The properties sold are gold and silver, and from them years ago, MT. Wicker shipped over S30,- 600 in silver alCne. The company will at once inaugurate work. and Monday 9 large force Of men and big stock of mining supplies will be sent down, and in addition to that a new steam hoist has been ordered. enator Truax, one of the heavy stockholders of this company, has just arrived from the east. ome development work has been done in the past Cn all of the claims.

HoLLANDERs GO SIGHTSEEING
Eigh. Miles of Railroad Which Cost
 3300 900 to Build.

There was opened on May day, at
 Rotterdam, Q loop line, only eight
 miles in length. which materially helps
 in shortening the runs between Lon
 don and the continent.
 While all natural obstacles have been
 overcome in the new route to Berlin
 and Russia, there still remains a sec ton of twenty miles in Germany which
 promises 10 postpone for a time the full enjoyment Of the opportunity of fered to all travellers by the Great Eastern. Six years ago this company chose the Hook Of Holland as the more expeditions point for landing pas sengers en route to the continent. This arrangement proved eminently satis- factory. But it was found that a seri- ous delay arose in getting through H0l- land, and on a section twenty miles long between Rheine and Lohne on German territory A large amount cf money WAS required to get over the Dutch difficulty and this has now been supplied; but the second which On.y required . more harmonious working of trains at each end of the section, has, after a long diplomatic c9nJFo- vecsy. not yet been accomplished.

Engineers point ed out that a semi-cirollar line or aDOut eight miles might be construct ed ringing Rotterdam, by which rhe lcnger journey might be wholly av0id- ed; buS that the cost would be very considerable. The facts were laid be- fore the government of the Neither lands and the state granted a sub sidy covering the cost to the extent ot CT the amount. This was three years ago. and the locD of eight miles has only now been competed, the opening taking place on May day.

 The owners Of claims here believe that the time will come when silver will be in demand and the mines of this district will again become produc- eGs. While the most of them have made more out of copper mines than they could ever expect to realize from silver. they naturally turn to the old days with the hope that Uncle Sam will create value for silver and bring T return of the old chloriding times.
 have received a letter from &; Paul inquiring about the "Co-Operat- i've Mining and Development company of Arizona" an organization whose properties 1 know nothing of. The gentleman in St. Paul bought 100 shares of stock but he admits that he does not know where the mines of the company are located in this territory, nor did the statement Or prospectus state, other than the company owns several promising claims. The same investor had purchased Spenazuma stock. and he wrote me when the eX- posture Of that company appeared. He places his money in stocks something as passion for gambling leads man 10 take chances on the wheel or at faro. Still he does not like to be fooled all Of the time, and he appeals to me to ask if there are any legitimate stock deals in ArizcAa. Adding he says: You are doing just what your paper should do in the interests of real mi quickly impair confidence in min ing investments as these wildcat schemes. You will do your territory Q real service by hanging the hide Of every one Of them you can spot on the fence" He refers to the Spenazuma mine. the expose of which probably saved him from investing more money in that rank mining fake. The Repub- ,ican is trying to advance Legitimate mining and feels that it can do this in no better way than by exposing the operations Of wildcat schemes. If the properties of the Cooperative Mining company have merit The Republican is willing to espcuse their cause, and if they belong in the wildcat class this paper will not hesitate to say so.
