For the past month report has been
current hereabouts, says the Hawthorne
Bulletin, that the Walker river reserva-
tion was about to be thrown open to
white settlers and prospectors. To learn
the truth the editor Of this paper wrote
to Nevada's United States Senators and
those gentlemen furnish the information
that, 1.-THE Walker river reservation was
made subject to allotment by the last
Congress. An appropriation for allot-
ment and survey was made at the last
session. The reservation will not be
thrown open until survey has been
made and allotments in severalty have
been made to the Indians. The Depart
ment is just about proceeding to take
action in the matter. After the survey
and allotments have been made a proc
lamation will be issued by the President
stating the terms on which the reserva-
tion will be thrown open to settlement
1t will probably be six months before

Invention OF .. II. Guthrie Great I'm
provement over Old styles.
From the winnemucca Standard.
s. r. Guthrie Of this place has invented
a new kind Of hay derrick which, no
doubt, will take the place of all others in
present use as 1t eliminates all the danger
and delay in erecting the old styles. 1t
is built in such way that it can be put
on any wagon gear, just the same as q
wagon bed, and is no wider and can be
taken through any gate that a wagon
can 20 through. The mast is 30 con-
structed that it can be lowered and
raised with very little trouble. 1t is
never necessary to take it from the
wagon and il is impossible for the der
rick mast to fall from the wagon. 1t is
as strong and durable as any derrick and
all the appliances used in the operation
of the machine are attached TO the frame
work. 1t presents very neat appear
ance, resembling a hook and ladder
truck.
Mr.. Guthrie has lately built one OF his
newly invented derricks for A. F. Trous-
dale and it will be used by the latter this
Summer in stacking hay on his ranch

great improvement on the old styles Of

desire to compliment the Tonopah
Miner. Amid the cloud of reports Of
new strikes and fabulous wealth of the
mines of its section which fill the air
everywhere, it's accounts thereof are far
the most reasonable and conservative.
Mr.. L. l.. Oddie. the leading superin-
tendent over the work performed at
Tonopah, in his interviews as published,
seems also fair and conservative, giving
the impression that he values his word
and honor. / was mining editor of the
Virginia Enterprise for few years, and
know what it is to be pressed for
"big write-up" by everybody who may
have few shares of stock to sell. That
Tonopah has great merit as a mining
camp, it is difficult to doubt, because it
has population of over A 900 now. and
valuable machinery is being installed
and large acres of ore blocked out,
which will be reduced in time. But, as
stated by the Pacific Coast Miner many
months ago, "the tariff between the
mine and the mint is too great" This
can only mean that it costs too much to
handle the ore now. But by the time
economical methods are introduced, the
great bulk of the ore blocked out will
be brought within the profitable line of
reduction. / don't know what is the
aggregate capitalization of all the cor
porations operating in the camp, but it
is something tremendous; several are
capitalized at over q million dollars.
and few at less than half million. No
one could possibly afford to work the
mines for the surplus over and above
expenses. In such emergency the
owner must resort to working" the
public or pocket bis loss. This condi-
tion will tend TO greatly retard legiti-
mate mining operations in the camp, as
the several arrangements must copfine
their operations more to the object of
making showing" than to the reduc-
ton of ores and taking down the profits.
The profits over and above expenses
cannot satisfy the owners; it cannot
pay interest on the capital invested
therefore, something must be done to
unload the burden. But what will the
successor in interest and grantee do?
He will find himself in still worse
position and he will try to pass his
burden around. and this system will be
kept up until the collapse, which is in
evitable in all booms. The foregoing
remarks are of general application, and
not intended for any meritorious enter
prise operating properties worth their
capitalization.

The demonstration that greeted the

The shout was caught up by the peo-

REGRETS CANADA LIES AT THE
SIDE OF THE UNITED STATES.
CRASHING AND POWERFUL
Dominion Premier Says UngracefuI
Things About the Great American
Nation-Would Like to Have
Treaty-Making Powers-No Balk
About the Withdrawal.

Ottawa, Ont, Oct. 24.-During the
debate in the house on the Alaskan
award, several speeches were made
severely criticizing Lord Alverstone.
One member approved the decision as
to the strip of land along the coast
but disapproved Lord Alverstone's de-
cision respecting the islands in the
Portland channel.
Premier Laurier said that in his
own opinion Canada had a good case
but there were no doubt arguments on
both sides. He regretted that Canada
did not have treaty-making powers
and also regretted having to live
alongside grasping and powerful
nation like the United States. He sug.
gested the building of all Canadian
railways to the Yukon gold fields.
In regard to the opposition mem
bers who advised the government
withdrawing after the king had rati-
fled the treaty, the premier said they
should think seriously of what that
meant. Suppose the United States
would have placed the American flag
over the disputed territory, then Can
ada would have had to withdraw in
shame or go to war.
