GREAT WESTERN TO SOON
REACH THE 30O-FOOT POINT

Steady shipments are being made
from the Great Western mine, the
pioneer producer of the Hornsilver dis
trict, says the Herald
1t looks good to see the big ore teams
drawing huge loads of the precious min
eral, and pulling out across the desert
toward Cuprite, where the ore is loaded
into the ears and sent to the big Bel
mont mill at Millers, which is now one
of the most important milling centers
of Nevada.
The ~freighting of ore from the mine
is an inspiration indeed, and one is
prone to mediate upon what will be
doing in Hornsilver when the Silver
King and other of the close-in proper.
ties join the list of steady producers,
and contribute to the excitement at
tending the hauling of large quantities
of ore through the streets of a mining
camp when the boom is on. -
Those who have pinned their faith
to Hornsilver are looking forward to
Just such times, and with the steady
development in several places such a
time may not be so very far off
The last three shipments from the
Great Western mine continued to give
handsome returns. The sampler sheet
showed that 80 tons had been shipped,
and the lots sampled s45, $44, $47 and
$54. The management announces that
the ore in these shipments was broken
from a four-foot face, and the values
are considered very satisfactory. This
shoot of ore has been exposed for $50
feet on the second or 200-foot level.
The company expects to continue
shipments of three ears a week, for an
indefinite period.
The working shaft will reach the
3O0-foos level this week, and the lateral
will be run northerly to crosscut the
ledge, which is expected to be of good
width and quality.
Great things are looked for upon the
800 level and the management will lose
no time in opening up same.

bilities, together with large and grow
ing dividend disbursements.
Aside from the Cobalts the favorites
are the good coppers, the proven Gold
field issues, the active Tintics, and the
large dividend earners among the divi-
dend paying English controlled COM
panies operating in the United States
and Mexico.
Goldfeld Consolidated is strong
around Ga. 1t is undoubtedly the best
purchase on its technical market posi-
tion among the American gold mining
stocks. Florence, Daisy and Combina-
tion Fraction are wonderfully good
from a speculative standpoint. The pur-
chase of the better class of Rawhide
stocks like Coalition, Queen and Raw
hide Consolidated is recommended.
Rawhide is gaining favor and is getting
to be looked upon as a gold camp with
a future. The better stocks Of the
camp are speeulatively very promising.
Copper metal is rising in price. The
Interests will make it sell at 15c.,
perhaps at Ice by Dee. 18th. The eff
feet on the copper stocks is already evi-
dent. Nevada Consolidated, Cumber-
land Ely, Butte Coalition, Superior &
Pittsburg, British Columbia, Greene
Cananea and Union should all show
good profits if bought now.
Business men look with satisfaction
on the spectacle o. a reviving country.
Within the next few weeks factories
will be reopened everywhere. Idle
money will be looking for investment.
Meritorious enterprises that have been
languishing for lack of support will 60
forward. Advance is the watch
word both in business, in enterprises
and in the securities markets. The
period of uncertainty is at an end. The
period Of confidence is here.

New York, Nov. H. Especial 1.-The
political prophecies of Wall street can
be trusted. The markets nave for weeks
been proclaiming in advance the certain
election of Taft. This column has time
and again reported correctly the trend
Of political sentiment, and the public
now has another demonstration of the
fact that the course of the markets IS
the best barometer in times when polit-
zeal strife seriously affects the future
of business and industry.
We are on the verge of a big bull
market-a bull market in which nearly,
if not all, the standard issues on the
stock exchange will rise to higher
prices-a bull market in which the good
eoppers, the Cobalts and many sound
curb issues will make curb-market his
tory.
In spite Of the present low price of
silver which one day this week touched
40 5-sc per ounce, the growth of the Co
balts into public favor cannot be
stopped. The Cobalt mines produce
their silver at from Sc to 15c per ounce
as against an average of perhaps 25c to
soc for the rest of the world. The out
put of Cobalt mines at present is over
three quarters profit. Nipissing rose to
II Wednesday and it looks as if it
would repeat in a measure its popular
ity and high prices of two years ago.
Niaissing is paying 3 per cent quarterly
on par S. and it is reported that it will
increase it's rate. La Rose, which has
not yet advanced to any extent, is
slated for a big upward move. Cobalts
are strong, not so much on actual ore re-
serves rs on net earnings, low produe-
fion costs, favorable developments in

GoLCONDA LOOKING UP
AS A MINING CENTER

The town of Golconda is again look
ing up as a mining center and mining
men are beginning to realize that the
Kramer hill properties, only two miles
south of the town, are developing into
the biggest mines in the state. A
string of teams loaded with ore being
hauled to the station for shipment Was
evidence enough that the mines had
reached the producing stage. The ore
was from the Lyng-W elshons- Eggers
lease on the Kramer property and was
shipped to the smelter at Salt Lake
City. For The past month some re-
markable disclosures on this lease la
been made and the ore, while exposed
in larbe CODES, there are many streaks
that are fairly alive with the yellow
metal. 1t is this ore that is being
shipped to the smelter.
The rich material is sacked as it is
taken from the ledge. In places the
ledge is over twelve feet wide and in
the workings there are now hundreds
of tons of ore that will pay to mill.
On the Oswald-Thompson lease the
same ore bodies are being developed
and the conditions are about the same.
Only that these holdings are equipped
with a frst-class hoist and is developed
by a shaft to a depth of $50 feet. A
shipment from this lease Melted the
owners a handsome profit. There are
thousands of tons of ore blocked out
ready ito be milled in this lease and as
soon as the big mill at Golconda is in
readiness to receive the ore Kramer
hill will be a busy mining camp with
productive mines.-Star.

KEANE WONDER GOLD
SENT TO RHYOLITE

A gold brick weighing $50 ounces was
brought in from the Keane Wonder
mine by Superintendent John Keith
and deposited in the First National
bank Wednesday. The gold is worth
$15 an ounce, which makes the total
value of the brick $500. This repre-
sents a cleanup of less than ten days.
The output of the mine for the month
of October was about $4,000.
To treat the large quantity of tail
ings, which carry values estimated at
IA, 900 tons, now on the dumps, and that
to be produced, it has been determined
to add a 200-ton cyaniding plant to the
tw~enty-stamp mill which has been in
highly successful operation for the past
wear, during which time only the plate
amalgamation has been treated.
A cyanide plant would have been put
in long 9 had not the management
been confronted with the difficulty OF
procuring an adequate supply OF water.
This obstacle, it is believed, has been
overcome.
With this accusation to its milling
facilities the output on the keane
Wonder will be largely increased dur
ing 1909, and it will doubtless reach
figures that will most agreeably surprise
wen those acquainted with the wonder
full riches of this property. w. e..
Parker, auditor and resident agent for
the company, is very enthusiastic over
the mines prospects.

with its reward, for good quality of
shipping ore has been encountered in
quantity and is being extracted for
shipment. These men have steadily
pursued the bent of their judgment re-
garding the formation and the vagaries
of the vein structure in their ground,
and despite the prophecies of others
have at last proven the correctness of
their deductions and nave reached pay
ore with a most gratifying size of de-
posit. They have struggled with vari-
Gus discouragements, the vein pitched
from the shaft, then it faulted, and
then they had to sink below eighty feet
with a windlass to get by the fault and
have had to hoist everything since from
below eighty feet with the windlass.
This claim adjoins the Great Western
on the northeast, but its vein formation
and the character of its ore is entirely
different and distinct, being almost
wholly a clean, free-milIing gold -orefo of
high grade, and which supports the
claim of many that Hornsilver will yet
prove to be a mining camp in which
gold values will predominant. This de-
velopment is very interesting, and in
connection with similar showings
further to the east in the Lime Point
neighborhood, serves tosincrease the ex-'
tent and varied values of Hornsilver
district.

ment ready to send to the railroad. 1t
is certainly most encouraging that this
work with other recently started opera
tions are resulting in gratifying devel-
opments, and augurs well for the future
of Hornsilver district.
