The Times—Pleasing] _ "1* Product of the Press ——-1 limes r V ERING TON, NEVADA, SATURDAY. DECEMBER ia. iqo7. NIIMBRR INSTITUTION THAT HAS DISPLAYED ITS STRENGTH It is with a feeling of pride that we again call attention to the splendid con dition of the Lyort County bank whose doors have remained open during the time when other banks throughout the land found it necessary to shut up shop. During the panic which has resulted in great losses to corporations and indi viduals, with their attendant nerve racking strains and suicides, Lyon county points with pride to its only banking in stitution as one built upon the solid rock of conservatism. That such a condition of affairs should prevail is due to the confidence of the depositors of the institution. How fully they realized the strength of the bank and its capability to meet all de deinands made upon it, is attested by the fact that never once was there the cry of wolf. “In times of peace prepare for war,” is just as applicable to the affairs of a banking institution as it is to the affairs of a nation. The policy that has ever been pursued by the directors of the Lyon County bank is one that cannot fail to spell success. Its governing board is composed of men who have a keen sense of right and wrong and who have always been found on the side of right. How profitable it is to adhere to 9uch a |x>sition is brought out forcibly by the fact that new business is coming to the bank from remote distances. Aliove all, it speaks volumes for Yer ington. It is prima facie evidence of the stability of this section. Banks are bar ometers of a country’s prosperity. When times are good failures are un common, but let a panic hit the country and then how different. It is a worthy ship that can stand the storm at sea, it is a strong bank that can weather a finan cial crisis. The Lyon County bank has not only made port, but its deposits are greater today than they were before the slump. How’s that for Yeriugton Possibly many people do not fully real ize to what extelit the unusually prosper ous condition of business in Yerington and vicinity is due to its banking facil ities. Good, sound banking methods enable the people to maintain their credit at home and abroad, and no pro ject begun in Yerington before the de pression has been obliged to curtail in any part by reason of lack of capital. By careful and judicious use of its cash on hand the Lyon County bank has en abled its clients to perform thousands of dollars’ worth of work which has been distributed to the miners and mechanics in this vicinity. This has been done without crowding any debtors or sacri ficing a dollar of its securities. While the bank feels proud to have accom plished this without inconvenience dur ing these stringent tiniess its officers fully realize that the confidence of its clientage is a mountain of strength in tunes of trouble, and that the sensible and considerate action of its depositors ha enabled the institution to stand on a casli basis when many similar institu tions have been obliged to suspend pay ment. The bank will soon be housed in its new quarters with a full up-to-date equip ment, prepared to give its clients all the advantages afforded by any banking in stitution no matter where situated. Cus tomers at a distance doing business by mail wiH receive just as prompt and effective attention as though personally present.

To Grade Streets Klsewhere in these columns will he found an advertisement calling for pro posals for bi«Js to haul gravel for the purpose of macadamizing Main street. This action taken by the city council shows that at last Yerington is going to have a modern thoroughfare which will he devoid of the ponds, mud baths, Private shoooting preserves and open-air 'ce rinks tliaf have been so much in evi dence during the'winter months for sev eral years past. It now begins to appear as though the streets of Yerington will be in a fit con dition to weather the storms of the wint er months. Yerington is blessed with a ver.v mild climate, the winters being ®Pe|i as a rule. However, it lias been the case up to the present time that the fhgbtest storm has caused the streets to he rendered almost impassible. It is in gratifying to realize that the coun cil is to relieve the situation.

John W. Finch, formerly manager of the Consolidated, saw two men driving another and beating him with guns. Several automobile loads went to the scene but failed to apprehend the men. This and a street fight early in the week between Jack Davis and an agitator are the only acts of violence reported. Governor Sparks makes the positive statement that the troops will remain all winter. General Funston, when interviewed as to the length of time the regulars would remain here, stated, “probably some time.” The latter will remain to meet the special industrial commis sion coming from Washington and expected to arrive Monday next. Not over 50 men have offered to go to work. One hundred union men are engaged doing picket duty at the various mines to intimidate those who would return to work. No trouble reported as yet. It is probable that the electricians will go out on strike because of wage-reduction. The men must sign an agreement not to join the Western Federation of Miners. General Funston is interviewing all classes in order to gain an in timate knowledge of the situation. I he union leaders threaten to arrest the operators under chapter CXI, statutes of 1903. To make a case several “dummies” worked the first shift. The operators are willing to test the case, declaring the Act unconstitutional. There was a meeting yesterday of the mine operators and fPr merchants relative to a reduction of the cost of living at which nt ing was accomplished. _ For the enlightenment of those of our readers who are not faniTy iar with, the statute of 1903, referred to in the above dispatch, we re produce its provisions: Section x. It shall be unlawful for any person, firm or corpora tion to make or enter into any agreement, either oral or in writing, by the terms of which any employee of such person, firm or corpora tion, or any person about to enter the employ of such person, firm or corporation, as a condition for continuing or obtaining such employ ment, shall promise or agree not to become or continue a member of a labor organization, or shall promise or agree to become or continue a member of a labor organization. Sec. 2. Any person or persons, tirm or firms, corporation or cor porations, violating the provisions of Section 1 of this Act shall be deemed guilty of a misdemeanor and upon conviction thereof shall be fined in a sum not less than fifty or more than three hundred dollars, or be imprisoned in the county jail for a period of not less than twenty-five days or more than five months, or by both such fine and imprisonment. Sec. 3. All Acts or parts of Acts in conflict with the above are hereby repealed. s? '.yu -via... 1 ri" ..■—"jum I Brilliant Interview About Yerington Louis W. Trankle, secretary anti man ager of the Mason Valley Mining and Real Estate company of Yerington, Net vada, has been in Denver during the past week, giving his attention to vari ous mining matters with which he is concerned. From Yerington he brought splendid news of conditions and pro gress, stating that the general financial embarassment manifest in the country at large is in nowise reflected in the Ne vada copper camp, which, if anything, is now enjoying greater prosperity tl an and the other a beautiful chalcoeite, '■un iting 55 per cent copper. From the BlueJay Mines An attractive piece of ore is shown, pos sessing a copper worth of 42 per cent. A fine cuprite specimen from the Ludwig Runs 74 per cent, and native copper from the same mine has a value of 70 cent. Ore from the Yerington Mala chite company .carries a 22 percentage of copper. From the Yerington Copper plant, including a system of hoists, drills, etc., and has started a three comportment .shaft which will go to the 1(100-foot. The Yerlngton Consolidated Company has put in a similar plant and Will continue its shaft to a depth of 500 feet at least. This company is also driv ing a long tunnel on its property that will result in a thorough exploitation of its underground conditions. The Mason Valley J its property. The shaft is destined for I the 500-foot point and there will lie no let-up in the work until tliat depth is reached, when it is anticipated that an excellent body of ore will be opened op, judging from tlie surface indications and the investigations on the property so far pursued by mining engineers. This property recently changed hands for #250,000, a number of Eastern capitalists obtaining possession of it at that figure. Agriculture. Mr. Trankle said that while he war THE TIMES’ SERIES OF MASON VALLEY SCENES 1 FLOUR MILL AT NOROYKE FIFTY BARRELS DAILY 4 at anv time in its history. There have been no financial inconveniences notice able whatsoever; mine development has proceeded without the least show of ces sadon and noticeable success is being constantly achieved. Mr Trailkle brought with luma nunibei of fine copper ore specimens from the mines of the surrounding districts whic i he presented to the Record, and which will be added to the already excellent collection of ores maintained by the Rec ord. They are among the finest lections originating from one district a a«;ide from their value and porten AA riches, sr. jjd. hues. b““".&e SdimE specimens Am n”di8Dlav ill the specimen and min eTJde"pi»S »l ,1,E Record ere two from the Nevada-Douglas W«n*, One with copper «I«« of 2 f*r cent 1 company conies two excellent specimens j of copper which show a value of 62 and I 30 per cent, and a bornite specimen from ‘the Mason Valley Mining company bears j 45 per cent value in the red metal The Wheeler mine has contributed to J the collection with a combined copper and gold value of 5150. From the West jern Nevada couipanv comes a copper I ore of a 30 per cent value. These speci mens speak mutelv but forcefully for the mineral possibilities of the Yenngtcm section and tend to confirm the enthusi astic statements that have been made by the sanguine believers in the camp s re sources and permanency. T1 e Western Nevada Mining company, controlled by Samuel Newhouse and as sociates lias installed an equipment sul ficient to sink 1000 feet and work is now being done towards commencing the ex tension of the shaft to that point. The Yerlngton Malachite Company has installed a large electrical Copper Company has uncovered an ore body so far proved, it is said, to lx* 119 feet wide, but the extreme width has not yet been ascertained. An average copper value of 7 per cent has been obtained from this ore body. The Y•rington Copper Company, in the east zone of the district has, at a depth of 250 feet, encountered on the hanging wall a streak of chalco cite, carrying values up to 62 per cent copper. The Reno-Yerington Company, north of the Bluestone, has opened a body of ore said to be 16 feet wide, which will average about 9 per cent copper, while a streak of chalcocite on the hanging wall shows a red metal value of 60 per cent. The McConnell Company Is sinking a three-compartment shaft on 1 enthused over the mining possibilities of the Mason district, he could not refrain from mentioning the excellent success wtth which farmers are meeting. In an agricultural way the valley is liable, he thinks, to secure as great renown as has come to it by reason of the wonderful mineral values that have been uncovered. The valley, which is about 12 miles wide aiid 40 miles long, is prolific in the pro duction of hay, alfalfa and potatoes, all of which produce finds a good market in adjacent mining camps, much of it going to Goldfield, while even San Fran cisco does not fail to deceive some of th« excellent potatoes that are grown in this valley, which is resourceful enough tc easily support a population of 25,00( people.

GOOD RETURNS FROM FLYER COMPANY’S GROUND i Mara of OnkkwRl «M D. V. both of whom krv heavily inter ior j) the Flyer Gold Copper Min ipany, arrived in Vttingtm the ihe week and spent two daya in ^Ung the company's property. Durinar Mr, Gelder’s last visit, a few weeks since, a contract was let lor sink ing a shaft on the^main ledge to*a depth of 50 feet. This work has been (Con cluded and it is now proposed toAan tinue the shaft to 100 feet. Several samples of the ledge were taken by Mr. Gelder and Mr. Marx, each of which showed an average value of #20 per ton Iti gpld, in addition to a fair per cent of copftef. The company's holdings arc located across the Mason renge, in the vicinity of Buckskin. There is everv indication that the vein on which the work is being done is the same one as cuts through the Kennedy Consolidated ground and front which, on the latter, such sensational values have been obtained. The physical condition of the property l>ears all the ear-marks of making into a mine of large proportions. The com pany is financially strong and intends to prosecute development energetically and consistently. This was Mr. Marx’ first visit to the camp. lie did not hesitate to say that he was most favorably impressed. Like many others who have seen the district, he believed the time would come when Yerington would take Its place as one of Nevada's leading cities. "The camp is a most substantial lie said' "The financial flurry seeuwtar have affected it but little. I notice smell activity in the buildltag line, while there does not appear to be any lack of cash. Yerington has stood the test ami has nod been found wanting. t Producing Bullion "We are grinding away, producing bullion, was the reply of Fred Flttalt, general manager of the Wheeler,, to a question put to him by a representative of the Times. "Our mill is working steadily treating, I should say, in the’ neighborhood of ten tons of ore per day J The mill is but a five-stamp affair and while it might be inadequate Uf the present wants, it will not be enlarged this winter at least. “We intend to sliortly devote con siderable attention to a surface vein which shows for a width of nine feej and’ which has never been, prospected. ReJ cently several average 'samples of tins lead were taken, the lowest of tafeiefif was two dollars a ton in gold. W« con sider this vein worthy of no little amount of development. hiioum tne values increase somewhat at depth a«<d~ the ledge maintain its width, the Wheeler will make its mark in the min*, ing world as a producer. “We are carrying on operations at present in the big tunnel on a ledge that carries good values in gold. Indications are that the tunnel vein is either the same one that cut* through the surface or an independent one that will con verge wifh the nine-foot vein I have spoken of. In the latter event, it i* but natural to presume that big things ipay be looked for.” Mr. Flindt is a mining man of ex perience. He has seen responsible ser vice ifi tlie largest cam] s of i he Ci ast. That he came to the Wheeler as general manager speaks an abiding faith in the future of that property. He is on rec ord as saying that he will make e divi dend payer of it. Certainly, he Ikas a splendid foundation to build upon.

He reports little activity there at tine pres ent time but state* that operation* will be resumed on an extensive scale the first of the coming year. In addition to occupying the position of superintendent of the Honest En deavor, Mr. Lennard is also in charge of the Union Blue mine, which entered the class of shippers some time back.

All about it and more, too, can be had for Three Dollars The Year RECITES A GLOWING DESCRIPTION OF RAWHIDE Freeman Morningstar, president and general manager of the Nevada United Mines corporation, owning 23 claims in the new camp of Rawhide, has a great deal of interesting information in regard to that section of Nevada. The location of Rawhide is at a point almost lwlf way and on a direct line betjrecn Fairview and Totoopah. The country is character istic of the Nevada desert and was en tirely new until recently. In Jnly, 1906. Mr. Morningstar and his prospecting party were looking over the country tb the southwest of Fairview. Noticing the peculiar color of the porphyry hill. to the right, they investigated, and as result made the first locations in the dis trict. These claims were located a full 11 months before the big rush started. Mr. Morningstar yesterday received e letter from his superintendent, J. L. Strohauer, giving a glowing report os the showing on the company’s property. Ore running high in gold and silver val ues has been opened upin several places and work is progressing rapidly. Speak ing of the new town, be says: "You would not know the place since you were here ten days ago. There art now 14 restaurants, 21 saloons and every other kind of business in proportion; al> running full blast and doing an enor mous business. 1 have been told by tin assayers doing our work that a com pah) has been formed to erect a stamp mili within six weeks or two months." When Mr. Morningstar was in thi camp, about ten days ago, there weri about 400 tents and more were being added at the rate of from 12 to 15 a day. There were 40 substantial frame build ings-stores, assay offices, real estatt and brokerage firms. A fine two-stor\ bank building was then nearing comple tion. There are two main businee; streets, one of which, Main street, is over half a mile long. Ml J auc cany leasers in me camp are mar* ing big profits. A great deal of rich ore is now being sacked and sent out of tin district. The two most promising ship pers at present are the lessees on tht Snowgoose and Roseberry groups. Al ready several leases have been sold a* high as $30,000 and $40,000, and this price was paid for only small portions oi claims. Mr. Morningstar says there art more tlian 100 leasers working in tht camp The United Mines corporation is de veloping its territory and has the largest working, force in the district. The ledges in the new district are un usually large for a high-grade camp. At ■the Happv Hooligan mine, where an open cut is being run, the vein is 5 1*2 feet wide and is very strongly shown for a long distance. The ore here is a quartz-porphyry, occurring between por phyry on the foot-wall and dolomite lime. Mr. Morningstar exhibited to a representative of the News a piece of this quartz-porphyry ore that fairly glis tened with beads of the yellow metal. There are a great many men in the camp from Goldfield and Tonopah and they are general in their opinion that Rawhide is the greatest strike in the State since the great Goldfield was dis covered. They also believe that within the next six months there will be from 5000 to 10,000 people in the new town. Fairview and Yerington are well repre sented in the new camp.—Deseret News. PROMISING PROPERTY IN SMITH VALLEY Ira Fallon and S. A. Kinmell were in Yerington from the Fallon ranch, Smith valley, this week. With them they brought several samples of splendid looking copper ore which they extracted from the Clipper group of claims, owned by them and located about three miles east of Mr. Fallon’s home. The samples seen by the Times man carry snlpurets of copper in abundance and resemble in character some of the ore that is coming from the lower levels of the Ludwig. Associated with Messrs. Fallon and Kinmell in the ownership of the group is George Warren. They have been working on it for several months and have accomplished good results. A tun nel has been driven in on the vein for a distance of 325 feet, at which point the ledge shows a width of 12 feet with but the hanging-wall exposed. The surface outcrop is 12 feet in width. Assays taken there show an average value of 9 per cent in the red metal. The gentlemen believe they have something big and from their report there can be no other conclusion ar rived at. The ranges on either side of Smith valley are just now receiving much at tention at the hands of the prospector. Good finds are being reported which may result in the birth of a genuine boom as soon as the money stringency ii relieved. Read the Times.

PAINTS A BEAUTIFUL HEAD OF HAIR To be robbed of an abundant growth of hair on the top of one’s head in the course of a very few days and left com pletely bald-headed is a transition de voutedly to be prayed against. Those who have known Walter Baird, proprietor of the Owl, during -his resi dence here have been waqd'ering'what terrible calamity befell him to cause hinr to lose all his domv decoration in “the twinkling of an eye,!’and to regain it almost as quickly. It might have been due to monumental gall or the desire to gratify the curiosity of the public which caused the Times man to inquire of Mr. Baird, in the presence of a crowd, the reason of. the phenomenon. “I have no objection to informing you.’’ said Mr Baird as he smiled pleas antly. “It’s just like this: A few years ago I lost my hair and was rendered ter ribly bald. A friend of mine t61d me to use willow bark and I Would soon have as heavy a head of hair as I ever pos sessed. .1 tried’this tonic and the re sults were remarkable. By the middle of summer my hair had grown wonder-, fully. But, strange to say, in the fall, when the leaves begin to fall from the trees, I again lost my hair. I tried the self-same stuff in the spring with sntis 1 factory results, but again in the fall my hair fell out. I have noticed since that every fait, when the leaves ire falling from the willows, my hair vanishes. Willow bark is all right—in the summer, time.” During his discourse Mr. Baird had forgotten that this fall was a notable ex ception to the rule. However, the real trutii has leaked out, and is too good to hold from our readers. It seems that a few days since Mr. Baird dropped into a local restaurant for dinner. Of course, he removed his hat, w hich custom has Jong been followed in ihe particular eating-house in question. At once he was ihe envy of all the gen tlemen present. Win a beautiful head of hair, was murmured audibly over the room. The young lady attending to the wants of Mr. Baird was visibly affected. She positively could not resist the temptation of running her fingers through' that magnificent growth. Imagine her sur prise and the feminine yell which caused everyone to start in alarm when die drew forth her fingers, which had been discolored by some substance. “My goodness,” she exclaimed, “it’s painted.” and then fell in a faint, as Mr. Baird left the room in a hurry. Later n in the day, Mr. Baird was heard to wy to Ed. Blanchard, the paititer, in a heated fashion: Damn you, Blanchard, why in thun der didn’t you tell me that paint wasn’t dry. You did a mighty good job, but you turned the work out before it had time to dry.”

Please Send me the Times at S3.00 per year Name— Address- State Enclosed please find $_ WHAT WILL THE HARVEST BE During the forty-two years that have elapsed since Nevada was adniitted into the sisterhood of States she has had a remarkable career. Her history is one that teems with interest. Crowded into her brie! existence are experiences of wealth and prosperity, and of poverty and woe. In the hours of deepest distress she stood with fortitude the jeer: of a nation she had so proudly aided through a tempestuous crisis that seemed tike to sever it in twain. From her coffers overflowing with the. many millions extracted from the bowels of the earth by the horny handed miner there poured a continuous stream of gold that saved tin day and spelt success for the author of the emancipation proclamation Fbrty-two years she has passed through many trying times. Con troversies have arisen between labor and capital which have been sat isfactorily adjusted without the necessity of recourse to federal aid And now in the forty-third year of her existence it has been decided to enlist the aid of the government regulars to accomplish—we know not what. Within the confines of the city of Goldfield there are stationed several companies of United States troops to prevent, it is said, rioting and disorder. For the first time in the history of the country tin American flag has been carried into the State of Nevada at the head of ill-paid regulars to symbolize an obedience to the dictates of mam mon, which must be respected even at the sacrifice of human life ii necessary. The events leading up to the calling in of the troops are fresh iii!‘ ,j. Agents for Milburn and Pontiac Vehicles. General Harness Busines^ including’ repair work of all kinds.

Fox, Yerington YERINGTON CAPITAL AT RAWHIDE Yerington is moving sight into line and Contributing her share of capital towards the development of Rawhide, in the consummation of a deal between Ira Wagoner and E. H. Whitacre and associates. Mr. Wagoner has transferred his bond on the famous Mascot group of claims to Whitacre and several other capitalists who are associated with him. The Mascot consists of a group of six claims which were among the first lo cations made, and in the very center of the high grade belt. They take in nearly all of Mascot hill and were origi nally located by McLeod and Wadge. Those conversant with the thorough mil ing methods employed by Mr. Whita cre and those associated with him, in other mining sections will consider what the advent of such men mean to a new camp. With cash, and plenty of it combined with*a judicious proportion of mining horse-sense, it will be a great surprise if with the great surface show ings developed on the Mascot prop erty the group doeis not move up to the top in the picture gallery. According to the calamity howlers, times were never harder, but with the present influx of mining men and capi talists ot repute, Rawhide will more than hold her own, for the camp cer tainly has a brilliant future and is grow ing better every day.—Rawhide Rustler.

PUBLIGin COMMISSION WOULD ADVERTISE YERIN6T0N The editor of the Times is in receipt of a personal letter from Sam P. Davis, chairman of the State publicity commis sion, in which the writer states that his office is about to publish a bulletin for distribution throughout the east, bearing the official endorsement of the coamiis sion. Under section eight of the Act e;ich county may contribute $250 to the pur poses of the Act. Lyon county has taken no action in the matter, although the Times is of the opinion that the ex penditure of that sum in judicious adver tising would result in great good. We reproduce a portion of Mr. Davis’ letter: Carson City, Dec. 7, 1907. Editor Times: Dear sir—I sent that last issue of yours on to New York, and I will keep things moving in that direction and bend the energies of the publicity commission to bring about tangible results. I wish you would make me out a com plete list of the actual working mines in Yerington district. We want to publish a bulletin and send it all over the east under the official endorsement of the commission. This would help the district a lot and attract capital. Your county has as yet taken no action and contributed no money to the commission as allowed by section 8 of the Act. If your chamber of com merce could make a contribution we could get out this bulletin and circulate it before January 1. Yours as ever, Sam Davis. _._—•—• Notice I will not be responsible for any bills or transactions contracted by any person other than myself. A. Cipriani. Dayton, Nevada, November 15, 1907. MASON VALLEY WILL HEAP BENEFITS The enterprising merchants of Schurz have taken time by the forelock and are making extensive preparations to divert the trade their way. Already the side tracks are full of freight cars, loaded with all manner of mining supplies to supply the needs of the town of Raw hide whose growth is astonishing the mining world. There has never been a mining camp established in Nevada but what had to contend with a shortage of supplies at various intervals but even the rapidity with which Rawhide is growing will not necessarily entail any lack of supplies in the immediate future owing to the thorough preparation for the incoming rush by the merchants of Schurz. Arrangements have been extended to the Mason Valley, where the finest garden produce in the state of Nevada is raised and sold at prices that compare favorably with the east. There is a wagon road smooth as a billiard table from Schurz to Yerington, the depot of supplies for the ranchers of Mason Valley. This will bring all the products of the ranches to the doors of Rawhide at very little cost. Mr. A. Gifford, manager of the Miller Lux interests at Yerington recently drove from there to Rawhide with the idea of looking into the business possi bilities of the camp and announced that he was astounded at our growth and the wonderful showings being uncovered in the ground. He was accompanied by Mr. Gallagher, brother of Senator Gal lagher, in his ride, which only con sumed six hours, with a double team, from Yerington to Rawhide. Messrs. Snowgoose, Burdick, Brand, Tidwell, Henderson and Spillman of Schurz, are most enthusiaslic in their efforts to divert the trade that way and liave raised quite a sum of money to make what improvements are necessary in the road.—Rawhide Rustler.

ENCOURAGING WORDS I FROM YERINGTON COPPER General Manager Joseph Caine, of the Yerington Copper company, is in receipt of most 'encouraging news from the mine. Hearing, in a roundabout way, that a rich strike had been made at the property, Mr. Caine wired the superin tendent for confirmation of the report and yesterday he receiver! a rcpiy giv ing more definite news. The message states that five feet of mineral!, d por phyry has come into the bottom of tilt shaft, and that this carries a good streak of chalcopvrite. The property of the Yerington Copper has been looking extremely good for some time past and the last hit of news was not entirely unexpected. The in cline shaft is now down 330 feet and the showing is improving daily, only a small force is now working hut when condi tions permit, the mine will he worked to its full capacity. J. II. Turner, of the Yerington Cop per mountain property, adjoining the Yerington Copper on the south and east, has lately received many favorable re ports from this mine. The shaft has attained a depth of 180 feet and is mak ing good headway. The properties in the eastern part of Yerington district are coining so rapidly to the front that this section is receiving a greater part of the attention due it.— Deseret News. WILL DEVELOP SUNSET GROUP OF CLAIMS Without waiting to hear the result of the Bartlett hill, which is intended to remit the annual assessment work on mining claims for the year 1907 if it passes Congress and Incomes a law, the operators interested in the Yerington district are going right ahead complying with the law now upon the statute books. This week a pi rty of men arrived froth Toixpih to complete assessment wotk on the Sunset group of cl lims, lo cated ueir the Honast Kndeavar and Union Blue company's ground, in the i neighborhood of the Nevada-Douglas holdings. One of the principal stockholders in the Sunset is W. B. Pittman, a well known attorney of Tonopah, formerly district attorney of Nye county. He in forms the Times that soon after the first of the year it is the intention of the company to inaugurate a very active campaign of development. The Sunset group is located in a very choice section of the Yerington district. The surface indications point to the opening up of good ore bodies at depth, which has imanably resulted in that locality upon he expenditure of con sistent develop-, **wt. CONTRACT FORTUNNEL ON THE WILSON A contract has been let for a tunnel on the property of the Wilson Gold Mines company at Mountain View to lie driven a distance of 100 feet. The object of this tunnel is to tap. at considerable depth, one of the large veins which shows strongly on the surface, carrying good values in gold. While this work is going ahead, the company will continue to press opera tions on other parts of the estate. It is the desire to accomplish rapid results and at the present rate of progress an early find of sensational proportions is anticipated. The Wilson Gold Mines company has a big proposition. There are great quantities of milling-grade ore already in sight, but so clearly are the indica tions for bigger things, that the com pany is bending every effort to open up a shoot of high-grade. The finding of tellurium ore on the Shirley C, an adjoining claim, almost at surface, has created somewhat of a stir in the Mountain View section. The pre vailing opinion is that the district is coming into its own and that before spring it will enjoy a boom unprece dented iiLthis fleck of the .woods. INSPECTING HOLDINGS Hon. T. D. Jones, a member of the twenty-second session of the Nevada legislature, from Washoe county, was an urriva in Yerington Wednesday to look after nining intends in this locality. Mr. Jones is heavily interested in the Homestake property, located near the Datapie ranch. The company has been vigorously prosecuting development for the past several weeks accomplishing results eminently satisfactory. The property carries both gold and copper to an ex tent that shows it an excellent prospect. Kvery confidence is reposed in its ulti mate ascension into the mine class. The stockholders are principally Sac ramentans. They believe they will make a mine, an opinion which meets the concurrence of all who are acquaint ed with the group. Bill No. 28.
