SEARCHLIGHT REORGANIZATION
The New Directory Composed of
Leading Mining Men.

A change has been made in the direc-
tory of the Searchlight Gold Mining
company, and in the reorganization of
the board of directors some of our best
known and most successful mining men
have become identified with the COM
pany, which owns the Searchlight
group of claims, adjoining the bonanza
Sunshine mine in Camp Floyd mining
district
AS a result of this change all of the
old directors have resigned their posi-
tons and parted with their interests
with the exception of Scion Spiro, man
ager of the Ascheim Mercantile COM
pany of Park City, who will continue
with the company.
The personnel of the new board is as
follows:
President, Hon. r. c. Chambers.
manager of the Ontario. mine; vice
president, John Dern, president of the
Mercur Mining company; treasurer. j.
J. DAILY, of the DAILY and Daly-WeSt
mines, Park City; and these, with John
Beck, president of the Bullion-Beck
Mining company, and G. W. Miles, con-
stitute the directory Of the Searchlight
company, and, in addition, Simon Bam-
berger has been appointed secretary of
and will act as general manager for
the company.
The new board met yesterday to con-
slider a proposition to prospect their
ground with a diamond drill, and if,
upon consideration, the plan appears to
be a feasible one, work in this direc-
ton will be commenced within a few
days.
The capitalization of the Searchlight
company is placed at 10000 shares of
a par value of $40 EACH the stock being
fully paid up and non assessable, and
no personal liability is attached to the
stockholders; aQd Of the capital stock
the board has been authorized to set
aside and issue $4,000 shares at 81 per
share for working capital, and Of this,
we understand that a large portion has
already been placed in the east and
abroad.
Mr.. Miles who has had much to do
in the reorganization of the Search
light company, is to be congratulated
in being able TO associate with him in
this important enterprise such promi-
nent men as those mentioned above,
and we Will add that their names alone
are a guarantee that the proposition is
a gilt-edged one, and worthy of the
careful consideration of anyone desir-
ing to get in on the ground floor IN
mining matters.
Mr. Miles. who claims England as
his native heath, has had large exper-
fence in mining in New Zealand, Aus
tralia and California, and it is his in
tention to spend most of his time at
Sunshine in the direction of the work
on the Searchlight group.

and believe that this will be a dis
tinctively mining year throughout
Utah.
For two years w. H. Ste,hl and ]. L.
Maginnis have been developing the
Magnet group on the south fork of
North canyon in Peepstone Mining dis
triot, and success has crowned their
efforts, for they have uncovered a body
of ore which they claim goes higher
in gold values than does the Mercur
ore, and as soon as the weather viii
permit it is their intention to resume
work in the driving of a new tunnel.
The adjoining ground has all been To-
cted recently by men who believe
that the new district will be possible
rival to Camp Floyd.

THE GOLDEN GATE MILL.
To Be in Running Order by the
Middle of May.


General Manager G. H. Robinson, of
the Golden Gate mine, at Mercur,
has been in close consultation the past
few days with interested parties with
the result that yesterday he was able
to make the announcement that mill
for the Golden Gate had been decided
upon, which is to be ready for work by
the middle Of May.
This plant, which is to have a capac-
lty Of 500 tons of ore per day. and
which will be the largest works of this
character in the west, will use
teaching process that is especially
adapted for the treatment of Golden
Gate ore, the formula of which is a Sc
cret that is closely guarded by its
originators
The plans for the plant are now he
ing made, and before long work will
begin in excavating for the foundation
for the structure.
Another important feature connected
with the building of the mill is the fact
that Captain ]. R. Delamar intends to
put in new water system, and The
Herald is authoritatively informed that
work in this direction will begin as
soon as the frost is out of the ground.
possibly within a month
Inc erection of the mill and the put
ting IN of new water works means
much for Mercur and the camp will
enjoy renewed impetus from these two
enterprises.

THE BINGHAM COPPER CO.
Makes It's Initial Shipment of Con-
centrates To-Day.


Manager o. B. Hardy, of the Bing-
ham Copper company. came in from
Bingham yesterday and reports that
the company VIII make it's initial ship
signment consisting of two carloads
that are valued at about $3.50 to 500
per car. This product comes from the
lowest grade of ore contained in the
mine, and for a week or two the ship
ments will average one or two cars
per day; but after fifteen days the out
put will be more than doubled.
The company is now working about
twenty men, and ore can be mined
from five different places. Work in
the Starlus tunnel is progressing and
the ore values are increasing with the
depth. Mr.. Hardy, who returns to
Bingham this morning, is elated over
the prospects for the mine.

/ The statement in our Washington dis
patches yesterday that Senator Marion
I Butler. the chairman OF the populist
/ national committee. IS playing a game
Z OF politics. and that he does not in
tend 10 encourage fusion between
I democrats and pOpulists except on
terms favorable TO the populists. justiies
I the conclusion that the democratic ticket
isn't going TO get a very hearty support
from the populists unless Mr.. Watson is
made the democratic nominee for Vice
President on the democratic ticket.
There are reasons for thinking that the
Chicago convention believed that its work
would be so satisfactory 10 a great ma
jority Of the populists that it would be i'm
possible for the populist leaders 10 hold
their organization together. In other
words. the platform and ticket were made
with the hope and belief that the popuiist
party would be absorbed by the demo-
cratic party. That would have been the
case II the populist national convention
had Endorsed the Chicago ticket. The
populist leaders, however. were altogether
too shrewd 10 be caught in that way
They had no objection to Mr. Bryan and
so they accepted him. but they refused
10 accept Mr.. Sewal. They named their
own candidate for Vice President and said
TO the democrats: We will accept your
candidate for President provided you &C
cept our candidate for Vice President
They were very shrewd. They knew II
their terms were accepted they would
have about as good reason for saying they
had captured the democratic party as the
democrats would have for saying they
had captured the populists. And they are
still insisting that their terms shall be &C
cepted.
In our dispatches from Atlanta yester-
day it was stated that the purpose Of Sen
ator Tillman's recent visit to Mr.. Watson
was to offer him cabinet position, in
the event of Mr.. Bryan's election, on con-
dition that he would retire from the popu-
list ticket. and that Mr.. Watson declined
to entertain the proposition. Assuming
that this statement is true what better
evidence is needed that the populist do
not intend to support Bryan and Sewall-
that they are going to support Bryan and
Watson, and that If the democratic lead
ers want TO get the benefit of the pOpu-
list vote they must take down Mr. Sewau
and accept Mr.. Watson in his place? II
the democrats should do that the popu-
lists would be the winners in the game Of
politics. They would be in a position to
say that they had not gone to the demo-
Gratis. but that the democrats had come
to them. Under such circumstances the
chances of the republicans for winning
the election would be Increased.

Is IL SubsidInEs

The republican organs are now saying
I that the silver craze" is subsidiug. The
7 New York Tribune. FOR instance. in is
+ Mondays issue says, .'It begins 20 attract
I attention that the most experienced and
I careful observers at the west ind the sil-
{ yer sentiment rapidly waning"
II IS worthy Of notice that the Tribune
I presents no evidence 10 support its as
sertion. on the contrary. il seems "a
question the truth 81 ITS own statement.
Further along in the same article it says:
AT the same time it is OF Importance 10
remember that it wiu not answer 10
reckon as completed already a change
which has begun most promisingly. but
yet has only begun"
II looks very much as II the Tribune
has no evidence whatever that the senti-
meDt in favor OF silver is on the wane
but asserts 81 IS for the purpose Of keep
ing up the courage Of the republicans
and urging them TO greater efforts in be-
half OF their ticket
When the sentiment in behalf Of silver
begins TO wane. the republicans will be
able 10 name the men who have been
active in behalf Of silver and are now
working to promote the cause OF the
gold standard 1t has not been able TO do
that yet. and until it is IT would be the
wiser plan 10 take its assertions relative
to the waning of the sentiment in behalf
Of silver with a very considerable degree
Of allowance.
There is no doubt that the republicans
are going to make very thorough can
vass Of all the states which they hope to
carry. They have the means to make
such a canvass. 1t would be strange in
deed if they failed to make converts. But
the making OF few converts here and
there will not help them much. In order
to succeed they must make many con-
verts in the middle western states.
1t is an easy matter to make assertions,
but in these days when assertions are so
plentiful they do not cut much Of figure
in politics. They must be accompanied
by satisfactory proofs. When the 'Trib-
une is in a position to present
proofs that the silver movement is losing
vigor the country will have more conf
dence in what it says relative to that
matter.
