THE question of establishing Con-
federate home is still being agitated.
The argument is that there are a num-
Der of Confederate veterans in this
state who are no longer able to make
a living and that it is a shame to send
them to the poor house. 1t is noted
also that all those who talk Confed-
crate home are bent on its location in
Columbia. AS to whether there is any
real necessity for the establishment of
such a home we are doubtful. We
think that INDECENT veterans would
like il much better to be taken care
Of at their own homes. of If they have
no homes, among the surroundings
where the greater portion of their lives
has been spent But if it is decided
that the home be established, why
should it follow that it must go to Co.
lumbia? Wouldn't it be bette to give
it to the county that furnished most
soldiers to the Confederacy. Really. we
see no need why everything of this
kind should go to Columbia.

TEXAS COTTON CROP.

Dear Sir and Bro: The cotton crop
Of Texas will be between As and so per
cent of the usual yield. This estimate
l., based upon reports from 4,S00 local
unions of the state. and is not car
window guess. Farmers Union mem
bers are holding at least 20 per cent
of their cotton. We should be glad
that you would favor us with a copy

THERE Is a good deal Of matter OF
course talk in the market reviews
about the movement of cotton being
retarded because of a scarcity of cur
rency There is plenty Of currency In
this section to move all the cotton that
is willing to move at current prices;
but according to our view the trouble
is not due so much to the scarcity or
currency as it is to the absence Of
fifteen cents.

Looks Good.

Reports from Custer say that
a three and one-half foot ledge
of rich ore was struck in the
Montana Tunnel, which is being
run at great depth under the
management of ]. A. Czizek, to
explore the Montana mine on
Estes Mountain, in the Yankee
Fork district.
This strike was made one day
last week in the Hidden Treas
ure, a claim adjoining the Mon
tana mine, and was encountered
while driving the Montana tun-
mel through the Hidden Treasure
ground. A few samples of ore
from the new strike have been
lreceived in Challis, while no
assays have been reported, yet
to any one familiar with ores, it
is plain to them that this ore
will give high values in gold. It
is similar in character to the
ores produced in early days in
the famous old Montana mine.
+ IF this strike proves as it now in
dicates, it shows that the mines
of that district go down, for this
ore was found at great depth.
1t disapproves the theory that
the mines of that district are
only surface deposits. If the
new discovery is as good as it
now indicates, it is one of the
most important strikes ever made
in the county.
| Mr.. Czizek is deserving for
his untiring energy. This big
tunnel he started more than two
years ago, and he is backed in
the big enterprise by August
Heinze, the well known Butte
capitalist, we are told, who has
a bond on these mines. The
owners of the Montana group
are all Custer county pioneers.
