Encouraged by the results he is OBJ.
tanning in the operation of his recently
acquired lease on the property, Philip
.0'Mara, Of Salt Lake City, Utah,
backed by q coterie of capitalists and
mining men of that city, completed ne.
gotiations Thursday with the Kavan-
augh and Embry Brothers, of Vernon,
for the purchase of the Boilermaker
group of claims, near Vernon. 1t is
understood that the bond calls for
100000, and a substantial sum was paid
down. The payments, it is further
learned, extend over several months.
1t was only recently that Mr.. O'Mara
took a lease on the property, taking
hold of the ground that was formerly
held under lease and operated for a
time prior to the financial furry by the
Seven Troughs Piute Mining company.
That company sunk an incline shaft to
a depth of around 20 feet and opened
up a quartz ledge which gives excep-
tionally fine paintings. In starting op-
erations, Mr.. O'Mara made a thor
ough investigation of the shaft and
determined to continue it down. 1t
now has a depth of about a hundred
feet and a crosscut is being run at that
depth.
Strike on the Big Dipper
The latest strike on the Big Dipper
property, a mile northeast of Vernon,
has developed such a remarkable show
ing that mining and leasing operations
in the neal vicinity on an extensive
scale will result within a very short
time. Fully eight inches of shipping
ore and a vast body of milling ore have
been exposed in an open cut scarcely
six feet deep and it is the unanimous
opinion of the visitors who have re-
Gently focked to the scene of the dis

Many a mine superintendent has been puzzled at
times by the behavior Of the ore body he was mining
and has felt that a better knowledge of ore deposition
would be Of immense value to him. But he is a busy
man. and does not have time to sit down for long hours
and peruse some large and cumbersome text book.
What he wants is a book like THE Origin of Ore
Deposits" with a flexible linen cover. which he can put
in his coat pocket and carry everywhere.
A book Of "a pages only, which tells him In the
simplest and plainest language. all he wants to know
without burdening him, with unnecessary details.
The author of the book. Mr.. Etienne A. Ritter, 10
a mining engineer Of great repute and one Of the high
est recognized authorities on mining geology. He has
written a clear. comprehensive book, which goes right

force before December l, If the people
had voted for Bryan and approved of
the Denver platform.
The attempt to get an estimate of
the number of workers thus affected
was made as logical sequence to its
effort to obtain accurate information
on present trade conditions and future
possibilities for business. The tele-
grams asked manufacturers to state
specifically how many workingmen
would be added to their force by De-
cember /, if nothing occurred to snake
commercial confidence.
The percentage of replies received
show that at least one-half of the 5000
members of the National Association
OF Manufacturers expect to add to
their present force more than 100000
workingmen. Taking that as basis,
1t is safe to assume that the $4,000
manufacturers which, according to the
census of 1900, employed an average
OF 100 men or over, will add at least
90 per cent in their present force, max
ing total in round figures of 1000.

decision of the primary election in a
splendid spirit which augurs we'll for

which Immediately preceded the gen.

1T is concerned that the will of the
voters has been expressed, and that
there is no need Of attempting to go
back of the returns from over the

Doth sides won a victory during the

Mr.. kennedy's Political MANAGER

Burlington Saturday Evening Post:
Mr.. j. G. Scott of Montrose was the
manager of Congressman Kennedy's
campaign. Mr.. Scott is the editor Of
the Montrose Journal and has nat
ural bent for politics. His work in
behalf of Mr.. Kennedy stamps him
as being man who must be taken
into account hereafter In estimating
the probabilities and the possibilities
of First district politics. Mr. Scott
had the campaign we'll in hand from
the beginning, and there never was
day from the time of the nomina-
tons that he didn't have his opponent
beaten. Mr.. Kennedy has been A.
useful member, steadily growing into
larger stature in influence and pres.
tige down at Washington. His prog.
ress has been steadily into the es.
TEEN OF the people Of his district. A
good manager was all that he needed

The report of Labor Commissioner
Brigham, recently submitted to Gov.
ernor Cummtns, shows a lot of i'm
portant facts to confirm the
claims and arguments OF the Repub.
lican party in Iowa and disprove the
political claim of the Democrats
throughout the state. Not only are
more men being employed in the state
in factory and trade positions, but the
salary which is being paid, the daily
wage given, indicates that an Increase
Of from 10 to 20 per cent is being
shown in practically all industries.
The showing which is made in the
report is considered the best in recent
years. According to a review Of it in
the columns of the Des Moines CapitaI
ii effeetually refutes the false assar-
tons which have been made to the
effect that the bottom had fallen out
of the full dinner pail In fact the
dinner pail is taller, broader and has
a stronger bail on it this year than
ever before.

Building construction is now making
new high records. The ig cities show
marked increase in operations,
whereas few months ago they were
falling behind. During October per-
mits were taken out in thirty-six cities
for the construction of 1892 buildings,
according to official reports to Con-
struction News. involving a total esti-
mated cost of $43.074,775 against
9,157, aggregating 31,736,S55 fer the
corresponding month a year ago, a
gain of 635 buildings and s11 ,337, 800,

feature of the present situation is the
fact that the larger cities have recov.
cred entirely from the depression
which was so marked in several in.
stances, notably the east, and are now

be expected in normal condition of

of his home town-for the same un-

corner of the district. Mr.. Scott is

Burlington Hawk-Eye: Chairman
J. G. Scott OF the First Iowa district
Republican central committee, is to
be congratulated on the result Of the
congressional campaign, which result
ed in the reelection Of C. A. Ken.
nedy by largely increased plurality
over the vote OF two years ago. Mr..
Scott Is a resident of Montrose, Iowa,
and warm personal friend of Mr.,
Kennedy. His heart was in the re.
election of the congressman, and he
left nothing undone, and no stone I'M
turned to accomplish the result. The
fact that for six months Mr.. Scott has
been practically bed-ridden and has
conducted the campaign almost en-
tirely by typewriter and telephone
from his sick couch, indicates the
skill and intelligence with which he
laid out his plans and followed them
up. That is the kind of campaign
work that will win almost any cleo
ton contest. and Chairman Scott Is
deserving of full credit in his district.
He had one of the most bitter and
unfair opposition to contend with, and
for sick man did wonders. Had he
been in good health the opposition
might still be digging their way up
out of the avalanche.

DR.. Landone, who plans to improve
the human race by Burbank's plant
theories in the rearing of children, in
a recent interview dwelt on the value
of cultivating love and cheerfulness
and good thoughts toward mankind.
For" he said the body is a sub
stance composed of chemicals and
these chemicals are at the mercy of
the emotions. Anger, hatred and sor-
row poison the fluids of the body,
while love, cheerfulness and happi-
ness serve as eliminators of emotive
and fatigue poisons. Pleasure stimu-
lates, that's why when we are tired
and worn an evening of gay .ancing
to music will remove all signs of
fatigue and one will sleep better and
be more rested than if one were to
attempt to sleep fatigue off,

Outing Magazine suggests that ma
ture drops the leaves on the grass fur
the purpose of protecting the grass
from the severity of winter, and there
fore they ought not to be removed.
The same view is urged by Editor
Wheeler OF the Quincy Journal, who
is an authority on trees and every
thing pertaining to them But Keo-
kuk citizen who tried the experiment
has abandoned it. He found that
many of the leayes-certain kinds of
leaves at least,-did not decay
promptly and tended to kill the grass
they covered. There are two sides to
the question, it appears, and the Out
ing's advice is not to be followed re-
gardless of conditions and circum-
stances.
