GOLDEN
TREASURY
STRIKE.
Streak of Ore Has Been Cot in This Prop
erty Valued at $3.50 to the Ton.

strike of no little importance has
been made on the Gold Eagle claim a.
the Gold Treasury gronp, which is stu
ated on the east slope of the Alpin'
mountain, above the town of Freeland
The group, consisting of sixteen claim-
was recently acquired by the Santa F.
Mining. Milling & Smelling company
and is being developed by a crosscut tuu
mel, which has been driven for about 80,
feet, at " hich point the Gold Eagle ver
was encountered. The showing here Wa
so good that the company decided t
sink winze on the ore shoot, which l.
fully four and one-half feet wide; thu,
was sunk to a depth of forty-eight feet
when a bunch OF ore was encountere'
last week eight inches wide, which tn
assay returns show 2.16 ounces gold am
447 ounces silver, or a value of $3.50 pei
ton, not counting the lead and coppe
values, of which there is high percent
age. The management will continue Il
sink the winze on this ore body and ais
contemplates making an upraise to the
surface, as this lode has an excellen
showing. When snrface connections ar,
made they will run drifts on the VEN
from the Wine. Many shipments OF
smelling ore have been made from the
other claims in this group, the values OF
which are about $40 to $50 per ton.

Plenty of Ore.

AT the Edgar there is such a quantity
of ore coming out that the arrangement
for sorting on the dump is glutted.
They have begun hauling to the mill and
this will relieve the situation. The
sampling is done on the dump and is in
charge of Ed Barry. Mr.. Barry is an ex-
perienced sampler and thoroughly re-
liable. The purpose of sampling in this
way is for the purpose of checking on
the mill. Should the mill work show
satisfactory saving the Edgar will con-
tinue from this date as a regular shipper.
There is plenty of ore on the dump and
in sight in the mine to keep one mill oc-
cupied.

PRESENT UPRISING
IN MACEDONIA

Soma, Aug. 11.-"Nothing can end
the present revolution in Macedonia
until our national aspirations are sat
isfed or those fighting to attain them
are eXterminated.'
This was the concluding statement
made to the correspondent of the As
sociated Press who is investigating the
situation in Macedonia, by the Mace
dOnian commission at the revolution
airy headquarters here.
Boris Sarahoff, the head and front
of the movement. is with the insur-
gents in Macedonia. His representa-
tivcs here believe that the desired re
suits will be gained through the pres
cnt movement.
The object of the rising said the
Macedonian committee, is to win re-
form which will assure the Christian
people of Macedonia security for their
lives and property, and the right to
participate in the administration of
IlC country.

COLORADO STATE AFFAIRS AND
DOINGS AT THE CAPITAL CITY
Auditor Will Honor Vouchers.

The vouchers issued by the Worlds
Fair Board at its last session will be
paid. Auditor Holmberg has received
an opinion from Attorney General Mil
Ter to the effect that he is warranted in
honoring them.
The opinion states that if the vouch-
er is acted upon by the board and
signed by the president and secretary,
a possible error as to the correct COM
missionerin-chief, who is required to
sign it. will not make the auditor liable
The material requisite is that the
voucher be acted upon by the board,
and the signature of the officers is on
ly evidence that this has been done.
The attorney general also says that
Commissionerin-Chi Wilson is the
proper person to sign vouchers, and
that their payment is protected by the
action of the board, OF which quorum
is three.
The contention that the members of
the board were appointed by the Leg
islature is deemed fallacy, as in the
act calling for the increase of the board
from three to five members it was Or
dered that the governor should appoint
the new members, so showing that the
Legislature meant that the appointing
power should be in the hands of the
governor. The opinion also cites arti-
cles of the constitution which permit
the governor to remove any person ap-
pointed by him for misconduct, NAL
feasance or incompetency in office.
Unless Van e. Rouse gives up the
$4,000 belonging to the fund, which
he has in his possession, within the
next few days suit will be commenced
to recover it. Rouse has said that he
does not want to hinder the board in
the performance of its duty, but that
he has been advised by his attorneys
not to give up the money until the mat
ter is settled in the courts.
The Grit-advocate., 1903-08-14
Poll Tax Must Be Paid.

Seventy thousand male voters in
Colorado have neglected to pay their
poll tax and unless they come up and
pay the assessments of 81 each. it is
likely that the jails in the different
counties will have to be enlarged to
hold the debtors, says the Denver Re
publican of August 7th.
Adj. Gen. Sherman Bell announced
yesterday that he should demand a
strict collection of the military tax of
81 each for each male voter in the
state. In the past years he says the
collection has been a matter of poll
tics among many county officers and
no efforts have been made to collect
the money.
For this reason he is preparing a
letter to the county assessors which
he will send by registered mail in or
der to insure its receipt. In this let
ter he demands that the law be en-
forced, and says that if the amount
isn't forthcoming soon he will cause
wholesale arrests of those who either
will not pay or who think they can
not, and that he will keep them in Jail
until the amount. with costs, is paid.
Under the law he is able to do this
and he announces that he will carry
out the provisions of the statute with
out fear or favor and that all, from the
highest to the lowest, will stand good
chance of spending some time in Jail
if they do not pay the tax which al
though small at the present time, will,
if fOrcible collection is required
amount to at least 1925.
The changes made necessary under
the Dick militia hill and tho strike AT
Colorado City has been an enormous
drain on the military fund, SO that the
authorities find themselves with a
small amount of money on hand, and
are determined to add to it by collect
ire the $4,000 due from the people
of Colorado.

THE present revolutionary Crg3ni-
ZatiCn came into existence nine years
ago, when the persecution Of the BnI-
garian population of Macedonia be
came fragrant. To-day all Macedonia
is embraced in the movement and
though it was not intended to strike
so soon, because the preparations for
the uprising were not sufficiently com
pleted, the recent OutrageS of the
Turks. the massacre of the innocent,
the filling of the prisons with innocent
persons, the pillaging of villages and
the eXtortion of heavy fines on various
pretcxts, so eXasperated all that insur-
rection was decided upon, no matter
what might be the outcome.
The fighting area is widening and
will gradually embrace every Vilayet
in Macedonia, until the autonomy Of
the country has been gained by force
of arms or by the Intervention of those
great powers which desire peace. Not
until then will we lay down our arms"
The Macedonian revolutionary com
mittee is now drawing up and Will
shortly circulate declaration ad-
dressed to the powers, explaining Ma
ccdOnian grievances and the objects
of the revolution.

My Dear Governor Durbin: Permit

Men must feel the gravest alarm
over the growth of lynching in this

culiarly hideous forms SO often taken

the "ow much the dia-
r,ssessed by the Sultan of

man lynched has been guilty of a
crime horrible beyond description; a
| crime SO horrible that as far as he
| himself is concerned he has forfeited
the right to any kind of sympathy
whatsoever.
THE feeling of all good citizens that
such hideous crime shall not be hide
ously punished is due not in the least
to sympathy for the criminal, but to a
very lively sense of the train of dread
full consequences which follows the
| course taken by the mob in eXacting
inhuman vengeance for an inhuman
wrong. In such cases. moreover, it is
well to remember that the criminal not
| merely sins against humanity in un-
pardonable fashion, but sins particu-
larly against his own race and does
| them wrong far greater than any
white man can possibly do them.
| Therefore in such cases the colored
people throughout the land should in
| every possible way show their belief
that they, more than all others in the
/ community, are Mortified at the COM
mission of such a crime and are peCul-

and to bring the criminal to immediate
