many reasons all equally plausible
and erroneous. As you are aware it
is hard. long. and uphill task try
ing to revivify an old camp. and re-
instate it in favor. Capital is shy,
and baulky. and unbelieving. Far
away birds have fine looking feath-
ers; people will go out of their way
to view a mirage, while more real
and interesting things near at hand,
and easy of access and investigation,
are carelessly and inadvertently over
looked.
I'm the early days, as l have re-
marked, the pioneer miners sought
only for the rich free milling gold
and silver ores Indeed 1t was only
the very rich ore that could be profit
abb yhandled in those days. The cost
of mining and hauling and treatment
was very excessive; and owing to the
crude and wasteful methods of mill
ing then in vogue, it was only the
bonanza free milling ores that would
bear these charges and leave suf-
ficient surplus of profit to justify
mining at all. When they got to a
depth in their workings where the
free milling ores ceased and the sui
phide ores commenced they of course
had to abandon the mines, as they
had no facilities for properly and
economically treating the base ores.
At any rate that is my way of ex-
planning it, and humbly and honest
ly believe that am not great ways
from the mark

BIG DISCOVERY.
Pittsburg-Searchlight Uncovers Vast
Body of Milling Ore.


SEARCHLIGHT, Oct. 5.-That
gold is where you find it was demon
strated this week, when the manage
ment of the Pittsburg-Searchlight
mine, owned by local capital, made
the discovery that what was supposed
to be porphyry, of no value, through
which they were sinking a 2O0-foot
shaft, has proved to be an immense
deposit of good milling ore.
The Pittsburg shaft was sunk away
from the main ledge and is a vertical,
1t being planned to drift for the ledge
at 200 feet. This ledge where it out
crops shows shipping values from the
grass roots and is twenty feet in
width. A number of stringers were
encountered between the surface and
the 175-foot level. where the work
ings now reach, and fabulous values
were encountered.
1t was only yesterday that General
Manager Black out of curiosity took
a horning from the waste matter
coming cut of the shaft, and the long
string of colors was revelation.
Other samplings were taken from
bottom to top of the shaft and the
same good results obtained.
A number of experts have viewed
the find and agree that the territory
around the Pittsburg, two miles east
of town, and in a district heretofore
considered of little value, is almost
identical with that of Goldfield, and
believe that the same rich chimneys
exist below. 1t is also agreed that
the values shot through the supposed
porphyry come from the main ledge,
which has proved exceedingly rich
wherever opened.
Many prospectors who had only
lukewarm faith in their holdings
about the Pittsburg have begun to
pan the surface, and this has demon.
strated that the immense ore body
covers hundreds of acres OF territory
and is of good milling grade.
The first intimation that values ex-
listed in the character of rock found
to the east was given by a Chinaman,
Sam Yet, who recently sold a group
of claims to an English syndicate.
The rock he exhibited, and for which
he claimed values, was passed
around with, knowing wink by the
prospectors and others, who believed
the Chink had been the victim of a
hoax, but now every mining man and
prospector in the district is sampling
the conglomerate porphyry and big
results are expected.
With ore in sight, the Pittsburg is
doubtless the biggest milling PROPOSE
ton in southern Nevada, while its
high grade will bring in sufficient
capital to develop the milling grades.
A year ago this property was given
away to its present owners for doing
the assessment work on this and an
other group nearby.

this announcement the general pub
lie might not have been aware of the
existence of any such plan.
That there is some opposition to
the present administration is not to
be questioned. 1t has been cropping
out at various places and in various
ways, and the Governor himself has
taken note of it in his public speech
es, wherein he defends not only his
own course but that of the Thirtietl
legislature, which has been so much
criticised.
There is a custom in Texas that a
Governor shall have two terms unless
there should be serious objection to
his administration during a first
term. If it should develop next year
that Governor Campbells administra-
ton has not been satisfactory to a
large element of the party which hon
ored him with the election, aspirants
for the succession will not be lacking,
nor is it probable that such aspirants
would be without a strong following.
Then there might be a forceful move
ment which would at least make the
contest for the governorship interest |
ing.
If, on the other hand, there should |
be no greater dissatisfaction with the
course of the state government than
Is now apparent, and no disturbing
issues should arise to divide the dem
ocratic party into rival camps, Gov

reelection will likely be uncontested.

for its intrinsic value, but for the
great worth in which you were held
by the employees of the Gulf Division.
The token was a very valuable
Knights Templar ring.
Mr.. Anderson accepted the gift with
words of thanks, and briefly mention
ed his long service with the road in
different capacities, and his very high
appreciation of his co-laborers and
employees generally. He said the
paths had not always been strewn
with roses, but that along the way he
had gathered bouquets that were
stored in his memory, and that would
always be a source of pleasure for
him; that he was deeply moved and
much gratified at this showing of
friendship and appreciation; that he
had always tried to do his duty"

a bit of pleasantly:

ARE UP AGAINST i
GOOD AND HARD

The electric light company seems
to be up against it good and hard in
the matter of keeping it's wires up
and in good shape along those streets
where the wires thread in and out of
the sycamore trees. Every rain
storm puts them to the bad. The
greater part of the city was out of
lights because of interrupted wire
service last night, and the power line
for the greater part of the city was
out of commission during the night,
and for a few hours this morning.
1t is impossible to avoid these
trees. it seems, and all schemes to
prevent contact and short circuits
thus far have failed
This morning several lines were
down on South Sycamore street, and
wire troubles were reported from
other parts of the city
The Herald is informed drastic
measures will be taken to prevent
this trouble in the future, and to pre-
vent it the wires are to be recon
structed in many places, heavy insu-
lating will be resorted to, and a con.
siderable outlay of cash will be ex-
pended in this way The heavy volt
