"NOT GUILTY."

In the issue of Nov. Both, the
News-Herald asked Editor Schultz
of the Prospect to tell what he knew
of the standing and operations Of
the Vulture Gold Company, mas
much as the Prospect had carried a
full page advertisement for the
company for several months, also
because Editor Schultz had stated
in his paper at various times that
he personally investigated the mer-
its of every mining proposition ad-
yertised in the Prospect. The Pros
pect replies as follows:
''The Prospect is called upon to
explain something, viz, the stand
ing Of the Vulture Gold Company
We are unable at this time to do
so but will say that this office is
having the matter investigated by
competent party in New York,
and will publish the result of said
investigation as soon as possible.
The Prospects advertisements of
the Vulture were the same as ap-
peared in other papers of the terri
tory, and were absolutely correct.
AS the News-Herald we'll knows,
there is no better gold property in
the West today than the Vulture
mine, and we stand by every word
that has appeared in this paper in
reference to that hoted property.
If, as the News-Herald claims, the
Vulture Gold Company has acted
in bad faith, evidently there will
be an accounting. and the promo
ters will have to answer. This
paper knows nothing Of the trans
actions of the promoters in the East
but we hope they have acted hon
estly, but if to the contrary, they
surely will receive very little sup
port from Yavapai county in the
future; and we trust the laws of the
country will be able to protect those
who have been defrauded, if there
are any. Nevertheless, notwith-
standing any failure the Vulture
Gold Company may have made, it
does not detract from the merits OF
theaVulture mine"
We are glad to note that an in
yestigation is being made and the
facts will soon be before the public.
In company with the Prospect, we
believe the Vulture mine to be one
OF the biggest and best gold prop
critics in the West, and that with
the application of capital it will be
an even greater producer than it
was in the days when millions
were taken out-but the Vulture
mine and the Vulture Gold Com
pany, sc Broadway, New York, are
two different things, regardless of
the impression the latter has tried
to create. The Vulture Gold Com
pany did have an option on the
Vulture mine but it has been for
feited, we are told, and if SO, the
persons who purchased stock in the
Vulture Gold Company have prob
ably been heeced, as the promoters
still retain a controlling interest in
the company and can use the mon
ey received from the sale of treasury
stock to purchase any worthless
pros pect, under the provisions Of
their articles of incorporation. If
the Vulture Gold Company has
worked a stock jobbing scheme up
od the public, using the reputation
of the Vulture mine as a bait, the
least that the Prospect can do, aft
er advertising them SO extensively,
is to make thorough investigation
ahd publish the result, which we
think it will do. Editor Schultz is
not the only one who has been mis-
lead.
