WHEELING CITY AND MONTANA GOLD
AND SILVER MINING AND TRANSITIONAL
TION COMPANY.-For the information
of all inquirers, and those Interested in
the above entitled company, we state
that majority OF the working capital
of this company has been subscribed,
and the prospects are that all the re-
quired capital will soon be subscribed
that is required by the charter. No
stock has been sold at less thar its par
value; nor has any stock been passed
for anything but cash subscriptions. or
its equivalent, nor will there be, AS
soon as the working capital is sub
scribed and paid in, the managers of
the company will Immediately pur-
chase gold mill and arrange for the
transportation of the same, either by
purchase of "A boat Mt u cash valuation
In stock at par, and employ au able and
efdcient superintendent of works nt
the mines; and such other persons as
may be necessary to operate the
mill and mines successfully
The purchase of gold lodes as made
by this company is on as fair terms as
any person could desire, and is almost
entirely dependent upon the yield of
the same when tested. The company
nave every eNluenCe tnat tEeN are nrSt
class gold irines of Montana. The
parties owning the same are largely
interested as purchasers of stock in this
company; thereby showing their faith
by their works. We have carefully
Investigated the prospects of success in
lode mining operations in Montana,
and are fully satisfied that the prospects
are such rs the most sanguine could
hope for. Quartz mills and superior
machinery have rendered gold mining
IA legitimate and certain business, and
rendered IL as successful as any other
branch OF business; but it requires cap
iial, and none but strong companies
should attempt it hoping success; and
to this fact should be attributed the
failures heretofore experienced in gold
mining. Thus far there have been no
failures in Montana. The fact is, there
is sufficient gold in that country for all
whoSo there properly prenared to mine
it ont. All persons purchasing stock
in this company may have as good
reason to look for, and will receive bet
ter returns therefrom, than any other
Incorporated company in this city. II
is n known fact that the mills already
running in Montana are making to the
stockholders in gold from six to twelve
hundred per cent. per annum on the
amount invested. There is no reason
why our citizens should not take pride
IN the fact that company fthis kind
Is organized here, and should aid in its
completion at an early day.

AT THE business meeting of iron
manufacturers, held in Pittsburgh on

their interests, 1t was determined not
to start the mills at the present time,
and it is now uncertain when they will
commence to run again. We had hoped
that the difficulties which stand in the
way OF running the bar mills would
have been adjusted by this time, but
they have not been, and the owners OF
the bar iron mills cannot run unless
at II loss, and of course they are not GO
ing to do this. An immense amount
of labor is thrown out of
employment, and if matters continue
