there was no fire in any of the

the FLORENCE GOLD MINE.
Some Statistics Concerning . Gold Pro
duoer In the Medicine Bow Range.
Which il to be Worked During the
Summer Of 1904.

w D4Gn ~ v ~ Jaw SeAAA ~
Summer Of 1904.
From an excellent article in the
Mining Age, we clip the following
concerning the Florence Gold
Mine, situated in the Medicine
Bow range of mountains east of
this place, which has been lying
idle for several years:
The mine has recently been
u%nwatered, drifts cleaned out,
shaft repaired and new portions of
the property prospected. The
ore is contained in a line assure
vein varying in width from Is
inches to 4 feet, a part of which is
high grade and the rest low grade
gold ore In the work of cleaning
out the drifts, l,059 pounds of ore
were taken out, and afterwards
shipped to the Philadelphia smelt-
err in Pueblo, Colo, the returns
from which were 9.94 OF. gold per
ton. The net returns from this
1853 pounds of ore was S97 "a.
A careful estimate of the ore on
the dump shows 1850 tons, and
broken down in the mine is at
least 1900 tons with large guam
titles still untouched. This ore
has been estimated by various
parties to have a value of from
$1,000 to $25, 90 per ton. AT the
lowest estimate, this ore already
mined has value of $lSO,OOO.
"The Florence is one of the
most noted mines in the State of
Wyoming on account of its hav-
ing produced $4,000 in gold with
such a limited amount of develop
ment, and at a time when crude
processes we're in use for the ex-
traction of the precious metals;
only the free gold was saved, the
rich concentrates passing off in
the stream below the mill. Mod
ern methods, such as a concern
trating or cyaniding plant in order
to handle the lower grade of ore,
must be resorted to, as it must
give up it's value in order that the
mining may be done economically
As there is more or less low grade
ore in connection with the rich
sulphides, and it is much cheaper
to take out all the ore at the same
time, the low grade ore is one of
the great resources of the mine,
and it has been demonstrated by
experiment that the values can
easily be saved either by concen-
tration, cyaniding, or both.
"The property is in charge of
ii. G. Marsh, who has recently
discovered a branch vein running
to the southwest of the vein on
which The shaft house is situated.
A three-foot opening has been
made in this vein at a point about
225 feet south of the main vein
and at an elevation of 300 feet.
This opening exposes a streak of
high grade ore from one to six
inches wide and running over 10
ounces in gold to the ton. This
vein is traceable to the northwest
down the hill to the old dump,
II distance of some 200 feet In
all probability this is the main
vein on the property.
1.-THE company have purchased
n reduction plant which will be
installed as soon as it is possible
to get to the property in the
spring, and with the ore now on
the dump and broken down in the
mine, there is no question of be-
ing able to keep the mill running
night and day for years to come.
The officers of this company state
confidentially that they expect to
develop the richest gold mine in
the state"

Education and Politics

EOuC0tlOn ana Politics
BY education we undersand that
intelligent training OF the heart the
hand and the mind which finds its
highest expression ia life of SER
vice and usefulness to home and
country. and capacity for the en-
joyment Of the beautiful and the
sublime in natrue.
Politics we understand TO be the
science Of government-the conduct
of public affairs ia the interest .ot
the whole people, as viewed in the
light Of mature experience sutain-
ed by sound and enlightened pub
lie opinion.
Politics. then, is one form or
phase Of education, and is concer-
ned with emphasizing the purpose
of education in promoting human
happiness and the higher destiny
OF mankind, Politics may then be
regarded as the child of education,
and in that sense it embodies and
reflects the parental character, the
source Of its origin and influence,
The force q politics and educa-
ton are closely related and are
interdependent in their operation
Tor the we'll being Of society; and
believing that universal education
offers and asures the largest
returns to the people ID human
happiness and human progress,

education the principal plank ia
its political platform. And to

Now that The political pot has

For many years past the

been. in general, one Of conspic-

themselves with studying the best

portant public institution is

Institute and that the value and
the influence for good of this edit
cational institution will depend
on the kind and the extent Of aid
and support il will receive from the

-ary that tie parish of Lafayette
should be ably and strongly
