JACKSON ON MINING.
Thinks He Has Great Property in His
Washington Claims.

AS you know. | came to the La
Sal Mountains, Utah, TO see about
some mining claims. Ihave secured
a half interest in four claims, each
1900 feet long by 600 feet wide and
all lay adjoining, and are on good
gold bearing ground. In fact, they
give good assays from the surface.
There is one mill being put up in
Gold Basin, six miles distant, at
the present time, and there will
likely be from one to three mills
built the coming summer in Miner s
Basin, where our mines are located.
The superintendent and foreman
say that we are on the same vein
that their company is developing,
and that we have better assays on
the surface than their company had.
Our claims lay thirty miles from
Moab, the county seat, and thirty
FIVE miles from the railroad. The
location laws of the United States,
and of the state of Utah have been
complied with. Our location certi-
ficates are on record in the record
er's Office of Grand county, Utah,
and title is clear and perfect to our
claims.
I quote from an advertisement
which is running in mining paper,
and which gives my sentiment ex-
actly.
eve are not fishing for suckers,
nor cunning for mossbacks. We
don't guarantee anything but square
treatment. IF we did not think that
we will get adequate returns for
our time and money, we would quit
the deal cold If we make money
The Redwood gazette. [volume] (Redwood Falls, Minn.) 1873-1940, 1903-10-28

you will get your share of it if you
take chance with us.
No man can see farther in the
ground than another, but believe
there is large amount of gold for
all concerned, if we can develop this
property.
This is comparatively a new min
ing camp, and the distance to rail-
road and smelter has prevented
many good prospects from develop
ing into good mines, which would
pay dividends, for there are proper
ties here which assay high enough
to treat if we had mill close, but
will not stand transportation
charges.
Several rich strikers within the
past year have attracted capitalists,
and new properties are now being
thoroughly worked and mill are be-
ing put in to treat the ore, and in a
very short time our mining camp
will come to the front as first class
mining district.
All mining men are now looking
for an ore that can be treated by the
cyanide process, which, as you may
know, is the cheapest known method
of extr acting the gold from the ore;
and one of the best metalurgists and
assayers in Colorado reports this to
be "A phenomenal cyanide ore
which can be treated at cost of
about one dollar per ton after being
laid down at the mill. "
An expert miner has examined
this ground, and reports it to be the
same vein that the Grouse Mountain
company are developing. They are
well enough pleased with their pro
perty to put in a mill in the early
spring. They have three feet Of
good ore at depth of eighty-hve
feet, on which their last assay was
ST. 40. Our ground extends to
within three hundred yards Of their
workings. 1t is on the same vein,
and we had better assays on the
surface than they did.
In proof of this I refer you to the
superintendent of their company
W. R. Wheat, Moab, Utah, or to
their foreman, Frank Bixon, Basin,
Utah, who have both examined the
ground, and pronounce it to be on
the same vein as the Grouse Noun
tain property.

CITY LETTER

The Game of Football as it IS Fought =
MutilatiOn the Penalty for Being a Good

to be a dangerous antagonist, the
other side is satisfied to cripple him
but slightly. But if he shows skill
or strength or activity or endur-
ance that looks dangerous he imme-
diately becomes mark for con

far into the earth that he has 10 be
either pried out or extricated with
pick and shovel. The distinguish
ing feature of the game is that a
man is punished, sometimes to the
extent of insensibility, for being a
good player, though through the
mysteries of fate such a man some
times lives to participate in another
contest.
A genuine effort has been made to
describe, in a realistic and truthful
manner, a typical game of football as
played, or rather fought, by the big
college teams. AS the game recently
fought between Minnesota and Iowa
was a typical one, the above descrip-
ton will fit. In the future, when
you read or learn that any football
team with which you are acquainted
or in which you have any interest,
has fought game, you have only to
read the above and you will know
as much about it as it is possible to
learn. The description will fit every
game, wherever or by whomsoever
fought, excepting, perhaps the slight
variation regarding the number Of
injuries and deaths. W. M. T.

THREW AWAY HlsCnANCES
Adopted Son of a Winona Professor
Rifles Minneapolis Bank
Mail.

Roy Bonsell Holz!nger, the adopted son
of Professor John G. Holzinger, professor
Of natural history in the Winona State
Normal school, was in police court
Wednesday on charge of larceny pre-
ferred by the officials of the National Bank
Of Commerce. The boy pleaded guilty and
Judge Holt committed him to the state
training school.
? Young Holzinger was first brought into
court upon a charge of incorrigibility pre-.
ferred by Professor Holzinger, his adopted
father. This was finally replaced by the
more serious charge. The father told Judge
Holt that he had adopted the boy at the
age Of years and that, while everything
had been done to give him good home, he
was unappreciative and had caused no
end of trouble. He had failed in his studies
in the normal school and was then sent
to the city schools, but failed to do better
work. Thinhing to encourage the lad,
Professor Holzinger found position for
him in the National Bank of Commerce in
this city.
When young Holzinger came to the bank
he was given a place where it fell to his
lot to open the banks mail. Shortly af-
forwards the bank officials began to no
tice that small sums of money had been
extracted from the letters. Considering
the boys character above reproach the
matter was reported to the postal authori-
ties, but careful watch at the post
office failed to reveal any trihing there
and it was decided that the mail was be-
ing tempered with at the bank. One OF
| two decoy letters were sent and youne
Holzinger was caught He broke down
and confessed that he had secured over
hundred dollars in that way.

HENNEPIN AVENUE OPENING
Paving Progresses Rapidly and Thor.
ofare Will Be Open Soon.

City Engineer Andrew Rinker announces
the opening of one side of Henepin ave-
nue. between Harmon place and Groyeland
avenue within two three days. Since
about May Lowry Hill has not been
paving operations preventing. The sand
stone on concrete has now been laid along
one side of the avenue, and will be laid
along the other as fast as blocks are re-
ceived from the Kettle river quarries.
Within three weeks, it is expected, the
entire paving scheme, including sandstone
blocks from the end Of the asphalt at
Tenth street to the top of Lowry Hill and
that portion of Lyndale avenue lying be-
tween the Lowry residence and the tri-
angle on the approach to the hill, will be
completed.
The paving Of Third avenue S from Fifth
street to Grant street has reached the
concrete laying stage and for the past two
days broken stone has been hauled onto
the surface for the coming of the concrete
crew. The sewer work on this street
should be completed and the concrete laid
by Aug. is, at which time the creosoted
wooden blocks will be on the ground,
either thru home manufacture or by ship
ment from Indianapolis
| The ancient cedar blocks on Vine place
| between Grant and Groveland are being
torn up, and if the bond sale is made Aug.
| 10, as the city officials expect, the paving
| of this piece of street with cedar blocks
on concrete and the Third avenue S paw
| ing will be completed within two months
at the outside.

tories, including the Works plant at Min
neapo1is, had changed hands followed the
announcement that the trust had author
lied a large issue Of additional stocks and
the rumor presumed that the new issue
was for the purpose of taking over these
properties. Now Mr.. Wiles broadly init
mates that this report was stock jobbing
scheme and that the tactics Of the Nat
ional are tending to encourage independ-
ent production. Ia,
| Furthermore Mr.. Wiles stated unequivo-
| cally that his company had no conferences
with the biscuit trust officials or any in
dividual representing the trust. There was
no price agreement or understanding, or
any exchange whatever Of trade con-
fidences. The relations between the re-
spective interests are the same at present
as at the time the independent companies
were organized and started, and they are
competitive in every sense.
