Why Print Criticisms

while President Cobb wal in the
district a few weeks ago he happened
to be standing in the hotel at Sara
toga when a native came in and be-
gan to blow off. 1t was when the
smelter had shut down for IA few DAYS
and this fellow had heard of it.
"Well," he said, "the smelter has shut
down for the winter in spite of the
big talk those people put up" Mr..
Cobb turned to him and said very
quietly, 81 don't know who you are,
but | do know that it's just such liars
as o that are injuring this country
in the eyes of the outside world. "
And the gentleman took a sneak
Encampment Herald
We wonder who this native" could
have been! Perhaps it is an actual
fact that some one was foolish enough
to have made such remarks, but his
sentiments are not shared by the peo-
pie OF this place and they repudiate
both the man and his remarks. Sar.
atoga people know very well, indeed,
that but for the Penn. Wyoming Cop
per company they would not have IA
railroad, but would still be spending
weary hours in making the most I'M
comfortable trip to the railroad. And
the Sun feels warranted in saying
that every reputable citizen of Sara
toga is interested in aud earnestly
desires the success of the smelter and
all the mining interests tributary to
Encampment, knowing full well that
their success means the success of
Saratoga Naturally their is some
jealousy between the people of the
two towns and there always will be
jealousy. 1t is in the very nature of
things that there should be rivalry
and rivalry begets ambition to excel
aud ambition to excel is what carries
the world forward. But the Sun
does not believe that such things
should find their way into print.
They are not calculated to promote
the best OF feeling between towns.

The house of the future will be
made of concrete. While people will,
for many years to come, build houses
of lumber, brick and stone, we are
gradually coming to the point when
concrete is going to supercede almost
every other kind of material. Houses
can be built of this material more
cheaply than of lumber or brick and
they are not only more comfortable,
but they can be made of an almost
infinite variety of styles of architec-
ture. And, by the way, Saratoga is
soon to have a concrete plant. Speed
the day when we shall see hundreds
of concrete houses in this city.

In a time of financial disturb ance
like the present it is indeed comfort
ing to have a man in the White
House, like President Roosevelt, who
knows what he wants to do and and
is not afraid to do it. The people
look to him with confidence to solve
the problem of the hour and his plan
of placing 100000 600 bonds on the
market will have the effect of drawing
the currency, now being boarded, out
into circulation again. AT such "A
lime as this President Cleveland sat
back in his chair and told the coun-

radically wrong about democratic
financial ideas, and the country
seems to prosper only under repub-
lican rule. This statement is made
not by reasons of bias or political
prejudice, but because it is "A con

New County Bridge.

Chairman T. r. Smith has just
completed a contract with the Car
bon Timber Co. for a bridge across
the Encampment river at Riverside.
The new bridge will be built close
beside the present one on the up
stream side, and will be a foot wider
than the old affair. 1t will be sup
ported by piling and SO constructed
as to make it very unlikely there will
eve be any danger of it's going

Irrigation Canal.

j. W, Hays, the engineer in charge
of the irrigation canal, is at present
working near the Tilton ranch with
headquarters at that place. Mr.
Hays Ifs preparinf a most complete
and voluminous report on the situa-
ton, which report will be submitted
to those owning the water and segre-
CATION interests. That this report is
a mere form and for future use rather
than to determine present action is
plain from the fact that Mr.. Hays has
plans laid for work reaching into the
future a good distance, showing that
there is no question about the build
ing of the big ditch.-Encampment

There are some kinds of argument
that will reach almost everyone, no
matter how stubborn and set they
may be in their Judgment. Some
will yield readily tie reason, for they
desire the simple truth. Others have

1t has long been a matter of con-
tention between the editor of the Sun
and his better half as to whether he
was a poet or not. He has laid claim
to a large share of the divine af1ia-
tus, but his wife has turned up her
nose and called his poetical illusions
"rubbish." OF course we know well
that we are not to be classed with
Whittier or James Barton Adams,
but we know that our productions
have merit and we intend to take the
public into our confidence and print
a verse for them to pass judgement
on. Here it is:
Wedding bells are In the air,
The stork Is on the wing
It's going to snow, | do declare,
AS sure as anything.
In the first place you will note that
the rhyme is complete, 'air" and
declare, and swing" and ''anything.'
1t is always important for poetry tc
rhyme. Then the DEF is clear and
distinct-about the wedding bells
and the stork, and all that. There
is no ambiguity about it. We do not
see how anyone can mistake that
verse for anything hut just what it is
intended tor-poetry. And yet our
better half will just rave when she
sees this in print. And that is not
all; she may take it out on us. In
that case we will either have to SLEEP
i'll the barn or apologize and promise
not to do so again.

With every mine and lease in camp
Temporarily closed down, 1t Is difficult
TO obtain a story of new developments
but the nearest approach is to relate the
splendid outlook of the Little Florence,
one of Robinson & Vickers' leases on the
Red King claim of the Florence estate.
Appearing like supply of flour for
army corps is the great stack of white
canvas sacks laden with high grade that
fianks the dump on the property. This
is in addition to twenty tons sent sew
eral days ago to the Nevada Goldfeld
Reduction works for storage. This ship
ment has rot yet been sampled, but 1t
is the general opinion that 1t will run
in the neighborhood of a dollar a pound.
Several armed guards are keeping
vigil over the ore stored at this mine
awaiting shipment. The dump will be
sorted at once and a large output is
assured without another pound of rock
coming from the shaft.
ARRANGEMENTS are being made to work
the lower grade and sample the higher
grade from this mine as soon as the
reduction works resume operations,
which will doubtless be within the next
week. Foundation for bins will be laid
at once and the bins constructed, so
that the ore may be segregated as 1T
comes from the mine.
The compressor is now on the ground.
1t has a capacity of eight drills and
it will be put in position at once, the
owners expecting that it will be in oper-
alton in six or seven days The present
equipment will be superseded by the
entire Hayes & Monnette outfit, which
brought four million dollars to the sur
face in a brief space of time. This
equipment is rapidly being installed.
Lumber is also on the ground for timber
ing slopes and building ore chutes. The
present equipment of the property is
capable of hoisting 500 pounds of ore
every two and one-half minutes, but
this is not enough to satisfy the owners
of the lease, who will make improve
ments as rapidly as possible to facili-
tate the bringing of ore to the surface.
A winze will be begun as soon as
the miners return to work. 1t Will be
sunk an additional hundred feet on the
ore body and an upraise will be run from
the 220 level Meantime drifts will be
run north and south from the point
where the ledge was cut. 1t there

tion of work. The Mohawk Daisy Mo-
