Importau; Mining survey.

SILVER lily, NOV. ltlu, 1904
EDITORS GOLD hiLL News 1t has long
been matter OF sUE ?':5e 10 practical miners
and mining engineers who have examined
the mineral resources of this State, that u
exhibiting such resources had not been pur-
sued By the parties most interested. The
unrivallcd mines of Nevada have not yet been
properly introduced to the foreign capitalist.
To do so, it is necessary that they be exhib-
tied in connection, as well as in detail, that it
may be seen at glance how closely they in
rerlace our hills and wales in continuous
belts, whose courses, however sinuous, aye
still evident to the eye of the scientific and
practical man.
Again, while the capitalist who seeks TO III
yes. is anxiot.s for the most ample general
information, he is not the less so for even the
most minute details, but which are not to BE-
had how then can we wonder at his diff
dcnce when we consider how many have been
Gespoiled of their all, for lack of knowl-
edge" There is one very efficient means of
preventing this, and we are glad to learn that
an opportunity will be immediately afforded
US to apply remedy, which mining compa-
MES, who feel an interest in having their sew
eral claims to confidence and patronage
brought before the public, should be studious
to enjoy. Captain VIM. Burgoyne, Mining
Engineer, and Metallurgist Of twenty-five
years standing, is about to originate thor
uugh survey OF the entire district from hence
to Virginia City. This survey is intended to
be very complete one, and will embrace
general linear surveys OF each mining dis
trict, as also underground surveys Of the
several mining claims now working, and such
of those at rest as may solicit notice. The
trend or course Of each ledge on the surface
will be delineated. The location Of each
claim, and the contour lines best adapted to
reach it economically, will be shown when
required, and any, special notice sought for
which does not initiate against the general
design, will be attended to promptly. 1t is to
be- hoped that all who can will furnish the
surveying party with all the inform alton they
may possess which might be of value in the
furtherance Of this grand design.
Truly yours, SILvERDoM.

The Harvest of 1864.

The large amount OF agricultural labor
necessarily diverted from It's ordinary en-
ployment BY the war has naturally caused
great deal Of solicitude as to the effect on the
produce Of the present harvest, and reports !.
were actively circulated that it would fall very
far short indeed of the average yield these
reports obtained confirmation from the long
continued drought and the ravages of the
chinch bug in various parts Of the country.
until they became to be generally believed,
and it was set down as settled matter that
the crops Of the present year were very de-
fcient.
The fact, therefore, is very important, to
which we referred last week, that the reports
of the Department Of Agriculture give such
accurate and specific information as removes
entirely the common apprehension on this
subject, and encourage the conviction that
when the crops are all gathered in and n bal
ance struck between the yield in the different
sections, and of the various descriptions Of
grain and roots, there will not be any det-
cheney whatever. We have just had the OPP
portunity Of CT nversing with an intelligent
gentleman, residing at Des Moines, in Iowa,
who has had the means Of 4 very extensive
observation of the crops in that State, and he
reports that they we're never so large as they
are this year. He had examined carefully
the actual condition of affairs and found that
wheat, oats, Indian corn and sorghum, wonld
each produce an immense yield. OF corn, he
spoke with special enthusiasm, which, both
in quality and quantity, would be unprece-
dented.
The reports from Wisconsin and Illinois
are also in the highest degree satisfactory.
Wheat will be quite an average, and the yield
of corn we believe will be very liberal. We
NAV thus expect that notwithstanding the
immense drain upon the labor Of the country
which the war has caused, the quantity Of
food produced will not be diminished, and
consequently our exporting power will not be
lessered, fact which must strike European
economists with surprise, who will thus learn
that we can continue the war without any
sensible diminution Of our resources-ln
other words, that we are receiving accesslons
Of strength TO an extent equal to our expen,
diture Of strength in the war. This fact Will
demonstrate more strongly than anything yet
presented the elastic power of the nation.
What hope can there be of exhaustlng peo-
pie that can abstract ttco millions OF their
iaborers without causing any sensible effect
in the staple productions Of the country:
This fact, which Of course is most encour-
aging to every monetary and commercial in
terest at home, will be felt to have great sig
nihcance in Europe-it is sort OF argument
that even the London Times can appreciate.

REBEL FINANCES.

A certain class of the community, gen.
orally those who have for the past three
years been endeavoring to destroy the gov
eminent, have great fashion of decrylng
the government currency. They talk
about filthy rags" and loudly denounce
"Old Chase's paper mill" We desire to
call their attention, first, to the fact that
the rags" turned ont by that paper
mill !" have relative value upon their
face to gold, at the present time as about
one to two. They have never held, lower
value than about 40 cents on the dollar,
and in all human probability will never
see as low figure again. With those
rags" one can walk INTO the market to-
morrow morning, and with a five dollar
greenback, buy half as much merchandise
as he can with five dollar gold piece.
Where those "rags" are the common cur
rency. the citizen has fully twice as many
of that kind of dollars as he had gold dol
lars before "Old Chase's paper-mill" went
into operation. Secondly, for the benefit
of these rag despisers, we will read few
lines concerning the state of the currency
in those rebel States, for whose indepen-
dence these loathers of greenbacks do so
earnestly pray to the Devil, the God and
Father of rebels. We quote from the
Richmond Enquirer of October Sth:
Money has ceased to be a stand of value
in the Confederacy. The pronissory notes
Of the Government cannot buy supplies or
labor. Great manufacturers hold out such
inducements to purchasers who will pay III
produce that even the stringent orders of the
War Department., forbidding detailed farmers
TO barter their crops for Indispensable ma
chinery, have become powerless. Mechanics
refuse to work for anything but provisions.
Teachers demand pittance in eatabIes or
small fortune in treasury notes. Worst oil
all, Government itself offers an immense
premium on all taxes paid in kind, BY assess
ing provisions furnished for that purpose at
the highest market rates. 1t floods the coun-
try with certificates of debt" etc.
That is pleasant state of the currency,
we don't think. 1t is true that the class
of persons whom we have spoken of as
deriding the national currency as "worth-
less rags" have not, in the circle Of our
acquaintance, been those who could have
purchased any great amount of the
trash" even at the low figure of forty
cents, and the Government is not loser to
any extent by their bearing of its cur
rency. They do, however, have the pow
er, with their persistent gable, to annoy
citizens who have faith enough in the sta.
bility and soIvsncy of the nation to be
very glad to take its currency at its cur
rent gold valuation. The Enquirer lugu-
briously asks, What is to be the upshot
of this condition of affairs" Wish to
God these Copperhead croakers would go
to Richmond and tell the editor-and
when they get there, stay.

Rerolution avn the COTTON Trnhc.

When the rebellion iIaugurated itself, the
loss of cotton was regarded as an unmixeG
.and irremediable loss. The world wanted
cotton, and what could satisfy the want
WHAT could prevent foreign intervention
what meet our own requirements The re-
bellion was % a great extent based upon cot
ton, and cotton would eventually overpower
patriotism, iniernitiJnll comfy and every
supp Irtiny reason for right. This was lead
Ing argument at the commencement of the
civil strife, but thus far il has not proved
itself In addition TO the large supply then
on hand, India, China and other regions have

BER1AH BROWN BEGGING.

Beriah Brown has been playing the
game of bluff" for long time with hi
treason-min. the Democratic Press; but
the election has called his hand, and when
he comes to a showdown" behold he
hath "no pair He confesseth to impe-
cunosity. He gives mournful and rather
uuinteresting biographical and historical
sketch of himself and his paper, and the
immense efforts he has made to unite and
harmonic the Democratic party, and
says:
THAT his efforts have been crowned with
abundant success, is apparent III the unity
and harmony with which Democrats worked
together through the recent canvass who had
been heretofore bitterly divided by local and
personal issues.
We don't see it. II the Democracy"
can, so much the better for Beriah. He
is in bad pecuniary fix. AS business
operation he confesses the P,ess won't do:
THE paper is no speculative enterprise,
nor has it ever been burden to its friends or
the party. The publishers have contributed
over $1,000 in public documents and extra
work during the late canvass, for which they
have received no remuneration. For the last
three months they have circulatedover 81, 0Ou
sheets week, large proportion without
pay. Instead Of being sustained by contribu-
tons, the proprietors Of the Press have con-
triouted more in time and money to the cause
than any ten Of the wealthiest Democrats
upon this coast, and it is their firm purpose
Pm no r,.skl L..
ard or Whatever cost, so long as they are per-
mitted to do So" ...
II Beriah tells the truth (Which is no
good bet, the wealshiest Democrats on
this coast" had. better sense than to be-
lieve his prophecies of a, Copperhead VIC
tory, and kept their money for a better H.
vestment. Hesays, further:
"Under the prescription upon business meg
a Democratic paper cannot be made self-sus-
tanning but BY its Subscribers, and We put it
to Democrats Of the city and county-not as
a personal favor or contribution to US per
sonally-as a duty and honorable obligation,
to tighten our burden by extending our circu-
lation."
What commentary upon the princi-
pies Of paper, is the admission that bust

RUBY .S1LvER.-Last spring or summer If
a person was fortunate enough to find piece
of quartz containing ruby silver and take it
on Main street to show it, he would soon
have an eager and anxious crowd Of specsa-
tors around him, looking upon it with wonder
and amazement, and anxiously trying to as.
certain where such rock came from. But by
the recent rich discoveries on Central and
Union Hills, together with the further. de-
velopment Of the most Of the old locations,
have rendered it so plenty that it is no longer
regarded as, a curiosity. Ruby silver can
now be seen in nearly all the mines that have
