TIE Gold Hill News OF Saturday, c'h- Z
tains the following in regard to The pres
ent condition and future prospect of the
Crown Point mine: About 400 toas OF
ore are extracted daily from the iuJV,
1900 aud 1900 foot levels. The OK Is Of
the same character as described IN pre-
vious reports. A Drift on the HOO foot
level is being pushed forward rapidly TO
connect with the south Wine f1Om the
1900. which is on the boundary line OF
the Crown Point and Belcher. Have Lot
vet made connection with the middle
winzs on the same level, but expect TO
do SO hourly, thereby obtaining better /
ventilation. A double compartment |
is being run on the l5O0-toot level. |
Work ON the south compartment, has |
been stopped in orderthatthe one north, |
which is designed solely for ventilation
purposes, may overtake the former. \
steady stream OF water, hot enough to
cook an egg in five minutes, continues
to flow from this level. The pumps are
taxed to their utmost capacity. The
various breasts and slopes throug bout \
the mine ale looking splendidly, and are
yielding their usual amount OF excellent
ore.
STOREY COUNTY FISAScEs.-With the
exception of the railroad bonds, says the
Enterprise. Storey county does not now
owe a dollar. The last of her warrants
were yesterday redeemed by Deputy
| County Treasurer A. l.. Edwards. The
batch of old warrants redeemed yester-
day dated back to 1865, and the princi-
| pal amounted to Sl0, 40S, upon which
had accumulated interest amounting to
| 80. lS9. so, or in all total of $40, 541 80.
| This sum was redeemed at wa cents on
the dollar in currency (though paid in
coin). The amount of coin paid was
S1S, 0S1.74 School warrants, all issued
to date, to the amount of $40, $3.50 were
also paid yesterday. All this was in
Virginia School District. Besides all
these there has been paid to the State on
account of the semi-annual settlement,
S37, 500, and still there is LETT in the re-
demption fund the sum of $4,000 in
coin. 1t would now seem that with
proper economy our county should 60
along swimmingly, and without any fear
of future financial endorsements.
The Carson Appeal, of Sunday, says
Under the head Of Neglected Duty, in
yesterdays issue, the Enterprise com
plains of the neglect of some of the
County Assessors of the State to repor
at all upon their County Statistics, and
of the meagreness Of some of the reports
rendered. We would state, for the in
formation of the Enterprise, that late
law on the subject, which is to be fount
on page 81, Statutes of 1873 is eminent.
calculated to remove all difficulty o
cause OF complaint in future. The Sur
veyor- General has written TO the variou
County Assessors and sent them blank
, as per instructions of the law. Thus IA
very full reports have been received AM
are on file in his Office from all tn
: counties except Lincoln, Douglas an
o Eureka. The Assessors of these countie
@ will no doubt be heared from very soor
