Geologist Believes Vat Wealth Burled at Greater Depth. . The geological reports show many mines in this county that ought to be worked producing gold and cop per, towit:. The Hoover Hill mine, Sawyer mine, the Winningham, Slack, Winslow and Dave's Moun tain mines, Wilson-Kennedy mine, the Jones mine, the U whame mine, the Russell and the Newby mine, the Herring mine and several o'her mines that have been producing mines, only worked lor tree gold, all of which contain below the water line quantities of sulphurous smelting ores, also many other promising mines that show mineral. In the vicinity of Asheboro we have many prospect mines; the Gray mine, McDowell, Lowe, Lambert, Allred, Spencer, Redding, Spoon, Hamilton, Pool mines and other prospects that can produce suf ficient to supply smelter worus at Asheboro. Asheboro Doing on the gold mineral belt extendiug N. E. and S. W. through the State cou tabling hundreds of mines, is well located to produce ores. H. B. Meech, G. S. M. E , of 346 Broad way, New York, is here for the Asheboao Copper Mining Company, who have a copper aud gold mine two miles north of here. Mr. Meech has made a suney of this property and three maps showing a plan view of the location and a plau view of the mineral surface forma tion showing 400 ft. iu width of mineral, and 300 ft. in width of quartz etc. wall formation on the west and 300 ft in width of grey shist wall formation on the east, all running N. E.and S. W. 2500 feet in length on thep operty, and show ing two shaf fcO feet d"eep connect ed by a drift 108 feet long together with other smaller shafts on the lode. All show from 8 to 15 per cent, copper. Mr. Meech also shows that the ore is richer at a greater depth. Mr. Meech has had 30 years of experience in geological surveys and has made and putentea many im provements now being success fully used in Western mined. His experience has given him a thorough knowledge of mineral formations and what is required to treat them Mr. Meech tor the past five years at different times, has been exam ining the mines and mineral forma tions of the State of North Carolina. Four years ago he spent six months in examining mines through the state, aud has become greatly interested in the mineral resources of this State. According to the geological survey of the minerals there are 220 gold mines and 50 copper mines that have been worked aud twice as many that have not been worked. Many of the mines have a record of producing millions of values and only down 300 to 700 ft. and many mines have thousand of tous of ores on the dumps, (many processes have beeu tryed to work, excebt smelting works) all lying dormant fir the want of smelt ing works. Mr. Meech says that with such smelting works as they have in the west that North Caroli na miues should produce $20,000. 000, of gold and copper per year. Therefore the state should assist when a man who knows and under stands the art of smelting and striv ing to get capital to build smelting works, the only process that is sure to work the ores and develop the great mineral res. urces of the state, xhe state could affrrd to appropri ate $100,000 to build smelting works, as it would benefit the peo ple aud increase property . value many million of dollars. Mr, Jlceh is now here in the in terest of Asheboro Copper Mining Company, to assist in. getiug capi tal to build his lmj rjved smelting works to work their copper and gold ores with several other.uiiues iu this district that can product sufficient ores to supply such smelt uij; works. ' By what we hae learned from Mr. Meech smelting works is the only sure way to develop aud produce the wealth of the many mines ot this county, and the State geological survey and all uieu interested in mining should assist all they can iu getting such smelting works iu operation. Wheat Yields. Roddie Swaim, of Suudv Creek, neighborhood, who did bis own threshing, tnreshed 735 bushels of wheat aud 231 bushels of oats.- ; C. ' H. Welch, wno was with Brower, Routh & Co.. says they thieshed two big crops: A P. Brow er, 1.110 bushels, Tom York, 970 bushels. This firm of threshers used horse power and was out six weeks. : These are the three largest crops in Lib. erty township, aud generally speak ing the wheat crop is good. Siler City Grit. Mies Steela Bridewell, of Raleigh was he e Monday on her way to Farmer where she has charee of the irimttry workia the schrol there. NATIONAL EDITORIAL ASSC CIATION. Continued from fitut page Mr. Thos. Tajrgurt, Chairman Na tional DemocnmcJUommittee. Meal tickets were turuisheu each guest, street cars were at the disposal of the visitors and i" fact everything was "free gratis for nothing." Upon being questioned as to the truth of the Hearst articles an at tache of the hotel said: , . "No one denies there has been gambling here. There is gambling more or less in eery hotel. Where there are men of means and leisure, of tbe class that stops at hotels, they will while away their time ac gauibliug. J tench Lick at tracts many wealthy men aud some of them gamble at times. However, the recent newspaper stories were not based on tne real conditions here." The name Freuch Lick is derived from two sources; the hist part comes from the fact tUat the early settlers were of Freuch birth and tie latter, that great Uerus of titer aud bultalo useU to come from the lorests to "lick" these salty waters. The water is c illed "Pluto water" aud although it nas wonderful cura tive properties aud is known far and wide, one can't help thinking tkut fluto must nave had a hand iu tne rlavorlug; it is tne worst I ever tasted. Freuch Lick Springs are located in Southern Indiana, in a beautitul valley with ranges of wooded nils all around. Viws from ths hotel are picturesque 000 acres ot woodlaud, which by the hand of nature aud skill of man constitutes a beautiful park. The hotel is up-to-date in every particular; it affords accommodations for about a thous and guests. It was built at a cost ofaoout a million dolbtrs. Some of the best people come here from all over the United States. No where so teir the heart of civilization can be found springs that compare with these .at French Lick. The Hot Springs of Arkansas and Colorado Springs, of Col. are aloug the same line but they are not easily accessible to the people of the South and East. OCR HOST, "MK. TAGOART." 5 Mr. Taggait started in life as a news boy in Indianapolis. He was at one time mayor of Indianapolis and is now ch-iirinan of the National Democratic Committee. He is a genial, p easant man, big in heart and body, succeeds in everything that he undertakes. An Indiana editor cbmpliments him very highly when he says: "Tom Taggart is a gentleman which iu our dictionary of today means that he isamau that is clean inside and outside, who neither looks up to the rich nor down on the poor, who can fail without the los? of pride and honor and win without bragging; who is considerate to wo men, children and old people; who is too brave to lie, too generous to cheat, aud who takes his share of i he world and lets other people have theirs. This is the kind of a gentle man we mean wheu we speak of Tom Tacgart." Suuday night we left French Lick Springs "to continue our Indiana tour of which you will hear more nevt week. Tkxdekfiiot.
