In 1901 Mr.. Tudor examined the
mine. 1t is situated on wyndham
bay, about sixty miles south of Juneau
He spent four months examining the
mine, and it was after this examina-
ton that he bought $4,000 worth of
stock. He went back to Boston very
enthusiastic over the property. ] had
always told him that we had a ledge
running from five TO seven feet wide
but that the mineralized zone was i62
feet wide. He told his friends in Bos-
ton that the ledge was 1s2 feet wide,
and that it was without doubt the
richest mine in Alaska.
Tudor was a large stockholder By
this time, and he became impatient at
what he termed our conservatism. We
were running a ten-stamp min. and he
said 10O-stamp mill was required in
mine SO promising, He secured an
option on forty stamp mill. and when
the directors refused to buy 1t he got
mad about it.
The mine did not pay dividends, the
stock became drug on the market de-
spite the persistent booming of Tudor
and the bottom fell out of the market

sBOOMED STOCK AND NOW
WANTS HIS MONEY BACK
Allegations of Broker Who Says
He Was Duped Does not Worry
His Former Associates.

Seattle, Feb. 5.--William NJ. Elmer.
president of the wyndham Bay Gold
Mining Company. says he is not worry
ing over the suit brought against him
by William Tudor, Of Boston. in which
the latter. alleges that he was induced
to invest sT1,7s5.5o in mining stock
which has proven valueless. At the
Lincoln last night Mr.. Elmer said:
1 never sold Mfr. Tudor share of
stock in my life. Mr.. Tudor is min
ing expert and broker in Boston, and
he inquired of me concerning the mine
when l was in Boston in 1900. told
him frankly that we had small mine
and were working it on a conservative
basis. I told him I was one of the
Iocators of the mine, and had great
faith in it. We had put in mill that
fall, but had been able to work only
three days, and told him the ore was
running about 5000 to the ton.
Mr.. Tudor seemed to take kindly to
the mine. and inquired of the other
directors of the company, who live in
Boston, concerning it. The upshot was
that he bought block of 10000 shares
Of stock at 81. so a share, and without
any apparent cause he began to boom
the stock among his friends.
His reputation as a mining engineer
made it easy for him to do this, and
he sold the entire block at prices rang
ng from s5 to Sc. He made a nice little
cleanup on his investment and then
he got crazy after the stock, picking
up shares when he could and getting
options on other holdings. He con-
tinued to boom the stock until he had
it selling at one time as high as $12
a share. l did not think we had done
sufficient development work at that

TWELVE YEARS AGO AND NOW.

II any Democrat is inclined to be
pessimistic, he may be encouraged by
letting his mind run back a dozen years.
Democratic prospects are much better
now than they were in 1892. Then
as is we'll known. there was a bitter
fight against Cleveland. The politi-
clans were fighting him because of his
answering and uncompromising firm
ness and independence. Many of the
best Democrats in the Party-men who
believed in him and liked him. thought
1t would be dangerous to nominate him,
and that he could not be elected. Some
of his most implacable enemies were
Democrats, as were some of his most
timorous friends.
1t should also be remembered that
in 1892 Populism was at the height of
its power. Weaver received over one
million votes and had twenty-five cleo
toral votes. He received a large vote
in all the sure Democratic States. as
well as in some of the States now
ed nothing. Cleveland had the people
behind him, just as Parker now has. He
swept the country, getting 277 cleo
toral votes. to las for Harrison-almost
doubling the Republican candidate.
Something like the same conditions
exist this year. but the prospects are
decidedly better. The Populist Party
is an apparently Insignificant factor.
The Republicans are not as we'll salts
fed with Roosevelt as they were with
Harrison. The conservative element
of that Party is afraid of him. They
are not afraid of Parker. as they were
not afraid of Cleveland. The differ
ences among Democrats have been so
far compromised that they will sup
port the ticket loyalty, from present
indications. The ticket and the plat
from are winning ones and we feel as
sured of success. Let doubling cease
and confidence reign. and we've got

A KINDLY INVITATION.

Issues come and go and come again.
If any one had said in 1896 that the
tariff would be the issue in 1904. the
average man would have laughed at
him. Yet here the old singed cat is
back again under the kitchen stove.
And just so the seeming corpse of 16
to l may be galvanized into life four
or eight years hence. AS for the Vir-
and get In the frame of mind to Guilt
vate political philosophy.-Norfolk
Firginian-Pilot.
1t is true that "the cat came back"
for 1t was not killed, even If it was
somewhat singed. 1t was only slight
Iy disabled, and is as ready for service
as ever. 1t Is quite different with the
16-to-1 business. 1t is as dead as
Cain, and no one of sound mind wants
to resurrect 1t. A galvanized corpse
will never more lead Democracy to
certain destruction, even IL there could
be a Democrat found who would under
take to waste time galvanizing 1t. We
know that MIR Bryan is limiting with
more or less acrimony and POSITIVELY
that he may go into the resuscitation
sticks to that threat, he will be a more
thorough corpse than his free-silver
heresy is. In spirit of brotherly
kindness we advise our moon-struck
contemporary to clear the cobwebs
from its brain and see things as they
are instead of looking forward and
hoping for the impossible.
But that julep invitation is diff
ferent proposition. We have heard
that the Virginia julep is next to the
Kentucky product If not actually
superior We think we could send a
representative there who would en-
velope as many of them as any vir-
ginia editor can do. Possibly after
a close acquaintance with them we
might not care a continental for poll
teal or any other kind of philosophy.
But that pleasure is for the future.
