4 Big Cave i'm the Robust.

The NEWS scribe made another trip
up to the Robust mine yesterday morn.
ing in company with p c. Weber, to
view the cave discovered there last
Monday It was encountered in the
main drift on the 70.foot level at point
about so feet from the shaft. At first
sight 1t appeared to be only a small
chamber, but narrow erevice, just big
enough to crawl through, led up into
another chamber above, which proved
TO extend almost to the surface. An
opening has been nude on the hillside
within l5 feet OF the shaft-house, and
one can now climb down through thu
cave from the surface to the 70-foot
level.
Tho cave IA fully 200 TT. long, and 10
feet wi le in the wi lest place. Like the
other caves that have been found in
this mine, its walls are covered with a
crust of snow white lime crystals as del
icate frost, while an occasional. stall
lctlt, ha 20 from the ceiling like au
icicle. The beauties of the cave will be
soon destroyed, however, as the walls
are lined with ore of high grade.
The discovery OF this cave Is especial
ly valuable to the company for the rea-
son that it obviates the necessity ol
m king any further air connection be.
tween the surface and the workings be
low.
Considerable development work has
been done In the mine since our lasi
visit. The winze on the rich strike
which we mentioned last week, Is nov
down 10 feet aud nice pile OF the ore
is on the dump. The BIN Is FUN of good
ore and enough is blocked out In the
mine to keep the mill running for sev
er.l months. Manager Davis Is expect
oil buck from Salt Lake this week, with
th1 rop plirs for the pulverlzer, when th'
mill will DO started Immediately.

THE GovEaNoRsHlP CONTEST
Mcmillan Leads by Seventeen
Votes.

Tho Supreme Court last Monday rem
dered its decision on the ballots thus
far objected to by both sides in the GU
bernltorial contest. OF the 355 ballots
objected to by McMillan's attorneys, SO
objections were sustained. OF the 2Is
objections made by Sadler's attorneys,
only IS we're sustained. Considering
Sadler's original majority Of %, Nc
MILAN Is now l6 in the lead.
rrhe decision, as a matter OF course,
says the Carson News, indicates that
many Of the objections taken by coun
sci for respective parties we're IN opinion
of the Court most trivial and unworthy
of serious consideration. The Court has
definitely decided that the writing of
the words yes or mo- after the
county consolidation line upon the bal
lot is IA distinguishing mark sufficiently
bad to invalidate the ballot. The Court
has also decided that other writing up
on the ballot placed there Intentionally
by the voter should also invaiidate the
ballot. Ia announcing the opinion of
the Court Justiee Massey declared that
the possible intention OF the voter had
formed prominent factor In their de-
lberatiOns. Where the intention Of the
voter seemed to be unquestloned as to
his desire TO vote for a particular can
didate, that ballot was not rejected on
account Of some possible accidental mis-
take IN marking the ballot. Where a
bad erasure was shown upon the ballot,
clearly dishguring it, the Court decided
II was sufficiently distinguishing 10 in-
validate the ballot.
ut was also the opinion OF the Court
that where two candidates for a partl-
cular Office had been voted for and the
instruction clearly suggested that only
one should be elected and voted for, that
a cross placed opposite the names OF
two candi lates was not distinguishing
mark and would not invalidate the bal
lot.
After the decision was announced, the
case was resumed and 1t now remains
for Gov. Sadler TO produce sufficient
faulty ballots from Lyon, Douglas,
storey and Nashoe counties to over
come McMillan's lea j. The Gazette OF
Monday says:
"LATER-Lyon is completed and
Douglas all but East Fork. Mcmillan
gained one net making him seventeen
ahead thus far.
