Cook Retuse to Recog= nize the Usual Order, BeAtiior, Sopt. 10.—[Special to T Ben.]—The Gage county democratic con- vention was called o meet at 11 o'clock today, and at about that hour the delogates cougregated I the auditorium. No secrot had boen made of the fact thata fight be- tween tho Gook and anti-Cook factions would ensuo, but mobody expected that the result would bs a genu- ine row. he anti-Cook efoment opened the fight by nominating Judge A. Hazlott as temporary chairman of the con- vention to which position he was elected. Immediately thereafter George L. Platt was elected temporary secretary. On motion Judge Hazlett proceeded to name n commit- tee on crodentials and it was right here that the fun commenced. Cook and his followers refused to respect the action of the convention and proceeded to nominate another chairman in the person of George Marvin, editor of the Democrat and candidate pre-eminent for the Beatrice postmastership. Procoeding at onco to the rostrum occupied by Hazlett, the two shook hands similar in cordiality to the hand shake of prize flighters just before the struggle, and at once both attempted to ad- dress the convention, Maryin finding it useless to attempt to hold his own against the oratory of Hazlett and the enthusiasm of the anti-Cook dele- gates, suggested that the convention ad- journ. Thereupon the Cook contingent withdrew from the hall, leaving the anti- Cook orowd in full possession. Judge Haz- lett, Judge Hardy and other well known democrats thereafter addressed the remain- ing assembly, setting forth the beauties of democracy, when conducted properly, but denouncing the manner in which” the party had been handled in the county by Cool. The temporary organization was made permanent and the following nominations made: Chairman central committee, Dr. C. P. Full; secretary, O. P. Fulton; assistant secretary. G. L. Platt; county officers, J. W. Bridenthal, treasurer; O, Fulton, register; . W. Barnhouse, clerk; L. Wilson, sheriff; H. C. James, judge; J. B, High, superintend. ent public instructlon; Dr. A. L.

Bovine, Newton Spark, Goorge Pace, C. E. Beinert, Charles Palmer and Sylvester Fisher. The total number of dele- gates entitled to seats in the convention was 106, of which the anti-Cook element had sixty-eight. The convention, after thanking Judge Hazlett for the masterly maner in which he gll‘elidudover the convention, adjourned sine 0. The Cook faction held a meeting thisafter- noon and nominated the following county ticket: A. L. Adams, register; W. T. Gore, treas- urer; A. K. Smith, county clerk; W. L. Wil son, sheriff; F. M.

John Dwyer was made secretary of the county central committee. T'he excitement among the local democrats has not subsided and and will not till after the state convention, The anti-Cook crowd filed certificates of nomination with the county clerk at 280 p, m., and claim this will entitle them to be vlaced on the ticket as the regular domo- cratig nominees.

GREAT INVENTION. 1t Promiscs to Bring Wealth to Many a Miner in Idaho. Borsg, Idaho, Sept. 10.—An important placer mining invention is reported from Bingham county. A man named Taylor has invented a simple apparatus which success- fully saves the flour golg which exists in such enormous quantities throughout the entire length of the Snake river valley. The machine is callea the sanded board machine. It consists simply of a grizzly and a sluice box. The bottom of tho sluice box is constructed of boards nailed on like weather boards on a house. The bottom is painted, and while the paint is yot wet it is generously sprinkled with coarse sand. When the saud to be worked is washed over this sanded and riffled bottom with a gentle stream of water, the black sand carrying tho gold with 1t packs on the rough bottom, This machine has been 1n operation near Blackfoot and two men cleaned up from 30 to 350 o day. These aro actual results, the gold having been sold at the Boise office afier being soparated from the sand 1 a quicksitver bath.

Calvin, superintend- ent of the Idaho division of the Union Pa- cific. is president. The machine costs less than $200 and will be within the reach of multitudes of men of small means. Thore is room for thousands of them on the Snake river alone. The prin- ciple is entirely new, and it seems s though the problem of saving millions of flour gold olong the streawm had at last heen solved, As is 80 often the case with important discoy- eries, the invention isso simple that its very simplicity is surpriring, — BRETT HAS ESCAPED, OMeers Fallod to Get the Man After Se- curing the Warrant., John M.
