JUSTICE TO SHAREHOLDERS.

(To the Editor.) j Sir, —A few weeks ago I, by your 1 favour, directed attention to the need of energy in the Old Hauraki. Xow there are five stopes going in the golden i block, and another breaking down in what appears a run may be expected | : next week. Mr. Frank Shepherd is an i elegant caligraphist. and 1 should like! to see a little more of his handwriting.! !so that we know whether the winze] ;is being sunk in tbe new reef or aj branch, and if the crosscut at the 400 ft. level is to cut that lode in which the | winze is being sunk. All of us who | know him are satisfied be i = doing his ; very best : only we should like to know | a little more of what he is doing. His: reports are rather bald. Michl I throw! out a hint to the directors of the Occi-1 dental? They have a nice little run of j gold. £1.000 being obtained from one j stope. Would it lv> asking them too ! much to run a stope across the rich | . spot once a month, and have monthly \ ii rushings. Supposing six men—say. two. 'to drive, two to leading stope, and two | ,to :-econd slope. The second slope is | ■ not mentioned in to-day's report. Give | j the shareholders a run for their 1 1 money am, etc., , : WM. S. AICKJX,
