The S. F. B,Aletin, by its repeated slurs
upon mining operations, has excited the ire
of writer in the Call who signs himself
"Miner." He walks into the Bulletin saw
agely, as follows:
The Bulletin of Wednesday contains an article
headed 1.-The moral disease which feet supern-
duce." Two cases of alleged fraud in mining
transactions are cited and with this basis the eu-
itor proceeds to wall the moral deterioration
which feet are producing among our People'
Can there be any man in this community so Ut
terly destitute of reasoning power Us TO be pre)u
diced against the mining interests of the country
bv such piece of ill-natured twaddle. The edi-
tor iufers that because charge OF dishonesty Is
made therefore it must be true. The idea tnat
there can be another side to the story is utterly
nored So little faith has this editor in principles
aud so yacilating are his own, that ne assumes
that mems principles can be influenced by the ma
ture of their business. Honest men will not al
NIT that they can act dishonesty under any CIR,
cumstances. If business cannot be conducted
without departure from principle, CONSCIENTIOUS
men will not engage in it. This cynical anu us
appointed editor is determined to bring all tue
puny powers of his weak intellect to throw Gls
credit on the mining interests of the country, MS
own hostility being the only motive. The B~tIe-
Tin proprietors specialized in stock at high prlces'
and lost their money therefore the mining Inter
ests must be attacked upon every occasion. Inc
BulLeti, has heretofore been owned, soul and BODY
by the mercantile interest. The recent mining
enterprises have absorbed a large amount OF cap
ital, and how are the spectators in merchandise
to hire money as before? There is moral dis.
ease in the community, engendered by "teet"
Mems minds are suffering from 'canker which
is gnawing into their moral sensibiities and this
conclusion is formed from the fact that occasion

custom house fraud; a real-estate fraud legal
fraud, or a rascally printing fraud We were a
simple, honest-trading people who always pald
our taxes and never hired a lawyer to pick haw
in the assessment roll. We pay full taxes on all
our personal property. No class is allowed to
swear that their entire property is less than one
months income, and of course the moral sensible
tiles of this editor are not all shocked. Oh, no
There is no fraud except it be in mining stocks.
Had not the mines better be abandoned! HOW

NEW Observation-Disclosures. Bateman and

with them specimens from new locations from
the Desert District. The rock Is of a very pc
cuiar character, being of dull red cast, and not
much harder than brick which it very much re-
sembles in appearance, and it is filed throughout
with small particles of virgin gold. Some of it
has yielded an enormous assay in this metal, and
a whole ton of it will arrive this evening or to-
morrow morning. and will be crushed at mill,
when it's richness will be fully tested. The lodges
from which this rock was taken are called the
Cleopatra and Mark Antony, and have only been
excavated to depth of six feet from the surface
The Desert District is situated about seventy or
eighty miles from Virginia, and near the sink of
Humboldt and the Carson. 1t is about twenty
miles from the Truckee, twenty-five miles from
the Carson river, and eight miles west of Gibson
g. Bateman's ferry. There is an abundance of
wood within n short distance, and number Of
hot springs within eight miles. These new dis
coveries have attracted q number ..of prospectors
from Humboldt who have organized district,
framed mining laws, and elected a Recorder Mr..
Bateman, who has brought in q quantity Of ore
to be crushed, holds this office at present.
