this, subscribing for as much as their
means would justify while many of the
business men expressed their doubts of
the ability to carry through the under
taking and, unintentionly became knock
ers. But the promoters persisted and
found subscribers for several thou
sand shares of the stock about here and
in Jordan Valley and Boise and then
Mr.. Steele and his wife visited the latter s
home in Wisconsin and sold more; going
from there to Mr.. Steele's boyhood home
at Scranton, Pennsylvania, where con-
siderable more was disposed of. From
there they came to Minneapolis, Mimi.
and disposed of large quantity of the
shares, insuring them that the payment
for the property would be met as they
matured. The president and wife started
out in June, 1905, and returned in April,
1907 They took subscriptions for shares,
at 20 cents each. In the meantime other
members of the board OF directors were
busy and disposed gilmore shares. When
Mr.. Steele returned home and a meeting
of the directors was held, the price of the
stock was advanced to 30 cents per share,
and was continued at that figure until the
meeting of the stockholders was held in
June 1905, when, concluding that
all the obligations of the company would
be met, the stockholders by vote, de-
cided that no further shares should be
sold for less than par and that

CITY AND DeLAMAR
WILL CELEBRATE.

Following their usual habit of putting
such things off until the last moment,
Silver City people have at last resolved
that the Fourth of July shall be properly
observed and celebrated, and the business
have very literally put up money for the
purpose of carrying it through; arranged
a fine program of exercises and sports for
the day, including in it the ball already
arranged for by the Pythian Sisters, for
the evening of the third, and have handed
the program to Nugget at too late an
hour for publication. We have, however,
read it, and, like the DeLamar program,
which provides for quite as elaborate and
attractive exercises, including parade
and floats, with Goddess of Liberty and
other attractive features, was also handed
us too late, but both win appear on posters

The Banner Mill Started.
Marks the Beginning of New Era for
Silver City.

AT two O'Clock Tuesday, day behind
the time set for starting, because of an
unforeseen difficulty with the traincars
delivering the ore, Mrs. Steele, wife of
the president of the Banner Mining and
Milling company, stepped into the trans
former house, and the whistle was blown
announcing that everything was ready for
starting the mill. Up at the mines the
mine superintendent lighted the fuses and
exploded in succession, 81 sticks of giant
powder, and every one in Silver City
knew or felt that new prosperity for the
mining district was about to begin. Ma
dame Steele then pulled the slide which
connected the high tension electric current
with the mill, and President Steele made
a brief address to the assembled throng
of stockholders and visitors standing out
side of the building, giving a short ac-
count of the purchase of the Banner min
ing property, the organization of the COM
pany and the task undertaken of selling
stock to pay for the mines and carry out
what had been so boldly undertaken.
When the company was organized by
three men, Messrs. Honstead, Steele and
Heer, and board ofdirectors chosen and
the people of the town and the miners of
the camp invited to suscribe for stock.
Many miners who knew something of the
merits and prospects of the mines did

GROVER CLEVELAND DEAD

Former President Grover Cleveland,
the only surviving ex-president of the
Uuited States, passed to the beyond, from
his home, at Princeton, New Jersey, at
$40 a. m. last Wednesday, and flags in
Silver City, as well as all over the country,
are now floating at half-mast, expressing
the sorrow of the country at the loss of
one ofits most distinguished citizens one
who will go down in future history as one
of the most distinguished executives this
government has ever had.

treated TO champagne, provided by the
company, and cigars contributed by Mr..
A. j. Swan, one of the company local
shareholders. BY the way, we forgot to
mention that the bottle of champagne
broken over the battery was presented by
Mr.. Fred Crete, the original discoverer
and one of the owners of the Banner
group of mines, which he had kept since
his wedding, sixteen years ago, and which
he and his wife had been saving to be
drank when the first of their daughters
was married but deeming the starting Of
the Banner mill a too important occasion
to be slighted, had asked that it be broken
as ibation.
The visitors then descended to the pan
and settler floor, where j. E. Masters,
manager of the Potosi, began neat ad-
dress, complimenting the Banner COM
pany for having SO successfully accom-
plished the construction of so fine mill,
so complete in all its arrangements and
SO substantially built, and expressed his
good wishes for the success of the COM
pany and the mine. We regret to say
that before he had finished, the battery
was again set in motion and the noise
of the stamps drowned its finish. Mrs.
Louis Shiek, wife of one of the Minnea-
polls stockholders, then turned the power
onto the rs h. p. motor, setting the ma.
chinery of the pans and settlers going, al
the same time proclaiming thewish ''thai

the Banner mill may never cease running
until it had placed hundred million in
the pockets of its shareholders, and that
it might remain lasting monument to
the tireless energy of the men, who, under
SO many difficulties had raised the means
to build it, and to the faithful wife who
had so Loyalty assisted the president Of
the company in all bis efforts
With all the machinery then in motion
and running quite as smoothly as could
be expected, the visitors then began to
take their leave, all feeling that they had
witnessed the completion of an enterprise
which meant much for Silver City and
the surrounding mining districts.
The day was an ideal one, the first of
such as had followed the bad preceding
weather. AS one visitor expressed it, lit
was certainly Banner Day."
We regret that the limits of our space,
prevents us from here giving detailed
description of this splendid plant, which
we will have to defer until future num-

The president in his address, paid a
glowing tribute to the assistance rendered
him by his wife, who accompanied him in
all his travels, and, as he declares, gave
him courage to continue when he became
discouraged, patted him ON the back and
braced him up to continue his efforts
until he finally accomplished what they
had set out to do. Mrs. Steele was there
upon loudly cheered by the visiting stock
holders. The visitors were then asked to
repair the mill, where the remainder of
the ceremonies were completed by the
ladies from the stockholders families.

started the vanners in motion; Miss Flor

Publishers and the public gen
orally have had much interest
for the last few years in the
regulations pertaining to second
class mail matter. 1t is under this
class that news papers and per-
iOdicals are mailed. 1t is the most
bulky sort of mail and the rate
charged, cent a pound, does not
pay for the cost of handling. This
was borne with equanimity by the
government on the ground that it
was for the dissemination of infor-
mation to the people. But a couple
years ago rules were adopted eAclud-
ing from the second class privilege
irregular publications, those devoted
to advertising purposes only and
those that had no legitimate sub
scription list. TO those were added
the Sample copy nuisance.
The result shows a reduction of the
bulk of mail to the extent of many
thousands of tons and a consequent
saving both in the cost of handling
and the cost of transportation.

Says the Canton Sentinel: A man
sion now in process of construction
on what is known as the Daniel Wor-
den estate, near Leolyn Bradford
county--is attracting considerable
interest by reason of its massiveness
and uniqueness. The estate COM
prices 225 acres. and is now owned
by n. c. Holmes of Philadelphia,
who will spend two.thirds of his
time on the place, and he will stock
it with horses, cattle and poultry.
The mansion contains 1S rooms
and halls, and is heated by hot wa
ter, there being 1000 feet of radiation,
and it will be lighted by gas from a
private plant. The sinks in pantry
and kitchen, and the bowls and ba-
sins in the back rooms are of porce-
lain, with German silver trimmings.
Water from spring with a l20 foot
fall, is piped to the house. There
are two fire plugs. The main porch
is 1Ox106 feet extending across the
front and sides of the house. Tele.

If we should see two African
tribes adjust their trade balances by
gravely sending an ivory tusk from
one camp to the other and as grave
ly returning the same package six
months later, "civilization" would
sneer at the heathen.
Exports and imports Of gold are
on par with such proceeding in
Africa. America and Europe, with
the deepest of gravity, send ship
loads of gold back and forth at near
ly stated seasons of each year. There
must be real gold it does not mat
ter that very frequently gold import
ed from Europe will lie in the
American assay office unpacked for
six months and then returned to
London or paris in the identical
package in which it had arrived
This shifting back and forth of
the metal at considerable expense
and at the risk of total loss at sea is
at present the only method of salts
flying certain international trade
needs. 1t is cumbersome, inconven-
lent, and barbaric.
Secretary Cortelyou has suggested
a most rational plan to supersede the
old way. He proposes the creation
of international gold certificates,
based on gold and good rs gold, for
such importing and exporting rur-
poses. We have gold certificates for
money and every body accepts
them and nearly every one prefers
them to the actual metal which they
represent. Such certificates cOnld be
sent back and forth between America
and Europe without trouble, at
scarcely any expense and at no peril
of loss, since their intrinsic value is
virtually nothing.
1t is to be hoped that European
bankers will assent to this proposed
innovation as readily as representa-
tive American bankers appear to be
be doing.
The fourth assistant postmaster
general, p. V. DeGraw, in his an
nual report, just made public, recon-
mends that rural carriers be uniform
ed and that the rural free delivery
service hereafter carrying packages
of eleven pounds maXium weight at
a special postage rate.
Such accommodations, he con-
tends, would not in any way COM
pete with existing services, and
would materially increase the reve-
nues Of the department. Rural car
riers are not at present allowed to
carry for hire any matter or pack
ages that are not mailable. Patrons
and merchants desire to have small
packages delivered by rural carriers,
but will not pay the present fourth
class rates.
We were little surprised few
days ago to find $50 lying in the

of one of our prominent business
farmers home, and more so to find
it had lain there several months I'M

much the worse for the exposure.
