BALD MOUNTAIN COPPER.
Surprising Returns from First
Shipment OF Ore.

Returns were received this week from
the shipment of eleven and a half tons
of ore recently made by the Bald Noun
tain Copper Company from their newly
located claims on Bald Mountain, and
they proved an agreeable surprise to
the company, says the Sentinel.
The ore was consigned to the Boston
q Colorado Smelling Company at Dem
yer, and after deducting Sl55.l0 for
freight and all other charges, the elev-
en- and half tons netted the shippers
1868. Al, which is remarkable showing
considering the fact that the claims on
ly were located about four months ago,
and this ore was taken out from the ve-
ny surface in doing the first assessment
work. The assay made in Eureka pri-
OF to shipment showed:
SiX-tenths of an ounce in gold; four
and seven-tenths ounces silver, and l64
per cent copper.
The company, which is composed of
Eureka men, has suspended work for
the Winter, but operations will be re-
sumed in the Spring, and pushed with
all the vigor hich the value of the ore
warrants.

We have reproduced in this issue an
open letter from c. d. Van Duzer'
Assemblyman-elect from Humboldt
county, to the Reno Gazette, because
1t is worth reading. His frankness and
fairness in discussing the issues and out
lining his position before themeeting Of
the Legislature are heartily to be com
mended and are in marked contrast to
the usual practice of our Legislators,
with whom mum is the word. y Mr..
Van Duzer is candidate for the posi-
tion of Speaker of the Assembly, and
we hope he gets it. He will have to
overcome, however, the combined OPP
position of Wallace and the lottery
crowd, who are again grooming that
old fossil from Churchill county, Lem
Allen, for the job.

Il Some Reasons Why Early French Fashions Are
@ >%~@2 ><N"**#a%' Not Always Correct
UR1NG the past few seasons
H. y French manufacturers If dress

DURING the past. few seasons
Is French manufacturers of dress
- s goods have learned a lesson.
Time was when they began early In
the season to show every novelty their
ingenuity could produce, New sum-
mer novelties We're placed upon the
market in Paris withvthe first breath
of spring, and it was always possible
to- tell just what the season would
offer from one to three months be-
fore the season had arrived.
Now the same manufacturers and
designers are wary of their novelties,
and keep them carefully concealed un-
til the season is fairly well advanced.
If they have anything to offer that
does not give promise of attracting
fashionable attention, they bring it
out early, and for O. reason.
The reason is because they want
the, English, the German, the Aus
trian, the American manufacturers
to copy it, make up big stock of it,
and then: find, that they have been
sold and left with stock of unsal-
able goods upon their hands. They
feel that this is but just retaliation
for their own loss of previous years,
when they, brought out their choicest
novelties only to find them copied by
foreign manufacturers in good time
for the opening of, the season. It was
that that caused the French manu-
