Piute Courant. it is not generally known, but it is a fact, none the leas, that when the Spaniards laid to ambush the Bough Klders at Gausimas in Cuba the whole plot wan spoiled because one man was too eager, and shot at the head of the column before it got well Into the line of Are. There is a remarkable similarity about the things that have happened in the political world, this week. Whether the Harrlman letter with the attendant discussion was responsible for springing the mine too soon, it is impossible to say. if that discussion had not arisen, political enemies of the administration might not have gotten gay and talked so much. But the fact remains that someone leaked, and about the prettiest plot on record in American politics has been spoiled. It Is alleged that Senator Penrose got extra communicative at a dinner recently and announced there was a scheme on foot, not to beat the President for the renomination, because it is not generally believed he would take the renomination under any circumstances, but to beat hlB plan for getting a free man and a man after bis own heart nominated by the Republican party. rThc details of the plot are a iHtte too explicit and probable to make it seem all talk. It was to the effect that the railroads and big corporate Interest including Harriman, H. II. Rogers and the rest of the Standard Oil crowd had started a fund of 15,000,000 to thwart the President in the next campaign in securing a man for the Republican nomination who would carry out the President's isili-cic- The scheme was to get dele- gates in all the states pledged to Roosevelt on the Arst ballot, and thus presumably pledged to the President's choice after he hud declined the nomination, which it was conAdenlly ex- pected he would do. The program was then to stainiiedo them on the second ballot to Mime man nut ut all of Hie President's choice. It is said that Senator Penrose attended u dinner recently, und to put it in plain language, got drunk and talked too much. The story was heard by one of the friends of the President who was at the dinner, and he promptly related it at the White House. Of course Senator Penrose came out with a prompt denial of his role in the story. After he had denied li thoroughly, it was stated at the White House that hht name had never been mentioned in connection with the matter, nor had the name of anyone else. But the I resident was said to have all the details of the story in his possession, and both he and his real friends will lie on their guard from now on till the next Republican convention against any realization of such a plot. Altogether it is a remarkable story, and one that has been in the air for over a week. It was believed there was something doing under the surface in the way of opposition to the President, and that the railroads were at the bottom of it in revenge for what they considered was ungenerous treatment at the hand of the administration. But that anything so widespread nnd Anhihed in the way of a conspiracy was afoot was not generally credited. There are a good many Republl cans now who say that the President has been deceived and that there is' ito such organized opjiositlon to him as be believes, and the rvowpiI cut. the adniinlstratUm are lng and tapping their foreheads significantly to Indicate something radically wrong mentally. But It t believed none the less that the plot story Is in the main correct, and it has served to put the friends of the administration very thoroughly on their guard. S- THE FIRST PROMOTIONS IN CONSULAR SERVICE. The first, general transfer and promotion In the consular service as the result of the new rules governing that branch of the government has been announced. There are almost 2' in eases, most of them not imixirtiinl, but others decidedly so. Most of them affect men who have been In the service a long time and have earned recognition by their work. It is the beginning of n new regime in the sand will tend to make it more of a life career, and less of a political grab bag. - 3-- Iiln-nia- Imim-ilarie- plows Items 1 holders of the Columbus Con. Checks in payment of the Columbus Consolidated Mining company's divi. dend of 2)c a share have been forIn a warded to the stock holders. letter from Manager Tony Jacobmin accomjmnyinig the checks the statement is made that when the dividend was declared the company had on hand $100,000, and the reason assigned for its not being more is that the roads have been in such miserable condition for the past two months or more that it was ImiiosBible to get much ore to market. The letter also states that there are now 1,200 tons of crude ore and concentrates in the bins awaiting shipment as soon as the roads are passable. As the average net value of this mines product is better than $50 a ton, there is product awaiting shipment than would be necessary to meet the present dividend requirement of $56,707.ti). Concerning present conditions at the property, Manager Jacobsons letter says: New Ore Bodies Opened Up. Since our annual report was sunt out we have opened up a large ore level below the body on the 300-fotunnel. This ore body Is 180 feet long and from two to fifteen feet in width. ' fodt from We have raised sixty-fou- r the 300 level in this ore body, which is of very high grade. Fifteen samples, representing fifteen days' raising, one sample each day, gave the followling average tier ton: Silver, 119 ounces, 8.88 per cent copper, 28.18 ier cent Iron and 12.83 tier cent silica. We level to are running on the 200-foreach this same ore IkhI.v, anil we hope to get it within (he next sixty feet. Another Iniimrtanl strike ha also been made in what we call the Garfield winze, located about 3oo feet in from the mouth of the Columbia tunnel. This winze is down liO feet, and the entire bottom is solid ore, ami, from all appearances, we shall get a large ore body there, and it will lie something new. We expect to sink this winze down to the lion level before drifting. This ore lxirty will practically mean a new mine, as It is 9nu feet away from our main ore body, in wbat we call No. 3 shaft. "It Is hard to estimate just bow muck ore we have in sight, lint we ought to keep up the present dividend rate for an Indefinite time. We have made arrangements for the use of the Continental tramway over which to transport our ore as far as Tanner's Hat, a distance of four miles over the worst portion of the canyon road. This train, which is being reconstructed, is to be completed by May 15. This will give us a chance to send out nil the ore we care to thia coming sunt mer. I have no doubt we shall have transjiortatlnn fad I HU'S right into the camp of Alta before the end of the present year. now-mor- 1 : OFFICERS. in uniiilnisl ration cricles if l'nrl( Joe Catiuon returns front Panama without the comforting assurance that the caCounty Seat, Salt Lake City. success. nal is some kind uf a red-ho- t SALT 3-- ciii-iii- ' cent.
