that time we only had three assays
made. and consequently were ignor-
ant Of the real value of the property
until it passed by option into the con-
troll of Gregg and Burns. realize
now that we made a mistake In this,
for had we known what we owned
we could have secured triple the price
we did.
The claims sold contain an ex-
posed ore body of 200 feet wide by
400 feet long. giving from samples
and mill tests product that averages
$3.50 per ton in gold. There is a
three-foot dyke in this big body that
runs approximately slOO per ton, with
small streaks in il that show values
up to $4,000 per ton.
This is not supposition; II is the
result of actual tests having been
made by the keen mining factors who
are in possession of the property to-
day. While | am satisfied with the
deal we made, yet II We had dreamed
that we had such a property we would
have been in a position to exact
larger price. But since 1t is as IL is.
am glad to know that Messrs. Gregg
and Burns will make the fortune they

We still own the adjoining property

Five different veins traverse the
claims we sold and continue into the

most important mining deal was
closed at Vegas Monday, when J. f.
Phillips, of Denver, Colorado. pur.
chased from the Catlin Bros. a group
of ten claims 90 miles south on the
road to Searchlight. The purchase
includes the Quo Vadis claim. on
which fabulously rich discovery was
made a few weeks ago. The price
that Mr.. Phillips has contracted to
pay is said to be nearly 100000. II
is this wonderfully rich discovery of
gold ore that made the sale, and set
all this part of Nevada wild with ex-
citement. stimulating prospecting to
the degree that 1t is difficult to get
animals to carry the people into the
field. Everything for miles around
has been located and other deals of
less magnitude are under way.
Mr.. J. r. McKinnie and o. II. Shoup,
representing V. 2. Reed of Colorado
Springs, Colorado. arrived few days
after Mr.. Phillips, and 1t is believed
they are interested in the deal, though
this statement is not confirmed by the
latter gentleman, who Is reticent as
TO his associates. The vein on the
Quo Vadis claim can be traced by out
crop over 800 feet. intersecting and
crossing other fissure veins. At one
point about 250 feet from the inter
section of another much larger vein
running at right angles this ledge
stands boldly up above surface,
weather stained, the quartz of which
is literally filed with free gold and
any kind of assays can be obtained
into the thousands of dollars. No
work has been done and no effort
made to determine the width or length
of this rich chute, but it appears to

THE Cr1nnNs IDEA.

The recent denomination Of Cover
nor A. B. Cummins at Des Moines, Ia,
August 2, by a large majority over
George D. Perkins, has a peculiar sig
nifcance. Iowa Is Overwhelmingly re-
publican in politics, and yet there has
recently been developed what is
known as the ''Cummins idea" That
idea is that the tariff should be re-
yised, and the protective feature eli
minated as far as trust products are
concerned, and reciprocity treaties
favorable to American trade be form
ed with other countries.
The opposite school Of thought is
denominated the "standpat" idea
That is, let well enough alone and
don't tinker with the tariff" The
Cummins idea is making 7reat head
way in the agricultural west, but is
fiercely opposed by the manufacture

the east, and is getting very tired OF
the yoke Of this bondage. Reasonable
republicans believe that it never was
intended to make a fetch Of the tariff
