Miners Seek REIMBURSEMENT
of Freight Rates

At the request of M. B. Tomb
lin, secretary of the State Metal
Miners Assn, a meeting of the
mining men was held in the bank
building last Friday evening to
appoint a committee to attend a
conference with the District
Freight Assn, in Denver next
week. The purpose of the meet
ing in Denver is to prevail upon
the Freight ASSN, to readjust the
rate on ore between Denver and
Pueblo, since the Globe smelter
has definitely decided to close and
have notified mine operators not
to ship any more ore to that plant.
A committee from Gilpin, Clear
Creek, Boulder and Summit coun-
ties will appear before the Freight
Assn, who have intimated that
they may find way to readjust
the rate on ore between Denver
and Pueblo and want to learn
just how the closing of the Globe
plant will affect each of the
counties mentioned.
An effort will also be made by
the committees of the four coun-
ties to have the government rail
way commission eliminate the 25
per cent increase put in force
during the war, as it affects Sec
tions on narrow gauge railroads,
The matter of demurrage will al
so be taken up with the govern
ment.
The carload minimum rate on
ore from Denver to Pueblo is
$1.30 ton and from Central
City to Denver, with the war in
crease, SLIPS a ton.
The committee selected at Fri
day evenings meeting to attend
the conference in Denver to rep
resent Gilpin county is composed
of John McNeill, o. j. Duffield
w. O. Jenkins, w. j. Stull, John
Stroehle, Henry ]. Stahl and Peter
McFarlane.

The son and daughter of Mrs.
Mary Ann Retallack drove from
the ranch Saturday evening to
Rollinsville to attend the dance.
They put their horse and buggy
in a shed and when they came
after the outfit it was gone and
no trace has been had of it since.
They followed the tracks of the
buggy to Gambcl gulch, when the
snow obliterated tracks and it is
presumed that the person who
stole the horse and buggy drove
it to Denver via Guy hill. The
officers of the surrounding coun-
ties have been notified of the
theft and are on the lookout for
the horse and buggy.

GOVERNOR SH0UP APPEALS
TO YOU TO BUY BONDS

The Victory Liberty Loan is for
all of us, instead of any select
few. The same principles must
necessarily apply in the flotation
of this loan as in previous loans.
The banks are no more in a posi-
tion to absorb this issue than
they were any of the others. We
have Some people saying this
time, the same as they said be-
fore, Let the rich men and the
banks buy the bonds"
1t is significant to remember
that in the Fourth Liberty Loan
considerably over IS per cent was
absorbed by the banks and big
business concerns, yet, nearly 80
per cent of all subscriptions were
of $4,000 or less. This simply
means that our citizens in all
walks of life responded to the
call of their country, which made
possible the biggest loan we have

Cut Big Ore Shoot

The McCampbell Leasing Co..

Eureka Mine is In a :
Big Body of Ore

The Eureka mine is in better
ore than it has been for several
years. In driving the 700 level
west the Grabmair shoot which
yielded handsomely in the levels
above has been encountered. The
ore body is fully three feet wide.
with about 18 inches of smelling
that assays 1.20 ozs. gold and
$3.50 ozs. silver to the ton. In
the bottom of the drift the shoot
shows clean across the drift, in
dicating that by sinking the shaft
another lift or two the ore re-
serves will be very extensive.
Stopping has been started on the
shoot and a good tonnage of ore
will be supplied the mill, after
the smelling ore is sorted out.
On the east side of the shaft
in the 700 the ore body is unusu-
ally good, but will get better as
the drift is extended to an. ore
shoot that should be struck with
in a short time.
The mill is now being run
steadily and is doing splendid
work, having been repaired and
placed in first-class condition by
McFarlane & Co. A carload of
concentrates will be shipped from
the mill this week. The cleanup
of the plates was very good.
