 Tn an interview, President Thompson said: '"To be candid, the Republic Iron and Steel Company needs big steei pians In this community. There Is no use TOT us to manufacture and sell foundry iron when we could manufacture .hls in.s s steel at a greater profit. If others car purchase our foundry iron and make Il into steel at a profit, certainly we can However, this is not matter that car be settled in one day.

 The season of the small boat and the prospector is now at hand. 1t is conceded by all that we need more men who understand mining and tue handling of placer opera tions.

Every miner who works one winter here increases our output and incidentally en- riches himself.
 From reports now coming in on the first cleanups on the different creeks, the final addition should run high. It has been variously estimated at from $2oo, ,ooo to $5oo,~ GOO. The facts as to the exact fg- ures are difficult to obtain, each man being very secretive as to what he does get. If the figures do not run as high as $500, ,ooo, it will be due to to the scarcity of dumps and the men to take them out. All agree that our district contains

Britain and America should with
draw from the negative position in
the matter which they have hitherto
occupied in the counsels of the
world. They should announce
themselves ready to take all wise

They need not endorse every meth

Particularly at Antietam and Kern

admiration and renown. And all
through life his was the same gal

His private life was stainless no

He was devoted to his public duty

He was, I say, a good and true
