General Whining news.

J.R. Delamar, in pamphlet recently
pnblished, points out the economic
advantage of the use of zinc dust in
the treatment OF cyanide solutions.
The various plants owned aud con
troed by him all use this method, at
great saving of time and expense,
aud the use Is rapidly increasing
recently the Republic and Drum
Llmmon mines have installed plants
under cyanide-zinc dust principles;
these are two of the most important of
gold mines.-Pioche Record

Wm. Vaughan aud Geo. O. Ford, who
are associated together in mining in
these districts have opened up some of
the richest property ever reported
from this section. Their mines are
adjoining the Houlihan & Bowers prop
critics on which there are different
shafts of 100 feet and over in which are
copper aud gold ledges which show as
says from los to 5O0s values. On the
claims of Vaughan Il Ford they show
rock literally full of free gold, and the
lodges baving the finest of periphery
aud slate walls, with a width of four
feet between the solid ore. All indi-
cations point to this district soon com

\ common mistake in mining
scheme is mpatience-hurry for quick
returns. Ordinarily when new bnsi
ness is to be built up, investors rightly
recognize the injustice of expecting
Immediate dividends therefrom. A
mine must be made, aud il is unjust
aud nbusinesslike to expect that it
will begin paying dividends until after
considerable outlay aud necessary
development More than one good
mine prospect has been spoiled by the
haste and im mpatience of its co-owners,
aud no amount of ability or experience
In the mines manager nor Of care and
good intent on the part OF the com.
pauy directors can overcome the mis-
chief made by majority of mine
stockholders who are in too great haste
for dividends.-M a. s Press.
