DEFENDS TREATMENT.
+ f + + + + 1! 1. + r + + + + I

Editor of the Evening Statesman:
In your issue of May II, you pub
lished a New York dispatch containing
est terms was melted out this after
noon by the coroner's jury to Chas. 5.
Byrnes, who lost 10 children and his
wife since he Joined the Christian
Science church."
This statement is not correct. Mr..
Byrnes has lost two children since be-
coming a Christian Scientist; one
some years ago, and one recently. He
lost six children under medical treat
ment, and it was the recovery of a
part of his family under Christian
Science treatment after medicine had
failed, that first enlisted his interest
in this science.
The coroner's jury in question was
made up mostly Of medical doctors,
and evidently not of the broadminded
class, and they made good use of
their opportunity to censure Christian
Scientists. To be consistent, they
should have censured the parents of
the $500 persons who die every year
from the same disease which destroyed
the Byrne child. and under medical
treatment, for the records of New
York city show that one person dies
of this disease every hour in the year.
The Byrne child made a good fight
against this disease and did far better
than many who die under medical
treatment. Many cases of pneumonia
have been healed under Christian
Science treatment, Notwithstanding
this failure, and surely, in view of the
long mortality list which is credited
to the NJ. DIS, who constituted the
cOrOner's jury, there was no just
ground upon which to censure Mr..
Byrne.
Yours sincerely,
ALFRED FARLCW,
Boston, Mass, June -, 1907.

What Irrigation Does.
Madras Pioneer.

IN the Redmond country raw land
that can be irrigated, is valued at $40
per acre, while non-irrigable land is
valued at $3.50, or irrigable land is
worth Is times as much. Applying
these figures to the lands of this sec
ton. where there is no irrigation. the
average land here, with irrigation,
would be worth upwards of 500 per
acre-and it would be worth it, too.
And it is within the bounds of posi-
bilities that in a few years parties
desiring 70 buy in this district may
have to look the figure of 500 per
acre in the face, irrigation or no ir-
rigatiOn

MANY RIGS in THE VIRGIN OIL FIELDS

William. Pollard, who is associated
with ]. C. Mccormack in the Virgin
River oil field. in southwestern. Utah.
arrived in Goldfeld Thursday from Los
Angeles, where he went to purchase an
oil rig and the necessary machinery for
developing oil wells on their ground. Mr..
Pollard left Virgin on h 9th Of last
month and he "a there was great ac-
tivity throughout the district at that
time, and from reports he has received
from that section since he left. there are
at least double the number of rigs In
operation there now. with many more
on the way and ordered. The oil fields
lie about IS miles from the railroad and
the operators ia experienced great
difficulty in securing sufficient lumber
with which to build derricks and the
necessary buildings.
Mr.. Pollard says the Virgin River Oil
and Development company, which put
up the first rig. is now pumping 25 bar
reIs OF oil a day. This oil is supplied
to the other rigs and pending an in
crease in consumption in the district or
needed facilities for transporting the oil
to the outside, the company will not at
tempt to produce a greater quantity.
OH was struck by this company at a
depth OF 800 feet. 1t is sinking another
well. which is now down 4s7 feet.
h Mammoth Virgin Oil company.
which is the name OF the Mccormack
Pollard organisation. has a big tract Of
nd-mo than six sections. in the
heart OF the district and will begin ac-
tive development work as soon as the
rig arrives on the ground.
The Goldfield news. [volume] (Goldfield, Nev.) 1904-1911, 1907-11-16

Extract from latest market letter of
the Goldfeld Brokerage Exchange COM
pany. W. d. O'Brien. manager:
Goldfeld and Nevada in general are
already recovering. Watered values
have trickled out and disappeared. 1t
was the best thing that could have hap
pened to this country of adventurous
spirits and daring spectators to have
home of their adoption was unlimited.
Their belief in the future enormous pro-
duction of the district was founded
upon a fabulous production in the pres
ent time. which they could see with
their own eyes. AS a result, they be-
came imbued with the idea that no mat
ter where a shaft might be sunk. gold
would be found. As is we'll known, gold
runs in lodges. which are limited in ex-
tent and scope. There We're bound to
be many disappointed leasers. but. new
ertheless. the state Of Nevada and its
mining districts of Fairview, Wonder,
Round Mountain. Manhattan, Rawhide,
Bullfrog and Goldfeld still hold i'm
mense undiscovered treasures of gold.
The present depression has enhanced
the purchasing power of that gold. It
has been proven that the slightest fnan-
cial disturbance. which causes depos-
itors In the banking institutions to feel
that they are unsafe, Immediately forces
a withdrawal and a boarding of money,
which is at once felt in a painful scar
city of the direct medium of trade. That
again appreciates the value of gold, So
1t seems reasonable to presume, in the
face of continuous new strikes and in
creased production of the yellow metal.
that Goldield, Wonder and Fairview.
will forge rapidly to the front as a
field for careful investment.
The six hundred million dollars pro-
duced by the old Comstock mines has
long headed the list Of returns from
mining, yet Goldfeld has produced in
1907 as much as did that famous prop
erty of Virginia City in the first six
years of it's existence. Each weeks pro-
duction. estimated conservatively, now
averages about half a million dollars.
1t will he at least twenty years before a
%dimunition may be expected. and. it is
believed. that with increased facilities.
there will come a corresponding doub-
ling in production, which will give a
total result of over five hundred and
twenty millions of dollars
Last month. checks were sent out
from Goldfeld totaling 1861 eco. which
represented the dividends declared ~
Goldfeld mining companies and leasers.
Goldfeld today is undoubtedly adding
much more to the wealth Of the United
States and the world than any other
town of it's size in the world. 1t is pay
ing the highest wages paid anywhere in
the United States. Its mining secur-
tiles. where they are based upon prop
critics either producing or located within
the producing belt. will recover In value
as rapidly as they have been depressed.
Many investors are today taking ad-
vantage Of the prevailing low prices to
pick up bargains in stocks which VIII
show them. within 80 days. at least. 100
per cent in profit.
