WEST GRANITE,

The Developments during the past
week have been confined to the Elizabeth
drift, going west. The drift is now in
abont 100 feet, the grade Of ore con.inu-
ing about the same, averaging at times
higher. The width of the vein is from
~ to feet. Ar upraise has been
started. Saturday nights measurements
showed hat they had raised As feet, the
ore showing an improvement in width
and quality. At this point it is ne; rly
$50 feet to the surface, SO the reader G; II
imagine what an extensive stope this will
be to grass Toots-that is. if the ore holds
ont, and it has every indication of doing
so. AS they approach the surface, the
ore may deteriorate in value, but it will
be of sufficient high grade to pay in a
mill of their own. Angus A. Mcdonald,
the manager, is absent from the Burg, or
We should have more information for our
readers. They have considerable water
to contend with and 1t was found i'm
practical to sink; otherwise it was the in
tention to drive down shaft on the vein
and prove up the ore body lower down.
The intention is to ship several carload
lots from this Elizabeth find at an early
date. When, we cannot say.
We note that under not very refined
heading that the St. Louis Republic OF
January l published rumor that the
"West Granite shut down and that an
assessment would have to be made to
procure funds for continuing work" etc.
This is d fabrication cut from the entire
Goth, and We censure the Republic 70,
not being more particular than to allow
themselves to be imposed upon. The
paper is not injured by such statement
but the company is, or at least the stock.
The stock is non-assessable, and no hold
or need have any fear of an assessment.
From the time that JAS K. Pardee pur-
chased the West Granite property, near
ly three years past, it has been in con-
