Gold Crater.

The mining outlook in the Gold Crater
district is looking up and now there is
10 question but that it will make a
camp. Enough work has not been done
to determine the extent OF the gold bear
ing area or the size and richness of the
ore shoots. The Gold Crater Mining
and MilliEgcompany is sacking ore from
the Hub that will be sent to one of the
shelters. Assays on the quartz have
been secured running away in the
thousands. There are twenty tons of
mill rock piled up which will be sent to
one of the Goldtield mills for treatment.
1t will be in the nature OF Il trial run as
the company intends to erect their own
reduction plant near the mine. High
grade ore is also being sacked on the
Curtis and Ridge group. some OF the
rock shows free gold in abundance and
it All pans.
Eugene Amann OF the firm of Scott
and Amann has purchased the No
Savey and Peg Leg lodes, located on
Hub mountain. There is good surface
showing on both claims and some OF the
float and groupings pan well.

From Death Valley,

Charles Showalter, who for the past
three months has been working his mine
which is located seventeen miles from
Bullfrog, at the north end of the Funeral
range Of mountains, arrived in Riaito
Thursday Mr.. Showalter drove over
land and was ten days On the road. He
was accompanied by ID. NJ. Post OF San

Morse, who are also largely interested
in mines, having been in connection
with Mr.. Showalter's so claims in all
which are located in California and Ne
vada, the state line running through
this property. During their three
months stay they sunk several shafts,
the rock improving as they went down,
assaying from $26 in gold and 10 ounce
in silver to S2,723 per ton. One stringer
from two to four inches wide assayed
8 200 per ton. They have also devel-

runs from 8 to 81 per cent and Is worth

a Los Angeles company has been looking
| over the mines, and Mr.. Showalter and
partners came down to negotiate with
the company, as they intend selling part
tof their interest and developing the

mand for men and teams, day laborers
being paid s. per day and miners IS to

often receive more favors than the
more retiring. less aggressive tribes
men.
The more ignorant and dependent
Indians who make no demand and
therefore receive few, IL any special
favors. need the personal aid of the
government. In placing and keeping
their children in school, In improving
their allotments and outstanding their
resources.
This class of Indians needs special
attention, but scarcely ever gets 1t,
because they don't clamor for 1t.
The more capable and virlle Indians
who have imbibed the white mans
arts and diplomacy, who are self
supporting and absolutely mdepend-
ent. get more than their share of at
tention.
Some system OF graduated citizen
ship should be instituted by which
intelligent and independent Indians
should receive title to their lands
and be released from government
care.
Their fitness for this condition
should be determined by a competent
and just board of commissioners
IT is Injustice TO many of the Uma-
tillas to hold them as wards when
they are capable of conducting their
own affairs and have ability equal to
many of their white neighbors'
On the other hand, there is large
class of Indians which needs the pro-
tecting arm of the government They
would be preyed upon by conscience
less whites il released from the gov
ernment's charge, These Indians
should remain wards until they fur
ther advance up the ladder of en-
lightenment.
Such a system of Indian citizenship
would encourage the Indian and
would gradually reduce the expense
of caring for the tribes, as the more
intelligent were released from gov
ernment control.

But the fool he called her his lady

And the work of our head and

Belong to the woman who did not

And the excellent things we plan

BROKEN RESOLUTIONS.

Alas-poor mortal--dost thou weep
Because thy foot slipped by the
way?
Rise! Lest thou canst no longer keep
The goal in view. and lose this day!
so thou hast sinned? And what is sin
Except an error--a mistake?
Rise at this hour! Resolve! Begin
A stronger effort still to make.
Knowest thou each fall may be
A mighty impetus to rise
If thou but willest thou shalt see
That thy mistake has made thee
wise.
The goal is hidden from thy sight
When thou remainest thus abased.
Rise i'm the consciousness of might
Barriers give way when grandly
faced.
Thou are not touched-thou didst not
Greve not because thy steps are
wrong;
Thy foot but slipped and that is all
Thou still art valiant-still art
strong!
