HOW THE TARIFF HELPED rlii
PAPER TRUST.

Washington Herald: search
light was thrown on the relations
between trusts and the tariff by
Representative Gilbert NJ. Hitch
cock, the militant publisher OF tnt
Omaha World Herald, in a brief
speech on the paper combination
delivered in the House on Wednes-
day Mr. Hitchcock proved by doe
umentary evidence that the con-
mittee on ways and means was
warned in 1896 that an increase in
the paper duty would result in the
form alton OF a trust. Yet the COM
mittee increased the duty by the
familiar trick Of changing it from an
ad valore TO q specific duty, thus
concealing the nature of the trans
action. Within six months after the
passage of the Dingley bill, the very
men who nd appeared before the
committee in advocacy of an in
crease in duty formed the Interna
tional Paper Company, with CAPT
talization Of $51,OOO,OO0, two
thirds of which was water. Under
the shelter of the tariff, the price
OF print paper was increased from
1915 hundred pounds 10 50 ana
50 SO a hundred.
Mr.. Hitchcock's quotations ron
the report Of the hearing before the
ways and means com ittee show
conclusively that the committee had
ample warning of the consequences
OF an increase in the paper duty
John Norris, then publisher of the
New York World. advised the COM
mittee formally that the paper man.
ufacturers were about to form a
combination for the purpose of rails
ing the price of their product In o.
der to derive an additional prof
of five or six millions out OF their
investment. At that moment the
combination had obtained control
of all the available water power,
and most of the available spruce
timber. What they needed to carry
out their plans was protection fro n
the possible competition of the
Canadian forests and water powers.
Mr.. Norris told the conn ittee
plainly that if the additional duty
were imposed it would mean the
,,A'reation of a paper trust and an
increase in the price of paper. II
told the i also, and this is right
the point, that the removal of the
duty on print paper would prevent
the formation of combination.
ut would 81 ply make impossible, y
said Mr.. Norris, ANY combination
in SO far as it attempted to raise the
price Of paper. It would be an au-
tomato check upon any monopoly
The Republican members of the
ways and means committee we're
we'll aware Of all these facts. They

Are We Still Where
We Were in the
Dark Ages?
Eminent Physician Claims
That There Are Only Two
or Three Maladies That
We Really Know
How to Cure.

Have you ever had a cold, doe
tor?" This question was put to an
eminent physician, who replied IN
| the affirm alive.
What do you DO, doctor, when
YOU have a cold?" was the mex
question.
"Oh, / take a big drink Of whis-
Ky or some Quinine Or ammonia and
then let the cold run it's course; that
is, if it's mere cold.
Then, doctor, you know OF moth
ing in the entire range Of medicine
that will give immediate relief from
q cold in the head, for instance?"
"Emphatically, no; unless, perhaps,
new drug that I hear Oft may
accomplish it.
Doctor, what do you do when
a patient has pneumonia?
Give 'em good nurse and
mighty little medicine, but plenty
of fresh air, and let 'em go"
What do you do, doctor. when Il
child or adult has diphtheria or
croup?"
Naturally, I give them Anti
Toxin if 1 know my patient has
diphtheria; or Muco-Solvent.
"Muco Solvent when given in the
incipiency of diphtheria or Group re-
duces the mortality to zero, and il
given in time, prevents development
at all"
Then, doctor, if you have a ba5
containing quinine-some mercury
--iodide of potash--a little pepsin,
etc, you have enough to do about
all the good for q patient that the
vast array of chemicals and drugs
pretend TO do.
That's about it. my boy"
Doctor. is there cure for ca
tarrh?"
mot that / know Of, unless thi
new drug can effect it.
Can you take a man with head,
as he thinks it, stuffed up with
cold, and give relief at once"
No, decidedly no.
Can you take hay fever and
give absolute relief to the sufferer
in TWO minutas?'
No"
"Can you take a person sufferine
from ouinsy sore throat and give
them something that will enabl
them to eat a meal without pain
twenty-four hours after giving?'
'.No. and I could make a million
ii I could do 50.
Have you anything that you can
leave with mother, assuring her
that if at the first symptom Of fever
or cold. she gives it to the sufferer
that she can rest easy as to GROUP,
diphtheria, scarlet fever, pharnys'-
It's, grippe, ouinsy. sore throat, etc.
that can be used as a spray gargle
or given internally with impunlty;
that can be used fot certain thing
in pref renee to bichlorate of mer-
curry, carbolic acid, etc, and vastly
more effective?"
Intellectually, no.
Well, then, get wise, doctor, Tor
Muco-Solvent will do all OF those
things. Eminent physicians like Dr..
VIM. C. Boteler of the Northwestern
University Of Kansas, say it does
these things, and one of the bei.

GOLD CIRCLE HOTEL MAN

Frank J. smyth, now running a hotel

Mr.. Smyth was exhibiting some sam
Piles of gold bearing ore today which he

trict in which his town of Midas is
located. The specimens which he has
with him are fabulously rich. The great
fakes and chunks of pure yellow gold
protrude from the rock so hat they
may be easily scraped or picked away
with the fingers.
The specimens are from the rich
strike recently made on what is known
as the Boyle lease, three miles south of
Midas. The first shipment from this
strike consisted of 235 sacks of ore

BUCKSKIN CERTAIN TO
BECOME GOOD PRODUCER

Captain John Shay, one of the old
timers of the desert, is in from the
Buekskin district, replete with news of
the camp.
The Kennedy Consolidated 10 cnder
bond for $150,000. The Los Angeles
people, who have the bond, also have a
lease that extends for a long term. They
are working three shifts on the prop
erty and are now down 10 feet. The
ledge was cut at 140 feet. A shipment
was made that run ST. in gold and 20
per cent copper. A gasoline hoist and
pump have been installed.
As yet the extent of the ledge has
not been determined and the indications
are that this will become one of the big
mines of the state.
The Original Buckskin company, ad.
joining, is owned by Captain Hassell,
John s. Cook and Geo. +. Won Polenz.
From surface indications this is the
best property in Buckskin. There is an
iron Gaping extending nearly the
length of the property and is about 300
feet wide. The Gaping is nearly solid
metal, carrying good values in gold.
The formation is similar to that of the
Kennedy Consolidated. The indications
are that this immense iron Gaping lies
over the main ledge of the district.
Burke & Mclaughlin, also Goldfeld
people, have a property adjoining the
Original Buckskin on the north. They
have a shaft down $50 feet, equipped
with a gasoline hoist. The company
has shut down awaiting the arrival of a
pumping plant. The shaft has encoun-
tered copper ~sulphides carrying some
gold values.
West of the Kennedy Consolidated is
a group of claims owned by Mr.. Hardy
and the late L. w. Bond. This ledge
carries straight gold values. There are
three feet of good milling ore and this
should prove one of the good properties
of the camp.
There are several other good looking
properties in the camp and there is
every evidence that Buckskin will be-
come one of the good camps of the
state.
The Goldfield news. [volume] (Goldfield, Nev.) 1904-1911, 1908-12-05

can be secured. Some of the samples
of this will run as high as $4,000 a ton,
or $40 per pound.
The Queen group, east of Esmeralda
group, is another rich section. The rock
there is a deeomposed tale and the own
ers are actually taking out their gold
with a placer cradle. Three men are
now at work on a seam which is ten
inches in thickness and Mr.. Smyth says
that with a common s~luieing apparatus
they are clearing up from 5 to % ounces
of pure gold a day.
Another rich-looking specimen which
Mr.. Smyth has with him, is a piece of
tellurium ore which has been roasted.
The gold in this ore is not visible with
the naked eye but upon subjecting it
to great heat the pure metal wells out
of the seams of the rock in great golden
globules like the drops OF the sides of
a pitcher of cold water on a hot day.
Samples of this ore assayed $4,000 per
ton and were taken from a claim four
miles east of Midas.
Mr.. Smyth is naturally much inter
ested in the district from which he
comes and prophesies much for its flu
ture. A number of Ogdenites are heav-
lily interested in the Gold Circle dis
trict.

Captain John Shay, who is a recent
arrival from Granite district in the
Walker reservation, brings some en-
eOuraging news.
A hoist is being installed on a lease
on the Big 20, which is owned by Mrs.
Mingle. All report very favorably ON
other Granite leases. A great many
leasers are getting ready to ship their
ore to the ten-stamp mill, which has
Just been completed at Sehurz.
There are several leases on the Buzz
saw and Pack Saddle claims, which are
owned by the Exploration company at
T~onopah. A few days ago a body OF
very nice shipping ore was encountered
there. 1t is from three to four feet IN
thickness. Everything looks at present
as though there will be a greater boom
in Granite district in the near future
than there was last summer.
Captain Hassell and Captain Shay
own a group of claims about a mile
southwest of Granite They have just
completed the annual assessment work
upon them. There are two separate
formations on the property, one copper
and one gold. They are all showing up
