County Clstk Uoy Bartlett needs no other recommendation (or re-election than his record as an officer. lie Is tin moit thoroughly and universally satialact ory county clerk that ever filled thatofllce In this county and if other counties ever secure more perfect officials, they are fortunate indeed. In addilioa to the accuracy with which hs attends to every detail of his work, he is courteous and obliging tosveryons snd at all tines and is never worked or rushed into a condition of crankiness. He is an un tiring and faithful worker in the affairs of his ffice. Nominated by the republic ans, he is elected by votes from all parties. Third terms ars rare and out ol the usual order, but so also ars county clerks like Roy Ilartlett and the two should go togstber. May 2 ) is the dais set for the evacuation of Cuba by United States troops and the machinery of government will be turned over to the Cubans. In spite ol opinions and assertions to the contrary, this govsrnment is proceeding stsadly and with as much dispatch as Is prudent, towsrd the fulfilment of its pledges in regard to Cuban independence. It Is doubtful I if there is another of the so called great nations In all the earth that would, of its own trie will relinquish a piece of territory once In it clutches. It shows that tbs government of the United States has a conscience and a ssnse of right in more than the ordiosry measure among nations. Id this re gard, as in many others, it Is the best in the werld, and the people should appre ciate the (act and encourage the spirit. Senator Mark llanna has, it Is said, dreams of the republican presidential nomination in 1804. The dream will in all probability nsver become a reality. The senator Is one of those who are far stronger in conventions than in else tions. In his case it would be an easier matter to be nominated thin elected. Roosevelt, on the other hand, might eiperlsncs difficulty in conveatlon, but in the election would sweep everything before him. Mark llanna is In many respects a very remarkable man, lie is a man of great strength and ability. Aa a public man, bs has been maligned past alt reason and until the public, tired ol the' continual abuse which was heaped upon him, Investigated the man and found that he was not nearly so black at hs was painted. Then, in a sort of reactionary feeling, It took him Into somewhat higher favor. In these later days, when demsgnguns Indulge In the wild abuse of llanna which at one time would have evoked cheers, the public turns away with a feeling il weariness. It has been an Involuntary admiration for llanna for standing unmoved and unbleuched sgainat the fierce storm of abuse that was heaped upon hiin until, to a great extent, he overcame it. Yet the Idea of llanna aa president Is entertained very glngorly in the peyular opinion, llanna, while he possesses manv of the qualities which a piesident should have, yet slaads as the siponent of institutions which the American people would regret to see become absolutely douunent. lie is identified with the unleellng spirit of cold commercialism and ol political machinery and methods which to say the leaat, are subject to criticism, lie does not diacetu, as Roosevelt so plaiuly does, tbsl the obligations between man and man reach far beyond the limits of the question uf dollars and rents.

Hydraulicklnf Continues. Although spring baa arrived with her warm days and cloudless skies, the placer miners of the many Josephine districts still keep on their rubber boots snd continue to dig up the little yellow grains. The heavy, rains of last week, snd those previously, so thoroughly soaked the ground, and supplied the creek a and streams that the hydraulic mines hsve yet a good long run ahead. Many ol the larger mines ol tialice, Illinois and Grave creek, will operate steadily till June, and some will be able to run with ressrvolr head until July. In spite ol the tardiness ol the season, the placer mining season for Southern Orsgon this year has been exceptionally good. It is estimated by thine who know, that the output of placer gold (roaa Josephine county this season will be GO per cent greater than that of any season in the past. This means ampin prosperity for Grants Pass, the (iueen City of the Rogue. The Granite Hill Strike. Prof. W. H. Hampton, of the Colum bia, returned a lew days ago from bouse creek where he bad made an exami natioa of the Granite Hill mine and strike. He confirms the flattering re ports that have been made concerning the recent discovsry at this mine. The ledge has been uncovered to s depth of 130 lest and has widened to five feet. Much of the rock lairly glitters with Irre gold particles aside from carrying high values in sulphurets. Tbe bulk of the rock will run Into the hundreds per ton.

Two 5-stainp Hammond mills and a quantity ol other machinery has ar rivsd at the Grants l'ass depot and is being conveyed to the Kureka mine, ol the Soldier creek district. The Eureka mine is another ol the Southern Oregon quarts propertiea, which by systematic and thorough development, has proved itself to be a mine nf vast promise and magnitude. A few years ago the I'tueke was bought by Kareka, Cal people fur $J7 ,000 cash down. These people more rsvsntly bonded it for a much greater sum to the Victory Oold Mining Co , of Chicago, The latter-named com pany iscoaiised f a number nl wealthy ou enterprising men, ami an. .Ik tium the Eureka they also own the Victory hydrenlic mine, ol Cow creek canyon, j and other miuimr nrooerii.. in s.,.. ,.,. i Oregon.

"1 know of no other mine in this section that shows a greater hdv ol oreeanying high values from wall to wall." The Eureka men made a failure at working the mine, merely from the (act that they equippe-l it with the wrong ' kind of mill. They installed a roller i mm and il was soon battered up and put out of Business by the hard, tough Nil 13 ! quartz. Roller mills are good only in porphyry or decomposed quart..

She assumed the character of "Katy" the dairy maid, and receivid a vigorous encore which mani leted the appreciative reception by the audience of her solo, tho "dairy maid's song." "William" the tenor, was por trayed with ability and spiii; by Oeorge Cramer. Tne duet by "William" and "Anna," "1.0, the Clouds aro Iireakin" was one of the best numbers of the can lata'. "John," the liars, was portrayed by A. K. Voorhics. (Extreme modest) forbids any comment.) The part ol Knipkins, the city duilu was very abl) taken by V. 1. Cramer, and much amusement, as well as pleasure wai afT iriled In his portrajal ol ihe greenest possible specimen of the genus. About 40 voices carried tho choruses wiih ac curacy and vigor, their commendable work reflecting a great deal of credit on the thorough truiniag received undei the directornhip ol II . C. Kinney. The success of the cantata was furthered in an immeasurable degree by the perfect work ol the accompanist, Miss lielle Iiohinson. A second rendition of "The Haymak ers" is to be given on Wednesday even- TraJncd Animtxla. For the past 15 years the name ol Norria A Howe has been a household word from Ihe Atlantic to the l'acific coasts.
