THERE is anxiety for the safety
Of Kent county at the next election
and the men who brought about
the present conditions are working
hard to patch up truce and smooth
over the trouble by pacifcation;
which is to take the form of recog-
milton and nomination on the coun-
ty ticket, in return for their earnest
support during the campaign. AT
ter throwing down the old organi-
zation and unhorsing the old lead
ers, it has been found that the new
is not strong enough
to carry the party to success, and
now a willingness TO do almost
to save the county from
passing from Republican control
is manifested. Without the tenth
district, Milford, the Republicans
cannot carry the county and recog-
nizing the fact, anything that the
tenth district leaders may ask, will |
be granted in return for their ear
nest support of the ticket. Two
years ago its claims were disregard
ed and its candidates practically
gnored-but now, reconizing that
lefeat by overwhelming majority
must follow fthe tenth is disregard
ID, Justice will be accorded them.
This is a very unsatisfactory way to
politics and bears the
tamp of a novice, but it is a fact
ust the same.

THE Levy Court of Kent county
is between hawk and buzzard in
the reported grating of the treasury
by county officials. It has made a
star chamber investigation of the
facts, and from the course persued,
il appears as if the members, or a
majority of them are afraid Of what
they have uncovered. On one
hand the people are demanding the
facts, as they have a perfect right,
while on their other hand stands
the political manager anxious to
save the friends or creatures of his
creation from exposure and punish
ment, and claiming that it will ruin
the party to push the matter at Just
this time. This is all a mistake.
It is the duty of the levy court to
punish any rascal or set of men
who have conived to rob the treas
ury-which is simply the taxes the
people have paid in for the county
support. By exposing and enforc-
ing restitution to the people, the
Republican party will strengthen
itself with the people at the polls, |
while shielding the guilty, if such
there be, the party will be made
party to the crime, and Justly cen
for it. The course hereto
fore persued by the member of the
levy court from Milford, Mr.. Car
mean, has.met with approval of the
people who believe in honest poll
les, and we certainly voice the
Teat majority of the people of the
ounty, when we demand that the
utility be brought to justice, for
be benefit of the honest republic s
ans of Kent county and the state.
ny other course is condoning the c
cts, and makes all guilty alike. a

THE price of wheat has been
climbing for several days, and now
the quotations from the city mar
kets indicate that before summer
closes wheat will reach if not pass
the dollar mark. This is encour-
aging to the farmer who has been
bemoaning the fact that the yield
was but little better than three
fourths of crop. Millers and 9th
ers interested are sanguine that
wheat before another harvest is
will sell for one dollar and
a hat per bushel,

SHOWERS have fallen generally
in all parts of this peninsula in the

ly affected by the lack of rain.

permitted their subscriptions to lag
behind. Don't do it. You will
die one Of these fine days and your
family will want a column obituary
published free. and then your

you will expect an Alice Roosevelt

pays to be prompt in paying your

IT has been the decision of the
military authorities of Delaware,
that rifle team shall represent the
State at the annual International
contest to be neld at Camp Perry,
Ohio, from the tenth to the thlrtieth
of August, and steam of twenty men
composed of those who have made
the best scores in practice with the
new army rifle, will be selected after
the practice firing at Rehoboth is
completed. The effectiveness Of any
troops is gagged by their accuracy
in firing, and the experience in rife
shooting demonstrates their value.
Aside from this the training for an
expert rife shot is a splendid thing
for young men physically. They
must have strong, steady nerves,
the best eyesight to become experts.
It is a fine thing for them and a re-
serve defensive strength for their
country which cannot be estimated
in value.

THIRTY FEET OF Sis ORE
IN PEDRO PROPERTY

Manager G. Mart Corns of the Pedro
property has sent word of a very en-
couraging nature to the Langley-Trim-
BILE company at Tonopah, says the Bat
tie Mountain Herald. Concerning le-
cent developments Corns says that at
a point $50 feet from where the tunnel
taps the vein the ledge is thirty feet
in width and that an average sample
just taken on the face of the drift re-
turned S14 i'm gold and 81 in silver.
AS this point is not within thicty
feet of where the rich ore was expect
ed to be encountered. the showing is re-
markable.
At this point the tunnel has attained
a depth of 100 feet on the diRrof the
vein. The entire tunnel is in ore and it
is estimated that thousands of tons are
in sight
A mining man who but recently in
spected the property said that if it
we're at an inaccessible spot and off the
railroad a great distance, there would
be a big stampede.

MACHINERY ARRIVES
FOR OHIO COPPER MILL

Twenty-Five carloads of machinery
and equipment for the Ohio Copper
compaIfy's 2,O0O-ton milling plant at
Bingham has reached Bingham Juac-
ton. Just when it is to be moved up
to the plant and installed was some
thing that could not be learned yes
terday. 1t is presumed, however, that
everything is now at a standstill pend
ing the closing of the Bingham Consoi-
idated-Ohio deal, through which it is
expected to finish the financing nf the
Ohio Copper company.
In the meantime the Mascotte tunnel
has been advanced well into Ohio
ground and the face is now within
quick striking distance. it is u3dcr-
stood, of the point directly below the
big triple-compartment Ohio operating
shaft Good ore has already been open
ed in Ohio ground by this tunnel. and
the statement is made that il will be
an easy matter TO connect the shaft
through while the machinery is being
installed in the big mill

TALKING CUSTOM MILL
FOR BULLFROG CAMP

c. r Campbell of Salt Lake, and L.
L. Smith of Chicago have been in camp
during the past several days, with a
view of installing a custom mill. They
have visited various properties through
out the district and are thoroughly sat
isfied that there is an exceptional 3D.
portunity here for a treating plant,
says the Rhyolite Herald. While these
gentlemen have not fully announced
their plans, they say that the mill will
start with a capacity of twenty tons
per day, and that the capacity will be
increased as soon as the plant is in
good working order
Volney 7. Hoggatt has agreed to con-
tract for twenty tonS a day from the
West Extension, so that the initial ca
pacity of the proposed plant is already
contracted for. The visitors inspected
the West Extension and were very
agreeably surprised at the. amount of
ore in sight.
During the week Messrs. Campbell
and Smith have been in Los Angeles
on business connected with the enter
prise and will be here again this week
to continue Investigations in the field
The location for the mill has not been
determined. but it will be built either at
RhyOlite or Beatty.

SAM nEWHOUSE
IS AFTER GOLD
Goes to Nevada in Search of
Gold Mine and Is on
Right Track.
VALCALDA, AT SILVER PEAK
is THE PRIZE FOR WHICH THE
TRIP is BEING MADE.

Samuel Newhouse wants gold mine
He intended to leave for Nevada last
night TO get it. If he did not get away
with whom he discussed the PROPOSE
ton yesterday ne said he did not care
to say where the property he wanted
to see is located. Just to beat out the
Reno papers and those at home, it may
as well be stated now that he is going
TO size up the Silver Peak Valcalda. at
Blair, in the old Silver Peak district,
probably the second biggest gold mine
in the state of Nevada allowing that
the Pittsburg- Silver Peak, adjoining, is
the biggest. Both are bonanza prop
critics. On the latter a 100-stamp mill
is now being placed in commission. On
the Valcalda a mill of modest capacity,
to handle ore during the development
of the mine. is either running or ready
to run, and it is generally known that
both mines have ore enough in sight
and new ground enough prospected to
make it certain that neither can be
worked out during the passing of the
present generation.
1t is of course impossible to say what
will be the outcome of this investiga-
ton by Mr.. Newhouse. but one thing
is certain; There is no hot air in the
drifts of the Valcalda. None of the ore
from that mine is being held under
guard In some straw bank There has
never been any picture rock exhibit
tons or fabulous strike" stories con-
nected with it. The Valcalda is sim
ply great, big gold mine. in which
the free milling values are rated by en-
gineers at something like SIS a ton. but
with development and sampling re-
turns sufficient to indicate that such
flgures are away under what actual
conditions reveal If Mr.. Newhouse
gets 1t he will have to pay for it; so
would anybody else. If it is sold 10
anybody the purchaser will get his
moneys worth; he will not be buying
pig in a poke" Should Mr.. New
house land the proposition it will be a
lucky stroke for him and it will bring
lots Of money to Salt Lake.

PARK CITY ASSAYER
GOING TO GOLD CIRCLE

Frank Hanson, well-known and
popular metallurgist and assayer of
Park City. who was with the Ontario
company for years, was in the city yes
terday equipping himself with an out
fit for use in Nevada Mr.. Hanson will
leave for Gold Circle today and the
probabilities are that he will go into
business there. He expects to do some
prospecting on his own account and
in the interests of Park City crowd
that is largely responsible for his 60
ing there.
Mr.. Hanson has been keeping his eye
on the Gold Circle district for some
time and, like a number of other Park
ties, he has formed the opinion that
the camp is one Of merit and likely full
of good things. He is going with a pur-
pose of putting in a year of his time.
At least he left things at home so that
he could absent himself that long, II
he felt that conditions justified his
staying.
