SEVEN TROUGHS
LIKE NATIONAL
HIGH GRADE ORE IDENTICAL;
MANAGER FRIEDMAN OF
COALITION TALKS


was in Salt Lake exhibiting samples
as large as prizefighter's fist
from his wonderful gold mine, says
the Tribune. These samples would
run several hundred thousand dol
lars to the ton. Yesterday General
Manager l.. A. Friedman of the
Seven Troughs Coalition Mining
company was in town with some
samples as big as quart cup, one
of which showed $4,000 values.
If the samples from the two prop
critics, although several hundred
miles separate them, were shaken
up in sack, it would be difficult
thing for a man unacquainted with
the two properties to make two
piles of the samples and not get
the ore mixed.
A few weeks ago at Reno some
high graders from National were
about to be sent over the road,
when friend of the condemned
happened long and sprung the ques-
| ton of the similarity of the Nation
al and Seven Troughs ores, and by
procuring samples of the high grade
from the Troughs, and showing it's
remarkable similarity. the men were
freed, on the showing that they
might have secured their ore from
Seven Troughs. and not at National.
ION the 300-foot level we have
i opened up three feet of ore which
runs from $50 to $500, said Mr..
friedman. Recently one man who
was working on the 800 level took
out 500 pounds Of ore in day
which was worth several thousand
dollars. Occasionally we find $4O,-
900 picture rock, and at times en-
counter seams which are two-thirds
gold.
Il think the way property looks
right now, that dividend day should
not be far off, and that the Seven
Troughs camp will have some OF
the largest gold mines in the world
Our company has already spent
100000 in the past four years
Our pay roll amounts to $4,000
each month now. We are blocking
out great deal of ore We have
many Slopes from level to leve
which we have not yet touched
slopes which have been only passed
through and proven on three sides
People do not realize the true worth
of Seven Troughs.

Mining company property, is secur
