1.-THE statement Is made that the
North Carolina Valley Railway, now in
operation between Thomasvile and
Denton. N. c., a distance of twenty
one miles, is to be extended both north
and south so as to form a connecting
link between Winston-Salem and
Wadesboro. II Is stated that the work
is under way at three points along the
line from Thomasville to High Point,
from High Point to Winston-Salem.
and from Denton towards Rocking-
ham and Wadesboro, and that contract
for the entire work will be let within
few days. A l>ae to be built between
Winston-Salem and Greensboro, Is to
be an electric trolley line. This por-
ton of the road will be forty-eight
miles in length. The entire line will
be Ill miles long.

money for their clients In many cases,
but there is always an end to this method
OF becoming suddenly rich. Values wien
pressed beyond reasonable limits will be-
gin to shrink. Obligations placed on in
flated property will go by default. Public
confidence becomes shaken and a business
panic or shrinkage Is the result. Those
who have been led too far beyond the
line of the legitimate will suffer in con-
sequence. They will find that 1t will not
pay them to send good money after bad
in attempting to make a second and third
payment on property purchased for far
more than actual value. and they will
decide to lose what they have invested
rather than further rob themselves OF
what they possess.
Injury to City.
In the meantime while the speculative
fever runs rampant, and the erstwhile
conservative agents do violence to their
better Judgment in recommending an out
lay of money to their client beyond the
scope Justified by facts and actual values
a city has received tho reputation Of be-
Ing on boom, and outside investors
flock to the scene to invest, not wisely,
but too much of their and other peoples
money. The result Of such proceedings is
always the same. 1t Injuries such city in
the long run, and should be discouraged
by all who have the permanent welfare
OF city at heart.

Ramsey, New, July 4.-Of unusual i'm
p~ortance to this district, as well as the
shareholders, is a strike of rich sur
face ore on the Ramsey-Consolidated
company's ground. The holdings consist
of two claims adjoining with an i'm
mense dyke appearing on either. They
are known as Dago No. l and No. 2. On

ries high surface values in free gold.
Paintings may be obtained almost n
place across the dyke and some sensa-
tional results are obtained on the hang
ing wall side. Arrangements will soon
be complete for lowering a shaft at this
point. This ground is within the limits
of the townsite and is one mile south of
the Ramsey-Comstock mine. on a diff
ferent mineral belt. On Dago No. 2 they
will soon crosscut the ledge from the
30O-foot level. Some rich ore shoots will
be cut that are known to exist.
At Ramsey-Comstock mine drifting
on the ore shoot on the third level is in
progress. Ore is being sacked for ship
ment as they go and already between
800 and 400 sacks of high grade are
piled up. The full width of the six-foot
drift is being sacked. but a 3-foot streak
lying against the hanging wall pro-
duces the richer ores. 1t is ~phenomen-
ally rich in free gold and specimens

company has ordered improved machin-

blocked out hat runs $40 per ton and a
two-foot vein next to the hanging wall
that assays 81, 700. AS soon as this
ledge is under proper development, ex-
tension work will be lone on other
lodges that show high surface values.
With the addition of machinery the
company intends getting out ship
ments as rapidly as possible. The mine
is in excellent condition.
A shaft is to be sunk by the Ramsey
Ophir Mining company whose ground
adjoins the Ramsey-Comstock on the
east. The bonanza ledge can be seen
trending through the group for a great
distance. The shaft will be sunk as
close to the end lines as possible and
lowered to a depth correspondingly to
that of the company below. They have
uncovered the lead with surface trench
ing and will probably sink on the hang
ing wall side. High surface values are
found and there seems every reason for
expecting some early and substantial
results.
On the mother lode, the old G~aravanta
mine. an u-nincorporated property, is
still under development with a tunnel.
They are prosecuting the mountainous
dyke and have encountered some ore
shoots that carry much above the gen.
eral average. The upper ledge developed
with incline shafts. Is to be worked
shortly or as soon as machinery can be
Installed. This ore body is very uni

Is over 100 feet wide. 1t is only six
miles from the mine to the railroad.

is sure to be augmented because Of the
