Walter d. O'Brien. who is just back
in Goldfeld from Wonder, where he
owns the controlling interest in the
Wonder Faustina Mining company, says
they have cut a vein OIL the Faustina

a few days ago to look after their min

800 feet. A ledge was cut at 80 feet
and at the 2oo-foot level a good quality
of ore was uncovered in drifting, fifteen
feet from the shaft. Another ledge was
cut at the 95-foot level and Mr.. Miller

DISCOVERY OF "RIO PINTO"
OR LOST SPANISH MINES

The existence of these old Spanish
mines have been known to the old set
tiers of the country for the past fifty
years, and man, prospecting parties
have organized during that time to hunt
for the old workings, but without sue
cess until the autumn of 1906 A. D.
Whittier and a party from Rhyolite, Ne
vada. camped at what is known as
Hunters Springs. While hunting for
their burros that had strayed during
the night, they found the old workings
in a canon leading down from the Rio
Pinto mountains into Saline valley.
The mines are situated on the north
side of the canon and are reached by
trail from the valley. There is every
proof hat the work lone is very old
for all of the many tunnels and shat ts
were found caved in. but the size of the
dumps prove that the mine was worked
extensively by the early owners. In fol-
lowing down the trail from the noun
tain they were surprised to find a large
ore rooster and three arastras and the
ruins OF stone buildings evidently liv-
ing houses of the miners. Built against
the rear of the ore rooster was a smaller
furnace where the amalgam from the
arastras was retorted and run into bars
of bullion.
Two samples of ore were taken for
assaying which gave the following re-
suits: Sample No. 1. sos ounces in
silver and 8 clio in copper. Sample No.
2 gave 139 ounces in silver and 4 1-1o
per cent in copper and $4.13 in gold.
Why the original Spanish owners
abandoned the mine will never he
known. but two reasons are suggested.

FINE STRIKE ON THE
FAIRvIEW RED ROCK

III. A. Reidel & Co., promoters of the
Fairview Red Rock Extension, have re-
eeived the following from their superin-
tendent at Fairview:
Il Just got an assay from the Exten-
sion that ran s72.57 and it was not a
small piece of rock at that. but a sack
full and a fair average. / think we
have a copper mine as it ran $500 in
copper and TIE balance in silver. I will
mail you the certificate in a day or two.
1t came from the large cropping down
the gulch and l am anxious to get down
with the shaft and cut it. I had to sink
on the hill as the ledge is very fiat. and
1t would be almost impossible to work
1t from the gulch. besides / would not
have any dump ROOM"
The Goldfield news. [volume] (Goldfield, Nev.) 1904-1911, 1907-05-04

the first, and probably the real cause.
was the gradual changing in character
OF the ore as depth was attained, as
shown by assays taken, /. e., the in
crease of copper in ore; which made
the simple process used by the early
miners impractical, the second possible
reason for the abandonment of the
property is the Indian trouble in the
ovens Lake country in the early SOS.
me outlet from the Ubehebe district
was via Owens Lake n Mojave to the
south, which would cut off the egress of
the bullion and supplies from the AXE
oistrict. That the mine was hastily
abandoned is suggested from the fact
mat the tools, picks, shovels, ETC., were
round at the mouth of one of the tun-
nels.
A company has been organized to
operate this property, six claims were
taken covering all the workings and
piant' and taking in the Hunters Springs
"hich VIII supply ample water for treat
ing the ore. There is also an abundant
supply of good timber for mining pur-
poses. The following are the officers of
the new company, which is called the

FLORENCE AFTER
THE POLLARD LEASE

1t Is understood that a director of
the Little Florence company made a
handsome offer for the Pollard lease,
within the past few days, to either pur-
chase the Pollard lease outright or
enough stock to give a control. so that
the three leases, the Little Florence, the
Mohawk-F1orence and the Pollard might
be brought under one management and
worked under one plan. Thirty-f1ve
cents per share was offered for $4,000
shares but the Pollard people would
not part with the bunch for less than
so cents.
1t is claimed that the rich vein of
the Little Florence runs directly through
the Pollard ground and within 40 feet
of it's shaft which was down 2S5 feet
at the time of the shutdown. Plenty
of good ledge matter has been %encount-

CAAADA'S GOOD TIMES.
The immigration During 1905 was
$4,000.


While II Is we'll to heed every
word Of caution from the leaders in
commerce and finance and to avoid
all speculative ventures that lack q
solid business foundation, II IL clearly
evident that there IN no conspicuous
weak spot in Canada's present era Of
prosperity. The Toronto Globe says:
The Dominion has in a commercial
sense plenty Of money. and our lead
Ing financial institutions are in q DO
sition TO lend freely IN the United
States. The chief productive enter
prises OF Canada arc not buoyed up
by an era OF dangerous speculation,
but are following substantial busl-
ness methods and finding safe and
continuous markets for their goods.
We are not bolstering up any indus.
tries by extensive export bonuses
that must impoverish the people as
q whole, and ultimately lead to col.
lapse through the failure Of the artI-
hcial aid. There is no extreme pro-
lection in Canada such as would ere.
ate great fortunes for a few at the
expense Of the general public and
lead to disruption and catastrophe.
Tho prosperity Of Canada has no ar.
dhcial foundation being based on a
healthy and substantial expansion OF
trade and industry. with q proportion.
ate extension Of productive settlement
to new areas.
II is true that We are borrowing
extensively for railway construction,
but every line will bring new terri
tory within the limits OF profitable
occupation, and will create prosper
Gus settlements to bear the burdens
and repay the outlay. We are not
exhausting mineral resources, for It
Is quite reasonable to assume that,
although mineral wealth is never
permanent, ours will during the
measurable future develop a far
greater productive capacity than at
present. Our timber wealth can be
made continuous by a jud!cious pol
Icy. And agriculture, the real foun-
dalton OF our prosperity, is expanding
with every new expenditure on rail-.
way construction. We are not in
the flush Of a railway mania that
could bring its punishment through
the useless duplication OF lines. The
gigantic railway enterprises that
now stimulate every line OF business
in Canada will create a new Domin-
ion, and thus render easy the heavy
burdens Of debt now freely assumed.
Canada's era OF prosperity has been
unprecedented, but there Is no sign
Of weakness and no cause for lack
Of confidence. While our growth Is
normal and healthy, we need have no
alarm at its rapidity" This article
might have gone on to relate the
great growth that is taking place In
Central Canada, where thousands OF
Americans have made their homes
during the past few years. The past
calendar year has given TO Canada by
importation an addition OF $4,000 to
its population. OF this the United
States contributed 63.7S1. The agents
OF the Canadian government, whose
advertisement appears elsewhere. say
that this number will be largely In.
creased during 1907.
