THE FIRST ORE SHIPPED.

p. d. Kearney stopped over in Orc
vile Friday last on his way to Che
saw from his home near Tonasket.
Mr. Kearney owns one of the best
mining properties in the Chesaw dis
trict, which he has hung on to for the
past twenty years, spending upwards
of $4,000 of his own money in pros
pecting and developing. So far he has
got nothing out of it but is sustained
by abiding faith that eventually the
holdings will make him rich. Mr..
Kearney is not novice in this mining
game Undoubtedly he and his brother
Will, now deceased, were the first
men who ever profited from quartz
mining claim in northern Washington
Away back in 1888 and 1884 the Kear-
ney Brothers owned the Old Dominion
mine situated near Colville, the ore
from which netted them thousands Of
dollars. The ore was so rich that 1t
would stand wagon haul from Col
vile to the railroad at Spokane Falls.
the freight charges to the smelter, and
ore had to be hauled long distance
to reach a smelter in those days, and
leave revenue that marked the boys
as blooming capitalists at time when
ready money was scarce and few Of
us could boast of much more than
insured living from day to day. To
meet Pat on the street one was sure
to hear the rattle of twenties, espec-
tally if the meeting occurred immedi-
ately after the receipts from an ore
shipment had been received. That was
ia period when we all were young OPP
timistic, active hopeful, caring not
| for the morrow, and failing to take
advantage of opportunity.

ity, and the man with punch Is sure
to win out. Saturday we were told Of
a rancher on Nine-Mile, who, seven
years ago. homesteaded upon a piece
OF land that would hardly be rated as
second class. After paying his filing
fees, all he had In the world was IL
cents in cash, and ten cents of that
was Immediately spent for tobacco.
Matches were thrown in, and the
cheering influence of nicotine aided
to soften the pinch of poverty and en-
courage effort. He skirmished around,
got enough work to raise a small cash
starter, and commenced improving his
land, that scores of other land hun
ters had passed up in search of some
thing better. Today that rancher could
sell out and clean up $4,000. That is
far from a fortune in this age of rO-
tund bank rolls, yet there are few
lines of endeavor that one could ven
ture upon without a nickle of capital
earn living for seven years and then
clean up $4,000 accumulation.

H. w. Bragg tells the farmers in an
other column where they can supply
themselves with the best agricultural
instruments in use. Mr.. Bragg has
been engaged in the implement bust

so that any order can be promptly fill

should be, when farmers are looking

Hon. A. J. Splawn, of North Yakima
died at his home Friday last. Mr..
Splawn was one of the oldest pioneers

friends who will sincerely mourn his
death. He was III Oroville only few
weeks ago and at that time was in
apparently excellent health. He was

an important part in the building up

A MINE AT LAST.

1t looks very much aC though Fred
Neal had at last struck it after years
spent monkeying with mines. Mr..
Neal long ago figured out that the
quickest way to get ahead in the world
Is to secure a mining property that
would pay. Securing paying mining
properties in this country, where fail
ure has been the rule and not the ex-
ception, is a pretty difficult task,
with the chances altogether against
the searcher, especially If he be shy
of the wherewithal to do extensive
development. Mr.. Neal was in that
class, and to get rich out OF mine he
had to find one that would bring
returns from the grass roots He
engaged in many ventures along
that line, and in every case
was doomed to disappointment until
he secured the o. X. Now is looks as
though his dream was to come true
and for one, we are glad of it.

and they were so well pleased with
the appearance of the town and the
evidence of speedy growth that Mr.
Cudworth picked up four lots. There
is no better evidence of the attraction
of Bremerton lots as an investment
than the fact that every person from
this locality who has personally in
spected the ground, and there has
been many, has not hesitated minute
after their return in closing a deal
with Mr.. Rowley, agent for the Brem-
erton realestate in this county.

Washington, July 21.-The draft for
the national army is completed. The
great task of determining the order in
which the registrants should be called
up for examination was begun at AS
o'clock Friday morning when No. 259
was drawn, and was kept up continu-
sously until early Saturday morning,
when the last number came out Of the
bowl. In all 10,500 numbers were
drawn, but it is not likely that men
holding numbers drawn after the first
1000 will be summoned before the
boards for service in the first army
According to the officials in charge,
the first 1000 numbers drawn repre-
sented more than a million men.
The draft was invested with all the
dignity and sOlemnity becoming so i'm
portant an event, and was witnessed
by distinguished company. The first
eight numbers were drawn respective
ly by Secretary of War Baker, Senator
Chamberlain of the senate military
committee, Congressman Dent of the
house military committee, Senator
Warren and Representative Kahn,
ranking minority members of the SEN
ate and house military committees;
Maj. Gen. Tasker II. Bliss. acting
chief of staff of the army; Maj. Gen.
En6ch Crowder, provost marshal Of
the army; and Major General Mccain,
adjutant general of the army. After
the first eight numbers had been drawn
the regular tellers took hold. and
worked through until the long task
was completed.
In only small number of the larg-
est districts will the numbers above
few thousand affect registrants. OF
the 4,557 registration districts
throughout the country the largest has
something over 10000 numbers, while
the smallest has only about 1856, and
the average is about 5000. AS the
drawing proceeded, 157 numbers were
withdrawn before one low enough to
affect the smallest district came out.
1t was 126, placing 4,557 men number
ed 126 on their local lists as 157th in
order of liability.
The following list shows the num-
bers In the order in which they were
drawn. The first number in each case
represents the order in which the sec
ond, or red-ink registry, number was
taken from the bowl. Four numbers
are given in each line, beginning with
the first number, which was drawn by
Secretary Baker.

According to labor leaders in this district the chief bone of contention is the question of wages and it is intimated that if the Miami scale is granted the men will all be back at work within twenty-four hours. On the contrary, we find that in the Globe Miami district where the Miami scale prevails the employees are on strike for long list of demands. not including wages. Truly, Consistency, thou art a jewel. ; The same strike conditions prevail in Bis bee where employees receive the highest wages paid in any mining camp in the world and a dis interested onlooker is compelled to the opinion that for some motive, certainly not patriotic, there is state wide conspiracy to curtail the copper production of the state.
