eXaggeratiOn in
stating that access TO an unlimited sup
ply Of hot water would be. 10 most u
the self-respecting poor, positive lux
ury. How great a comfort this t. can
not be realized by those who have bath
rooms always at hand and live in
well-ventilated. clean and comfortable
houses. There are, even in the dirtiest
and poorest teuements some tenants
who keep themselves clean and neat
but they frequently do II by an exer-
else Of ingenuity, forethought and en-
ergy which most people do not possess.
