GOlDFIfLD ORE
The Richness of This Camp Is
Something Marvellous

The Combination mine continues to
pursue the even tenor of its way
maintaining regular shipments of high

owners.

HE SHfBA NINE
Cheerful Report ty An East
ern Correspondent

A correspondent of the Mining
World, Chicago, who has been studying
conditions in Humboldt county. Me-
vada, says of the Sheba mines and
mill, controlled by Justice Bartch. Gov.
Wells and their associates:
"The millman at the Sheba mine
is concentrating their ore at SO cents
per ton. One can readily see why the
future holds a golden era for the
company which opens large bodies Of
low-grade ore. Part of the Bonanza
ore of the Sheba was hauled hundreds
of miles by team to Sacramento,
Cal. Today the railroad hauls it for
"a so.
In the palmy days or the Sheba
its owners were rewarded By a $780,
600 output Silver went down and for
.rears the Bononza mine was idle until
this company cleaned out the old tun-
nels and slopes and began an active
sanpaign of development
There are now in the mill many
tons of rich concentrates sacked ready
for shipment. One of the finest water
lights in this part of Nevada is on
the company's property. The climate is
so mild that work can be Prosecuted
The year around. Adjoining the Sheba
is the famous DeSota. which produced
in 5000 feet of developing over Ss,v00,-
900. and all above water level. Men
are now at work and an active cam
paign is planned to open up other
shoots that are sure to lie under Old
star peak"
OF the properties of the Morrison
Mining Company also controlled by
Salt Lake parties, 1t Is wIitten by the
same correspondent: "The veins run
aoIth and south and are in clay states.
resembling greatly some formation of
she mother lode in California, only the
California mines produce gold and
these veins gold and silver. The ore
occurs in kidneys, and at times ex-
tfemely rich. From one lense there
was shipped sS5,0OO worth of ore."

ASSAULTS A PRIEST
Mexican Girl Creates a Scene
in Los Angeles

Los Angeles. July IA well dressed
handsome young Mexican woman en-
tered the historic plaza church yester-
day morning during early mass and
advancing to the altar attacked one of
the priests viciously, at the same time
screaming at the top of her voice. The
attack almost caused a panic among
the worshiDpeys. but when it was seen
that the woman was violently insane
several male members of the congre-
CATION assisted the priests In controll-
ing her.
The police ambulance was summoned
and she was taken to the receiving
hospital where she became SO violent
that she had to be tied. Until tonight
II waa not known who she was. but
1t was finally learned that she is Miss
Jennie Contreras. She left her home
i'm Mexico several months ago, having
been induced to come here by a Mex
lean family. who held out to her prom
lses of steady employment. Being un-
familiar with the customes of the coun-
try she could not secu.e a position and
finally began to want for food.
For two days she had had nothing 10
eat and as a result of brooding over
her troubles her reason became de-
.hroned. Wealthy Mexican families
here have taken charge of her and she
will be sent back to her relatives In
Mexico. The doctors say she is hope

TROUBLES OF ShEEPMEN
Antelope Wool Growers As
SOCidtiOn Takes Action

The troubles of the sheep men in
Oregon continue undated. says the
Reno Journal There is scarcely a
day that eports ase not received stat
ing that sheep are being found dead
on the ranges. Somes of them are
poisoned. whileo theirs are killed.
There is apparently no clew to the
parties guilty of these depredatiuns.
The Antelope Wool Growers sssocit-
tion has finally taken hold OF the
matter, and at a meeting held last
Saturday it was decided to offer n re-
ward of $500 for the arrest and convic-
ton of any pal ty or parties guilty
of the deeds. Some time ago the State
of Oregon offered a reward of 800 for
a similar purpose. 1t is still in effect.
1t appears that the center of the trou
bic is in Lake county. +ust over the
Nevada line. For some tine past the
sheep and cattle men have been en-
gagged in an argument as to the re-
spective tights on tie ranges. In the
Blue mountains the same trouble is
now on. At the association meeting a
committee consistin. of ID. McAnvie,
and IL. c. Hooper, prominent sheep
men Wee appointed to visit the Blue
mountains. consult with the stock men
and endeavor to fix lines for the sum-
mer range.
There was large attendance at the
meeting and the reward offered was
subscribed without the least trouble.
Tie motion offering the reward stated
that the object was for info nation
leading to the arrest ard conviction of
any person Or persons guilty of shoot
ing, killing of manning any member
of the above association or any en-
ploye of such member while engaged
in their duty in attendance on the
he. d of member or guilty of killing,
manning or otherwise unlawfully de-
stroying the sheep of a member"
YesteI day another meeting of tie
sheep men was held. At that time an
other organization to be known as the
sheep and Wool Growers Associa-
ton" was formed.

TARPEY Is UNYIELDING

But he was wrong. Tarpey refused
to break the slate He had placed the
honors in the north and there they
must remain. Argument and protest
were wasted. AS a result the Los An
geles delegates-in fact, all of those
who had iourneyed here from south of
Tehachapa-ase roaring mad. Joined
with MCGEE and Mooser, the McNab
men of the delegation, they constitute a
formidable opposition to Tarpey's
forces and Hearst would be out several
votes tonight if these delegates could
east aside their conscience and bolt in
structions. AS it is they may yet make
trouble for Tarpey.
Isidore Dockweller of Los Angeles
arrived here in time to see the turning
down of Mccarthy. He is beside him
self with joy. The Los Angelenos are
getting sample of the Tarpey-and,
incidentally. the Hearst--method, he
says. and he trusts they win not for

The Ohio Delegation Comes
Out Strong for the
New Yorker
TOMORROW WILL TELL IALE
The California DsIee alton n the
virge Of Revolution Against
Hearst's Manager Tarpey

st. Louis, July THE indications at
the present time are that Parker will
be nominated, but only after a des-
perate conflict His opponents claim
to hold more than one-third of the
votes and say they will deadlock the
convention. They will fight the New
Yo ker to the last ditch
Not only will the Parker faction
name the head of the ticket, but it
will designate the candidate for the
Vice Presidency, dictate the platform
and assume fun control Of the party to
the exclusion of the Bryan Hearst ele-
ments. Parker may be nominated on
the first ballot if he continues TO gain
adaerents today
On the other hand those who oppose
Parker claim that they have 424 dele
gates pledged against the New Yorker
This, however, is strongly denied by
Pafkers managers.
The Ohio delegation, it is understood,
adopted resolutions favorable to Pa k
er. There is also a fight on in the
California delegation and while they
were instructed for Hearst. it is doubt
full if they will hold together.
Illinois is also weakening and a
large proposition of the delegation are
now shouting fer Parker.
1t is the same with several other
States. They see how things are
drifting and do not propose to get left
out in the cold, and naturally are de-
sirous of getting a coed seat on the
band wagon,
All day long yesterday the anti
Parker men tried to offer candida e
who would unite a third of the dele
gates. so as to have a rallying point
when plinentary ballots shall have
been cast for native sons" The i'm
possibility of uniting has been made
manifest, and the most jealous oppo-
nents of Parker concede his nomination
not later than the second ballot.
The Parker opposition was greatly
disturbed at the action of Pennsyl-
vania- They were not instructed and
if they could have been secured 70
any other candidate it would have been
a serious blow to the Parker interests.

PLATFORM PARKER FAvoRs

PLATFORM PARKER FAyORS
1t is said that the platform drawn up
by John sharp Williams Of Mississippi
is acceptable to the Parker men. Some
of its main features are as follows:
we favor economy In the federal
administration and to that end the
cutting of of all unnecessary and inn
perlalistie expendltures-the former as
soon as possible after our accession to
power and the latter gradually, but
surely and safely.
I'VE favor the nomination and elec-
tion of a President trained in the ways
of the constitution who has set the
face sternly agains- executive usurpa-
ton of legislative and judicial func-
tions. whether that usurpation be veil
ed under the guise of executive con-
struction of existing laws or whether
to take refuge i'm the tysants plea of
necessity or superior wisdom.
I'VE favor a wise, conservative and
business-like revision and reduction of
the tariff by friends of the masses and
OF the commonwealth and not by
friends of it's abuses, its extortions and
its discrimination. keeping in view the
ultimate end of equality of burdens
and equality of opportunities and the
constitutional purpose OF raising reve-
nue. by taxation.

Omaha, Neb., Aug. 29.-With a view
to preventing the damaging forest
fires that rage frequently in the north
west the government and the Forestry,
Fishing and Game association of
America will cooperate in the testing
of a scheme of wireless telegraphy.
Officials having the promotion of the
plan il? hand predict that it will prove
efficacious. Experiment stations to
test the wireless telegraphy plan will
be installed in Oregon, Washington
and Montana.
The heat of fire at pne station
sets in motion the devices that flash
the signal and LOCATION. Fires in this
way may be checked in their inclpi-
ency. The cost Of the stations and
their maintainence Is not so great as
might seem at first thought The re-
cording instruments are expensive
but the outlay practically ends with
their installation. Compared to the
saving the system will work the ex-

SEPTEMBER PROMISES
POOR IN DIVIDENDS

New York, Aug. 29.-On the basis
those vet to come, September prom
ises. according to the Journal Of Com
merce, to make an unusually poor
showing in the matter Of industrial
dividends. The amount will be the
smallest for any month in years, ag-
gregating only $s,4O9,771. This COM
pares with $14,422,465 in August,
which previously was the smallest
amount disbursed in any one month
since the opening Of the year. This
years September total compares with
s17,27s,4O3 in 1908 and $16,943.967
in 1902. Part of the falling off shown
in the comparisons is due to the dis
continuance Of one Industrial pay
ment, amounting to $4,000, 900, which
figured in the returns Of September
last year.

FARMERS treasured
No Danger, Says Bolley, In Flowing
Under Their Rusted Straw.

Special to The Journal.
Fergus Falls, Mimi, Aug. 2s.-Farmers
have been IN doubt as to whether the
blowing under of the rusted straw would
leave infection In the soil and cause rust
next year. but letter from Professor Boil
ley OF the Fargo Agricultural college states
that there is no danger. Professor Boley
says:
There Is no reason to believe that rust
upon the straw Of the present crop,
plowed under. will increase the possibility
of rust next year. Rust comes upon a
crop because Of special weather and soil
conditions, which favor the termination Of
the rust spores. However, on light. sandy
soil, I do not believe it will pay to plow
under too much straw. Wheat straw does
not decay easily, and the result would be
that wheat on such land would not be
able to mature properly next season, as
the undecayed straw in the ground would
prevent proper soil continuity from below
upward"

The fire has burned over a radius Of
many miles in Montana and Idaho,
where there Is much fallen. timber.
Many other large fires in Montana
are still burning and great quantities
of timber and underbrush are being
destroyed. This is the dryest season
in the history Of Montana.
