LOOKING BACKWARD.

Telluride Journal.
Twenty years ago the only mine OF
any moment operating in the Tellu-
ride district was the Sheridan. now
one OF the Smuggler-Union group II
gave employment to about 20 men.
the product being shipped TO Denver
and Pueblo or packed down the hill on
burros and ireighted by wagon to
Montrose, the total transportation
costing about $50 per ton. During the
fail months oil 1853 the price of silver
slumped from sl0i per ounce TO 81
cents.
1t was the custom in those days to
make NJ ore shipments during the
winter the means OF getting in and
out OF the basin for three or four
months being on snow shoes only
The mines had no pay day during
the winter from the time the shipping
season closed until it reopeued in the
spring.
The going wages were 81 per day.
After the November pay day the last
until the following spring, Manager
Waters of the Sheridan, notified his
10 $3.50 day, but assuring them that
should the price OF silver be restored
before the opening OF the shipping
season, SO that he could market the
winters product at 80 cents an ounce
or better, he would allow them 81 per
day for the winIer, but il he sold at
less than 80 cents they were to
receive $3.50 per day.
The men struck. The Journal
under the same editorship then as
today, sought to point out TO the men
the mistake of their course. The
snow was deep and growing deeper:
most of the men were broke and the
only possible show for winter employ
ment was at the Sheridan. They were
assured OF good home, plenty OF
good grub and $3.50 a day for the
winter and probably 81, for every one
confidently expected silver TO go back
to dollar in few weeks. But they
declined The Journals counsel, or
dere1 the journal editor to leave
camp and organized to carry out their
orders, He didn't go; the mine re-
sumed; silver advanced TO about "a
cents before spring and the men re-
ceiyed 81 per day for the winters
work
That winter, twenty years ago to-
night. the ladies' of Telluride gave a
leap year party in the room now occu-
pied by Downey's news stand. About
O'Clock in the morning as the Jour
nal editor was going home with his
escort, he was sat upon from behind
in the darkness at Van Atlas corner
and slugged behind the ear by four
worthless characters known as the
"hoodlum glng." 1t mattered not 10
them what mines worked or what the
wages were, as they rarely, If ever,

BRYAN ON CONVENTION.
Former Leader Says Parker's Nomi.
nation Was Secured by Crooked
Methods.

Methods.
10 the statement given out by W. J..
Bryan since the st. Louis convention Mr..
Bryan says: The New York platform
was vague and meaningless and purpose
ly 50 because the advocates Of Judge
Parker were trying to secure votes from
among the people who would have op.
posed his views had they known him. II
he had sent to the Albany convention the
telegram that he sent to the ". Louis
convention he would have had very few
instructed delegates from the south and
no possible chance for the nomination.
But be and bis managers adroitly and
purposely concealed his position until the
delegates had been corraled and the nom.
nation assured. Then bis friends at.
tempted to secure a gold plank, which
was overwhelmingly defeated 10 the
committee. After the party had rejoiced
over the harmony secured by the omls.
sion Of the question, and after he had
secured tho nomination he injected his
views upon the subject at II time when he
could not be taken from the ticket with
out great Generalization, The nomlua.
tion was secured, therefore, by crooked
and indefenslble methods.

HAIL DAMAGES WHEAT
Bad Strip Of Hail in Sundays Storm
Was Very Destructive.


The storm on last Sunday evening
which was light at Dodge City brought
tremendous rainfall In the Southeast
portion Of the county, d small twister
south of town aud bad hailstorm in
Fairview township and some territory
west Of that. The twister did damage at
a few places, principally to windmills
and haystacks. A large granary and
wagon shed on Mic Mayrath's place were
torn down and two buggles were smashed
up. A header which was left in gear In
the wheat field was slid across the field
by the wind and did a pretty good job Of
wheat cutting without the assistance Of
men and teams, and 1t is said that a
header barge made an ascension alight-
Ing bottom side down on the top Of a tall
stack.
Att. D. Browns place the roof Of the
barn started toward the house bnt was
moved only a short distance. Lumber
from the barn came rolling and tumblIng
and when about half way to the house
tho boards shot upward as though
charge of powder had been placed under
them.
The main damage done was by the hail
and rain to crops. Where the path Of
the heavy hail, wind and rain passed the
damage amounted to almost a total loss,
and some places the destruction was COM
plete. Among the unfortunate ones 10
Ford county are G. G. Mitchell, Harrall
Brothers, 5, G. Rhodes, Hays Belmear,
Joe Kinks, Charles Pfleiger, Philip
Reinert, G. B. Throne, j. D, Brown, E.

On Egyptian soldiers and wnr:-The
profession of arms was IN great rep0te
among The Egyptians. After the sacer-
d0tal families the most illnstrious, as
with us, were those devoted to a military
life Thsv were not only distinguished
BY honors but also by ample liberalitios.
Every soldier WAS allowed twelve Aronra,
that Is, piece OF arabic land very near
answering to half Il French mere, exempt
from all tax or tribute. Besides this
privilege, each soldier received daily
allowance Of five pounds Of bread, two
Of flesh and quart Of wine. This al
lowance WAS sufficient to support part Of
their family. Such an indulgence made
them more affectonate to The person Of
their prince and The interests OF their
country, and more resolute in the defense
Of both and as DlodOrus observes 1t was
though! inconsistent with good policy,
and even common sense, to commit the
defense Of country to men whv had no
interest In its preservation. 100000 SOL
diers were kept in continual pay. They
were Injured to the fatlgues Of war by
severe and rigorous education. There
was an art Of forming the body as well
as the mind. Military laws were easily
preserved in Egypt, because sons received
them from their fathers; the profession
Of war, as all Others, being transmitted
from father to son. The world could not
show better llorsemen. The Scripture in
several places speaks adysntageously of
