how wide it is and then you can note
the changes in your ore bodies and in
my Judgment it will give you a good
showing that will warrant you to COM
mence operations from a mining
standpoint; that is go down to the
base of the mountain and start your
working tunnel where you can get
1900 feet of depth, and thus make
your mine and put it on a permanent
paying basis. The mountain being
very steep you can easily get one foot
of depth for every foot of tunnel you
drive.
II noticed that you had fine ore in
three other veins, but would advise
you to confine your operations to your
tunnels and with the splendid mineral
showings you have and with plenty of
timber on the property, water for pow
er and railroad within two miles, that
being the d stance from the town of
Kamiah, 1 think you have property
we'll located and one that can be de-
veloped with the least possible ex-
pense."

Blind stringers of ore have been en-
countered at different places in the
tunnel, which show that there is ore
to be found at depth.
Next to these claims are the Jack
brothers and Bethem properties. They
are now driving cross cut tunnel.
They have a ledge of about Is feet on
the surfce of quartz which shows Dor
onite through it. The Bethem and
Jack claims were not incorporated and
the large amount OF work that has
been done Is due to their own efforts.
Extensive Development Work.
The next group of claims is the
Pittsburg- Idaho. The original owners
were the Laverty brothers. They have
the same surface show.ngs that occur
on most of the other properties, but
have done a great deal of development
work. They have numerous shafts
over the whole property, most of them
showing carbonate of copper carrying
gold and silver. They have one tun-
mel in about 800 feet, which has opened
up good body of ore which is in large
enough quantities to ship. This did

Business Men Are Our Friends. "
Charlotte Observer.

CudFIottC oUScihti'
In the lower house of the Legisla-
ture, when a bill, which took a fall
out of a corporation was under con-
sideration, Mr.. Doughton, of Allie
ghaney, one of the balance wheels OF
that body, said: "The business men
are our friends. 1t behooves us to
move slowly and be conservative in
these things. The business men feel
now that we are proceeding with
harsh measures against every man
that has dollar invested in the
State. / hope they ere not right, but
there is no doubt they think So" We
are pleased to read that these timely
words did not fall upon deaf ears, but
were applauded. Yes. "the business
men are our friends" and they are
found very handy when the hat is
being passed around for contribu-
tions to the campaign fund. flow
campaign expenses would be defray-
ed without them we cannot imagine.
Why, the time was when the prede-
cessor of the despised Southern Rail-
way COmpany-we mention it's name
and state the facts with awe-was
active in Democratic politics in North
Carolina. 1t won the thanks for, and
incurred the odium of, having done
more than any other agency for the
election of Governor Vance in 1876,
and its contribution-that was q
very good many years ago-of Sl5,.
600 to one Democratic campaign
fund was more than all the other
money the committee had for cam.
paign expenses.
The business men, merely as ordi
nary citizens and taxpayers, are en-
titled to living chance Besides, in
campaign times they are useful.

Don't Abolish Second-C Class Fare
and Coaches.
Concord Times.

Concord Times
We cannot for the life of us see
where the demand comes for single
fare on the railroads, doing away
with the sccondclass fare. We see
no newspaper that favors it, and we
have never talked with any individ-
ual who wants this done. 1t is like
much more proposed railroad legis-
latiOn-it is manufactured out of the
whole cloth and the people do not
demand it. Let the second-class fare
remain by all means. On this line
the Catawba News well says in re-
cent issue:
We do not like the idea Of doing away
with the second class fares Some one
may say, treat all alike that one man
should have as good service as another.
We would most heartily agree to this
proposition if all men were men, instead
of some being like human hogs. Some
two legged animals when they start
any where tank up on mean liquor, puke,
curse and swear and are therefore not
men, and decent people should not be
forced to ride with such creatures. What
man wants his wife or daughter to be
forced to travel with such people as we
have described, and yet this is what will
have to be done under the one-class fare
rates.

The Republican Party in North
Carolina.
Marshville Home.

MuTsuF1lle nome.
There may be some who will take
Our Home to task for saying the
Democratic party has no opposition
in this State, but practically speak
ing it is true. The Republican party
is SO small that it isn't worth men,
tioning. If you take out the chasers
after Federal appointments and
their families there wouldn't be
enough OF it left to conduct a funeral.
And there is no prospect for it to
become any larger - not until it
changes it's leadership. So long as it
is.controlled by the element that has
controlled it for half century it will
remain nothing but a contemplate,
Observation-Disclosures with nothing
in its leadership to attract men of
character and honesty OF purpose.
While there are some good men in
office il the Republican party, there
are so many office holders who do
not command the respect and conf
dence of the people, that it drives
away those who might otherwise be
attracted by the party.
In making appointments to the
various offices the Republican admin
istation does not consult the wishes
of the people to be served, but in
nearly every instance the appoint
ments are dictated by some ''boss"
local Republican politician who does
not want his party to get any big
ger. At least he doesn't want any
influential recruits that would have
a tendency to displace him from
leadership. Under such a state OF
affairs the Republican party is as
big as it will ever be in this State,
and even as it is, it is bigger than it
deserves to be.

Aycock's Life Insurance Tax Bill.
Wilmingto on Messenger.

The recent Legislature, or rather |
the Speaker OF the House aud some
of his followers seem to have gone
wild on the subject OF crippling rail-
roads and other corporations and of
taxation. All their rabid talk and
violent action has been clothed with
the pretense of protecting the people
and relieving them OF alleged unjust
burdens The insurance companies
have come in for large share of
this style OF proposed legislation.
Bills have been introduced and dis
cussed which claim to have for their
object the cheapening ofinsurance to
the people, yet the Senator from
Wayne has introduced q bill which
will add to the cost Of every policy
OF life insurance over and above that
which the companies impose. In the
greed for more subjects to tax, the
poor man is lost sight of for the time
being and under the terms Ex-senator
Aycock's bill he will have to pay a
tax on the life insurance policy he is
scuffling to keep up in order that he
may be able to leave some provision
for his wife and children after his
death. This Legislature, which is so
anxious to protect the dear people
against the rapacity ofthe insurance
companies, is asked to put an addi-
tional burden on the men who
through these companies are trying
toprovide a support for their fami-
lies, after the time when wife and
children no longer have their brain
or hands to labor for their support.
Mr.. Aycock wants to burden life in
surance with a tax to State and
county, thus increasing the cost OF
insurance to every man who holds u
policy. If this bill should pass it
would make man pay tax on prop
erty which he does not possess and
which under the very nature OF the
subject of taxation, he can never pos
sess. SO long as he lives he will be
forced to pay an annual tax on prop
erty which will not come into exist
ence until after his death. 1t is an
annual tax through the period OF his
life upon property which will come to
his wife and children at some uncer-
tain time in the future. Could any
tax be more unjust or unreasonable?

Raleigh Times

Raleigh Times
When the Legislature undertakes to
force morality and sobriety down
the throat of citizen by the pas
sage of laws it faces a situation
which is grave for the party which
the Legislature represents and proves
at the same time that it's members
are totally unfit to deal with ques-
tions OF such far-reaching magnitude.
The very nature of Mr.. Burton's bill
demands that it be killed. This
measure provides that it shall be a
crime for u man to get drunk, no
matter how peaceful he might be,
and no matter if he becomes intoxi-
Gated in his own home and remains
there until the effects OF his strong
drink have worn away. 1t is an at
tempt to infringe upon the rights of
an individual, and moreover it can
have no good effect. Mr.. Burton,
we are sure, was conscientious in be-
lieving that it would be beneficial.
He possibly viewed the matter from
one side only; when he feels the senti-
ment, therefore, he ought not to in
sist upon its passage.
The most offensive person in the
world is the drunkard. Liquor
drinking is the most abominable
habit OF all. But we cannot hope to
put it under the ban by law. Even
those of us who we're never known to
be drunk resent this sort of legis-
lation, while the drinking army will
snap its finger in the face of the law
and defy it. There are too many
laws on the statutes today that can
never be enforced because of their
assinine qualities and provisions.
When it is known that the proposed
law can have no good effect, when
all must realize that it will be dead
letter one, what is the use to deal
with it seriously? Already there is
an impression that the Democratic
party OF North Caroliua has gone
crazy; already there is a menace.
And when the party gives undoubted
evidence that the charge is true we
cannot blame good men when they
desert. But aside from politics, the
thing is so absurd that it must meet
defeat, and the temperance forces
should be the first to urge that it be
killed. Better drunken community
than a law which proves that those
who make it are utterly ignorant OF
human nature and absolutely un-
familiar with the cause Of sobriety.
