The county clerk and recorder are

absence of metallic boxes in which to

but with the boxes the papers would

GOOD WISHES
FROM UTAH
Nevada Complimented on the
Outlook of its
Mines

After some years of comparative in
activity, Nevada has begun to climb
UP the ladder again. During the year
1902 the mining industry in Nevada
received an impetus that seems likely
to keep it moving for some time to
come. To the new camp of Tonopah
that has already produced so much
wealth, and that seems destined to
add great deal more wealth to the
worlds possessions, this impetus is
largely due. q"
But the renewed activity has not
been confined to Tonopah alone. 9th
er mining camps in Nevada are show
ing signs OF an awakening New dis
coveries have been made in various
sections of the State. Outside cap
ital is again being interested and the
indications are that the State is en-
tering upon an era of prosperity such
as it has not witnessed since the hal
cyon days OF Virginia City.
The Herald wishes the plucky peo-
pie of Nevada all possible success.
They deserve good fortune, for they
have labored long and earnestly. The
material for the making of success is
there, and a renewal of energy will
bring it out The day may not be so
very far distant when Nevada will
once more resume the place she for
merly held in the ranks of the mining
States.-Salt Lake Herald.

FINE ORE SPECIMENS
FROM JACKSON CREEK

The Silver State was shown some
handsome copper ore specimens today
by Peter Henry. One was a large
chunk from j. A. Nelson's mine at
Jackson Creek. 1t also carries con-
siderable gold and silver values. The
mine was discovered three or four
years ago and is being developed quite
extensively AT one time the property
was under bond for SAC, 900. The ledge
matter is forty feet wide
Mr.. Henry also brought some sam
pies from a property he owns. 1t
adjoins the Nelson mine and the ore
possesses the same characteristic. Mr.
Henry is running tunnel to tap his
ledge at a depth of rs feet
Mr.. Nelson's tunnel is in $50 feet
and he expects to get his ledge at a
depth of $50 feet The tunnel is now
believed to be near the ledge.

Coal Strike Is Ended

The fat cattle market was just about
steady. with COWS and heifers a little
easier. Stockers and feeders showed
no particular change. Hogs sold about
a dime lower than yesterday, from
$500 to s6.45, the bulk at s6.2O06.30.
The sheep market was steady.
Receipts were fair, seventy-seven
loads, 1,5OO head being reported in
up to noon. The three days supply
has been heavy, $500 heavier than
a week ago and 1900 heavier than a
year ago. In point of quality there
has been no particular change for sew
eral days.
Beef steers-The market for fat cat
tie was just about steady with yester-
day-a little stronger perhaps in
spots, but as general thing lie cattle
sold in just about yesterdays notches,
or 10@15c lower than the close of last
week. There was very fair demand
from all the dressed beef men and
with rather more favorable reports
from Eastern points prices held up
just about steady, although the trade
at no time was overly active, and ow-
ing to the late arrival Of several trains
it was well along toward noon before
any great amount of trading had been
done. Good 1900 to 1,5OO-fb beeves
sold at s44J@490, with fair 1000 to
1,25O-fb beeves at $3.SO@43O and the
common to fair warmed up and part

timely end and the supplies were Left
to the fate of time. When the Isthmian
Canal company visited the isthmus, two
years ago, it found these supplies so vast
in quantity that it could do no more than
casually examine them. 1t has been eSti-
mated-although there are few, if any,
who know exactly how much was spent
in this Way-that they might have cost
$40, 900 900. Although all of this material
is less than twenty-five years old, it is
relatively so Anticipated in design that the
commission recommended that the United
States pay no attention to it's existence
in making an offer for the purchase Of the
canal property. No contractor, the COM
mission declared, would use the stuff even
if it was presented to him. Although the
United States has not offered to buy this
junk, it will come into It's possession if it
buys the canal, for the Panama Canal
company has promised to throw it in for
good measure.
The supplies piled up on the isthmus
range from articles of crockery to loco
motives. excavators. dredges, cars and
hospitals There were 2,431 buildings Of
various sorts, including those which were
intended and used as offices, quarters for
hospitals and machine shops. The value
of the hospitals alone is nearly 100000
They are fine structures, and doubtless

for these, for they will be of value Many
