EAGLE DISTRICT DIVIDED.
Miners Meet and Create the Reagan
District by Segregation.

Ely, New, July 12.-Eben P. Low is in
from the Mother Lode mine in the Eagle
mining district and brings the information
that the miners of that district recently
held a meeting and decided to divide the
mining locality. They named the new dis
trict, which comprises about half of the
old one, the Reagan district. The re-
mainder of the locality will bear the
same name as before-the Eagle mining
district. Mr.. Low was chairman of the
convention of miners and although he de-
clined the honor they would not permit
him to withdraw from the position. There
were tWenty-eight miners at the meeting
and some of the delegates held the proxies
OF many others who lived too far away
to come. As there was a good representa-
ton present it was decided not to con-
slider the proxies. NJ. A. Morris was elect
ed auditor of the district.
Mr.. Low has been superintendi the
work at his property since April 23 In
discussing the outlook with a Herald rep
resentative last night, he said:
our property is gold, silver and lead
proposition and we have had a large force
of men at work there for some time. We
have been piling up our ore preparatory
to milling it. The ore, 1 think, will run
very high and If ii continues to come
up to the present standard we will erect
a mill next spring. We intend to put up
large mill and have great faith in the
property. The district is lively, indeed,
and while 1 was there 1 was really sur
prised at the number of prospectors that
are working over that country. During
the last two days l was at my camp four
prospectors stopped at my place and asked
me how thoroughly the country had been
prospected.
Il have tWenty-eight claims. William
Burke has some excellent. copper claims
located about thirty miles across the val
ley l have been informed he has one of
the best properties in the district The
prospects are certainly fine and he is most
confident as to the results
Mr.. Low arrived from Honolulu about
three months ago. He went to Los An
geles, Cal, during the Shriners' conclave
and returned after spending a month
there. He is greatly impressed with Ely
and the prospects here and speaks well
for the entire country. He will leave for
the islands on October next.

Fooled I'm All.

Richardson, said the Secretary,
was great supporter Of Lincoln
while the latter was President and
Richardson in congress, and at that
time he told me frequently that he
was certain that while slavery would
be abolished, the owners would receive
compensation for their emancipated
slaves, and that Lincoln would favor
1t; wouldn't in fact, consent to any
thing short Of it. had different

tion proclamation came out, | was at
banquet in Washington. Richard
son was seated four removes from me
at the table. At one point leaned
back and, talking behind the inter
vening guests, asked Richardson
whether he had gained any new beliefs
on the subject Of how Lincoln stood
on the question OF paying for the
slaves.
YES, retorted Richardson, I've
got new impression on the point.
I'm beginning to entertain doubts.
This Is what has shaken me. | was
up to the White House this morning
to see Lincoln; saw him and talked
about this very subject Of paying the
planters for their slaves Lincoln
talked in very general, but still
very encouraging way. | felt sure he
took my view of the matter.
"After long pow-wow, in which |
seemed to have my way, and Lincoln,
without promising any definite thing
still appeared to perfectly agree with
me, / came away. 4 was smiling to
myself il was the smile OF a man with
whom the President agrees. II you
had asked me your question at that
moment, | would have told you that
Lincoln would pay for the niggers.
But just at that crisis remember
ed that as | climbed the stairs to see
Lincoln, | had met Sumner coming
away, 1t struck me, too, that he toe,
was smiling just as | was. 1t sent a
chill over me, and l began to doubt.
I've been wondering ever since If
Simmer didn't have a better founda-
tion for hif smile than | had, and |
have about concluded that he did.
There's no room on this subject of
paying for the slaves for both Sum
