FLoRENCE'S FIFTH PAPER.

Elk Parte, the fifth paper to make
its advent in Florence, appeared
before the public this morning
for the first time. geographically
the paper is naturally beyond
criticism for it is product of The
TRIBUNE printery.
AS to the matter contained in
the columns of Ex Parte, there
will probably be a diversity of
opinions among its readers While
it is ostensibly democratic paper,
not all democrats will accept all
its arguments On the other hand
there are perhaps many ideas adj
vanced which are not in keeping
with the doctrines of Mr.. Bryan
One thing is certain, whatever
is the product of Frank P. War
ner's pen is very readable matter,
whether one agrees with the senti-
ments expressed or not; and Elk
Parte will be one of the strongest
papers, editorially, in the state
And while it would be far from
us to endorse the principles ad-
vocated by Elk Parte, we heartily
congratulate Messrs. Warner and
Moore on their very creditable
first number of the paper The
TRIBUNE bespeaks for Elk Parte a
very cordial reception by the dem
ocracy of Fremont county.

WHAT OF ANARCHY.

"Anarchistsn was the word which
spontaneously arose to every lip
yesterday afternoon when the
news flashed across the wires
that a foul attempt had been made
upon the life of President McKin-
ley. The news came like thun-
derclap and yet people were not
entirely surprised They were
appalled, at the Nervousness of the
crime, but they were not entirely
unprepared to hear of it.
When anarchy is allowed to
breed and thrive and increase
throughout the borders of the land
the bullet and the dagger are not
far from the vitals of men in
high places, If assassins are COM
missioned to cross seas to take the
life of a ruler why should they
spare the chief executive of the
nation within whose borders their
diabohcal plots are born?
Isn't it time that an effort is
being made to stamp out anarchy
root and branch? What but blood
and butchery could be expected
after the developments in the
Bresci case. Better that the whole
of Paterson or even the state of
New Jersey be swept off the face
of the earth than that anarchy be
allowed to flourish in this country

CUSTER COUNTY MINING.
Silver and Gold Camps Launch
Forth in New Era.


L. Blaney, who has Just returned
from the Silver Cliff district, states
that that district is on a veritable
boom and that lot of capital is
finding its way in there. Mr..
Blaney while in the district bonded
and leased the A p. P mine for
two years for $4,000. This prop
erty is located one half mile south
west of the Bassick. The shaft is
now down sixty feet, and he has
two men at work sinking another
shaft on the same vein. A force
of men will shortly be put to work
at a new place on the side exten-
sion of the twenty-siX lodes which
he located. The rock has values
in copper, lead, silver and some
lead. The Twenty Six mine, one of
Mr.. Blaney's properties, is at Ro-
sita, and it is his intention to drive
a tunnel into an ore chimney.
1t is claimed that Il T. Jeffrey
of the Rio Grande has purchased
an interest in the Bassick mine
and the report is current that the
Rio Grande will build an extern
sion from Westclitfe to Querida
via Rosita The distance from
Westclitfe to Rosita is seven miles,
and from Westclitfe to Querida is
one and half miles. The exten-
sion will take in all the intermedi-
ate points. The Bassick and the
Hector lodes are at Querida.
A new shaft is being sunk on
the Bassick which is now at
depth of 500 feet, and a contract
has just been awarded to sink it
1000 feet more, The old work
ings have been apandoned and the
new shaft will enter an immensely
rich body of ore which has never
been touched.
Custer county is having a revi-
val of the mining industry after
rest of fifteen years, 1t has several
good mines within its limits, in
cluding the Bassick, 1900 feet
deep in the old workings, an ore
chimney nearly round and showing
a continuous ore body from top to
bottom, varying in diameter from
fifteen to one hundred feet, coated
with gold and silver ores, which
are largel y concentrating ore. 1t
has produced over S2,00O,000 in
bullion since it was discovered in
1875 1t was worked for years to
nearly its present depth, then got
into litigation and remained so for
long time.
Boulders were found In many
other places in this district but
none that carry values in the
boulder coatings as does the Bas-
sick mine,
In the immediate vicinity of the
Bassick mine are several good
mines that are now being started
up again since the recent opening
of the Texas Creek branch which
reduces the rate of transportation
from $40 to SO per ton, It's this
reduction which makes it possible
to mine and ship the lower grades
of ore and has given the camp
such sudden revival.

The Joe Newman Company.

Joe Newman and company of
lady artists appeared at the opera
house last night and were greeted
by we'll filed house. Mr.. New
man visits Florence every year
and each succeeding program
seems to be more varied. Last
nights performance was the eli
max over any visit of the past
three years, The company was
of the highest class in every re-
spect and each number was ap-
plauded and was well responded
to. The ladies are all artists in
their chosen lines.
Mr., Newman was the life of the
entertainment and literally re-
sponded to the encores, and each
successive nun Der WAS a little bet
ter than the previous one. The
audience thoroughly enjoyed the
mum bers rendered and the musical
and literary renditions could
hardly be surpassed.
