STOCKHOLDERS ARE INDIGNANT

There is scarcely a mail that comes
to the office of The Goldfield News that
does not carry a complaint arising from
the wildcat transactions of Lang and
Bleakmore, while representing the firm
of M~ims-Sutro company, in the winter
of 1904-5, and asking If something can
not be done to compel restitution to
their victims. or at least get action
among the stockholders to protect the
property. Because the principals nave
left the district for remote parts and
others, of prominence, whose names
were used as officers of the f1otations in
question deny all knowledge of the af-
fairs of the company, many even going
so far as to declare that their names
were used without their knowledge or
authority, it has been impossible for
The News to get a line on the status of
the various companies and their affairs,
and give any satisfactory replies to in
q~uiries.
One or two letters were received this
week, which shows the temper of the
stockholders, and they are here repro
duced for the benefit of all who may
have stock in the companies named.

Nothing but good reports come from
DYKE and as to the h of the sur
face showings there is no question.
Prospectors are going into the camp all
the time, not only from the south but
from the north as well.
A. j. McColley and r. ". McCurdy,
two Idaho men, came in from Dyke
Wednesday and they c~orroborate what
has been said of the richness and prom
Use of the district. They have located a
number of claims and have performed
the location work. 1t is their
to return shortly and begin active work
on their property.
AS to their opinion of the camp, Mr..
McCurdy said: "Of course there has
not been very much work done. but the
surface showing is something great and
it looks as if you can get paintings any
where. Most any of the claim owners
can show you free gold specimens. On
the Ellis and Jackson claims very rich
ore is being taken out and the Bishop
strike is as good as reported. Al Gay
and w. M. Rummery are opening up
good prospects and from the Buckaroo,
owned by c. Skinner and others, ship
ping ore is being extracted. 1t is re-
ported that This property has been sold
to Goldfeld parties. The Ruddell strike
is a big one and it looks as If gold can
be found anywhere on this big lead.
Claims are staked out up and down
the range for miles and strikes are re-
ported every day. There is plenty of
open ground and it has been proven that

thirty miles north and south of Dyke
Wednesday F. N. F1etches, a we'll
Known mining man of Tonopah. return
ed from his second trip to Dyke and
k creek. Speaking of the out
look of the camps, Mr.. Fletcher said:
Il have great faith in Jackson Creek as
one of the coming big copper camps OF
the state, and know of nom where there
is a better nance of opening up big
mines. Work, of course, is necessary
to do this, but a good beginning has
been made and the properties which
have been acquired by Captain Hassell,
T. L. Oddie and E. s.. Chafey will be
developed within the next few months
to an extent which / believe will bring
Jackson Creek to the front as one of
the big copper camps of the state"
Mr.. Fletcher said that Dyke is deserv-
ing of all the good reports which have
been published and that the surface
showing in the district is truly wonder
full. Most of the claim owners have
been unable to do much more than their
location work, but even this limited de-
velopment has resulted in a number of
important strikes. Ellis and Jackson,
Guy Bishop, C. Skinner and others are
taking out shipping ore and the strike
recently made on E. ]. Ruddells claims
is of the bonanza order.
Taking all these things into consid-
eration,'' said Mr.. Fletcher, "the future
of Dyke is certainly very bright

An Indication of extraordinary pros
perity in the mineral industry of the
United States is the payment of divi-
dends by tw~enty-three companies re-
porting to the Mining World of s3,ss7,-
500 in August. making a total of $751;
412,644 for the eight months, and s121,-
29,739 since Incorporation on an is
sued capital of $224.S41,40 Over half
of these enormous dividends are credit
ed to the copper companies. four having
paid s3.O61. 500 in August. s10,1S4,244
since nuar and s69. 24S,12s since their
organization, on a capital of $160.SS6.-

~Amalgamated Copper company, which
has declared s2.679.03s in August. ST.
654.395. or SIS per cent for the eight
months, making a total of $40.S55,472
since incorporation on $153,OSI 300 cap
ital stock. Senator Clark's United
Verde mine in Arizona is understood to
be paying s225,00O monthly, making
s1,s0O,O0 or so per cent on $3,OO0,O0O
for eight months and bringing the total
dividends since Incorporation up to $780,
695,322. Continued high prices of cop
per suggest larger dividends. In fact
several of the more important mines
have already announced increased profit.
In the gold, silver and lead group the
situation is most gratifying by reason
of the greater demand and improved
prices for the commercial metals. Six
teen of these properties declared divi-
dends of 1921, 800 in August and $4,Sll,-
200 for the eight months, making a
grand total of 42.994.611 since incor-
