BLUE LEDGE SHOW
BY W. W. WATSON
Even the Uluo Lodge people - are
just beginning to realize what they
actually possess in the way of an Im
mensely rich mining property. Re
cent operations, on a small scale, have
uncovered tremendous bodies of ore
111 iirnctlcnlly all of tho tunnels and
drifts. All of the ore that is being
trammed to tho dump at this time is
worth inoro than $100 a ton in cop
per and gold. Considering the quan
tlty and value of the discovery, It Is
tho most gigantic find of that char-
actor over made on the continent.
There uro now 350 tons of the now
ore on the dump, it is being extract
ed at tho nite of 50 tons $5000
worth each day. Two eight-hour
shifts are being worked. They fill
Hid tram to capacity every hour of
the two shifts. That output, If con
tluuod for a year uninterruptedly
would nggregato $1,825,000 worth of
ore nearly throe times tlio price
asked by tho present owners of tho
property.
Kvery Tunnel unil Drift a Surprise
The minors In the Blue Ledge tun
nels are only beginning lo reach tlio
vast bodies of rich ore that lies con
cealed under the crest of the Slskl
yous. In drift No. 10, in tunnel 1,
the fuco of tho ledge of high-grade
ore lias Increased to nine feet In
width and Is looking better every
Inch of the way. There Is no way to
determine the extent of the ledges,
otherwlso, except as they are brokon
down. That the ore assays better
than 25 per cent Is known. It is
known oIbo that It runs about $30
per ton In gold. In raiso 10 of tho
same tunnol, whoro the rich ore was
originally found, tho eight-foot face
Is being maintained und tho grade ap
pears to Increase as depth Is reach
ed. All tho drifts, except one, Is Im
proving in output us tho work pro
gresses. The one exception is tho
west drift lu tunnol No. 1, which
yields 42 per cent zlno. The vein is
six foot wide, it is not bolng worked.
Zinc is worth nmoiit 10 centB a pound
Copper is worth 37 conts.
rmiNiiiilly t'Im Output
Tho oro bodies nro so largo and
pure that llttlo or no wusto is bolng
handled. Ono can find scarcely a hat
ful of unproductive niatorlul in u ton
of tho oro.
Exposures from day to day are
little less than sensational, What
Judge Mai'tch said about that mine,
aftor only n casual Inspection, is now
being ncttinlly doiiioiistrntod to bi
true.
And tho Tlluo Lodgo mine is only
a small portion of that vast mountain
of rich oro. All of tho claims In Hurt
vicinity, sufficiently worked to expose
geological nnd mluoraloglcal data at
soino depth, passed through tho same
introductory conditions as thoso
through which tho niuo Lodge passed
at their stages of devolpnient. Tho

exclusively in the control of the coun
eil of ministers until the convocation
of the constitutional assembly. The
iluiiui eommitte having fulfilled its
task us Hie temporary governing body
during the days of the revolution,
will I tins pass out of existence as
thu chief executive body of the na
tion aiiil will surrender its extraor
dinary flowers to n cabinet whose
premier, I'rinoe Lvol'f, will have the
authority upproxiinating that of the
president of u republic.
It is impossible ns yet to forecast
with liny certainty the final form the
government will assume since it will
depend entirely upon the collective
will of the entire people to which
has been extended the proclamation
of the new government regarding
universal suffrage.
Tho belief prevails in official cir
cles that the opinion of the country
will be found to favor n republican
form of government not under u pres
ident, but under a commission simi
lar to the governing body of Switzer
land. In event the old regime is dead,
the foreign office today informed the
Assoi'iated Press nnd nothing can
resurrect, it. If the people derided
upon ii monarchy it will be u mon
archy of the most limited type and
tho monarch will be strippeil of till
the traditional powers which belong
ed to I ho emperor and he will be little
more than u ruler in name only.

Ic Cross, Feverish, Rick, Bilious, Give
Fruit Laxative at
Once.
Every mother realizes, after giving
her children "California Syrup of
FIgB," that this Ib their ideal laxa
tive, because they love Its pleasant
taste and It thoroughly cleanses the
tender little stomach, liver and bow
els without griping.
When ci'obs, Irritable, feverish or
breath is bad, stomach sour, look at
the tongue, Mother! If coated, give
a tcaspoonful of this harmless "fruit
laxative," and in a few hours all the
foul, constipated waste, sour bile and
undigested food passes out of the
bowels and you will have a well,
playful child again. When its little
system is full of cold, throat sore, has
stomach-ache, diarrhoea, indigestion,
colic remember, a good "Insido
cleansing'' should always be the first
treatment given.
Millions of mothers keep "Califor
nia Syrup of Figs" handy; they know
a toaspoonful today saves a: sick child
tomorrow! Ask your drugist for a
50-cent bottle of "California Syrup
of Figs," which has directions for ba
bies, children of all ages nnd grown
ups printed on the bottle. Beware of
counterfeits sold here, so don't be
fooled. Get the genuine, made by
California Fig Syrup Company."
