YESTERDAY Hon. n. wescoit and J.
P. Curtiss made mining survey, which
is an anomaly in this district, and which
is attracting much comment from our
mining experts. W. F. Stewart, agent
for the Centennial, has got the idea in
his head that our mining belt is as per-
manent as are the lodes at Virginia City.
That the lodges have general trend
from northwest to southeast, and a foot
wall dip toward the northeast. In sim
pier words. Stewart is satisfied that the
mines OF Phoebe obey the universal law
of laminar fracture, and that the great
quartzite belt extending from Bullion
vile to the range north Of Piochs. is the
true matrfx Of the great mineral belt.
For this reason John Lynch and Frank
Stewart have located the ledge cas-. Q!

feet, and called it the Frank Stewart
