MINES Of EMPIRE


The Gold Fissure continues its daily
shipments in carload lots to the Golden
smelter, of fine character of material,
well adapted to the Carpenter processes.
rhe higher grade of Gold Fissure ores,
running as high as fifteen ounces gold to
the ton, are found in good proportion and
are contributing handsomely to dividend
funds. The system of advanced develop
ment maintained in the Gold Fissure
group precludes any halting condition as
new ore bodies are being constantly ad-
ded to existing reserves. This abandon
ment of the "stop and start" plan is at
once an innovation and an example.
The new ground opened by Manager
Dubois in the Conqueror, is showing a
fine streak of solid and milling ore, from
which large trial shipments have yielded
very satisfactory returns. This Easterly
drift is being rapidly extended and the
ores saved for treatment at the company
mill or for future shipment. The older
workings to the West of the shaft are
showing we'll in mill dirt and will supply
their daily quota when the mill starts.
The acquisition of additional and sur
rounding property and the steady main
tenance of development on its Douglas
mountain holdings, which now include
the old Maud S mine, characterize the
present activities of the Republic Consol-
idated company. The company, so says
Superintendent Burgess, will concentrate
its winter efforts on the rapid advance of
its workings into Douglas mountain and
at Dumont and resume operations in the

Then and Now.

M. Romaine one of our largest and
most energetic rice farmers recently
made good land sale. Speaking of
it, the Crowley Signal says:
s'The deal was for ten acres in the
northern edge of the city and was
bought by the Duson real estate firm
for $3.50 an acre from nj. Rornaine.
The ten acres brought 81, 800.
Now there is nothing SO startling
in that fact by itself; most Of the
property out there is held around
that figure. Here is where the strange
part comes in: About nine years ago
Mr.. Romaine bought this property
from the same firm that now figures
as purchaser and gave $50 less for the
entire piece than single acre of it
brought today, he having acquired it
then for 500 an acre.
