Florence Tribune: Jesse Brewn, superintendent of the Newberry Min ing company, returned Monday from Boston, where he was called to consult with the officers of his com pany. MT. Brown was furnished ample means for the systematic de velopment of the property, and since his return has placed number of miners at work. There are now more than thirty men in the camp. There have been two important strikes of rich copper ore made within the past week, and the property promises to develop into something big.
 Wickenburg News Herald: Geo. R.. Sanders spent couple of days at Vulture this week. He and Geo. B.. Upton are doing some work on their ten claims adjoining the Vulture ground. The main shaft is now down about 35 feet and at 100 feet cross cut will be made which promises good results as this is the most promising gold property in that vicinity outside of the Vulture workings. If the size of the ledge and surface values hold out it will be opened up on large scale, after the manner which charac- terizes all the undertakings of the two gentlemen.
 Mohave Miner: Oliver Augdahl, the well known mining man of Planet arrived in Kingman Thursday last from Prescott, accompanied by Oscar H. Knox and E. H. Webb, two min. ing men. Mir. Augdahl departed for the south yesterday and Messrs Webb and Knox will follow within few days. These gentlemen have entered into dn agreement with MT. Augdahl for the purchase of his Planet copper mines and already have two hoisting plants on the way, which will be in. stalled on the property. The Planet mines are among the big copper prop critics of the Bill Williams Fork country.

Superintendent

Mohave Miner: Superintendent Boyle will have the mill of the Leo- nore Mining & Milling company, at Hardyville, in running order sometime next week As soon as the mill Is completed it is the intention of the company to remodel the mine hoist and put force of men to work In the Rattan, one of the properties owned by the company. The Rattan is one of the best mines in the San Francisco mining district.
 Mohave Miner: Levy Brothers. the we'll known merchants and stockmen of Signal, have just completed their Kinkead mill at the Greenwood mine and have already turned out many tons of concentrates, besides securing big values in free gold on the plates. The mill is fitted up with concen- trators and plates and practically all the values in the ores are thus saved. The mine is one of the first locations made in the Big Sandy country, but owing to it's isolation it has been inn possible to work it profitablv until the present tine. The present owners intend to put force of men to work taking out ore after the first of the month and will be able to keep the mill pounding away on richer material than that now being run through. Gabe Levy, of the firm, is in King man arranging for the sale of concen- trates.
 Journal Miner: A report from Wickenburg says that one of the big gest strikes eyer made in Arizona was made few days since at the Sanuaco mine, two miles northeast of town, owned by Messrs. Nickless. Miller and Bremen. The ledge, which is over twenty feet wide, was accident. ally discovered between the two shafts on the mine. aod at three feet from the surface shows large chunks Of pure native silver. One lump, about 10 inches square contained so much sil yer that no man in the camp could lift it. Great excitement prevails and many are going out to locate grounds in the vicinity.

believes, OF course, it will be shown
UP. and the account against the state
will be less the amount he received.
However, the meeting Of these issues
win cause annoyances and troubles.

In line? In the meantime other
candidates will be active, because
"there are Others" Again. those peo-
pie now realize that they voted against
their own interests in voting down

II Dubois Is not elected, though Il

OF the people Of Idaho do not realize
that this state is one of the most fav-
ored sections in the country for rails
ing fruit i'm point OF climate and soil.
Apples. peaches, pears, grapes, as well
as "a number of other varieties. are ex-
celled nowhere IN the United states
for size, color, richness OF hayor ana
hardness, by those which are pro-
duced in Idaho. and especially that
section Familiarity known all over
the coast AS the Snake River country.
Ii may be surprising to many OF our
readers. but nevertheless IL Is a fact,
when we say that Idaho and Oregon
apples sell on the trains in the east for
three times as much as those produced
elsew here. Moreover they bring the
highest price in the market, and no
tronbi. 10 market them.
Idaho as fruit producing state has
certainly made wonderful progress
during the last seven Or eight years,
and the time is no great distance in
the future when the fruit Industry
will be one Of the greatest and most
lucrative of any Of the varied indus
tries which are being rapidly deyel-
oped, and which will eventually make
the state Of Idaho one Of the grandest
and richest in the union.

The Philadelphia Times again
tors for life. The Salt Lake Tribune
aniagnnlZes the suggestion and satS
that while ex-presidents might come
Into the White house, possessed OF
much learning and experience In pub
liz affairs. they would soon become an
tiquated and f0ssIlized and live In the
past rather than In the present. Re-
ferring to the two ex-prcsidents who
are still alive, ii charactcrizes Harri-
son AS man who views everything
from the standpoint Of lawyer
rather than OF a statesman. "As fer
Cleveland" remarks the Tribune,
Though he was president for eight
years, all he knows about more than
half his country is still from hearsay,
and he has not changed an idea in 20
years. lie Is not trying to keep up
with the country, and instead OF re-
hsctIng how the lightning must have
zigzagged TO have ever struck him for
president, he IL at this moment see
reilly replning that the laws were not
SO adjusted that he could have held
thu presidency for life The Denver
News says that ex-presidents as life
members in the senate would simply
become nuisances, and in their do
tagc dim perhaps the records they
may have made rs executives.
