Alliance Note. T)ie Warm Springs Alliance held a large oen meeting last week which, wan- addressed by P. K. Wood of Lob Angeles, ex-state lecturer and business ugent. He challenged any opponent of the principles of the Alliance to meet him in debate, hut no one had the courage to tackle him after listening to his nutrterly treatment of the financial question.

The Highland Alliance is growing rapidly, five new members being initiated at its hint meeting. It is close to the Ml) mark, which was reached sometime ago by the Warm Creek Alliance. A series of lectures on political economy was recently begun in this Alliance by William IVnn Kogers, president of the (Viunty Alliance, to a class of seventy-tive. The lessons now running in Tne Political Economist are taken as the basis for these lectures and if faithfully followed out according to the plan proposed cannot fail to he both interesting and profitable. The subject of the first lecture was, "The Richest Country in tlie World." Mr.

Kogers had for his subject last Monday night, "The Itichest in the World." His subject for mext Monday night ill lie, "Our Millionaires." The fourth lecture will he "The Concentration jif Wealth," and will he given as a review of the previous lectures at an open meeting, to which the public is cordially invited. The date will be announced hereafter. of adjoining Alliances are invited to attend ull these lectures. Until further notice there will be a lecture at the Highland school house every Monday night. The young people of the Highland Alliance have in preparation a public literary and musical entertainment, the date of which will he announced soon.

Hayseed. Tim Alerting. The Sau Rernardino Society of Call forma Pioneers held its regular meeting in the city ball yesterday, Vice-Presi dent Karp presiding in the absence of I'resident Lord: Vice-President Ho'- eomb, Treasurer Harris, Corresponding Svretary Katz, Secretary Marshal Wixom present, together with Pioneers Sisters Kli.ubeth Dodge, Mary K. Hill; and Prothers Roberds, Stone, Fitv.patrick, l'elter, Rising, Wallace, Janes, Miller, Sutlenlield and Cable. The minutes of the last two meetings were read and approved.

On motion of Pioneer Katz it wus ordered thut all dues he collected. The committee of arrangements on celebration of Washington's birthday and the opening of the fair at Cotton made their report, showing a grand suc cess at such Colton fair for our whole county. Pioneer Katz then read the following article prepared for the Colton celebration. Ami on motion the the suiue wus ordered spread on the minutes: Mr. President, ladies and gentlemen.

It is in response to the committee of invitation that we, the pioneers of San llernardino, ure here today, in order to participate in one of the greatest I events the citizens ot uoiion ever engaged in; henci we trust that the event Will prove to lie a social aim commerciui success. There is a licautiful inaxun promulgated by the fraternity of Free Masons, which reads thus: good und pleasant it is to he where unity dwells." The mnxini is truly symbolized by the reunion of today. It is symlioli.ed in the iM-mingling'with our fellow-man and neighbors on this joyful occasion, and uis.n the stugc of mitigation, namely, The district fair. Hence, it is but fair to say that these social assemblages lire productive to the greatest good. A well-conducted fair has a threefold aspect, namely, the social, the commercial and the industrious usjiccts.

Man is by nature a social Iwing, and naturally loves intercourse with his fellow-man, to exchange Ideas and become more familiar with him. Hence, a tter feeling will spring up. and frequently will ripen into friendship. We cannot deny the hici; that we hold mutual rela tionship in a particular sphere, niitnelv. in the pursuits of inn ferial health and human huppincMs.

Commercially, we are linked together by the chain of commerce, and chained together by the ties of jKilitical economy. A fair or a public exhibition of our native products has a transforming in-thence of new ideas, resulting in the THK WKKKLV COUMKK: SAX BKHNAJMHNO, SATUJiDAY, MARCH 1892. ulmliti.iii of the old and unprofitable practii-es as they U-coine united with the it.igi of human progress. It will instill und invigorate fresh ambition for new for industry and for progress. A liclter medium cannot lie chosen than a practicul exhibition of our various productions.

The character of our products well demonstrate to the novice the nature of our soil. A climate hich tnver rcfusef) to aid our prolific soil during the entire yeitr, and the water facilities, are uneipialed in the state of California. Remember, nature has blessed the inhabitants of Sun Hernardiiiocounty with many generous and precious gifts. Yea, nuture has lavished iiou its valleys and mountains physical beauty and a voluptuous climate well calculated to make thousands of families completely happy. In a time past and gone our Colton friends indulged in delusive phantoms, chiefly due to a metaphysical nightmare.

And while'in the midst of enjoyment let us not forget the anniversary of the father of our country, (ieorge Washington, and remember the concluding sentence of the inaugural discourse delivered at the erection of the monument of Mary Washington, the mother of that illustrious general, tieorge Washington, bv President General Jackson, May 7, We find in the "Memoirs of Mary Washington," by M. C. Coiiklin, the following: "The mother and the smi are alxive all human praise, but the striking examples of their virtues' existence and moral grandeur cannot hut have a sulu-tAry iniluence on our contemjiorurics. May this example be present to our thoughts for the first steji of our children in life. May our latest posterity came here in pilgrimage, as to consecrated spot.

l.et them on touching with their hands this sacred monument remember the virtues of her whose remains it covers und on leaving it be purified in their sentiment und fortified in their piety let them cull down the blessings of heuven on the mother of George Washington." Pioneer Roberds suggested the death and burial of Pioneer Charles G. Hill, and, on motion, Pioneers Holcomb, Hut-tentield and Prown were appointed a committee to draft a suitable sketch in memory of his life and services. The death of Pioneer E. A. Craw as referred to und kind words were sisikeii of liim by Pioneers Holcomb, James and on motion of Pioneer Holcomb, a heartfelt vote of sympathy was extended to the bereaved family.

The pioneers were then called on for their experience, and all contributed much interesting matter. Some told of the noble action of the miners in in sending provisions on puck trains back of the mountains to relieve the destitute emigrants, one train lieing in charge of Pioneer F. M. Slaughter, and one of the persons saved was Pioneer W. F.

Holcomb. Reports from Sisters Carter, Earpand Kelting and P.rother Seely were made ami were favorable. On motion of Pioneer II. G. Cable it was unanimously carried that the city trustees and con ut sunervisors be re quested to repair the fence around the old cemetery used by the city and county tor so many years.

The following letter, written by John: sr. in answer to an invitation from the Pioneers to In- present at the opening of the ('olton fair, ill be read with interest by many. The letter was received some time ago, but was una-1 viiiduhly crowded out To the Old Roy uud Pioneers of San' Rernardino county, Cul. Your cordiul invitation to mii-t you ut Colton on the 'J'd inst. is received, for hich you ill lib-use accept my sincere gratefulness, wnile I assure you that nothing hut a lingering illness of la gripie prevents my doing so.

Nothing would please me so well as to meet you on so grand an occasion as the ojs'iiing of the district fair for the first time in that (to me) memorable city of Colton, made the more sacred for its being on the birthday of the man into whose hands God, in bis wisdom, saw fit to dedicate part of his domain for the home of a free people. Again let me assure you that in spirit I will 1st with you to unite in the initiatory step that shall forever bind San Rernurdino und ('olton in that brotherly and sisterly friendship such us no words can cause to separate. You have grown up ami prosfs-red in union. You ure one people, having like interests, und should work for the mutual gi od of your two cities. In union you have been made strong.

That same union will continue to build you up and draw you closer and closer until the last spike will have been driven and the two cities Is'come one. 1 once roamed the ild untry where now stands your cities of olton and San Rernardino. I sowed grain and reaed it with a sickle where now stands magnificent edifices which like pyramids raise their lofty spires. I planned the founding of your county in the legislature through Jefferson Hunt and managed its segregation from Ixis Angeles county and its re-organization. I helped survey the county metroMihs and selected the hlock lor its public square, and I shall ever congratulate mvself for working for its growth and advancement; and it pleases me to know that the fruits of my lalsir never go backward.

The city of Colton stands where once I owned a truck for horse-racing with the Mexicans of Agua Mansa. Later, during. the hrst campaign ot Mr. Lincoln, used it for a stopping place on my way from Agua Mansa to San Rernardino in the evening fof issuing orders to the lsiys with me, for lighting Republican fires in the chemisal brush on eitherside of the road, as I moved slowly toward the city of San Rernardino with my wagon carrying representative young ladies of eaoh state, to the music of a bass drum played by that valiant patriot Mrs. Mary llighmore, now Mrs.

l'oterell, to whom much credit is due for the victory in carrying the county with eighty-three plurality for Abraham Lincoln. Riverside owes its Is-ing to San Rer nnrdino. It took its life from such men as Hudley Pine, Stewart, and Judge North, whose business intelligence placed Riverside on its feet. Such a rapid march ot progress shows what can lie accomplished by the heroic tew. Jt shows how with industrious hands the people can advance under the shadow of the eagle of liberty.

And while we do honor to Washington we should not forget that inspired and in tellei-tual hero, Thomas Paine, to whom this nation is indebted cocqiially with ashington, whose name will lie associated with this republic with admiration and honor forever. His voice and pen were like a trumpet's blast, sanctioned by the will of God, that gave to the world a new nation. 1 remain, in the common humanity, Jons Rkown Sit.

Itlurk Hunk, Miirungoi Orti (ininil mid Victor Mining IlistrlitU. Since hist writing you I have visited the above camps and found mining developments moving along satisfactorily. THE ROSE MILL A XI) MINK In Morongo district is proving very agreeable to the principal stockholders. The company, under Mr. Wheeler's management, lias employed a first-duns mill man, Mr.

Taylor, and he has made a successful run of their lower grade ores, working the jieiventage up to 85. The Rmse made a clean up highly satisfactory to Hr. Shugart and Mr. WVeler, two of the largest owners. They now have enough of ore out und in sight to run the null a long time.

Smart Watts are now in on their tunnel east of the Rose -Mo feet. They excet to strike a Isnuinza very soon. The Glendoraites, who have bonded the west extensions of the Rose from Miss Lizzie Cristie, have struck a similar class of ore as the Rose and consequently are elated. Armstrong is pegging awav on his carbonate find, lie has out about fifty tons of a good grade of ore. Siinmsler, who is an old pioneer in Lone Valley (now Morongo) district, after heins; away several years, has returned to his first love.

He has been joined by two more ilendoraites und is opening up the old Tip-Top claim. III.ACK HAWK IMsTUU'T. Since the rich strikes made on the Pluck Hawk mines last IVccinlicr, de velopments have been continued and ure showing up wonderfully rich body of ore. I was show bv Cook Leach a large nunilier of assays from their pres ent workings. One particularly struck me as very interesting; four feet of ore in the face of the tunnel, on hat they call their No.

4 ore ImmIv, assayed in gold and eight ounces in silver. This ore IhkIv is now in some distance and has a strong, hcalthv appear ance. Other assays indicate large Isidies of medium grade ores, notably one from a fifteen-foot face on their Santa Fe mine, which gave an average 12.50 in gold und three and one-half ounces in sikcr. This company has some thirty-two claims, about one-half of which have fine mineral showings. Some Riversiders have concluded negotiations with Mr.

Recce on his silver prospects, a few miles northeast of the rdack Hawk. A company has been formed and work will be commenced in few days. Mr. Wright is working on his onyx claim in (iactus Mat. Should the Rear Vally railroad materialize, he will have a vuluuble property.

The company are not advertising me ricnness oi us ores, but common rumor says they are getting similar ore to that which" made the Carbonate so famous. The Greenwood mill (Huntington's) is running on ore from the original Oro Grande mine quite satislactonly, and the company are working twelve or tit-teen men oii the mine. The Oro Fino is working several men and the ore is showing up well. Mavor Jones and Judge iioran nave struck it very rich out near Mojave Junction.
