stock Is not due to the fact that the
company has stopped work and let out
its ground to leasers. The stock has

=. q. W., Johnstown. Pa. We cannot
undertake to make mention of every
prospect or mine in Nevada in every is
sue of The News. MOI can We be ex-
pected to keep prominently before the
public properties that are not working
and about which there is no news. This
is a newspaper and not a promotion
organ. You apparently think the prop
critics of which you ask are working
mines and appear indignant because We
suppress all mention of them. The
fact Is they are not mines at all; only
prospects and no work has been done on
them for months. and there is no news.
We do not suppress news. In fact we
eagerly publish all news that is proper
to publish. and we print it without fear.
favor or prejudice. This paper is fair
and independent and no one can buy a
line of reading space in our columns.
This paper is prosperous enough so that
it does not have to sell it's influence. 1t
can afford to tell the truth as it appears
to us. at all times and about all mines
and stocks. and this is the line hat has
been and will be pursued.
J. y. Ragerstown, Nd. The Nevada
Queen property, out in the southeastern
part of the district, is being developed
energetically and in~telligently, under
the supervision of Donald Ferguson.
engineer and general manager. The
formation is identical with that of the
big producing mines of the district and
Mr.. Ferguson is satisfied that the
values will be found later. The big
Congo tunnel is now in nearly 720 feet
and is being pushed forward at the rate
of eight feet a day, a truly remarkable
performance for two shifts. Two veins
have been cut and Mr.. Ferguson expects
to cut many more before the tunnel
reaches the big dyke that will probably
be entered about 1900 feet from the
mouth of the tunnel. This dyke will be
cut at great depth and the various veins
that nave been cut will then be thor
oughly explored by means of shafts and
upraises.
W. D. H. WATERFOWL, n. =. The COM
pany of which you ask (Cieneguita Cop
peri owns property in old Mexico, at
Sahuaripa district. Sonora. We have no
data upon the proposition other than
that contained in the elaborate pros
pectus issued by w. r. Mcdowell, New
York. and that. of course. is ex parte
testimony. We notice among the direc-
tors and as mine manager. the name of
C. w. Howbert. formerly manager for
the Moon-Anchor and other good prop
critics at Cripple Creek. We can say
from our personal acquaintance and
knowledge of Mr.. Howbert, that he
would not be connected with anything
but a good proposition. Mr.. Howbert
has the highest reputation in Colorado
both as a man and mine manager. w.
r.. Mcdowell & Co. are at 35 Wall street,
New York.
Il. =. r, Montrose, Colo. The Fair
view Eagle is regarded as enc of the
most promising properties in the Fair
view district, second only to the nevada

J. =. W, Elmira. The full name of
the company to which we referred is
the Bullfrog Consolidated Mines Syn
dictate. The basis of exchange for the
new Red Star company is pool stock in
the new company at 10 cents a share for
stock in the old company at the pur-
chase price. If you paid Is cents for
the old stock you would get one and one
half shares of the new stock.
q. ". D, Tufts College, No. You will
have seen in last weeks issue of The
News extended reference to the Bernier
iotations. M~ohawk-Gold Bar, Mohawk
Florence. Mohawk Daisy. all under the
management of Robinson & Vickers.
You will infer from that article why
nothing had been said of the properties
for a time preceding.
