Advices from Denver indicate the pur-
pose of the Republican party to steal
the Centennial state and perpetuate
Peabody in power, says the Reno Jour-
nal.
While the throwing out Of certain pre-
cincts in the city of Denver was patient
ly endured as among the justitiable po-
litical possibilities of that state, the
trihing technicality upon which the
voice of various Democratic communi-
ties is stifed, brands the purpose of the
Republican party as Il criminal one.
1t is estimated by the Republicans
that Peabody will have a plurality OF
1000 votes by the time the eliminating
processes of the supreme court shall
have matured.
On the face OF things a more high
banded outrage was never attempted in
the political history of the republic than
that which is deliberately robbing the
Democracy of the Centennial state of a
victory it achieved at the polls.

As Seen Through Glasses Of Mining
Review Editor.

At this writing everything indicates
that Goldfield, the new Nevada camp, is
destined to develop into one of the great
est gold and silver producing sections of
the world. Indeed, it is even now pre-
dicted by experienced mining men that
it will not be long before it will outrival
the great Comstock lode, also in south
western Nevada, and which, for many
years, was looked upon as the most won
derful mineral belt ever discovered, says
the Salt Lake Mining Review.
1t is now scarcely more than a year
since the first tnds ut Goldheld were
made; and yet, during this brief period,
great mines have been developed there;
companies have been formed, and les
sees have made thousands, even mill
ions; companies have declared big div
idends; and, as if by magic, u thriving.
growing and throbbing town has sprung
up on the barren wastes OF the desert,
with its business houses, newspaper,
water works, telephone service and

freely predicted that the coming season
will lind Il lull-grown city there, which
will be possessed Of every modern i'm
provement, including direct railroad ia
c~ilities.
AS the mines and prospects vi the
Goldtield region are developed and ope-
rated, the extent and magnitude of their
mineral wealth continue to increase
until the most sanguine is surprised, the
experienced miner Is astonished, and the
mining world stands amazed; for nothing
like Goldiield has ever been found, in
ledge mining, for a century or more, and
it seems hardly possible that a greater
camp will ever be found.
Such is the impression at the present
time, the result being that the stampede
to Goldtield and vicinity, AS soo as
warm weather sets III, will be some
thing to marvel at, for, where great
wealth exists, to this point will flock
people from every point Of the com lass
and from foreign chimes, and where great
mineral lodes are found, there big money
is to be made and fortunes are to he
amassed, either in the actual operation
of mining properties OF in business, in
trade, the practice of a profession, and
in investment and speculation.
Gold is the magnet that attracts all
mankind, and here 1t is found in almost
unlimited quantities, and SO large and
permanent seems the deposit Of the pre-
clous metal at Goldheld and vicinity
that it looks 10 the observant outsider
and that it is u most glorious one.

World Of Truth in This.

The Stockton Mail, in writing upon
the freight rate evil and the possible
effect of the Hearst bill, comments as
follows:
1.-The Mail is not informed as to the
propriety of the details of MIR. Hearst's
bill, but in its general principles it is a
measure urgently demanded by present
conditions. Ii we are to have the In
terstate Commission at all it should be
given power to regulate transportation
charges with such effectiveness that
the interests of the people will be fully
protected. Competition in r%ailroading
seems to be a thing of the past. Unless
some power intervenes to protect the
people the principle Of "all the traffic
will bear" will take from us the lions
share of the money paid for the pro-
ducts of our fields and factories.
cat the present time, when the COM
mission condemns a certain rate, the
case il taken into the Federal courts,
and after it has been delayed by the
numerous methods known to the law, q
decision is rendered, probably after the
original parties to the action have died
or forgotten all about it. Then the

trifing alteration in the rate and thus

A Warm Ice Story.

While shoveling gravel from Il pit at
Black Butte mountain, five miles above
Sisson, Cal, Southern Pacific workmen
have discovered a vast underground sea
of ice that il believed to have been
formed in prehistoric times, says IN ex-
change. The Black Butte mountain is
a great source of supply Of ballast for
the railroad company. The ice was dis
covered after a vast quantity OF gravel
had been removed from the mountain.
The ice is said to be of a good grade, and
appears to be almost one solid mass.

Chamberlain's Cough Remedy thu
Best Made.

SIN my opinion Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy is the best made for colds"
says Mrs. Cora Walker OF Porterville,
California. There is no doubt about it's
being the best. No other will ure a
cold 80 quickly. No other is so sure a
preventive of pneumonia. No other
is 80 pleasant and safe to take. These
are good reasons why it should be pre-
ferred to any other. The fact is that
few people are satisfied with any other
after having once used this remedy.

to make the homeward trip by rail.
1t CHANGED that Rear Admiral VIII
lard II. Brownson was to assemble his
armored cruiser division at Key West
for practice cruise about tue time of
Mr. Roosevelt's New Orleans visit. The
admiral was therefore ordered to pro-
ceed to New Orleans with his flagship,
the West Virginia, and take the presi.
dent on board upon the conclusion of
his stay in the Crescent City 1t was
known that Mr.. Roosevelt had long
been desirous of testing the efficiency
of the new armored cruisers, SO it was
decided that when the West Virginia
reached Key West on her return from
New Orleans long distance race be-
tween the different vessels OF the
squadron should begin and that this
should be made a part of the regular
drill of the feet.
Rear Admiral Brownsons command
includes the West Virginia, Pennsyl-

the fastest and best equipped vessels
