GOLD NEAR SILvERT0k
MEXICAN HERDER DISCOVERS
RICH GOLD QUARTZ.
Reported That Vein Is Running from
$1,000 to $4,000 in vaIues-Two
Strikes In Needle Mountain

Silverton, Colo.--The territory at
the head of Lime creek, about six
miles from Silverton, is alive with
prospectors and mining men. all bent
on stalking ground on the rich gold
lead discovered by A. NJ. Hubbard and
associates. The rush to that section
is the greatest that Silverton has ex-
perienced in many years.
Recent heavy rains had uncovered
a vein of brown quartz and through
curiosity a Mexican sheep herder in
the employ of Hubbard broke off a
piece of the vein and took it to the
camp. Close examination showed 1t
to be literally sprinkled with free
gold, with values of from $4,000 to
$4,000 ton.
The ricn streak is about two inches
wide. The main vein, which is little
over two feet in width, shows aver
age values of two and one-half ounces
in gold. The strike is in a section
that has been but slightly prospected
and will probably eventually add sew
eral miles of mining territory to San
Juan county.
In the Needle mountain district.
sixteen miles south of Silverton, two
big strikes were reported here. one OF
native silver from the claims that in
the early days were owned and op.
Grated by Miss Effie Elier. The sec
ond. and from reports the most i'm.
portant. is an immense vein of brown
quartz more than twelve feet in
width which, carefully sampled by an
experienced mining man several hun
dred feet long the outcropping
showed an average of 72-100 of an
ounce in gold and $50 ounces in sill
yer.

Denyer.-Governors of many states
who were in attendance on the COVER
nors' conference at Colorado Springs
and later were entertained in Denver:
departed for their homes, and each
state head had nothing but praise lot
Colorado and Denver.
Governors w. H. Mann of Virginia,
w. It. Haines of Maine, o. b. Colqu1tt
Of Texas, Francis 4. McGovern OF
Wisconsin and Emmet O'Neal OF Ala
bama, were among the last OF the ex-
ecutives to depart from Denver. Ana
each governor said that next to his
own state he would rather i've IN
Colorado than any other.
Denver is one of the most pro-
gressive cities l have ever visited
declared Governor McGovern. He
found no one who would dispute him
as he looked about the lobby OF the
hotel, so he refused to argue the mat
ter.
"It is SO placed" he continued,
that 1t cannot help but grow steadily
as long as this world turns around as
it has a habit of doing. One thing
which / would like to see Denver have
is large army post at Fort Logan.
And l cannot seq how the Department
of War can do otherwise than tend to
this matter in the right way.
Denver is the logical geographical.
climatic and commercial center of the
west. and it should be given great
military support. War or no war,
city such as this gains a great deal
by having a military significance and
the government could find no better
spot in tho west in which to place an
extensive headquarters than hero.
And think that 1t would be a matter
of economy, too. to place soldiers
here for provisions are very reason
able all over Colorado.
"Yes, sah," said Governor Mann OF
Virginia, this is city that you all
have built. 1t reminds me OF the
cities of the south, it Is SO comfort
able to look upon and its people are
SO hospitable. All the governors are
pleased with their cordial welcome
both here and at Colorado Springs"
Governor Ammons had but one set
back in the entertainment of the gov
ernors. He threatened at the be-
ginning of the conference to marry
Governor McGovern to Colorado girl.
Governor McGovern is known among
his fellow executives as the bachelor
governor" but he left this state still
a bachelor.
