GOOD ADVICE FROM HUBBARD.

Ebert Hubbard is not the sort of a
personality that one can blindly fol
.ow, for Fra Albertus'' does many
things we may not all agree with. For
instance, he wears his hair long. and
that practice is not popular Then too,
ne writes overmuch, and talks over
much and there is too much Of hint
Of sermonizing in his writing and talk
Ing. But occasionally Hubbard writes
something that seems to just fit the
case. and in the December number Of
the Philistine there is such an article.
He has just returned from seven
weeks tour through twenty-four states
and he gives this the sum total of his
Impressions:
The people of America never were
so happy, healthy and prosperous as
they are today.
Never before have we had so much
to be thankful for.
Never before was the future so
bright.
Never before was the average of in
telligence so high.
II we suffer, it is from overeating,
and not from lack Of food
We are the nearest free of any peo-
pie the sun ever shown upon.
The only thing to which we are in
bondage, in degree, is fear.
Hubbard found the country In a

healthy state of mind. He found that
honesty was not the lost virtue the So
called reformers have told of. And re-
turning from his trip he voiced the
conclusion that the literature of ex-
posture and defamation has been over
done; that the yellow journals have
been needlessly yellow and have shot
too low. The world, he says, is in a
state of economic, social and theolog-
ical change. Soldiers and soldiers of
political financial and liter
airy - would do we'll to curb their ego
and not stampede evolution into revo-
luton.
Then he turns his attention to the
late financiali upheaval and uses 1t as
vice:
The workers are at work Factory,
forest, farm and mine are calling for
laborers. The cost of living has in
creased. but wages have more than
kept pace = the savings banks attest
it. There is no such thing in America
as the problem of the unemployed
The stocking may be better than
stocks, but the banks are better than
either My advice is, put all your
spare cash in the bank and let it re-
main there, paying your bills by
check. The bankers of this country are
men to believe in and bank on. The
rogue banker stays in business only
about as long as that famous snow
ball lasts in Biloxi Be frank with
your banker and he will be frank and
generous with you.
The people who imagine the ginger
jar, stocking, clock or trousers peck.
cts are safer receptacles for money
than the bank are shining marks for
mining sharks, also for moth, rust
thieves and fire. A bankers success
depends absolutely upon one, thing
and that is protecting his depositors,
and American bankers, of all men
now know it. 1t is good working pol
icy to have faith in your banker in
times of doubt consult him. He may
give you unrleasant advice, but the
chances are. he's right.
And Hubbard concludes in his cpl
gramatic style:
Things are on the uplift.
Thought is in the saddle.
The country is safe.
The people are at work and getting
paid for their work, and through thel1
work are learning to do better work
We are facing the east.

Local Men
Get a Snap
at Highland

M. D. Quackenbush and Ralph
Dewitt purchased three very
promising mining claims during
the week. These claims are
known as the Tourist Nos. l. 2
and 3 and are situate right in
the heart of the Great Highland
Mining District, adjoining the
Highland Mary and running to-
ward the famous Mendha.
All eyes are at present turned
toward this district whose merits
warrant such attention. Numer-
GUS locations are being made,
and results are assuring the To-
Gator and investor, that they
shall realize goodly sums from
the present prospects, which will
in future number among our
greatest mines.

Freiburg
District
a Producer

Reports received from Frei-
burg state that development is
being carried on in that district,
upon a large scale and with very
satisfactory results. Joseph
Bryant of Phoebe, together with
Dave Lewis, Arthur Cunning
ham and Pete Frenzi own a
group of claims consisting afzthe
jackson, Jackson No. 2, Lucky
+, Black Horse and White Cloud.
Upon the Jackson a very rich
strike has been made. A ledge
was encountered of about three
feet in width with an average
value of $91.7 per ton and the
value is increasing as the ledge
is developed.
The Freiburg District was at
one time a large producer of
very rich mineral. But its sit
uation and the distance from
railroad transportation made it
impossible to work with a profit
anything but the richest of ore.
1t is again receiving the atten-
tion of capital with the result
that in the very near future a
large tonnage is expected to be
shipped and with good results.
At present a number of cor
porations have property in this
district and are determining the
extent of the ore bodies as fast
as development can do so.

THAT
POTOSI
BULLION

In an extensive article in the
Las Vegas Age of recent date,
there was reported that the Pc.
tosl mines near Las Vegas had
received from the smelters net
returns to the value of $500, OOC
during the year 1906. The Of
ficlal records Of the assessor
show that not one cent of bullion
tax has been paid on any
amount. In justice to those
paying taxes on the net proceeds
OF their properties in Lincoln
county, in the upholding of the
law requiring such tax to be COL
lected and for the revenue that
is due the tax payers of this
county. the Record asks that an
explanation Of this particular
company be had. Did the state
bullion tax collector ever visit
the properties during the year
1906? If so, what was the re-
port on the same? Assessor
Roeder has made repeated eff
forts to get this statement from
the company and it seems that
the only satisfaction to be OBJ
tained was repeated delays, until
a few days ago, when a wire
was received stating that the
report was in preparation. The
amount of tax should be a neat
sum. This property is owned
by the Potosi Zinc-Lead Mining
company.

Shooting
Affray

Word was brought in from Sill
yer Park, Thursday, to the effect
that a shooting affray had taken
place at that point.
1t seems that two ranchers,
Hayes and Reardan, residing at
Snake Valley, White Pine County,
were riding in and around Silver
Park and after getting filled up
on too much fire water" be-
came very demonstrative, and
formed a desire to i'm press upon
the prospectors residing there,
the fact that they were bad men.
With that end in view, each
armed with a 22-calibre rifle, be-
gan shooting at an old man by
The nsnae gs otp $p Csrpeate' zSitl,-;qc With ac ,
Iefsker provocation than as they
expressed it lust to see him
run" About twenty shots were
fired with the result that Carpen-
ter was seriously wounded in the
leg.
We understand that warrants
are to be sworn out for the per-
petrators and that they will be
prosecuted to the full extent of
the law.

The State
and County
Are Losers

From the state controllers re-
port we find the net yield for the
twelve months ending Septem-
Der 30, 1907, on which bullion
tax was collected in Esmeralda
county was $544, 047. 96. AS the
report of the Mohawk Consoli-
dation company show a royalty
paid by the leases of over ST.
500, 900, what's the reason no
bullion tax was collected on this
