TITO OREGON DAILY JOURNAL. PORTLAND. FRIDAY EVENING. ' MAY 15. 1CCS. 13 mm WMM I , i" f . ' j ' r " ... . ' . I t . - ' M - ' ' : AT 6 P. M. : . ' ' - The Boolts W01 Positively Close ai That loft aid Tiger B A Nevada Man's Spirited Indorsement of Hornsilver's Most Promising Gold Producer TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN: ' These days when the papers seem to be full of investment propositions in the way of mining, it Is well for the public to thoroughly , : investigate the property in which they contemplate taking stock. . . . ; ' :'', I wish to say for the Tiger Butte Gold Mining Company, of Nevada, that I have been intimately and actively connected with its affairs since the day of its, inception. The property is practically owned by half a dozen business men-of Goldfield. . Th records of the ' company show that over ninety-five per cent of the money derived from the sale of stock has gone jnto actual development of the, property; J the balance has been used in advertising, stationery and stamps. No officer of the company has ever drawn a five-cent piece for any service, y , he ever rendered. The time the properties were purchased, besides the cash consideration, blocks of stock were given. - Today every share b v - of the promotion stock of this company is in pool in a. safe deposit vault of a bank in Goldfield, and -it has been there since the organ- , " ization of the company three years ago. The understanding was when it was put in there that it would not be withdrawn until the mine was either on a dividend paying basis or has proved tp be absolutely worthless. In the latter case the holders of this stock arethe largest ; , losers but their unbounded faith in the property makes them take this method of protecting the stockholders, v y , ( It is a common thing for a company, to . be organized and advertise the sale of treasury stock, and when it comes to be delivered to the purchaser promotion stock is substituted," with the xesult that the money goes into the promoter's pocket instead of intothe ground. I recommend the purchase of Tiger Butte stock on its merits. I believe it will .be .worth much more money in a very short while. V j . BERT D.. WHITE, . - & Now of Portland, but formerly of Goldfield, Nevada, . . nnflte Wil le 12 Ce, 'Again' The Shares of Tiger Butte Are Now 5 Cents Each We have only a remnant of 25,000 to go at this price. There has been some lively buying the past few days. People have been taking this stock as if it were hot biscuits buttered and honeyed "to suit the taste." "AND THERE NEVER HAS BEEN ANOTHER MINING PROPOSITION ADVERTISED IN THE OREGON DAILY JOURNAL THAT, AS AN INVESTMENT. HAS EQUALED THIS ONE. These shares are worth every farthing of 25c each, but we are selling for 5c because we MUST have a hoist to get the ore out of the 'mine, andpwe cannot get it without the money. ' :THIS IS THE REASON WE SELL THESE SHARES AT 5c EACH, BUT THE SALE WILL END MONDAY, MAY 18, AT 6. P. M. - -Those who would double their money a thousand times ought not to delay another day in placing. their orders. We cannot promise that v can fill them even late on Monday. , m I " WE MEAN THIS, TOO. WALL STREET PEOPLE BUY v INTO HORNSILVER SECTION Johnny Hobbs Secures a Part of the Frisbee Lease, Which Has' Big Ore. MEMBER OP GATES PARTY .

An !ntrt In th Frlabe leaa on the Hornailvar Klna ground, at Horn allYer, waa purchased yesterday by John H. Hobbs. Tha conaideratlon could not b learned, but tha fact that ha haa in veated any money waa tha cauaa of gen aral comment it la known that any propoaltion he roaa into muat look pretty good to him lie la no email fellow, and when naked about thie investment, I indicated from hie remarks that it waa only a flyer on his own account People who re turned from the camp yesterday aay that the find made on the Frtahe hlnnk of jrround la Immense. There te a little history connected with Hobba and Frlabee that Is intereat inf. The latter shipped the first car load of or from the Cripple Creek dis trict and tt oame from the Gold King, In Poverty gulch. The ore went at the rate of about $100 a ton. and the news of a shipment of that kind spread all over the state. Scores of mining In vestors flocked to the southwest alopo of Pike's Peak, where the camp of Cripple Creek is located, and many of them approached the lucky owner of the mine. - One of them ot It, and the con sideration waa 136,000. , , - 1 Frlabee felt good, a a he waa able to square all his Indebtedness and buy a home at Colorado Springs. He even went to the extent of investing la ev dlamond and a fur coat -' - Within a few months the Gold King was sold for $260,000, and In leas than Of $760,000, and It could not be bought today at that figure, after being worked for IS years. i - . Then Frisbee -wandered all over the United States and Old- Mexico in an ef fort to And .another mine. Nearly four years, ago he came to Ooldfleld, and after looking around a little was In duced to go to Lids, and until the Horn ;'.lT,r "citement broke out be has been diligently at work in an effort to open up a mine. That little knoll known as Lime Point may give him another King. John Hobba, whom everybody - calls "Johnny" for short and who haa a smile ss willing and broad as any seen on the faces of Benny Rosenthal or Joe Hutchinson, started into the' mining business some 12 years ago, and he has made it a success. His addrasa at the present time Is No. 1 Wall street: at least, there la where bla business office Is, but his home Is where he hangs up his hat. He came with the antes party. V. Z. Reed, and also Thomas Fltsgerald. mixed up in the crowd. They were not here for their health. Big propoaitlons and proven ones are 'what they were looking for, and whether they have found anything to suit them will not be known until the deeds are recorded. That "flyer" of Mr. Hobbs at Horn silver may lead up to the big deal. f DIRECTORS Harry J. McNamara, M, A. Mahler, J. P. Cosgrove and Bert D. White.

Charlotte Nordean found life with John Nordean unconrenlal. His rase was provoked because she asked him for money. Ho offered to give her an order on one Michael Laffew, but she happened to know that Laffaw did not owe him, and told him so. Then came the disastrous pounding on the table. Two weeks after they were married, said Mrs. Nor dean, her husband came home unsteady with drink and called her names. Fre quently he raised a rumpus when under the influence of liquor, ao she-was afraid to stay under the same roof. They were married April 6, 1607. . Bad jTames and Desertion.

County Clerk Fields this morning reached a decision to use a double set of ballot boxes In Falrvlew and Rock wood precincts at the coming election, this being the only way to overcome the difficulty tn. the oonfliot of preolnot and Port of Portland lines. These precincts ara partly within the Port of Portland boundaries, but mostly outside, and It would be Illegal to allow those living outside to vote on the Port of Portland appropriation measure that Is to be on the ballot By the method adopted each voted In the two precincts named will be asked where he lives when he comes to vote. If he Is Inside the port boundaries, he will be given a ballot containing the port proposition, but It outside this will be omitted from the ballot that Is given him.

Bell, one of the Re publican nominees. Otherwise- Bell and Fred L. Olson, the two Republicans,, will precede him under, the' party desig nation.
