An Odd Labor Exchange.

OsA~A AAeS~OA
There is III Melbourne, Australia, an
odd labor exchange, which is described
in the Scientific Australian 1t is in
tended primarily for the unemployed
and includes as members accountants,
architects, bakers, dentists, engineers,
printers, authors, artists, journalists,
geologists and piano tuners. .:.at,. 1
Any member in need goes right along
at work at his trade. If he is a shoe-j
maker, for instance, he takes a pair of,
boots to the exchange and receives a.
certificate equivalent to their estimated
value. This he can offer at any time in
return for its value in such other goods
as may be deposited at the exchange by
other members, and thus actual cash is
rendered largely unnecessary, though
how the accountants and piano tuners
can serve the others on the barter prin-
ciple is not SO plain. -. !. 4. :t.,,.. 3 " q.

There amt any of us goin' to board
with John Manning this winter. We
are goin' to hav restricted income off
our farms in spots but when Thanks

the returns of the year, count in every

shall find that while we amt been

enough to weather thro until sowin'

If there's anythin' that makes me
feel like pukin' it's the way lots of fools
faWn and tOady round some of the
fellows with titles that come round
when they are lookin' after their selfish,
personal interests. It's governor this,
and colonel that, and senator somebody
else, until actually it looks like sensi-
BILE man would heaye Jonah. I'd like
to know whether these title chaps real
ly feel above the rest of mankind and
like the toadyin' or whether they despise
the very fools that are showin' off their
assininity. You'd think to see the way
that these toadys interduce the COVER
nor that they slept with him and sup
ped with him and took Schlitz's out of
the same mug with him, when the fact
IS probable that the governor wouldn't
know 'em from Agninaldo if he should
meet him at Ramsey or elsewhere. [
don't take any stock in this fawnin'
business. I'm just as good as any
governor or senator that ever walked
Minnesota. The biggest king or pre-
sident that ever saw light was only a
man with just the same appetite and
makeup as Farmer Ben. Clothes and
rank and titles don't make 'em a bit
better. One thing that l like about
comrade VanSant is that he is a every
day sort OF man. Whenever he sees
Farmer Ben he pats him on the should
er and says, Hello, comrade," Just like
we Was just out in the army camp. I
got all the toadyin' out Of my uatur

I One or my old friends from Mitchell

and he was teilin' me that down there
they are Wrastlin' over election excite
sments and nominations and caucuses
which they haV some of every year. It
seems like old times .to hear of such
5dOin's every year. We used to hav such
right here but those days are happily
gone by never to return. Just a year
ago we were in the political boil and
gettin' excited over primaries and after
the gang Of third ward political cut
throats and thieves and robbers and
#desperadoes, as bloomin' a lot Of
political rascals as the sun ever shone
on, had stolen the republicans of the
county blind and buncoed 'em and
packed the. .caucuses unrighteously and
feloniously and unlawfully and broke
up their plans and purposes, it was a
good thing to Waita couple of years
SOS the people could hay a time to cut
the outrage out Of their memory and
get their swearin' apparatus hot boxes
cooled down and their equilibrium re-
stored, It is terribly tryin' to the con-

up here are tryin' to inject a little
stimulant into the governor business
but it falls pretty fiat and tame. Van

Q It does beat allitho how hungry folks
get for offs and their political paunches
are never, never filled and the worst of
it is you can't fill 'em up and satisfy
'em by hydraulic pressure Workin' on a
filler. You can see5it right from path
master up. We've got ot1is holders in
this county that hav sucked the public
teat for goin' on q quarter Of a century
but, bless ger, ,14theyy Ire more cage and
hungry and ravenous than they were
twenty years ago. VanSant has had
fire to fry his fish on for two terms and
that ought to satisfy any reasonable
man but perhaps Van thinks he's an
unreasonable one. The game is gettin'
to be interestin'. There is a deep root
ed conviction that Eddy and some of
the others that are crowdin' to the
front amt in dead earnest for their
selves but are in some kind of a deal
for later pickin's. So far as can pro-
gnosticate at the present considerations
Bob Dunn is the comm hero to carry
the republican banner to glorious
victory. He's got lots of sand and has
been pokin' UP tax ratin's on the big
corporations in way that just suits
Farmer Ben. When any mans afraid
of corporation whether it's railroad
OF millin' or telephone or sleepin' car or
oil, he's got no business to be governor
or mayor or any thing else official.
the way lots of these officials squirm
and tremble before corporation greed
and aggressiyeness would make brass
monkey gnash his teeth in righteous
indignation. I've got no use for 'em.
I calkerlate that Bob Dunn has gritty
record that will favor him with the
people. It.takes a man with brains as
well as paunch to make a real first,
class, governor. All the same, Ireckon
that it's early yet countin' gubernatorial

THE TON0PAh.
GOLD MOUNTAIN.
Extraction Of Rich Ore for Shipment
Operations Extended.

Since the return from Philadelphia
Of Secretary Runge Of the Gold
Mountain Mining company, the resi-
dent directors and stockholders there
OF have held a meeting and deter
mined To work the property upon a
much more extensive scale, and TO
make it a producer of shipping ore.
Until the recent rich strike was
made in the Hasbrouck, no attention
was paid to certain ledge which
crops out on the Midway claim of the
Gold Mountain company, and which
is composed of ore to all appearance
exactly the same, and which assays
from $44 TO $500 per ton in gold, with
a small amount of silver. OF this
there is a ledge exposed three feet in
width. Some three or four tons are
already on the dump and shift of
miners will be put on the work imme-
diately The management will also
place men to work on the Monte
Cristo claim. IT. will be remembered
that during the early operations at
Gold Mountain several shipments of
ore were made from this particular
property. This netted 1892 per ton.
There is considerable ore exposed at
the bottom of the shaft, and as sink
ing progresses large bodies will un-
doubtedly be developed. Work on
the main tunnel being driven east
from the western side Of the noun
tain will continue right along until
the formation under the outcrop near
the summit is penetrated and the
ledge opened. The managers fully
expect to make the development Of
the claims pay for itself, thus holding
remainder of the treasury stock in
the company's hands.

A Miners Death.

John 7. Brinegar died very sudden
ly ON the 18th Inst. of apoplexy at his
camp in Gold Mountain. The remains
were brought to Tonopah, and on the
2lst funeral services were conducted
by the Odd Fellows at the |. o. o. f.
hall. Many warm tributes of respect
were paid to the deceased by friends.
A musical selection appropriate to
the occasion was rendered by Mrs.
r. B. Davis, the Misses Patterson,
Towner and Scheneman and DR.. Nc
Intyre. At the close of services
friends started with the remains for
Candelaria, escorted to the lower end
Of Main street by members of Bel
mont lodge, |. o. o. F. The remains
are destined for his former home and
place of birth in Missouri. Mr.. Brin-
egar was 80 years old and had mined
and prospected over this western
country for the past twenty-five
years. He was interested with ID. f.
Mccarthy of Tonopah in valuable
group of claims in Gold Mountain.
He was also interested in valuable
claims in Lone Mountain. Only few
days prior to his death he and his
partners negotiated the sale for the
last-named claims and placed the
deed thereof in escrow. A will was
executed few months ago bequeath-
ing all his possessions to his nephew,
Henry T. Patton of Craig, Holt coun.
ty, Mo. Mr.. Brinegar was noted for
his veracity, honesty and integrity.
He was surrounded by friends during
his last moments, who rendered him
all the assistance possible. He leaves
an aged mother, one brother and sis
ter on the old homestead in Missouri.

Great Values Shown.

The east drift ON the 3OO-level OF
the great Mizpah ledge is out to
within $50 feet Of the east end lice Of
the Mizpah ground proper. In its
course ore bodies Of phenomenal
width, ranging from twenty toeighty
feet, have been exploited by continu-
Gus and energetic work. A winze
near the present face of the drift is
now down fifty feet. One section OF
of the ledge, ranging from one foot
TO eighteen inches in width, yields
the richest gold ore yet produced in
this district, even with all its world
wide fame 1t is dense, brown ore of
great gravity, variegated in colors
by various fluid and solid elements in
association, but the essential fact is
best stated by giving its actual value
per ton, which is SO, $50.

QUITE a number of towns
in Tennessee will make an
effort now that the Adams
bill has become a law, to sur
render their present charters
and recharter, in order to
abolish saloons. Undoubtedly
the change will prove bene-

be regretted. We speak from
experience. Bolivar is with
out saloons and the business
as we'll as morals of the town
has improved, a fact to
which every truthful citizen
will testify.
