A Most Satisfactory Showing Made
by the Directors.

A Most satisfactory Showing Made
by the Directors.
The annual stockholders meeting of
the Mammoth Mining company was
held yesterday afternoon. 10000 shares
of stock being represented.
The election of officers and directors
for the ensuing year resulted as fol-
lows:
William Mcintyre, president.
j. A Cunningham, vfce-president.
H. S. Young, treasurer.
Samuel Mcintyre.
P, T. Farnsworth.
W. W. Ritter.
J. T. Little.
BY a unanimous vote j. Fred Corker
was continued in Office as secretary for
the company
The annual report was a most salts
factory one, and showed that the net
earnings of the mine for 1895 amount
ed to $99, 1000. The pleasing intelligence
was also given out that the company
was out of debt, and that the mine
was looking exceedingly well, as the
gold values increased with depth.
4 resolution was adopted appropriate
ing 500 per month each for the year
1895 TO William Mcintyre and ]. A.
Cunningham in payment for their eff
ficient services as the executive COM
mittee.
The best of feeling prevailed through
out the meeting and expressions of sat
isfaction were heard ON every hand
concerning the able manner in which
the old board of directors had man
aged the affairs of the company during
the past year, raising. as it did the
debt of the company, and placing the
property on paying basis
The company now starts out with a,
clean tally sheet, and the report shows
that since the first CT the year the ore
values have increased in the mine, and
the mill has been giving better results
The future for the Mammoth looks
bright and promising.
