ELKo COUNTY CAMPS,
Eighty Men Working In the Mines
VI Tuscarora.

An Elko paper. the Free Press, says
the mining interests OF Elko are picking
up. that mining men are becoming
aware that the southeastern portion u
the state does not contain an the rich
mineral deposits. During the past few
months considerable inquiry has been
made for properties al Mountain city,
Edgemont Aura, Bullion aud other
camps.
The Protection mine ~ Mountan
City on which systematic development
work has been in progress more than a
year under the supervision OF William
Willis. backed by Boston capital, Ia be-
yond doubt today one ~ the biggest
propositions IN tho state,
The mine is within a few rods Of the
Owyhee river, from which an abund-
ancc N power can be had and could
not be more favorably situated. Num-
erous other mines and prospects are
slowing NJ favorably and with devel-
opment viii become producers.
In Edgemont about 50 men are en-
ployed In the Burrell mine and mill
and regular shipments are being made.
IN Aura district the Denver Nevada
Placer Mining company has begun work
on 1900 acres ~ placer ground I'm Bun
Run basin under the supervision u
II L. Morris. Last fall the company
built 5000 feet Of pipe and 500 feet Of
sluce boxes. About the head Of the ba.
SIN are a number producing mines
owned by Walker Bros, the Aura King
Gold Mining company and others. Three
mills are daily handling the ore OF
these mines, and four others are IN
course of construction. II Is from
these leads that the gold was carried
into the basin below. on which the
Denver Nevada Placer company has
begun work.
Brightest prospects are IN TuSarora
where about 30 men are at work de-
yeloping the Dexter and Common
wealth In both Of these properties
large bodies of high grade ore have
been encountered which insure perma-
nency 10 the camp for years. Each OF
these mines has produced millions OF
dollars although developed but TO In
considerable depths The development
work which has been IN progress for
nearly q year has revealed large bodies
Of high and low grade ore and they are
again TO become big producers.
TIE mining industry Of Elko county
never looked so bright and that we ate

Il southern Nevada IN the near future
there can be no doubt.

COPPER SHARE MARKET.

The copper share market Is discussed

copper authority this week

There Is every reasonable basis for the

belief that SIN further increases In
copper mining disbursements are COM
ing and the effect Of this can hardly fail
TO impress itself on market prices.
There is no line Of business that Is
more prosperous or IN more healthy

business conditions are all right, such
stocks as Amalgamated, Anaconda,
Calumet & Arizona, Copper Range,

ROCK ISLAND COMPROMISES
Agrees to Five Thousand Dollars
Damages TO MendenhaII

The trial Of the case OF Joseph f. Men
denhall and J. b. Mcdowell against the
Chicago, Rock Island & Pacific Railway
company has been settled by compromise
between the litigants and is stricken from
the United States circuit court docket.
The compromise settlement was on a basis
of 5000 in favor OF the plaintiffs and costs
of suit, which VIII aggregate about 1850.
The plaintiffs brought suit against the
Rock Island company for $1,000 damages
alleged to have been sustained through
the building of an embankment by the de-
PENDANT road to its approaches for a bridge
across the Little Blue river whereby floods
were caused that impaired a dam belong
ing to the plaintiffs and prevented the
operation OF mill race that supplied the
water power for a Touring mill owned
by the plaintiffs. The case had gone to
trial before jury and testimony was taken
for one day, when further trial was sus-
pended pending negotiations for a compro-
mise. which was finally contaminated
Thursday morning.

legislature, used to be the Rock Islands

CoSTLIEST PAVING IN OMAHA
CreosOted wooden Blocks VIII BE
Laid over yiaducts by
the Railroads.

The costliest pavement ever laid in
Omaha is to be put on by the Union Pacific
and Burlington railroads on the viaducts
over their tracks, beginning with the
Tenth and Sixteenth street bridges. The
flooring is to be of creosoted wooden blocks
and will cost about 50 square yard.
The Union Pacific which has the work
I'm charge has been getting information
on the practcability of this kind OF paw
ing for months and has decided to use it.
Old-world cities within the last few years
have taken to creosoted blocks with avidity
and more recently they have been used in
New York. Last summer a representative
of a St. Paul company came to Omaha to
interest the local city government in the
idea. He was told that the citys experience
with the old-fashioned wooden paving had
been such as to prejudice the people against
anything of the kind for years to come.
A newspaper reporter suggested that he
see the railroad companies which are re-
quired to maintain the viaducts and
endeavor TO demonstrate the value of his
wares. The representative accepted the
advice and succeeded. At the time it was
given il was reasoned that II the blocks
prove successful on the viaducts II would
be a far easier matter to convince the
citizens that creosOte blocks make a
superior pavement. The traffic on the
bridges is harder than on most thorough
fares
