The Shannon Lease
Rawhide Mining

At the Morrissey lease on the estate
of the Rawhide Mining company this
same ledge is showing a width of IA
feet and has a value of from $l5 to $25
per ton. A large tonnage of that char
acter of ore is blocked ont below ground
and a considerable tonnage is piled on
dump. No attempt at ore extraction is
being made at the present. however,
nor will there be until such time as the
Rawhide Mining eompany's mill is in
commission. Thereafter ore will NOV
regularly to stamp. Now that assur-
ance is given of intent to complete the
Rawhide Western railway before the
close of the year, A. A. Codd, gen
eral manager of the Rawhide Mining
company, is preparing to establish a
mill near Schurz. just at first the plant
will be in the market for custom ores,
but only until time as the ore output
from the Last Chance claim of the com
pany, and from the st. Ives lease on the
Queen is in tonnage sufficient to keep
the stamps constantly dropping. Work
has been resumed upon the Gillilland
lease on the Last Chance claim under
very promising mineral conditions, and
the company is preparing to begin de-
velopment on its own account.

The st. Ives Lease

Another vein has been opened up in
the crosscut from the 200-foot level of
the st. Ives tease shaft on the estate of
the Rawhide Queen Mines company. 1t
was encountered in from the station sill
a length of 143 feet, and has a width
of four feet. Like the one encountered
at the 122-foot point in the cut, 1T
breaks to a high milling average. Both
lodges dip to the west, and are evil
IDENTIFY feeders from the main ledge
opened at surface some months ago, and
toward which the crosscut is now being
driven. A small shipment of high
grade went out from the lease a few
days ago to the sampler at Hazen.
A. A. Codd, manager of the lease,
states that the main contact will be
reached within 40 feet more of cross
cutting.

The Westover Lease

A shipment of ore estimated to have
average value of at least $50 the ton,
is being prepared at the Westover lease
in the north end of the camp. 1t will
90 out before the close of the current
month. The ore is mined from the
south drift at the 50-foot level in the
continuation to the northeast of the
main Coalition dyke system. The en-
tire face of the drive breaks high grade
millin. with a 20-ineh section of $50
rock. Mr.. Westover has about 100
sacks of that grade ore piled near the
shaft, and has about 80 tons of similar
value piled loose on dump.

James Brothers Lease
A 20-inch streak of ore varying in
value from $40 to $500 the ton has been
discovered at the James Brothers lease
on the Hoodlum claim since the filing
of last weeks dispatches from this
point. The deposit is identical with
that exposed in the King Hill lease
workings on the estate Of the Rawhide
Coalition Mines company, and is in
fact, the continuation to the northeast
of that valuable ledge. In the James
workings the ore is badly decomposed
where opened in the 40-foot level, but
it presents evidences of making into a
solid and compact ore body at greater
depth. Just at present no effort is be
ing made to sack ore for shipment, but
a good bit of the truck is being run
through a wet washer. A few days 9
three ounces of gold were reclaimed
dbVut RNV HVhhiN VI tih hfatttis
This would indicate that the 20-inch
streak has an average value approx
mating 800 the ton.
The Shannon Lease
Adjoining the James leasehold on the
northeast is that of Shannon and as
sociates. The shaft is down So feet.
From its bottom a crosscut was run out
to the east 46 feet to contact with the
same ledge exposed in the King Hill
lease on the Coalition, the James lease
the Hoodlum and the Morrissey lease
the Last Chance claim of the Raw
hide Mining company. The ledge has
been intersected a width of Ia feet in
the Shannon workings, and stands true
and strong between well-deined walls.
1t holds an average gold content of 81
ner ton. |

Bryan On Tariff Issue.

The Buffalo Times says: Through
out his entire speech there Is found
instances of the creation, growth and
OF the trusts from the
high protective tariff which the Re
publican party has maintained. That
1t has been maintained for the advan-
tage of the predatory interests and u
the disadvantage OF the American
people is shown in most conclusive
manner. Mr.. Bryan's speech viii take
its place among the ablest papers on
the tariff question ever written. The
Democratic nominee urges as RELIEF
that the tariff shall be reduced grad
ually to a revenue basis. and, as the
initiative step, that "a material reduc-
tion--as the Democratic platform says
upon the necessities OF life, espt-
eiaiis upon goods competing with such
American manufacturers as are sold
abroad more cheaply than At home.
The tariff is tax. The consumer
pays IL. The question OF justice Il:
taxation is essential feature CT the
tariff problem. Enough has been
shown in this one speech OF Mr. Bryan
TO expose the dishonesty of The high
protection argument. The tariff hon
estly fixed grants protection 10 indus
try and manufacturers, but 1t is levied
MS matter Of taxation. When the
tariff rates and the policy OF the Re-
publican party in fixing and maintain
ing those rates are examined IL -
found as Mr.. Bryan shows, that the
rates are fixed by the special priv
ilage classes; that these predatory
interests are the sole beneficiaries.

return for contribution to Republican
campaign funds Hinged around this
question are many of the evils against
