Hawaii Wants American Farmers.

Honolulu, Hawaii, Jan. 5.-Hawaii
has place for many American farm
ers. There are also openings for
various lines of manufactures; but
at present tradesmen and artisans
are not in demand, these fields be-
ing we'll covered by merchants al
ready established, and by the Chimes

population and good percentage of
Portuguese and Spanish settlers, also
furnishing the manual labor supply of
the Territory.
The farmers are needed for de-
veloping widely diversified list of
agricultural and horticultural product
for which the islands are eminently
adapted. The reason that this de-
velopment has not taken place long
ago, is that almost all of the COM
paratively small white population cap
able of doing it, has for half cer,
tury or more been interested either
directly or indirectly to the exclusion
of everything else, in the sugar in

number of large cattle ranches, and

STRIKE IN
NEWHOUSE
Big Find Made in Breast Of
Tunnel of Ore that Assays
u Ounces to the Ton.
Important Strike.

The last lingering doubt that may
nave existed as to the benefits to
be derived from the extension of the
Newhouse tunnel was dispelled Mon
day when the welcome news came
that strike rivaling in richness the
discoveries of early days had been
made in the breast of the tunnel
The workmen had been boring
through an almost impenetrable wall
of solid granite when suddenly as
result of single round of holes,
a body of ore sufficient to fill eight
tunnel cars to their utmost capacity
was brought to veiw.
Since the discovery a run of the
mineral has been made which yielded
over II ounces of gold to the cord.
This find absolutely proves the
truth of the contention of the pro.
moters, that deep mining would re-
veal as great values in Quartz hill
as were ever taken out in the history
of the mining industry.
While it is impossible at this time
to accurately determine the lead from
which this ore was taken, yet it is
reasonably certain that further in
vestigation will place it on either
the ingalls, or Illinois lodes with a
slight chance in favor of the Poca-
hontas claim.
Miners and owners, especially in
the Nevada district are jubilant and
it is freely predicted that all the

sumption of operations as soon as

The work of installing the Sigafoos
boring machine is progressing in
highly satisfactory manner and all
indication leads to the fact the mach
inery will be ready to put into COM
mission by Jan. IL, as scheduled, say
the Idaho Springs Gazette. The peo-
pie of Georgetown in fact, through
out Colorado, are anxiously awaiting
the outcome Of the tests that are to
be made. 1t is understood that there
will be present to witness the starting
OF the machinery an array of mining
men from various sections of Colo
rado. Georgetown has, indeed, been
signally honored in being the first
place decided upon in which to make
the tests, and the people as a whole
are duly appreciative. In the event
that the machine will do what is
claimed for it new era will dawn

WATER FOR
NEvADAv|LLE
Company Now Has Under
Consideration Plan for Sup
plying the Fluid to Neva-
Ga and Russell Gulch.

The monumental error of the
authorities in the early and prosper
Gus days of Nevadaville in allowing
one of the most valuable water rights
in the state to slip through their fin
gers seems about to be remedied in
the proposed action Of the Philadel-
phia German mining company, now
operating the German and Leontine
group near this city. Moved by the
actual necessity of an adequate vol
ume of water to operate a mill for
the treatment of the vast uranium de-
posits recently uncovered, this COM
pany has been quietly acquiring the
Big and Little Hamlin gulch water
rights and in addition to providing
for their own needs a bountiful sup
ply is promised for private and indi-
vidual use.
AS now outlined the plan is to
build a large reservoir at the foot
of Bald Mountain and bring the waite
along the line of the old Consolidated
ditch to the head of the system.
From the reservoir the fluid will be
piped to all parts of the city. An
extension to Russell Gulch is also
promised.
The scarcity of water in both
camps has been great handicap in
the development of these towns as
desirable places of residence. Now
with an ample supply assured many
people will be glad to avail themselve
of the privilege of living near the
properties in which they are inter-
ested.

mittee on criminal Jurisprudence. The
Judge was indignant over the appoint
ment and forthwith resigned.
Three bills have been introduced in
the house by Gilpin county's repre-
sentative. Two are for changes in
the charters Of Central and Black
Hawk and the other Is for an ap-
preparation for the completion of the
wagon road from Tolland to American
City, which was started last year
but not completed, owing to the fact
that the 10Th assembly had not con-
tributed sufficient money for the pur-
pose.
According to the lineup Hicks will
lead the bolting fraction of the Demo
Gratis in the House and the illustrious
Tully Scott, of Cripple Creek, will hea
the recalcitrants in the Senate. These
boiling Democrats are styled plat
form Democrats" by T. NJ. Patterson
and his papers. By this he would
convey the impression that all those
who do not come under this heading
will not make an effort to have the
platform pledges redeemed OF
course, this is all poppy cock. The
Democrats who will not bow to the
dictates of Patterson are just as loyal
to the party and will prove to. be as
much in favor of carrying out the
pledges made in the platform as the
so-called platform Democrats" who
are nothing more nor less than Pat
terson Democrats" From information
CLEANED among the legislators it
seems an avowed fact that unless the
Gilpin county representative gets in
line and quits fighting the Denver
organization he will be help
less, as far as having any bills pass
ed, as though he had remained at

Taking lease upon an abandoned

Taking a lease upon an abandoned
mining property, installing machinery
and running into a well defined vein
of $3.50 ore in less than thirty days
is the record of Harry Armfield and
company now operating the Forks
mine on Quartz hill. The strike was
made in the 800 level and is consider.
ed by experts to be the most i'm
portant find made in this section in
years. simultaneously with the strike
above recorded John Lying and Co.

away discovered a pocket of high

bids fair to run into a goodly sum
of money with further development.

Where Quality Counts.

Did you ever think about it?
Who pays for the advertising of
merchants and other business
men. Not the advertiser, for
the cost is returned to him two
folds in increasing profits. Not
the purchaser, for he buys
cheaper from the advertiser and
has a better assortment and
fresh goods to select from. Who
then, really pays the bills? The
non-advertiSerS of course. A
just proportion of the money
lost by his lack of initiative and
enterprise finds its way event
ually to the printer, to advance
