Silver Party Will
Never Appear
Again.

An interesting feature of the ap-
preaching state campaign in Ne
vada will be the elimination oil
the Silver party, remarks the
Gazette which came into existence
twelve years ago and which swept
the state at every succeeding elec-
tion until 1904 when the Repub-
licans marched to victory.
While no direct expression up
on the matter has been obtained
from State Chairman Burke OF
Secretary Burke, the understand
ing is among the leaders of the
Silver movement that no call will
be issued in the coming spring
for an election of committeeman
or delegates in accordance with
the party's custom. Instead the
port will be left undisturbed in
the grave where it was placed al
the last election.
"The party received its birth in
Nevada said a once prominent
Silver man this morning." sud
here the curtain has dropped. Its
mission is ended and IN it is fit
ting tina. the Nevada organization
should be the last to retire from
the theatre of politics.
The Silver party had its incep-
ton during the dramatic campaign
when Cleveland was elected over
Harrison and Weaver. In that
year the Silver men of Nevada
supported Weaver, the Populist
nominee, and two years later the
party was formed, the organiza-
tion claiming some of the ablest
men of both the Democratic and
Republican parties. That year il
swept the state and until 1904 its
power remained n brok e n, al
though ITS influence began to wane
in 1902 when it fused with the
Democrats.
With the breaking up of the
party comes the reunion of old
campaigners with the Democrats
and Republican parties.

Concerning Timing
Patents.

We publish the law concerning
the publication of mining patents
which may be Of some interest to
those in this section who are think
ing of pstenting their mining
properties.
In a pamphlet issued by the
General Land Office, entitled,
"United States Mining Laws and
Regulations Hereunder" on page
81, paragraph At, appears the fol-
lowing:
The register shall publish the
notice of application for patent in
a paper of established character
and general circulation, to be by
MIN designated as being the news
paper published nearest the land
Copp's Digest of Decisions
states:
The law is explicit to the effect
that notices of mining applications
must be published in a newspaper
to be designated by the register, as
published nearest the mining
claim. The register has no dis
erection except where two or more
papers of repute are equi-distant
or nearly SO, from the mining
premises sought to be patented.
A decision of the Land Office
rendered within the last six months
in a Colorado case, states that
where two or more papers of gon.
eral circulation are published in
the same town, the register MUST
give it to the paper selected by
the person seeking the patent

Did You See the
Eclipse?

Did you see the eclipse last
Thursday night? was the question
asked large number of Battle
Mountain people Friday morning
about one-half of whom answered
in the alternative. The announce
ment of the almanacs that the
moon would enter the shadow some-
time after midnight was based up.

rs the time in this part of the world
is nearly three hours earlier and
30 the first sign of the shadow was
visible few minutes after 9 O'Clock
but the total clipse occurred a few
minutes before midnight. The
night was almost favorable and
the spectacle grand and sublime
was the unanimous verdict of those
responding to our questions. AS
the shadow gradually crept over
the face of the silvery moon the
dim outline of the rim only could
be distinguished which looked like
a silver hoop. The shadow passed
quickly and in few minutes after
the eclipse the moon began to
emerge from the shadow and soon
shone out again apparently more
brilliant for having been hid for a
few hours.

Citz MAC, tne Wloely known mlu'
ing writer and expert of Colorado,
was in Reno last Thursday, on his
way to the southern camps. While
in Reno he was interviewed by a
Journal reporter about the mining
industry in the State and had the
following to say regarding Lander
county:
Park Canyon.
"There are 900 claims located l
am told at Park Canyon and (of
course) townsite laid of. It is
high up in the range and probably
deep in the snow just now, but
the country will hear from it early
in the Spring. l am told that one
group of eleven claims there was
sold the other day for $500, 600.
That shows it has got the stuff.
Austin, the first big gold camp in
Nevada, and once a fourishing
place with two daily newspapers,
in fact once the metropolis of Ne
vada and a vigorous claimant for
the location of the State capital,
but of late years paralyzed und de-
spondent, lies in the Toiyabe range
60 miles north of Park Canyon.
"And say, dent overlook this,
the Big Smoky Valley, that lies
between the Toquima and the
Toiyabe ranges is one of the finest
agricultural and fruit and stock
regions in Nevada. Why, clear
down there by Manhattan and Park
Canyon it contains some beautiful
ranches and orchards. The finest
orchard (uot the largest but the
best and most fruitful) that l have
ever seen in Nevada stands on the
Henry Millett ranch through
which the road runs up to Park
Canyon.
Lander County.
keep your eye on the North
End of old Lander county. You
will probably hear of some big
things there between Lewis Peak
and Dome Peak, not far from the
once fourishing but now vanished
old camp Of Bullion-you will
probably hear of some big things
there before the wild flowers bloom
in the Spring ira, la. Keep your
eye on that spot sure. What has
happened, or is going to happen,
you will find to be just about in
township 29 north, range 46 east.
See if it doesn't. Remember the
spot.
"Secret? Oh, pshaw, no. But
I am not absolutely sure. I was
in there last July from Beowawe
and l liked the looks of the region
immensely, but the discovery
which I suspect had not been
made then. 1t has only been made
lately, if at all, but it will make
Manhattan and Goldfeld and Bull
frog look as cheap as two for q
nickel If what l have heard is true.
That's all | can say of it, for l
really don't know much more.
Bullfrog will get big influx of
population this year because it is
great mineral country, and the
new railroad from Las Vegas will
reach it by May or June. Lander
county will also in all probability,
get big influx.
10000 Coming Into the State.
II look for an addition of 10000
to the population of Nevada within

Light and Air In Streets.

A bill regulating the height of build.
fngs hereafter to be erected and al
tered in the state of Massachusetts,
outside of the city of Boston is one
which deserves the support of those
who wish to see our American cities
maintained in a healthy and livable
condition. The main feature Of this
bill is to prevent the erection of any
building to . height greater than one
and a quarter times the width of the
street upon which it is situated, and
in no case to exceed the height of 125
feet. If the owner sets his building
back from the street the width of the
lane unbuilt upon may be added to
the width of the street in determining
its height, the governing idea being
to prevent the streets of Massachu-
sets towns and cities, which are in
most instances somewhat narrow,
from becoming veritable canyons by
the erection of lofty buildings on eth.
ell side.-Boston Herald.
