tCOntlnued from rage One)
At a point about Is feet from the
breast of the east drift. from the
bottom of the old shaft, there is a
strong cross fracture.
At this point the ore shows con-
siderable width and is of good
grade. 1t is very apparent that this
is a most favorable point to de-
velop and would suggest sinking a
winze. If the development justifies,
it would not be an expensive under
taxing to raise from this point to
the surface, thus making a good
working shaft for deeper develop
ment. besides making excellent Ven
tillation which will be of value as
your development increases.
At a point some so feet westerly
from shaft No. 2 there is an in
trusion of diorite, running at an
angle to the producing vein.
1t would be good mining to
prospect this diorite dixie at the
point where the vein comes in con-
tact with the diorite.
From the limited time on your
property, it is my impression that
your largest bodies of ore will be
found near the old shaft (shaft No.
y and would strongly advise devel-
/ opment where the cross-fracturing
has occurred. Should you persist
until you find the point where your
| tein makes contact with the diorite
dixie on its pitch, you viii probably
find an extensive deposit of good
ore.
AS soon as development justifies.
| would suggest the erection of a
milling plant at your workings,
pumping the water from Sand
springs. rather than erecting the
plant at the springs. as the main
tenance of the pumping plant will
be considerably less than the ex-
pense of hauling the ore, besides
the necessity for maintaining two
camps.
Situated as your property is. at
an altitude or S40Q feet, where you
will avoid the extreme heat of the
valley, mining can be carried on
every day of the year. and consider
ing the exceptional values already
exposed, and the extent (46O feet),

ASK F0RMtD|A10R
TWO FEDERAL COMMISSIONERS
TO BE SENT INTO
DISTRICT

J. E. Hayes of the strikers COM
mittee representing the workers in
the Tonopah and Divide districts,
has requested of the department of
labor that federal mediators be sent
to aid in adjusting the differences
between the operators and striking
employees. AS a result two labor
commissioners have been ordered to
Tonopah.
Hayes sent the following telegram
to Senator'S Pittman and Henderson:
Il have wired Secretary of Labor
Wilson for an immediate investiga-
ton by his representatives of living
costs here. Such action will help
settle present serious labor condi-
tions. Please see him immedi-
ately."

association would be washing gravel
now, but a few days g the gaso-
line engine used in hosting FLEW
all to pieces to quote the manager,
the fly wheel going in one direction
and the remainder in another. For
tunately none of the products of the
mechanical suicide entered the shaft
or there would have been casualties.
The Goldfield-Tule Canyon COM
pany will start washing material
that produces a long string of gold
when PANIED. The crosscut has
been driven practically across the
canyon, 21 feet daily having been
made for the last three days, and
drifting on bed rock will soon be
started north in the center of the
canyon. The crosscut, which is in
bed rock, will be used as a reser-
voir for the heavy flow of water and
eventually an inclined shaft will be
sunk to connect with the north drift
on bed rock.
A. l.. B~orcherding, manager for
the placer association, sent another
hoist to the canyon yesterday and
within a few days he will be work
ing from the bottom of the shaft.
Within a few days both organiza-
tions will be working ON bed rock,
where progress in the gravel is
rapid, and lay dirt" will be going
through the sluice boxes.
The association is we'll financed.
The Goldfield-Tule Canyon has is
sued only a comparatively small
amount of stock, which leaves it in
excellent financial condition. and if
it can be put on a paying basis
within a short time the small stock
issue will make the shares valu-
able.

FIRES SERIOUS
IN MONTANA AND IDAHO

MISSOULA, Mont. Aug. 20
Forestry officials announced today
that never in the history of the west
has the general fire situation in
Montana and northern Idaho been
as serious as it is today. New fires
are breaking out and old fires are
getting beyond control. 1t is re-
ported that incendiaries have set
fires in isolated spots and in sew
eral instances severed connections
between the fire fighting crews and
the outside world with serious re-
suits.

Ia written confirmation from the
buyer and seller, which sets forth
that the buyer will deliver his
money and the seller deliver his
stock to our clearing house by 10
o'clock the following morning. BY
III O'Clock of the same morning
proper record will have been made
and then the stock will be delivered
Ito the buyer and the money to the
seller. Our commission on the
transaction will be 1 per cent of the
money involved collected from each
of the seller and buyer.
Our clearing bouse will be con-
Quoted under the same rules and
regulations as those o in force on
the leading exchanges of the cCun-
try. We have been fortunate in Sc
curing the services of Mr.. Ckas c.
Akin who was for a number of years
caller on the Los Angeles Stock Ex-
change and also cashier of the Los
Angeles Stock Exchange Clearing
House. Mr.. Akin will be secretary
of our exchange and have charge OF
our clearing house and bookkeeping
department.
1T ia our purpose to help in every
way possible the upbuilding of Gold
field, Tonopah and Divide, as well
as the various other districts in this
part of Nevada, and shall at all
times be willing to enter into any
movement for the creating of a bet
ter knowledge of the wonderful
mineral of Nye and Es-
meralda counties among the eastern
Investing public. We contend that
the largest percentage of develop
ment capital should come from east
of the Mississippi river and believe
that the efforts of Goldfield and
Tonopah should be spent in attract
ing new capital from that territory.
"Our exchange will be at the serv-
ices of owners of properties in other
mining districts where the stocks
are not listed in San Francisco.
There will be no fee for listing new
stocks, but we must be assured by
the hackers of the companies that
they will stand behind their stocks
and make an active market for
them, and at any time. in our esti-
nation, they fail to do this, we
will reserve the right to Withdraw
their name from our board. We
shall at all times discourage future
or short trading. 1t is our prime
purpose to help build up the various
mining districts of Nevada, and no
one can convince me that selling
stocks short or for future delivery,
which the seller never owned, and
receiving money for purchases that
are not actually made through the
transfer of any stock, is for the
benefit of any mining camp. or
course it is a legitimate transaction
among clears" and professional
traders as long as a broker does
not bucket the order, but l fail
to see where any assistance is rem

property through this manner iof
trading"

with the inception of the To
nopah Divide Stock Exchange, which
will arrange a medium of trading in
the popular stocks of Goldfield. To-
nopah, Divide and other active dis
tricts of Nevada, through the estab-
fishing of a public CALL it is
very gratifying to note the import
ant developments now being car
ried on in the Goldfield district"
said H. B. Chessher, director and
of the exchange, yester-
day.
This historical and wonderfully
rich district is known the world
over, and probably no mining camp
will ever duplicate its history. As
the impending silver boom gradu-
ally settles within the confines of
the state of Nevada, Goldfield will
become one of the main points of
attraction in the production of that
other precious metal-gold. Not
for years has the outlook been so
favorable for a revival of much in
terest in the various mineral estates
of Esmeralda county which have re-
Gently been idle. Eastern capital
must and surely will be attracted by
the recent strikes made in several
properties, and those who have been
for years so faithful and persistent
in their support toward Goldfield
will not have cause to regret their
actions.
Never before has an opening for
a public CALI been timed so nicely
and so seemingly a dire necessity as
found in Tonopah today. The fact
that Tonopah has to a large extent
been made the gateway for the Dr.
vide district causes most of the Di-
vide trading to be carried on there.
However, with the extension of
the district in a southerly direction
and with the opening of the Klon-
dyke district, which most assuredly
must come in time, many new COM
ers will make Goldfield their head
quarters if for no other reason than
the fact that Tonopah will be
crowded to such an extent that fur
than ooornop ~, odofiopc conpof hQ
made. Goldfield with her wonder
full number of homes, store build
ings and offices is a great asset to
the impending boom which most
certainly will be conferred for a
while anyway upOn the mineral re-
sources of Esmeralda and Nye oun-
ties.
1.-The satisfaction generally shown
when a detailed explanation con-
corning our methods of operating is
given fully c%onvinces anyone that
our efforts will accomplish excellent
results for the investing element"
explained Mr.. Chessher yesterday.

BUY BACON BY MAIL

Leavenworth people now have an
opportunity to buy bacon by mail.
Instructions on how to order can be
secured from Postmaster Hamilton.
The list includes bacon, corned beef,
beans, cornmeal, flavoring extracts,
graham, rice and oatmeal flour, hon.
my, macaroni, canned milk, rolled oats
raisins, sausage, soups of all kinds and
spice in many varieties. The buyer
must prepay the parcel post charges
from San Francisco where the supplies
are stored.
Some of the goods must be bought
by the case, but if orders enough are
received by the postmaster each day
to make up case, the postmaster may
order an entire case and distribute it
among the purchasers.
A case of bacon consists of six ~
pound cans. The price of case is
$24.90 at San Francisco, and the post
age is $6.14 more, making the total
cost to the consumer $3104 delivered
here OF about 46 cents per pound. One
can of bacon may be ordered which
would cost $4.15 at Frisco plus $1.04
postage or 1919 for IL pounds of ba-
con.

DEMOCRATS CHARGE WILSON
HAS WRECKED HIS PARTY

That President Wilson wrecked the
Democratic party after it had lifted
him from obscurity is the charge made
in a letter forwarded to the chairman
of the Democratic national committee
and signed by Francis j. Finneran,
president of the Democratic Club, of
Massachusetts, and by two state SEN
ators and fifteen Massachusetts rep
resentatives, all democrats, accord
ing to a special dispatch to to the
New York Times. The letter de-
mands that President Wilson be re-
pudiated by the Democratic national
committee and calls attention to four
teen points in which it is stated Pres
ident Wilson has held his party up to
ridicule.
"Point one" attacks the appoint
ment of incompetent men" naming
Baker, Burleson and Garfield.
"Point two" charges him with leav-
ing the country to "cafnouflage thru
Europe"
"Point three"says he is trying to
force America to adopt an English
league of Nations"
"Point four" reminds him of his
"idle promises" about free nations at
Mount Vernon.
"Point five" attacks him for pro
noting "internationalism."
"Point six" condemns his sending
Yankees into Russia, a country with
which we were not at war.
"Point seven" scores his Mexican
policy and the federation of the muir
der of three hundred Americans"
"Point eight" says he refused the
request of congress to take up Ire
lands case at the peace table.
"Point nine" charges him with par
tisanship for the south.
"Point ten" attacks his signing Of
the war time prohibition act after
the armstice.
"Point eleven" attacks his policy OF
Panama free tolls.
"Point thirteen" accuses him of dis
regarding the right of southern neg
roes to vote.
"Point fourteen" charges him will
helping boost prices in America by
shipping vast amounts of food to
Europe.

COFFEE PRICES ARE SOARING
HIGHER

And now it is coffee that is going to
take still another leap in price. Re
ports are that this commodity is likely
to advance in price anytime now. 1t
is almost impossible to get this bev-
erage and it is not so much ques-
ton of the prices, but of getting the
goods. Some of the shortage in this
market is due to the frost damage
in Brazil last year when the worst
frost in the last quarter century was
experienced. At anyrate that is the
story we are asked to believe. The
European demand, with the war over
also had much to do with the present
shortage as much coffee has been
shipped overseas. Practically all of
their surplus stock has been used and
there is a great danger of big cof-
fee famine there this year. Another
thing which is holding up the price of
coffee is that it is being held in Bra
I'll, the holders waiting till the demand
becomes so great that they can get the
enormous profits that they are after.
