MORE ABOUT COLDFIELD
The Most Amazing Camp on Earth
 COmstOck's Letter.

Goldfeld, with the biggest and rich.
 est gold mine in the world, has already
 surpassed what has been commonly
 known as "The Greatest Gold CamI on Earth" Doubt about the perman- ency of Goldfield has been removed by
 penetration of sulphide, or deep, 43t feet, much richer than the oxidized ol | surface ore from which the first for tunes in the camp were and are being l extracted. Sulphide is the invariable accompaniment of permanency, ex- tending to unknown depths. The Comstock Mines at Virginia City near by, are opened to depth of more than 5000 feet, and have produced $6OO,- OOO,OO0, with millions more opened in | the lower levels and the different con- panies owning the great mines consol- idating to open in joint operation the | mines to greater depth. The official government report on Goldfeld, writ | ten by J. E. Spurr, of the United Stat es Geological Survey, has this to say on the subject:
 "As the water level at Goldfield is unusually high for this desert country, (water having been encountered in several shafts at from 150 to POO feet, 1t is plain that this oxidized ore is only temporary supply"
 In the Combination and the Flor ence sulphide ores of q very high grade have been found below the oxidized. This utterance sets the seal of the United States government upon the permanency and continued richness of the Goldfield ore bodies.
 The leasing system in the Nevada district has been the making of Gold field and many other mining camps. Leasing is regarded by many authori- ties to be the most important develop ment of modern mining. It has time and again made real mines out of prospects but it's greatest achievement was to make the Mohawk a mine when It's owners had neither the cour- age or the money to do it.
 FAMOUS LEASES.
 One of the most famous leases, the Sweeney, Wingfield and Hennessy, on the Florence property, is said to have netted three of the partners over one half million dollars. There were eight partners in all, one of whom was no other than Senator Nixon. These figures are exclusive of the thousands of tons of milling ore which still re- main upon the dumps.
 Another famous lease was the Me- Kane, on the Jumbo, waich netted over $600,000 and kept up continuous start On this wonderful property were nine big paying leases, the Zinn lease netted $400O00: the Curtis and Ridge $250,000, the yernilyea S200,o00 and the George Richards $100.000.
