Th Pusifb-.
"We, the Republican voters of the
state of Oregon, in convention assem
bled, congratulate the people of the
state as well as of the whole nation on
the unmistakable fact that the dark
cloud of adversity, which has hung like
a pall over our fair land, has been dis
sipated. We recognise that the return
of prosperity is due to the restoration
of the Republican paity to power.
" We are in favor of the maintenance
of the present gold standard; we are
unqualifiedly opposed to the free coin
age of silver and to all other schemes
looking to the debasement of the onr
rency and the repudiation of debt We
believe that the best money in the
world is none too good to be assured by
the government to the laborer as the
fruit of his toil and to the farmer as the
price of bis crop. We condemn the
continued agitation for free silver as
calculated to jeopardize the prosperity
of the country and to shake Jhe confi
dence of the people in the maintenance
of a wise financial policy; we particu
larly condemn as unpatriotic the efforts
of the free-silver agitators to array class
against class and section against sec
tion; we declare that the interests of
all classes and of all sections of our
country alike demand a sound and
stable financial system.
"While we deplore the imminence of
war, we recognize that the country is
on the eve of war, undertaken for the
vindication of the national honor and
the performance of a work dictated by
every instinct of humanity; we declare
that the administration is entitled . in
tins conflict to the confidence and sup
port of the entire people.
"We are firmly attached to the prin
ciples of the federal constitution; we
recognise that representative govern
ment is one of these principles, and we
are opposed to any change in law or
constitution which will abrogate this
time-honored principle.
"We are in favor of retrenchment
and reform in state and county matters.
"We demand strict economy in pub
lic affairs, and the abolition of ail need
" less offices and commissione. :
"The salmon fishing industry, so
fruitful a source of revenue to the state,
should be fostered, and to that end we
favor state aid in the artificial propa
gation of salmon, and their distribu
tion in the waters of this state.
"We affirm our allegiance to the
principles of the Republican party of
tbe United States, as enunciated by the
Republican convention in St Louis in
181)8..' "
"We denounce the fusion party of
Oregon as an aggregation of spoilsmen,
who are ready to subordinate principles
to offices. Each of the parties to this
compact is willing to stultify itself and
form alliances with elements which it
has heretofore denounced as dangerous
and unfit to be intrusted with power;
we declare that good government can
not come from such an alliance."

BIGGEST FIND OF ALL.
A Great Mlae Near Baaanvtlle,
County.
Grant
W. P. Mount, of Susanville, arrived
in Canyon City Wednesday, having in
his possession some of tbe richest and
most beautiful free gold quarts speci
mens ever seen in this country, taken
from his recent discovery, the Sky
scraper mine. The specimens exhibited
were of the pretty white quarts variety,
almost identically the same as taken
from the Vitruemine, near Baker City,
and came nearer being nuggets than
quarts specimens.
"I have known for several months
past that the Skyscraper would, if suffi
ciently developed, become a bullion
producer of no mean importance," said
Mr. Mount, "but the past week, has
shown it to be perhaps the richest mine
on the coast Even prior to the finding
of the extremely rich body of ore oncov
ered a few days ago, tbe normal and
continuous wealth of the ledge waa re
garded by practical mining men as
phenomenal, the returns from samples
taken indiscriminately ranging from
f80 to $350 per ton. April 1 a body of
gold was encountered in the level fol
lowing the ledge, a description of which
would sound moie like fiction than
fact At this point the lively, clear
cut, hard quarts is literally welded and
bound together by the yellow metal,
samples going ss high ss 1150,000 per
ton. From eight ounces of this ore. 25
waa extracted in coarse gold, while se
lected specimens would give greater re
turns. From the result of three days'
stripping we estimate that 130,000
worth of ore will be taken out The
deposit of gold has been traced along
the ledge for a distance of 1.700 feet,
showing an ore chute of very unusual
length, and the ledge ranging in width
from one to foul feet Every particle
of the rock extracted from the com
mencement of operations last August
up to the present time will average
(100 per ton, something unknown in
the history of gold mining tbe world
over.
"It is not a pocket ledge by any
means, as may be surmised from its ex
treme richness, bnt at times the gold
seems to be concentrated in very rich
bunches, though without interfering a
particle with the regular precipitation
of the wealth characteristic of the ledge.
"Negotiations are under way for the
erection of a modern stamp mill of
large capacity, including rockbreaker,
concentrator "snd self-feeder. Just as
soon as the roads are in good condition
the plant will be forwaided to tbe prop
erty without delay."
The Skyscraper is not the only mine
in the Susanville district, by any
means. Messrs. De Witt and McLean,
operating the Hughes group in the in
terest of a San Franoisco company,
have completed their shipment of ore
and are now pushing development work
vigorously snd as soon as tbe roads will
admit they will have a 10-stamp mill.
The ore body exposed by Horace Sloan
last winter looks like a bouquet to a
miner's eye, and is already attracting
the attention of mining men. TJie ore
chute is between five and eight feet
wide, and in the neighborhood of 60
feet long. Milling tests show a free
gold deposit of almost (9 per ton, while
a concentrating test will go lao.
The Gem of the Mountains, owned
by Mr. Blake, of Canyon City, now
bonded to Mr. Mount, though base, is
one of the most promising mining prop
erties of that nature in Eastern Oregon
Development work is limited, but what
has been done is sufficient to demon'
strate that an ore body of prodigious
eise will be unfolded as depth is at
tained, and also that the precipitation
of gold will be greater. The average
value of the heavy base ore is in the
neighborhood of $50 per ton, and the
ledge is fully five feet wide in the hot
torn of the 80-foot shaft. About 80
feet above this ledge is another strong
one, running parallel and carrying
small deposit of free gold, and from the
trend of tbe two ledges they will cer
tainly merge together at no very great
ALASKA SALMON FISHERIES.
Secretary of the Treasury Has a BUI
for Their I'rotectloa.
The secretary of the treasury has
submitted to oonsrwa the draft of a
bill for .the amendment of the laws
now in force tor the protection of the
salmon fisheries of Alaska. The secre
tary thinks that the present laws are
inadequate to meet the exisliug ie
quirements and should be ammided.
The proposed changes are based on rec
ommendations submitted by sgenU
wbo were appointed to investigate the
state of the fisheries, and are as fol
lows: Traps should only be erected under
regulations prescribed by the secretary
of the treasury.
The protection to salmon trout
should 'be withdrawn, as those fish
are said to be destructive to salmon
spawn and fry.
The laws should be extended to ter
ritorial waters so as to prevent the
erection of obstructions in rivers and
streams.' '
No salmon canneries should be erect
ed in Alaska without permission from
the secretary of the treasury.
An annual statement should be made
by all canneries and such establish
ments to special agents for salmon tioh
eriea, and employee of the treasury
department should be assigned to act as
special agents without extra compensa
tion. A tax should be levied upon the out
put of all canneries, salteriee, fish oil
and fertiliser works; and the penalty
for violation of the fisheries law should
be increased from'11,000 to 5,000.

ANIMALS AS MODELS.
8am of the experiences ol aa Art lit In
Sketching From Life.
"Leaves from the Sketch Book of an
Animal Artist," is an article by Mere
dith Nugent in the St. Nioholtis. Mr.
Nugent says: There was an elephant
in the Jardin-dos-Pluneti that would
not pose, unless be were paid for it, and
paid in advance. Then he took pay
ment in buna and pie, but if these wore
not forthcoming, he would deliberately
walk to the farther end of "the enclosure
and turn his hack. The only way to
got a drawing of this big fellow was to
engage some one to feed him mean
while. In the same gardens I saw an
unusually interesting sight one morn
ing. A little aunbear with a large
marrow bone in his shaggy paws was
resorting to all sorts of bear devices to
get the sweet marrow. Suddenly he
lay down on his back, placed one end
of the bone in his Jaws, and with his
hind paws tipped the other end of the
bone so high up that the choice morsel
slipped into his mouth. If the animal
could only have understood the shouts
of approval that greeted this perform
ance, I think it would have turned his
head. In one of the sketches you will
see how this feat Was accomplished. As
rule I find tbe models very good na
tural. True, they keep a sharp eye on
nieforthe first few days, but after
that are generally quite friendly. Of
course, there are some parts of the
business they do not like. The oriole
never was happy when I held liim In
my band for close inspection, but a
beautiful cat which rebelled when I
first plaoed her in a bird cage to keep
her in front of me grew so fond of
being there, and after I finished my
drawings she cried and cried to be put
back into the cage. Intense curiosity
is the great chaiacteristio of animals
when in the studio. They are as much
interested in yon and the surroundings
as yon are in them. This is especially
the case with birds. Leave' the studio
but a few minutes, and these two
legged fellows are hopping into every
thing. Of course they inspect the
paper on which yon have been draw
ing, and the paints, and tbe brushes,
and occasionally vary these" proceeding
by taking a bath in tbe water bowl.

Timidity of an Ulepliant.
Hiding along a road in India, I saw
the following Instance of a big els
phuiit'a timidity, which I venture to
send to jrmi: The elephant, ridden by
a mahout, was followed by a small Mh1
te torrior which, Intent on Its own
affuirs, trotted boslilo its inastor, mak
ing occasional instinctive Investigations
by the roadside after the initnutir of
iUfs, .without particularly noticing
oilier tiaveleia. From the llrst mo
ment the elephant sot eyes on the do
he never butt sight of him, turning dom
aide to side always with " oj
small animal, and hurrying out of his
way whenever he spproauhtitl. The
timidity ol the one and the confidence
of the olber were irresistibly amusing.
