1t is reliably reported that Captain
j. r. DeLamar, so we'll known
throughout the west because of bis
extensive and successful ,minlng op-
erations, and particularly in Idaho
where he formerly owned the great
DeLamar mines at DeLamar, in
Owyhee county, and for whom that
town was named, has secured bond
and option on group of claims in
the Funeral Mountains, Tuyo county.
California, eighty miles from Jo-
hannesburg. The option price is
$3.50, 600, of which cash payment
of $40, 1000 has been made. The
surface showing on this property is
said to be immense, and this must
have been the case, as an eight foot
prospect hole comprised all the work
done in its development at the time
1t passed into the Captains hands.
The first examination was made by
Martin Heller, and the final inspec-
ton by Hartwig a. Cohen.

the freight cars on the railroad
track. 1t was one of the through

CHEAP HELP MEANS EXPENSIVE
FAILURE.

1t would be the worst kind of folly
to claim that every mining enterprise
in this western country has proven
successful and remunerative. As q
matter of fact, to make. such an as
sertlon would be more than foolish,
for the one making such statement
would be guilty, also, of telling a
falsehood. For the sake of argu.
ment the sensible man Is willing to
admit that many failures in mining
are yearly recorded, but if he is an
experienced mining man, he will also
state that the majority of these fail
ures are caused by inexperience,
gross ignorance, and the tendency Of
many mining companies to practice
false economy, the worst feature of
which is the dispensing of the serv-
ices of competent superintendent
or manager because he demands
good wages for, his services. and the
placing in authority, in his stead, of
common miner who is willing to fill
the position OF superintendent or
manager at the wages of common
miner.
ibis form of economy is a clear
case OF Saving at the spigot with
waste at the bunghole, and it's prac-
tce has resulted disastriously to
more than one company operating in
this western country, whose principal
stockholders and officials are eastern
men who are almost totally ignorant
OF mining and of mining affairs.
A young man, in the east, may be
thoroughly responsible, he may be a
good clerk in a grocery store, good
bank cashier or teller, a good &C
countant or good salesman, and yet
he would be total failure as mine
superintendent; and yet young men
of this character, with no mining ex.
perience whatever are often sent to
the west to take charge of mining

have a 'puli' or because they can

would demand. Between the COM

THE DEMOCRATS AND MCBRIDE.

The Herald prints a cock and bull
story this week to the effect that the
democrats intend to nominate Gov.
Mcbride. Either the Herald is ex-
tremelv credulous or else it is trying to
impose on its readers. Yakima Democrat
The Herald, brother, is not "extreme.
ly credulous" and it never imposes on
its readers. The "cock and bull story
was taken from the Mount Vernon
Argus, published in the governors home
town, and was credited to that news
paper. But it is natural that the DEM
ocrat should make wry face at the
prospect of having to support Mcbride,
whom the republicans will very likely
repudiate. And it would also be natural
for the democratic party to take up a
"dead one" for its candidate. 1t has no
chance to win in this state in any event,
and it might as well go down with Nc
Bride as anyone else.

Taking Lessons Not All.

There Is a great deal more to learn. a
great deal more knowledge to acquire.
than can be learned or acquired by les
son-taking. however diligently you may
apply yourselves to the deriving from
the lessons that you receive all the bene-
fit which they may impart. And YOU
must take yourselves in hand: your
teachers cannot, in limited time. stock
Your mind with all needful musical
knowledge; you must try to compass
so much about the progress and devel-
opment of the art as shall enable you to
understand whereabouts you and we all
now are in that evolution. You should.
as planists, for instance, understand so
much about the successive stages in the
development of your instrument and its
precursors as to trace the expansion of
the music written for such keyed instru-
ments. from the older forms of partita
and suite to the modern sonata: and the
reasons for certain forms of passage.
and certain kinds of ornament or apre.
mems. This will have its influence. or
should have, upon your performance, in
showing you that any attempt to impart
the largeness of modern pianoforte mu-
sic to the older music by adding octaves,
iilling up harmonies, and so forth. is an
anachronism, an historical and artistic
mistake, associated with the vulgar CON
ception that a work cannot be great

COUNTRY BANDS.
And Why They Do Not Succeed.


1t is well known fact that very few
country bands attain too much excel
lency. 1t is generally inferred. from this
lack of attainment. that they are in
competent on account of not possessing
musical talent, or else on account of not
having Il competent leader. This is in
deed sometimes the case, as it is also
in cities. but this i the exception rather
than the rule. But the main ANA fire.
qucnt reasons are these, in severaltv;
First. the remuneration for services.
Second irregularty of rehearsals and
practice. Third. the non attendance of
II part of the members generally at each
practice or band meeting: the practices
are seldom attended by all of the mem
bers.
As to remuneration. there are but few
occasions when band is needed in
small towns and it takes more money to
defray the bands general expensvs by
far than they receive for services.
Secondly, as TO the irregularity of
practices. the members i'll small towns
are, as II general thing, tradesmen and
people who labor out of town, and for
other causes they cannot attend. And
if they are at home and feel tired or
wish to 90 to a show or IL dance. they
do not feel that attendance i, compul-
sorry because of no remuneration. But
there are always II few of the faithful
whose heart and soul j. in the work
and these members will invariably be
in attendance, even at an Inconvenience
and these will generally be found to keep
their part well up. 1t matters not how
competent leader or band master NAV
be. or how much he desires to advance
the band, it is not only impossible to
expect Il standard of merit. but it is also
very discouraging to the leader. \ good
leader will always be on hand at the
appointments. but when he finds only
portion Of the members present he is
compelled to practice over the old pieces.
or II he puts up something new those
who are absent will be found at the
next meeting to be jumbling and fumb.
ling along through lack of practice. The
leader is unable to prevent thi. because
ne cannot enforce strict discipline in
an organization that is not receiving
remuneration. and also because in small
towns it is often hard to find members
to take their places. Therefore the lead
er Is powerless and consequently the
low standard of country bands. +. A. T.
