THE COMSTOCK LODE
What Ii Did and Has Done for the
Mining Industry

The decadence of the eonce-famous
mining town of Virginia, New,
calls to mind the debt that mining
owes to the methods pursued by
the miners Of the Comstock and
their splendid audacity in the days
when it took nerve to do what they
did. viz, prove the existence at
depth of ore in greater paying
quantities thtn surface or super
ticiIl workings would warrant.
Like the cautious voyagers of
ancient days, who crept carefully
from headland to headland, ever
content to skirt the shores of the
great sea, many miners of an earl
ier day had mostly confined their
workings to be continuous only
with the continuity OF ore, and
when a barren zone" was encoun-
tered work usually stopped in that
particular place. II the oxidized

Has Been Indicted

A. A. Pratt, who has been held
in Jail at Prescott for several
weeks, has been indicted by the
grand jury. He pleaded not guilty
to the charge. Mr.. Pratt is we'll
known by many of the readers OF
the News Herald. He was arrested
on a charge of forging the name of
A. w. Colvin to a $500 check That
is. the draft was in favor of Mr..
Colvin, and Mr.. Pra t is supposed
to have extracted it from the mail,
or had it done, and then signed Mr..
Col>in's name to the check. He
deposited it in the bank in Mr..
Colvin's name and afterward
drew against it in the name of va
rious fcticious persons.
Pratt had a great many friends
at Wickenhurg who were Somewhat
surprised at his arrest. But if he
is proven to be the rascal he is
charged with being, his friends will
not be much surprised, for he
was regarded by many as being a
little unsafe to 90 business with

ore gave out and the sulphurets
came in; if water made sinking a
matter of expense, or the small APP
preparation made further progress
a question of doubtful finance, the
tendency was to stop and try else
where. But as Columbus, sublime
in the conception of scientific work,
forsook the shore and sailed bodily
out 10 discover a new world, so the
Constock miner discarded ancient
custom and regardless of precedent
or tradition, went on in demonstra-
ton of the fact that superficial
stratum of hard rock, or an appar-
emily insuperable obstacle of water
or swelling ground, only made nee
essarv the exercise of greater enter
prise and skill. The material sue
cess that crowned his efforts, that
poured steady stream of treasure
into the nations life at the very
time the nation was engaged in a
struggle for existence and most
needed help, great as that success
was, is but a part of the advantage
the world derived in the splendid
lesson taught, that in mining, as
in other things, th2 greater the OBJ
stacle the greater the incentive to
overcome it.
1t is largely because Of his in
domitable courage and energy that
deep mining is now possible, for
when men saw the vast treasure
uncovered at Mount Davidson, the
sight told them that in many other
places the same energy would tend
to the same success.
Nevada has other Comstocks
probably equal in value to the
Comstock of generation ago. and
is now busy uncovering some Of
those embryo honanzas. The great
mining state has had its day of de-
cadence, but will have its day of
assured success, when its output OF
bullion will approximate that of
the early TOs.-Mining and Scien
tiic Press.

HE Had A KICK COMING
The Wrong Kan Was Given Credit
fer Promoting a Mining Deal

H. G.. Hoffman. a local mining
promoter, has just kick" coming
at the News Herald. In a recent
issue we stated that Chester T..
Kennan, of Milwaukee, Wis, had
bonded the San Cloud group Of
mines through the influence of NJ
q. Burns, dt Prescott En- fact Mr..
Burns did not have anything to do
with the deal Mr.. Hoffman was
the promoter in the case. But if
Mr.. Hoffman had have dropped in
and told us about the matter be-
fore hand, we would not have made
the mistake So, he is as much to
blame for the blunder as we are.
Anyway, we are glad that Mr..
Krnnan has taken hold of some
mining property in this vicinitys
and if Mr.. Hoffman or Mr.. Burns
can interest few more such men
in the mines of this country, they
will DO we'll, and it won't matter
which gets the credit so long as
the country gets the benefit.

HE HAS GONE EAST
IN THE INTERESTS WATER
FOR MARTINEZ
And TO Visit With Relatives He
Has Not Net With for
Many Years

Ed Zeiger, local real estate
man, left Thursday morning for
Chicago and other Eastern cities.
He is interested in a water propo-
sltion for the town. He has sew
eral good water locations in the
hills above us and needs only the
piping to bring it into town with
ample fire pressure. While east it
is probable that Mr.. Zeiger will
buy the pipe for the line. He is
not worried about other water
deals. If some other company
should get in before him with the
water for domestic purposes, he
would turn his to irrigation, and
with the high prices usually paid
here for vegetables, would make it
possible for him to make more out
of the water by using it that way
Dhan if he sold it in parts tc vari-
Gus parties.
Mr.. Zeiger has already raised
the capital for practically all the
expense OF putting in the line, and
he will have very little trouble in
raising the remainder from local
people, if he should ask it: His
water proposition is the most
economical scheme that we have
heard hroached. Ii he once starts
water here it will be capable of
further develop mont, and we are
of the opinion that it will be the
beginning OF the development of
permanent water supply for Mar
tinez.
Mr. Zeiger's trip East is to be
con b.neG with Business and pleas
ure. He will visit his old home at
Quincy; Ill.,, and will see his old
pIaymates. We wish him a pleas
ant time and a successful business
trip.

George E. Sanders, of the Angel
Mining Company, has returned
from the East. He has reported
that a large force will be put to
work on the Angel and Bess mines.
We note in the recent transfer at
Phoenix that Mr.. Sanders and Mr..
Akers have transferred several
claims in the Vulture district, in
which the Angel mine is located,
to the Angel Mining Company.
The Angel company had consid-
cradle trouble not long ago with
it's financial affairs. People who
are interested in seeing the coun-
try go ahead will be glad to see
these indications of the affaire of
the company being put in good
shape.
The property OF the Angel Min
ing company is one of great prom
Use, if it can have a fair chance.
The management in the past has
been faulty in great many ways.
We understand that u new mana
ger has been sent out from the
East. We hope he will prove to be
a mining man and not tender
foot. And we also hope thai the
elements of boom that have char
acterized the operations of the com
pany in the past will be eradicated.
We are not informed as to
whether the company is still sell
ing stock, but if they are, it can
not do neither party any injustice
if the new management be carefully
investigated as to it's qualifications
by intending investors before
making purchases in that line.

SULLIVAN TALKS
ABOUT THE ALASKA MlNE
AND WATER
He Has Secured Capital and
Will Push Work at the
Mine at Once

ID. j. Sullivan has returned from
the East, where he went to float
stock in the Alaska mine. He has
been successful in the man, and is
preparing to push the work on the
proposition. He has put several
men to work already and will soon
have others at work. He is ex-
pecting a party of Eastern capital
lists out to look at the property IN
"a few. days. He says that he does
not want any one to put money
into proposition until he looks
into it and knows for himself that
it sail O. K.
Local people all know that this
property will stand the racket OF
any kind of investigation. Mr.
Sullivan showed us some returns
on two assays which Mr.. Burd sail,
}ass8yer of the Congress niue, made
for him. One of these assays was
on new place which Mr.. Sullivan
expected little from, and it gave a
return of $54 in gold. "A sample
from the dump of the property,
and one selected for the purpose OF
getting the average value Of the en-
tire dump, ran $87. These assays
show that the Alaska is dandy
property, and local people who
have"stock in it are satisfied that
they are in on a big thing and
many are wishing that they had
taken more while it was selling
at 10 cents a share
Mr. Sullivan's company has
also been very fortunate in secur-
ing fine water location. 1t
has taken up under the desert
land act, forty acres on Date creek.
Mike Engasser was employed to
dig a well on this property and at
a slight depth encountered strong
flow of water. And it is part of
the plans of the company to put in
a water system which will furnish
water to Congress Junction and
lower Congress.
This is an opportunity which
has been long overlooked. A good
paying investment would be the
installing of a water SYSTEM for
these two places. If Mr.. Sullivan's
company pushes things as rapidly
as they say they are going to do,
this will soon cease to be a dry
town, if, indeed. we do not have
water supply before they get it. 1t
has come to be recognized by sew
eral mining companies operating
in the vicinity that they can make
the supplying of water to this
place pay interest on the invest
ment necessary to furnish water to
their respective proper ties, and the
first Que to it will te the lucky
man, for the reople will be glad to
give their patronage to the first
outfit which will furnish the water.
