Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications as they cannot
reach the diseased portion OF the ear.
There is only one way to cure deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional
aemedies. Deafness is caused by an
inflamed condition of the mucous
lining of the Eustachian Tube.
When this tube is inflamed you
have rumbling sound or imperfect
hearing, and when it is entirely
closed, Deafness is the result, and
unless the Inflammation can be taken
out and this tube restored to its nor
NAL condition, hearing will be de-
stroyed forever. Nine cases out OF
ten are caused by Catarrh, which is
nothing but an inflaned condition of
the mucous services.
We will give One Hundred Dollars

catarrhl that cannot be cured by

tempt has been made to gain
depth, although every indication
points to depth. 1t has been esti-
mated by conservative calculat ors
that there are over 100000 tons OF
pay ore in sight in this property
and depth of less than 200 feet
has been acquired. What reason
has the finger of the knocker to
be pointed at such property
with scorn?
And so we might continue in re-
gard to other copper properties in
this district. The Dyer mines, the
Spragg mine, the old Mcconnell
mine and several others along the
same lode might be mentioned as
producers, in days gone by, of
thousands of dollars worth of cop
per bullion. And all of these
properties show indications of
depth, but their owners are not in
circumstances to demonstrate
whether this is fact or not.
Certain it is that the work so
far done in the district in the way
of development has not been of
any material benefit. No depth
has so far been obtained. The
cry of the knocker is that the
mines do not go down, but how
they come to this conclusion by
simply scratching around OH the
surface is not explained. This
theory is exploded by the demon
stration that the Ludwig mine
does go down, at least 400 feet.
The lowest workings in the Doug
las mine are about 200 feet below
the surface on that property and
still more than 200 above the sur
face of the Ludwig, which is a
pretty fair indication that ore can
be found at depth of 1000 feet,
at least. Some day the right kind
of company Zone which does not
have to depend on the sale of
stock for capitaD will take hold of
some of these properties and open
up some of the biggest copper
mines in this or any other State. =.

In A recent decision the Su-
preme Court of Pennsylvania

lands. By his labor he earns pres

indefensible right of the working
man, and he can work for such

to accept. This is one of the
rights guaranteed him by our

the COPPER MINING SITUATION IN MASON
VALLEY.


tai to become interested in copper
properties in this section it does
not take him long to discover that
the district has an optic dressed in
mourning. Just how the district
received this discoloration cannot
be definitely stated, but it has very
likely resulted from a combina-
ton of circumstances. When the
Excelsior Company was organ
lied some four years ago and took
a bond on the Bluestone copper
property, it was confidently ex-
pected that the mine would soon
come to the front as producer
because the company had at its
head a capable and competent
manager, who knew what mine
was and how to operate it. This
was none other than c. S. Batter
man. For the short time that he
lived after becoming identified
with the property he did much to
make paying property of the
Bluestone, and, although the price
asked for the property was fancy
one, it would undoubtedly have
been made paying one had Mr..
Batterman lived until the present
time. After his death the balance
of the company handled the mine
much as lot of school boys would,
and finally gave up its bond. The
news soon went abroad that the
Excelsior Company had made
failure, that the mine was no good
and had been abandoned after the
company had expended in the
neighborhood of 100000 in the
erection of a Smelter and other
equipments. Strange to say, no
mention was made of the fact
that while the smelter on this
property was in operation, a peri
cd of thirty-three days, all told,
copper matte was made and sold
to the extent of over 100000.
Nor do the knockers stop to con-
slider that before the Excelsior
Company operated on the proper
ty one claim in the group alone
had produced great many thous-
ands of dollars worth of ore.
The Ludwig mine, another cop
per property in the same range of
hills as the Bluestone, is spoken
lightly of by people on the out
side, and yet this one claim has
produced nearly 100000 worth of
copper, and the mining and reduc-
ton of the ore has been carried on
in the most crude and expensive
way. The true reason why this
mine is not being operated is that
there is difference of opinion
between the owners of a portion
of the mine and the holder of an
other small interest. This prop
erty is developed to a depth of
over 400 feet and shows up a fine
body of ore which is of high
enough grade to warrant eXtrac-
ton and shipment to the coast for
reduction. Why should a proper
ty like this be spoken of in a dis
paraging way?
Next in line on this same lode
comes the Douglass group of
mines. This is a newer piece of
property than the other two, but
considerable development work
has been done on it and the show
ing of ore for depth of over 100
feet is phenomenal. Something
over year ago a company was
organized to take over this proper
ty and do further development
work. During the year past con-
siderable work has been done in
