Underground operations at the mine are being steadily pushed, and the ledge looks. better than it ever did before. It has widened to 16 feet in the face and is of excellent quality. The main tunnel is to be pushed along the ledge into the heart of the mountain and cross-cute will be made-so as to fully develop all the valuable ore deposits. In the Spring the mill will be started again. The cold weather in that locality prevents successful crushing during the winter months with the facilities now at hand, but by next winter a series of furriaces will be constructed in and around the mill 80 as to maintain a uniform temperature of the water used in the batteries and+on the overshot wheel. which furnishes the power for the machinery. A Paying Mine, The .Nevereweat mine at Willow Valley in’ this township is paying largely: Nine tons of-ore sent below for redaction paid nearly $300 a ton gross, giving the owners ‘over $250 a ton besides cost of shipment and milling. Forty-five tons of ore recently taken from this mine paid an average of $100 a ton. The Neversweat is owned by a, compary of practical miners who do their own work and have shown great pluck and perseverance in staying by and developing it despite many difficulties and discouragements, The owners of this valuable property are Elisha*‘Hampton, John Goyne, J. J. Lyons aud George True. pa <5 Not the ited Chief. Mr. Loftus, the San Franciscan who went to Sierra county a few days ‘ago to examine a mining property there in the interest of San Francisco stockholders, did not report on the Red Chief mine, as was published. The property which he did examine is another claim on the Red Ledge, and is owned by Californians. The Red Chief is an Eastern company. The work at tho latter claim is entirely under the supervision of Professor L. J. Lewis. A Thief interrupted. About eight o’clock Monday evening aman entered the yard of Wm. Woll’s place on Coyote street and was about toclimb atree in which some chickens roosted. Mrs. Wolf heard him scouting around,and went out to investigate. The fellow, who had evidently labored under the delusion that there -was nobody at home, took to his heels when the lady appeared. Death of Wm. Buddle. The Union says: Stephen Budidle, who is a resident of Austin, Nevada, has received news of the death of his brother, William Buddle,at Mt.

Notes Gathered at the Seat of Government. Wasutnaron, D. C., Dec. 4, 1888. Eprror Transortpt—Repiesentative Samuel J. Randal] came to Washington on Saturday. He has almost entiraly recovered his health, but owing to the orders of his physician, he will not attempt for some time to regularly occupy his seat’ in the House. The defeat of the free traders has put Mr. Randall back. into his old place as leader of the Democrats in the House. The stranger as he sits in the gallery of the House of Representatives has no difficulty in naming the politics of each member as he enters the Hall. The Republicans still wear the smiles they put on the day after the election, and the Democrats all look something like processional pall bearers at a funeral. Some men will have notoriety, even if it is nesessary to make asses of themselves in order to obtatn it. One would think that Representative Oates, of Alabama, who led the filibusterers in their attack on the Directtax bill last spring, had gained enough notoriety at that time to last him at least one year, but it seems not. He has announced himself as a special champion of a movement to disfranchise the negro. This man talks about legally depriving the negroes of their votes as if it was the simplest thing in the world to do—almost as easy as they now illegally do it in his own and southern States. The idea is almost ‘00 absurd to 'be given even serious consideration by anybody. Aside from any question of right or wrong that may be involved, the Southern politi cians would resist the proposition from motives of policy. 1f adopted it would deprive the South of about one third of ils present representation in the House of Representatives and in the Electora) College. The reason given for this most remarkable and extraordinary proposition is, that the negro as a class is ignorant. That assertion is, unfortunately for the poor negro, a true one. But if the negro is to be deprived of his citizenship on account of his ignorance, why not carry the idea to its logical con¢lusion and. deprive the hoodlums of New York and other large cities of their right to vote? The negro is ignorant because he has had no opportunity to be otherwise. The Democratic -hoodlums of New. York are both ignorait and vicious from choice. The same man will assert. that the average negro of Alabama is more ignorant «r less capable of intel ligently casting his bullot than the average hoodlum of New York or any other large city, And yet there is not a Democrat in the country who would dare to make a proposition to adopt a constitutional amendment depriving the hoodlum of his vote. Why? Simply becuse the hoodlum always votes the Democratic ticket. As long as the South persists in sending such men as will exist in Southern politics, Mr. Oates, and men of his caliber, may as well make up their minds that as long as this republic, exists the ‘negro will be a citizen thereof in every sense of the word. This is an age of progress, not of retrogression. It is generally understood here that if Representative McKinley is a candidate for the Speakership of the next House, Representative Butterworth wiltenot be. As the question now stands it is the East against the West; the eastern members mostly favoring Mr, Reed, of Maine, and the western mein bers dividing their support among Messrs. Cannen, of Illiaois, Burrows, of Michigan, and McKinley and Butterworth, of Ohio. It ig altogether a friendly rivalry, and any one of the gentlemen named will make un excellent Speaker,and one that will give satisfaction to Republicans of every section. The Democrats, or rather a large number of them, will endeavor to giye the complimentary nomination for Speaker to Mr. Randall, as a slight compensation for the treatment he has received at the hands of Mr. Cleveland, Carlisle, Mills, .and other free traders, during the present administration. Forty-Niner. Weilssbein—tettieson. Tidings: Sunday evening Jacob Weissbein of the Grass Valley banking firm of Weissbein Bros. & Co. was united in marriage to Misa Lertha, daughter of B, Gettleson, a San Francisco wholesale dealer in footwear.

Sam Small Kicks Up a Breeze Among the frohibitionists. © Epitor Transcrirt—I wish you would publish the following account of the very sensible remarks made by Rev. Sam Small the other day at a meeting of the Temperance Union held in New York. Yours Truly, Locat Option. WHAT SMALL SAID, “The Quick.and the Dead of Prohipbition’* was the subject. In the course of his speech Mr. Smull said: When a great battle has veen ended the surgeons go forth to search for the quick and the dead. The quick may in many instances be saved, but the dead are past hope. The duty of the third party is to examine that part of the field where i: fought and to search for its qnitk and its dead. I am ylad it was a kind of sham battle, and we bad a chance to. eliminate the arrant cowards of the party. We had too many fuss and feathers and esthetics, This is an age of practical politics and we must let people see that we can do something. Why was it that more men gathered uround the Hoffman House last night than voted the Porhibition ticket in the State of New York? It was because something had been done in which those men were interested. We sometimes “pitch into”? newspapers because they xive more attention to baseball than revival and reigious meetings. But if those fellows just went out to the field and zabbled at eath other and then marched back to the city the newspapers would soon stop noticing them. Chey do something. Lhey knock the inside out of a ball ;-send it over the left-field fence and make a man slide sixteen feet toa base. The peuple are interested in that. But we have been indulging simply in prophetic wind. Chose who do it hereafter might as well go and whistle in a graveyard. When Sam Suall goessnto a ‘fight hereafter, he is going to do sumething. Somme one is going to get hit, and some one is going to get hurt. I don’t believe in National Prohibition politics. Hereafter I am going to have something practical about my Nee ring about my vote and about what I do. Principle is worth more to me than all the parties that ever tramped the globe. ‘Che liquor dealers don’t care tor party. They elect the man that will favor their cause, of whatever party he may be. .I don’t believe in letting the devil’s crowd get ahead of me on a proposition of common sense. We Prohibitionisis have held the balance of power iu fifty-two Congressional districts, and we might have used our power to have men put into office favorable’ to prohibition. But the Prohibiion party has constantly. ran independent tickets, instea! of join. ng with some other party, and ag a consequence we have no representation. e@ have also held the ballance of power in several of the States, but we have lost our opportunity becau~e we have placed Party above principle. When we begin to do something the’ newspapers will be talking about it, the politicians will be hustling on account of it, and we will begin getting some victories. Nationally, I think all the flowery, roseate ideas of having a Prohibition President, and our marching up to the White House and drinking his healih in pure cold water, will not be realized for a long time. Econom ¢ questions, stich as immigration, monupolies, strikes and labor, I believe are to be the imminent questions for the next dozen years, The pulpit and the press are waking up to the fact that the Government must kill the saloon, or the salvon will kill the Government. ‘The country is becoming Germ nized and beerized. If, a8 Prohibitionists, you can join with other parties, join them, and God wiil bless the combination. It is better that the saloon should go than that the Prohibition party should come. The remarks caused a great commotion. Small. was denounced by the officers of the meeting, while many of the auditors applauded himy When the officers were through condemning him, he again took the stand and guid: This is a question of privilege, and I have a right to rixe and answer, I haven’t a word of what I said to teke back, I was never less spleneticoin my life. I have been sustaining systematic defeat for twenty-five years. If it breaks aeury friendship I have in the party and leaves me entirely isolated, I will stand by my opinions. I will walk out of this ‘hall and eut of this city, back to the wilds of Georgia, if you please, upholding these views. A Broken Leg.

Underground operations at the mine are being steadily pushed, and the ledge looks. better than it ever did before. It has widened to 16 feet in the face and is of excellent quality. The main tunnel is to be pushed along the ledge into the heart of the mountain and cross-cute will be made-so as to fully develop all the valuable ore deposits. In the Spring the mill will be started again. The cold weather in that locality prevents successful crushing during the winter months with the facilities now at hand, but by next winter a series of furriaces will be constructed in and around the mill 80 as to maintain a uniform temperature of the water used in the batteries and+on the overshot wheel. which furnishes the power for the machinery. A Paying Mine, The .Nevereweat mine at Willow Valley in’ this township is paying largely: Nine tons of-ore sent below for redaction paid nearly $300 a ton gross, giving the owners ‘over $250 a ton besides cost of shipment and milling. Forty-five tons of ore recently taken from this mine paid an average of $100 a ton. The Neversweat is owned by a, compary of practical miners who do their own work and have shown great pluck and perseverance in staying by and developing it despite many difficulties and discouragements, The owners of this valuable property are Elisha*‘Hampton, John Goyne, J. J. Lyons aud George True. pa <5 Not the ited Chief. Mr. Loftus, the San Franciscan who went to Sierra county a few days ‘ago to examine a mining property there in the interest of San Francisco stockholders, did not report on the Red Chief mine, as was published. The property which he did examine is another claim on the Red Ledge, and is owned by Californians. The Red Chief is an Eastern company. The work at tho latter claim is entirely under the supervision of Professor L. J. Lewis. A Thief interrupted. About eight o’clock Monday evening aman entered the yard of Wm. Woll’s place on Coyote street and was about toclimb atree in which some chickens roosted. Mrs. Wolf heard him scouting around,and went out to investigate.

Notes Gathered at the Seat of Government. Wasutnaron, D. C., Dec. 4, 1888. Eprror Transortpt—Repiesentative Samuel J. Randal] came to Washington on Saturday. He has almost entiraly recovered his health, but owing to the orders of his physician, he will not attempt for some time to regularly occupy his seat’ in the House. The defeat of the free traders has put Mr. Randall back. into his old place as leader of the Democrats in the House. The stranger as he sits in the gallery of the House of Representatives has no difficulty in naming the politics of each member as he enters the Hall. The Republicans still wear the smiles they put on the day after the election, and the Democrats all look something like processional pall bearers at a funeral. Some men will have notoriety, even if it is nesessary to make asses of themselves in order to obtatn it. One would think that Representative Oates, of Alabama, who led the filibusterers in their attack on the Directtax bill last spring, had gained enough notoriety at that time to last him at least one year, but it seems not. He has announced himself as a special champion of a movement to disfranchise the negro. This man talks about legally depriving the negroes of their votes as if it was the simplest thing in the world to do—almost as easy as they now illegally do it in his own and southern States. The idea is almost ‘00 absurd to 'be given even serious consideration by anybody. Aside from any question of right or wrong that may be involved, the Southern politi cians would resist the proposition from motives of policy. 1f adopted it would deprive the South of about one third of ils present representation in the House of Representatives and in the Electora) College. The reason given for this most remarkable and extraordinary proposition is, that the negro as a class is ignorant. That assertion is, unfortunately for the poor negro, a true one. But if the negro is to be deprived of his citizenship on account of his ignorance, why not carry the idea to its logical con¢lusion and. deprive the hoodlums of New York and other large cities of their right to vote? The negro is ignorant because he has had no opportunity to be otherwise. The Democratic -hoodlums of New. York are both ignorait and vicious from choice. The same man will assert. that the average negro of Alabama is more ignorant «r less capable of intel ligently casting his bullot than the average hoodlum of New York or any other large city, And yet there is not a Democrat in the country who would dare to make a proposition to adopt a constitutional amendment depriving the hoodlum of his vote. Why? Simply becuse the hoodlum always votes the Democratic ticket. As long as the South persists in sending such men as will exist in Southern politics, Mr. Oates, and men of his caliber, may as well make up their minds that as long as this republic, exists the ‘negro will be a citizen thereof in every sense of the word. This is an age of progress, not of retrogression. It is generally understood here that if Representative McKinley is a candidate for the Speakership of the next House, Representative Butterworth wiltenot be. As the question now stands it is the East against the West; the eastern members mostly favoring Mr, Reed, of Maine, and the western mein bers dividing their support among Messrs. Cannen, of Illiaois, Burrows, of Michigan, and McKinley and Butterworth, of Ohio. It ig altogether a friendly rivalry, and any one of the gentlemen named will make un excellent Speaker,and one that will give satisfaction to Republicans of every section. The Democrats, or rather a large number of them, will endeavor to giye the complimentary nomination for Speaker to Mr. Randall, as a slight compensation for the treatment he has received at the hands of Mr. Cleveland, Carlisle, Mills, .and other free traders, during the present administration.

Sam Small Kicks Up a Breeze Among the frohibitionists. © Epitor Transcrirt—I wish you would publish the following account of the very sensible remarks made by Rev. Sam Small the other day at a meeting of the Temperance Union held in New York. Yours Truly, Locat Option. WHAT SMALL SAID, “The Quick.and the Dead of Prohipbition’* was the subject. In the course of his speech Mr. Smull said: When a great battle has veen ended the surgeons go forth to search for the quick and the dead. The quick may in many instances be saved, but the dead are past hope. The duty of the third party is to examine that part of the field where i: fought and to search for its qnitk and its dead. I am ylad it was a kind of sham battle, and we bad a chance to. eliminate the arrant cowards of the party. We had too many fuss and feathers and esthetics, This is an age of practical politics and we must let people see that we can do something. Why was it that more men gathered uround the Hoffman House last night than voted the Porhibition ticket in the State of New York? It was because something had been done in which those men were interested. We sometimes “pitch into”? newspapers because they xive more attention to baseball than revival and reigious meetings. But if those fellows just went out to the field and zabbled at eath other and then marched back to the city the newspapers would soon stop noticing them. Chey do something. Lhey knock the inside out of a ball ;-send it over the left-field fence and make a man slide sixteen feet toa base. The peuple are interested in that. But we have been indulging simply in prophetic wind. Chose who do it hereafter might as well go and whistle in a graveyard. When Sam Suall goessnto a ‘fight hereafter, he is going to do sumething. Somme one is going to get hit, and some one is going to get hurt. I don’t believe in National Prohibition politics. Hereafter I am going to have something practical about my Nee ring about my vote and about what I do. Principle is worth more to me than all the parties that ever tramped the globe. ‘Che liquor dealers don’t care tor party. They elect the man that will favor their cause, of whatever party he may be. .I don’t believe in letting the devil’s crowd get ahead of me on a proposition of common sense. We Prohibitionisis have held the balance of power iu fifty-two Congressional districts, and we might have used our power to have men put into office favorable’ to prohibition. But the Prohibiion party has constantly. ran independent tickets, instea! of join. ng with some other party, and ag a consequence we have no representation. e@ have also held the ballance of power in several of the States, but we have lost our opportunity becau~e we have placed Party above principle. When we begin to do something the’ newspapers will be talking about it, the politicians will be hustling on account of it, and we will begin getting some victories. Nationally, I think all the flowery, roseate ideas of having a Prohibition President, and our marching up to the White House and drinking his healih in pure cold water, will not be realized for a long time. Econom ¢ questions, stich as immigration, monupolies, strikes and labor, I believe are to be the imminent questions for the next dozen years, The pulpit and the press are waking up to the fact that the Government must kill the saloon, or the salvon will kill the Government. ‘The country is becoming Germ nized and beerized. If, a8 Prohibitionists, you can join with other parties, join them, and God wiil bless the combination. It is better that the saloon should go than that the Prohibition party should come. The remarks caused a great commotion. Small. was denounced by the officers of the meeting, while many of the auditors applauded himy When the officers were through condemning him, he again took the stand and guid: This is a question of privilege, and I have a right to rixe and answer, I haven’t a word of what I said to teke back, I was never less spleneticoin my life. I have been sustaining systematic defeat for twenty-five years. If it breaks aeury friendship I have in the party and leaves me entirely isolated, I will stand by my opinions. I will walk out of this ‘hall and eut of this city, back to the wilds of Georgia, if you please, upholding these views. A Broken Leg.
