CENTRA!. POINT HERALD. THURSDAY. OCTOBER 1, 290S. ?k)os! for Prosperity. There are still a few old-time partisan politicians left in Oregon who predict all sorts of dire calamities to the coun try unless their particular candidate is elected president in November, lie he republican, democrat, prohibitionist or socialist, the man who predicts all kinds of evil unless his candidate is elected is, to say the least, not a good booster, and down at Eugene the J booster club has taken the advanced position that such a man, even if he is a presidential candidate himself, is not even a patriot. The Eugene fellows are optimists and they believe, and ex- p ess their belief out loud, that the country is all right and that, no matter who is elected, if everybody will quit predicting calamitious panics, etc., and boost for prosperity, it will continue to be all right and even get 1 letter. In order to impress this bit of optimism on the minds of the people and at the same time brand it as a Eugene idea, they have printed, and are circulating, a little card which Bays: “ The worst of the recent panic is over, the empty dinner pail will soon begin to fill up. Let us talk prosperity and work for prosperity. Either Bryan or Taft will be elected, and no matter which one the majority of the voters choose, times will continue to get bet ter. It is a moral crime to predict a panic, for a panic means poverty, bank ruptcy, suicide and untold suifering. We have recently had enough of it “ Let us not lay it onto any individual. A candidate for office who will predict that if the n.ajority elect someone else there will be a panic, is not a patriot. A politcian or newspaper who will en- ; deavor to create a panic for political reasons should be punished as a crim inal. “ Let us all be patriots and work for j a return of prosperity and times will be good no matter whether Bryan or Taft is elected. Boost! Don’t knock! “ Eugene boosters. “ L. M. TRAVIS, Esq., "MAYOR J. D.

Comutt has recently received a letter and newspaper clippings from his sons, who are interested in mining property at National, Nevada, which read like the early-day stories of the Klondike, except that the Nevada dis trict is a quartz instead of a placer proposition. A clipping from the Win- nemucca Star enclosed with the letter says that S. W. Gundaker recently came into Winnemucca with samples of 1 ore and nuggets from National which are almost pure gold. Samples have already been secured which run $1000 per 12 pounds of rock, and that is going some. The strike was made but recent ly, but already there is a rush of prc s- pectors coming in and it is expected the camp will soon be the liveliest in that state of mining excitements. The National district is in northern Nevada, near the Oregon line. Mr. Cornutt himself is interested with his sons in the camp and he is pretty well pleased with the reports now coming from there.

There are still to bo fouud in Malta a number of small stones shaped and colored like the eyes, tongues and other parts of serpents.
