reka after me has gone through the
Eureka roesus mines. for they are
a great store house of riches upon
which she may draw for generations
to come.
"The push, the drive and the hustle
of the Eureka-Croesus organization
not only spells success for the COM

ployes are on the go and every move
they make shows results. They know
their objective and they permit no
obstacles to impede their progress to-
ward it. Their spirit and confidence
are splendid, their energy untirinR
and their determination inf1exible.
"Such qualities. backed by the
dauntless courage and the money
that was necessary to make Eureka
Croesus what it is to-day, will newt
ably build a Eureka greater than ex-
listed in old bonanza days. Major
Catlin and Eugene Davis are making
history hereabouts and building mon
uments to themselves"

an interview with a representative of

during the last three years and had
seen reports as to the progress of the
development work and many smelter
returns showing the high value of
the ore shipped, but after going
through miles of underground work.

more shafts and tunnels, all showing

ideas of the property had about the

have the greatest quantity of high
grade milling ore of its kind of any
mining company in this country and
the visible supply is daily increasing.
So great is the quantity of ore that

cauti ously, but with absolute certain

Construction will begin as soon as
the necessary details can be
arranged.
