Goldfeld, Nevada, August IL, 'O5.
Mr.. w. w. Degge, Boulder, Colorado:
Nv Dear Sir-While on a recent trip
TO the Gold Crater district / had an OPP
portunity to look over the property of
the Wellington association and the de-
velopment that is being done on it I'M
der the management of Mr.. Sam G.
mott.
While the property is as yet IN an
undeveloped condition the surface
showing and development to date gives
promise of a mine of very great mag
nitude.
The formation and the conditions in
connection with the ore occurrences in
this property are practically identical
with those of the best portions of the
Goldfeld district. While the surface
showing both as to quantity and value
is fully equal to anything ! have seen
in this region.
The work Mr.. Knott is doing on the
property is the most business like
piece of development work that I have
seen in the outlying camps.
Yours very truly,
F. A. LUCY.

LIME POINT NEWS.

Reports received from the Lime
Point country indicate that mining
matters in that section are booming
and that the territory is to be thor
oughly exploited. For sometime past
that section has attracted the attention
of practical mining men and as a re-
suit a good bit of money is now avail
able for prospecting purposes. Last
week the Midday claim, located about
two miles east of the Point, was
bonded and leased by Messrs. Murray
and Robinson to A. j. Vance and R. L..
Johns in the amount of $4,000. The
lease extenas over a period of one year
and carries the usual royalties of 20
and 25 per cent. A 3-foot blowout is
showing on the claim on which assays
are being obtained ranging from $50 to
.$112 to the ton. The vein matter is
lime quartz and carries its principal
values in silver. 1t also returns fair
grade gold values. 1t is the intention
of the lessees to at once inaugurate a
systematic course of development work
for the purpose of determining the ex-
tent and value of the ore deposits at
depth.
Bond & Co. are working five men at
Lime Point on a number of well min
eralized claims and the prospects for
encountering pay ore are considered
good. The outcrop shows some free
gold and pans and assays well. II.
Schriber has located a number of
claims in that section and is now en-
gagged in performing the work neces-
vary for recording them. The surface
indications augur well for the finding
of good values and the rock pans well.
About one mile southwest of the Point,
a group of seven claims owned by
Messrs. Mcdonald, Cameron and others,
is being exported in the interest of a
number of Butte, Montana, mining
men. An option has been granted on
the territory and as the surface indi-
cations are above the average it seems
probable that the group will be taken
over.

WHAT rs A A

The workman who takes the place of
another on strike is known as a
''scab,' with whom union workmen
will not associate. But what of the
union workman who wears garments
not made by union labors He too is
a scab, even more to be blamed or
pitied than the man, who, in order to
earn a living, takes the place of his
less fortunate brother locked out or
fighting for the principle he has sworn
to uphold. The manufacturer of union
made garments agrees to the conditions
demanded by his employees. He de-
serves their support. Not as a favor
he is justly entitled to it. Therefore,
union men, when buying overshirts OF
overalls, demand the Standard Shirt or
Boss of the Road Overalls, both union
made and therefore worthy of your
confidence. If your dealer does no
carry them, one who does is easily
found. Demand the brand. Adv.-lt

Possibilities.

After having spent several months
Investigating the mineral resources of
the Nevada gold fields, and about two
weeks in the careful study of forma-
tion and general characteristics of this
district, / cannot help but feel that the
possibilities for the same are excep-
tionally good, and 1 have no hesitancy
in recommending this group of claims
to you or your friends as a safe and
reliable mining investment.
Ny opinions are entirely based on
the favoraule mineralized conditions
existing in this territory and the I'M
usual high results of my assays. l
doubt if better results were obtained
on any of the big producers
in the Goldfield district at the time of
their discovery, and certain it is that
no better m~ineralized conditions ex-
listed at the vein out-crop than can be
found along the course of the veins on
your property.
With sufficient capital to properly
develop the property, it is my firm be-
lief that a mine of great value will be
made. Not at any point along this
great mineralized zone of the Nevada
desert does better conditions exist or
more favorable signs of a big producer
being found Samuel G.. Knott.

STOCK EXCHANGE OPENS.
First CAN was Held Monday With Fair
Volume Of Trading

Goldheld brokers have shaken off the
San Francisco incubus which had bur
dened their shoulders ever since Gold
field stocks were placed upon the mar
ket and have established a local ex.
change. 1t is true that the volume of
business thus far transacted is COM
paratively small, but this has been due
to the fact that lack of room has made
1t impossible for all of the members TO
attend the calls at one time. Each day,
however. has recorded an increase in
the amount of trading and when more
~commodious quarters are secured the
business is sure to be commensurate
with the value of Goldfeld and other
Southern Nevada mining securities.
The members of the committee on Der
manent location are now engaged in
seeking adequate accommodations and
hope within the mex week or ten DAYS
to accomplish their purpose. In the in
term informal calls are being held in
a small room on the ground floor Of the
Goldfield bank building. The first call
was held Monday afternoon. the total
record of sales being 10000 shares;
Tuesday a total of 10000 shares were
traded in; Wednesday the sales reach
ed $4,000, and on Thursday a total of
$4,000 shares changed hands. As a rule
trading is brisk and prices are stable.
The exchange starts off with a per-
sonnet of officers and charter members
which assures it's success and warrants
the prediction that within a short time
the prices of Southern Nevada stocks
will be made in the local market in
stead of in far away and a~pathetic San
Francisco. This is as it should be, for
certainly the brokers at the mines are
In a better position to determine the
merits of the various stocks of this vast
gold bearing section han are those at
a point so remote from the scene of
actual operations as the Pacific coast
metropolis. Strikes are being made in
the various properties with frequency
and under the new regime local brokers
are IN a position to either buy or sell
to tn advantage of their clientele long
before the news of a valuable find has
been disseminated at the western sea
board. Eastern money is trending
Goldfeldward these blithesome fall
days, both for investment in mining
property and in mining stocks. and in
most instances Goldfield brokers are
the ones who are making the deals. Out
side brokers are also appreciative of
the advantages offered by the local ex-
change and a number of them have
made application for membership and
are preparing to be represented on the
floor either by agent of by some mem
Der of their firm. The general public is
likewise manifesting a decided interest
IN stock matters since the exchange
was established and now that it is in
direct touch with the market is rapidly
developing a speculative spirit.

AN EMBRYO .RocKEFEILER

Henry Grimshaw, one of the Gold
field News newsboys, is now a land
owner, having this week completed the
erection of a neat two-room cottage
upon a lot on Broadway recently pur-
chased by him. The house and lot rep
resent an outlay of about $3.50, all of
which has been accumulated by the
efforts of this 12-years-old newsboy.
Henry has already rented his house for
the sum of $50 a month and will start
his bank account anew with this week 3
earnings, which augmented by the
monthly rental of his property, should
soon assume substantial proportions

DoRcAs MINING COMPANY.

Arrangements are being made by
the management of the Dorcas Mining
company, which owns 200 acres of
ground in the Southern Nevada min
eral belt, to thoroughly exploit it's ter
ritory during the fall and winter
months.
An unique feature of this company
is the fact that it is being promoted
entirely by women and that its direc-
torate and officers are all of the gentler
sex, and for this reason, marks an in
novation in the mining promotion field
of this state. A number of the women
interested in the enterprise have had
experience in the gold and silver camps
of Colorado and are by no means no
vices in their knowledge of geology
and ore-formations.
In the Goldfeld mining district the
company owns five claims, known as
the Las Delicias group, adjoining the
Sassy Sal. The necessary work for re-
cording has been performed on each of
the claims but as yet no attempt has
been made to develop the ground. An
outcrop 10 feet in width traverses the
property but assays are of nominal
value.
In the Bullfrog district the company
has located four claims known as the
| DJo-aa uyhioh n a1Iooanf fn
the Mayfower, and are contiguous to
properties on which strikes have re-
Gently been made. Three claims in the
| Tokop district, the Ora Grande and
Annie No. l and No. 2, are also held
by the Dorcas people. The surface
showing on this portion of their hold
ings is perhaps the best of the entire
acreage. A 3-foot dixie of free-milling
quartz that assays $25 in gold to the
ton, passes through the group for a dis
tance of 900 feet.
The company was incorporated IN
May, 1905, under the laws Of Arizona
in the amount of 1000, 900 shares of the
par value of 81 each, 100000 shares of
which are held as treasury stock. The
proceeds from the sale of this portion
of the capitalization will be utilized
for the prosecution of development
work. All location work and surveys
have been completed and the corpora
ton is free from debt. Preparations
are being made to dispose of 100000
shares of the treasury stock in the
near future.
The officers of the company are:
Mrs. Elizabeth Smith, president; DR..
Gentz-Fuller, vice president, and DIR.
Christina A. Clegg, secretary and
treasurer.

gather the art of the world to which
we can point with pride.
~ am proud to state that j have
mining interests in Southern Nevada
and am only sorry that they are not
more extensive. That they are not is
no fault of mine and is also an omis-
sion which can be easily remedied. |
an clad to meet the people of Goldtield
fer / can readily gather from the per.
sonality OF those with whom | have
come in contact that you are of that
class of people who do things and
accomplish results. After all 1T is not
so much a question of a man having
money, either through inheritance or
through a combination of circum-
stances, for it is the personal effort
that a man puts in that counts. In the
past few decades the great fortunes OF
the world have been accumulated In
manufacturing, but to me 1T appears
certain that the great ortunes OF the
future will be made in mining.
81 will take this opportunity OF say
ing that although you nave given me
your seat of honor and called upon me
first TO speak, / think that the real
honor is due to our old friend, John.
IL Tx TO speak OF MI. Mchdne, hos as
a man that brought a proposition to me
l-becansv the first time / saw him l
said to DIR. Ward, There is an honest
man. I never saw him before. He told
me that he had a certain proposition,
and l said, Il will take all that is left.
Now, I am proud that Mr.. McKane has
been so successful. / hope it is not GO
ing to spoil him-I am afraid it will,
because I have found that when these
fellows get rich they don't work. /
hope that McKane will be an excep-
ton. But I am proud of his success; !
am proud of his p~osition-but / am
pTouder still to claim him as a friend,
and i hope there is no man here that
does not feel about him as / do. He
deserves your friendship, your sup
port; he deserves everything that you
can give him, because he is enterpris-
ing, pushing, and has the confidence of
everybody"
Mr.. McKane responded pleasantly to
Mr.. Schwab's remarks and at the con-
~clusion of his address the gathering
disDanded and the members of the
Schwab party departed for Bullfrog.
