BLIND piggers cannot find much sat-
isfaction in the act of 1901 which is
one making provisions for the pun
ishment Of parties who keep blind
pig. The act of 1901 provides for a
fine or imprisonment, while the law of
1894 which provides for the punish
ment of those convicted of the illicit
sale of liquor imposes both a fine and
imprisonment. A certain blind bigger
who was convicted and who was fined
and given a sentence as we'll, appealed
to the State supreme. court, but the
court says that the act of 1901 does not
repeal any portions of the act of 1894
imposing the double sentence. It
would seem thatthe blind pigger would
have hard shedding under both laws.
The act of 1901 gives the authorities
the power if the party arrested isfound
guilty, of destroying all the LIQUORS
found on the premises and of selling
the fixtures, furniture, ETC.. to the
highest bidder and the proceeds of
such sale are to be turned over to the
county in which. the offense is COM
mitted.

THE SCRUB MUST 90.

There is one very encouraging sign
in the realm Of agriculture and that is
the attention that is being paid to
the raising of a better class of
live stock by all farmers. 1t
was not SO long ago that many farmers
were of the opinion that there was
not much use OF paying~any attention
to breed, but they are rapidly getting
oyer this notion and finding out that
breed and blood tells. At a recent live
stock sale at Sioux City Col. Woods,
one OF the greatest live stock auction
GERS in the west,a said: IT..
e. 1T is a war on scrubs, a war to- con-
solidate, to make i've good COWS worth
as much as twenty-five poor ones.
This isn't theory; it's practice. There
stands a COW. You've been handling
such as she for years and you never
produced from them a yearling worth
above $25. There is another COW. .Ex-
perience has proved that <her breed
will produce yearlings worth s75 to
$475. Which does the business man
on the farm want? =:
1--WE want less beef and better beef,
and we are moving in that direction.
At Minneapolis there have been twen-
ty-three annual Short Horn sales, by
H. F. Brown. For twenty-three years
his cattle have averaged $3.50, and last
year S74l per head. Tell me any
legitimate business that will beat it?''
Col. Woods has hit the nail squarely
on the head, and what he SAYS comes
pretty near being law and gospel for
live stock breeders. The farmers
must remember one very important
thing, and that is his land is enhanc-
ing in value right along and with high
priced land the successful farmer will
be compelled to make farming an ex-
act science. But he will be the better
for it and reap more profit. We have
not got to 60 far from Princeton to
find many farmers who know very lit
tie about the value of good sire, and
think any old thing will do for breed
ing purposes, and then they wonder
why they do not get better milk and
more milk, and why cattle buyers do
not pay them as much for stock as they
do their neighbors who perhaps real
ize the value of a good sire. These
kind of farmers have got much to
learn yet. 49,

THE exact status of minor political
parties is more or less indefinite. and
the question is where are they at. The
primary election law was not intended
to wipe out these, parties, which great
or small, and whether of any conse-
quence or not, have the right under
the law to exist, and to nominate can
didates for Office without any unreason-
able distractions or hinderances. The
legislature it would seem has not the
power to arbitrarily define what a
political party should be to entitle it
to recognition under the law. The
right to political opinions and the
right to voice such political opinions
by nominations and by the right of
suffrage can certainly not be abridged
in any manner, so long as these polit.
ical opinions do not conflict with an
orderly system of government, and are
not a menace to the peace and pros
perity of society.

THE. WEST INDIES CATASTROPHE.

AHH " Eol 1NDlES CL41-AS1ROPHE.
The series of destructive EARTHQUAKES
that have been tumbling down portions
of cities and villages in Guatemala and
adjacent places the past few weeks
eliminated last Thursday in the dread
full eruption*of Mount Pe1ee that tow
ers over 1000 feet above the city OF
st. Pierre, on the island of Martinique,
a French possession situated in the
groupe OF Lesser Antilles, southwest
of Porto Rico. The volcano burst into
fame and smoke and in a few minutes
had buried St. Pierre with it's 10000
people under an avalanche of molten
lava. 1t is said that but few people
escaped, only thirty from the city get
ting away in boats. This is one of the
worst disasters of modern times and in
fact it WILDE considered and is one of
the worst catastrophes in the worlds
history. It is estimated that at St.
Pierre and at points on the island
about 100000 lost their lives. This
horrible calamity was the work of but
few minutes. The volcano that had
not been in state of eruption since
1851 began showing ominous indica-
tions several days before it vomited
forth death and destruction, but the
people did not pay much attention to
the sounds of warning and few we're
left to tell the story. This disaster
was followed by one of lesser magni-
tude on the island of St. Vincent, a
British possession, near Martinique,
few days later when the volcano,
Soufriere, became active and COM
menced to throw lava, and belch forth
destruction from the bowels of the
earth. Several hundred people lost
their lives and much property was de-
stroyed, and Kingstown, a lively trad
ing city situated on the same island,
was threatened.
The earth seems to be in an angry
mood down in that section and things
are popping at very lively rate. It
is hellish matinee to say the least.
After all such dreadful visitations only
tend to show what a frail thing is man
with all his great works and discover
les. The earth speaks in an angry
mood and blots out for all time thous-
ands OF human lives in the twinkling
OF an eye. St. Pierre was half dem6l-
lshed by an earthquake in 1889 and
was nearly consumed by fire in 1890,
and short time afterwards Suffered
from the effects of cyclone. It was
one of the most picturesque cities of
the West Indies. It was beautifully
situated geographically and its chief
traffic was in sugar and rum.
Most of the island was devastated
and ruined, and those that are living
are left on a barren and desolate piece
OF land blistered and crusted over with
the scoria from the burning mountain.

IT is said that Moutet, the governor
general of Martinique, summoned a
scientific commission the day before
Mount Pelee blew up, and the learned
scientists agreed that St. Pierre was
50 situated as to escape from the erupt-
ION should one occur. The governor
and his commission slept the next
night with their eyes open and left the
doomed city early the next morning in
a yacht. If they had communicated
their fears to the people and warned
the ships that we're lying at anchor,
thousands of people might have been
saved from an awful death.

That sort of story has served to
whet the appetites of gold seekers
wherever the news has penetrated,
and the pilgrimage to the region
with it's attendant privations, strug-
giles, disappointments and yet ever
hopefulness Of final rich strike, has
been begun.
Prof. E. H. Mead, after a careful
inspection of the district, says:
''Taking it as a whole, it is the most
wonderful mining country I ever ex-
pect to see. ! should judge the radi-
us of the mineral zone around
Thunder mountain is about IS miles.
The formation of the country is prin.
cipally granite and gneiss, together
with quartz, porphyry, ryolite and
trachyte. The granite is rich in
f1uorite, and in my opinion the
formation is favorable for the dis
covery of great deposits of gold
bearing ores"
State Mine Inspector Jacobs, of
Idaho, in his annual report of the
state has this to say: what may
be termed the Thunder mountain free
milling district consists of terri
tory of from five to eight miles in
length and approximately the same
in width, and is of an eruptive
formation, the rock being porphyry.
phonolite and lava, and, while the
Dewey company claims are the only
ones that have to any extent been
developed, it is known that for a
mile on each side are claims showing
great values, among these being the
Sunnyside group, the property of the
Caswells, and claims owned by H. E.
Taylor and NJ. F. Ely, and also 9TH
err claims. It is reasonable, there.
fore, to expect that other mines of
great value will be found"
And as Thunder mountain is but a
section of the vast mountainous por-
ton of Idaho, it may be considered
not at all chimerical to expect that
the richness of Thunder mountain
may be duplicated by other discov-
cries. CUSTER Idaho and Lemhi coun-
ties, through which the mountain
range runs, may be termed as unex-
plored, and the possibilities Of this
region will in the years to come af-
ford fascinating hunting ground

we'll went to Idaho from Texas to
engage in stock raising, and during
the summer months searched for
gold. While out along Monumental
creek two men met them one day
and told them that they would find
plenty of gold if they followed Mule
creek to it's source. This they did,
and after search of months, during
which time they found little gold,
they stumbled on an extinct crater,
and here is where the mining dis
trict, declared to be of fabulous rich
ness, is located. They took out $10,-
600 in gold and then sold their claim
to Col. w. H. Dewey, a successful
mine operator, for 100000.
The peculiar character of the gold
deposits of this Thunder mountain
section is explained by Newton
Hibbs, the well-known mining ex-
pert, as follows: 1.-THE theory is
that the gold was elected from the
craters of the district in the ordinary
form of natural salts, and that it
was precipitated at high degree of
temperature by chemical agents The
extensive overflow of the Thunder
mountain volcanic center was evil
IDENTIFY acted upon by the proper ma
tural chemicals to precipitate and
concentrate the values of an igneous
formation that was, perhaps, not ex-
ceedingly rich as it was elected from
the craters. Auriferous deposits, as
a general rule, are confined to vein
systems that must from their nature
be limited to assures and metamor-
phose contracts, but the Thunder
mountain ore bodies are not confined
to walls. The naturalization oc-
Cured as the mountains were built
by the flow of molten matter from a
volcano. This lava forma ton covers
miles of the earth's surface in that
wild mountain region. Natures

itation evidently formed pay shoots
around the craters, as was the case
in the Telluride belts of Colorado.

transported to the Thunder noun
tain mines and set up as soon as
ready. The region covered by these
gold deposits is supposed to cover
about $4,000 miles. 1t is said to have
all the elements to make it success,
plenty of ore, the most beautiful and
numerous streams imaginable, lots
of wood and good, energizing cli-
mate. The Boise City (Idaho) News
reports that plans are being enter
tanned of pushing railroad through
from Salt Lake within so miles from
the heart of this great field. It is
predicted that few months will see
big population there, and that it
will be a second Transvaal.
While it is true that there are one
or two large interests holding the
most valuable claims that have vet
been discovered in the Thunder noun
tain fields, still it is the poor mans
mecca, and hundreds are flocking to
the region, seeking wealth, and it is
in the efforts of these Individual gold
seekers that the geatest interest
centers. AS high as $500 has been
taken out, it is said, by two men in
one day, one pounding decomposed
quartz, in which the free gold is held,
in hand mortar, and the other
panning it in prospector's pan.

Some curious effects are resulting
from this rise in the price of MEAT
For one thing, it has made vegetables
more popular, and people who. d few
months ago, would have scorncd Il
strictly vegetarian diet, find that
they have been forced to it from cir
cumstances if not from choice
1t is making garden spot of Chi
cago.
1t has opened a new market for the
purvenders of garden seeds
Every householder with two-by-
four back yard is cultivaiiny every inc II
of space an indulgent landlord has
provided him with. Peas, beans and
potatoes have taken the place of flow
ers in the window boxes hat so often
represent the. only gardening spot of
the Chicago resident.
Another thing this skyward flight Of
MEAT has done, it has caused a rise
in the rental value of suburban prop
erty, for the reason that suburba n
houses usually have yards. and yard
means place in which to grow the
necessities of life. Some are even pro-
.vided with pigstys, or a small lot in
which COW may be fattened. and so
the luxury of MEAT is possibility.
One heavy owner of suburban prop
erty said to me day or two ago that
the renting season now just closed
had been the best he had ever expert
enced in the suburbs. THE people
want, and must have, yards" he added.
In other words the people are turning
farmers from force of necessity.
The price of MEAT has forced rare
season upon the owner of suburban
property that he desires to rent
