TALK UP YOUR CAMP.
How to Bring Mines Into tn,
Worlds Market.
Mining and Scientific Press.


Mining and Scientific Press.
1t has generally happened that the mos
successful mining camps have been the
best advertised camps, as, for instance,
Leadville, Deadwood, Tombstone, Bodie,
Wood River, Butte, etc. If the people in
these camps sat still and never said a word
about their mines; if they did not establish
newspapers to disseminate news abou,
them; if they did not write about them and
talk about them, and tell people what they
were and what they were expected to be,
and generally elbow their own horns
then none Of these camps would be one
quarter as much developed as they are now.
Mines alone will not make a successful
mining camp by any means. We all know
lots of places where there are good mines,
but no ''boom" has struck them, and nc
attention is paid to them.
Every mining camp wants capital, and
every mining camp wants-talk. The
mines bring the prospectors, the prospec.
capital and the capital brings the coin.
Then the camp becomes a camp indeed.
The talk has been as potent a factor as
the mines, the people or the capitalists. II
it had not been for that, people would have
gone elsewhere where there was talk.
What is the use Of good mines if no one
knows about them? OF what service is a
camp that cannot get people to examine its
mines?
In fact, we know of q number Of in
stances where q camp has been made tenn
porarily by talk alone, no mines worthy
the name being there. But the examples
serve to show the truth Of the argument
that talk exercises q potent influence In
making mining camps.

Another swell Dinner.

The most important dinner in Washing
ton {" banquet" in Eureka) of the first
week in March was that given by Senator
Fair in his parlors at the Arlington on
Saturday evening. The Senator has the
second floor of the Sumner House, the
Arlington's new annex, and uses the GEN.
ter room, fronting on Vermont Avenue,
for his banquets. The table was profusely
decorated with flowers, and with the crys-
tai candelabras and silver fruit stand and
other table embellishments presented
a most tasteful and elegant appearance.
The MENU, which was an elaborate affair
in itself, comprised a choice assortment of
delicacies, and a careful selection of wines.
The guests were Senators Sherman, Slater,
Teller, Aldrich, Cameron Of Wisconsin,
Conger, Dawes. Edmunds, Hale, Harri-
son, Hswley, Johnson, Lapham, McDill,

The editor Of the Ruby Hill News has
interviewed Bird Reynolds on the Wood
River question, with the following result;
Bird thinks it is a fine country for anyone
but the man who goes there seeking work
on days pay. There is any quantity of
work, but there is nc advantage over Eure-
ka or Ruby Hill in either pay or oppor-
tunities for a ~workingman; and, in fact,
he is Of the opinion that q laboring man
can do better in Eureka than in any of
the camps he has visited. The opportuni-
ties for prospecting in the Wood River
region, however, are excellent, and the
man who has money enough to carry him
in this line is almost sure Of success.
Many prospectors who went from Nevada
made stakes and have good properties. and
there is still room for the enterprising.
Bird expects TO return In q couple Of
months, and says that he has a prospect or
two at the north on which he Is liable to
realize.

A SAD


Made Wretched by WHISKY, o
Young Man Kills Himself.
The Salt Lake Herald says: On Friday
morning William Swan. q young man and
an employe Of the Utah Central Railroad,
committed suicide by taking ~strychnine.
The young man, it appears, was passion
ately fond Of liquor, the desire for which
he was unable to resist, and the indulg-
ence in which had caused O separation be-
tween himself and wife, whom he loved,
and by whom he had become the father
Of three children. Early on Friday
morning he called at the house Of N. V.
Jones in the Fifteenth Ward, and as he
was leaving said to Mrs. Jones, who was
his sister, that he might not see her again,
and wished her good bye. He then called
at the house Of his late wife, and handed
her a phial in which there was still q small
quantity of strychnine, and told her he
had taken q portion Of it. He then went
to the residence of another sister, Mrs.
Thomas E. Hull, where he was seized with
spasms, and died in 40 minutes.
The young man was most respectfully
connected, and was bright and capable
but realizing that drink had got the bette,
of him, and that 1t had caused the separa'
ton between him and his wife, and tina
the future held nc encouraging prospects
he doubtless, in a thoroughly ~desponden,
mind, executed the thought that he coult
at once find rest from pain and an anti
dote by which he would forever end hi
thirst for the fatal cup.

The Carson Tribune says: "Thursday
the Supreme Court rendered . decision de-
claring unconstitutional the Act passed by
the 1879 Legislature relieving the Bonanza
firm from paying the penalties on deferred
payment OF taxes on their vast possessions
In Storey County. This decision will
necessitate the immediate payment of the
amount due into the Treasury Of Storey
County. or. it is presumable, that an execu'
ton will be at once issued against the
firms property in Virginia"
The sum due Storey County and the
State for penalties by the Bonanza firm
amounts to S72, sos 90, Of which $50, OF!
so goes to Storey County, and s33,4sS u
goes to the State.

THE STATE VS.. PENROsE.
How this Somewhat Notorious Case

How this Somewhat Notorious Case
Died I'm Court Yesterday.
In the latter part Of October, 1881, an
assault was made upon James E. Ander-
son, proprietor Of the Eureka Leader, by
W. J. Penrose, the circumstances Of
which everybody here are familiar with.
Penrose was indicted a few days since by
the Grand Jury for this offense and
charged with an "assault with a deadly
weapon with intent to commit great
bodily injury" When the case was called,
the District Attorney, Judge W. H. Dav-
EXPORT, addressed the Court and moved
for q dismissal Of the suit for the follow
ing reasons:
First, that the most important witness
for the prosecution was not to be found;
that il the case were pressed TO immedi-
ate trial he would, for this reason, be
forced to ask for a continuance of the
suit; and that were said witness present
in Court his testimony would be 80 con-
tradicted that conviction would be hope
less.
Second, that he was in receipt Of a
letter from James E. Anderson, Esq,
requesting that the case be dismissed;
hence he would evidently be deprived of
sympathy and support Of the principal wit
ness for the prosecution-the injured
party. This is a copy Of the letter:
OFFICE EUREKA EVENING LEADER,
J. E. ANDERSON, Proprietor,
EUREKA, NEVADA, March 10, 1882.
Mr.. W. H. DAvENPoRT-Dear Sir: II
the case of the State vs. W. ]. Penrose
can be dropped it will meet with my ap-
proval. JAS. E. ANDERSON
Third, that it had come to his knowl-
edge since the presentment Of the indict-
ment by the Grand Jury that important
witnesses that had been relied upon by
the prosecution would be materially con-
tradicted in their testimony, by men Of
character and good standing in the com-
munity; that for this reason, also, he
could not hope to convict.
After this statement Of the case by the
attorney for the State, His Honor, Judge
Rives, asked: "Do you believe, Mr.. Dis
trict Attorney, that you will not be able to
convict the accused Of any offense against
the law under the indictment Of the
Grand Jury?" The answer was, "No,
sir; in my opinion there would be such a
conflict in the testimony that l have no
reasonable ground to believe that I could
secure a conviction before a jury"
A mol. pros. was entered.

The u. 3. Court MoneyIess.

As there are no funds on hand to defray
the expenses Of the United States Circuit
Court for the session which Is to be held
in Carson this month, United States Dis
trict Attorney Varian suggested to the Of
icio deputy OF the late Marshal Ash, A. Il.
Ricketts,, to make a telegraphic requisition
on the Department of Justice, to advance
ST., 400 for that purpose. The United States
Attorney General replied that the Con-
troller of the Treasury declines to recog-
nize such a requisition until the successor
of the late Marshal is appointed and duly
qualified. The Carson Appeal says this
will block the operations OF the United
States Circuit Court in this State for some
time, as, under the circumstances, Judge
Sawyer will not feel justified in summon
ing Jurors or witnesses.

Doubtless many readers of the Journal will
be surprised to learn that there are several
Mormon churches in Maine, and dozen or
more preachers, but this sect seems to have ta-
ken root in some of the coast towns. There are
Mormon churches, or chapels at Jonesport,
Indian River and Addison Point. The Maine
churches are under the leadership of Joseph
Smith, who visits them frequently, and is
rerered by the members AS a prophet. The
Maine Mormons do not believe in polygamv,
and denounce it as a spurious graft on the
parent church by Young and others. They
are simple, devout and earnest people, and
seem to have the Bible at their tongues end.
