lowing note to J. W. Perkins in his
auto when he started homo ward in the
evening from the captain of the pro
fessional men's team, K. E. Kelly:
Kelly Requested a Bide.
"My Dear Perkins:
' Your familiarity with the good book
will readily enable you to call to mind
the parable of the Good Samaritan, and
in this connection permit me to suggest
thnt without the gate is a wayfarer
whose limbs falter with fatigue, and
whose feot are sore.-' and afflicted, ayo
even as was Job, and who halteth upon
the wayside in sore fatigue and afflic
tion as one who hath borne the brunt
of battle and dire vicissitude, and ver
ily 1 say unto yon that if there be
sufficient of that oil which fatteneth the
purse of John the Rocky and which
putteth so much scenery beneath thy
forty-horse chariot, thou should pick up
this spent ojid battered limb of the
bnttery and deposit him at his gate.
"Most sincerelv, KKfJV."
WATTERSON ON PROHIBITION.
MINING NOTES.
( Louisville Courier-Jaumal.)
There nro undoubtedly prohibtionists
who call themselves democrats, as there
are democrats who think themselves
prohibitionists. Hut tho idea of prohibi
tion is at variance with all the ideas
and tenets of democracy. Xo man can
be a prohibitionist and remain a demo
crat. Prohibition is of the very essence of
Puritanism, federalism and republican
ism. Iti s laiil in the belief thnt the
government may regulate .the personal
life and private affairs of the citizen.
It claims that through Bumptuary edicts
nnd a protective tariff men may be leg
islated, at the will of the party in pow
er, into millionaires and nngelH, church
and fitate being interchangeable and
Berving as convertible terms.
Democracy meets this theory not mere
ly with proof of its fallacy drawn from
history and human nature, but with an
alternative theory of free will requiring
the complete separation of church and
state.
The whole prohibit ion movement in a
scheme to revive tho prescriptive and
ruinous doctrine cf church and state. In
tho south its animating purpose has been
to keep whisky from the nigger. Rise
where in democratic communities it is a
scheme to promote federalism. Puri
tanism and republicanism. Democracy
meets it with th-se plain projtosals:
FjrMt Prohibition does not it never
has nnd never will prohibit ; on the
contrary, it degrade both the people
and the law; it promotes smuggling, ex
tortion and adulteration : it breeds both
hypocritrs nnd lawbr.-nkern; n- there
fori?, that which may not be effectively
repfrossed, may be widely regulated. and
restrained.
Second Local option, each commu
nity to be the judge of its own want
and needs the doctrine of home rule
has been effectual wherever it hns been
tried, and is as near a restriction of
the drink evil as legislation can pro
vile. ThirdAll sohenies ,f leg'italtion
hnaed on religions agitation and hysteri
cal uprisings mae not only for bad
government, but have f..r their ultimate
obleet the abatement r.f individual lib
erty and the nieendancy of a union
of tyrannous clericalism and corrupt
demagog, which in all nges nnd conn
tries has drngged religion, morals nnd
jatriotiwi through incalculable wrong
i. to certain ruin. ,

Weed's property. They may run it on
to Morrison and DeXure & Burton
mines.
Burtou & DeXure are employing 10
men at their mine in Quartz valley.
They are developing their property on
correct principles nnd at the same time
making it pay for the work . When
they get rendy they will have a property
that can be w rked from the bottom up,
economically nnd profitably, and they
will get all there is in it.
The workmen who are driving the
tunel on Michael Waeker's big prop
erty just west of Vrekn are not yet
through the blind ledge which they
struck about ten days ago. They were
making for the largo dvke known to be
ahead of them when they encountered
a ledge running in an oblique direction
tu rough it at an angle and has not yet
reached the foot wall, although they are
in the ledge uonicthine over ten feet.
The rock shows well in tho pan, but it
nna not been nssayqed. The nrooertv
certainly looks like it would he some
thing big.
FARMERS ALL VOTED TO
PAINT THE STATE WHITE
Farmers in many counties throughout
the stnte are happy now because the
counties in which they livo have been
added to tho dry column, and no liquor
can bo legally sold there as soon as the
result of tho local option vote can be
put into effect. On the other side there
are many people in the cities who are
mourning hoenuse the farmers have
their cause for rejoicing.
Results of the last election show that
throughout the state wherever there
was a contest between the wet and dry
forces, almost without fail the vote in
the cities and towns had the balance
on the wet side, while tho rural dis
tncts cast their lot with the anti sa
loon people. The reason for this eoudi
dition has been sought by those who
hnvo made some study of the local op
tion question, nnd several answers have
been given.
Tt is argued that the nien of the
towns and cities desire the saloons to
remain because the licenses cut down
the expenses of the city government.
Anollier reason advanced is that the
saloon is such a common thing to a man
of the city thnt he pays but little atten
tion to it, nnd so does not notice its
evil effects to the extent usual with the
man from the country who pays occa
sional visits to tho citv.
