NApIAS CREEK PLACER !!
Company Incorporated to Work
These Claims by lmprov-

lhe Napias Placer Mining Com.
paus was formed some weeks ago.
and the incorporation papers were

Messrs. William j. Romjue, Thomas
A. Munro, Samuel r. Cary, James
W. Caples and John II. Padgham are
the incorporators. The company Is
capitalized at $500. 900, and the par
value OF the stock Is 81. 90 per share.
There are few stock companies
which start out under such favorable
auspices. The company owns $40
acres of placer ground along Napias
creek, which has already furnished
the world with an estimated value OF
30 million dollars worth pf placer
gold; by the old methods OF sluicing.
The company starts out without a
dollar OF Indebtedness, aud expect to
sell enough stock among local men t..

ground worked, but 1t Is said that

After this has been accomplished

PROSsER WILL BE
BACK ON JUNE s

Letters received from Deputy Attor
ney General Prosser, who is now on
the Coast, state that he expects to be
back in the city on or about June g.
He remains in San Francisco to rep
resent the Territory of Hawaii in the
United States Circuit Court in the case
of the United States VS.. Registrar of
Conveyances Merriam This case,
which was decided in favor of Merriam
by Judge Dole in the local Federal
Court, has been appealed and will
come up in San Francisco on May %.
The case is one in which Registrar
Merriam refused to record a map with
a Judgment which was filed by the Uni
ted States, giving as his reason that
a law recently passed provided for the
filing of maps separately. A writ of
mandamus was asked for by the United
States to compel him to record the map
but on the hearing of the case was re-
fused by Judge Dole.

of the treasurer, showing that there

borhood of 500 worth of exhibition
coops during the year past and that for
the coming show there would be com
paratively little expense. He also
spoke of the good work which had been
done during the year by Secretary

mittee be appointed to make number
of changes in the bylaws, one of which
should provide for small monthly sal
airy for the secretary.

tions for membership were received

ton.

ing been transacted, w. E. Wall moved

lowed by two more motions of the same
kind referring to the retiring president
and secretary. The meeting then ad-
journed.

THE BALTIMORE ELECTION.

The result Of the municipal election
n Baltimore yesterday shows the
great importance of selecting candi-
dates that are acceptable to the people
men that are true, tried and clean in
their political career. II also shows
the good advantages Of the Crawford
system Of selecting candidates who
aEc the choice Of majority of the peo-
plea system wherein the voter has a
say ia the selecting Of the candidates
and not the political leaders alto
gether.
While the majority is not an over
whelming one or what some of the
leaders anticipated, yet it is highly
gratifying to the rank and Gle of the
Democracy all over the State, and
will have a salutary efTe upon the
counties this fall. and put the party
In good shape for the coming fall
campaign, and make the responsible
ity the greater.
The result is good victory for the
Democrats OF Baltimore, inasmuch rs
their opponents, the Republicans, had
all the advantages ON their side
having possession of the city govern
ment with all it's political machinery,
and being backed by the national
administration with its great power
and influence. In view Of these facts
IL is a great victory for Democracy
and the citizens of Baltimore are to
be congratulated upon the result. The
Democrats of old Anne Arundel send
congratulations TO the Democrats OF
Baltimore ON their noble fight and sue
cess in placing their city once more
i'm the control of Democratic rule.
