RESCUE DRIVES FOR VEIN

The Rescue Eula is now running
a north cross-cut in the Eula Claim
which will cross-cut the entire claim
on the $50 level. The management
has expectations of cutting the Occi-
dental claim of the Belmont on this
level. This was in it's time one of
the most prominent veins in the, Bel
mont. The face of the crOss-cut is
now in very favorable formation and
lis liable to break into the vein at
any time. The company is also pros
pecting the Maggie May claim. 1t
has cut several stringers of rich ore.

.COMSTOCK MINES
FAR FROM DEAD
INTERESTING OUTLINE OF AC-
INVITES IN FAMOUS OLD
MINING DISTRICT

The Comstock mines are shaking
off the ghostly raiment with which
a recent magazine story invested the
town of Virginia City. In the last
half of October and the first quar-
ter of November, Union Consolidat-
ed and Sierra Nevada explored high
grade orebodies on the $500 level.
The ore in the Comstock north side
mines has been running from So to
$12 per ton, with an occasional
shoot of higher grade. Recent dis
closures have increased the value to
a probable average of $40 per ton.
AS early as the week ended Oct. Is,
Con. saved SO cars averag-
ing, $40 per ton and 80 cars which
averaged 500 per ton.
In the same week Sierra Nevada
ran into ore worth $11 per ton and
in the week ended Oct. %, the face
of the north drift of the $500 level
showed ore running as high at $3.50
per ton, with an encouraging out
look in this neighborhood. In the
same week the north end of No. l
stope of the Union $500 level was IN
ore avraging $40 per ton. At anoth-
er point samples showed $50 per ton.
The present ore saved from this
stope on the Union in the week end
ed Oct. 80, and in the same week
Sierra Nevada extended the north
drift 10 feet into ore averaging
1924 per ton, while the first week
in November, Sierra Nevada saved
ore averaging $33 per ton and I'm
ion Con. found various grades run
ming $13.72, $24.60 and $45.16.
Herman Zadig, one Of the dir
rectors, returning to San Francisco
from Virginian City, after a visit
to the Northend mines, stated that
the recent development in the Sier-
ra Nevada proved the contention of
himself and other directors that the
Comstock was not dead. He con-
sidered this disclosure of ore of
great Importance, because it was in
the Sierra Nevada in 1878 that the
bonanza people thought they had
found another orebody similar to the
one that was then being wOrken in
the Con. Virginia.
Messrs. Zadig, SlossOn and Rails
ton have been sanguine that large
orebodies would be found in the
$500 and 270O levels. In their opin-
ion the work now being done on the
$500 level proves to a certainty that
there is a chance of extensive ore
bodies at this point.
1t seems reasonable that If the
early day management had believed
in 1878 that ore existed in large
bodies to the 200 level, they would
have mined it, because silver was
then worth $1.29. However without
assuming to disagree with these
opinions it may be taken as indis-
putable that Fair and Flood and
Mackay did, and left undone, many
things which were incomprehensible
to mining men of that day. The
past performances of the pastmasters
of Comstock mining are not of such
great interest to the present day
management as the fact that the
Comstock ghost has begun to walk
again.-Butte Miner.

YALE PRESIDENT HAS GLIMPSE OF
IDEAL

President Hadley Of Yale, in an adj
dress the other day, said:
eve must stop buying the newspaper
that tells us what we wish were true, and
buy the one that tries to tell what really
is"
We heartily endorse this sentiment, and
trust the day will come when the news
papers Of America will measure up to the
ideal
But where is one going to find a news
paper that will not warp and misrepresent
facts for the sake of sensationalism
If a man prominent in public life is en-
dorsed by the clique of newspaper com
panies dominating American journalism,
he is lauded to the skies, but if he is on
the blacklist, everything he says is either
ignored, or misquOted and ridiculed.

PRESIDENT ASKS GODS GUIDANCE

1t is related that during the recent ma
tional crisis, President Wilson came to a
cabinet meeting one morning with a
solemn look on his face, and it was evident
that the serious affairs of the nation were
bearing heavily OH his mind. Turning to
the members Of the cabinet, he said, 81
don't know whether you men believe iii
prayer or not / do. Let us pray, and
ask the help Of God" The president
then fell upon his knees, as did the mem
bers Of the cabinet, and offered a prayer
to the Almighty.
However much we may feel inclined to
differ with the policies of the president at
times, let us be thankful that we have a
chief executive who seeks Divine guild
ance He is a man bounded, the same as
other men, by the limitations Of human
vision, and the fact that he is humble
enough to realize his human weakness and
seek the leading hand of Heavenly
Father, inspires our respect.

Cotton is arriving at Galveston and

The business outlook in Oklahoma is es-

and the fair weather of the past few weeks
