Cooperstown Sentinel: Announce
ment Of the sale of The Fargo Forum
was made Nov. IL. J. F. Dotson is
the purchaser. He I'M from Crook
ston Times. II. c.. Plumley, the re-
firing editor and publisher, has been
with The Forum twenty-one years,
He has often been unfair in politics
and pursued a course that could not
help but be a detriment to the state,
but outside Of politics he has been a
hard worker for the development of
our resources, and we cannot but adj
mtre the fight he and his asso-
ciates have mad The publishing bus
mess has come to be one of the
main things requisite to Jul civiliEa-
ton: Without u newspapers we
would soon be on the toboggan-slide
to the "jungles." But still the publish
ing business seems to be one of the
least remunerative vacations of the
age, and the retiring publisher of The
farmer or merchant, has lain little aside
to secure him against the needs of his
declining years. But he will have the
good wishes of his fellow publishers
throughout the great northwest, who
best can understand his struggles and
know the true inwardness of the man.
Coggswen Enterprise: The Fargo
Forum has been sold to ]. P. Dotson
of Crookston, Mimi, for $52,5o0. H. c..
Plumley steps down and out and after
giving the best of his life in an EFFORT
TO make The Forum the leading paper
In the state. That he has built up a
great paper, cannot be denied, and If
there is any criticism to offer, 1T is
because he has given the public a bet
ter paper than the business has war
ranted. 1t has been truthfulIy said
no man in North Dakota's newspaper
field had more genuine friendships than

Enderlin Independent: The Fargo
Forum has been sold to Mr.. Dotson of
Crookston, who will take Immediate
possession. The Forum has been a
leading factor in the development of
Fargo and North Dakota for the past
twenty years and 1t is with feelings
of sincere regret that we chronicle the
passing of the control OF the paper
from the hands of H. c. Plumley, who
has been so intimately identified with
the paper since its establishment. Mr..
Plumley has worked without ceasing
for the b~etterment of the state for
more han twenty years and If, as lie
says in his farewell, he has attained
no competency from his labors, 1t is
a sad commentary of the emoluments
in any line OF endeavor, has worked
more faithfully and continuously than
he. In the past years the writer has

On Sunday last the Golden camp
had the aspect of populous village
and three auto parties, two from
Goldfield and one from Tonopah
were at the camp looking over the
ground. Photographer Weyle of
Goldfield took out his camera and
took a number OF views OF the dis
trict. There were some 35 or 40
people in the camp and while they
were there a wagon load of rich ore
screenings left for the railroad
With the advent OF capital for de-
velopment at depth and the facili-
ties for treating the medium grade
product that is already exposed or
on the dumps it is apparent that the
Klondyke district will take rank
with some of the formost mining
camps in the state of Nevada In
point of silver production.
While at the main workings. where
Golden is sacking ore from a tunnel
the writer took two pieces of the ore
from the open sacks and upon his
return submitted one of them to c.
Fl Ellsworth to assay The certifi
cate was received today and showed
2679 OF. silver and 0S OF. gold per
ton, or total value of $1,000 per
ton. The other specimen. which is

to be making an excellent showing.
Mr. Arnold is now in the east and
the work is being supervised by his
son. Emory. Edwin Protheroe of
the Goldfield Hotel owns ground ad-
joining the Golden properties on the
west and has an excellent surface
showing. The Fleming property of
five claims, situated in the eastern
part of the district, is also being
worked and has exposed some good
ore. E. Manning of Tonopah for

claims near the foot of Quartz
mountain and has secured a lease
on the Golden property.

the Golden claims and is taking out
some high-grade ore. The Lincoln

opening shows ore of good value
and vein construction OF marked uni

have been sunk. two or three to so
or 60 feet, but nearly all the work
has been in tunnels that have gained
