day learned that the managers of
Mr.. Johnson's campaign had secured
a copy of Public Examiner Johnson's
reprot on the management of the State
auditors office during my administra-
ton, which I understand has been
filed with you, and that the intention
is to publish and circulate the same
throughout the State. I am totally
ignorant of the contents of the report
in question and, as it is in the nature
of an indictment against me, I think
am entitled to copy of the same so
as to enable me to refute the charges
therein contained. Hence I would re-
spectfully request that you furnish, or
cause to be furnished to me, at the
earliest possible moment, copy of
said report, and any expense incurred
in making the copy I will gladly pay.
Now if the report is not in your pos
session I hope and trust you will re-
quest the party who has control of it
to let me have a copy.
am ready and willing to meet any
and all charges that may have been
made or that may be made against my
official character as State auditor by
MIR. johnson or any one else, and I
think it is grossly unfair to me to
afford my enemies an opportunity to
attack me on the ex parte statement of
one OF your appointees and not afford
me a chance to refute the charges. In
few days I will be out in the State
conducting my campaign, and my
time will be fully occupied, therefore
I would be pleased to have a copy of
the report at this time.
Hoping you will see fit to comply
with what seems to me a very reason
able request, I remain -
II Very truly yours, :.

My intention was to make public
Mr.. Johnson's report after I had ex-
amined into it and at the same time
I give my refutation of the same to the
public. Evidently Gov. Van SAINT
knew full we'll that could refute and
prove conclusively from the records
that Mr.. Johnson's report was totally
devoid of truth, and before I received
a copy of the same it was given to all
the newspapers for publication.
The Democratic newspapers, under
glaring headlines, gave Mr.. Johnson s
diatribe the benefit of their circula-
ton. The reader should bear in mind
that in his last report, as far as tim
Der matters are concerned, Mr.. John
son deals with permits issued under
previous administrations, long before
I assumed the duties of State auditor,
! with the evident intent of confusing
dates and deceiving the people. Let
1t be thoroughly understood that when
[ assumed the duties of the Office of
State auditor there were no timber
records to speak of in the Office, every
thing being in a chaotic state More
than that, the appropriation for car
ing for State lands had been ex-
hausted and I was obliged to wait
several weeks for the passage of a
deficiency appropriation to enable me
to put cruisers in the field. AS soon
as funds were available I employed
three reliable cruisers and put them to
work, and later employed several
additional cruisers temporarily. AS
far as possible the timber covered by
every legal permit outstanding was
looked over and every precaution

Concise and
to the Point

The Imperial Corona Geld Mining
Company, or agents, have been delug-
ing the Standard with literature pro-
testing against being classed as mining
sharks. One of the letters demand the
publication of several yards of rot,
their defense in the matter. The STAN
dard has at no time characterized the
company as a swindle. 1t has said
some vigorous words about sharks who
trade on the good name of reputable
mining communities. If the Imperial
Corona people choose to wear the shoe,
and the shoe has tacks in it, why, it's
their foot, of course. The company
would better spend its time and money
in developing the mine that it alleges
will pay $SO0,O a year for 2O-stamp
mill, than in seeking an apology here,
for there is more probability of that
yield than of the apology. - -Grangeville

Jumbo and the Cracker Jack mines;
their combined milling capacity was
equal to about one ten stamp mill and
their total bullion yield was one hund-
red and twenty-six thousand dollars.
The five stamp mill at the Cracker
Jack was increased to ten in August
and then shut down November first,
pending the installation of electric
power. The four stamp mill at the
Jumbo was increased to fourteen in
October, and again to twenty-four on
December 25; the last ten are expected
to be in commission by the tenth of
January.
The new mill building at the Jumbo,
built during the year, is of thirty
stamps capacity, and the remaining six
stamps will be put in during the winter
to make it complete. This is one of
the most substantially built and most
conveniently arranged mills in the west,
and contains, besides the stamp and
vanner floors, three drill air compress

Jake Rice i,
Loses Suit

Judge Kennan yesterday ordered en-
try of judgment dismissing the COM
plant of Jacob N. Rice against r. M.
Sherman, the American Eagle Consoli-
dated Gold Mining company and the
Fishhawk Consolidated Gold Mining
company. The action has attracted a
great deal of attention on the part of
mining men since it was commenced a
year ago.
The contention of the plaintiff was
than a copartnership agreement be-
tween Messrs. Rice and Sherman, made
in September, 1898, extended to owner
ship of stock in the two defendent cor
porations and large number of mining
claims in Idaho, which contention the
defendent Sherman denied, alleging the
fact to be that in some of the instances
recited his purchases and interests were
entirely without the partnership agree
ment.
In delivering his opinion. Judge Ken

nan said: "The plaintiff failed to sus-
tain the allegation of general partner
ship and community of interest with
Sherman in the American Eagle Con-
solidated Gold Mining company, and ac-
cordingly judgment will be entered dis
missing the complaint. "
Testimony has been taken in the
court here in Spokane at different times
for period extending over several

York and at several places in Idaho.
The attorneys for the defense are
Graves, e Graves and A. E. Gallagher,
while the interests of the plaintiff have
been in the hands Of Allen & Allen, T.
Waldo Murphy, and F. w. Dewart.

he would appeal from Judge Kennan's
order. Spokesman Review.

NOW IN KANSAS DIVISION.
WelIs.Fargo Express Officials Visit
Ardmore-Chanee Division.

The Wells-Fargo Express Office at
Ardmore, as well as all other express
Offices on the Santa Fe road between
Gainesville and Purcell, are now in
the Kansas division instead of the
southern division as heretofore.
d. r. Mervine Of Kansas City, su-
perintendent of the Kansas division,
and f. II. stephens Of Wichita, route
agent of the southern branch Of the
Kansas division, were in the city yes
terday and made this announcement
to Agent w. E. Ryan of this place
who will make his report to Kansas
City in future instead of Houston, as
heretofore.
Mr.. Meryine was surprised to find
our agent doing the business that he
was for the company, and doing it in
such quarters as ne found here. He
said that he would hurry up the build
ing as contemplated by the officials OF
the southern division, and if il was
going TO be long before the same was
built he was in favor Of renting new
quarters until the new office could be
built.
While there is no change In the
present force contemplated, it is
thought that two more wagons and
also two more men will be put on
soon.
