WILL BUILD A MILL
FOR IDAHO COMPANY

John Brooks, the we'll known mill man,
has just returned from a trip to the prop
critics of the Big Giant company, about
ten miles out of Boise, Ida, in the di-
TeCtiOn of Idaho City. He has taken a
contract to erect a twenty-five ton test
ing mill for the company, and will begin
the task the Ome material has been
delivered at the property.
For once in my life l was surprised"
said Mr.. Brooks yesterday. 1.-The company
is one which has gone quietly about the
development of its property and now it
has enough ore blocked out to run a
large mill for an indefinite time. The
mine Is a gold proposition, and the ore
will average Sc per ton. The ledge is
over fifty feet wide, and a tunnel has
opened it up for LOCO feet on the strike.
and cross-cuts nave determined the width
of the lode every 100 feet. The company
had a carload of it's ore tested and knows,
in a general way, what is going to be re-
Quired in its treatment. But to make
assurance doubly sure and to avoid any
possibility of mistake when a large mill
is decided upon. it has been considered
good business TO first erect a testing
plant Of its own. with the capacity named,
and work out the details for a big thing.
The proposition is one of the incest and
cleanest cut l ever saw and, with a sane,
conservative and at the same time ener-
getie management behind ii, it is sure
to win out and make a huge fortune for
those interested"

MINING STOCK EXCHANGE.
Short Weeks Totals Disclose Good
Volume of Business.

Notwithstanding the fact that business
was suspended on Thursday, a legal hOli-
day in this state, the volume of business
done On the mining exchange last week
was quite heavy During the five days
trading a total of 366, SIS shares of stock,
with a selling value of 800, 1856. 10, changed
hands. The final calls developed no new
sensation and the trading was scattered
through quite a wide range of stocks.
There was a sale of Eagle & Blue Bell at
81, which is the first transfer of this stock
in some time Uncle Sam continued TO
advance, and there is reason to believe
that il will show fine strength next week.
What is true of the Uncle Sam is also
true of Black Jack, Star Consolidated and
Yankee. while some of the others are
likely TO prove a disappointment to the
bear element
During yesterdays single regular and
open board calls a total of 81, $50 shares
of stock, with a selling value of $36, 591. 80,
changed hands. Following is the list of

erected at the Star Pointer. The Star
Pointer shaft has been selected as the
location for hosting the ore preparatory
to taking it to the smelter at McGiII. The
ores from the Ruth and Copper Flat

being constructed around the shaft to a
height of eight feet. upon which will rest
the steel gallows frame, which will ex-

Especial to The Herald.O

Goldfield, New, July 2-John F. Braun.
of Philadelphia, who is heavily interested
in the Northumberland and Midway-Ex-
tension mines of Tonopah, will build a
fifty-ton electric c~hlorination plant In
Goldfield for the treatment of custom
ores. A tract of ground has been Sc
cured east of Columbia and
will be connected with both the Goldfield
& BuIlfrog and the Las Vegas & Tonopah
railways. The construction Of spur tracks
has commenced and the company, which
will be known as the Goldfield Chlorina-
ton Mill company, has let contracts for
the grading.
The process to be used is much the
same as the old style chlorination pro-
cess, excepting hat electricity is used in
making the chlorine solution. There is a
final method similar to cyaniding, but
lead shavings are used instead of zinc,
and the tanks are charged with a slight
current of electricity. The process was
invented and perfected by o E. Green
await of Denver. who will a charge

pleted. 1t is expected to increase the
capacity of the plant next year. The com
pany will be ready to run in four months.

DISTRICT
IS LOOMING UP
Mines Are Now Going on a Per-
manent Shipping
Basis.

ramsey, New, July 27.-This district has
come to a point in its development where
II Is justified in inviting inspection by
the mining fraternity generally. A num-
per OF Its mines are now opened up at
depthS sufficiently great to give assur-
ance OF -permanency of the exposed ore
veins, and with bodies of ore the grade
or which is amply rich to make large net
returns from the reduction works. Gov
erlng a large area that is not confined to
one particular lead, companies are extract
ing ere that carries high values in gold,
with a smaH percentage of silver and
copper. The mines opened up below water
level have proven richer than those not
so developed, and in no instance is depth
failing TO show increased values of the
ores.
Of paramount Importance is the large
production of shipping ore by the Ram
sey-Comstock Mining company, together
with a large tonnage blocked out in the
mine, and the announced program of the
officials that they will make regular
monthly shipments. They are making
every effort to forward the first car
load by the end of this month and are
e~ndeavoring to close a contract with a
teaming company with that end in view.
If necessary they will purchase their own
outfit and that within the next few
days, an option being held by them on a
big team and wagons.

suIphides in the Bonanza.

The Ramsey-Bonanza mine has a three
foot vein of blue quartz carrying sui
phides, that averages about $50 per ton.
Four feet of Oxidized ore on the hanging
wall side of the ledge will go a little bet
ter than $40. and an eighteen-inch high
grade streak, 81, 200. These people have
ordered heavy machinery in the east and
are making every preparation to go deep
and extract some shipping product.
In dozens Of places activity is manifest
and some very flattering prospects are
uncovered. OF deserved mention is the
R~amsey-Ophir company. which has eX-
posed the Ramsey-COmstock lead sixty
feet from the surface and has started
sinking a 500-foot shaft. The Ramsey
Goldfield company is on the west trend
and will bring a hoist from Dayton to sink
deep on the ledge. On the old G~aravanta
property is developed a mountain of mill
ing ore. one ledge alone being over 100 feet
wide and averaging $50 per ton gold.
while hundreds of feet of s. ore is ex-
posed. They are arranging for machinery
and a mill. These and a number of other
well developed mining properties promise
a brilliant future for Ramsey.

set his company and compelled him to
take personal supervision
1t required no "eagle-eyed' prospector
to find the Sewer vein. In fact, at one
point the prosDectOr would have needed
a ladder to scale the great wall of gold
bearing quartz. Below the groupings the
north face of the hill is covered to a
depth of many feet with large bOulders
Of ore -aggregating thousands of tons
that some day will surrender the fortune
they surely contain. On the surface the
great vein is twelve to fifteen feet wide,
and every pound of it is good milling
grade with pockets and ribbons of ore
that runs into the hundreds of dollars
per ton
Roughly. the vein has a southeast
northwest strike, and a dip of 10 to 90
degrees to the southeast Those direc-
tons are, however, only general, for the
strike and dip is suddenly changed and
are somewhat confusing. At one point
in the lower workings the vein makes
an almost right angle turn, and often
changes its dip to nearly vertical or flat
tens, as the case may be. At one pOInu
on its strike the vein separates and. con-
verging, e~nclOses an enormous horse
of '~undigeSted' country rock. But
through all of its eccentricities between
and dip the lines of demarcatiOn between
the ore and country rock are sharply
defined by walls more or less regular
and always persistent. Developments
have disclosed a back vein of almost
equal strength, and fully as good value
as the front vein. And there is hardly
a doubt that the two veins will unite
at depth.
The vein in the lowest stoL IS. nearly
300 feet down from the groupings, is fully
as wide as at the surface, and Mr..
Maison is authority for the statement
that the values are better than at the
grass roots. From the lowest stope 1
secured specimens hat are fairly
"iousey' with gold. The ore already
blocked out in the various levels is am
pie for several years of continuous
grinding without further development.
Getting Ore at Depth.
The heretofore abortive efforts of the
company to find the vein in the lowest
tunnel have been a source of vexatiOn.
However, only $50 feet of unexplored
ground interVenes between the deepest
tunnel and the stope Immediately above
where the vein shows up in full strength
and value. and which dispelS every doubt
as to it's descent to the depths. In fact.
Jerry Couglan, the mine superintendent,
has opened up some good values in the
lowest tunnel, and believes the problem
to be as good as solved.
While the unusual local assuring and
faulting of the Sewer hill with its at
tendant complex vein system has fur
nished innumerable obstacles to the own
erS, it yields incontrovertible evidence of
the permanency of the ore bodies. There
of the veins since the filling was COM
pleted. and 1t ought not, therefore, to
be a difficult matter to 0llOW the ore
shoots in their descent to the DEPTHS.
To Seymour W. TuIloch belongs I'M
stinted credit for the admirable energy
the enterprise and in successfully sur
mounting obstacles that to men with less
courage and person. 1aRso would nave
been insuperable.

Camp Assumes EnviabIe Position.

-
The forwarding Of regular shipments
from this district marks the commence
ment of the most important epoch in the
history Of the camp. 1t is the position
that every new district in the state strives
to assume and when mines are sufficient
ly developed to make possible continuous
shipments of high-grade ore the camp SO
placed Is in position to command atten-
ton from the mining world.
There is another of Ramsey's mines hat
rightfully claims shipping quality ore, a
four-foot vein of it, that runs $50 per ton
gold, although this property is developed
but a few feet below surface. The Walk
over mine, about two claim lengths west
from the RamSey-COmStOck. has uncOV-
cred a fine vein within twenty-five feet of
surface and has a nice pile of ore laid
aside for future consideration. The COM
pany owning this claim announces that
it will sink on the vein to water level.
where the sulphide ores are found, and
that the purpose will be to place this mine
in the same class with the Ramsey-Com-
stock.
The Ramsey-Consolidated Mining COM
pany has sunk below water level on the
Dago No. 2 claim with a vertical shaft
and IS prosecuting from the 300-foOt
Level on the main ledge. The best ore is
sulphide in character, and a four-foot
parallel fiSSure struck at water level, as
says $5S in gold, silver and copper. OF
these values nearly three ounces of gold
is contained in the ore A cross ~fissure.
ten feet WIDE encountered at the 1J0-fOOt
level, is high-grade and near the hanging
wall a part of it will run up to a dollar
a pound in gold, with. a small percentage
of silver. The company has a goodly pile
of this ore on the dump. They expect
some fine showings in the main ledge
and will cut it over 500 feet from the apex
of the dixie.
TheNsame ledge outcrops on Dago No. 1
and at this point the big dixie carries high
surface value. They are tunneling it to
catch the ore shoots and have already de-
velOped one three-foOt stringer, the ore of
which will run better than $50 per ton.
A shaft will soon be started on this part

MIR. BRYAN'S SURPRISES.

We pointed out yesterday that Mr..
William j. Bryan's plan to have the
Federal government guarantee the de-
posts of national banks would put
every State bank and trust company In
jeopardy. They would probably lose
all their deposits at once. They would
certainly be in great danger OF runs
every time the depositors should take
fright. In order to protect themselves,
the State banks would have to become
..nasionaiized" at the first opportunity.
Then what? Do the people relish the
thought of having all State banks put
under the control of the Federal gov
eminent? Would not that be another
long stride towards federalism? And
what would become of landowners who
should desire to get accommodation al
bank? National banks are not allowed
| 10 lend money on real estate, and IL al
I the State. banks were "nationalized,'
| landowners would be at great dis
| advantage, and land values would sui
fer accordingly.
OF course there is no danger tina
/ Mr.. Bryan's plan will be seriously con
sidered by Congress. But his propose
4 should be seriously considered by thos
who want him to be President of TIL
\ United States. Nobody knows wha
moment Mr.. Bryan will spring one o
his surprises on the people and on tn
party. lie does not know himself II
is a man of impulses. He means to d
we'll. but he is dangerous candtdat
; for any party to tie to, Mind you, "
did not say a dangerous man. but
dangerous candidate.
We hope the party will consider NJ
Bryan more seriously than he cor
I siders some Of his startling proposal
before they select him to be the
! leader in 1905.
