Gold Ore Still in Bonanza.

Reports from the Gold Ore mine yes terday conveys the information that the drift on the $50 level is still being driven in good ore. While the full face of the drift averages about 30$ there is still encountered stringers of exception ally rich ore. Some of this comes in kidneys, which, when broken, shows massive gold. The management is driving ahead as fast as possible to get to another objective point, where still better average ore is expected. An average of 3O$ for large ore body is not bad in any country, and with the Gold Road mill only short distance away the property could be put on a pay basis at once.
 During the last year the company has sold considerable tonnage of ore from the mine ranging above 25$ to the ton in value. With the opening of greater ore bodies the company will soon be enabled to either sell it's ores to advantage or put in a plant of its own. The management has been most conser- vative and every dollar secured from stock sales has found its way into de- velopment.

Silver Question to the Front.

An echo of the silver and gold con- troversy of a score of years ago is rumbling in the statehouse and is ex- pected to grow in volume until it reaches the proportion of crash of thunder as the result of a joint memor- ial to congress introduced in the house of representatives by Thomas Tonge of Denver.
 The memorial recites the charges that the worlds monetary system is an inverted pyramid, that the commerce of the world is more and more becoming dependent upon silver as medium of exchange, that the great war is chang ing conditions so that metal money will be in greater demand than ever, and urges congress to arrange with the nations of the world for an inter- national commission to arrange for a fixed ratio of silver with gold.
 In the opinion of many representa- tives and senators the proper present ratio would be 26 to 27 to l, or price of 75 cents at against 1.29$ on the old 16 to 1 ratio. Others have other theor- ies and many are said to be opposed to the memorial and its purpose.
 Another faction is of the belief that any silver legislature should originate in the East, lest the rest of the nation and the world at large think the Vest ern states are putting forth only their own benefits in proposing such a com mission.
 The author of the memorial asserts that as a result of the war credits and paper money will be valueless and the price of silver be boosted and the ratio with gold reduced proportionatel y.--- Denver Mining Record.
