that this preliminary work will be COM

bodies.
At point 165 feet from the inter-

encountered fine streak of lead ore
which promises great things for the

any extent and no assay values have
been determined the company has the
assurance that good values and large
body of ore is ahead of them. The leas-

months to opening the ground.

business, and propose to legitimately
compete with the best laundries in Dem

of machinery will be installed, and
when once established there will be no
occasion for going out of town for laun-
dry work.
The following taken from the Denver
News, if true will prove interesting to
people of this end of the county.
Local capitalists are making plans
for the construction of an observatory
on Gray's peak, IA, AL feet above sea
level, if they succeed in purchasing the
Argenting Central railroad from E. J..
Wilcox its present owner. The plans
contemplate the extension of the road
from the summit of Mount Mcclellan
to the summit of Gray's peak. The
cost of the road and the contemplated
improvements will be about 81, 200, 600.
The construction of the observatory
depends entirely it is said, upon the
purchase of the road"

SENATOR McCUMBER,s ADDRESS.

The Department of the Potomac is
being applauded for its selection of Sem
ator p. ]. McCumber, of North Dakota,
for Memorial Day orator at the Great
National Cemetery at Arlington.
Many of the greatest orators in the
country have spoken on Memorial Day
at Arlington-President Governors,
Generals, Representatives and men dis
tinguished in professional and literary
walks.
There Is a consensus of opinion. how
ever. that Senator McCumber's address
was the finest in matter and manner
ever listened to on that hallowed spot.
Senator McCumber is an original and
deep thinker. He has an artistic per-
ception in clothing his thoughts with
words. and his oratorical delivery is so
fine that it arrests attention and COM
mands hearing even In that gathering
of splendid orators-the Senate of the
United States.

VETO OF THE NEW YORK PENSION
BILL

The bill to pension the veterans of
New York passed both branches of the
Assembly, but was vetoed by the Gov
ernor This bill, 1t will be remembered,
covered bond issue of $4,000. 900, 900,
and had to be approved by the voters
at general election. There seemed
more insincerity and more desire to put
the Governor of New York in a hole
than real affection for the veterans
among those who voted for the bill. At
the came time the Legislature passed
another bill for bond issue for the
canals Under the Constitution but one
of these bills could be submitted to the
people at any election, and the politi-
clans. who have little love for Gov.
Hughes, planned to put upon him the
responsibility of selecting which of
these measures would be submitted.
Gov. Hughes decided that it was better
to submit the canal improvement bill
to the people, and therefore vetoed the
pension bill. He decided that this was
unconstitutional and. beyond this, did
not approve of its principle. He did
not think that 1T was good policy for
the State to assume obligations to pay
pensions based simply upon service in
the Army of the United States. 1t was
not question of patriotic sentiment,
but one of proper division of the State
and National functions.
The Governor also said that IL the
State of New York were going to give
pensions TO its volunteers, the man who
served in one of her regiments and is
now living IN Illinois is Just as much
entitled to pension as tho he still
lived In the State. Furthermore. tn,
Governor said that this bill made a
most important precedent, and If al
lowed to become law would have far
reaching consequences. II State PEN
sion is to be granted on the basis of
80 days service. it would have to event
ually include those who served in the
Spanish War. While 1t was true that
the people would have to finally pass
upon this bill, yet it remained also true
that If submitted to them 1t had to have
behind 1t powerful recommendations of
the Legislature and the Governor.
which he as Chief Executive of New
York could not give.

THE DUNKERs.

There Is more trouble among our ex-
tremely conservative friends, the Dunk
ers or Brethren. These people, who are
opposed to all forms of ostentatious dis
younger members, who want to wear
snowy neckties, watch chains and SINH
lar denominations. Some of the breth-
rem who are living in cities have actual
ly put organs and stained-glass windows
in their churches. Last year two dele
gates from the Germantown Church
were refused admission to the confer
ence for eastern Pennsylvania because
they wore gold-rimmed glasses. The
Germantown Church was angered at
this refusal to admit its delegates, and
instructed its pastor to write a protest
He urged that the conference to be con-
sistent should refuse to admit delegates
who wore gold-filled teeth, which in
many instances contained four or five
times as much gold as a pair of specta-
cles. The pastor was opposed by those
who quoted two texts at him:
''I Peter, ill.,, 3: Whose adorning let
1t not be the outward adorning of plait-
ing the hair. and of wearing of gold, or
of putting on of apparel
Il. Timothy, H., g.: In like manner
also that women adorn themselves in
modest apparel, with shamefacedness
and sobriety, not with broidered hair,
or gold, or pearls. or costly array"
This seemet sufficient for the confer
ence, which decided to return the pro-
test without action. This was a refusal
to recognize the right of men wearing
gold-rimmed glasses to seats in the con-
ference. The Ohio Conference has
adopted stringent rule that all mem
bers shall be expelled unless they agree
that:
The wearing of hats by sisters the |
mustache alone by brethren, all FASH
ionable dressing. wearing of jewelry, |
gold and unnecessary Ornamentation be |
discontinued, and that the sisters wear |
the prayer cap during religious SER
vices"

Memorial Association has been
formed at Greenville, Tenn, to express
ident Andrew Johnson, and its first
public demonstration was on Memorial
Day. when his grave was decorated in
the presence of 5000 people. The main
trouble with Andrew Johnson was that
he was far from being as great a man
as Abraham Lincoln, and yet fate threw
upon him, without moments warm
ing. the gigantic tasks with which only
the greatest man in our history could
have successfully grappled Inevitably
he made great mistakes. but these are
now forgotten. and we only remember
him as the brave and undaunted rep
resentative of the splendid Ioyalists of
East Tennessee. We remember with
what courage he struggled for the
Union, and dared the worst that the
Confederates could do to uphold the
Flag of the country. From first to last
he was intrepid in the defense of the
Union, and as a Senator in Congress and
Governor of his State he was a tower
of strensh. His career before the war
at the time when the parting of the
ways had come and during the war
makes splendid chapter of manly
courage and loyalty, and his memory
deserves to be perpetuated for the adj
and education of the coming
generations.

FALL OF THE TURK.

A wave OF Primitive Christianity
struck Washington last week in the
convention of the Seventh Day Adven-
lists. Undoubtedly the city received
benefit from it, as any would from the
presence of great numbers of sincerely
believing, assertive Christians. These
the Adventists are beyond any doubt,
and they cling to their faith with a
whole-souledness that no other denomi-
nation surpasses If 1t equals. They have
only one creed, the absolute letter Of
! The Holy Scriptures. They allow no
one to stand between them and God in
the Interpretation of His word, and
most il not all the deductions they
make from this are exceedingly inter-
esting- Most interesting were the
prophecies of Elder John D. Wightman,
the leading spirit in the denomination,
and also General Secretary of the Gen.
trail States Religious Liberty Associa-
tion. Elder Wightman is confident that
the fall of the Ottoman Empire is at
have been looking forward for SO years.
The downfall of the Turk will be the
beginning of general European war,
the expulsion of Mahomet from Europe
and a great Christian war ending at
Jerusalem. when Christ will come and
the end of the world. Elder Wightman
says that every event in the last so
years has been an exact fulfillment of
the prophecies in the Scripture. The
unspeakable Turk is the ApoIlyon Of
Chapter TX of the book of Revelations,
and the end will come in 541 years and
Is days from the invasion Of the terri
tory of Nicomedia by Gilman, the
greatest of the Mahometans and from
whom the Empire takes its name. Elder
Wightman says:
at was DIR. Adam Clarke, the famous
commentator of the Bible, who point
ed out many years ago that the Sultan
was the Biblical King of the North
of Chapter XII of Daniel, occupying the
identical territory of the old Assyrian
Kingdom, originally held by Lysi-
machus. The 10th verse was remark
ably fulfilled in the events of the
French revolution, the attempt of Ma
poleon to conquer Egypt, the coming
sof the Turks. with a 'whirlwind' of ships
sand men, and the overflow of the Pales-
tine possessions of Egypt, and a great
levy of tribute. Napoleon was driven
forth. and to this day the Turk is the
master of the land. The 44th verse
was realized in the Crimean war, and
there remains nothing more, from the
Scriptural prophecy, but the driving
forth of the Turk to Jerusalem, the
glorious holy mount and there he
shall come to his end and none shall
keep him."
What them" was asked
Just this-the coming of Christ and
the end of the age. How do we know?
Because of the 18th and goth verses of
Chapter XII of Daniel, where it is
prophesied that the world will be
plunged into such war. strife and dis
tress as is characterized as "A great
time of trouble, such as never was since
there was Nation Then the end
comes and the resurrection of the dead
takes place."

SENATORIAL DIGNITY.

/ Last week Vice President Sherman
found 1t necessary to admonish the Sen
| ators that they must not use the pro-
noun you" in speaking to their COL
leagues, but must allude to them as
the Senator from" This is very proper
etiquet for any body. and the Vice
Presidents admonition was timely.
Something that may be called a coinci-
dence, or anything that you please, was
that Senator Joe Bailey, of Texas, went
out into the corridors, and punched a
newspaper correspondent whose report
of the proceedings had not pleased the
swashbuckling Texan. The newspaper
man punchedr back quite as effectively
as the Senator. and probably would
have gotten away with him. altho he
was smaller man, if other Senators
had not inteTfered. The main feature
OF this is thata Mr.. Bailey ruins himself
as leader and d statesman. The time
was when many people thought that
the young Senator from Texas had in
him the making OF a political leader
such as the-South soreIy needs. and
when the efReryessence of youth was
past would settle down into a saracious
and conservative leader worthy of the
best traditions of the South. This in
cident. following sothers, destroys all
hopes of this?iand puts Bailey in a de-
cidedly lower position. He seems con-
sumed with hunger to punch those
who disagree with him., and vet he is
not nearly so bellicose in Texas as he
is in the Senate Chamber. Out there
are great many men who do not like
him even little bit. and as they are
game fighters Bailey must have had to
keep his punching spirit severely under
control to avoid meeting which would
destroy his political influence as COM
pletely as Senator JEFF Davis. of Arkan-
sas. lost his in casual street encoun-
ter. Many prominent men in Texas
have said much harder things about
Bailey than the newspaper correspond
ent did. and Bailey has never presumed
to call them to account

In spite of all that we have heard
ABOUT the unselfish, disinterested pa
triotism of the Japanese. it develops
that this is quite as rife there as any
where. Twenty members of the Japan
ese Parliament have been arrested, to-
gether with many other officials and
private citizens. on general charges of
bribery by the Sugar Trust. It is spe-
cifically alleged that 100000 was dis
tributed among the legislators for the
purpose of securing favorable action
for the Sugar Trust American boodlers
will remark that the smallness of the
sum indicates how japanese cheap labor

Talk about being betwixt the devil
and the deep sea. Gov. Haskell, of Okla
homa, is gyrating between the fnfiamed
points of the G. A. r. and the United
Confederate Veterans. The G. A. r.
wanted him to issue a proclamation
making Memorial Day a holiday; the
U. c. V. demanded the same for June
S-Confederate Memorial Day-and the
Grand Jury is much more insistent and
commanding than either of the others.
Haskell finally refused to issue either
proclamation. on the ground that 1t
might prejudice his case before the
Grand Jury. We are too remote from
Oklahoma and Oklahoma methods of
thought to understand this pretext
Probably it does not matter Almost
any old thing goes in Oklahoma.
