Surely there must be lodes of gold- bearing quartz in that region to supply all this gold They must be richer than anywhere that has been discovered formerly and go them to fiml a quartz mine if I find placer Cripple Creek abound every direction or else all this gold would not be Now the question arises which of all the thories are right lias the gold been deposited by the operation of nature's laws or has it been from a mechanical cause After the earth's crust first formed the poles of the earth enjoyed the first tropical atmosphere (that wLich is tropical now was plu tonic theu) and as the crust of the cartli gradually cooled the poles turned first to temperate zone and next to frigid Where this took place what had been her rivers turned to beds of These beds of ice grew as they collected the moisture and snows of winter The warm months of summer would como and heck their surface Those checks would fill with water and when it would freezo Again each check would be a little wedge expanding and billions of these little wedges would slowly move a mountain of ice Underneath this ice was perhaps some soft formation carrying gold in small quantity slowly being ground to cloy and sand While this great mill has heen grinding for au untold nge and 1ms planed away or levelled mountain ranges that perhaps were as high ms the Rockies this clay and sand was washed down into the valleys and on into the ocean but the gold was too heavy to go It stayed behind one little atom would unite and blend with another until enough would get together to form a nugget and theso lie in the path of the glacier thut freed them from the nrnlrix through which they wero formerly disseminated Had our Sierra Xcvadas in the same way been planed twice as much our placer mines would have been twice as rich but our lodes would bo no richer and perhaps many of them would have been ground away entirely So I not think those northern fields aro goud ones for quartz mines But where those glaciers have traversed gold regions tbo placer miner can reap the lieuefit of all their work Water Dispute Ended A decree was rendered iu the Circuit Court at San Francisco by Judge Morrow Saturday
