THE PLATFORM.

In this issue of the Silver State
News is presented the full text of the
Republican platform, adopted at Chi
Gag last week.
By everyone, except the prejudi eo
opposition, it is conceded to be a most
compr hensive declaration of principles
promH' gated by a political party. Ev-
cry important current issue is touch
ed upon, and the attitude of the party
in relation thereto is set forth in a
frank and fearless manner
The anti injunction plank is not as
radical as asked for by labor leaders
but then it must be remembered that
the D%epublican party is opposed to
class legislation, and in making laws
is mindful of the best interests of all
classes.
The document shauld prove p%articu-
larry attractive to the people of Ne
vada, for it unequivocally pledges the
party to the establishment of a nation
to a revision of the tariff.
On the latter issue the campaign will
be fought, and there should be no
doubt as to the result. In the hands
of its friends, the tariff schedules
should be gone over in a careful and
intelligent manner and the interests
of the American agrieulturalist and
working man will be amply protected

Mr.. and Mrs. Nicholas Longworth OF
Ohio occupied seats on the plat
form at the convention. Alice
was bedecked with a Merry Widow lid
that effectively shut all those who were
sitting behind her. A request from a
sergent-at-arms to remove the offendin {
sky-piece was met with a curt refusal.
AT this juncture Nick showed who
was the boss in public by ordering
her to remove the hat. After a mo-
ment' hesitation it came off, with
as good a grace as possible. However,
the press dispatches failed to give the
result of the second and final inning,
which took place that evening in the
private apartments of the young cou-
pie.

The feature of the Chicago conven-
ton was the remarkable demonstration
that occurred at the mention of the
name of President Roosevelt. The
cheering lasted forty-fve minutes,
during which time the convention
worked itself up to a frenzy of ex-
citement Had nominations been in
order at that time. it is probable that
the gathering would have forgotten
it's Instructions and nominated the
President by acclamation.

MINERAL RIDGE
- HwN
DOES MUCH WORK
Beauty Bay Mine Makes a Good
Showing on Its
Property.

8. A. varnnm. president OF the
Mineral Ridge Mining company. who
has been in charge Of the develop
ment work OF the company's group
of claims during the summer was
in the city today, and he reports the
progress OF work as rapid and salts
factory, and feels confident that the
property will develop into a splendid
paying mine.
Mr.. varnum stated that the COM
pany had expended fully $4,000 in
development work during the sum
mer, and besides It has constructed
blacksmith shop and a good trail
from Beauty Bay to the claims, and
has located Ave acre mill site. The
development work was commenced
last May and the company has had
in fits employment ON the property
from two to six men steady, and is
now working 10 r men. The COM
pany recently had Professor John G.
GaFvln, OF Spokane, make an inspec-
ton Of the property, and he gave a
very favorable report. Professor
Garvin ID thoroughly conversant with
minerology and geology, and IL a min
ing engineer. and In his report he
gives It as his opinion that the pres
ent property win develop into good
paying mine, and that the enterprise
Ia worthy of the support OF every
citizen and business man In Occur
d'Alene. The professor states that
he found all the geological conditions
favorable, That the fund three fis-
sure veins already exposed. and one
large chist ledge so feet wide and
500 feet long. The company Is at
the present engaged in prosecuting
this ledge, and have extrated from 1t
sopper. gold and silver values OF
St1.s9 to the ton, From one OF the
shafts 35 deep In a assure vein, lead
and silver and "old has assay
$50 to the ton. The professors re
port throughout was strong indorse-
ment Of the property, and he does
not hesitate to risk his opinion as an
expert In making the statement that
II IA only a matter of development
when the company win have a good
paying mine.
The eompany's property consists
Of Ave claims which we're located Ave
years ago. The claims are situated
on long narrow ridge between
Wolf Lodge and Beauty Bay. at q
height Of about 1000 feet. The 10.
oation OF the claims Is ideal as It en-.
ables the company TO do their de.
velopment work by tunneling instead
of sinking shafts. which Is a fai
more expensive process, The com
pany Is now offering a few shares e
the public for four cents a share II
order to raise funds with which t.
continue tie development work.
