LeadvilIe District Expanding.

Il regard the mineral discovery OF
the Mammoth as the most important
made in the Leadville district in the
past twenty years" This is the view
taken of the Big Evans discovery by
one of the districts most prominent
operators. and we are inclined to think
that 1t is substantially correct says
the Leadville Democrat. 1t would not
be surprising to see in the next two
years an output OF 1000 tons per day
from the section now attracting SO
much attention. 1t is needless to state
that this Mammoth discovery will be
the forerunner of other mining opera
tons in that section. 1t is understood
that at least two other shafts are pro-
jected, and with the geological knowl-
edge thus gained the general course
and extent of the ore shoots will be de-
termined.
II one will take a map of the district
and examine the Big Evans section
he will be interested in observing the
distance from the Mammoth to the
nearest producing property. In fact,
1t is SO far to the north from the great
producing area that the opening of a
mine here Is practically an epochmak-
ing event. 1t carries the line of the
productive area considerably over
mile to the north, and opens a field of
prospecting which is remarkable in ex-
tent.
One Of the most interesting features
OF the development OF the Leadville
district is to be noted in the slow but
steady widening of her known min
eralized areas. Twenty years ago the
producing mines were confined to
Prayer, Carbonate and Iron hills, and
the fringe of Rock hill, with one or two
other properties on Breeze hill, but
these were so isolated that they formed
no geological continuity with other
portions of the district. Our expansion
since that time in four directions. each
year seeing some portion Of the coun-
try compelled to yield up precious Sc
crets, is one of the most hopeful augur.
les for the future. And the end Is not
yet.

TO PROSECUTE LYNcHERs.
Action Of Governor Folk Scares Mis-
souri, Mob.

Springfield, Mo.-Up to noon Mon
day men who had been in the mob of
lynchers made no secret of it. They
stood upon the street corners and
joked each other about it, but when
word came that Governor Folk had Of
fered 5000 for the conviction of any
member of the mob, and when Roscoe
Patterson, prosecuting attorney, de-
clared openly that he intended to work
for the arrest and conviction of every
nan concerned in the lynching, there
vas uneasiness.
At noon it became known that twen-
ty-five warrants charging murder in
the first degree were in the hands of
tae sheriff
After the arrests the lynchers be-
came alarmed and left the streets. Be-
fore dark the square was deserted and
tonight it is absolutely quiet.
Two negroes held up young white
man and lady companion Monday

Earthquake In Eormosa.

Tokio-One hundred and nine per-

and twenty-five injured in the earth
quake in the southern part OF
the island Of Formosa last Sat
urday, but further details. It is
expected, will swell the death roll,
as the shock was more severe than
that OF March 18th. The town OF Ka-

the houses which escaped destruction
in the former disturbance being now
in ruins. Doko and several other
towns and villages were also affected
BY landslides which have completely
changed the topography Of the country.

Active Work at Ouray.

More than thirty men are now en-
ployed at the Camp Bird mill repairing
a part of the damage done by the slide
and preparing for the reconstruction
of the mill, says the Denver News cor
respondent The new mill is to be
erected about 100 yards from the site
of the old one and in place where it
is believed there is no possibility of
slides. The capacity is to be consider
ably enlarged and will be up-to-date in
every particular. The former mill was
constructed by ]. w. Benson. of Den
yer, in 1898, at cost of nearly $500. 900.
The capacity of the former mill was
240 tons a day and that of the new
structure will be at least 300 tons. A
contract has been made with a local
lumber merchant for 175,000 feet of
lumber to be delivered as soon as pos
sible. Hauling the lumber has been
commenced. More than 100000 feet of
lumber will be required to replace the
old mill. The former mill was oper-
ated by $50 horsepower Corliss en-
gine, with three $50 horsepower boil
ers. Seventy stamps were operated
and four fve-foot Huntingtons did the
regrinding.
The towers of the tramway which
were torn out by the slides. are being
repaired and in all probability the mine
will be in operation before the mill is
completed. Several transformers have
arrived in this city for the new mill
and other machinery is on the way.
The total production of ore for the
year of 1905. in Ouray county was 81
1892 ,387.14 and the net profits of the
Camp Bird for 1905 was 81 $40, ,495. The
property changed hands in June. 1901,
at which time the Camp Bird Limited,
paid Thomas +. Walsh 100000 cash
and agreed to give him twenty-five per
cent. of the net earnings Of the mine
after the company had been re-im-
bursed for its cash purchase price until
he had received $2,000O00. In 1905
the value of the ore reserves was in
creased by S150,000. Last year Walsh
received $685., 900 as his percentage and
there is still more than $1000,000 due
him. Eighty thousand shares of Imo-
gene gold mine stock was purchased
last year for $4,000 and after declar-
ing, and paying, a dividend over thirty
per cent. there remained in the treas
ury q balance of 81 1,GS7 200. The cost
per ton, which includes practically
every expense in connection with the
operation of the mine amounts to
about $1t. which leaves an average
profit of $22.

The output of the Transvaal gold
mines for March was 443,723 ounces.
valued at $9,934,075, which constitutes
n new record. being 1929 ounces over
the previous highest monthly output.
Silver apd silver-lead mines are
again prominent among the dividend
payers. Bunker Hill and Sullivan, in
the Occur dAlene district. paid $780,
900 March 5th. making $6,066,000 up
to date. Leadvilles Iron Silver group,
with concentration plant in this city,
paid 100000 on the second OF April,
making its total dividends $3,450, 900.
The April declaration is 20 cents
on each share. and twice what 1t was

smeIter Day Of Eight Hours.

Beginning May 1st the American
Smelling & Refining Company will ex-
tend the eight-hour day to all of the
employees in it's five Colorado plants
who have to do with the furnace opera
itions, says the Denver News. Twenty
five hundred men engaged in the
,smelters will be affected by the new
policy. Only the ash, coal and ore
haulers and the unloaders, all of whom
are employed outside of the smelters
and are unskilled labor, are, for the
most part, not included in the new
system.
Franklin Guiterman, general man.
ager of the company's smelters in this
state, made the announcement yester
day, adding that the action is voluntary
on the part of the company and made
with the idea that the corporation de-
sires to better the condition of the
smeltermen.
This means a marked increase in
our payrolls, too," said Mr.. Guiterman.
The men are advanced in wages with
a reduction in hours The advance will
be about twenty per cent. to all en-
ployes. Only about ten per cent. of our
men are not affected. They are the
unloaders and the like, who work on
the outside and have nothing to do
with the furnaces. Let me say that
the eight-hour day and the advance
in wages will have nothing to do with
the bonus we inaugurated last year.
Those employees in the smelter who
comply with the requirements of the
bonus will receive five per cent. of
their salary just the same out of the
earnings of the company"
Heretofore the, smelters have been
on a twelve-hour system, except where
the eight law operated and re-
quired shorter days for those who are
employed in the most hazardous work
about the furnaces. The adoption of
the eight-hour day will mean that
three shifts will be worked in the
smelters. 1t will mean that larger
number of men will be employed in
order to keep up with the capacity of
the plants. 1t will mean, also, Il
twenty per cent. average advance in
wages, according to Mr.. Guiterman.
Those who have been receiving SO a
day for twelve hours work will get
S2.40 for eight hours. The increase in
the payroll monthly will be about
twenty-five per cent.
Three years ago the company
adopted plan of giving to each of its
employees, from general manager to
foreman. a five per cent. bonus on their
annual salaries, under certain condi-
tions. The employees in the Offices were
included in the system and last year all
employees in the smelters were made
participants in the system. During
three years nearly half million dol
lars has been distributed in this way.
1t has worked to the advantage of the
company in many ways, according to
Mr.. Guiterman.
Better service has been rendered the
company. A better feeling between
employer and employe has been
brought about.

The Modern Rush.

Our trouble in all this tremendous
rush. race and fight of the last genera
ton for supremacy in commercial af-
fairs is the sinking of true principles of
positive honesty, writes correspondent
of the New York Times. Anything
which got business passed. By advice
of counsel" every devious device to get
the better of the other fellow, if it
stopped before murder, has been ac-
ceptable. Eminent men of affairs lack
the honest courage to regard the plain,
simple over-reaching as what it really
Is. dishonesty and sharp practice. On
the other hand. the plain man coming
up by political accident has stood ready
to make a little something" and Sir
Robert Walpole's epigram, Every man
has his price," has stood as a working
fact. And men in executive places have
met the situation, took the world as it
was and worked it, There is law
enough on the statute books to cover
every case known-not more law Is
needed, but clear cut, upright measur-
ing OF the right and wrong of things by
the standard of the eternal truth voiced
in the Ten Commandments, and this ap-
plies to each man, woman or child,
whether in high position or low. If
strong and able man stands in a high
place may that man possess the cour-
age to speak out at the first
tendency toward debauching men
for the price and not snicker
ever it as a good thing and sharp
business, which brings money profit,
but blight to the soul. This country
is not going to the dogs-we are likely
TO do better.

NEWS FROM The MINES and MILLS
Low Grade in Nevada.

Goldheld will never realize it's great.
est development until it gets down to
milling it's medium and low-grade ores,
says the Goldfield (Nev.) News. This
fact is not peculiar to Goldfield more
than to any other mining camp. OF
course, while values near the surface
continue to run into picture figures,
little attention will be paid to the mill
ing question; but the time will come,
and perhaps before a great while, ac-
cording to present indications, when
study must be given to the milling
processes best adapted to the ores of
this region. While much high-grade
rock is being produced, enormous bod
les of milling ores ranging from $50 to
500 are being opened up and left in
the mines to await the coming of the
milling era.
Cripple Creek was once a high-grade
camp and nearly it's entire production
ran above $3.50 to the ton. Within the
past few years, however, the average
grade mas fallen to slightly below the
$50 mark, and still the total cash out
put of Cripple Creek to-day is larger
than ever before in it's history, averag-
v-'pVOpVpV
result has been brought about by the
introduction of efficient processes
which treat ore at very low cost.
Most of the ore of the Creek has been
treated at custom mills, located either
in the district or at Colorado Springs
or Florence, and largely at the latter
two places. But several of the larger
mines are now preparing to install
mills of their own. The Findley is one
of these mines, and in the last annual
statement of the company the follow
lowing significant statement was
made:
I'm arriving at this decision" i. e.,
to install its own mill, consideration
was given to the fact that transporta-
tion and treatment charges on our ore
last year was S1S2,233.S9, or $500 per
ton.
Eight dollars and twenty cents would
appear to be pretty cheap. but this in
cludes transportation charges to Colo
RADIO Springs. The report further says:
1T is the opinion of your directors
that within two years. ores will be
treated by mills located right at the
mines at not over $3.50 per ton"
The enormous possibilities opened
up to Goldtield when processes similar
to those in Cripple Creek are adopted
Tor this camp. are beyond the most
vivid imagination. 1t means millions
year for generations, and commun-
ity here of many times its present pop
ulation.
The milling era is scarce dawning.
yet several of our mines, notably the
Combination, are treating their own
ores. This mine is milling ores run
ming as low as $40. and the time will
come when lesser grade can be prof
itably handled. And what the Combi-
nation is doing others will do, and in
few years 1t is reasonable to predict
that Goldfield will be camp of many
mines with many mills.
