GOLD BAR

ooAk Dan
An important fnd was made in the
south drift Of the big shaft Of the
Gold Bar yesterday, when they cut
into a fne body Of ore that will ru=
better han 5000 per ton.
The Gold Bar is making n fine show
ing for the number of men employed.
Their No. l shaft is down $50 feet, and
the north drift at that depth has been
following the hanging wall for 100
feet, all in ore. The most of it is low
grade, but a streak along the wall runs
very good.
The south drift is in 1875 feet and in
the breast of this drift the good strike
was made yesterday. During the past
week they have been getting under the
rich ore shoot that cropped on the sur
face and gave the property ITS respect
able standing in the district, though
better values have been found at the
present depth than above. The Gold
Bar has been spoken of as having a
world of high grade milling ore, but
recent developments give promise Of
showing up a shipping grade. Good
ore is expected shortly in the north
drift as they are getting opposite the
center shaft, where $44 rock was ex-
posed.
The plan is to continue these drifts
to 300 rect, in the meantime crosscut-
ting from the shaft to determine the
width Of the ore body, which shows on
the surface to be about 200 feet. A
crosscut is already in sixty feet, in solid
quartz showing high grade milling
values. The work being done is no
less han blocking out ore as it is de-
termining the length and width of the
ore body. During the last month, las
feet of work has been done and all the
rock raised from the No. ! shaft with o
horse whlm.
The No. 2 shaft at the fifty-foot level
has gone forty-two feet in a crosseut
toward the foot-wall. Adding this to
the thirty feet already driven toward
the hanging wall, shows a body of ore
seventy feet wide without reaching
either wall.
Shaft No. 8 is down Atty feet on an
elghty-foot cropping, and has four or
five feet of good manganese ore. The
Homestake company recently started
WI LII q ohdit oh thio iii oaa
which crosses onto their ground. Jump
ing 1000 feet from the No. 3, in a
southwesterly direction on the strike
of the vein, a deep open cut is being
made exposing for thirty feet ore that
will run $1S. About seventy-fve feet
north of the main shaft a clearly de-
fined wall has been exposed on the
surface and $7S ore taken out.
A careful consideration Of the above
will convince one that the Gold Bar
has grown to mammoth proportions,
and seems to. be prosperous under the
management of Superintendent l.. E.
Bedford. One hundred and n~inety-one
feet of work done in one month at an
average cost of $3.50, with a force Of
ten men, seven of them underground,
is certainly not a bad record, and re-
fleets no little credit on the man who
is responsible for it. Nearly 700 feet
OF work has been accomplished in four
months, and all of the rock raised by
windlass or within.

ANOTHER RAILROAD COMING
Nevada Central Railroad Will Surely
Build to Goldield

j. &. Phelps Stokes, president of the
Nevada Central railway, running from
Battle Mountain, on the main line of
the Southern Pacific, to Austin, an
n that his company has deter
mined to carry the road one hundred
miles further south and get into som
munication with Tonopah and Gold
field.
He says the road is not a paying
proposition at present owing to the de-
cline Of Austin, once a rich mineral
camp, but that it would be a most
valuable property if it could get a
share of the southern mining business.
The Nevada Central was built many
years ago when Austin was one of the
largest camps in the state. Since then
the mines have declined and trains are
only run on the road three times I
week. 1t is estimated that for a rea-
sonable outlay the additional one hun
bred miles could be built, starting
from Austin Junction and passing
through the rich districts of Berlin,
G~rantsville, Lodi, Downieville, Els
worth and C~loverdale.
Ores carrying remarkably high values
are found in all these districts which
also possess immense deposits of low
grade ores but there is practically no
shipping from any of them on account
of the poor transportation facilities.
The owners of the Nevada Central
are wealthy residents of the east and
do not lack the capital that would be
necessary for the Improvement.

The Money Makers of GoIdfieId

The real moneymakers of Goldfeld are busy. They are
not prospecting, but they are engaged in digging out the gold.
They are making wealth through taking leases on producing
properties. One of these leases, the Reilly, over on the Flor
ence, has produced $4,000 daily right along. Others, on the
Sandstone, on the Cornshman, on the February, on the Gold
COMM fact, on most of the large mines-are prospecting pro-
portionately as well. Men who were poor last month are rich
today; those who were laboring hard a year ago, have their
millions now. And the lease is the secret of it all.
That is why, after seeing where and how l could get leases

No Suffrage
For Russia

Special to The Sentinel
St. Petersburg. Dec. 22.-The en-
peror has at last taken a position on
what is perhaps the most fatful ques-
ton raised by the revolutionists. He
has definitely declared that he can
not grant universal suffrage. There
is no doubt that this refusal will
cause widespread dissatisfaction and
tend to increase the agitation. The

light plants struck yesterday after

The most active part of the crusade
for the Gothenburg system of regulat-

Campaign Manager Hutton put 40 can

ture of voters. These canvassers will
work" thoroughly the first four wards
Of the city, which have already been
prepared for signatures by the advance,
literature which the main office has
been sending through the mails.
1t is expected that it will be several
weeks before the petitions will be ready
to present to the countil, for there are
47,000 voters to be considered and it is
the purpose of the Gothenburg COM
mittee to reacn as many of these vot-
ers as it can. Manager Hutton has
stated emphatically that no half way
measures will be adopted and that
thorough canvass Of the city will be
made before the council Is asked to
take the necessary action for the install
lation of the system.
Two members of the police commits

would create dangerous monopoly,
the assertion is made that these mem

prove that the breweries own large

Saturday is the last day Of the spe-
who has not taken advantage of the
so per cent increase in votes will have
lost one of the best opportunities of
the entire race. However, they should
not feel discouraged, for there is am
pie time to close the gap of a few thou
sand votes. Every mail brings in
loads of coupons for The Herald's
Salesladies Contest and no one can
imagine what height this good-natured
race will attain. Do not let others get
too far ahead it may be more difficult
to catch up than you think. Get in
this week if possible and get your
friends to vote for you and the rest will
be easy sailing The young ladies who
are struggling for supremacy are not
finding much to restrict them in poll
ing a large count. The people of Los
Angeles and vicinity have responded
literally to the call of the candidates
for votes and the result is each one is
rolling up big total, besides holding
many votes back for the final squirt.
Let every contestant get in this week
and make as large showing as pos
sible Votes will never be so easily
gotten again, and those who take ad-
vantage of every minute now in all
probability will be the winners of the
prizes. This week has been one of the
best of the entire race and more sub
scriptions have come in and more votes
issued than in any one previous week.
And why not? Just so per cent more
of the usual amount on old and new
subscriptions this week. Those who
have subscriptions should get them in
before II o'clock Saturday night if they
desire to get the benefit of the spe-
cial offer
Don't forget tomorrow is the last day
