CROWN KING co.
Result of Annual Meeting of Stock
 holders in New York.

At a meeting of the stockholders of the Crown King Mines company, held recently, in New York city, the follow ing board of directors was elected for the ensuing year, says the Journal Miner:
 Louis J. Link. Edwin T. Gillespie, pr. William s. Apple. John w. Cor nell, all of Philadelphia; J. Lester Me York; James Kershaw of Fall River. Mass; and Samuel Mclean of Syra- cuse, N. Y.
 In the election of John W Cornell. who is a leading contractor of Phila- delphia, the board was considerabl strengthened in a financial way, and it is the intention, later. to add another wealthy and leading business man of the Quaker city to it.
 Immediately after the adjournment of the meeting the board met and elect ed the following officers: Louis J. Link, president; J. Lester Mclean, vice-pTesident; Edwin T. Gillespie. treasurer; and George F. Shurtleff. secretary.
 Largely through the influence of the new president, who is also president of the American Preserve company, and one of the old and leading business men of Philadelphia, a pretentious de- velOpment fund has already been sub scTibed, placing the company on a sound financial basis and in shape to execute the extensive plan of develop ment work which has been already agreed upon by the directors.

HITE GOLD MINES co.
It Will Be Producing Bullion Before
 Long.

The Hite Gold Mining company's property consists of four cIaims-the King solomon. Queen of Sheba, Vashti and Queen Esther. and the Owl Spring millsite. says the News-H Herald. The camp is situated nine and one-haIf miles northeast of Wickenburg on a gentle slope of the mountain, has good, comfortable buildings for the housing or the employees and a good dining room. It has splendid water facilities and is situated on a good mountain road.
 Shaft No. is down 800 feet and ever 1000 feet of drifting has been done. Siaft No. is 100 feet in depth. Tn all the drifts at different levels fine ore has been exposed, and on th= lO0 foot level at the end of a drift 500 feet long 6 faet of exceptionally foe ore has been enc Cuntered. There is ore in the bot tom of the shaft, but owing % water ktus is rendered dificI.r. However. when pumping facilities are completed the company will continue to go down. Tn all of the claims are good veins of ore.
 They have done more work in less time than any other company that has operated in this section for some time and have demonstrated the fact that all that is needed here is to go down after it. for the ore veins are strong, contain values and are better as depth is attained.

Under the easy rule of Vice President
Fairbanks the senate has .drifted into
a somewhat leisurely way of doing bus
mess and as a consequence the digni-

other day. Mr.. Fairbanks was absent
and Senator Frye was in the chair.
His rulings, as in former days, are con-
siderably more prompt than those of
the vice president At one time a vote
on an amendment was put so suddenly
that senators who wanted to speak were
left standing open-mouthed and nom

Ibsen's death succeeded in approach
ing him in worthiness. While charac-
tiers in Ibsen's plays may not always
have appealed to American audiences,
the question has never risen among the
studious followers of the dramatic art
of the faithfulness of Ibsen's pictures
and the fine touch he achieved in true
effect. Many of his productions were
likened in the sense of human docu-
ments to the master works of Shake
speare.
He was a man of great thought and
fine intellect, one whose influence will
be more and more felt as the years go
by and the universe realizes that all

Mr. Buck won on the very things that
had been planned against him. He
asked no more than the recognition of
a private, who, though only a private
had seen fight and had been faithful to
the Grand Army since the union forces
were disbanded and he asked that the
great common body of the veterans be
not moved by the political wire pulling
of the Chicago contingent. He asked
no more than fair show, and with his
loyal band of supporters that went
from Rock Island county, he won.
And SO Private Buck, elevated be-
cause he laid claims to being no more
than a private. suddenly became a
colonel, and thus he ranks today in
the Grand Army of the Republic. and
in command of the department of Illi-
nois
He deserves the recognition and his
friends truly rejoice with him.

The Primary Law.

In signing the primary bill, Governor
Deneen accompanies his action with q
statement which embraces much infor-
nation concerning the effort to lift
Illinois politics out of the mire.
The governor admits the bill is not
ideal, but contends that it is a com
promise. is long step in advance and
does not deserve the criticism it has
received.
Governor Deneen may be right. The
bill does not meet the wishes of the peo-
pie, who demanded a direct and simple
primary law, but it is, as the governor
says, "a long step in advance" 1t gives
more than the people demanded two
years ago. Indeeu. a primary bill sub
mitted by Governor Yates and which
recognized the direct vote principle,
never came from the pigeon hole in
which it was jammed. That was be-
cause there was no sentiment behind
it at that time. But the recent who're
sale charges of corruption and the fact
that corporations were using large
sums to control elections, awOke the
people and the demand for primaries
resulted.
That we have a primary election law
on the statute books is more than "a
step in advance" 1t is a recognition
of the fact that the people intend to
purify the political system. Governor
Deneen was quick to recognize the
trend of the times and was true to
himself and the people when he urged
the legislature to enlarge the power of
the voters. The bill may have its
shortcomings but it points to fairer
elections and purer politics.
