Will SINK SHAFT.
WELL FOUNDED RuMoR THAT LAMAR
TINE MANAGEMENT HAS 30
DECIDED.
WILL OPEN VERY rich TERRITORY
AND AID IN THE DRIVING ron GRIFFITH
MOUNTAIN.

F. E. Himrod. one of the fortunate
owners Of the Lamartine, has been out
on his annual inspection Of that wonder
full property and must be highly pleased.
as il is an open secret that the mine
never looked better in its history. The
sixth level in particular is showing par
ticularly good. There has for long
time been no special effort made in the
line of production. Shipments have
been continuous, however, aud no COM
plaint is made as to the grade of the ore.
1t is hinted that the main purpose of
Mr. Himrod's visit is to 60 over the
ground and consider the advisability of
sinking ne~ shaft upon the comp any
holdings. the location of the same to be
in Highland park and upon the line of
the main level that is being pushed vest
ward Whether or not. after connection
is effected, this will be the main working
shaft of the gigantic group remains to be
seen.
This contemplated move upon the part
of the I.amartine owners revives the ru-
NOR that it has been the intention all the
time to connect the Lamartine workings
with the Doric tunnel, whose portal is
within the corporate limits of George
town. The preparations being made to
resume work upon that bore add strength
to the surmise. Another coincidence is
the fact that the Doric tunnel and the
Lamartine level running westward are
upon the same grade.
The contem plated shaft will be admir-
ably situated for many purposes. It will
in the first place supply the veutilatiou
needed for the further driving Of the
main level. Being near the center Of the
I.amartine holdings. 4 can be ussd - .
main shaA at that point from which TO
extend levels east and west upon the ore
bodies.
It will necessarily take time to consum-
mate these plans, but the effect will be
when achieved. all the ore
of the Lamartine properties can be econ
omicaliy transported in ore trains run by
ele ctric power to the Doric tunnel dump.
there to be loaded into the railroad cars
standing on the railroad switch. This
will eliminate the present costly haul by
wagon from the Lamartine shaft to Idaho
Springs, . distance Of eight miles.
The new thoroughfare Is not only i'm.
portant from the foregoing standpoint.
but the district that will be opened is one
of the richest in Clear Geek county.

Chester County Politics.

In the appointment of Colonel Fl.
II. Gilkyson, of Phoenixville, as a
member of the st. Louis Fair Com
mission, Governor Penrypacker
has administered another slap to
the faction of which T. Larry Eyre
and Senator Snyder are the leaders.
The first slap was the appointment
of "Birdy" Warren as Dairy
and Food Commissioner and
the recognition of Colonel Gilkyson
is equally distasteful to the Ma
chine. 1t is said the Governor has
a few more slaps in contemplation.
There is no doubt that there is a
lively storm brewing in Republican
circles in the county, and the Ma
chine will have its hands pretty
full of trouble next year. The
passage of the notorious Grady
Salus press mueller for the protec-
ton of the city bosses has placed
the Machine on the defensive,
and the independents are already
taking advantage of it.
The passage of this bill has
aroused Indignation from one Sec
ton of the county to the other, and
when the members who voted for
it come out for denomination they
will have a number of awkward
questions to answer.
There are nineteen papers in
Chester County, which are a unit
in opposition to the Grady Salus
bill, and some of them will make it
pretty uncomfortable for the advo-
Gates of the measures at the proper
time.-Quarryville Sun.

Today, May Ist, the local option law
goes into effect in Cecil county. the leg
allied run mills having been voted out
after long reign, during which their
poisonous sting has been felt in many
homes. Every good citizen of the county
should be on the alert to see that the law,
which makes it illegal to sell or barter
alcoholic liquors within the confines OF
our county, is enforced, and help bring to
justice any one who may violate its pro-
visions, as no matter how good the law or
how carefully framed, it soon becomes a
dead letter if little attempt is made to
carry it into force.
The lovers of temperance should not
think their duty done in alone voting for
the measure, which was carried after
such hard fight, but should be ever
watchful for any would be violator who
may attempt to ply an illegal traffic by
the sale of Intoxicating liquors in some
'blind tiger" or travelling saloon. The
law brands that person a criminal who
shall now sell spirtuous liquors within
Cecil county, and look to it friends OF
temperance, that he who should fail to
observe its provisions shall be made 10
suffer the extreme penalty.

This rise in the price of silver, which
is the biggest since 1890, may be attrib-

In two-column obituary of himself, in
last weeks Democrat, the Honorable
John S. Writ perfumes his record as a
race track advocate. He says all-or
nearly all-his race track endeavors were
exerted in behalf of the promoters of the
sport ~ in the capacity of their paid
attorney; that he framed the iniquitous
bill for the Elkton Improvement Co., but
did not work for its passage simply be-
cause he was not paid for so doing All
these acts, however, were done while he
was employed as counsel aud now that he
is an editor he is going to be good forever

Gibbons and her commission. The expo

reaching from the Mississippi river to the
Rocky Mountains-the very heart of the
American continent, from Napoleon
Bonapart, who besides needing the
money to prosecute his war with Great
Britain, had fear that that nation might
gain possession of louisiana. The pur-
