had it's ups and downs, abuse,
mismanagements ETC., as most
mines experience, more or less,
but it with many others, not yet

A MILLION AND A-HALF
OF MONEY FOR B0NITO.
Mr.. Fuller of Chicago Talks to
the Herald rlan at El PasO.
EXTENSIVE WORK BEGINNING
A Great Dam VIII be Built Across the
Bonito of the Strongest Concrete
Masonry=-Other improvements.
Mr.. Fuller says:

Mr.. Fuller says:
''Inside of three months, the
Eagle Creek Mining company
will begin work on their claims
which means an expenditure of
about seven hundred thousand
dollars before it is completed.
The first move will be to con-
stuct dam across the Rio Bonito
that is to be one hundred feet
high and two hundred and fifty
feet wide.
"A1l our claims are low grade
propositions, and will be worked
by the cyanide process.
''As soon as the dam is COM
p1eted we will begin to bring in
machinery and sink shafts. Every
one of the claims are promising
and it is likely that when the
company has everything in work
ing order fully five hundred tons
of ore will be handled each day.
To make it a paying venture we
must put through the process at
least that amount every "a hours.
"Some of the claims are already
producers. For three of them we
paid the former owners S125, 900
each. At a low estimate we have
already expended about million
dollars.
'It is costing us over forty
thousand dollars a year to do as
sessment on this group of claims
and the sooner we get to taking
money out of them the better the
company will like it. We have
figured that with the cyanide
process in full operation we can
clear about fifty per cent on the
ore taken out.

In the Last of the JOS Party of
speCtors LunChing in Bax-
ter GuiCh Discovered
THE SOUTH HOnESTAkE TINE.
The Prospector Whose Pick First Dis
covered the Gold Sold His Interest
For $40 Left the Country and Was
Never Afterwards Heard From.

The following early history of
the South Homestake is taken
from a file of the EAGLE dated
Nov. q, 1891:
I'm the year 1879, one George
Wilson, a ''pard," in mining par
lance, of old Jack Winters, with
Baxter and about a dozen other
miners, were prospecting and
placer mining in the deep gulch-
es near what is now the Old Abe
mill site in Baxter gulCh, and
near the site at the foot of what
is now Baxter mountain. While
the rest were eating their dinners,
Wilson climbed one of the foot
hills and sat down on a large
blowout boulder. The boulder
in someway attracted his close
inspection, resulting in his finding
fine native gold sticking in and
to it.
He reported his find to his
partners, Jack Winters and the
other miners, to one of whom he
sold his half interest for about
$40. A six shooter and an old
pony were taken as part payment
Of $40. The happy prospector
then left the camp and country,
since when he has never been
heard from. John E. Wilson, the
purchaser, then divided the claim
with Winters, himself taking the
south end of it, and Immediately
adding the ground south, $50 feet
this making his claim, the pres
ent South HOn1eStake, full claim
600X1, 500 feet
Soon afterward Wilson organ
ised stock company and work
began on the mine, which has
continued intermittently up to the
past year. New hoist and other
machinery will have to be put in
before work is resumed.
The mine was patented and
worked as before stated, and the
life of the camp at times, depend
ed on its expenditures, very large
ly.
July 1st 81, a fire broke out
near the top Of the main shaft
and great damage was done to
the property.
The company has fine twenty

We read with great deal of inter-
est the editorial comments upon the
result of the Republican State conven-
tion from the pens of those whose
papers, like the Republican, opposed
the denomination of Governor La
Toilette. Their sage counsels to abide
by the decision Of the legally consti-
tuted convention does not impress us
as forcibly as perhaps they ought, as
the genuine sentiments of the writer's.
Like the man who was asked if his
wsse wrs reeoncilsd to die, tersely an
swe-ed, - She had to be-" their siea
for unity of argument and action inn
plies a condition in which there is no
choice. If La Toilette was unfit in
their opinions to be governor before the
convention he has not improved any
since. We believe open confession is
good for the soul. We did not be-
lieve Governor La Toilette is a fit man
for governor, and his nomination
by the convention is in the nature of
an appeal in his case to the people,
''fair-minded democrats" and repub-
licans as well.
While giving our colleagues full
credit for their sincerity, we can but
imagine that the smile that adorned
their intellectual features when they
penned these sentiments must have
been very much like that of sly, bad
man with long wicked looking knife
up his sleeve.

THERE rs an honest difference of
opinion among our local democrats as
to whom their party should nominate
for governor. H one judges by the
talk on the street, Mayor Rose is the
decided favorite of many; but the older
and more conservative element in the
quiet and confidence of their private
Offices and homes seems to prefer Burr
Jones, of Madison. That the demo-
cratic state convention may put in
nomination the best and the very
strongest man in their party, is the
sincere wish of many republicans
and good ones, too,-all over the
the state; not kickers, but thinking
men who place the welfare of the state
above the domination Of personal
faction.

A correspondent in the Daily Times,

A correspondent in the Daily Times,
among other names, suggests that OF
General Solliday as that of a suitable
candidate for nominatian for governor
before the next Democratic State con-
vention. There is more real good
judgment in that recommend than
may appear to casual reader. As a
member Of the state senate no men,
Der of that body stood higher ir the
esteem and confidence of his col
leagues than General Solliday, and the
reason for it was plain: he did his
whole duty and was ever ready to give
his reasons for every public act. This
senate district was never better repre-
sented. AS quartermaster general of
the Wisconsin National Guard, he
found the affairs of the Office in con-
fusion. He straighted out matters,
and made the first perfect detailed re-
port ever made in this state. His ex-
perience in responsible positions dur
ing the Civil and Spanish wars fitted
him most adm irably for the duties of
quartermaster general. In the draft
ing of bills introduced and passed, re-
organizing and improving the Wiscon-
sin National Guard, his sound iudg-
ment and perfect knowledge of mil
itary matters made him an invaluable
counselor. True. General Solliday
was removed by Gov. La Toilette, and
a son-in-law of Isaac Stephenson, ci-
william, appointed in his stead, but the
reprehensible act of the governor was
to belittle 1t. Gov. Stone rather than
to imply any lack of confidence in Gen
eral Solliday. If Solliday was COVER
nor the state would have an honest,
able and business-like administration.
He might not be able to lecture on
Hamlet and try to make a political
deal through Kress all on one and the
same evening, but he would be a
credit to the state as he is now to our
city.

aln Natural Love for Steamboat paA
Surpasses His Regard for
Mule.


"The negro's relation to the steam
boat is peculiar" said an old steam
boat man. ~und my experience Of IS
gears 81 more on the Mississippi has
convinced me that the negro has a
much deeper love for the steamboat
than he has for anything else on
earth. except something that viii sat
isfy his physical craving. The ne
.sro'S devotion TO the steamboat is
really pathetic. There Is q popular
but erroneous belief that there is q
strong affinity existing between the
negro and the mule The negro likes
the mule. of course, and DE can gem
orally get more out of she mule than
the white man. and I sometimes be-
lieve the mule looks upon the white
man as being responsible for his place
in nature. and the many unhappy
burdens he IS forced TO bear But,
getting back to the negro and the
steamboat, the black man seems to
nave almost deified the boat.
go down on the levee. or 60 10
any steamboat landing along the riv-
ers Of the south, and watch the negro
when the boat arrives From the
very time the whistle sounds until
the bell clangs 10 pull in the lines, he
is an abject but happy worshiper of
the boat. The negro who has ahso.
lutely nothing TO do with the boat.
who has not even the remotest con-
nection with the vessel, win delight
in doing things TO help the boat along,
and to see that she maintains her rep
utation for feetness and reliability
on the river. They do these things
without any hope of reward. They
do IL just for the satisfaction Of doing
it, They do il out Of pure love for
the boat. If the boat happens to be
a good speeder she becomes the idol
of the negroes along the river, and
in the territory where she runs, and
really the rousters take more pride
in the fieetness Of the boat than the
owners, and would probably fight
quicker If any man should he indis-
Greet enough to cast some slight as
persion upon the boats good name.
reports the New Oxleans Times-Dem-
ocrat.
Il have seen negroes at the way
landings who actually took great
pleasure in handling the ropes used
IN holding the boat to the landing,
and they would work like Troians
when it came to hauling the line out,
or hauling il in, as we say on the
river. And there is another curious
fact about the negro and the steam
boat The negro who works on a
steamboat believes he IS better So
cially than his less fortunate broth-
ers who are forced to toll along other /
lines There is a sort of black steam
boat aristocracy, with the black man
in the highest position in the service /
as q leader of the clan. Man, in his
ingenuity, may go on devising steam
engines that thunder across the land, +
and huge and wonderful electric mo- .
tors, and automobiles. and bicycles. +
and all that sort of thing. but the
steamboat that foats up and down
the river is the thing for the black
man."
