quent grafton, dwelling upon the OPP
portunities afforded American citizens
in a country of boundless resources un-
der free institutions. His discourse was
in keeping with the day and was re-
ceived with great applause. He was
brief and when he had done h throng
regretfully moved of to watch the foot
races and the drilling contests.
At the Montezuma club the members
were receiving. The rooms were taste
fully and deliberately hung with the ma
tional colors and with fresh lowers. A
buffet luncheon was served and all day
large parties of ladies and their escorts
congregated there. At $3.50 led by the
band in full swing almost the entire
population proceeded to the ball grounds
where the great stand was filed to over
flowing and the crowds still came.
Autos overloaded were there. eQues-
TRANS and seated along the fences great
solid phalanxes of those whom the stand
could not accommodate. The game be-
tween Tonopah and Goldheld was good
and while resulting in a victory by a
large margin C1O-1) for Goldfield was
really holly contested and filled with
exciting incidents. Both teams played
hard for the purse of $500 and their re-
spective rooters made things highly in
teresting. Throughout the game the
band played at intervals.
The balloon ascension scheduled to
take place after the game was because
of a high wind which sprung up post
poned until Thursday when It was sue
cessfully accomplished.
Upon the return to town the hose cart
races were run on Main street, team
No. 1 carrying OF the honors. An excit-
ing event was the exhibition run by the
chemical engine. The horses plunged
down the street and rounded the corners
swinging the machine furiously while
the spectators ~breathlessly looked for
the ov%erturn of the whole thing.
In the evening the town was brill
iantly illuminated by the vari-colored
electric lights strung about the streets
and from the balcony of the Exploration
Mercantile c~ompany's building the ban
played Internationally many national
and popular airs.
About s o'clock the fireworks began to
trace fiery paths through the sky from
Malapai ridge. The exhibition was SUI
perb and could not nave been more beau
tiful. Later the grand ball of the Car
p~enters' union at the Miners Union hall
was opened. The Montezuma club also
rendered a reception and lance to its
guests and when the great day had
closed another had been added to the
number of occasions that will be long
remembered in Goldfeld.

A within has been installed by the
Gold Bar Leasing company on it's Gold
Bar lease and the shaft is down $50
feet. A nice vein of quartz has been
opened in the shaft bottom and drifting
will commence in a few days.
The Goldfeld Fargo Mining company
which last week took a lease upon the
C. o. D. company's ground has started
work upon a tunnel about 100 feet long
which was driven by previous ~lessees.
In this workings the company is get
ting some very good gold and silver
values. The assays range around $500
and $500 in gold and s or 10 ounces
silver. Working is going ahead steadily
and sinking will soon begin.
A good quartz ledge which returns
assays of about So has just been en-
countered in the shaft of the Detch

c. o. d. company. The ledge was
struck at a depth of $50 feet. All
through the shaft are good stringers

care and forethought.
The Goldheld Daily Sun was repre-
scented by a foat on which was dis

The strike on the Manhattan Com
bination seems to be getting larger IN
proportions and richer in values from
day to day. The last report received
from there, the latter part of this week,
was of an extremely optimistic nature.
A series of assays were taken wednes-
day and forwarded to the home Office
in Goldfeld; these assays run as fol-
lows: Sack sample coarse. s142.41; sack
sample. screenings, sS9.S3; East End
Pay Streak. s117.62; West End Pay
Streak, s59S.s1; screenings, $97S.43. This
appears to be growing into one of the
most important strikes ever made in
the Manhattan district and If it holds
out, the making of a big mine is beyond
p~eradventure.

Junior Member OF w. r. Bond o Co,
After . our of the East, Speaks
OF Conditions a. he Found
Them - Prospects This
Yau. Brf9ht

NJ. s. NJ. warmbath of the Goldheld
firm OF w. F. Bond q Co, returned on
Tuesday from an extensive visit to the
cities Of the east. He visited all of the
large cities, New York. Chicago. Phil
adelphia and Pittsburg. and went up
through southwestern Canada. He re-
ports that the feeling throughout all Of
these places toward Nevada and Ne
vada securities is very good. Mr..
warmbath says:
Although a great number Of the
eastern people are absent in Europe and
summer places along the coast and in
the mountains an exceptionally large
amount of business in mining securities
has been transacted on the curbs at New
York. Philadelphia and Pittsburg. 1t
is also noticeable hat many holders of
stock are holding but for a rise in the
fall. There seems everywhere to pre-
vail n strongly growing confidence in
Goldfeld and the brokers of the east
predict a larger scale of business this
fall than has ever existed before. The
assumption that a very large part of the
investing will be in Nevada securities is
based partly upon the lack of confidence
in eastern securities held by the invest
ing public consequent to the recent ex-
posures along all lines of business"
This Mr.. warmbath feels sure Is bound
to rebound to the benefit of Nevada.
Speaking of Goldfeld he says: IT
found that people everywhere knew of
this camp and everywhere / was piled
with questions touching opportunities
and conditions here. Many fasteners
are waiting for the cool weather to come
personally to Goldfield. Not knowing
the climate they are fearful of the sum
mer. I also found that a great many
regard the present slack season as an
opportunity to get in well on good
stocks"
At Salt Lake Mr.. Warmbath reports
people nave taken quite a fancy to Fair
view where many are heavily interested.
Mr.. warmbath has been absent two
months. The last part of the trip was
hurried so that he might be in town for
the Fourth of July celebration.

PENNSYLVANIA LEASING

The gallows frame and within on the
lease of the Pennsylvania Leasing and
Development company on the Pennsyl-
vania claims is now in running order
and work was resumed on Thursday.
The main shaft is about so feet deep
and the sulphides have just been en-
tered. A crosscut from the 50-foot level
opened up a ledge % feet wide which
assays from a trace to $40. At this
depth the ledge was badly broken up
but it is thought that with additional
sinking it will be caught in better con-
dition. The lessees are highly en-
thusiastic.

WORK AT COLE SPRINGS

A. ]. Antonez and T. M. Davis of
Coles springs are doing the required
work on four claims which they re-
Gently relocated in the vicinity of the
springs. The ground has been named
the Dahlonego group and the %locators
exhibit some fine looking quartz taken
from the surface. There seems to be a
great deal of ground within the limits
of the lGodfeld district which will be
valuable property at no distant date,
which,, like these claims, is open to re-
location. Particularly is this true of
the country around the springs.

IN PASSENGER RATES

Or the first of July the Tonopah e.
Goldheld Railroad company will reduce
It's fares from 10 to 5 cents per mile.
This sweeping reduction of 20 per cent
will be in harmony with that of the
Southern Pacific to go into effect on the
same date.
1t will mean that the fare from Nina
to Tonopah instead of being $3.50 will
be approximately $500; from Min to
Goldheld from 50 to $3.50; from Tono-
pah to Goldheld from SO to $40.

ready for a hoist preparatory to sink

The Goldfield news. [volume] (Goldfield, Nev.) 1904-1911, 1906-07-07

We want to KEEP ON WORKING and to do so we must
have money.
Who are we? We are THE GOLDEN FOUR MINING co,
OF GOLDFIELD, NEW, incorporated under the laws OF
Arizona with a capitalization of $1,OOOOOO, divided into I,oOo-
900 shares at the par value of $100 each, of which 5O0,OoO
shares are treasury stock. The shares are full paid and non
assessable.
We own the Copper Carbonate group OF nine CLAIMS,
twelve miles west of Goldfeld. On the original Copper Car
Donate claim we have a shaft down AZ feet. Up to II feet we
encountered stringers and small pockets Of ore, which assayeo
from sos to $1O8 in gold, silver and copper per ton. Inc VEN
dipped into the wall at 27 feet. A vein In the location shaIt' d
little distance from there, dips towards the vein that went out
of the working shaft, and where these two come together there
must be the beginning of the main ore body. We want to SINK
the working shaft to rs feet, then drift towards these veins.
On the Red Lion claim, which is the upper extension OF IL
Original Copper Carbonate, we have found strangers aSSayhs
up to $127.4O per ton in gold, silver and copper.
On the Copper Carbonate No. 4, we have found ore IN the
location hole, which assays $685. per ton IN golo' silver aa
copper. e@ ua
On the Copper Carbonate No. 3, we have an iron leuge Q
feet wide, with traces of gold, silver and copper.
And on the Copper Carbonate No. 2, we have the conunua-
ton of a wide iron stained ledge coming from the Aion
claim. And also a narrow vein OF copper, golo u shSei W.
running over towards the Original Copper carbonate
We have, therefore, conclusive proof that there is a Ds
body of copper, gold and silver ore on these nVe clalms' oo"
prising 100 acres, and this body may at deptn eA0eno mou
the other four claims at the foot of these hills.
Most of the samples we have assayed run from Q y =
cent in copper and one of the samples carried as high as $zzl ID
gold and SO ounces in silver per ton.
From the above it will be seen that in sinking ms snai' on
the Original Copper Carbonate we are not only eApe''ine ~
reach an immense ore body, but an ore body tnat muS o"i'
very high values.
Our companv also owns the Votto group of four claims
about a half mile east of the Copper Carbonate claims inoe
of the claims running east and west, and the Votto NO l run

claim and the Amalie group of claims.
Either one of these three mines may come within reach in
a very short time, and work on all three of these places ought
to be PUSHED VIGOROUSLY NOW, just because success
eem so NEAR TO US. But our treasury is exhausted and as
we must have money to carry on the work, we are now offering
some of our stock at

ming north and south across No. 2 and 3, and carrying in its
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 run
ming through No. 3, 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
hole on the Amalie claim No. 1 assayed SOC in gold and 5 As
ounces of silver per ton, showing that it will be well 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 Helyetia group of four claims, stu
ated about s miles west of Goldfeld. On the Helvetla claim
proper we have a shaft down Ill feet. The rock in this shaft
has lately changed from limestone to quartz, with sulphide of
iron in it. 1t assays only 81 go per ton. But looks very much
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
an intersection of two mineralized veins and the almost abso-
Lutte certainty that we must have high values within easy reach.
In an open cut on the Aurora claim, adjoining the Helvetla
claim, we have found a ledge which assays from $16O 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

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 vce-president are practical
and experienced mining men. The headquarters OF the COM
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 understandingly 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-
lutely necessary for our requirements.
