The Outlook For 1907.


Speaking from a local standpoint,
as well as from a state and natio-
nal, the year 1907 has started off
most propitiously and bids fair for
Owyhee to be one of greater pros
perity than any Of the recently pre-
ceding ones. Our old and reliable
mines, such as the Trade Dollar
Consolidated and the DeLamar give
promise OF keeping up their repu-
tations as steady producers, while
other properties give better promise
than ever before of coming rapidly
to the front and bid fair to become
prominent Esoducers at no distant
day. The Potosi Company has al
ready demonstrated that it has a
great property, almost in the town
Of Silver City, which will justify
the construction of reduction works
and the employment Of large
number of miners. The Banner
Company is making slow but
steady progress in developing its
properties on Florida Mountain
with exceedingly promising pros
poets of making it one of the lead
ing mines in this district.
1t is rumored that work will be
again started on the great Sinker
tunnel enterprise, now only requir-
ing some melh' d OF making an up
raise of few hundred feet to tap
and drain the water from the most
famous string of mines ever worked
here, which, with the water drained
from them, would again become
great producers.
And there are numerous other
properties both on War Eagle and
Florida Mountains upon which
work is being done with splendid
promise, some Of which may any
day show up to be as great proper
ties as any yet developed.
At South Mountain work is now
being vigorously pushed which bids
fair to make that greatly neglected
district take precedent with the
best of he silver-lead districts south
of the Couer d'Alenes.
This promises to be great year
for the mines of Owyhee. At the
present time every miner coming
here finds ready employment, al
better wages than has heretofore
prevailed. When spring opens
many more properties will be call
ing for men.

There are said to be more wild
cats in and around the wonderful
Gold6eld mining district than were
ever bred around any other mining
camp. Happily, or unhappily
these animals exist chiefly on
suckers.

The new year is now nearly
four days old. How many Of the
good resolutions you started this
year with, have you already
broken?

good Judgment, have organized
a club and started third term
campaign for Roosevelt. Presi-
dent Roosevelt has so frequently
and emphatically stated that I'M
der no circumstances will he
again be a candidate that we be-
lieve in taking him at his word.
There is no scarcity Of good pre-
sidential timber in the party to
which he belongs, or of men who
will carry out the many reform
measures he has begun. He has
two years more to work on them
and a congress to back him in
the good work. Let him alone,
and let the people take him at
his word that he will not be a
candidate again. He is young
yet, and there are other fields of
usefulness open to him. Al
though neither great debater
or orator, he might occupy a seat
in the Senate which would make
some of the old fossils now there
sit up and take notice. He might
shine as the president of one of
ours great universities. With him
as manager, the Isthmian canal
would be completed in less than
a lifetime. Let him have his own
way and do not force him to
break the unwritten law which
says no third term for anyone
While we have a Root, a Taft, a
Shaw, or a Fairbanks and an
uncle Joe, old as the latter is, let
us let our best president retire on
the honors already won. To be
sure, the arguments used by the
Third Term Club are all very
good. 1t claims that it will not
be an abrogation of the unwrit-
ten law against a third term be-
cause Roosevelt has only been
elected once. But the arguments
i'll favor of a third term are spe-
cious and cannot be easily gain
said. Here are some of them:
We view with alarm the evils
already grown from the abuse OF
corporate power and see in these
evils a fertile field for the dema-
gogue, from which might readily
spring a political and social revo-
luton, and believe that nothing
short Of temperate and prayerful
solicitude, on the part of the peo-
pie, will hold our political and
social structure intact.
TO the people irrespective ot
party lines is due the credit that
their President, today, is Theo.
dore Roosevelt. A new era o.
real freedom and vitality in oul
institutions OF government anc
politics was demanded, and they
wisely saw in him a means to at
tain it.
So valiantly and wholehearted
ly has this man reflected tn,
wishes of the people, that his per
sonality has entered into and be
come part OF every department
of our national life.
He has won the confidence o
the people; and this fact alone

NEEDMORE NEGROES
Carnegie Says this is Sit
uatiOn at Present.
ROOSEVELT MAKES ADDRESS
He Thinks That Their Handi.
cap Would be Incentive
to Greater Efforts.

Washington, D. c., Nov. 1S.-Presi-
dent Roosevelt, Hon. James Bryce,
Andrew Carnegie delivered addresses
rejecting pronounced optimistic
views as to the future of the negro
race. The occasion was the installa-
tion of the Rev. Wilbur PATTERSON
Thirkeld as the President of the How
ard university and the celebration of
the fortieth anniversary of the found
ing of that institution, which is de.
voted to the higher education of the
negro.
President Roosevelt admitted the
hardShips encountered by the negro
in his efforts towards advancement,
but urged that they be looked on
rather as IA privilege aud stimulating
to greater effort for which the reward
would be equally great. Mr. Bryce
pointed to the development of the
race during the past forty years as be-
inS marvellous compared with the de.
velOpment and advance Of the
AnglO-SaXOn race. 1t was for Car
negie TO awagen unreStrained enthu-
siaSm by his declaration that it was
not now the question, "What shall we
do with the negro" but How can
we get more Of them?"
Carnegie completed his triumphs Of
popularity by showing in conclusion
that the race in America had acquir
ed title to estates in America during
the past forty years larger than Bel
GUM and Holland combined

FEW KNOW THIS
Says Home Treatment
Cures Rheumatism.
TELLS HOW TO MIX THIS.
Shake Well in the Bottle and
Take a Dose After
Meals.

When an eminent authority an
nounced in the Scranton Pa. Times
that he had found new way to treat
that dread American disease, Rheu-
matism, with just common, everyday
drugs found in any drug store, the
physicians were slow indeed to attach
much importance to his claims. This
was only few months ago. To-day
nearly every newspaper in the coun-
try, even the metropolitan dailies, is
announcing it and the splendid results
achieved. 1t is so simple that any
one can prepare it at home at small
cost. 1t is made up as follows: Get
from any good prescription pharmacy
Fluid Extract DandeliOn, one-half
ounce; Compound Kargon, one ounce;
Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla, three
ounces. Mix by shaking in bottle
and take in teaspoonful doses after
each meal and at bedtime. These are
all simple ingredients, making an alb
solutely harmless home remedy at lit
tie cost.
Rheumatism, as every one knows,
is a symptom of deranged kidneys.
1t is a condition produced by the fail
ure Of the kidneys to properly filter
or strain from the blood the uric acid
and other matter which, if not eradi-
Gated, either in the urine or through
the skin pores, remains in the blood,
decomposes and forms about the joints
and muscles, causing the untold suf-
fering and deformity Of rheumatism.
This prescription is said to be
splendid healing, cleansing rnd invig-
Grating tonic to the kidneys, and gives
almost immediate relief in all forms Of
bladder and urinary troubles and
backache. He also warns people in
leading New York paper against
in discriminate use Of many patent
medicines.

A Humorist Who Draws Moral From
Their Silence.
1t Is said that In Korea after q ma
tive woman Is welded she becomes
practically specchless, says Newton
Newkirk in the Boston Post. This is
IN conformity to custom and caste.
A Korean wife does not after MAJ
rage become absolutely mute, but
she does not speak unless necessi-
ty demands it. And, by the way.
if none of us talked any more
than necessity demanded THIS world
would be full of large chunks of ST.
lence. The Korean wife does not chat.
ter like parrakeet Hot air is some
thing In which she does not deal. OF
course. If the house got on fire she
would mention it, or If she were to
step on q snake she wouldn't try to
keep the fact a secret, but she does not
talk over the back fence when she Is
bringing in the wash or converse with
her neighbOr when she is washing the
windows. If she did, she would lose
her caste and her social rating would
slump faster than a copper stock.
Probably many a brutal husband
who reads these lines will sigh and
say. "Ah, that my wife were Il Ko-

IN STRONG POSITION
Is Home Tobacco Now in
Great Britain.
REPORT OF Representative
Very Little Green River To-
baCtO in B -iiain---HUW
il is Manufactured.

George NJ. Taylor, who spent sew
eral weeks in Great Britain as the
representative of the Green River
Equi y Warehouse company, which
is located in greensboro, has return
ed home and expresses the opinion
mat the tobacco shipped by his
company to Liverpool is in strong
position and will shortly be sold,
owing TO The fact that there is very
little Green river, or Owensboro TO-
baco as ii is called in Britain, in
bonded warehouses in that country.
He says thar he was surprises TO find
so little Green river Tobacco in rGeat
Britain.
Speaking of his experience in Eng
land, Mr.. Taylor said, "The tobacco
trade over there is very much inter-
ested in the tobacco growers organi-
cation in this country. Our pur-
poses and intentions are very much
misunderstood, but one thing they
give us credit for-raising the price
They do not like us much because
we have raised the price,but they
have no particular fight against us
as long as they can buy Tobacco from
us as cheap as from anyone else"
Tobacco" continued Mr.. Taylor,
SIS one of the greatest sources Of
government revenues in Great Britain.
AS soon as il arrives from America,
II is placed in bonded warehouses
and the government takes a sample
by which it is sold. There is a duty
of seventy-two cents a pound on TO-
bacco, but this is not paid by the
shipper. When a manufacturer ge.s
ready 10 use a certain shipment OF
tobacco lie pays the duty and takes
il out of the bonded warehouse.
This duty, of course, makes The
manufactured products sell high, and
tobacco is economically used Sin,
the use Or tobacco is very near uni
versal. Most of it is smoked-yery
little chewed.
1T is amusing 10 see an old Eng
lishman smoke his pipe. He empties
the ashes out into the palm of his
hand, puis little fresh tobacco in
the bottom of the bowl, replaces the
ashes on top of it and lights it. In
this way he is enabled to consume
every particle of the tobacco.
Green River tobacco, or greensboro
tobacco as it is called there, is used
for Two purposes. A considerable por'
