Washington Just Waking Up.

ment that threatens to overthrow
 the old Senate oligarchy, Whel
 Iowa voted for the progressiv
 policy, official Washington tool
 great consolation from the fac
 that two stahdpatters were reno
 minated to Congress, When Con
 gressmon Hull was deeated there
 the party leaders called the fgh1
 8 draw because the progres
 siyes failed to defeat Walter I. lSmith:. When the standpatters
 met in Milwaukee and passed a
 resolution to defeat La Toilette,
 offical Washingto regarded that
 defeat as already accomplished
 and conplacently entered the Ohio state convention to sound
 not only the keynote of party
 regularity, but the requiem, also, of the progressive movement.
 Then came the news from Kansas, with the intelligence that such able and conservative regu- lars as Scott, Miller, Ca4derhead and Reeder had follow Congress man Hull to private life. And California followed Kansas with the report that three more valu-. able members of the national or ganization had been eliminated, including McKinlay, the brilliant orator and defender of regularity and party solidarity.
 But it required the New Hamp shire to cause official Washington to forget entirely the Ohio state 1 convention; the resolution of the Wisconsin standpatters and the victory of Walter I. Smith in Iowa. In the light of the loss of congressman in Iowa, four in Kansas, three in California two in Michigan and one in Wiscon- sin, together with the loss of Bur rows from the Senate. official Washington at last regards the as "ominous," as theyI | say, in Kansas. I
 The resolutions from Wisconsin must now be checked out as load paper" the Ohio state platform has lostits ring and seems sadly put of tune with the rest of the country even with Vermont. Against all the losses there is not ] single gain anywhere to cheer lie dismal outlook from the Washington standpoint.
 Official Washington is always he last to comprehend that move nent of any kind is in progress. Otherwise it would not have been o blind to the movement for the 'quare Deal. There would have lave been no broken@party pied .es to.explaiil; no Aldrich- Payne 'ariff Law to defend; no 'omin- us situation to face. When ficial Washington was fairly rowding itself last winter to do 7hat the special interests want d it to do the whole country ,oked on in amazement at its razen. stupid action. Now Wash 1gton is looking on in a state on panic at the answer the county to the conduct of 1e Washington statesmen.
 But anyway, it knows now lat there is. a movement to over lrow the Senate oligarchy and le House machine. And Wash  lgton seems to be surprised to arn for the first time that is recisely the purpose of the move lcnt. It is too, much to hope, owever; that Washington will ,mprehend why the the country ants to do anything of that nd until, the movement itself scomes a matter of ancient his ny.
 The Washington idea is just lat far heh.ind the living, nov g active sentiment of the rest
 the Nation. And it is proyer- ally and chemically so.

GET IN YOUR PETITIONS,

The coming week will the close of fling papers for
party nominations Most of the petitions for county offices
have already been filed with the county clerk While there
is ample time vet which crcae petitions for signatures
it is we'll impress upon candidates the individuality of
putting off the presentation of the papers until the last day
They must bear in mind that the mere leaving of the
papers with county clerk is not tantamount to filing the
same-it is merely preliminary STEP and does not
sarily follow that they will be fled The clerk has his duty
to perform in relation thereto 1t is his business carefully
examine the papers and the signatures thereto attached and
see if the law substantially complied with In of any
material discrepancy he required to refuse fling until
the objections have been This is where the danger
of delay in If the petitions not offered until the
last moment and inaccuracies discovered which bar
to filing there would be time left within which make the
required amendments consequently the candidate would be
left out in the codshu off the primary ballot of his party
through his neglect to get his papers in time To
avoid the possibility of disappointment this line nomn
ating petitions should be filed at the earliest possible
moment from on-the sooner the better. The waiting
game has nothing in its favor at this late stage.

BOOMERANG TACTICS.

Our democratic friends have started in the local
vass on peculiar and for them very inconsistent line Of
policy The between candidates of opposing parties
are fairly drawn The contests between rival
candidates of the party for the respective nominations
But for all this is waited that efforts being
made up prudces for party purposes the basis Of
issues have been dead and buried for twenty years past
AS general proposition voters naturally disposed to
frown upon such advised Efforts unless the matters
fered nvove the integrity of the candidate his fitness
for the position sought Moreover the attempt
from the dead past should be dstastefu democrats
particularly who not slow protest against waving the
crimson garment this late period People extremely
touchy when appealing sectaran preudces in
trying make these ghosts of the grave rend
bitterness and prejudice Party necessity cannot aud will
not be accepted In justification of such conduct While these
crude attempts at doing politics should be and will be
generally condemned regardless of partysm from strictly
party standpoint the republicans have to
plain. They look upon this democratic move bunder
of the kind feghted only with disaster them selves
Like old rusty gum the discharge of which is apt do
more execution behind than in 'front.' this weapon will surely
prove boomerang 1t is we'll for the ultra political partisan
to remember that the average takes little stock in his
extreme methods and efforts enforce them will work havoc
only in the house of his friends.

active and prosperous town in the
state. In those days the far-famed
Plymouth Consolidated was in opera
tion. This property comprised the
Empire and the Pacific mines which
sdjoined. Alvinza HAYWARD became
the principal owner and was a most
vigorous miner. At one time he was
the principal owner of the Empire
mine. His ore shoot was good but it
unfortunately, for him, extended over
the end line into the Pacific. This was
embarrassing, to say at the least, but
Mr. Howard was resourceful man and
soon found way out of the difficulty
he went over the line into the Pacific
after the ore and took out a very large
amount of gold He then proceeded 70
acquire control of the Pacific mine
disposing OF his interest in the Empire.
He soon thereafter discovered" the
trespass and promptly brought suit
against the Empire company for the
value of ore taken from his mine, the
Pacific. After long suit at law the
Empire company turned that mine
over to Hayward in settlement of the
suit, and the two mines were then
consolidated and worked as one pro-
perty. 1t was worked to depth of
about 1900 feet and was said to still be
profitable when it, like the Eureka, at
Suffer Creek, took fire, since which
time the mine has been idle, for 20
years.

Republicans should be wary about falling into traps laid
By democrats Political oceseekers naturally peer weak
opponent a strong This may not be commendable
from patriotic view point but it is partisanship all the
same 1t infrequently happens that an aspirant for
Office will endeavor manipulate things the other side
as to weak nominee the opposite ticket This is
much easier under the direct primary plan than under
the convention system especially where there ndispos
ton to volunteer candidate Any tendency of democrats
to fix up republican politics should be discouraged in
way vacancy the republican ticket is much to be pre-
rred to the nomination of concededy weak and vulner
able candidate We don't have play into the hands of the
enemy in that fashion We don't to load up with dead
weight for the sake of filling up the ticket.

FAMOUS MINES
Old Mining Sites Hold
Many Interesting
Tales

Speaking of the passing of once
famous mines, w. H. Storms in the
Pacific Miner has the following con-
corning some of the idle mines of the
county.
At Suffer Creek, in Amador county,
the visitor to the town looks with
wonder at the great blue black dumps
at the side of the road as he rides
down Suffer Hill. Ali is quiet and
idle now, the buildings are gone and
no one is about. Only the massive
stone foundations and rusty old engines
and boilers are left to mark the site
of one time activity and wealth. This
is the famous Consolidated Eureka
mine, the greatest of them all, with a
record of $40, 900, 900, and said to be a
good mine still. 1t was worked to a
depth of 2100 feet, and was still pro-
fitable, but the timbers in the lower
levels took fire one unfortunate day
and the water was turned into the
workings to extlngulsh the nre ana IL
has never since been taken out. This
is the story of the old Eureka 1t is
owned by Mrs Hetty Green, of New
York, said to be the richest woman in
the world, but for some reason Mrs
Green seems indisposed to re.equip
and reopen the famous old bonanza.
At Amador City the great Keytone
mine has produced, it is claimed, over
SIT, 900, 900, but like others, it is idle
to-day Recently an eastern company
overlook to work it but was unable to
raise the money necessary to its pro-
per development in depth and the pro-
perty was closed down with an excel
lent prospect for long continued law
suit.
Over at Plymouth, near the north
side of the county, all is as quiet as in
farming community, yet, at one
time. Plymouth was one of the most

A Modern King
Lear In Kansas

At the Soldiers Home, at Leaven-
worth, is an old man, passed 80 years
of age, who was once very wealthy.
When he decided he was too old to
further attend to business he divided
his property between his two daugh-
tiers on an agreement that they keep
him until he died. The usual thing
happened AS soon as they got hold
of the property they kicked him out,
and he went to the Soldiers Home
where, with the $40 month pension
he received, he is living contentedly

The most powerful street lamp in the
world, the high pressure gas lamp late
ly set up opposite the Aldwych skating
rink in London, emits a light of at least
$500 candle power. This is three times
the candle power of any other gas light
in England, more than ten times that
of powerful arc lamp, and nearly 300
times that of the ordinary incandescent
lamp.
The "Carbic" cakes made in York
shire are designed to give improved
lighting by acetylene, and consist of a
mixture of graduated calcium carbide,
sulphur and sugar compressed into
cylindrical masses. The carbide being
surrounded by protective covering,
that is proof against dampnesss of the
air, decomposition takes place only in
contact with liquid moisture. The sur
face reached by the water is only part
carbide, and the acetylene is not evolved
at the usual excessively high rate, but
is given off more gradually and evenly.
The lime formed falls away freely. In
the special generators the carbide cakes
are suspended in a cage, and the press
ure that forces water up to them is
governed by the gas itself, so that gen
Grafton is automatically adjusted to
consumption. A feature of the system
is the washing of the gas by passing
through water and its publication by
chemicals The cakes save waste and
make handling easier, and the purity of
the gas and regularity of pressure give
clear white flame, that Is free from
haze and does not clog the burner.
A practical method of electroplating
aluminium is claimed by Berlin firm,
and durable plated aluminium ware is
expected to become common in the near
future. In the many previous attempts
the plating has peeled off in a short
time This has been found to be due to
the presence of film of oxide on the
aluminium, and a simple process of
removing this has insured the produc
ton of good and permanent coatings.
Some plated aluminium spoons were
boiled eight hours in strong caustic
soda solution, then allowed to remain
in the cold solution SO hours more.
Protected by the plating the spoons
were unframed, but in spots intention
ally left uncovered the aluminium was
completely eaten away. 1t is estimated
that this test is about equivalent to
washing household articles with soda,
etc.. for 10 months to two years.
The light of the sun has been esti-
mated by M. Nordman, French ply
sicist, to equal $780, standard candles
for each square centimeter of it's sur
face. Vega and Sirius were found to
have the great luminosity of 5000, 900
candles per square centimeter, but; on
the other hand, reddish Aldebaran, has
a Brightness of only $4,000 candles, and
Rho Persei has dimness as low as
1000 candles.

FIRST RAIN OF SEASON
Shower Visits All Sections of
Southern California Ex-
Cept San Diego

The weather man received the sur
prise of his life yesterday when 1t
rained. The first gentle fall of the
season visited all sections of Caljfor-
MIA, with the exception of San Diego.
1t is credited with having done no
harm, and 1t will bring the green on
the hills. The weather man believes
the storm moved in from the ocean
and lost itself in the interior.
Up to o'clock yesterday morning
o2 of an inch of rain fell in Los An
geIes, while .03 inches fell after that
time. The total rainfall to date is 10
of an inch. Figures last year at the
weather Office in the Central building
show that .S2 of an inch fell up to
this date.
Los Angeles, as a result of the
shower, will have cooler weather,
brisker winds and few clouds. From
now on rain may be expected at any
time.
Reports from Pasadena show that
06 OF an inch of rain fell yesterday.
Riverside received quiteslsa shower
BATH, Redlands barely received a few
drops. Fresno received ,.2s Of an inch.

depended on to pay for the property

You never had an opportunity like
