Regarding this matter, Recorder Manning
says that Marshal Austin has merely put

So far as prospected by these surface
workings the ledge has an average width
of seven feet. The ore is an iron pyrites
carrying gold, Gts principal value), some
silver and small per cent of lead and
copper. Thirty or forty assays of this
surface ore have beensmade, from sam
pies taken across the vein, and the low
est returns were $I4.6I. the highest
$4,000, averaging better than $40.
Across the creek, on the Gipsy Queen
group. where extensive development
work is being done on the same ledge,
by Boston company, at depth of 90
feet, samples from across the face of the
tunnel aSSayed $64.o2. These workings
demonstrate that the per centage of lead
increases with depth, as we'll as the gold
values, making the ore easy to treat.
The GipSy KingGold Mines Company
will begin at an early day to drive tun-
mel, which will cut the vein at distance
from its mouth of from 50 to 90 feet and
at depth of about $ feet. When the
tunnel reaches the ledge, it will turn and
drift from that point in ore that will
doubtless pay to ship.
For the purpose of raising funds with
which to prosecute this work, the first
stock offered for sale has been placed
upon the market. Fifty thousand shares
are now offered at FIVECENTS, no more
nor no less. When this is disposed of
the price will be raised. Every share of
stock, except that placed in the treasury,
is pooled for one year from January !,
1901, so that this statement can be relied
upon as strictly true, The market will
never be flooded with GipSy King stock.
Orders for blocks of less than 500 shares
are not solicited.
All money should be sent to the treas
urer of the company, J. H. Robbins, who
is president of the First Bank of Sumpter.

TAXES OF THE WAR.
Transparent scheme OF Republican
TrIckAters 10 Rob the
People.

The republicans in congress evi-
IDENTIFY intend 10 make a little reduc-
ton Of the war taxation go a good
way. The republican platform prom
ised the people reduction, but re-
publican platforms are often made to
get in on, not TO stand on.
The house OF representatives has
passed bill which makes a slight re-
duction, but even this Disappointing
ly small reduction is held up in a sem
ate committee, from which il seems
unlikely TO emerge. Meantime. the
cost of the operations in the Philip
pines continues at a figure which
must eat up heavy slice Of the war
taxes.
In addition, the scale of national ex-
penditure is evidently TO be lavish.
Bills TO enlarge the army. TO enlarge
the navy. to increase the pension list,
TO grant civil pension. 10 grant big
subsidies, and TO Improve" rivers and
harbors everywhere. are the order OF
the day. Congressman talk in billions
nowadays. The other day a promi-
nent congressman declared that q
river and harbor bill appropriating
500, 100000 could easily be passed at
the present session, and he wondered
at The congressional moderation.
No Ding.ey tariff will provide for
any such amount of expenditures.
The Dingley tariff scheme was on the
point of collapsing when the Spanish

party TO impose war taxes and cum

1T is OUTRAGEOUS.
The ship subsidy Bill Fathered and
Furthered by Interested
Parties.

Senator Hanna is evidently getting
bill. In special dispatch TO the
News the other day il was said that
he had threatened to sue those pa
pers that charged that he had any Pc
cuniarv interest TO be served by the
passage of that measure. But real
" there have been, as far as we have
noted no charges of that kind.
What is asserted is that the men
who are back Of the bill are, as a
rule, selfishly interested in 1t, and
that their interests are diverse from
those Of the people. Mr.. Rockefeller
and Mr.. Griscom. for instance. have
never been known as men who set
the welfare of their country above
the welfare of themselves. In this
connection we should refer TO an
other statement made in the News.
The gentlemen who are conducting
the "bureau' in the interest Of the
ship subsidy bill are quoted as say
ing:
ut can be announced authoritatively
that. with the single exception OF the
army bill. there Is no measure before
| congress which Is considered by the adj
ministration to be OF such urgent mpor-
lance To the welfare Of the country a.

1t occurs to us that II would not
be bad thing for the administration
TO speak for itself on this subject,
as on all others. And If. as our cor
respondent says. in speaking Of the

bureau. "the president and all his cab
met regard il (the subsidy bilD as
essential to the continued prosperity
of the nation" the president and his
cabinet ought TO say so. For orr
part. we think ii is an Outrage Gus
