HIGH LICENSE AND SALOONS.

The saloon revenue for the year un-
 der the new S1.000 license plan is re-
 ported 10 be $7.292. .OC0, as against S..
 720,001 for the last year under the
 smaller license. Out of total of C.
 353 saloons in the city only 122 have
 failed to secure a new permit at the
 higher figure. Allowing for sOino changes where poorly paying places
 have been abandoned and better sites
 selected, it is evident that the argu- | ments made by the saloonkeepers
 against the high license were not well based. The business evidently Is suf- ficiently remuneratfve to warrant tho
 payment of double the old fee for the
 privilege of carrying 1t on. The
 large revenue thus secured by the city tells of the much larger amount
 of money which is spent each year
 for liquor.
 Recent developments connected
 with the restoration of licenses which were once revoked for cause indicate, likewise that the statement that the keeper of a disorderly place cannot continue in business owing to the new law forbidding the issuing of auy new license until there are 500 inhab- itants for each saloon is not we'll sup- ported. The same power of pull" Is apparent. The threat of revocation of license will have no terror when notorious saloons can get their H. censes back. Tn other words. neither the increase in the license fec nor the new law relating to the proportion of population has accomplished that wedding out of dives which many of the friends of restriction had looked for.
 It is sufficient comment to note that the increased revenues are to he used largely for the support of i.iU new policemen required for tho bet ter protection of person and property. the dangers. to which are in great de- gree due to the evil influences, which radiate from the saloon as a center. Unless these new policemen and all the old ones are taught to understand that laws are to be rlgidly enforced. that closing hours are to be strictly observed, and that disorderly conduct and lad reputation may bring about nnal reFDchtiOn or ufen>t. tncft will be no immediate prospect of lm- provement In the conditions Of Ffc in Chicago.
 The occasional rumors of ''shake up" In police circles makes little im- pression upon the average citizen. He learns 10 suspect some hidden reason for surh sporadic changes. and smiles knowingly when one is announced as contemplated. The laws exist in abu7dance IL Is the enforcement that counts. And many an ordinance would never he brought up for en- fcrcement fl there was the clear un- derspnding of determination on tic partof the authorities. For the vio- lations vouh be few with consist ent policy of supporting the law fol- lowed by sll police authorities for any length of time. Neither a higher s-- loon ncrnre nor the addition ot many parolmen will make the law more rs-pectei- lt Is the enforcement cf the law vhich secures better coIldi- tons os life in a eommunity.--thiea- @ Tribuns

Samuel q. McMullin, the Well Known
Lawyer Returns From Colorado
and Says the Centennial State
is Sitting Up and Taking
Notice Of Nevada

"Colorado has set the pace. Its in
vestors have already sent a large
amount of money to Southern Nevada,
and some of the largest operators OF
that state are preparing to come here
this spring to take advantage OF the
innumerable opportunities which this
district Offers
These were the words of s. G. Nc
Mullin, of the Law firm of Detch q Me-
Mullin, who returned Wednesday night
from a three weeks visit in Denver
and other Colorado cities.
"Never before has the country been
so prosperous" continued Mr.. Nc
Mullin, "nor has so much money been
available for investment. The con-
s~picuous success which has attended the
efforts of Colorado operators in Gold
field and Southern Nevada has attract
ed the attention of investors generally.
This is especially true of A. ID. Parker,
whose successful ventures in GoIdield
serve to induce many of the monied
men of the Colorado mining sections to
come here, under more favorable condi-
tions than obtained during the days
when Goldfeld was in it's infancy and
when none of it's properties were much
more than prospects.
ssThe DEVELOPMENT of the Red Top
and Sandstone, with the increase in the
value of these stocks has lone more for
the camp than anything that happen
ed during the past six months. The only
thing necessary to secure the enthus-
iastic support of mining men is the con-
tinued success of these and other COM
panies, steady shipments and the

conditions prevail within a reasonable
time, more outside money will be avail
able for investment than can be placed.
During the past year l hav made
three trips to Denver and on neither
of my previous visits was there the in
terest in Nevada which is prevalent at
this time. Colorado operators have alb
solute confidence in Goldfeld and this
entire section. i know of three syndi-
Gates that are planning to make large
investments here during the spring, and
many others are considering this Sec
ton as a field for immediate opera
tions. The Goldfeld Water company,
financed by Colorado men, is preparing
to spend a large sum of money IN de-
veloping its property here. The Gold-
field Monarch, another strong Colorado
company, whose holdings are near the
Dixie will, during the spring, work its
claims on an extensive scale.
"For the most part the Colorado men
are operators who will develop their
properties. They have but little facil-
tiles for stock speculation, except
through connections here, and conse-
quently their interests are of such a
character that they contribute to a
degree to the camps development.

RECORD MADE ON BIG
MANHATTAN FLOTATION

pany in proper shape for mining the
property successfully.
In discussing the Manhattan district,
Sol Camp, superintendent of the Janu-
airy mine of the Goldfeld Mining COM
pany. said yesterday: 1.-The things
most remarkable in the Manhattan dis
trict are the enormous gold values OBJ
tanned from the very grass roots down,
and the ease with which veins of high
grade ore are located. Guided by the
apparent trend of the veins, as re-
vealed one by one by the early pros
pectors and ~leasers, trenchlng on the
surface at likely points has in half a
hundred instances enabled leasers to
cut right into a vein of rich ore; and
literally, from the very grass roots
down, they have been able to sack
high grade, realizing therefore from
$3.50 to $1,000 per ton. On n side of
the canon, ~leasers are sacklng at
twenty places on a vein -four to five
feet wide, which is opened up for a
distance of $500 feet. Within a thou
Sane feet, a number of cross veins have
been cut into, and from these even
more sensational values are being OBJ
tanned. On the other side of the gulch
(the April Fool, Mustang, Broncho and
Black Mammoth side) practically the
same condition prevails, and at the
head of it, hundreds of sacks of high
grade were being taken out daily when
litigation, brought about by a conflict
over ownership, caused all work to be
temporarily stopped.
considering the short period of ae-
tive development work, a matter of
sixty days or so, the showing is start
ling. As to ~permanency of the ore de-
posits, the fact that the high values are
almost invariably found in true assure
veins, is a very iattering indication.
"Nothing can prevail to stop a
world beating production of high grade
at Manhattan during the next six
months. The ore is free-milling, and
when the time arrives when owners and
~leasers will want to realize on their
low grade, mills will solve the question
for them. Mining is a simpler matter
in Manhattan than in any other gold
camp in Nevada. Wood grows on the
hillsides and can be had for the taking.
Water is developed at a hundred feet,
and the supply is practically mex
haustible.'

W. J. Brewer, the well known New
York mining man aud who is heavily
interested in the Royal Mining com
PAW and the Buckskin Mining COM
pany. as well as in a number of leases,
returned to Goldfield Wednesday from
a six weeks visit in Southern Cali
fornia.
ssDespite the fact that in the past
San Franciscans have been loath to re-
ceive us, Southern Nevada now holds
the center of the stage, with the invest
ors of that progressive city, said Mr..
Brewer discussing his trip.

merits of our stocks and the supporting

There is reason to believe that the
Goldfeld and Tonopah, but has already
taken hold of the east. Less than a
week ago Patrick, Elliott & Camp, the
Goldfeld brokerage house, announced
locally, and by mail and telegraph to
their clients in the east, that they had
been appointed fiscal agents for the
Seyler- Humphrey Gold Mining com
pany of Manhattan, whose property is
the famous April Fool group, upon
which the original discoveries were
made.
Yesterday they were compelled to
turn down subscriptions.
The entire allotment of treasury
stock was sold out In five days. The
first half of the allotment was put out
at % cents and the second half at 30
cents. Offers by telegraph from New
York, Pittsburg and Chicago for the
stock at 50 cents, from brokers, were
turned down by the dozen yesterday.
Patrick, Elliott & Camp announced
yesterday that they would finance the
Manhattan Combination Mining COM
pany, of which l.. l.. Patrick, of local
Combination fame is president, and
within a few hours $4,000 shares of
treasury stock were subscribed by local
investors at Is cents per share.
The Manhattan Combination Mining
company owns the two famous Black
Mammoth claims, within a. few thou
sand feet of the Mustang and Broncho
claims. The ground here is mountain
Gus and has the appearance of a big
black butte. For miles around Man
haitian it can be seen, so rugged are its
groupings and SO strongly is it marked
by naturalization. A tremendous
ledge runs through the property. On
these two claims, in the opinion of Sol
Camp and other noted mining engi-
neers, will be found the Mother Lode
of the entire Manhattan mining dis
trict. Surface assays vary from SO to
$50 per ton. OF the entire capitaliza-

GOLD CRATER CENTER
OF MINING INTEREST

NJ. f. f. Wadleigh returned this
week from Gold Crater where he is in
terested in the lease known as Block 5
on the Lookout property. He is pre-
pairing to make a shipment which he
expects will bring handsome smelter re-
turns The ore is now being sacked
and will be brought to Goldfeld within
the next ten days. The vein is six
feet wide and averages 800 to the ton
and the richest of it runs as high as
$500. The apex of the vein was
located near the surface and carried
the values practically from the "grass
roots" down. At the forty-foot level
a erosseut tapped the pay rock and it
was stopped to the surface The
shaft was continued down to IS feet
and another crosscut is being run to
the vein.
Mr.. Wadleign reports considerable
activity in the vicinity of Gold Crater;
a number of successful mining ventures
has given the district a strong impetus
and renewed activity is apparent on
every side.
II believe" said Mr.. Wadleigh,
"'that Gold Crater is destined to be
the center of great mining activity in
the future. Whiting the last week 20
men have gone in and on the properties
where work has been in progress for
some time past, a most encouraging
showing is made in every instance"

the Jumbo Extension company. 1T has
always been considered a choice piece
of mining realty and recent develop

opening up of high grade is anticipted
by the management at any time ana
once the shipping area is reached there
is every reason to believe that vein
and values will be permanent.

RIDGE LOCATES PAY ORE

Two and a half feet of $424 ore was
opened up Wednesday night by Roy
Ridge on his lease on the Daisy No. 2
at D~iamondfeld and the remainder of
the vein matter showing in the bottom
of the 75-foot shaft contains milling
values of from $40 to $50 per ton. The
lead has been followed down from
grass roots but hitherto values have
been somewhat unstable. Mr.. Ridge
will continue sinking until the 100-foot
point is reached and will then drift
along the trend of the lead in search OF
an ore shoot. He is. now sacklng the
product and will send out a conslgn-
ment the latter part of next week. Sui
phides are a characteristic feature In
the ore and are Indicative of the per-
manency of both lead and values.

PALMER AND PARRoTT IN ORE

A strike which promises to develop
into one of more than ordinary merit
was made yesterday in the Palmer
and Parott lease on the Atlanta estate
and on the strength of the find Atlanta
stock advanced a number of points on
the local exchange. The ledge was
tapped in the crosscut from the loo-
foot level and is showing 6 feet wide
with but one wall in sight. Milling
values prevail it's entire breadth n
along the foot wall there is a small
streak of shipping grade. The quartz
is well mineralized and presents favor
able indications of making into a large
and permanent body of pay ore. Devel-
opment Of the find is being pushed as
rapidly as possible and the conditions
warrant the statement that the lease
will be on the shipping list within a
very short time.

BULLFRoG HAS STRIKE
IN GOLDEN SCEPTRE

News was received in Goldfeld last
night of an important strike made in
the north end of the Golden Sceptre
mine, on Bonanza mountain, near Bull
frog. At a depth of 100 feet in a
winze sunk from the end of the tunnel,
miners broke into a rich ledge which is
presumed to be one of those dipping in
from the Gibraltar property. The
width of the vein is not known, but It
is free milling and pans freely. j. G.
Mccormack, who is heavily interested
in the property telephoned news of the
strike to John Donnellan last night and
stated that he had been expecting for
some time to reach the ledge and that
the showing made from the first pan
nings and assays are of a most fatter-
ing character.

BREWER TAKES NEW LEASE

W. J. Brewer, who arrived from New
York this week, on Wednesday closed a
deal with the Silver Pick company for
a lease on the ground formerly oper-
ated by January Jones. After attain
ing a depth of % feet with an incline
shaft, some difficulty arose between Mr..
Jones and his associates and the lease
went by default. Mr.. Brewer put a
crew of men on the ground Thursday
and is picking up the development work
where it was abandoned. Good pan
nings have been secured from the bot
tom of the shat, and an assay as high
at $24 was obtained. The ledge is six
feet wide and dips on an incline. Mr.
Brewer now has two concessions on
Silver Pick territory.
