THE Democrats of this Congressional
didate for Congress at Harrisburg, as the
primary law provides, our present eff
cient member, Hon. Nelson p. Wheeler,
will have the field to himself so far as
that party is concerned. This is a dis
tinct compliment to Mr.. Wheeler, whose
excellence as representative of ability
and worth, and whose strength as vote
getter are thus recognized and appreciated
by the party next in power to the Repub-
licans. The Prohibition party has filed a
petition favoring gentleman named j.
M. Brown, of Grove City, Pa, who will
be Mr.. Wheeler's only opponent at the
fall election.

eoinq over Entire Gillette Case.

Albany, March 24..It was said at
the executive chamber that Governor
Hughes had devoted three nights 60
ing over the entire Gillette case and
was familiar with every detail. He
is holding his final decision in abey-
ance, it is said, because certain
friends of Gillette have informed the
governor that they desire to submit
additional data, which the governor
has promised to look into before an
nouncing his conclusion.

SPEAKING of the "farcical hypocrisy"
displayed by Congressman, in voting to
restore "In God We Trust on the coins,
the Washington Post pertinently asks: If
we are to inscribe these words upon our
coins, why may we not with equal pro-
priety stamp them on our bullets2 Why
not cut them on the blades of our bay
onets? Each does a service for the
American Government, and the work of
war has, in its essence, just as much con-
nection with God and His divine charac-
ter as commerce. If we are not engaged
in unrighteous war, our bullets may be
labeled with declaration of our trust with
precisely as much and as logical reason
as our coins, since each is but a servant
of legitimate governmental functions.
The fact is that as individuals the people
of the United States do trust in God AS
a government they don't do anything of
the sort. They trust in their might, in
their men, in their ships and guns and
money. Our whole policy as a nation
has proved this. 1t is mockery to put
upon the symbols of governmental func.
tons piece of sentimentality which our
whole national conduct proves a bit of
pretense and in reality denies.

ACCORDING to New York correspond
ent the yellow shoe is coming back. or
course it has not been away entirely, but
this season it is coming back good and
plenty, for men as we'll as women. And
the women are responsible, according to
the shoe dealers. The yellow shoe had
its greatest vogue about l5 years ago, and
then the sales began to decrease, and as
far as men were concerned, fell off almost
entirely in New York. Last year the
women began to show liking for brown
and other light colored shoes. Then they
asked for the yellow shades. Then some
man was induced to ask for yellow shoes
and that started it. The buyers for the
big stores, always looking ahead, began
ordering yellow shoes and the factories
obeyed. Hence the great and increasing
display of yellow shoes in the windows
along Broadway. "By the time the warm
wave hits here" said dealer, "the town
will be full of yellow Shoes"

THE April number of The Ladies
World, New York City, which has just
reached our table, has made an unusual
departure for household magazine, and
in connection with its puzzle department
which seems rather appropriateness
obtained the opinions of its readers on
the presidential possibilities. The result
is certainly interesting, for out of over
two thousand two Hundred replies,
Roosevelt obtained 756, Taft 667, Hughes
392, Bryan 236, Fairbanks SO, Johnson 32,
LaFollette 20, Cortelyou II, Knox II,
Gray II, Folk IL, Haywood s, Foraker
Hearst, Loeb, Berry, Cannon, Daniels
and Douglas getting each few. The ed
itor in brief comment on the figures
states that the letters come from every
State in the Union, and whether they
have or have not any significance, are at
least free expression of opinion on the
part of body ofrepresentative people.

THE clerks of the state department at
Harrisburg are still wrestling with the
avalanche of nomination petitions, result
ing from the first operations of the uni
form primaries act. According to the
Harrisburg Telegraph, about three thous-
and such petitions were received, fully
fifteen hundred of which we're not filed
until the 18th, the last day allowed for
that purpose. Every one of these papers
has to be examined, recorded and checked
up. Many papers were rejected as defect
i've, in some instances the names of the
candidates and the districts represented
being omitted. Efforts were made to
file petitions on behalf of the Roosevelt,
United Labor and Independent parties,
but as only five parties, by reason of the
votes cast, have the right to file petitions,
these were all rejected. The law requires
all candidates for congressional, judicial,
senatorial and legislative honors in this
state to file petitions of nomination with
the state authorities, who certify the NOM
nations to the various boards of county
commissioners for printing on the ballot.

call for pesos, or Mexican silver dol lars. The old lady was snown the ad- of accepting bank draft for the amount, but ner business education had never taken into account money in that form, she even refusing paper money. She wanted "dinero fuerte" and it began to look as if the sale might be called off until that S16,O00 in silver pesos could be gotten to- gether.
 The situation was canvassed, like wise the banking concerns of the town, with the result that enough silver dol lars were finally raised, and when four men came in carrying them in bags to be counted and turned over to the old lady, her eyes fairly started from her head at the prospect of so much money. Her first request was that she be counted out one hundred, which was done and she placed them in a bundle inside her clothing, and then set her lawyer to counting the remainder of the money. When the sum of four thousand dollars was counted out and the old lady saw the size of the pile, she murmured signs of disapproval, and negotiations were opened where by she might secure the balance of the payment in paper. This chanced to be in bills of small denominations and it began to accumulate so rapidly, that by the time the figure of eight thousand dollars had been reached, began asking questions about the draft that tney had previously wanted to give her, with the final result that she took exchange for s8,OO0 and cash for a like amount.
 Her original intention was to secure payment of the amount in silver and have it transported by buro to Bas- arac where she resides. As a basis for computation it might be stated that one thousand Mexican silver dollars weigh approximately sixty pounds, con- sequently her payment, if made in sil- yer would weigh in the neighborhood of one thousand pounds.

FINAL PAYMENT
 FOR INDIAN LANDS Purchased By the KickapOoS in Mexico for the Sum

DOUGLAS, July 22.-(SpeciaL)- NJ. J. Bentley, the agent for the Kick poo Indians, who left yesterday morn ing for the east, has just returned from Moctezuma, where he made final pay ment for the lands which the Indians have purchased in Mexico. The lands were not purchased from the govern ment, as has been stated several times, but from Sonora Guadalupe Cecena, for tho consideration of s16,000 in Mexican money. The grant of land purchased included about 10000 acres, which will be immediately taken over by the Indians.
 An incident of the payment for the land was related by John Goston, agent here for Mir. Bentley. The payment for the lands was made at Moctezuma, and at the instance of Sra. Cecena, who is an old lady, her attorney had drawn the agreement for payment to

Superior and Pittsbura


 Superior and Pittsburg is develop ing a lot of very rich mines, and it's stock should soon become an import ant factor in the market. A year or more ago the management decided that the thirty or forty miles of un- derground openings which had been made up to that time had gone above the ore deposits, and sinking was re- sumed in the Junction, Calumet and Pittsburg. Lake Superior and Pitts burg and Pittsburg and Duluth mines, which, 1t will be remembered, were consolidated to form the Superior and Pittsburg company. Some splendid bodies of ore have been opened since in the Calumet and Pitsburg and Lake Superior and Pittsburg and recently the Junction workings have encount- cred s per cent sulphide ore at three different points which are so related 10 each other as 10 indicate that a very large body of this extremely rich ore has been located and is being developed.
 T called attention to Superior and Pittsburg stock some time ago and ad- vised it's purchase. Unquestionably it is destined to make very big mine and a substantial dividend payer. The company has 100000 shares of stock outstanding, however, and consider able indebtedness. I am told that the company turned the corner" recently and is now showing an operating pro fit Its ores run from i to per cent, are practically self-fixunig, and will yield copper at a cost of 8 cents to g cents per pound. A continuance of the very favorable developments which have occurred during the past six or eight months will soon put the com pany in a position to double it's pres ent production, pay of its indebted ness and establish a working surplus
 At SIP per share Superior and Pittsburg's capital stock has a mar ket value of S1S,000,O0 and compares with a market value of S22, ,500, 900 for Calumet and Arizona.

Operations in the local mining field have been fairly wel covered from cay to day by the Silver Belt, leaving little to be said of the weeks work that Is new
 The organization of the McMilen Silver Mining compnay, mentioned un der a separate head in this issue, is important as st means that an earnest effort is to be made to revive silver mining in Globe district, after twenty five years suspension of that branch of mining.
 J. Park Charming, the well known mining engineer, is still here in consul tation with the focal officers of the Miami Copper company, to adopt plans for the further development or tne companys fine property and to ar range for the construction of the first lO0Oton unit of a concentratOr.
 The delay in starting work on the Keystone property, under ale New man option, is said to be for the req son that the comprehensive scheme of development agreed upon has re- Quired time to complete in detail. We understand that it is now only a matter of very short time until work will be begun and diligently prescott ed.
 The rainstorms of the past week have not interfered with surface work to any extent, but rather have been helpful by breaking the drought and improving the roads.

Superior and Boston.

Recent important work on this property has been the exploration on the 450-foot level of the Great East ern mine, east of the main crosscut, to determine the strike of the Black Hawk lode. This has been carried on under the direction of Frank H. Pro bert, consulting engineer for the com pany, who has made a close study of the geological features of the Superior and Boston property and he IS greatly encouraged by the developments in the east drift north of the shaft, which on Thursday broke into ore near the hanging wall. Superintendent W. E. Carter states the face of the drift now shows eight feet of hematite carrying some copper. The drift has been turned slightly to follow the footwall and indications point to the opening of a new lenz of commercial ore.
 Drifting is now in progress east and west from the bottom of the winze in a body of high grade ore thirteen feet wide.
 The Gardner shaft is down 240 feet and sinking continues.

 NEW YORK, IUIy 22.-The market today was again somewhat reaction ary at the opening, but it quickly hardened up and in spite of predic- tions in some of the leading dailies here that the Standard Oil fine would be upheld by the United States court of appeals, the advance in Standard oil stock on the curb lately, combined with the buoyancy in the general market indicated otherwise, and as is often the case the course of prices spoke more eioQuently than all the gossip, and tips extant, and when the announcement was made it was nailed with decided relief by every ore, especially that portion containing the arraignment of Judge Landis for the absurd fine imposed in Chicago. After hesitating for a while Ca the announcement due to considerable selling of long stocks, which took place about that time. the market closed strong and active and looks as if it would go still higher.

There are TO changes of importance to note, either in the underground de yelopments or the operation of the surface works of Globes leading cop per company. TIe flow of water into the mine from the Gray territory as well as from the region of Pinal creek, is still excessive, but is being han died without difficulty. The sinking of 4 shaft below the fourteenth level is now proceeding with three shifts employed.
 A road has been constructed to the site of the two-compartment shaft to be sunk on the hill about TOO Feet west of Pinal creek and the company nas an advertisement in this issue of the Silver Belt inviting bids for the sink ing of this shaft 300 feet. The grad ing has already been done and sour feet of the shaft excayareG.
 At the shelter everything is nov ing with customary regularity and an average output of copper for the month is promised Shipments of cop per have been made every day or two of late and yesterday afternoon the copper dump was almost clear or met al.
 Work at the dam in Pinal creek has been suspended until after the rain season closes in September when it will be pushed to speedy coucIu- sion.
