SUNNYSIDE HAS BIG FUND ID START WORK
 EARLY NEXT MONTH

By the recent deal for the purchase of the Sunnyside property the com pany's treasury was enriched to the amount of SS6,5OO. Part of this is in money and the remainder in notes from larger capitalists who have made the purchase. They are the same men who control the United Eastern and their notes are bankable anywhere, and, therefore. as good as the cash.
 But for an error in the publication of a notice calling a stockholders meeting the company would have been enabled to start operations within the next few days. A meeting was intend ed to be called for September ', but through the discovery of the error it cannot be held until October 2.
 The object of the meeting is to get the authority of the stockholders to increase the capital stock from 1,000,- 900 to 100000 shares. This cannot be accomplished otherwise nor in less time, hence the call for the meeting.
 With this plan ratified the new man agement will take hold and start off on a career of large development, sec ond to none in the camp for extent and effectiveness. It will take on the same general force as the develop ment of the United Eastern, now one of the greatest gold mines in the world.
 The Sunnyside lies out beyond the Telluride, to the southeast of what is considered the inside or main ledge groups of the camp. It has consider able work done. One shaft is down 16O feet, another no and third 100. It has compressor and all equipment for sinking, which should obviate any delay for machinery which other com panies have suffered.
 The fact that the company hereto fore has been controlled by interests that were well in touch with the inner facts of the Tom Reed mine is of itself significant. Paddy Mullen, for many years foreman of the Tom Reed, was at the head of the Sunnyside company prior to the sale, and for intimate knowledge of the strike and course of lodges, the great continuity longitudi- nally of ore shoots and first hand knowledge of Oatman mining condi- tions in general, there are few su- perior to him in camp.
 When work starts under the new management it is going to be the equal of any four or five of the smaller operations that have had to close down for lack of finances.

MINING MAN MEETS
 WITH BAD ACCIDENT
LFrom wednesday'e Daily MinsrI

Henry M. Crowther president and manager of the Arizona-Butte Mines company, met with a serious accident Tuesday, while returning to the prop erty on Stockton Hill. While climbing the hill near the company's holdings the engine of his Oakland car, stopped and when he applied the brakes he discovered to his dismay that they would not hold.
 The car backed over the grade and turned over and rolled down side of the hill to the bottom of the canyon about 1000 feet below. The car was almost completely demolished but for tunately Mir. Crowther escaped only a few bad bruises. He is able to be about and attend to his duties. That he was not more seriously hurt is considered a miracle.

CLUB
 ID HOLD SMOKER
From oatman Section Daily Minsr.I


 A get-together smoker for members only will be held at the Ocotillo club Saturday evening. A fine luncheon and refreshments of as clleery a na- ture as conditions in an arid state will permit will be served.
 The club is performing an impor- tant work for Oatman, being the en- tertainer of guests of the town and district who come here to invest money in mines and to get information for large constituencies elsewhere. Secre- tary Frank Reimer ever has the glad hand extended for strangers and sees to their comforts and cheerfully fur nishes information for any wishing it,
 Some plans for increasing the mem- bership of the club will be considered and discussed. The club quarters are handsomely furnished and those who enjoy its comforts as members or guests of members are getting more than is generally offered in mining camps of Oatman's age.

the facts of the property are merely favorable enough so that I should ad- wise large expenditures in the hope of making a mine.
 q take it that the majority of per sons expecting to make rush sales of stock are merely inexperienced l prefer to give them the benefit of the doubt and take the charitable view of their case. Some I know are not en- titled to such view, but others are, for there are plenty of people in Oat- man and nonresident ones interested in Oatman, who have not actually done any mining and who have an alto gether wrong idea about the labor and the time it takes to make a mine.
 "It is a new experience to me, and we of Oatman shall find it necessary to disabuse the minds of persons who make the mistake from mere lack of knowledge, for such quick results to be expected from mining investmentsu
 ''That there are times in the -midsV of a great stock boom, like the Mo hawk boom of Goldfield in 1906, when quick money is to be made or lost, is undeniable But mining as mining is not a get-rich-quick business, even with the phrase divested of its offen- sive meaning. It is as safe business as any, safer than many of the branches of agriculture. Sudden for tunes have been made in mining, to be sure, but not in the way of putting in a dollar today and taking out million tomorrow. In this camp espec- iaIly it takes time and every one in vesting money in it's securities should be appraised of the fact and have it known everywhere that quick returns are the very lease to be expected. Any other course will prove detrimental to us in the long run and we should gov ern our actions accordingly"

INVESTORS EXPECT
 RETURNS TOO QUICK, ASSERTS ENGINEER
From oatman Section Daily Miner.l

lfrOm OaLmAn SeCt1On Dally nllueE.l
 Mining engineers of Oatman have problem to contend with for which they claim that while the population of this camp may not stand unique, it, at least, is conspicuous. It is the fact that promoters of companies wish to have things put up in form so that stock selling can proceed something on the lines of a bargain day at Ham burgers, and that right from the mo- ment that the engineers report is written and delivered to the parties who pay for it's writing and delivery. Since it costs them money they have a feeling that it should be worth money to them, that it should have a cash value and that they should be able to realize upon it at profits that engineers pronounce as 'unthinkable." '"
 One of the high-class engineers of Oatman declared to this correspondent that in an experience of many years he never met a more impetuous desire for quick returns in mining as he meets daily in Oatman.
 "Mining is something that takes time," he stated, land the mere ex- animation of a property, drawing the various maps and writing a report, while immensely laborious of them selves, does not make a mine. That has to come afterward. And that takes years and lots of money. It is only in the rarest exceptional cases where a mine that pays all expenses from the surface is found. may not be any better able than the next engi- neer to make a true report on the mer- it's or demerits of'a prospect or prop erty, but one thing is certain and that is that I cannot write a report that will cause a rush for the purchase of stock instanter unless there are oc- cult facts with the property itself to mefit such a report. l cannot make property rich unless it is rich, or can not say I think it will be found so unless there are facts to cause me to arrive at such a conclusion. cannot create a mine in a minute any more fhan a two-year-old colt can be ere ated in a minute, and if persons who come to me with offers of employment in my professional capacity expect to do a rush act at stock selling my first advice should be to enlist the services of some other engineer, provided, of course that a real engineers services in that direction can be enlisted.
 'HTo state facts as I find them and to arrive at conclusions from geologi- cal and mineralogical features l con ceive to be the office of man in my calling. If such facts and con- clusions happen to be of an alluring nature and have the effect of creating a desire upon the part of the public for the shares, nothing can please me more. But because men or companies employ me and pay me their money, does not imply that I am to write a report that is favorable where the facts are unfavorable, or that l am to make the report so alluring that it will cause rush for the stock where
