STATUE TO GEN. OGDEN.
Movement On Foot 10 Erect Memorial TO
Leader Of white league.

In another place we are publishing
this morning a communication from
Dr.. Henry Dickson Bruins, who sug-
gests that a statue of the late Gen.
Frederick Nash Ogden, leader Of the
White League, be erected in New
Orleans, to commemorate the price
less service rendered by that dis
tinguished s~oldier-citizen to New Or
leans, to Louisiana and in the large
sense to the South and to the nation.
The suggestion seems to US to be an
admirable one. As commander of
the forces which gave the deathblow
to carpetbag rule in Louisiana on
that memorable September day in
1874, Gen. Ogden gained lasting
fame. It is scarcely necessary here
to review that crisis, nor give ac-
count Of the magnificent courage
with which it was met and mastered.
The history of the battle Of the
Fourteenth of September, and Of the
events that preceded and followed it,
is as fresh in the hearts and memo
ries of loyal Lonisianians as yester-
days sunshine. So long as the State
lives and its people revere their glo-
rious~ traditions, it is not to be for
gotten, says the Times emocrat.
And so long as it is remembered,
we may be sure that the patriotism,
soldierly courage and the qualities
of leadership displayed by the White
Leagues distinguished commander
will be linked with the victory which
brought order out Of chaos and mark
ed a turning point in the history of
the State. AS a soldier Of the Con-
federacy, Gen. Ogden had served his
people and his cause with signal fdel-
ity and devotion. But it was during
the soul-trying reconstruction period
which followed the war that he found
opportunity to render the service
which crowned his career and made
his place in history secure.
The suggestion Of DR.. Bruins that
the gratitude Of the people whose
liberties Gen. Ogden 50 powerfully
aided to restore find expressions in .
statue Of him, will meet. we trust,
with prompt and generous response.
Already there stands at the foot of
Canal street a monument to the men
who fought and who fell in that brief
but decisive struggle TO free Louis
lana from carpetbag rule. We dare
say there is no Orleanian or Lonisi-
anian who does not take pride in it
and gather inspiration from the mem
cries which it recalls.
A statue of the leader Of those
heroes, the brave and loyal son who
found his occasion in a crisis fraught
with peril to his section, his State
and his race, and rose nobly to it.
risking all and giving all to the cause
which symbolizes civilization, honor
and human progress, should by all
means be raised in the city where
those stirring scenes were laid. Ia
all the history Of her glorious past
New Orleans finds no more inspiring
page than that upon which is in
scribed the story Of the overthrow Of
the infamous carpetbag regime. It is
entirely fitting that 0rleanians should
show forth their gratitude and af-
fectionate remembrance Of that splen-
did and Important achievement BY
erecting. in some Of the eisy's public
places, the statue Of ahe Nan Who
Led.

KELLEY Amt IN It.
PFomlnent Physician Says 4 Much Simpler
Cure for Drunkenness Is Eatlsa Apples.

The eating Of raw apples as a cure
for the drink habit was confidently
recommended by Dr.. Samuel Bailey at
the recent State convention Of Iowa
horticulturists at Des Monies. He
told the delegates that eating apples
will not only abate the appetite
for liquor, but will cure the most con
frmed drunkard if the drunkard eats
enough Of them. The doctor did not
put the apple cure as a theory but as
a fact demonstrated in many instances
within his personal knowledge. He
said furthermore that the appetite
for tobacco is also limited BY eating
apples.
Considering the evil consequences
which the eating of an apple is said
to have brought upon the human race
it is pleasant TO think that the popu-
lar fruit has the property Of exer-
cising an influence on the side of
virtue.
# apples will cure the drink habit
they are the safest remedy that ever
has been proposed. Moreover, they
are ready to eyerybody's hand and
easy to be tried. It should be a task
Of little difficulty to induce those who
need the cure to try them. Many
a man would eat an apple or a
barrel Of apples who would refuse to
sign a pledge.

Strike

Ore has been encountered on the 1000
foot level of the Clermont workings of
the Goldf1eld consolidated company.
This announcement was made today by
General superintendent Finlay, when
that gentleman was questioned as to
the truth of the report that the deep
est workings in the camp had encount-
cred ore.
1--WE have hit the vein in cross
cut from the 1000 foot level said
Flnlay. can not designate this as a
big strike at this time but we have
hit the vein.'
For the last few days, as announced
by the News last week, there has been
feeling that any day might put the
lateral workings from the 1000 foot
level of the Clermont into the ore. as
the miners were nearing the point
where it was figured the vein would
be tapped. That the vein has been
cut proves the extent of the great vein
system tapped by the Clermont work
ings for another 100 feet in depth. and
is further conclusive proof that the
mineralized veins of the Goldfield dis
trict do, go down.
1t is too early at this time to pre-
dict the extent of the new strike or the
richness of the vein. Unofficially the
News is Informed that the vein is big
ger and more highly mineralized at the
1000 foot level than even in the rich
$50 foot workings. II this is the case
the new strike is a bonanza equal to
days, aside from its Importance as
showing what Goldheld operators may
expect to find at depth.-Goldfield

Golden Fraction Bonded

An important deal has just been con
Summated. The Golden Fraction claim
on Chips Flat ridge, adjoining the Ken
ton mine on the east. has been bonded
and leased by George Taylor to Los
Angeles parties and arrsn gements are
being made TO start development on a
vigorous scale as soon as spring opens.
The claim is one of the many loca =
tions made last summer and has had
but comparatively. little development. A
strong ledge, however is exposed, be-
ing 3 feet wide in places and pros
poets well in free gold.
Rich float found along the strike of
the ledge gives possibilities of the ex-
istence Of big pay chute. The geolog
ical formation is similar to the best in
the Allegheny gold bonanza zone. and
with development the Golden Fraction
is expected to take its place among the
prominent young mines of the district.
The terms and price in the deal are
not made public. but are most favor
