hardened and resembles true veins,
Yet the foundation must BE- sought
for in the igneous rocks, close to the
volcanic action or its tributaries. Sec
ondary rocks, the sedimentary con-
tains nothing but secondary deposits
unless igneous dykes have passed
through it. In that case the dyke or
fissure would pass through the red bed
and into the granite.
Passing from any action in the sedI-
mentary formation miles from anv
volcano mineral exists in large auan-
titles that has not been uncovered,
simply because it produces no float.
1t is the small particles that creeped
along with the action of water until
it found its resting place along faults
and cavities as gold will collect In
sluice boxes. the precious metals hav-
ing greater specific gravity than ST.
lica it settled in all washed cavities
and against faults before the sedi-
mentary material hardened. This Is
simply an illustration of secondary de-
posit, but it will be found when OPEN
ed that the ore will be in larger bodies
than in the miners operating at the
present time. There is not the least
doubt but the main ore deposits of
the La Plata mountains have not been
encountered. There is but one mine in
the entire district opened on a true
vein, yet veins are there by the score.
The majority are plodding along in the
dark on small branch expecting to
make mines. The country has been
poorly handled from start to finish.
II it had not been, Cripple Creek would
have been second in the production of
gold instead Of first Think of it,
a district opened for over twenty years
and only about one mine opened on a
true vein and fissure and only about
600 feet from an old crater, but they
left the crater unexplored through
Ignorance of geology, that has been, is
now and will be for years if worked,
but it lies idle. 1t is not policy to
place before the public the exact spot
where these action are, it would in
iure those whom are outside of the
mineral zone. Another vital point In
the La Plata district is the prospector
doing his annual work with a lead
pencil, depriving his fellow man from
securing any territory when it would
benefit him. Secure what you can
work and work it. Do not stake fifty
to 100 claims and then hold them with
two or three hundred dollars worth Of
work. 1t is not lawful and Injuries
yourself and the country. Take what
you can work and concentrate your Ia
Dor in one place. There will be more
mines opened.
Another drawback to the country IL
the prospectors' prices on prospects.
Be reasonable, give the investor .
chance for his money. The prospec-
tors dream is wonderful piece Of
imagination. After each dream mis-
property gets more valuable until a
ten-foot hole is worth millions. II
you can get fair price, don't refuse.
Be reasonable with capital and it will
help you. Pull for your main in
dustry in this county-mining-
the growth of Durango will surprise
the world.

Inter ISLAND
line NAY BE
ABANDONED

Money is held too tightly. on the
coast and throughout the mainland to
warrant the establishment OF a new
inter-island coasting steamship line to
operate a number of passenger and
freight carriers between ports in the
Philippine islands. The excessive cost
of construction at this time is also
given as another reason for the drop.
ping CT q project for an increased
steamer service with the eastern pos
sessions Several months ago the pre-
hminary steps were taken by a num-
Der of prominent shipping men to-
wards organizing an inter-island
steamship company Business men,
particularly those having agencies in
the provinces or engaged in provincial
trade, were invited to subscribe capt.
tai. ;
With a view to constructing six
first-elass up to date passenger and
freight steamers. fitted particularly
for the coastwise trade, inquiries
were made at the leading shipyards
iRsEngland as to cost, time of deliY-
cry, ETC., to which replies we're re-
ceiged a few gays ago stating that
due to heavy demand for tonnage cou-
pied with increase Of wages, cost Of
construction would reach more than 20
per cent over that of normal figures.
This fact coupled with the present
stringency in the money market in
duced the promoters to abandon the
proposition until some future time.
