"Wouldn't That List lar You?"

Editor Ellensburg Capital:
sends to the republican state conven-
ton an uninstructed, independent del
egation. Here is what they get: Chair
man of the convention, Edward Whit
son; delegate to the national conven-
ton George Donald; congressman, Yves
ley /. Jones; supreme court Judge, F.
II. Rudkin; superior court judge, Ira P.
Englehart. Wouldn't that list jar you?
The delegation comes home with a
broad smile and the people give them
the greatest blowout and ratification
meeting in the history of the county
and promise to roll up great vote for
the ticket. They play the same sharp
politics every time. Kittitas county
sends to the convention an iron-clad
unit-rule, instructed delegation, tied up
to Henry the First. What did they
get? Nit. You could read the whole
story in their faces as they wandered
disconsolately home. The same old
story, repeated bi-annually, with the
same results.

Last week we published State Mine
Inspector Gregory's report of the Black
Hills gold output for the year 1904 The
report shows difference of $7S,9lS be-
tween 1904 and 1903. The falling off lie
sal to be due entirely to the disastrous
flood during the month of June, when
all the mines in the Bald Mountain dis
trict were flooded out, the railroads for
transportation were washed away and
the mills in nearly all the camps were
compelled to shut down for oyer a
month. There would have been an in
crease of nearly a 100000 had the
food not occurred. There was less placer
mining also, and the Holy Terror mine
at Keystone did not produce during the
year. owing to internal troubles of the
company. During the coming twelve
months new mills will be put in opera
tion, and the output will be increased as
a consequence.
