FoREcAsTING A MILLING ERA

Goldfed will never realize its greatest development until it gets down to
than to any other mining camp OF COURSE while values smear the surface continue
to run into picture figures, little attention will be paid to the milling question;
but the time viii come and perhaps before a great while, according to present in
dcahons, when study must be given to the milling processes best adapted to the
ores of this region. While much high grade rock is being produced, enormous
bodies of milling ore ranging from $50 to 500 are being opened up and left in
the nines to await the coming of the milling era
Cripple Greek was nee a high grade camp and nearly its entire production
ran above $3.50 20 the ton Within the past few years, however, the average
grade has fallen to slightly below the $50 mark, and still the total cash output of
100000 per month. This resut has been brought about by the inroduc-
ton IF efficient processes which treat pre- at a vey low cost Mosto of the ore of
the Creek has been treated vt custom mills, located either in the district or at
Colorado Springs or Florence, and largely at the latter W places But several of
the larger mines are nov preparing to inshnm mills of their W The Findley is
M of these mines, and in the last annual statement If the company the follow
ing significant statement was made:
SIN arriving at this decision, !" i e., to install its owl mill, Consideration
was given to the fact that transportation and treatment charges OF III ore last
year were $18223389, or $3.50 per ton.'
Eight dollar and twenty cents would appear to be pretty cheap b ut this
includes transportation charges to Colorado Springs The report further says:
1T is the opinion of your directors that within two years, ores will be treated
by mills located right at the mines at not " $3.50 per TOM
The enormous possibilities opened UP to Goldfeld when processes similar to
those in Cripple Creek are adopted for this camp, are beyond the most vivid
imagination 1t means millions a year for generations, and a community here of
many times its present population.
The milling err, is scarce dawning, yet several of Our mines, notably the
Combination, are treating their W ores. This mine is milling ores running as
low al SO; and the time will come when a lesser grade car be prohtably handled.
And what the Combination is doing others will do and in a few years it is ra-
gonabe to predict that GOldfeld viii be a camp of many mines of many mills

We, the Democrats of Custer

do hereby reaffirm our allegiance
to the time honored principles of
Democracy, as expressed by JEFF

We unqualifiedly endorse our
nominee for the United States
Senate, Hon. Fred T. Dubois,
and approve his determined
stand for American citizenship.
We hereby announce our hear
ty allegiance to the State Demo
cratic platform, and the candi-
dates nominated thereon.
We favor a revision of taxa
tion, to the end that each piece
of property in the county shall
pay it's honest proportion of the

business for other corporations
shall be compelled to assume the
responsibility, in the matter of
taxation, in proportion to the
amount of benefits derived from
the business done in the State.
We favor the Direct Primary
;the Employers Liability Act
and the Eight Hour law.
We denounce the administra-
ton of Gov. Gooding in it's ex-
travagance, and condemn the
Gooding Borah Re p u b / i n
machine in its desire to obtain
an Office at the expense of a prin-
ciple.
Respectfully submitted,

WHO THEY ARE.

Never before have the Demo
Gratis of Custer county presented
Tor the suf7rages of the electors
so worthy ticket in its entirety
as the one nominated at Challis
on Sept. 28th. Every candidate
on that ticket is worthy of the
support of his full party strength
and this being so there is not
the slightest reason why every
one should not receive it.
SENATOR MACBETH.
Ravenel Macbeth, the Demo
cratic nominee for State Sena-
tor, has served two terms in the
Idaho Senate from Custer coun.
ty, and il considered as one the
most active members in that
body. He has done more to de-
velop the mining idustry in Gus
ter county than any other man.
AS to his knowledge of the needs
of the county and ability to carry
them out he has no superiors in
the county and very few, if any,
equals. He is a credit to our
county in the Senate, and per
son that the people can point tc
with pride. Mr., Macbeth is d
resident of Custer, and has made
this county his home for the pas
ten years, and is deserving ths
consideration of every voter il
Custer county. Elect Senator
Macbeth and we all know tina
the county viii be represented il
the upper branch of the legisla
ture by an active man. His rec
ord in the past has proven this
and why swap horses in TIL
middle of the stream ?"

ablest lawyers in Idaho. Two
years ago Mr.. Clark was the
Democratic nominee for Justice
of the Supreme Court of Idaho.
He is man of marked ability,
and if elected, will be an honor
and a credit to Custer county in
the Legislature.
COURT HENDERSON.
Democratic nominee for Clerk of
District Court is resident of
Mackay, where he is employed
as book keeper in the Lost River
Commercial Cos. store. He is a
sober and Industrious man; a
good penman, and in fact every
way qualified to fill this respon-
ible position. The voters will
never regret having cast their
ballots for him. He is the right
man for the right place-honest,
capable and active, and we know
our people will take these facts
into consideration when they go
TO the polls on the 9th day of
next November. Mr.. Henderson
has been resident of the county
for the past four or five years,
and is a married man with
family of a wife and two child
rem.
ROBERT MORRISON,
is the Democratic nominee of
Custer county for Sheriff. He
is resident of Challis, and is a
pioneer in the county. At the
present is a mail contractor. He
is we'll known in the county, and
is a man we'll qualified to fill this
position sober and Industrious,
and If elected he will make an
officer of the law that the county
will be proud of, for he is an
upright and honest man. The
voters of the county will make
no mistake when they vote for
Bob" Morrison for sheriff.
RUDE H. EWING,
of Houston, is q rancher and a
tax payer, and is thoroughly
qualified to fill the Office of As
SCISSOR and Collector. He is lit
tie known in this part of the
county, although he has been a
resident of the Big Lost river
country for the past 10 or 20
years, and all who know him
speak of him as man of sterling
character and ability. He did
not seek the office, but his many
friends urged him TO accept the
nomination. He is we'll inform
ed as to the valuation Of proper
ty in the county and would make
an ideal Assessor.
MELVIN M. SWEET,
of Challis, the Democratic nom
inee for Treasurer, is a tax pay
err and came to Custer county in
1885, and is owner of this paper.
| All we have to say is that if cleo
ted Treasurer, we will endeavor
to fill the office to the best of our
ability.
JESSE G. FINNELL,
Democratic nominee for Probate
Judge, is a resident of Challis, a
taxpayer and an old-timer in
the county. He has filed the
position of Probate Judge in the
past in such satisfactory and
honest manner that his party
gave him the denomination. He
needs no introduction by us. The
people know that he is honest
and capable, and this should be
the only recommend that any
officer should need. We have nc
fear as to the results on election
day.
MISS MARTHA KEENAN,,
of Mackay, Democratic nominee
for Superintendent of Public
Instruction, is at the present
principal of the Mackay High
School. She is a lady who il
every respect is well qualified tt

Ger vote for w. j. Lamme.
JOSEPH L. EBBERTS,

CcT NOtc lOT W. u. I@duiulS.
JOSEPH L. EBBERTS,
is the Democratic nominee for
the office of Coroner, and is a
resident of this city, where he is
occupied as barber and ranch
err. He is a taxpayer and an
old-timer in this part of the
county. He has held this Office
before and made a good officer,
and there is no reason why he
would not fill this office this
time with equal ability if elect
ed. So vote for Joe.
VALENTINE MAELZER,
of Pahsamaroi, has been placed
in nomination on the Democratic
ticket for Surveyor. He is a
man who if elected can qualify.
The nominee for this Office is a
rancher and school teacher, and
also q taxpayer. He is a young
man of excellent education, and
is qualified to fill any Office in
the county.
COUNTY COMMISSIONERS.
With the County Commission
ers rests the affairs of the coun-
ty, and should have business
men to fill the of6ce-men who
are honest and upright;men who
are not controlled by any one
person or clique; men who will
guard the county's welfare as
sacredly as they do their own.
The Democratic party of Custer
county have this year placed
in nomination such Board.
JOHN M. PUSHAw,
of Challis creek, has been placed
in nomination for Commissioners
of District No. /, and no better
man could have been found for
the Office. He is a quiet and un-
assuming man, honest and up
right in his business dealings
with the world. He has no one
to dictate his actions, and is a
free man in every sense of the
word; a moral, sober and indus
trious man of middle-age; a
rancher and tax payer. A vote
for John M. Pushaw is a vote
for q good man.
ROBERT CAMPBELL,
Democratic nominee for Comis-
sioner from District No. 2, is
a business man from Clayton,
and a heavy taxpayer. He has
been a resident of the county for
many years, and everyone knows
him to be an honorable and up
right business of marked ability.
All who know Bob" Campbell
know that if he is elected that
he will be Commissioner, and no
one else will dictate his official
acts. He is not an Office seeker,
for he could held Office in this
county any time he desired, but
always refused, but this time ac-
cepted a nomination at the earn
est solicitation of his friends.
At an early time in the county,
however, he represented this
county in the Idaho Senate, and
made one of the very best Sena-
tors Custer county ever had.
Mr.. Campbell is familiar with
every interest in the county and
we know of no one better quail
fed for the Office.
JOHN H. GREENE,
of Mackay, has at last accepted
the nomination on the Demo
cratic ticket for Commissioner OF
District No. 3. He could of haG
any nomination in the county al
any time, but refused, and al
this time it took a lot of urging
from the people before he would
accept. Mr.. j. III. Greene needs
no introduction for he is known
from one end of the county tt
the other. He is at the head O.

PRINTERS TIE-UP FEARED.
Over Action CT Allied Trades Council
in Chicago.

CHICAGO. July PA complete tie-up
OF the printing establishments of members
of the Chicago Typothetae may follow ae-
tion which has been taken by the Allied
Printing Trades Councils to assist the print
ers in their fight for an eight-hour day.
The plans are being kept secret.
A committee of one from each of the five
international unions affiliated with the
council has been appointed with full power
to act. Ii is said the stereotypers, photo
engravers and bookbinders already have
tried to get the sanction of their respective
national officers to go strike In aid OF
the printers on terms proposed by the lat
ter. The printers have offered to pay the
strike benefits of all workmen called out
In sympathy with them.
The attitude OF the printing pressmen has
kept the other unions from engaging in
the strike up to this time. The pressmen
are under a five-year agreement with the
employers which does not expire until next
May.
The agreement was made between the
International Union and the United Ty-
pothetae of America, and local union here
was never in sympathy with It's terms, al
though 1t has lived up to the contract until
this time. The refusal of the United Ty-
pothetae at its convention In Buffalo, which
adjourned yesterday, TO consider the de-
mands OF the pressmen for an eight-hour
day. on the expiration of their contract will
the local officers say, result In forcing the
pressmen to take sides with the printers.

NEW ORLEANS, July PIE. ]. Mathse,
men, women and children who left Mexico
because of anti-foreign threats and passed
through New Orleans late last night en-
route to Cincinnati, said
"One of the most alarming features of
the cituation is the fact that the Mexican

THE anti-foreign movement is strongest
in the northern and central portion of
Mexico, where the natives have been
wrought up to high pitch of excite

border the movement Is not so strong be-
cause the Mexicans fear the Texans, who
know how to shoot.

Other members of the party include men

DID NOT STOP TO USE THE GATE.
Six Bulldogs Put Illinois 0uardsmen
to Flight

CHICAGO July 21.-Six ferocious bull
dogs which guard the home OF Banker John
Farson at Oak Park last night won blood
less battle from ten members of Company
D, 9th Infantry, 1. N. G.. who were sent
by Capt. Hayden to arrest Eugene Smith.
a chauffeur employed by Farson, and who
is member of Company d, which last
night left for its annual encampment at
Springfield.
Early In the evening when Smith did
not report at the companys quarters Capt.
Hayden OF Company d detailed four men,
bers of the company to search the Farson
home and arrest Smith. Accompanied by
his wife. son and the chauffeur. John Far
son entered the garage and attempted to
drive the soldiers from the place. The lat
ter, despite protests from the Farson fam
lily, attempted to seize Smith. Mr. Farson
ran to large kennel and released the dogs.
AS the dogs approached them, the men lost
their nerve and sprang over the high wall
without taking time to unlock the gate.
Later Capt. Hayden visited Mr.. Farson's s
home and explanations followed which re-
suited in Smith being allowed to remain at
the Farson home undisturbed.
