EDITOR VISITS
|RAWHIDE MINES

James F. o'Brien, the founder Of
the Goldfeld News, was here re-
Gently, having come from his old
stamping ground, Goldfeld, on his
way to his present home in Reno.
Mr.. O'Brien was recently at Raw
hide and he says that the place ap-
peals to his as strongly as did Gold
field in the early days of that famous
camp.
Il did not stay long in R~awhide,"
said Mr.. O'Brien, but l saw enough
of it to appreciate the sort of a
camp it is, and that it is going to
be. / have become interested in the
Big Four lease, and the ground looks
very good to me. We have three
blocks of ground, two on the Bald
Hornet claim and one on the Eagle
Bird.
There are without a doubt some
of the best showings in Rawhide that.
have ever been found anywhere, and
there is no reason why it should not
make a great camp; in fact, there is
everything in favor of its doing so
The streets are crowded and the
right kind of people are getting in
there, the people with money, who
make mines and a camp
Good reports come from the Ne
vada King Mining Company's prop
erty. which is located in the Royal
Tiger country. The property side
lines the Royal and endlines the
Royal Coachman. Leasers are al
work on the ground, and are getting
fine ore. 1t would be strange IL there
were not some good Developments in
that part of the country, for il is in
the heart of the mineral belt. and
only a few days ago they struck on
the Stinson lease of the Royal Tiger
group, rock that went five dollars a
pound.
The Bushwhacker, which has been
incorporated into the Bushwhaeker-
Mining Company, and which is also
In that good country, only a few days
since encountered three feet OF ore
which averaged better than $500 a
ton. These are only a few Of the
good things in Rawhide.
Tom Kearns, of the famous Kearns
leases, has returned to Rawhide from
San Francisco, where he compIetedr
arrangements for the formation OF a
water company for the new camp. II

outside the camp, and pipe the OUT.

Has Particularly
Novel Formation

IF the hills OF the Goldheld min
ing district were cut OF for a depth
OF $50 feet, leaving the high grade
which has made that camp famous,
exposed on the surface, you would
have a condition similar in a general
way to that obtaining at Rawhide, ;
said Charles Gehrmann. president of
the Bank of Rawhide, yesterday in
the course of what is perhaps the
clearest statement yet of the geologI-
cal conditions accounting for the
wonderful showing Of gold in the
new bonanza camp.
Mr.. Gehrmann is a recognized au-
thority on geological and mineralogi-
cal matters and has at various times
been called to various mines for ex-
pert opinion as to conditions. Dur
ing the early history of the Goldieid
Consolidated merger he was called
upon TO give an opinion as to the
ultimate value Of the properties and
the probable trend and continuity OF
the lodges. In Goldfeld as a result
OF the v%erification of his judgment,
his opinion carries greater weight
than that Of John Hays Hammond,
the G~nggenheims' expert.

OPINIONS ON
CAMP OF RAWHIDE

There is only one opinion Of Rawhidc entertained by min
ing men who have been in the district, and that is that it is the
greatest camp for surface showings that the world has ever
seen. The following interviews were had by w. w. Booth. and
they speak for themselves. They r with men who have been
IN nearly all the mining camps of note of recent years, who
nave seen mines made from the ground to the depths, and they
are well capable of Judging of the possibilities of a district IS
anybody in the world Here is what they have to say:

'what was the picture that broke up

This question is being asked to-day
by members of the Calvary NJ. f.

did not so to the moving picture exhibit

last night. under the auspices Of the

There is much discussion among
those who were there. and no little dis
satisfaction. for ! 500 were on hand. the
adults paying twenty-five cents and the
children ten cents The church is said
TO have the largest congregation OF any
in the city.
The Rev. Charles l.. Goodefl, pastor

he was as interested as the others. But
after few pictures had been shown,

wasn't Rome, or the burning thereof
that caused the pastor TO suddenly arise
That is enough of this. You must

the remark. So the fire in Rome was
quickly quenched.
Then came a vivid reproduction Of
the hold-up of young school ma'am
by footpads. She struggled. so did the
robbers. Things happened to her dra-
peries. and the pastor was on his feet
again. 1t was not proper picture for
the young people to see, SO one OF the
members said. But still the show went

In my experience | have never
seen the parallel of two conditions

TIC TO the Pacific; first, every Demo-

or metropolis, belives that Bryan is
to win; second, while in all formal

have been Obliged to defend them
selves against the overbearing at

may travel from Boston to San Fran

and no Republican will open his
mouth in promiscuous company.

momentous indications of the sweep
which is to come and which will end
in an overwhelming Democratic sue
cess.
