Most Promising Doing It Would be Shipping Ore that Would Pay Moire than 1000 Per Cent on Every Dollar Invested in It- and that's True Read the-following from the Goldfield Tribune of May 8, to be 'had at the Oregon News com pany's,.Sixth and. Alder, or the news, wagon, Sixth and Washington, and you will understand in a small way the stupendous interest the people of Nxada are manifesting in Hornsilverh REFERRING AGAIN TO THE HORN SILVER DISTRICT, THE GOLDFIELD .:-','.,' TRIBUNE SAYS: "Capt.' J. F, Bradley, ex-sheriff, and als the only Re publican in the state assembly from Esmeralda" county, has struck, it rich on the ,fted Top claim owned by the Great Western Gold Mining company at Hornsilver. He secured a lease on a block of the ground in a little gulch to the west of the main find some 800 feet, a Jew weeks ago. . There were no surface croppings that look good to the average seeker : after a good thing, : Ore was in evidence on the trend of - the dyke east and, west of him, and he surmised that a little depression in the earth would not cause that true fissure to ; change its course, and apparently wisely concluded that right it those depressions very high-grade ore would be found. ' His judgment was confirmed by assays made yesterday, : . ,f; - The samples went all the, way from a hew hundred 'ounces in silver to better than 4,000 ounces, with half an ounce of gold thrown in. It appears, to be the biggest' :v find yet made in the Lime Point section of Gold Mountain, and as a result, that new little town of Hornsilver is grow ing so rapidly that nothing like "it has evef been seen in this section of the country. ' ' ; - ;"Orie month ago today the first tent was pitched on the ground, and by. actual count there were 210 frame and tent houses there yesterday. The news, of a real mining camp has spread far and wide, and roads leading into the district are kept dusty, by automobiles, stages and wagons loaded with all kinds of travelers and supplies from Goldfield. . "These in-going' vehicles are met .by others that are heavily laden, but moving more slowly', as the wagons are loaded with ore. , . , "The Bradley shaft is down only eighteen feet, and it is now being timbered. The wash was, deep, for that country and when the 4x7 shaft is timbered up, the work of sinking will - be continued." ----- t . - - That gold is. where you find it is as true today as it was when King Solomon, the wise, gave "utterance to the statement, several centuries ago. About two miles easterly of the Great Western mine, at Hornsilver, lies a gold belt bearing all the earmarks of famous gold producers. The original point upon the face of nature, known as Lime Point, was so-called from a peculiar projection extend ing from the hills toward the low-lying desert, and containing a belt of white formation containing limestone. Since the rich strikes have been made in the vicinity of Lime Point, the possibly more appropriate name, of Hornsilver, has been given , to the new town and district. In the same easterly and westerly trend of the mineral ized zone, and about one and one-half miles easterly of the Great Western shaft, the formation changes to a consider able extent, and the conditions are largely reversed. The gold" belt referred to is a slate and lime contact, with well defined veins, showing upon the surface in many places 100 feet in width, and panning free gold all the way. across. - v Dr. Frances E, Williams, J. Prescott Dyos and P. L. Duffy have procured a lease upon block 4 of the Sunset claim of the Lime Point Gold Mining and Milling com pany's; estate, comprising a block 300x600 feet, and have in- . corporated the Frances Lime Point Mining company, for the purpose of developing the lease. Upon this block of ground is an 80-foot shaft showing three feet of ore at the ; bottom, a general sample of the entire width carrying assay values of upwards of $30 a ton. Upon the same block, in a 40-foot shaft, the stringers return assay .values from $35 to $105 per ton. The ore is strictly free milling, and by 1 screening the ore the company expects to sack shipping - grade within 30 days after mining operations are under way. . The company now has all arrangements' made for the installing upon the property of a first class hoisting plant,; which will be in charge. of Superintendent P. L. Duffy, who is well known as one among the most proficient and econom ical mine operators of the Goldfield district, having for the past two years handled the Atlanta Boom Mining and Leas ing company's operations on the Atlanta. The company also owns a group of claims near Horn silver. The officers of the company are W. B. Thomas, Jr., president; Dr. Frances E. Williams, vice-president; J. Pres cott Dyos, secretary and treasurer, and P. L. Duffy, superhv tendent and mine manager. EOR FOUR LONG YEARS WE HAVE BEEN DEVELOPING TIGER BUTTE. .J '. -We .worked in theJtnine so long as we, had a dollar and then in some other mine to get a fresh start. Now we have the ore and only lack capital to buy the gallows, or hoist, to bring the ore to the surface, and we wilVbe shipping just as much as any of them. WE NEED ONLY A LITTLE MONEY, AND ARE SELLING 25,000 SHARES OF STOCK AT 5 CENTS THE SHARE THAT WE MAY SPEEDILY RAISE THE REQUIRED FUND v The young men who found, developed and own the mine today, when he company was incor porated, took stock for every dollar due them, and these shares are on deposit in a Goldfield safe deposit vault, and never will be disturbed ufftijl the, mine becomes a shipper of high grade ore. This solemn compact was entered into when it was discovered that Tiger Butte really was a valu able mjning property, and will ever be adhered to. This exemplifies the value attached to the proposition by those best acquainted with its worth. ALL NEVADA NEWSPAPERS ARE BUBBLING OVER WITH HORNSILtVER. ' The camp is found on nearly every page. Its publicity is greater far than Goldfield's ever was, and WITHIN A YEAR, IT IS FIRMLY BELIEVED, IT WILL BE THE BIGGEST MINING CAMP IN THAT GREAT STATE. ' . And now is the time to secure a holding there. There never will be such a chance again. Our officers in Goldfield declare that we must sell these 25,000 shares at ONCE, and to force that issue the price is cut from 12 cents to 5 cents each. THIS SALE IS A MONUMENTAL SNAP FOR SOME ONE. IT IS ABSOLUTELY A CUT RATE PRICE IN GILT-EDGED MININtr SHARES. IT IS HANDING OVER TO SOME ONE, OR SOME PEOPLE, THE NUCLEUS OF A FORTUNE FOR AN INFINITESI. MAL SUM OF MONEY. But we MUST have that hoist, or our mine is not worth the blast of a peddler's horn. And we are going to have it. People are buying these shares at 5 cents, and that right quickly You would better call for your share at once. DIRECTORS Harry J. McNamara M. A. Mahler J, P.

CHAMBERLAIN AT C0ND0X CLINCHES POPULAR SUIT0BT By Don r. Steffa. Condon, Or.. May IS. Gilliam coun ty's new courthouse was not half large enough last, night to accommodate the large crowd that listened to the ad dress Of Governor Chamberlain here. Long before the . governor .-, was intro duced the courtroom was crowded and the aisles and corridors in the halls filled to overflowing,. Scores of peo ple were turned away at the doors. Oovernor Chamberlain found a re sponstve audience in bis declaration that Statement mo. i ana me people s de termination that the state legislature shall obey the popular will Is the one greatest issue nerore tne voters in rne present-campaign. The people of Ore gon must aeriue mis nine, n ueciarou, whether they would elect men to the legislature who would do as the pub lic wished or men who would go to the legislature, after receiving .the people's vote, and, following the precept of Van derbllt, tell the public to be damned. Bow Oaks Aided Chamberlain. "Statement No. 1. said Governor Chamberlain, "embodies freedom from the reign of bribery and corruption which has disgraced Oregon in its sen atorial elections and legislative matters for 88 years. It will give back to the people the powers delegated to the leg islature, which legislators have shame fully' misused. The very fact that Its certain adoption in this state is a sig nal for the overthrow of tho corrupt ring which has heretofore ruled poli tics and sold the people in its legis lative debaucheries, -! -also- the signal for ths opposition sgalrsit me and my advocacy, of state ruled first, last and always by the people. "I am not alone in the vigorous stand I have taken In this matter or casting out tbe corrupt, machine-ridden legislature and "again placing the peo ple in control. Oregon has nsver been more determined that it man come into possession of its own than at the pres ent time. Especially is this true throughout the eastern part of the state, thanks to my opponent Mr. Cake. This deep seated conviction is largely due to his earnest efforts before the primary election.

"Throughout this entire district he held up statement ino. i as tne oniy and sure remedy for legislative cor ruption and bribery suoh as has been characteristic of this state.

Miss Evelyn Groesbeck Mitchell will not submit tamely to beinir called a "feminine paerophora." She has sued Dr. Harri son u. Dyer, assistant curator or tne National museum for 136,000 because he called her that. She says, furthermore, that the phrase was inspired by Dr. Dyer's envy of her success in scientific lines. t , Miss Mitchell recently wrote a book on mosquito life as a tribute to the memory of Dr. J. M. Dupree, under whom she had worked and whose notes she had acquired. Dr. Dyer la alleged to have written an article In the Canadian Entomologist in which he says of the autnor: , "I regret to notice a lamentable lack nf credit to Dr. Duoree. Following the example set by the object of her study. Miss Mitchell has played the part of a feminine paerophorn among the non scientific aedlds of Washington."

Queen Marguerite 4a a prisoner in her own palace because the members " of her bodyguard, six bi cyclists, are seriously ill with malaria. Until another group of bicyclist body guards can be trained for 'the royal service, her majesty will not venture out of doors. This is ' according to a promise nhe made .to her husband, the late Kins Um- berto, who was assassinated because he despised guards and policemen for his own protection. In his dying - hour Queen Marguerite promised him to be more careful than he had been, and al ways surround herself in public with trusted men, alert and swift. - Queen Marguerite's bodyguard was composed of athletic, young men, well versed in the duties of the secret po lice and holding records as bicyclists.: These six bicyclists surround the queen s carriage or auto in the follow ing manner: two aneaa, one on each side and two In the rear.
