GOLDEIELD MAN
GETS DIAMONDS

M. J. Cooney has struck a diamond
mine or diamond field in the neighbor-
hood of 0roville in Plumas county. Cal
~ifornia. At least he has written to his
friends here to that effect and they are
firm in the belief that he is not de-
ceiving himself or them.
Mr.. Cooney came to Goldheld from
South Africa about two years ago and
then declared that a diamon field would
be found somewhere on the desert n
he has been busy ever since in trying
to make the prediction n reality. He
contributed several excellent articles on
the subject of prospecting for diamonds
for The News and they attracted wide
attention. as the writer was an expert
in diamond mining. He had a world
wide experience in this line of work
and recognized that the geological con-
ditions were right for a diamond de-
posit. He was not after gold and those
who know him say that he would not
take the trouble to stake a ledge of
quartz that showed free gold. He was
considered a diamond crank"
Among his friends here were Captain
]. A. Hassell and Captain ]. s.. Shay
who knew him in South Africa. They
were not captains by courtesy but by
right as both earned their titles in
fighting in the lost cause of the Beers.
Cooney was only a high private in that
same little army of patriots who made
all the world wonder at their fortitude
in standing against the might of the
great British empire so long. All three
lande in Goldfeld determined to re-
coup their lost fortunes. The two cap
tains have succeeded In doing it in Gold
field and both are hoping that the high
private will be wearing diamonds mined
by himself before the year is over.

GOLDFIELD MEN OPEN UP
NEW CAMP IN THIS COUNTY

A new camp in this county is being
opened up in the southwest portion of
the Candelaria hills and Goldfield miners
are entitled to the credit and EN- !
ments thereof.
Last spring E.. f. Granger. =. D.
Nichols and w. A. Wolber left here on a
prospecting trip and found quartz that
PANIED in a new section of the hills n
three miles north of Queen station ON
the Nevada & California narrow glage
road which runs from MINI to Keller.
Since the original discovery a section
of country 2 by 4 miles has been staSed
and free milling ore has been opened UP
in a dozen places and assays on good
sized streaks of the white quartz have
been secured that went as high as 500
Picked pieces of the ore show free gold
in abundance and If tested by fire would

run in the hundreds per ton.
The veins occur in the p%orphyry and
the pay portion is a dull looking white
quartz. Several assays were made here
IN good sized samples of the ore the
first of the week which came from the
Bird group and they showed a va;Uc in
gold of from 81 to $3.50. There is
plenty of timber in the camp and WAGER
can be developed for stamp mill pur-
poses. several of the owners of groups
of claims in the new camp are making
arrangements to raise money for the
purpose of opening up their promising
acreage. The deepest hole in the camp
at present is not more than Is feet. In
the event of high grade smelling ore
being found the camp is advantageously
situated. as the wagon haul to the rail-
way is a short one.

A dispatch from Washington states
that in the near future the United
States government will manufacture
it's own powder. This prediction is
based upon the belief that bill in
troduced in the House of Representa-
tives appropriating 100000 for the
construction of powder factories will
become a law. It is stated that the
secretary of war. the secretary of the
navy and the President favor the BILL
The introduction of the bill follows
Investigations showing that the powder
trust is charging the government twice
as much as it should for the S5,000.00
worth of smokeless powder used by
our navy and army every year. We
have, however, seen very little done
by the Republican party towards
throttling monopolies. If the foui
powder companies, of which the Du
pont is the largest, have combined anC
charged two prices for the powder SOLD

be checked. The public will watcl
the fate of this bill especially since i
is approved by President Roosevelt
