Prince Metchersky. editor of the
 Grashdanin, who has just been sent out by the cZar to report personally on the
 recent Agrarian outbreaks in Russia
 was the only Russian journaiist who. despite official warnings. dared to tell the truth about the famine and fever making havoc in the provinces. He once demonstrated how futile the pass port regulations of Russia were. He crossed to Roumania and obtained one cf the permits required when taking live stock over the border. Armed with this. he went to one of the less ire Quented frontier posts and boldly pre- scented the document to the sub officer in charge as his warrant to pass. The official could read no Roumanian and little Russian. but saw big, official looking paper with an imposing coat of arms and seal, and straightway

News of the North
PRESCOTT

Prescott, August 14-(Special Cor respondence of The RcDublican).-An- other good rain fell here yesterday morning, and at Mayer and vicinity there was a heavy downpour for three or four hours. Big Bug creek was booming. and in one place on the Po- land extension of the P. and l.. rail road the track was buried in dirt so deep that the morning train could ncs get through to Poland, but it was cleared away during the day.
 There are many Phoenix people here some coming from the valley and others from Iron Springs. All seem to be en- toying themselves and the sensation of seeing it rain again.
 The new S50000 schoolhouse is grow ing rapidly. The walls of the basement and first story are up and it will ha but short time till the building is en- closed.
 Politics is warming up and there are eight or nine democratic candidates for sheriff in the field already. The trav- eler through the mining camps who does not run against one or another of them is of a lonesome disposition in deed and feels that he cannot amount to much. There are some aspirants in the field for ether offices, particularly for the legislature. but most of them are on still hunt.
 What at present seems to be q fine prospect for q big copper mine is the Morning Star group, situated eight miles due east of Jerome Junction. It belongs to C. H. Bowers of Phoenix and Mrs. J. NJ Baker and Willis Dimes of Prescott. They are developing as rapidly as possible and are greatly pleased with results Sinking has been discontinued, however. owing to the fact that q 155 feet they found wate. in quantities toO large to handle with out a pump. They are now drifting or the 150-foot level and have gone fifteer feet from the shaft in opposite direc- tions. the workings being all in vein matter with no walls located. Their orc runs from per cent to 20 per cent.

The usual conversation passed in mak- ing trade. as I had the gun made specially. and the lock. a solid silver plate. and the trap in the breech had formerly been on pistol that belonged to my grandfather. The lock plate was engraved and had the word Lon don stamped or it in Italic caps. Car son insisted I should sell it to him. as he always used a Nix" rife.

BIG HAJLAGE EXPENSES

X Kingman. Ariz., correspondent of the New York Commercial says
 Superintendent Jennings of the Grand Gulch mines reports that from Novem- Der. 1899 to date there has been shipped to the smelter f.G00 tons of ore the aV- craze of which was A per cent copper, ounces silver and $1 gold. For this ore nearly $100.0GG was received from t,le snelter The wagon haul from the mine to the railroad is 1S0 miles for which ,haulage $23 per ton is paid. Rail- road freight amounts to $6 per ton. a total haulage charge of $29. The smell tcrs make low treatment charge on account of the desirable quality of the ere. but nevertheless the cost of mar keting the ere is entirely too high. No railroad nov building will reach any nearer to the property. About 40 miles east of the Grand Gulch mines are the
 mines Of the Coconino Copper company, which is just now operating . teaching plant with great success. The ore Of this company is equally as rich as that of the Grand Gulch. but the haul is still greater to the railroad. All the ores are of an oxide and carbonate na- ture and are easily leached or smelted on the ground. The veins are all large. but being in a sandstone formation are somewhat irregular ill dip.
