The White Pine news. [volume] (Treasure City, Nev.) 1868-1906, 1870-06-16


.FAR-oFF FIELDs.-There seems to be
A restlessness pervading a portion of onr
popnlation, who eyince n decided desire
TO try their luck in other districts. This
IS all very natural. for the human family,
especially on this side of the Continent,
has a strong predisposition to wander.
No set of people have so fully exempli-
fed the truth of the adage about the
rolling stone. We are seeking new fields.
and the further off the gieener they
seem. But where can these discnntented
nomads go to better their condition?
Iarpe cities are filled to OVERLOOKING with
idle and starving people. Money Is tight
everywhere, and remuneratiye employ
ment Is ms hard to be got AZ money. We
henr of good mining districts in every
direction. aud our desire of change urges
us 10 take a tramp. Bnt after all, cal
bono? Every camp and mining zone as
far as ready cash is concerned, IL at
present n counterpart of White Pine.
1t is only getting out of the try-pan lnto
the fire. Of what avail is it TO the miner
10 90 from this District TO another No
man of sonnd and extensive information
doults the immense mass OF metallic
wealth hidden in our hills. 1t now lies
untouched for the reason that we are
without the necessary capital. BIT do
we better ourselves III seeking new Dis
t,iets2 No matter where we mny turn,
we will hesr the same distressing cry.
TIN mines at a distance can not be
worked without capital any more than
IN. mines here. Whit, then, is to be
pnined by the changer The fact Is.
White Pine has one material advantage
over every new district. be 1t adjacent or
far off IL has AS good mines as any
region could have. II has II larger and
more extensive metallic range than any
other mining district. IL Is better de-
welcomed than other mining sections. And
above all il has pissed nearly through
the ordeal of hard times which always
has been aud always will have to be tx
perienced by the pioneers of new regions.
Some people are easily discouraged.
This is especially the case with miners.
We shall never forget meeting "a party Of
miners returning on the road from Mo-
kelumne Hill, in 1919. They were all
disheartened and penniless, and all agreed
that the mines of that rich region were
played out How eagerly we would
now Jump at a chance tn pan out snch
exhausted d~iggings. White Pine will
repent history; aud in less than two
years from the present writing, Hamil-
ton will be the ceuier of u vast aud Hour
ishing popnlation-the entrepot of II

distribute to the world their incompatible
metallic treasures. Do nj 90.
The GFr FURoR.-Since the arrival
here of the Mercantile Library lottery
tickets. ordered by local agents. every
body (almost) that can raise half an
eagle. is making n break for the 500, 900
prize. This is one Of the-if not the
grtndest lotteries ever got mp in This
Country. The great demand for tickets
in this enterprise is based npon the fact
that all tn successful numbers will draw
cash. Everybody understands the snlnr
of round dollars, but j-welry, honses and
other snch lottery schemes are usually
put up at u valuation which frequently
amounts Ia mere delasiun. Inthe Mrr
camille Library scheme there are 62s gifts
in all, amounting 10 $4,000 coin, dis
tributed in sums of from Sl00, 600 down
10 500. Even the lowest git is not To
be snrezed ut; but he who gets the $780,
200, or even one of the premiums rang
ing from Sju. 900 down to SO. 900, will
fnd himself considerably sought after.
We do not believe In encouraging %rafies
or lotteries; but as this is for II worthy
aI...t AL .,.,f.nu lsatltyE1 nv the
State OF California; We should like to see
acouple OF hundred thousand dollars In
gifts fall to the lot of White Pine.
INDEPENDENCE DAY.-rhe coming an
niversary of our National independence
will be the Ninety-F ourth-not the
Twenty Fourth as we were erroneously
made to say yesterday. II the Executive
Committee net with spirit aud energy,
Hamilton will be the tbeater OF rs nne IA
celebration rs was had last year-and
that was admitted by Mi To be a magnih-
cent one. As most OF the scattering
population of White Pin naturally
point towards Hamilton IN festive DC -
sions. we submit tn our mel Sho1rlnS
towns that il would he we'll Ia coneeh-
trate all their influence upon the cele
bration Of I e Day ut the comfy sent,
instead of wasting their hherillty In sep
arate and perhaps arne DEMONSTRATION
in zach burg. 1t would be like making
several bites of n cherry to hold more
than one celebration.

started for that district yesterday to place
men at work upon the mines. The,
took with them supplies and two hun
dred ore sacks, in which To send ten q
fifteen TINS of selected rock TO Sal
francisco to be tested. There are lhrg'
and very rich lodges in Tenn .piute, an
the prospects of II numerous and pros
Porous community there in the near fu
ture are almost certain.
From SILVER PARK.-The stage iron
Silver Park, of the Hatch & KIplinge
line, arrived here about 7 o'clock las
evening. The trip was made in twent
hours running time. The mines in Sill
yer Park look very well, and the peopl
there are hopeful. Both mills nre no.
running. One had stopped for II shoI
hine on account of litigation, but it
now in full motion.
