Let US ask the Republican farmers and
workingmen what "our party has done
for them IN recent years. Is it not a fact
that few men have continuously filed
the public offices since "our party" has
been in power in West Virginia? What
has "our. party" done, except hold the
offices, create new ones, and increase tax
alton? Is this the reason the Republicans
OF Preston vote for "our party?" Who
arc the Republicans OF "our party" that

Say, you taxpayers of Preston county,
why can't you get together and reason as
friends and neighbors? 1t does not mat
ter what your political beliefs may be,
your Interests are identical. If you be-
long to the middle class it cannot be
otherwise. The machines victims belong
to all political parties, and it levies its
tribute as heavily upon the Republican
as the member of any other political
party. When reason governs, instead OF
craftsmanship, the machine will meet its

The office OF associate counsel, !" which
was created by the board of public works
and handed Bill Dawson at salary of
5000 year and expenses, is fair sam
pie OF how the Republican party is re-
ducing taxation! II Dawson was a rec

the creation of this Office could not be
honestly justified by even the Repub-
lican organs of the machine. Under an
independent and fearless electorate this

AN UPWARD MOVEMENT
 HAS BEEN RESUMED

NEW YORK. Jan. 7.-Stocks were strengthened and advanced today, and the action of the general market seemed to indicate that the upward movement has been resumed. There was some further nervousness and irTegularity, but stocks were always well absorbed and each new advance carried prices higher. The develop ment of marked strength in steel was one of the most encouraging features of the market. Union Pacific and St Paul also displayed noteworthy
 strength. Amerncan Smelser made another sharp advance and gave fur. ther evidence of determined efforts to advance in the part of strong in. teTests. Both New York Central and Consolidated Gas the weak features of the past three days, advanced ma terialiy. Among the specialties Colo rado Fuel was the feature. The whole market acted in most satisfactory way. We have been urging pur- chases on the dips since Monday. We think stocks bought on such ocea- sions will return substantial profits in the near future. Such stocks as St. Paul. B. R. T., Steel, N. 6 W, Pan handle and Alton seem to promise much better prices.-Dick Bros.

Fl T|GRE PROPERTY
 REMARKABLE MINE
Has Produced Over S2,000,- 000r and Is Now Reaching
 S90,000 Month.

The Fl Tigre mlne. owned by the Lucky Tiger Mining company. of Kansas City. and Of which Mir c. w. Kitchen, Of Los Angeles, is consult ing engineer. is one of the most re narkable properties ever developed in the southern republic. 1t Is sit uated near Ysabel. on the Nacozari branch of the El Paso & Southwest ern railroad in Sonora and was pur- chased by the present company for S650,00O six years ago, says the Los Angeles Mining Review.
 Since that time every dollar that has been expended in development has come from the ground. 5000 feet of underground workings have been driven and the mine is credited with an output of S2, ,500. 900. At the pres ent time it is producing from s90,v00 to S1O0.000 a month, without taxing its capacity in the slightest degree, and of that amount about 60 per cent is profit.
 The ore Is sulphide of silver carry ing high gold values, the clean ship ing ore running about $500 to the ton, the concentrating ore about S&5 and concentrating fifteen to one. Three cars of clean ore shipped to the Copper Queen shelter last month gave returns of $262.09, s4S.S6 ana $261.61 United States currency per ton. The mine is developed to the lfOO-foot level and at the lowest point ore is found which runs % ounces in gold and 300 ounces in sil- yer to the ton. The shoot is traced to the surface for 5000 feet and is, on an average, three and one-hah feet wide.
 Several deals have been partially negotiated of late and reports made for the prospective purchasers show s13. 900 900 actually in sight. The present company has not stoped more than fifteen per cent of the ore bod ies opened up.

TRUMPETER SWANS
 CAUGHT IN TUCSON
Tucson Star)

Two Trumpter swans (Olor buccin- ator) were killed at the Flowing Wells ranch Monday morning. One was a young. the other an adult bird, the latter being snowy white with the ex- ception of bill, loves and feet which n the genus are black. These birds, when young. differ materially in coln from the adults. being a slaty blue. Although not common, the bird is by no means rare as 1t is distributed partly throughout the interior of North America and breeds from Iowa anu the Dakotas northward. but mainly north; wintering from Southern Brit ish Columbia to the Gulf of Mexico and Southern California, they are ser dom seen hereabouts because of the lack of open water. They have, how ever. been seen and killed pretty much alI over the territory. The writer knows Of three that were killed Or, the Gila. near Florence, of one or two on the Salt River above Phoenix. sey- eraI on the Colorado, one at La Noria. and two on Warmers lake-a once existant body of water at -the Sou,h base of Sentinel peak-and now two ct Flowing Wells. The larger of the latter two birds the VT ter did not see. but the young one was extremely poor in flesh probably due to m cx- tended flight It was in the trsRs:- tioa stage of coloration.
