RAILROAD DAY is NEAR
Rapid Construction Work This
Week-Train on Mob Hill
Causes Rejoicing.

The splendid weather Of the week has
enabled the large force on the Ruby
Hill Railroad to make good progress
and q mile and q half Of road was COM
pleted this week. The road is now in
running order to b-yond the powder
house. a distance If two aud a hall
miles. Engineer Quincy informs the
SENTINEL that at the present rate of con-
~struction IL no storms interfere with
the work the road vii be completed to
the Eureka Consolidated dumps and
ready to deliver machinery and supplies
there by the first Of January. He says
it VIII require two months to complete
the road from the Eureka Con. to the
Richmond dumps.
AT both these mines the preliminary
or make-ready work is going on as
rapidly as possible. being retarded
somewhat on account Of the difficulty
in getting timbers, lumber and
materials on the ground.
Head Carpenter Rand and his crew
have had bad luck moving the Ruby
Hill school house, made necessary by
the changes in the route Of the railroad.
On account OF b snow it was a diff
cult matter to get good settings tor the
blocks and many delays were en-
countered by the snow giving way.
During the week the building has been
moved only 300 feet, one-half Of the
contemplated distance. Everything
seems to be moving all right now and it
Is thought there will be no further
trouble. 1t will, however, require
several days to complete the work and
repair the building, and the Ruby Hill
school will not reopen until after the
holiday vacation.
The Richmond Eureka Company is
dismantling the Eureka Con. furnace
works in Eureka and the work is near.
ing completion. 1t is thought that a
great deal OF the timber, lumber and
other material can be utilized on some
Of the other work the Company has
planned.
The people who have had faith in
Eureka's revival and stayed with the
camp are realizing their fondest hopes.
Day by day they have watched the
steam.horse again climbing the heights
until now it half-circles the town aud
is lost to view.
Doesn't it make you feel good to
again see the tram up on Mob Hill"
one asks another. Feel good? Well
l should say So" is the rejoiner. That's
the s~ituation-the sight Of the train
again crossing Eureka's streets and the
sound of the chu-chu have got every
body to feeling good and the new year
will be ushered in bearing the banner.

Cage Drops to Seventh Level.

The hosting engine at the Richmond
shaft on Ruby Hill was started up
Tuesday afternoon after lying idle for
some time, and while making a trial
run Of the cage it was dropped down
the shaft. The shaft was cleared of
men and timbers while the engine and
running of the cage were being tried
and tested, aud no one was injured
when the accident occurred. In run
ming up the cage 1t was hoisted high
enough to release the automatic hook
on the cable and the cage dropped to
the seventh level, where the shaft is
caved. Every precaution will be used
to prevsnt any such accident when in
active operation.

Delinquent Tax List.

The list Of delinquent taxes on the
first installment tor 1904 appears in
this issue Of the SENTINEL uuder New
To-Day." The list is larger than it has
been in Eureka County for several
Years on account of the many patented
mines that have been assessed to ''un-
known owners" The law taxing
patented mines became effective this
year, and while the names Of the own
ers OF many patented mines were
known to the County Assessor. many
more names were not available. Other
than the patented mining property, the
delinquent taxes in Eureka County this
year is very small.

years 1903 and 1904. So rapid is the
growth Of this immense industry that
the products of 1904 were AZ per cent
greater than the total Of $1,000, 600, ,OOC
reported by the census for 1900 Secre-
tary Wilson further asserts that the
bank deposits in the agricultural states
are growing faster than in the manulac-
turing states. Thus from June 30 1896
to October 81, 1904, while the increase
for the entire country was 81 per cent
itself proof Of astonishing national
prosperity--the gain in bank deposits in
Iowa was lG4 per cent, in Kansas 2lS
per cent and in Mississippi 3Ol per cent.
In view of this advance one is not sur.
prised to learn that the average month
" wages paid farm laborers throughout
the country increased from $l797 in
1885 to $22. II in 1902, the last year for
which the data have been completed
They are undoubtedly higher today.
Turning to specific crops, Mr.. Hewes
analyzes the growth in these from 1850
to 1900, pointing out the influences OF
growing population and manufactures
of railway development, government sci
entific work in improving seed and the
other factors that mould the agricultur-
al output. There is room here merely
to quote his summary for the greater
food crops: Corn increased from jJ2,-
100000 bushels in 1850 to 2,030, 600 600
in 1900. (1he corn crop was approx
mately $500, 900 last year, The
same half century saw the oats crnI
grow from l47 100000 bushels to Sll,-
600, ,000, 900 bushels. The wheat yield
increased from lO0,0O0,000 bushels to
632, 100000 bushels. The production OF
potatoes increased from $1,000, 600 BUSH
els to 273,000,0 900 bushels. Barley rose
from 5000 900 to IS, 100000 bushels.

The magic that turks in the apparent.

Special to the Glacier.
Portland, July %. The Custer mas
sare, which marks the greatest Indian
outrage of recent times, will be repro
duced with wonderful fidelity to detail
at the Lewis and Clark exposition on
Thursday, August 49, when Umatillo
Indians and soldiers Of the Oregon
National Guard and the Tenth United
States Infantry will take part. The
massacre promises to prove the most
interesting aud instructive Of the big
| free outdoor attractions which have
been provided by the exposition man
agement for the patrons of the western
worlds fair.
1t was % years ago, on June %, 1876,
that Custer and his troopers rode into
the death trap on the Little Big Horn
river. Shortly after crossing the river,
hundreds of Sioux attacked the little
band, which resisted heroicaly, making
last stand in hand-to-hand contest
in which every trooper was killed. The
survivor of the dreadful massacre was Il
trumpeter whom Custer had sent, early
in the fray, to Major Reno for rein
forcements.
The reproduction at the Lewis aud
Clark exposition will have for its loca-
ton plot Of ground on the government
peninsula in Guilds Lake, near the riv.
or entrance to the fair The lay Of the
ground at this place is similar to the
geography of the Little Big Horn, and
this circumstance will add much to the
interest of the bloodess massacre. In
dians from the Umatila reservation,
garbed in the war clothes of the plains,
will form the attacking party, and the
attack will be maintained by them un.
