$4,000 CAR
. OF ORE EXPRESSED
FROM PIONEER

Richer and richer grows the ore
body in the winze from the 21O-foot
level of the Pioneer cease. An official
of the company states that two
rounds of shots in the winze broke
ore that we consider worth between
$4,000 and 1000" So rapid has
been the increase of values that gen.
eral wonderment is expressed. The
claim that the Pioneer will equal ii
not eclipse anything that Goldfield
has produced in rich deposits is be-
ing speedily proven
A week ago the uncovering of a
very rich ore in the winze was an
nounced. The day following the ore
was found to be in such quantity and
with Increasing richness that the
sacking of it right in the winze was
deemed advisable. During the week
500 sacks have been filled and go to-
day to the sampler at Goldfield &C.
companied by representative of the
company to supervise its sampling.
Besides this, at Springdale today are
five carloads of ore which are be-
lieved will average a good 500 per
ton, which has been extracted from
the 210 foot level, some forty feet
above the bottom of the winze. And
some of it comes from the drift on
that level away to the southeast
seventy feet distant. So it seams
that 1t is not question of ore, nor
of rich ore. for the management, but
the most expeditions and economical
method of extraction.
For this purpose the crosscut on
the 110-foot level is being pushed to
connect with the old Gold Hills shaft,
to provide ventilation and possibly an
avenue for extraction of ore. At the
mouth of the winze, room is being
made for placing the new electric
hoist, which will be installed just as
soon as possible, as it is greatly
needed in every respect
The strike of very rich ore has in
creased the discussion of the dividend
this week and the consensus of opin-
ion is that 1t is nearer and more GER
tain than ever. 1t is generally con-
coded that last months production
will more than take the company out
of debt and pay for all recent expen-
sive requirements. The company is
judged to have produced more than
100000 worth of ore, and will
emerge from this months liquida-
lions with quite sum in the treas
ury. With the same amount of ton
mage shipped the recently increased
value of ore will soon put a hand
some surplus ON hand Fairly rea-
sonable calculations have put the
amount of the dividend at Is cents
per share, or total of $135, 900 for
the 100000 shares outstanding. Of
course this Is all speculation, moth
ing is concluded or will be determin-
ed until later, and then by the board
of directors But the foregoing is
fair presentment of present condi-
tions. -Rhyolite Herald.

IN THE MAIL SERVICE.

1t is given out informally that
Mr. Taft will not encourage the
idea of Negro postmasters in the
South. For years there has been IL
persistent effort in the Postoffice
Department to fill the postal ser
vice with Negroes. The Ledger
has no protest to make, but suggests
that already the Negroes are mo-
nopolizing the railway mail service
and the letter carrier service.
The railway mail service requires
an examination, and the Negro ap-
plicants are prepared for it very
carefully, and they are gradually
crowding the white clerks out. The
same thing may be said of the let
ter carrier service. 1t is under the
Civil Service and an examination
is required and the Negroes are spe-
cially drilled and get on the eligible
list. White men do not give the
time and study necessary, and it
will not be long before the service
will practically belong to the ambi-
tious Negroes who work and study
to get there.
In the South it is not well to have
Negro postmasters, for the people
do not want it. There is no objec-
ton to Negroes in the carrier SER
vice, nor in the railway mail ser.
vice, and it is well to stay in the
lines that do not provoke friction.
Southern white men do not study
to get in the mail service, and yet
it is an honorable service, and the
pay is good. There is no reason
why a man who is willing to start
at $50 month should not carry the
mail till he can get 81 900 and more.
1t does require study and persist
ence, and the Negroes are WORKING
to get the places, and they are get
ting them. The postmasters are

Five thousand dollars for one

amount that was paid to close the
Great Northern Theatre, Chicago.
Something never heard of before

theatrical world. Information on
the matter has been kept quiet.
1t only leaked out on Monday
night. 1t seems that the affair
was arranged early in January TO
have the stars and their. company
one night in the last week of their
engagement. To do this the house
had to be bought out. And the
trouble did not end at this juno
ton, and the matter was forward
ed to New York to be settled. AT

was finally agreed upon to allow
the company to appear before the
most select audience of Chicago.

due time the Negro would rise, as
do all men within the same environ
ment, to the same heights of Chris
tian citizenship. The Negro has
slowly but surely came up to the
common standard of American citi-
zenship. He is an industrious and
skilled laborer, he is a devoted par
ent; he is a patriot loving the flag
that carries liberty to all the world.
To him the great opportunities of
life have come only through the
martyred President. To the fast
diminishing remnant of thone who

of Lincoln is almost sacred. To

THE YOUNG MAN.

Had all traditions, arrange
ments, creeds, societies that man
ever instituted, sunk away, this
would remain, the certainty of
hegoes being sent u.s." thus says
Carlyle in his famous Hero Wor-
ship" Our country and all our
people pause this week in their busy
rush of business to pay tribute to
the greatest hero ever sent us
Abraham Lincoln, the greatest and
most remarkable character in Am
erican history. Born under adverse
circumstances the story of the rise
of this man reads like a romance.
Born in. 1909, of poor shiftless par
ents, his mother taught him to
read. Like many other boys Of his
time he was early injured to hard
ship of the pioneer life There were
many and long hours for hard work
and few days for school. But the
lofty ambition implanted in
young Lincoln by his mother was
ever urging him onward. At all
times, and in all places he was seek
ing for knowledge and building d
character for honesty and integrity
His early years were spent among
the hardy settlers of Kentucky and
Illinois and one memorable trip
down the Mississippi river, when
the full hideousness of slavery was
laid bare before him. From that
hour he became the champion Of
the common people and through
their confidence in him was elevat
ed to the Presidency.
HIS PREPARATION.
Lincoln went to the White House
duly prepared for the great work
before him. Previous to his eleva-
ton to the Presidency he had been
flat boat-man that he might know
first hand the evils of slavery and
his great mind revolt. He became
salesman in store and postmaster
of an Illinois town. He served in
the militia and became a captain
in the Black Hawk War, serving
along with many officers who af-
terwards became famous in Amer
lean history. He became lawyer,
"a legislator, and a statesman. AT
no time in the history Of Lincoln S
y life does he descend to the level of
the political trickster. He believed
in the people. He believed in hon
estly putting his case before them
and accepting their verdict. The
years of Lincoln's s preparation for
the Presidency were momentlous IN

American history. The new govern
men formed but a few years before
his birth was torn with dissension
and the great climax of its life was
soon to come. Notification and
secession first appeared in Jack
son s time, and continued under
various phases to show itself. 1t
was seen in the heated discussion of
the right of the States and Terri
tories to legislate for the control of
slavery. The famous debates Of
Douglas and Lincoln added to the
nation s confidence in Lincoln
Though defeated for the United
States Senate by Douglas, he be-
came the logical candidate of the
Republican party and won in the
campaign of 1860.
THE EMANCIPATION.
Various people have their esti-
mates of America s great men. To
some Washington stands as the
ideal of American manhood and pa
triot. To others Lincoln, the war
President,-"a a unique and marvel
Gus man, who has no parallel per-
sonality in the history of man.
kind" " Especially to the Negro,
does this great sad parsonage stand
as an apotheosis. Lincoln believed
in the perpetuity of the govern
ment. He hated slavery because it
was contrary to all ethics of our
government and to the teachings
of the God whom he loved. He
knew that in the back ground of
secession, the slavery question was
omnious and almost paramount.
AS President of the United States
his supreme purpose was to save
the government and bring back the
seceeding states. The emancipation
of the slaves was measure calcu-
lated to cripple the South and
hasten victory for Northern arms.
1t did not come when many honest
abolitionist demanded it, and it
came sooner than many critics of
Lincoln throught proper. In meet
ing the many emergencies of his Of
flee, during the exciting years OF
the Civil War, the nation had came
to appreciate the true greatness OF
the man. With the emancipation
four million Negroes at once be-
came humble worshipers at his
shrine.
