And now a big whiskey trust
has been formed. We are told
that the trust has a million bar
rels of whiskey on hand now
and will contine the annual pro
duct to Is, 100000 gallons. For
tunately there is no Immediate
danger of a whiskey famine. A
million barrels on hand is equal
to a per capita supply of about
one SEVENTEEN of a barrel. It is
true that this is a rather limited
supply for this season of the
year when the grip is raging,
but it is understood that dealers
have quite heavy stocks on hand

The Commodore is now being
unwatered, in addition to the
pumps a big 700 gallon bailer
being employed in the work.
The mine will be clear of water
in two weeks, and by the middle
of March q good force of men
should find employment at this
property.
The output Of the Roberts
mine this year will be about 60,
600 tons, somewhat more than
was anticipated earlier this win
ter. THE American Steel & Wire
company has purchased IS 600
tons of Roberts ore. Nearly as
much will be delivered to other
concerns.
Supt. Lawson proposes a new
departure in mining operations at
the Auburn. the using of a steam
shovel in the milling pit at that
property. The success of this
innovation in mining methods
will be watched with interest.
Gulbranson Bros, who have
the contract for stripping the
Duluth mine, Biwabik, has a
large crew employed and is do
ing good work this winter.
A small force of men has this
week been put on at the Norman,

ing for active work at that prop.
erty.
Air is now furnished to the
Zenith and Savoy mines by a 4
inch pipe from the Pioneer mine.
The pipe line is one and one.
quarter mile long.
1t is said that fully 80 per cent
of the ore that will be required
by the furnaces this year has
already been provided for.
The Cincinnati mine, at Biwa.

Nye County Desert Land.

Victor Barnd gives the following
description Of the Hot Creek region,
Nye County:
AThe country is part of the great
desert and is made up, typographical
ly speaking, by mountain ranges and
enclosed valleys trending north and
south. The valleys or falls in the
Great Basin are mixture of alkali
beds and desert. One valley near us
is 125 miles long and from Is to 20
miles wide. The famous death valley
is 30 miles distant. .
"Near us there is an alkali flat %
miles long by Is miles wide, which is
as level as the surface of a lake and
the smooth surface is unbroken by so
much as blade of grass or a grain of
sand. Fifty miles from the valley is
Mt. Whitney, the highest elevation in
the United States. So that in close
proximity we have the two extremes
of altitude in the United States.
@The weather is extremely hot in
summer, and. cold in winter. A tenn
,peratpre Of 100 degrees in the shade
is not uncommon, Ny man oyer at
the place where we are prospecting,
writes that be worked one day when
the THERMOMETERS registered 123 de-
grees in the shade"

A Lucky Accident.

About as lucky an accident as We
have heard of for some time, occurred
to Charley Parker the other day down
in Ruby valley. He was on his way
to Ely with big load of grain and
merchandise, including 1000 pounds
OF giant powder. There was a grade
on the road where the last team to
precede him had become stuck and
left big hole that had been filled
up with loose dirt. and when his lead
wagon struck the treacherous spot,
over it went and grain sacks and
powder boxes were scattered for
seventy-five feet down the hill. just
why that powder didn't go. off is a
mystery. We are confident that if
we had been driving that team, we
would now be sticking type on the
@Hades Sizzler." But be that AS it
may, Mr.. Parker rolled in here last
Monday, mules, powder and all, ap.
parently unconcerned over his mar
row escape from sudden translation
to the world beyond.-White Pine

Governor Sadler and Controller
Davis appeared before the Washoe
county board OF equalization Mon
day. The Gazette gives the following
account Of what took place:
After preliminary conversation in
which the State officers explained
the object of their visit, Governor
Sadler called for a number of as.
sessment figures. The first of these
was the Southern Pacific railroad,
which is assessed at $4,000 per mile.
He thought that it should be assessed
at at least $4,000 per mile. He also
called the attention of the Board to
the assessment Of the Washoe County
Bank, which is assessed at $4,000
and according to their sworn state.
ment have assets amounting to
about S1,000,000. The Nevada Bank.
assessed at $4,000 is in the same
boat and should be raised proportion
ately. The Reno Water, Land g.
Light Co., assessed at S52,56O, asked
$4,000 for thoir property recently.
He also requested the Assessor to
look INTO the matter of taxing the
Pullman Palace Car Co., who operate
many cars here but are not assessed
one cent. Governor Sadler said that
while Washoe county was ahead of
all but one in the State in the matter
OF assessments, but even admitting
that, the assessment was not more
than one-half Of its full cash value.
AS an officer of the State and an OBJ
legation placed on him by the last
Legislature, he was compelled to ask
that property be taxed at it's full
cash value as required by the stat
utes. ...s
The Commissioners promised to
consider the matter.

One Wife Surely Enough.

Margherita ArIina Hamm, the we'll
known traveller and author, called
when in China upon the wife, or
rather the wives of great mandarin.
Her visit partook rather of the nature
OF festival, 80 novel was the exper.
fence to the Chinese women, whose
lives are passed almost entirely with
in the walls Of their yamen. They
examined her clothing and were part
ly pleased and partly astonished at it.
The we're shocked by her shoes and
especially by the fact that her feet
we're not confined by bindings.
Finally one of them said through
an interpreter:
"You can walk and run us well as a
MANI"
@Why, certainly"
sand can you ride a pony as we'll as
man."
"Of course"
@Tien you must be as strong as
most men,"
ayes, / think 1 am"
"fou would not let q man beat
you, not even your own husband,
would your"
"Not at ALL"
The Chinese woman paused, laagh-
ed, and then said:
"Now l understand why foreigners
never take more than one wife. They
are afraid too."--Philsdelphia Post,

In the issue Of September 18th
there appeared an item stating that a
Mormon preacher named Healey
has been travelling through the north.
ern part Of the county solemnizing
marriages and further stating that he
had no authority under the law to do
so. 1t now appears that Rev. Thomas
Daley, minister of the re organized
Church OF Jesus Christ OF the Latter
Day Saints, claims that he is the man
referred to. The law clearly states
that a minister must have a license
and that License must be shown. to
the clerk and his name recorded in
the county where he performs a mar
rage ceremony. At the time this
item was published Rev. Healey's Ii
cense was not recorded in this conn
ty. The editor of the INDEPENDENT
was SO informed by the clerk and also
looked up the record for himself.
Rev. Daley was licensed in Douglas
county i'll 1891, by Judge Rising, but
failed to record his license in this
county as the law directs. Failing to
do his duty. the INDEPENDENT had
right to rely upon the record. If his
failure to do his duty has been the
innocent cause OF the INDEPENDENT
inluring him in any way, it very
much regrets it.
