Eureka daily sentinel. [volume] (Eureka, Nev.) 1871-1887, 1881-06-25

Some time ago, says the San Francisco
Stock Report, Superintendent Mason. OF
the Silver King mine, discovered that con-
siderable quantities Of rich ore with which
that mine abounds were being stolen by
the miners. A careful watch was begun,
but the opportunities of taking it were SO
great, and constantly increasing as the
mine was opened, that little could be done
to check it. On one occasion nearly q ton
of the richest ore was found to have been
shipped to st. Louis. This was recovered
after some difficulty and expense. The
disaster to the thieves put q stop to the
thievery for a while, but it soon recon-
menced. About two weeks ago nearly
a thousand pounds Of rich stuff was
found secreted in q secluded canyon
some miles from the mine, evidently the
result Of several weeks operations of the
This led Mr.. Mason to believe that the
thievery was conducted by a number Of
persons in a systematic way, and he re-
solved to break it up. He called up all
hands, told what had been found and de-
manded to know all about it. OF course all
proclaimed their innocence. He discharged
everybody about the mine and closed up
the shaft, saying that he would not resume
operations until he found out the names of
the thieves. The act aroused considerable
excitement for several days, but Mason was
firm. Matters were finally arranged by the
miners ~consenting to be searched hereafter
when they come out Of the mine, and un-
der this agreement those who were not be-
lieved to have been guilty have been set to
work. The ore stolen ranges all the way
from 81 to 50 a pound in value, and it is
easy to see that a considerable sum can be
carried off before the theft is discovered.

Carson Tribune: The semi-annual set
Elements Of the County Treasurers OF Ne
yada are falling to so fearfully low an
amount that the people Of the State must
awake to the fact that bankruptcy is STAR
ing them in the face. The Official Salary
bill was opposed by the Tribune, as ap-
pears by reference to our files, but all to
no purpose. The few who, DESTROYS Of
making for themselves a legislative record
in honesty. retrenchment in expenditures
and general reform, stuck to the PROPOSE
ton and the bill became a law. At the last
session another reformer () (Democrat)
caused the finishing touch to- be put on the
ridiculous measure, and here is a part of
the result we prognosticated: The Treas
urer of Ormsby county turned in 81, 469 40;
Washoe, S1,173 80; Elko mark that,
1929 4s; Lincoln, 1925 16; Douglas,
S164 81. The above, let it be understood,
is the June, or ~semi-annual, returns Of the
counties heard from for the year 1881.
Now, turn us to 1879, and the following
amounts appear as the receipts for June,
viz: Washoe county, s2,705 80; Ormsby,
1,701 46; Elko mark, S2,937 81;
Lincoln, 5 1,6s4 80. We leave the above
figures to the consideration Of our readers,
and beg them mark, learn and inwardly
digest the subject, proposing to refer at
length to the matter as opportunity may
serve.

The Competing Line.

The Virginia Chronicle believes that the
Carson Appeal is over sanguine as to the
advantage which Nevada will reap from the
new line which Jay Gould and Sydney Dill
lon propose to build from Salt Lake to San
Francisco. The Appeal says: 1.-The Chron-
icle believes that instead Of having one
master in the person Of Stanford, we will
have two, Gould being the additional one.
Such a thing is possible, but 1t is hardly
probable. that Gould will prove so unjust
and exacting to Nevada as Stanford has
been and is. The proposition OF charging
back freight on goods not actually carried
as charged, is something absolutely I'M
heard OF on any line in the world except
those controlled by Stamford 4 Co. The
people Of the East would not allow such q
preposterous swidle for q day. Driven to
q pitch OF utter desperation mob law would
reign before such an outrage would be al
lowed. Gould, with all his reputation for
making money, never was charged with
grinding the public down to nothing, and
OF demanding for freight half the value OF
the goods. Even IL Gould proposes to come
here and make the Central Pacific divide
its plumber, the trampled people Of Nevada
will have the satisfaction OF knowing that
the Central Pacific Is making less out OF
their misfortunes than 1t has been accus-
toned to-"

Johnny Moore's Luck.

Carson Appeal John Quincy Adams
Moore, who used to be in pretty good cir
cumstances, has for years past been ex-
periencing a steady decay Of fortune. The
sheet anchor Of all his hopes was a coal
mine, situated about two and a half miles
from Carlin, in the Humboldt range. He
got traces Of coal in 1862 while engaged in
a pilgrimage to White Pine, and ever since
he has been digging about the spot and
most Of the money he made went into
drifts and tunnels in the coal mine. He
finally struck the vein and has now a
breast of splendid coal eight feet wide.
The vein can be traced for over a mile
along the ridge, and those who have in
spected the find believe that there is
enough good coal in the mountains to sup
ply the entire State. Quite recently the
mine was visited by some New Jersey cap
~italists, among whom was Ex-Governor
Randolph. They said that the coal was
nearer anthracite than any they had seen
on the coast, and offered to put capital
into the mine and develop it for an inter
est. The coal will burn readily when held
in the fame of a candle, and is quite pure.
1t will not be long before the mine will be
properly opened and a practical test made
OF its value.

The Butte Montana Inter-Mountain of
the goth instant has the following personal;
General P. E. Conner. one Of the most
prominent figures in the military history
of the Pacific Coast, arrived to-day from
Salt Lake. He is now cultivating the arts
of peace, being engaged in extensive min
ing operations at Stockton, Utah. Gen.
eral Conner commanded the California
and Nevada Volunteers during the late
war, and won enduring fame as an Indian
fighter, having almost annihilated the
Bannacks and Shoshones in 1854, besides
which great service to the country he COM
manded the campaign against the scarcely
less treacherous and turbulent Mormons,
preventing them from raising the rebel
flag and undoubtedly saving the lives of
hundreds of travellers who afterward passed
through Utah ON their way to California.
1t thus appears that General Conner has
rendered important services to the Gov
eminent, and the welcome which is every
where else extended to him will not be
withheld by the citizens of Butte.

Conkning's Curl.

That pretty curl Of hair adorning the
forehead OF Conkling, which everybody
notices in all his pictures, is not altogether
the result of vanity on his part. The Au-
burnian IN. " tells the of II. as
follows:
An old lady, who knew the ex-senator's
father and mother, says lone day when
Roscoe was visiting my family, as the
horse and sulky were brought up to the
door and my father was just about ready
to start out for a ride among his patients,
young Roscoe, thinking he would get some
life out of the old horse, took q pin and
stuck il into his launches, when the usu-
ally staid animal suddenly gave . kick and
hit Roscoe a severe blow on the forehead,
cutting a cash that to this day leaves a
scar on the brow. And this 10 why the ex-
Senator permits a little auburn curl to
drop down over the blemish."

Railroad District.

The Times Review says that NJ. ]. Hatch
has just returned from the railroad. He
has visited old friends, and while there
took a trip to Railroad District. The sale
made to Wilde Il Co. Is being utilized, and
the mine is producing about eight tons Of
copper bullion per day. This is the Blue
Belle mine. The same firm Of Wilde d
Co. have also purchased the Bald
Mountain Chief, and as soon as
the tunnel is completed they will
take out ore enough to keep the smelter
steadily at work. Mr.. Hatch has bought
some fine galena prospects at Railroad Dis
trict. The ore assays from $50 to $110 per
ton, and carrying the required iuxing ele-
ments. The ores can be sold for two
thirds Of their assay value at Eureka, and
several Of similarly reported mines are
about to extract ores and sell them in the
Eureka market. On the whole, the camp
has q fine outlook.
