tering and almost assured prospects
of success. They each of them give
promise of swelling the business Of
the district quite as much as it has
been increased by the other two new
enterprises now so successfully
started. And our home people are
investing in the new projects with
more confidence than they have
heretofore shown. Indeed, the
miners and men of limited means
are cheerfully investing as largely
as their means will justify, where a
year or more ago they would have
pulled out and invested their means
in Nevada or elsewhere. We have
had the privilege of looking over a
list OF the subscribers to one of these
new companies and find that more
than 10000 shares of its stock have
been sold to the employers of one
single neighboring mine These
sales have been made, we have been
told, to men who have knowledge of
the properly and confidence in the
men who formed the company.
They have been prompted by the
success of the already going" COM

A CHEERFUL OUTLOOK.

Whether it be owing to the sue
cess in financing and carrying
through the Potosi and Banner
mine undertakings in our mining
district or other reasons, certainly
the mining outlook for Owyhee
county has not looked as bright in
many years. No prospectors are
going from here to look for better
chances in other mining sections;
new claims are being located almost
daily; men with capital are coming
here in greater numbers, looking
for chances for investments, and
our camps are wearing a more
cheerful look than heretofore. 1t
may be noted that within the past
few days, two new mining compan-
les have been incorporated with fat

FRIDAY. JULY 10, 1908.
THE BATTLE NOW ON.

The platforms of all the various
political parties, upon which they
will ask the support of the voters
of our great republic for their
candidates, will soon be before
the people, and it will be the duty
of each and every patriotic citi-
zen to read all OF the platforms
carefully, lay aside all party pref
udice, thoroughly investigate the
past record OF each candidate,
study the needs of the entire
country without prejudice to any
particular section and give bis or
her support to that party and
candidate that most nearly
comes up to ones ideas of fitness
and requirement for the various
Offices to which they they have
been nominated.
Our beloved government was
founded upon the principle of in
dependence, and each and every
citizen is supposed to be intelli-
gent enough to form his own
opinions, capable of discerning
right from wrong, and to have
will power and manhood enough
to perform the duties of citizen.
ship as an elector, as he thinks
to be right.
Upon this principle was our
government founded, and upon
it must we as a republic stand or
fall. Whenever the time comes
that the masses of our citizens
become SO servile as to follow
blindly the dictates of the bosses
of corrupt political parties, and
not follow the dictates of their
conscience to vote for the right,
as they have the light to see the
right; then may we look for the
loss of the privileges guaranteed
by the constitution, ollie, liberty
and the pursuit of Happiness, and
the fall of our government.
Let us hope that patriotism
will prevail, and that the candi-
dates elected will work for the
best interest of the country.
While our views may differ from
the views of many of our readers
yet let us all work for that which
we think to be for the best inter-
est of our country. '"Tis better
to THINK even if one thinks wrong
ly, than not to think at ALL Isl
true from a political standpoint
as from any other. The crying
need of the masses of the Ameri-
can people is to get in the habit
of thinking for themselves and
not to allow someone who has
"an AK to grind" (the political
The Owyhee nugget. ([Silver City], Idaho) 1905-1984, 1908-07-10

bosses) to do the thinking for
them.
The Republican Convention
which lately met at Chicago NOM
mated VIM. H. Taft for president
and James S. Sherman of New
York, for vice-president, and adj
opted a platform or declaration
of principles that is supposed to
be an indication of the policies
that the republican party will
follow if their candidates are
elected.
The socialist party named Eu-
gene V. Debs for their standard
bearer and adopted a platform
for guidance.
The democratic party is now
in session at Denver and the in
dications are that William j..
Bryan will be their candidate for
president and will adopt a plat
form upon which they will stand
for the verdict of the voters.
Read the platforms of each
party. Study them. Think
about them. Compare them
without prejudice or partiality,
no matter what your former
party allegiance has been. Then
ask yourself which one most fully
comes up to your ideas of the
course to be pursued by the ship
of state. Are the candidates sin
cere; will they live up to the re-
quirements of the platform upon
which they stand7 Are their
records as public men what they
should be? Do they stand the test !?
Would their election be for the best
interest of the country? These are
questions for you to answer to your
own conscience and then vote ac-
cordingly, like free born citizen
of this republic should do at all
elections.
The result OF the presidential
campaign can only be surmised at
present, as the masses of the voters
are getting in the way of thinking
out political questions for them
selves, and not allowing themselves
to be whipped into line by party
leaders; of which we have an ex-
ample in the late elections in our
neighboring state, Oregon. One
cannot help but respect and honor
an individual who exhibits the
manhood to take stand fer that
which he thinks to be right, be he
one Of the voters in a state or ma
tional election, or a U. S. Senator,
as did the voters of Oregon, in vot-
ing for Gov. Chamberlain for U s.
Senator. or Senator Hepburn in
voting against the Aldrich-Vree-
land Currency Bill.
