State Line Mining District.

Ma. EDrToR,--A few days ago we visited
the State Line mining district, and were 30
surprised to find such a wonderful showing
there that We feel disposed to write you a
word in regard to it,
Much has been said and written Of the
mines at DeLamAr. but we think it only a
question Of time when the output from the
State Line mining district will equal. if not
excel that Of DeLamar. number Of out
fits are working there and prospectors are
arriving daily. Long before old SOL has
shown his face above the peaks OF the
mountains, can be seen men with pick and
hammer climbing over the mountain sides
and carefully searching for the precious
metals
Excitement is running high over the dis
covery Of good showing Of free gold in the
Rocky Mountain claim owned by the Rice
brothers. Two Of the boys are now at work
and have already found gold in paying
quantities Experienced miners have Wis.
tied this property and report a true assure
vein Of ore.
Mr.. Ed. Prudential who is working the
Spur, is getting out some excellent ore. He
has gone down about seventy feet and cross.
cut perhaps about thirty feet. The ophir is
being worked and shows much good ore.
They expect to make good shipment in a
few days.
Millions of money is here only waiting de-
velopment This district offers better in
ducements than any mining district We have
visited. Wood and water are both plenti-
full, two of the great essentials in a mining
camp. A good TOWNSHIP can be secured and
all that is necessary to make State Line one
of the best camps in the West is capital,
pluck aud silver l6 to l.

The Straddle.

The Reno Gazette has the following good
editorial on the straddle the Republican
State conventions have made on the money
question In connection with the Mckinley
nomination for the presidency;
"For Mckinley and against silver in the
East; for silver and in the favor of Mckinley
in the West; for goldbug and monometal-
lism in the East; for bimettallism and a
single standard man in the West. This is
the position Of the Republican party, il all
signs are to be believed thus far. If this
don't beat the 10 puzzle, the manipulations
Of japanese juggler or the mysterious
feats of an East Indian snake charmer, we
are fooled, or else during the absence Of
our esteemed senior the additional response
bilites have ratified us, or we have become
dazed with the straddlng resolutions adopt.
ed by the late Republican conventions held
in various states, or we are experiencing q
prsmonition of the jim jams.

The Breyfogle.

The Johnnie mine, which is situated in
Nye Co., New, ia now giving work to fifty
men, says Mr.. Higgins in the Salt Lake
Tribune. This is thought to be the old lost
Breyfogle, about which. with its numerous
tales OF wealth, we have heard SO much.
The following is the history of the Brey-
fogle;
Away back in the early dawn Of Califor.
MAS golden era, man named Breyfogle,
hailing from San Francisco, discovered by
chance some rock Of fabulous value in what
is Nye county, New. He fastened home
and speedily organized a party to explore
and locate the property Before they ar
rived at the reported mine the party was
oyertaken by band OF Indians, who killed
some and wounded others. Breyfogle es.
capped with his life, but in the encounter
was injured by blow on the head by well
thrown tomahawk. What was left of the
fatsd party returned. half dead, to Cali,
fornia, and soon another expedition started
for the bonanza under Breyfogles guidance.
But when they had proceeded several day,
on the journey the guide became suddenly
insane and led the prospectors estray. Afte,
several days of random search, the bafiied
men returned to the coast, and tho hunt
was not again renewed. Those acquainted
with the district. however, belisve that thu
present Johnnie is the lest Brsyfogls mine
