OF SILVER.

Fully one-third of the silver produced
in the United States is from the copper
ores, as a by-product, says Mining
World. These copper ores do not con
tam enough silver to he classed as
paying silver ores. Montana, by far,
supplies the largest amount of these
ores, about all of which comes from the
copper mines at Butte. These deposits
occur in assure veins ~traversing granite
rocks, and are believed to Re of ea-lv
Tertiary age. Arizona copper ores car
ry hut very little silver. However, the
United Verde ores contain a certain
amount of 10th gold and silver. The
copper mines of California produce
some silver. Utah comes next to Mon
tana in the production of silver from
copper ores, most of which comes from
the Bingham ores, trt a part from the
old mining district of Tintic.

"Did you aver hear of the geologist

New Hampshire rock formations to be

N WE'LL OF CAMP.
Editor o'Brien Tells Why Goldfeld
Has a Future.

"'How is G~oldfeldf' Why il never
was letter" said James f. C'Brien,
the editor and owner of the Goldfeld
News, who is stopping over a day in
Carson on his way to the coast. "The
only ones / know of who are worrying
over the present and future of Gold
field are outsiders who have not n dol
lar invested there, or newcomers who
are disappointed because their dollar
didn't grow to a thousand during their
first six hours sleep.
''In the last day or two / have sew

Mo- am met with an i%neredulous
look. But it is a fact nevertheless
that, while there is not the hustle of
four months ago, there are more men
than ever at work. The older and
deeper mines are showing up better
with development and new strikes of
shipping ore in paying quantities are
continually being made which are ex-
tending the producing area in every
direction.
at is true that less ore is being
shipped than was the case last winter
when the leasers were crowding pro
duction to the limit of their short per
iods of time, but those mines are now
reing opened up by the companies in
business like fashion with an eye to
the future rather than to the imme-
date present. Mills are running now
also which treat ore which would other
wise have been shipped or laid on the
dumps.
"Then again, many operators are
awaiting the advent Of the railroad
as they have beer unoficially informed
that a shipping and treatment rate will
be made that will enable them to ship
ore at a profit which, at present rates,
is impossible. The electric plant which
by September will furnish power from

tor in the development or

"The recent strikes in the Ajax of
the Dominion company to the north;
the Gold Bar, to the south, and the
Gold Coin, Of the Jumbo Extension
company, to the east, have extended
the area of shipping mines by miles.
Rich strikes made at Red mountain
still farther east promise to add still
more shippers to the list, while a pan
ming l saw this week from a prospect
four miles west of Goldfeld justifies
the suspicion that this prospect will
soon be a shipper.

stroyed by fire. will be rebuilt of stone

SILVER PEAK DISTRICT.

"Something is going to happen over
in that Silver Peak district n of
these days." was a remark made by a
mining man of Goldfield on the street
"a few days ago, and n of the old
timers of that camp who was known
throughout Nevada and California 40
years ago joined in the conversation.
He informed the little crowd that the
Drinkwater mine had produced over
So, 900, 900 before the mining world
knew that there were such mining
camps as Goldfeld, Tonopah or Bullfrog
in southwestern Nevada. Scores of
Goldfeld investors are already inter
ested in new ground that has been
staked all around the old producers
and it is surprising to see the kind
of ore they are daily exhibiting on the
streets. The assays show that nearly
all of the values are in gold. Fred Voll-
mar, who has been in the camp since
1877, knows it thoroughly, and recently
with associates began development
work on an old location known as the
Yellowstone, and there is no trouble
in getting assays on five feet of quartz
which is showing in the bottom of his
shallow shaft that will run as high
as $40. A general sample of the free
milling ore without sorting will run
better than $40.

wiped out st that time.
"You cannot shake the faith of the
old-timers of Goldfeld. They had the
faith when the camp was improved
when they were taking a chance. You
cannot down it now when Goldfield has
proven better than their most sanguine
hopes and when they have hundreds of
dollars to hack their judgment where
they had a cent in the early days.

Sgstem Itself on Trial

In the forthcoming trial of young
Meriwether it is really the system
that will be on trial The fight
which occurred was in accordance
with the code of honor as Annapolis
knows il, but it was distinctly in
violation of the law and of naval
regulations. 1t was conducted ac-
cording to Queensberry rules. and
was TO have been fought to a finish.
Every detail surrounding the affair
was handled in accordance with the
code. But from the very instant
where the cadet officers permitted
the constestants to absent themselve:
it was in violation of regulations.
The practice of fighting has pre-
vailed at the naval Academy from
the date of its establishment. 1t is
prohibited. of course. by the regu-
lations, and whenever detected the
guilty ones are punished. The sec
onds in the Branch-Meriwether
fight, for example, have received
seventy-five demerits each and they
may be punished more severely
when the evidence is all in. The
commissioned officers at the acad-
emy assert that the code of honor"
as 1t exists today is a mysterious
thing and they do not care to know
much about 1T. Perhaps nine out
of ten of them believe that fight
ing is a necessary evil. They know
of no other method OF settling seri-
Gus personal affairs affecting a
mans honor or courage. Yet they
are bound to prevent fights and to
punish fighters. So they avoid ac-
quiring knowledge OF the code regu-
lating such encounters.
The excuse for it all seems 10 be
custom. Custom is superior tC
law, apparently. The fact that the
cadets at Annapolis are under defin.
ite laws and regulation is OF no i'm.
portance. Naval officers seem to fee
that these fist fights through which

foundation of the Academy. are in
dispensable. They had the same

management that the finish was
never fatal. At least I have never
heard of any West Point fight that
resulted fatally.
"The class fights were usually the
result OF what the first class men
regarded as freshness on the part
of their juniors-or occasionally the
result Of the turning of the worm,
the rebellion OF one of the plebs
against the ogerbearing insolence of
an older student. They were rarely
between the individuals concerned.
If a first year man considered that
his dignity as such had been fiouted.

spective classes were as a rule equal

as nearly so as the boys could make
them. And there have been some
very pretty fights therein the days
that were. Lately, however, the au-
thorities have shut down on them,

belief they really don't happen any

Traditions s the Thinq

This may be true of West Point,
but at Annapolis they evidently do
happen" And there are plenty OF
naval officers who defend them, and
consider them ESSENTIAL to the welfare
of the Academy. Apparently tradi-
ton is Of more force than civiliza-
ton. They always have happened,
therefore they always shall happen.
Almost from the beginning of the
navy there has been some code OF
honor among midshipmen. as well as
among officers. References to a
code of honor" run through a ma
jority of the books in the literature
Of the navy dealing with its GUS
toms. In the early half of the last
century affairs of honor were settled
in many instances by pistol dueling

who was a midshipman at the Naval
Academy in 1867.
Mr.. Benjamin is in a position to
speak with authority and gives what
seems to be a conservative, and what
certainly is not a pre1udiced, view Of
the Naval Academy from its incep-
tion right down to the present.
In one chapter relating to dueling
and early formative influences in the
lives of midshipmen, Mr.. Benjamin
makes this reference to the Naval
Academy:
Although dueling in the navy had
become nominally questionable, the
forty-one midshipmen revived it at
the school. One pleasant SUMMER s
