A New Lease on the World-Famed Florence Gold Mine Closed Yesterday; and I(s P
, An Absolutely New Deal in Establishing a Gold Mine Enterprise Sale Will Close Next Saturday, May 9, at Noon
. , Here is an absolutely "new deal in gold mine "promotion. It has been said, and honestly believed, for
several months,' that no new lease could -be had on the Florence mine of Goldfield, Nevada. It has been con
' tended that a mine so unspeakably rich as is the Florence could not longer lease its ground. There are probably
25 leases on that property now, and each a monumentally rich producer. The Little Florence lease expired last
Sunday at midnight and could not be renewed. It had been mining a million dollars a month. The Rogers Syn
dicate lease expires July 11 at midnight, and already a renewal has been refused. This mine has been producing
--more gold than any mine before it on the face of the earth ever has produced. Within the last month it sacked
105 100-pound sacks of ore that netted the leasers $1,000 to, the sack lOS.OOO-and the gold was taken out In
eight hours. It has been .running-in $50,000-to-the-ton ore, nd some actually milled $100,000 to the ton car
loads of it The Florence Annex lease has been paying nearly 5,000 per cent on all moneys invested in its
. shares. The Daisy Florence lease is enriching everybody that is connected with it. The PollardrFlorence lease
is pouring gold into the coffers of its people. The Aurelia-Florence lease is one of Goldfield's great properties.
The Emma Fraction Florence lease is a big producer. The Goldfield Chedd Florence lease is up to its chin in
gold. The Portland-Florence lease, owned by a Portland company, is just breaking into that immense body
of ore that" has made the Little Florence the wonder of the globe, and will most likely pay its Portland stock
holders monster profits in the coming months.
I .'.-'.': OUR NEW LEASE IS SMACK IN THE CENTER OF" THIS NEST..
'It is crowded in between the Little Florence on the south, Pollard-Florence and Aurelia Florence on the
east, Florence Annex on the west, Chedd lease and Portland Florence on the north, all adjoining our property.
It is as squarely in the center of this world-amazing group of the richest gold mines that ever was opened by
the hand of man, as the sun at noonday in the month of June is squarely in the center of the skies above. To
the north there is gold, to the south there is gold, to the east there is gold, and to the west there is gold
touching us on all sides -and you cannot find a man in this town, who ever has been in "Goldfield, who will
not tell you that he would wager his precious life against a small sum of the shining mineral, that there are
inilUohsiD:.gold'beneath::he'Stirface''Of that grotinA,-"
.WE WIRED $1,000 TO GOLDFIELD YESTERDAY TO BIND THE BARGAIN FOR
THIS LEASE, AND MUST HAVE $4,000 MORE THERE ON MAY 10.
- c There are four men in Portland who offer to take this stock at 3 cents per share. We can have their
money in 10 minutes. We would rather not accept it. We would rather sell to the general public at the same
price. It has been widely advertised that stock companies have been in the habit of selling their promotion
stock to their friends at a low price, and their treasury shares to the public at large advances. We freely con-
fess that the charge has been too often based on facts. This time we will let the public in on the promotion
stock. The property has been capitalized at $1,000,000, divided into 1,000,000 shares of non-assessable stock,
00,000 of which shall be treasury and 500,000 promotion stock. To pay expenses incorporation, rent and ad
vertising tolls and to enable, us to wire $4,000 to the owners of the parent Florence before the. close of the
. banks on Saturday, May 9, we will sell 150,000 shares of this promotion stock at 3 cents per share. Our con
" tract calls for the money on Saturday, May 9, the 10th being Sunday, and it will be there on time, no matter
what number of shares we may sell by this public method-. A business man stands ready" to take, every
share we have left on rumd) but, with all due regard to the gentleman, we believe we shall not have one for
him to buy. " N ' ' v ,
FOR ONCE, AT LEAST, WE WANT THE fcUBLIC TOHAVE AN OPPORTUNITY TO
GET IN ON THE GROUND FLOOR.
- It never has been done in Oregon, and, we think,- once we have broken the ice, the method will prevail
forever. As stated, our promotion stock will gd at 3 cents per share, 'until 150,000 shares have been sold,
and will then be taken from the market and the treasury stock will be held at 10 cents per share, until results :
justify another rise. Tlfis ought to be within 60 or 90 days. There is little guess about this. We know
almost to a dot what we have and how deep we mut go to get it. Ask any of our local Goldfielders about
that. They know that we will cut the ledge at 250 feet. That fact is, already established,. It is a foregone
conclusion, and by that time we will be able to hoist the ore to the surface and pay dividends as large as any
property in that great jcamp. .
' HOW DID W SECURE THIS LEASE?
We have not a thfrig to secrete from the public. In Goldfield we have desk room with Harry C. Davis,
agent for Tom Lockhart, principal owner of the Florence. We became warm,, personal friends, and, though .
often friendship and business do not mix they did this time. Mr. Davis is a most estimable, kindhearted
gentleman, and rarely is there one more companionable than he. Our associations ; ripened into more than
ordinary friendship, and through them, though it had been decided never to lease another inch of Florence
territory, Mr. Davis stretched a good many joints and consented to let us have a dip into that mine's hidden
treasury. "If you have a lease at all you want a good "one," was his final conclusion, "and; you shall have that ' .'
spof there," as he pointed to the VERY CREAM of all the Florence 65 acres, because it hasjeaning against
it every one of the giants of the tract It was a matter of friendship from first to last from beginning to.
end and we now have an ambition to show the people of this coast there is more to lift than mere mercenary
motives than pure selfishness-r-so we invite the co-operation of all those who really need the fruits of the gold
mine, and desire to get out of the rut of evcry-day plodding to make both ends meet.
ON SATURDAY NOON OF NEXT WEEK THE DOOR WILL CLOSE ON THIS OP- '
PORTUNITY, AND NEVER WILL SWING ON ITS HINGES AGAIN. .
We know there is not much time to investigate or give this matter thought, but we cannot help that.
We had this one chance to get this lease, and were glad to get it on the terms we have. There is now more
than $15,000,000 in sight in the Florence mine above the 400-foot level, and our lease is hedged in on every
side by just such ore as is a part of this.
OUR HEADQUARTERS.
This bargain has come upon us in such a rush, its conclusion being by telegraph, that we have not had
time to "fix up," or do much else. Therefore we are quartered with the Butte Boys Company, 517 Lumber
Exchange building, Second and Stark. Interested ones may there see all telegraphic correspondence in con
nection with the deal, and be convinced that everything has been done open and above board, and nothing
concealed from any one. v r
