They will Not Support Cleveland.

R. L. Metcalfe, editor of the Omaha
World Herald, and an earnest Jeffer-
sonian Democrat, firm believer in
the integrity of W. j. Bryan, has
come to the front with q strong editor
ial in which he declares 1t the duty of
every real democrat, in case the i'm
perialist supporters of Grover Cleve-
land get control of the next national
democrat convention and adopt an
anti-democrat platform to vote direct
for Teddy Roosevelt. This position
needs qualification. The republican
party management is thoroughly inn
perialist. In sentiment Teddy may be
better than his party managers, but
totally unable to shape the policy of
his administration. He must recoe-
nize the trusts. Until the people be-
come so self-reliant as to elect an anti
trust congress there will be no reform
alton in the lawmaking power and no
safety for the masses, therefore the
Bryan democrats, to be consistent
must vote their sentiments; they must
refuse to follow the lead of Grover.
and every other regenade from the
principles set out in the Declaration
OF Independence. They must rally un-
der the Peoples party banner, the only
one that honors the fathers of our nat
ional motto: 'Freedom for all and I'm.
limited equality before the law With
no special priv ileges." Whatever
may be the present impertalist con.
tention in either of the old party CON
ventions, the next election will clear
the way for the advent of = reform
party that will crush out despottsm

over 10000 licenses for the sale Of in
toxicants. A return made a few years
ago showed that there were then in
England and Wales 1125, 944 con- and

Ireland 1882. All but about 10000

Go Ha4her UD.

Speaking of England's new liquor
law at great meeting Of bishops and
priests in Dublin the other day, one
of the speakers said that while it
might not be possible in the language
Of cynicism ito make a man sober by
act Of parliament" it had been demon
strated to be possible by act Of parlia-
ment Ito make it uncommonly unpleas-
ant for the fellow who got drunk"
The next thing In the solution of tho
liquor problem, says the Union Signal,
will be an act Of parliament making it
still more unpleasant for the man who
furnishes the drink for the fellow to
get drunk upon. j. H. -

Quite q Difference,

Republican organs and leaders now
insist that our money system is in
need of extensive repairs and some.
thing must be done during the next
session of congress. During the last
two presidential compaigns these same
organs and leaders 6ercely commended
that any tampering with the system
was dangerous; that the system was
the best in the world, and that the
man who said it needed fixing was Ia
boring under delusion. 1t does not
seem that our republican friends are
just trifle inconsistent in this matter.
Farmers Leader.
Well, don't you see the difference?
At that time the demand for change
came from the people. Now it comes
from the tinanciers.

There is no question but what the
principles of the republican party have
firmer hold on the American people
at this time than at any period Of the
party's history, and the fact that Eng
land today is agitating the adoption
Of protective policy is sure ipdica.
ton that the eastern world is being
forced to realize that America under
republican rule has the strongest and
most stable governmental policy OF
any country on earth today.-Litch-
field News Ledger.
The fact that England is beginningto
talk of protection is no proof that it
recognizes the principle of protection
as the correct one. It means simply
that it is forced to fight the United
States with the same weapon we use.
England proposes to tax agricultural
imports for double purpose. Such
a tax would be retaliation against
the United States for shutting out Eng
lands manufactured products, aud
England hopes by making exemptions
from this tax on goods coming from
her colonies to get almost absolute
control of the trade of those colonies,
and thus again limiting the markets
for this country's products.
AS long as England remains free
trade country protection is q good
thing for the manufacturers of this
country. It is rather doubtful if the
principle will be as popular here if
England begins to use it. Our farmers
will of course be the first to feel it.
Already their products are shut out OF
many European countries because our
senate refuses to adopt reciprocity
treaties with those countries. But as
yet our greatest foreign market, Eng
land, is open. With that shut, prices
on agricultural products here must
fall if we are to compete with the Bril-
fish colonies. The great grain rails
ing regions of Canada would receive
an impetus that would make it a.
formidable competitor with our grain
regions. But our manufacturers could
not escape the consequences of such q
condition. The reciprocity between
England and her colonies would limit
the market for American goods. The
diminished demand for our agricultur-
al products would reduce the ability
OF the farmers to buy the products of
our factories. Thus our manufacture
ers would lose in both the foreign and
domestic trade.
If our farmers were as ready to look
out for their own interests, and as in.
dependent of party affiliations as the
manufacturers are, the senate would
have adopted the pending reciprocity
treaties long ago, and the executive
department would be negotiating new
treaties to open markets for our agri-
cultural products. But as long as the
Farmers vote the republican ticket any
way the party leaders will consider it
dolly to reduce the tariff on any manu-
featured articles in order to help the
farmer. If England carries out it's
present intentions we shall probably
sec our manufacturers begin to clamor
for reciprocity treaties, and then there
will be something done in a hurry.

HUNTING A LOST MINE.

Charley Kicker. we'll and favorably acquainted in Bisbee, was vaccinated long years ago with view to protect him from the disease known a.s rnys teromanis, but the serum lid not seem to work we'll and conorrcw morning Charley departs for Old Mex ico where he proposes to find, locate. denounce. explore and operate an old abandoned mine away of some where down in the bosom of the Si erra Madres.
 He will proceed to HerMissillo by rail. take blackboard several leagues east, transfer to burro5 a decent dis tance. walk twenty or thirty miles and finish up by climbing a grape vine to the mouth of an old tunnel where he will battle with bats and mould and rotten timber5. until the original formation is laii bare and the fortune in sight. Charley thinks he has his bearings. He understands that the lost bonanza is sixty-five miles from the capital of Sonora fifty miles of which is distinguished for the total absence If moisture. Il is to be hoped that Charley will have the laugh on his home community when he returns, bu. there is a bad margin against that happy result.

THE ESPERANZA.

The ESperanza, owned by Messrs. Ord. Muheim and Shattuck, located in the same district as the Easter Sunday. are at work in a tunnel which is now in 40 feet, and in ore which assays s9.0O to the ton. The management expects to strike the main ledge within the next thirty five feet of work
 Besides the present tunnel in which the work is being done another tun- nel has been run above the present one and a shaft has been sunk or. the ledge to distance of 50 feet Ore in the shaft assayed $50 to $500 per ton.

The East Side has large amount ol ere already blocked out and when op- erations are again resumed it will be On a large scale. Mir.

EASTER SUNDAY.

The owners of the Easter Sunday mine. one of the richest gold proposi- tions in the entire district. have let another contract on this property fer an additional 100 feet in the tun- nei. Very rich ore was recently er- countered in this property in the face of the tunnel which has caused the owners to make immediate ar engagements for an additional 100 feet
 In the lower end of the district there is nothing startling to report The Copper Glance is handling the flow of water nicely and is able to continue operations. The Marquette & Arizona and Pittsburg & HecIa, the Bisebee Consolidated. and Hough- ton Development company are all working to their fullest capacity. In the Marquette & Arizona a small amount of water made its appearance this week and pumps for this proper ty are already contracted for.

Slasher has a perfect mania for conversation. He'll go into a cloth ing store for a suit and discuss base ball or the chances of political par ties with the salesman: he'll go into book store for a novel and startle the proprietor with aGisQuisition on the architecture of the building across the way: he can go, and goes, from boots to bottles. from hawks to handsaws, from nails to nMmismatics with the most amazing and hard to follow celerity.

Ben Schoenebaum is just in from the Exposed Reef. Ben is an expert stone cutter, but never did any drill ing beyond the point that is necessa- " 10 wedge of good building rock and imaculate head stones, but he tells us what is going on on the sur face at the Exposed Reef
 The management have moved the mill down to the lower end of the property and are installing a cyanide process.

Superintendent Bogue expects hand some results as soon as the new system is started off.
 If the old roller process should fail to reduce the ore to the proper con- dition, the company will put up a standard stamp mill. as no fears are entertained in regard to the ability of the management to recover the values when the rock is properly re duced.

GOLD TREASURE MINE

The directors of the Gold Treas ure mines, visited Naco this week for the purpose of selecting site for the mill which is cue to arrive at the mines within the next twenty days. The mill to be erected will be of the twenty stamps capacity and is one of the most improved patterns The directors on their previous trip to the mines had several thousand pounds of the ore shipped to Denver where a careful test of the particular class of machinery required for the Gold Treasure was made After several tests the mill was chosen and as soon as it can be erected on the property the Gold Treasure will become an ac- tive producer. The Gold Treasure is now owned by the Arizona Mining and Developing company, an Okla homa organization, with c. J. Jones. president of several railway lines, e. its head. The new company has un- limited capital in the treasury and there is no stock in the new company for sale. R. V. Daniels the retiring president of the old Gold Treasure company is expected back in Naco this week from California.

4 SLIGHT MINING SENSATION
 FROM THE DRAGONS

It seems that the Cochise Strong hold is the theatre of a warm little mining excitement A multitude of tourists and prospectors have ram bled over the historical ground, only to gaze in wonder at the mighty sand stone boulders and the sublime profusion with which nature has scattered her gigantic pebbles ever the mountains. Quite recently a cloud burst, or a remarkably enthu- siaStic rain to say the least, uncov- cred respectable body of ore in the Stronghold.
 From cur informant We may con- clude that it is washed out in a reg. ular dump from which shipping ore may be sorted by the car load. T,ie ground for some distance around has been located by Mrs. E. R. Hanc ,ok and others. The new find is about east of St. Davids. a distance of twelve or fourteen miles over a coun- try we'll adapted to good roads ani more may be heard from it in the near future.

THE FLATS TO THE FRONT.

A broad source of profound mining speculation has been found in the subject WHAT CAN WE EXPECT OF THE FLATS?s
 The flats in the Warren district embrace the broad mesa stretchin5 out from the rich copper bearing foothills near Bisbee toward the San Pedro river. Naco and the Mexican line.
 These flats have been located as sodidly as a checker board. They have been practically pronounced mineral land by the United States Geological survey, and no attempt is made at homesteading in view of the generally conceded fact that they are strictly mineral lands.
 In the case of the Lake Superior & Pittsburg. fine bodies of mineral in place have been developed right cown to the border of this grelJ mesa, the Calumet & Bisbee are striking 1attering prospects within a few hundred feet of ground level enough for automobile operations. The Wolverine. whose future is prac- tically assured, enjoys a broad view of the big mesa at an easy distance while thousands of tons of high grade copper has been furnished by the White Tail Deer which is situated or practically level ground
 Now comes the Junction away down on the Lowell townsite, with successful drilling operations and Q substantial strike in their big shaft at about 135 feet.
 Down on the flats, Do operations 9, extent have ever been attempted, bui the surface formation is. exactly icen tical with those found on the surface of the old producing copper propef- ties in the district, and interests 1T the Flats is rising rapidly.

WEEKLY RESUME.

As might have been expected the sensation Of the week in mining cir cles was the strike of ore in the Junction shaft at a depth of 135 feet The encountering of ore at this depth was a complete surprise to the man asement and they could hardly be fieve their own eyes when the rich copper glance ore was hoisteG on top. The strike of ore in the shaft of the Junction is further evidence that the diamond drill, which attained a depth of six or eight hundred fee, in the same locality. proved all the company desired to know. before il was moved to another part of the same group At the time the Calu- met & Arizona people purchased the Junction group. it was conceded by those ir a position 10 know, that the ground had been practically proven by the development work done at the C. & A, and the price paid for these claims down on the fat" was further evidence that this was the truth. The present strike of ore IS the best evidence, however, ard the We go to press.
 Outside of the above, the opera tions in the district among the de- velopment companies, were about as chronicleG last week The Higgins, which has gained an enviable reputa- tion, for being quick of action. has secured new pump and work con- tinues at that promising proverty without further Interruption. New development work was inauguratei there during the week just closed. consisting of drift on the 900 level.
 Brokers during the week just closed report trading in stocks com paratively quiet. although twelve transactions in stocks are reported for yesterday. ranging from 800 to 5000 It is more apparent with each passing day that the Bisbee in- vestins public are only waiting to be fired with the electrical announce mert that body of ore has been en- countered, in any one of the develop
 
 strings will be koosened and Bisbee. instead of Calumet will set the pace in stock trading in the Warren dis trict stocks The same sentiment prevails in Bisbee as reported from Calumet. Missouriars pretominate to a large extent among the wise ones who are leaning back in their office chairs, with sign on the front door Show Mel"
 It is a source of satisfaction, to every investor who owns a share of stock in the Warren mining district, to know that the development work is ir charge of practical men. That economical manner and directed by old nirers in the district who are copper stained clean through and are perfectly familiar with the formation.
 It would be phenomenal if all were to strike ore This is not expected but with no less than a dozen devel opmeut shafts going down, with sufh cient capital behind each one to drive it 15O0 feet, if there is any ore in the Warren district outside of Copper Queer and c. & A.. some one is going to find it. Considerable interest at tatches to the stockholders meeting of the Modern, to be held in Bisbet on October 18th. It is reported b, the heaviest stockholders now on tht ground. that this property will pas! into the hands of wealthy New York men. the consideration being the control of the company by them and that development on a larg' scale will be commenced by them a an early date.
