4 J. j. Sorensen, Of Neeley, informs US
that he has made arrangements with
a Mr. Brint, of Joplin, Mo-, to come out
here to work the Daylight placer
claims on the Sorensen farm. Mr..
Brint will bring machine of his own
invention that has proven successful
in getting the values from the black
sand of the placer claims by a process
OF concentrating and then cyaniding.
The black sand gives values of from
IS to $50 per ton, so placer mining
may develop into quite an industry
in this section. Mr.. Sorensen is also
holding some quartz claims in the
Moonshine section which is showing
up we'll, and he hopes to interest Mr.
Brint in these properties also.

CANDIDATE FOR CONGRESS-

r. NJ. McCracken will be candidate
for nomination for congress on the
Republican ticket again this year. He
made the race two years ago, receiving
a fiattering vote but not enough to
secure the nomination, and he will
again shy his hat into the ring for the
coming primary election.
Il shall be a candidate at the pri-
maries in September for the nomina-
ton on the Republican ticket for con-
gressman from Idaho" said Mr.. Nc
Cracken.
"You can set me down as one who
will, if elected support national prohi-
bition of the liquor traffic for beverage
purposes. Also that l will support the
Legislation now proposed in congress
which contemplates the farmland loan
system. The bill provides that loans
may be made to bona fide farmers up
o $4,000. England adopted the sys-
EN- in Australia some years ago with
he result that some Of our American
armers are going to Australia to make
their homes. We must encourage az
riculture in this country in substan'
tial way, and when a farmer needs
money to carry on his farming opera
tions the government should find som'
way to aid him to get it at low rate
of interest.

SAYS PEOPLE AXE fkIENDE1
Washington, D. c., April 20.
In one of the most remarkable
statements ever made by a president
of the United States, Mr. Wilson went
on record as an advocate of peace
and not of war with eMXico. He de-
clared he would uphold the national
honor and national dignity at any
cost, but insisted that the great mass
of the people of Mexico are friendly
to this country.
The president declared the United
States has no intention of fighting
the people-the representative peo-
ple-of the troubled republic. But
with flashing eyes and square-set
jaw, the president said that Huerta
and what he represented would be
curbed forever by the might of the
armed forces of the United States.
The president made it very plain
that the situation now existing will
call for a hard and fast blockade of
Mexican ports. This will be enforced
Immediately. The army will be held
ready to back up the navy in case the
elements headed by Huerta under
take reprisals.
The president insisted that he had
lost neither patience nor hope, but
he intended that Huerta, whom he
described as a person who "called
himself president" should realize
at once that the dignity and honor
of the United States cannot be trifled
with.
Secretary Bryan said that no steps
have been taken to recall Charge
O'Shaughnessy. All American repre-
sentatives in Mexico have been mott
fed Of latest developments, and the
refuge of the consulates has been Of
fered them in case there are anti
American outbreaks.
