A SHIPPING MINE.
Gabriel Zanoli has the Only Pro

Gabriel Zanoii has the Only Pro-
ducinp Lead Mine Here.
Thursday Of last week we paid a Wis t
to the Rabbit mine, owned by Gabriel
Zanol of Lane City, and was surprised
to fnd such great amount of work
done and learn OF the amount OF sill, er-
load, gold ore that has been shipped
from this mine every summer for the
past six years Ia all nearly four
thousand feet of work, consisting of
tunnels drifts, up-raises, wines and
Slopes, has been done In opening up
the property.
The ore vein is of a blanket nature,
with varying dimentious, lying on the
contact of lime and porphyry, which
was of very fatty formation until the
workings penetrated we'll into the
mountain. In manys places tho vein
pinched TO thick ness OF one inch, but
carried concentrated lead carbonates
of very high grade. They we're at
work on one of these small veins this
weak. after having just passed through h
good body of ore, from which car
load was shippsd last week. While
the vein at that time appeared very
small to us, still MIR. Zinoii said it
was not at all discJuraging to him and
in feet more would open up into an
other pocket. as it has always done be-
fore.
The lack OF sufficie Mt money to deyel-
op the mine according to his idea OF
tine existence of the big ore deposit as
>hown by the other v orkings, has al
ways prevented the IN ne being large
prod uc-r, but it has paid for its own
deye opment on the sm Ill vein now ne
ing worked. Here is an opportunity
for some one, who is not afraid to
spend little money, to buy an interset
iu this property, and with little more
work might open up a big producer.

which the convention meets, and at the
time fast becoming the idol Of his
party; Quay, leader in the Republi-
can councils for generation-these
are three names the thought Of which
cast shadow over the convention and
a genuine spirit of sorrow.
There is no doubt that the terribly
sudden death of President Mckinley
at time when the country was start
ing out along an untrodden pathway
has brought about change in the
manner in which party leaders regard
the post Of Vice President. 1t is doubt
full if either the Republicans or the
Democrats will ever again consent to
name for the second place on the ticket
an untried man.
No notable oratorical efforts were
looked for in this convention, though
two or three of the men selected TO
second the Presidential nomination had
the ability to deliver stirring utter

SENATOR FAIRBANKS.

ances. Not since $780, at the Nation
al Convention in Chicago, when Conk-
ling and Garfield spoke, has national
Republican gathering been prolific OF
notable addresses. Indeed, with the
sole exception of these speeches and
the one delivered in 1876 by Robert g..
Ingersoll in his famous advocacy OF
the candidacy of Blaine, the Republi-
cans have never in the history of the
party produced a noteworthy conyen-
tion address, a fact, however, that
does not seem to have made very much
difference at the polls. On the other
hand, the most magnetic and remark
able convention speech ever delivered
that by Mr.. Bryan in 1S96-while it
rang from one end of the country to
the other for months, could not land
him in the White House.
The elimination of the element of
doubt can never lessen in our national
conventions the significance of the
nominating act, for it is at time like
this probably more than at any other
save when the oath of office is being
administered by the chief justice Of
the United States, that the individual
citizen gets thorough realization Of
the power and scope Of the executive
office.

The temporary organization Of the
convention having been effected for
mer Secretary of War Elihu Root of
New York, took the gayel as tempo
rary chairman. At the close of Mr..
Roots speech the temporary organ1-
cation Of the convention being in full
swing, an adjournment was taken I'M
til Wednesday.
Seldom has there been national
political convention the final results OF
which, as regards all essential ques-
tons, were so clearly foreseen as they
were in the case Of this convention.
So far as concerned the most import
ant business before the delegates, the
program as published could have been
carried through like the program OF
concert or a college commencement.
Nothing disturbed the orderly Sc
ouence of the orations, the band num-
bers and the other formalltles attend
ing Mr.. Roosevelt's nomination, ana
while the platform resolutions were
awaited with great interest no one eA-
nected them to contain anything new.
Despite the absence OF contest Iof
the nomination the convention was
extremely interesting. 1t was as tull
of thrilling and exciting incidents as
the convention at Philadelphia IN

sia Will Attack England.
Capt. August Niemann of the Ger
man army has written book, entitled
"The World War;" in which he predicts
that Russia, France and Germany will
engage in a war with England, the re-
suit OF which will be fresh apportion-
ment of the earth.
although" says Capt Niemann, 1.-THE
responsibility of a world war is great,
and although the idea of peace of ma
tons is very pleasant, valuable acquisi-
tons are won only by the expenditure
of blood and iron.
"If the German people intend to par
ticipate in the struggle for the domina-
ton of the world it must accustom itself
to the idea of the coming war. In the
course of long years England has grown
great through the dissensions of CONT
mental powers. For centuries past Eng
land has reaped advantages from every
war, most of which were instigated by
herself.
at required the genius OF Bismarck
to awaken the German empire to a sense
of its power. Shall Germany be con-
tent to be dependent on England for
light, air and for daily bread, or has she
retained some of the power which won
her victories?
"Will the three powers which stood
together after Japan's victory over China
to thwart England's plans-will Ger
many, France and Russia remain longer
idle, or viii they combine for their mu-
tua. benefit?
Il see in spirit the armies and navies
of Germany, Russia and France adj
vancing against the common enemy
England-which like an octopus encircles
the world with it's tentacles.
MY dreams of Germany bring clear
ly before me the war and the victory Of
three great nations-Germany. France
and Russia-oyer England, and the fresh
apportionment of the possessions of the
earth as final result of this mighty
struggle"
