THE BONAPARTE
ROCKY BAR LODES.
The Opinion of an Expert
enced Mining Man.
In Time Will be a Second
Cripple Creek.

Tuesday the BULLETIN was fav-
ored by a visit from Mr.. James P.
Burford, superintendent of the Bon
aparte group of mines, near Rocky
Bar, who was here on his way to
Spokane for a short visit. Mr..
Burford is a native of California,
and has made mining his study
since boyhood. He is a highly
educated and pleasant gentleman,
and though young in years his ex-
perience has been great on the Cal
ifornia mother lode" Hence we
inserted our reportorial auger into
his person and brought out the
following relative to the mineral
values of the Bonaparte and Rocky
Bar country, which we believe will
be sanctioned by all experienced
mining men who have visited and
carefully examined the mineral
veins of Gilmore county:
"As to the mineral resources of
the Rocky Bar section | will say |
have made a personal and careful
inspection of numerous, at present
idle properties in the district, and
will emphatically say that many Of
these properties should not be lay
ing dormant today, for, taking into
consideration the regularity of the
veins in value, strength, course and
dip, and the formation, which is
the best ever seen anywhere
showing splendid gouge matter
proving there is no chance for the
veins to ever pinch or become ex-
hausted, and taking into considera-
ton the natural resources, there
being water in abundance and per
feet forests of timber Immediately
on the premises almost in every in.
stance.
Now, as to the character of the
ores, especially in the Bonaparte
section, situated about 5 miles east
of Rocky Bar, has been shown and
proven beyond question that from a
depth of from 80 to 22O feet that
the ores are of base nature, termed
tellurium, showing some sylvanite
and being of very high grade in
gold and some silver. Some may
question, why if the prospects are
so fattering does not capital become
interested and prove that the above
merits what represent. In answer
| will say that if many former man
ayers of different properties in the
district had their just deserts the
state would be caring for them in 1
way today that would not be at al
agreeable to said parties. And |
for one, stand ready to claim tina
if the proper course of development
were pursued in an economical wa.
and under the rules of good practi
cal mining that there remains n
question but that in the immediat
future mining men of the countr.
will look this way, untiring in thei
efforts to secure some of what
claim to be the most substantial
and permanent mining propertie
in the Pacific northe est today, an,
all | ask is a fair investigation fror
any practical mining man who
willing and honorable enough t
render fair and unbiased opinion
And | will add in conclusion tina
| expect to see at no distant day
that the Bear creek mining distric
will be a rival of Cripple creel
Colorado"

The TUESDAY MARKET
Crop Conditions Improved by the
Timely Rains Of the Past
Week.
Average Of Corn and other Staple
Products High at Present.
the Market.
Wheat Trading Heavy Within a
Narrow Range-..F Foreign Cables
Are Weak.

Des Moines, Aug. S.-The regular
weekly weather and crop bulletin was
issued today as follows:
The past week was seasonably
warm, with considerable excess of
rainfall, and more than the normal
amount of cloudiness and humidity. The
heaviest rainfall was in the central and
southern districts, but all sections of
the state received an ample supply OF
moisture for presennsleeds. Some dam
age to corn and grain was caused by
downpours of rain in numerous locali-
ties; but the benefits resulting from the
timely and liberal supply of moisture
will very greatly exceed the local and
incidental damage, and the inconveni-
ence of delaying harvest operations. In
the larger part of the state early corn
is caring finely and the condition of the
entire crop is generally promising Po-
tatoes, pastures and garden vegetables
have been greatly improved by the re-
cent rains.
Reports of crop correspondents for
Aug. ! have been tabulated, and the
following averages are shown in the
condition of the unharvested crops
Corn 80 per cent: millet, "a; flax, 49,;
buckwheat, 80; broom corn. IS; sorg-
hum. 81; Potatoes, 100; apples, So;
grapes, As; pastures, "a
II will be noted that the reports
show an Improvement of per cent in
the condition of corn since July l."

The Grain Letter,

Chicago. Aug. s-Wheat. within a
narrow range, a considerable business
was done. The weakness in Liverpool
and Paris and moderate clearances of
wheat, light receipts at the northwest
and Toledo, but with trade conditions
light, present holders of wheat have
little but sentiment to bear UP on. The
people think that the market is gath
ering short interest that would soon
get congested and bulges follow, and
1t is not an unnatural one, and were 1t
not for fear of liquidation of September
the buying volume would be greater.
The fact that we stand 10-cent decline
prevents large interest from taking
the bears side aggressively and while
many argue the market is we'll oversold
we are disposed to question 1t. The To-
cal talent is inclined to take moderate
profits and seem to be able to cover
contracts So far without changing the
market. Whether this Offering is prop
erly on this demand Is chiefly new sell
ing or letting go of long is largely con-
lecture, but we think that it is the lat
ter to larger extent than generally
realized. 1t would not be unwise to use
caution in following the short side much
further.
