EURoPE's JEALOUSY OF AMERICA.
BY Rev. A. B. Hepburn

The one thing that most strongly impresses
itself upon the mind of careful observer in
Europe at the present time is the fact that
the continent of Europe does not like the
United States. They regard us as a bumptious
people, that ought to be spanked into some
sort of decorum, and they would welcome and
rejoice in any international complications, not
involving themselves that would bring us into

The ''smoke farmers" of Salt Lake valley may be handed a good-sized lemon by the smelters they have been bleeding, if all reports are true, as it is stated that the smelters may bring suit against the farmers claiming dis crimination, inasmuch as they have compelled all but one of the valley plants to close down, while the one ex- ception is being allowed to run under conditions which the plants now idle could now comply with. There are 4OS farmers in the combination, and it would be the joke of the season if they were obliged to make good" the damage they have wrought against the smelters. The farmers are idle this winter, for they are not working for the smelters at 3$ per day, but they are selling the damaged (?) pro- duct of their farms, all the same, at high prices.-Salt Lake Mining Re- view.

 Everything looks, most encouraging at the Ancho mineS only few miles from Graniteville. Development work is steadily going on there and Manager Harry Overman is highly pleased with the results so far. Several test runs have been made in; the ten-stamp mill and the ore has in some instances paid better than was anticipated. A raise is being run to connect.the lower tun- n,l with the upper one and in this raise the ledge was. widened to six and one-half feet, the quartz all through being of the paying quality. When spring opens up work will be carried on more extensively than at present, and if things continue to improve as they have, the capacity of the mill will be considerably increased.-Grass Val ley Union.

 J. J. Connolly, who has a lease on the Vanderbilt mine, at Cerbat, was in Kingman the first of the week.

TO DO AWAY WITH
The CLAIM AGENT
Water Board Decides TO Dis
continue lis Part of the
Arrangement

At their meeting yesterday afteroon
the Water Commissioners decided to dis
continue the city claim agent in conncc-
tion with the board after May l. The
action was taken on motion of Mr.. Ford
after the reading Of a report from City
Claim Agent Thomas ]. Bowen Of his
work in connection with the Water De-
partment
The claim agent receives $500 a year
from the water commissioners. Objection
was made to the motion by Mr.. Knox
on the score that it was unwse even If
the agent saved the department the cost
OF only one damage suit in year. The
objection was not sustained by the other
commissioners, however.
The claim agents salary OF 5000 a
year has been shared by the Water
Board, the Street and Sewer Commission
and the Park Commission. Just what ef-
feet the withdrawal Of the Water Board
from the triumvirate will have. remains

Editorial Opinion
Mr.. Houston's View Of II.
Sussex Republican.

Sussex Republican.
II Alice and Layton had been the
wise and farsighted politicians some
believe' them to be, they would not now
be suffering the pangs of defeat, but
would be leading the Republican party
of this State to greater victories. BY
their own political acts, which they
and some people considered so smart,
they have brought themselves to the
position they occupy to-day 1t is the
inevitable result Of the policy Of de-
ception and treachery they have pur-
sued in the past. It should be a lesson
10 them and to all men. Honesty is the
best policy because honesty is right
and right will prevail.
The elimination of bad leadership Is
an evidence Of an awakened conscience
In the Republican party and a desire
for better things, at least we hope so.
Certainly 1t Is an opportunity for the
best men In the Republican party in
this State TO make their influence felt
and a call to duty that every good Re-
publican should not fail to heed. They
should control the parc and not let the
party control them. If they are right
and will stand together for right that
will influence the party to be on the
right side in most Of the issues Of to-
day. To men who feel disappointed at
the defeat of friends and miscarried
plans, we would suggest that your
place and opportunity in the party still
remains and if you have made a place
for yourself and have exerted an in
fluence in the party in the past you
can do so in the future with the same
hope Of recognition and reward which
you entertained IN the past, and re-
member that you, if in the minority,
are only occupying the same place
some others have occupied in the past
and perhaps you may have more SYM
pathy for these same noor fellows you
used to berate and abuse and be more
charitable. Take your medicine like a
man and a good Republican and press
on.
