ON THE COMsTOCK

Alf Cbartz, in a recent letter to the
Genoa Courier, has the following TO
say OF the condition of affairs on the
Comstock:
There are less than forty men on the
payroll as miners on the Comstock.
The camp is practically closed down.
1t is lockout. What is its future? /
reported mining work on the Com
stock during its last big boom, and for
several years thereafter, and have
been through most all OF the mines
there, and l can say that the future OF
the Comstock is brighter to-day than
it has been since 1890, i. g., the causes
which brought about its downfall are
nearer removal. The old ship is about
TO be placed on the dry dock, and
have its bottom cleaned, and the old
barnacles removed. How is il going
to be accomplished? The same old
management are going to bond
(mortgage) the mines they will spend
the money; the bondholders will fore
close and buy the properties in and
own them in private ownership, and
good bye stocks and stock speculation
on the Comstock forever. There is
enough low-grade ore on the Comstock
in sight to run 200 stamps for twenty
years at profit. and to pay either 50
or $4 day to those who work at the
most dangerous and unhealthy part Of
the work. Along about 1890 Superin.
tendent Sharon of the Yellow Jacket
made determined and systematic ef-
fort to make certain gold bearing rock
in that mine pay. He paid 40 cents q
ton royalty to the Tunnel Company
80 cents ton railroad freight to the
Santiago mill on the Carson river, and
it cost only So cents ton to mill it,
running about eighty tons day. The
ore milled about s6.25 ton, gold ,and
then he could not make it pay. What
was the matter? Too many leeches
aud bloodsuckers attached in San
Francisco aud all around the country.
Too many officers and supernumer-
aries. | have not the remotest doubt
but that Mr.. Sharon can take thai
mine in private ownership and make
that ore pay big. On the 1000 foo'
leyel OF the Con. Virginia there is 8
crosscut that goes through body o
quartz 165 feet in width, which viii
average about $40 ton, half gold
which would make it about So a tor
all gold, and which will work up to s,
Il ton. There are many other large
bodies of low-grade ore in the Hale &
Norcross, Chollar, Potosi, Gould &
Curry, Crown Point, Belcher anC
other mines, and in all these bodies
are found small streaks OF high-grad'
ore up to pay standard. Nearly every
mine on the Comstock can be made Il
pay in private ownership. Miners hav'
attempted time and time again to ge
leases of the mines, but, except in
very few instances, they have alway
failed. The msnagements canno
touch the ore themselves at a profit
and they will not permit others 4
touch il. In the Justice mine, il
nearly every instance that they hav'
given the miners leases, the miner
have made over s4 day, and in SOM
cases have made over 500 day. Th
last lease let out exposed ore of suffi
cient value to permit the management
to run the mine themselves; tney wil
90 through that, steal it all, levy an
other assessment, and then have +
lease again to get along.

The Country Editor of To-Day.

AS the Springfield Republican says:
The country editor is not handy
Andy in community, to be reward
ed with free lunch, a plimentary
or the mere thank you of an unaP-
preciative constituency. His news
paper is not mendicant thriving by
the good graces Of the community.
1t does not survive on the crumbs of
support thrust to it from the tables
Of the political and business dives of
its locality. But some people appear
to think so and treat it accordingly.
The occupation of editing and pub
fishing country newspaper has
ceased to be despised one, the butt
of unfeeling jokes, and the victim of
unthoughtful ridicule. The country
newspaper and it's editor have come
to be an institution of power and in
fiuence in every community. They
have come to stand as any other
great enterprise requiring capital
and brains for it's conduct stands.
The business of conducting the coun
try newspaper in the present has
come to require the highest kind of
business ability, and the editorial
and news departments have come to
be entrusted to steady nerves, trained
minds and hands.
Your local paper may not be what
it ought to be-all you would like to
have it-but perhaps it is as good as
you help to make it.
