ming north and south across No. 2 and 8, and carrying in it's
center the Mother Lode, which has proven to carry gold in
properties above and below us.
On the Votto No. 2 we have the extension of the ledge of
the old Nevada mine, which many years ago produced heavily
in lead and silver. This ledge, as well as a parallel ledge rum
ming through No. 8, are both crossed by the Mother Lode and
there ought to be big ore bodies at these two intersections.
There is also a ledge on the Votto No. 4.
We have started sinking at the intersection of the Mother
Lode and the Nevada extension ledge, and this shaft is now
down 80 feet.
We intend to sink to so feet and then we will drift to catch
the ore chute.
We also own the Amalie group of five claims, about one
mile north of the Copper Carbonate group. Only the location
work is done on these claims. Rock taken from the location
ounces of silver per ton, showing that it will be we'll worth
while to sink a shaft on this property. Especially, as from the
nearness of finds on other properties, we may expect to also
find lead associated with the gold and silver in this ground.
Besides these three groups, which we own outright, we
own a half interest in the Helvetia group of four claims, stu
ated about s miles west of Goldfeld. On the Helvetia claim
proper we have a shaft down Ill feet. The rock in this shaft

like the rock of the celebrated Hayes-Monnette lease, which is
now producing about $4,000 per day. And we must have high
values directly underneath, or very near, to this shaft. We
want to sink this shaft to about $50 feet and then drift for the
ore body, if we do not strike it directly in the shaft. We are
the more justified in continuing work here at this point, be-
cause the shaft has lately entered into a cross ledge, giving us
Lutte certainty that we must have high values within easy reach.
In an open cut on the Aurora claim, adjoining the Helvetia
claim, we have found a ledge which assays from $160 to $500
in gold per ton.
We are so fortunately situated that we have three good
mines ALMOST IN SIGHT, one on the Copper Carbonate
group, one on the Votto group and one on the Helvetia group,
not considering for the present the possibilities on the Aurora

CARsoNITEs HAVE GOOD
OPINION OF 0oLrFIELDERs

Carson City is rapidly taking on rush
airs after a quiescence of many years,
says the News. There is a hustle and
activity at present that is unusual and
1t is IN the increase.
What attracts particular attention is
the number of khaki clad people on the
streets and in the hotels. They are min
ing men who are attracted here from all
parts of the state by the discoveries at
Ramsey and other nearby camps. Many
of the visitors are from Goldfeld and
they are the energetic men who made
that camp, men who will take chances,
who are boosters and who carry fat
rolls with them and are willing to pay
for a claim that strikes their fancy
without haggling over the price.
The difficulty at present Is in getting
to and from the camp, which is situated
about thirty-ive miles from this city.
The road all the way to Ramsey is hard
and level and automobiles make splen-
time. The trouble, however, is that
there are not enough autos to carry the
rush. The other evening Messrs. Meder
& Lennon had orders for six more ma
chimes h they could supply.

Is Cents Per Share

Is Cents Per Share
Considering our prospects and the actual value of our
properties, our shares are certainly worth much more than the
price we ask for them, but our object at the present time is not
to force our shares up to their real value, but to place them at
such a figure that the price itself must prove an inducement to
the purchase of this stock.
The management of the company is in reliable hands, be-
cause both the president and the vice-president are practical
and experienced mining men. The headquarters of the CON-
pany is at Goldfeld, Nevada, near the scene of its operations;
We have given you all the details so that you are enabled
to decide Understandings and AT ONCE, whether this propo-
sition offers you the right kind of an investment.
You may not be in the habit of ~bothering your mind in the
middle of the summer season about mining investments, but as
we feel that WE CANNOT AFFORD to lie idle until fall, know
ing as we do that THREE FORTUNES are almost within our
grasp, so also do we feel that YOU CANNOT AFFORD to miss
this opportunity for investment, even if the weather is hot.
AS soon as we have enough money on hand we will stop the
sale Of shares. The stock will be listed on the Exchange this
fall
Please send your remittance AT ONCE for the number of
shares you want. You can afford to be PROMPT in your ac-
ton, for you know very well that shares are not usually sold at
the price of fifteen cents, where SO much work has been done
and success is so close at hand, and you also know very well
that it would be VERY POOR BUSINESS POLICY, INDEED,
on our part to sell more shares AT THIS PRICE. than is abso-

of the competitive area is shown by the

the freight rate. the price OF such oil
IS usually from two cents to five cents

able profit upon refined oil is about one
half a cent per gallon. II is clear that

At the beginning of the investiga-
ton, he says, the Standard Oil Co.
denied that It had obtained in recent
years, or was now obtaining any re-
bate or other transportation discrim-
nation as against its competitors, and
yet, he says, a most careful re-

leads to the conclusion that the Stand

ROBBERS TAKE
LETTERS BONDS

Chicago, May 8.-Burglars early Mon
day entered the office of Joseph Letter,
who became famous several years ago,
when he attempted to corner the wheat
market, blew open two vaults and es-
capped with bonds said to be valued at
$25, 900.
The building in which the Office is
located is within half block of po-
lice headquarters.
Broke Door with sledgehammer.
The men had entered the office, 81
Clark street, by breaking the door
with a sledgehammer, which it is
thought by the police had been COW
cred with rubber OF cloth, in order to
muffie the sound.
With this unique tool they knocked
of the combination of the massive
vault near the door and with the aid
Of a cold chisel soon had the doors
open. Then the entire vault was care

boxes, the thieves forced them open,

HARD COAL MINERS
WILL NOT STRIKE

Scranton, Pa, May There will be
no strike Of the anthracite miners.
The anthracite miners, who have
been idle since the old contracts ex-
pired, April /, will return to work at
orce. The disturbance which threat
ened to put over 10000 men out Of
work has been adjusted by the accept
ance by the miners of the terms made
by the mine operators.
The miners scale committee Satur-
day recommended to the convention
in session here that the miners re-
turn to work under the scale of 1908,
which was the strike commissions
award.
The report Of the scale committee
was adopted by the convention after
55 minutes discussion. The conven-
ton adjourned until Tuesday to give
the scale committee opportunity to con-
fer with the operators.
President John Mitchell and Nation
al Secretary-Treasurer Wilson and
others of the leaders who addressed the
convention of the miners, Saturday,
advised acceptance before the report Of
the scale committee was presented
The suspension order will be raised,
and the miners will go back to work
on the terms which the operators were
willing to have continued, and will
later seek to obtain through the con-
Citation board or by arbitration the

WOULD WE'D The
POPE'S SISTER

Rome, May 9.-Maria Sarto, the
younger of the pope's two unmarried
sisters, who is very near 60 years old,
has just received an offer Of marriage,
which, as in the case Of relative Of
a reignng, sovereign, was made direct
to the pope himself.
The proposal was in the form of
letter, and was from an American who
signed himself Weber or Wedder,
claiming to be a Catholic, very rich,
a bachelor, and who wrote that moth
ing in this world would make him hap
pier than permission 10 marry the
pope's younger sister.
1t was decided to have Archbishop
Farley of New York locate the lover
and tell him his suit was in vain.
Mexico Missouri message., 1906-05-10

thus already contained in the bill,
the president would insist on its be-
ing put in, because, unless 1t is con-
tanned, the bill undoubtedly would
be void.
Therefore, Incorporating the ALI
son amendment under such circum-
stances would do anything but good,
and, as there is an honest doubt on
the part of some sincere adherents
of the bill whether it is or is not al
ready, by implication, contained in
the bill, the president is clearly Of
the opinion that the Allison amend
ment should be put in, and this with
out regard to whether other amend
ments are or not adopted.
"If the Hepburn bill, therefore,
passes in this form, which is practi-
cally the exact form in which it
passed the house, 1t will be satisfac-
tory to the president, who, from the
beginning, had stated that the Hep
burn bill itself would be satisfactory,
But the president would like, If, in
addition to the Allison amendment
the so-called Long and Overman
amendments were adopted. While
the president regards these amend
ments with favor, and would like to
see them adopted, he does not in the
least regard them as vital, and feels
that the Hepburn bill would still be
in excellent shape, even without
them"

Washington, May 5.-What amounts
practically to an agreement of the ex-
listing differences concerning court fea-
lures Of the railroad rate bill has been

lison will offer an amendment confer
ring jurisdiction on the circuit courts

The amendment will not suggest to

shall be confined to constitutional ques-
tions OF whether 1t shall be an inquiry
into the business or reasonableness Of
the rates fixed by the commission.
LOnE-AldFich and Crane Agree.
Senator Long, who made the princi-
pal legal argument for the house bill,
and Senators Aldrich and Crane, the
leaders in the movement seeking an
amendment providing for a broad court
review, expressed themselves as favor
ing the amendment, and both factions
are agreed that the compromise is sat

Whether the conservatives or the
radicals have won a victory is a ques-
ton. The agreement, in a measure, is

regarded as political. 1t is believed
that now practically the entire repub-
lican strength of the senate win be cast
for the bill, whereas under the long
continued estrangement it was conced-

ocratic party would be in position to
