ore went through the crushers every
minute for a period Of ten hours, or
$50, 900 worth in that time. This
very rich ore is mixed with some Of
lower grade to avoid risk of loss by
theft in transit to the Salt Lake

plans and has ordered the machinery
for a plant which will be built at

A G0LD-sEEKER's TRIP.
Had Experience in Death Valley
He VIII Not Repeat.

. w 4NOb AN&ISfAN 1
Joe Lasher, an old timer in Nevada,
who has been through the Death val
ley for the past three months, passed
through town this week en- route to
Laramie, where his son resides and
IS a wealthy oil man, says the Caliente
Progress.
The old prospector says this is his
last trip, as it came near being his
last venture ON this sphere. He
went north into the bad lands 100
miles and struck a magnificent ledge
Of free gold, probably the same that
has been located on by Morton and
Sykes and Nels Fisher, Of sparkling
white quartz which runs northwest
erly and southeasterly across the
valley, Jagged and rejecting the suns
rays for miles distant. He started
with what be thought was an abund-
ant supply Of water and provisions,
four burros and a complete outfit,
having been staked by his son.
He returned minus burros, worn to
a shadow with lighting standstorms
and thirst, his provisions left some
where on the desert, barely able to
see and nearly deaf from exposure
to storm and the disasters which
overlook him. All through, however,
he chung to a buckskin sack Of ore
which is half gold.
The quartz is stuck in pieces Of
gold rather than the gold in the
quartz, and he says he has located
four claims on a two foot vein of this
ore. He found a cavern in the rocks
and went inside to escape the torrit
RAYS of the sun and found that thu
cave had been cut by the hand 0
man instead Of natures handiwork
and after examining it for abou
fifty feet, found that at some tim
in the dim past a two foot ledge {
the rich ore had been discovered an
ore to this extent extracted.
He found inside the ave or tunn,
two stone hammers bound to woode
handles with deer or horse hide;
number Of arrowheads and sever
stone c~alabashes, which led him
believe that the work had been dol
at a very distant date, and perhaI
before the dread Death valley hs
been entirely barren. These |
brought back with him in addition
the gold, which latter he values
about $500.
He proposes to organize a par
to 60 in aud take up all the groul
possible and then retire on his la
rels after W. fifty years of bait
with Dame Fortune in the uneqt
struggle for wealth.

Bill to Establish Four Permanent
Military Camp Sites Gives House
Committee PerpIexinx Problem.
REPUBLIC SPECIAL.

REPUBLIC SPECIAL.
Washington, Feb. Zone Of the most
important matters placed before the pres
ent Congress by the War Department is
the selection n establishment of four or
more permanent military camp sites, to be
used for the assembling and ~maneuvering
of the troops of the regular army and
national guard. The general proposition
Is conceded to be n of much merit. but
the number Of patriotic citizens who are
DANGEROUSLY willing to sacrifice their real
estate holdings to the Government for this
purpose. and their vigorous efforts to in
0uce Congress TO appropriate large sums
OF money to compensate them therefor,
presents a most perDleXing problem, with
which the House Committee on Military
Affairs Is now wrestling.
A score or more of rites have been pro-
posed and bills looking toward the selec-
ton of each OF these have been introduced
by as many members on behalf of their
respective constituents. All these bills
have been referred to the committee. and
several lays already have been spent nv
1t In listening to addresses from citizens
OF almost every State of the Union for or
against one or more of the many sites
that have been proposed. To-day Califor-
mia had the right of way. There the con-
test seems to have narrowed down to three
propositions. each involving the purchase
by the Government of a tract of fand con-
