A project is now on foot to run a
drain tunnel from point below
the Vulcan ground in American
Ravine, to the Independent mine.
This will drain all the mines on
this lode, the Vulcan, Del Rae, Lam
sac. Northern Belle, Oest and indie
pendent. 1t will strike the lnde-
pendent at a depth of about l60
feet below water level, and the Oest
about 200 feet below water level.
There is to be no company formed
but the parties interested in the
mines to be drained will undertake
the work. This project, if carried
out. will be of great benefit to the
camp, and would probably develop
some good mines. The Oest has a
good indication of gold ledge be-
low water level, while other mines
are known to contain large bodies
of low grade silver ore, and when
the time comes that we shall again
have free coinage of silver these
mines will all be actively worked
and much prospecting be done in
new ground. Silver City will then
be one of the liveliest camps in the
State.
This county sustained quite a
loss in the burning of the Eureka
mill. Last year that property was
assessed at $4,000. This year it
is $4,000. There is a large body
of tailings at this place, but | be-
lieve it has not yet been decided
what course topursue to work them.
For further particulars | respect
fully refer you to the enclosed sta
tistical reports.
Yours truly,

Assessor of Lyon County.

and there are fully lU,UOO more
sheep in the county now than there
were last year,
1t has been demonstrated that
sugar beets can be raised in all ag-
ricultural sections of the county
in great abundance and of superior
quality.
There are over 10000 apple trees
in the county, and many other
fruit trees adapted to this climate,
such as peach, apricot, plum, etc,
which shows that the Embarrassing
industry is not being overlooked.
The horse-raising industry is of
considerable Importance, and has
been one of the paying engage
ments of the farmers of the county,
but the value of this kind of stock
has fallen considerably in the last
year. There is a movement on foot
however, among the farmers to ship
their horses to the eastern market,
where they have reason to believe
they will get better prices.
New roads are being opened for
the benefit of the public, and it
will not be long before the road
system will be in as good condit-
ion, if not better, than in any
county in the State.
Smith Valley is a rich agricul-
tural country, producing large
quantities of hay, and cannot be
beat in the production of all kinds
of cerials, wheat in particular. A.
II. Hawley, of this valley, took the
first prize at the Worlds Fair at
New Orleans for wheat raised on
his farm. The farms of this val
ley have good improvements, and
are mostly all under a high state
of cultivation. The most expert
enced stockmen in the State assert
that the valleys of this county are
the best in the State in which to
winter stock and for the feeding Of
beef cattle and sheep.
MINING.
The mining interests of the coun-
ty are not in a very fourishing
condition, owing principally to the
heavy discount on silver. In Day
ton the only mill running is the
Woodwork, which is cleaning up
the last Of a deposit of tailings
which it has been working on for
twelve or fourteen years past.
There are some prospects that
there may be a revival of mining
operations in Sutro through the
carrying out of the scheme to take
rock from the Comstock mines out
through the Sutro Tunnel and mill
ing it on the Carson river in the
vicinity of Dayton and Sutro, but
it will probably be some time be-
fore this matter takes shape. In
the mean time a small force of men
is kept at work repairing and keep
ing the tunnel in repair and carry
ing out waste rock from some Of
the mines connected with the tun-
mel. A understanding, coke
burning engine was recently put in
the tunnel to take the place of the
mules that were used for hauling.
The little machine handles train
of "a cars and is doing the work
cheaper than it was done before.
Silver City is the most promising
mining camp in the county. The
formation of this mineral region is
peculiar There are two main
lodges running north and south
from a mile to mile and a half
apart. These leads are silver pro-
ducers, while in between them near
ly all the small lodges are gold pro-
ducers for quite a distance down,
except spur that runs down from
the Silver Hill, upon which are To-
Gated the St. Louis, Emigrant, Re-
gent, Cherokee, Dayton, Kossuth
and an endless number of smaller
mines following on down through

EACH CONFIDENT OF SUCCESS.

What Is Doing at the Different Head
quarters Claims Of Partisans aud Rea-
sons for Same Carlisle Explains His
Failure to Register Notes of the
Canvass.
NEW YoRK, Oct 31.-The last week Of
the campaign for the Democrats finds
Senator German, Mr.. Whitney. Mr.
Croker, Edward Murphy, ir., and Lieut..
Gov. Sheehan with their heads very close
together.
Mr.. Murphy was hurt in q carriage ac-
cident at Troy yesterday, but he was at
the Hoffman House in the evening con
sulting with Mr.. Sheehan The Demo-
Gratis are especially delighted to find the
Maryland Senator in such close conmun-
ion with his old friend Mr. Whitney and
Mr.. Croker and the leaders of the State
machine. This fact more than any other
has contributed to the confidence Of the
betting men that Mr.. Cleveland is to
carry New York State.
The gentlemen in charge of the cam
paign said that they were confident of
Mr. Clevelands election, but, for all
that, they would not relax their efforts,
and that they proposed during the week
at hand to put in their best licks.
The Republican fighters, National and
State, had all sorts of delegations visiting
them in the afternoon and evening. Most
of the committeeman are in town, and
most of them will remain on the scene
until after election The National Com
mitteemen were the most confident lot of
citizens you ever met in @ national fight
As has already been said if they are
| bluntng, they are daudies at the bust
ness.
They emphatically declare that Harri-
son will win. They base most of their
arguments on the figures received from
: the different States, and from what they
say is the trend among business men,
who write that they are opposed to any
change in the Administration at this
time.
In view of the claims at both head
! quarters it is difficult to attempt any
prophesying. The betting in New York
State is entirely in favor of the Demo
/, Gratis. The offers are still even on the
general result There was a whisper
! last night that the betting men will see
some fireworks this week.
There is a good deal Of interesting, if
not actually valuable, figuring among

officers of either of the National Com
mittees have not yet authorized any Ia
bic showing their claims, but the follow
ing figures have been privately approved
by some of the Republican officers and
come as near as possible at this time tC

of these figures is to show how RepubH

a New Find of the Metal In the Eclipse
Mine Causes a Sensation.
DENVER. Col, Oct. 31.-The past week
has been surprising one in the Cripple
Creek gold camp, and at least one big
discovery has been made. The camp is
all excitement over the wonderful strike
made in the Eclipse mine yesterday.
The Eclipse is located in Requa Gulch,
and has been a regular shipper for the
past two months, averaging about a car
load a week. The returns from these
shipments have averaged over S1OO "A
ton, but there was nothing in the char
acter OF the ore to prepare the men who
were taking it out Tor the wonderful stuff
that was uncovered yesterday.
At "A depth OF 80 feet a vein of white
tale and crystalized quartz was encoun-
tered, the vein apparently being about
four feet in width. The ore is full OF
rusty gold, some of it being in large
cubes, which even old miners pronounce
the most wonderful display Of free gold
they ever saw.
There is much to indicate that this
will be what expert mining men have
been claiming all aloug-the greatest
gold camp in the world. There are now
over 30 shipping mines, and the advent
of the railroad will double the number.

THREE killer. SEVERAL HURT,
The Chimney Of Potomac River Steam
boat Blown on.

WASHINGTON Oct. 31--The steam
chimney of the steamboat Wakefield, be-
longing to the Potomac River Steamboat
company, blew off at IL o'clock vest erday
morning, and killed three men, probably
four, and more or less seriously injured
three others. The steamer was on the
return trip to Washington and when of
Maryland Point, about 90 miles down
the river, the accident occurred
Alexander Tolman and James johnson,
colored fremen, were instantly killed by
flying fragments, and William Clark, a
colored bootblack, was blown off the boat
by the shock and drowned. Another col
ored man is missing, and it is believed
he met the fate of the bootblack
e. l.. Gordon, white assistant en-
gineer, was badly bruised about the head
and arms. He was brought to his home
in Alexandria. William Motley and
William Carney, colored deck hands,
were badly scalded and otherwise injured.
They were brought to Washington and
are now at Providence hospital.
The Wakefield was only slightly dam
aged, and Immediately after the accident
was towed to landing at Quautico,
about 40 miles from Washington. She
was used principally as a freight boat,
stopping at all the Potomac river land
ings for distance of So miles down, but
occasionally transported passengers.
