week, looking after the interests Of

complete the %company's title to the
mines IL has bought in the Virginia
district within a short time, and as
soon as that is done the company will
commence work. The title to the At
wood mine, a patented property, was
mixed up, as it had been owned by
several different companies, who had
practically gone to pieces without
taking the necessary legal precautions
to bust up according to law. The
matter of the title had to be taken in
to court for fnal adjustment, but the
lawyers now say 1t is all clear.
G.. A. Snider, who has done a great

and lies somewhere between Malone
and the ella river, but its exact loca-
ton Snider refuses as yet to reveal.
He wants to do some locating before
be tells about it. There is said to be
a ledge, that can be traced for more
than a mile, that 10 places widens to
an hundred feet, and is all an iron
stained quartz. 1t is the iron stained
quartz that carries the gold 10 this
section Of the country. Snider washed
out some sand he found in a gulch
below the ledge, and PANIED out
many colors, and a nugget bigger than
a pea. A piece Of the quartz ledge
was Rssayed at the reduction works
the first Of the week, and was found
to carry an ounce and a quarter Of
gold to the ton.

w. r. Hearst, of the San Francisco
Examiner and New York Journal
passed through town Saturday In his
private car, en- route to see how his
business affairs in San Francisco we're
progressing. Mr.. Hearst was recently
elected to congress from one Of the
down town districts 10 New York
city, by a majority Of over fifteen
thousand. In New York every candi-
date for office has to make a sworn
statement of his expenses and the
amount of money be spent during the
campaign. Mr.. Hearst swore that his
expenses we're a little over thirteen
thousand dollars, more than the
salary of his office during the two
years he will serve. The editorial
conscience of the Examiner still pro.
tests against a man, especially a re-
publican, buying his way into office,
but luckily that conscience is a Pc
culiar affair, and only works in pro-
testing against the acts committed
by men not connected with the Ex-
aminer, and never has a twinge on &C
count Of the acts of the owner of the
paper.

Reads Like a Fairy Tale.

A rumor was about this morning to
the effect that 1870 pounds of ore were
quietly brought into town last evening
from the mountains west of this city
and that the $50 pounds would net
about $4,000 in gold. The story is that
the ore is found on ground owned by
a timber company which will not make
reasonable concessions to the discov-
erer, who in return refuses to disclose
it's location. The company for the last
few years has employed men to find
his treasure, but it is unable to do so
Notwithstanding persistent report that
the ~discoverer brings N a sackful occa-
sionally. There is said to be quite a
deposit of the ore and that it averages
SIS, 900 per ton in an assay crucible.-

ROOSEyHLT'S REPLY CRITICIZED.

The San Jose Mercury, a staunch Re-
uublican paper, comments as follows
xpon President Roosevelt's reply to Adj
ntiral Schley's appeal from the court of
inquiry's decision:
From this reasoning the American
people-a large majority at least-wil
dissent. The evidence of Schley's wit
nesses-and they were as unimpeach-
able as were the witnesses for Admiral
Smpson-inGicated that while in the
main the plans Of the senior Admiral
were followed, in numerous vital de-
tails they were materially changed.
These deviations from the original plan,
say the Schley witnesses, won the bat
tile. The force of the latter testimony
ID aecentuated by the fact lhal it came
from men Who were participants in
the engagement, and who consequently
were in a better position to know than
those who did not participate in it.
The Presidents reference to the late
President McKinley's expressed atti-
ode on the subject is of small value
~ a factor in fixing credit where it be-
langs. 1t is an appeal to sentiment
rather than a conclusion of cold, un-
biased REASONING, and this Mr.. Roose-
welt should have avoided. H. weakens
his argument, and indicates that his
personal sympathies are either with the
Naval Court or personally with Admir-
a Sampson. 1t smacks of evasion and
shows a desire to drift from the real is
sac to irrelevancy and immateriality.
The plain, immovable fact remains as
secure now as it did previous to the in
4hiry; and whatever history may rec
ord, whether it be the miserable dia-
tribe of the shallow Maclay, the full
some tribute of the pro-Schley Gra-
ham, or the intended conciliatory yet il
logical reasoning of President Roose-
welt, the present generation will con-
l4nue to believe that Admiral Sampson
was in Sibonev, ten miles from the
aene of conflict, while Admiral Schley,
standing on the bridge of the Brooklyn,
directed the movements that destroyed
TIE Spanish fleet and incidentally the
proud prestige of the Spanish nation.

decidedly the best, but since the in
