The Pure Food Law.

The Republicans claim the credit for
the pure food law. but the Republican
congress made no appropriation for
carrying the law into effcst. The ma
jority Of the Republican members Of
congress have little sympathy with
the law and tried before they passed
1t to weaken 1t at every point. When
1t comes to voting the appropriation OF
81, 900, 900 which Secretary Wilson says
is necessary to carry out the provisions
Of the law, we shall see how much in
fuence has been exerted BY such op-
ponents as the patent medicine people
and other interests that are interfered
with. The law goes into effect on Jan.
/, but until provision is made for its
enforcement, 1t will be a dead letter.

A prominent rancher living near
Walla Walla was in the city recently

marks which might open the eyes of

"I know of several good farmers
living near me who were victims of
this fake concern" he said. at ap-

for men to engage in real estate busi-

who are willing to devote part of their
time to helping sell property. The
unsuspecting countryman answers the
advertisement. and by return mail is

WAY OUT OF COAL SHORTAGE.
Present Laws Suggest Remedy to q
Boise Citizen.

A prominent and we'll known Boise
man said to the Capital News of that
place, in discussing the coal question
and the shortage in the supply Of fuel
here and all through this section Of
the state, that he believed, under the
present laws, there is a very simple
remedy for the condition.
The remedy he suggested was to
purchase coal from Ellensburg or Gle
Elum in Washington, and have 1t
shipped in here. He called attention
that an attempt had been made to do
this, but the Short Line had refused
to haul cars from the Northern Pa
cific upon which road the great coal
fields OF that section are located, but
It is his opinion now the recent legls-
lation would compel the Short Line to
haul this coal and at a rate as reason
able as It hauls its own coal.
The distance Of the Union Pa
ciflc coal fields from Boise Is about
the same as the distance to Ellensburg
and Gle Elum and the roads would
be forced to give the same rate for
the same distance, and should they re-
fuse 10 handle the coal, II would
clearly be in restraint of trade and
the courts would compel them to
transport II the same as other freight
rendered to It.

Greenwater Booming.

Malcolm L. Mcdonald and Lewis H.
Parkhurst returned from the Green
water district on last Thursday evening.
They spent 10 days looking over the
Greenwater and Death Valley Copper
Company, Regarding the country Mr..
Mcdonald expressed himself most en-
Enthusiastically. Speaking of the district
Mr.. Parkhurst said 1--WE have at pres
ent force of 80 men at work on the
property of the Greenwater and Death
Valley Company. Two shafts have al
ready been sunk to depth of 100 feet.
These will be permanent. We are pros
pecting around looking for a proper
location of the third. Both the shafts
have run well in ore. On one the shafts
we are crosscutting 12-foot ledge of
first class ore running from 10 to 80 per
cent copper
The hosting apparatus has not been
received but would not be surprised if
it is on the way from Johnnie Siding.
One of the hoists will be operated by
SO h. p. engine and the other two by 35
h. p. engines. Notwithstanding the
absence of hosting facilities we are
doing great work.
The Nevada Smelling and Mines Cor
poration of which Mr.. Mcdonald is
president, has acquired big group Of
claims, and already has men on the
ground. They will in all probability
erect in the near future smelter,
which will be accessible to the district.
We have also completed the organi-
zation Of bank to be known as the
Greenwater Banking Corporation. The
capital Of the new institution is $10O,
900. Senator George S. Nixon win be
the president, and H. B. Gee, cashier.
| have been elected vice-president. In
addition to the officers, the directors
are, Malcolm L. Mcdonald, Donald B.
Gillies and Frank A. Keith. Mr.. Gee
has already procured the necessary safe
and other Office furniture.
Chief Engineer Mcclure of the Clark
road has been looking over the ground
for suitable railroad route and think
it viii be but matter of short while
before we will have railroad. A well
boring machine is on the way and an
abundant water supply will soon be
developed within striking distance Of
the camp. A great many people are
coming in and fair sized boom is on.

Mines at ReveiIle.

Col. Bush, who is heavily interested in
Reveille mining property spent the
week in Tonopah. He says the camp
of Reveille never looked better and its
people are looking with great expect
ancy to the erection of the great
smelter which will be built soon by the
Nevada Smelling and Mines Corpora
tion. Mr.. Bush reports big strike on
one of his groups in the camp, the ledge
having been uncovered in a tunnel,
which goes over $1O0 to the ton. A
remarkable feature of the strike is the
width of the ledge which is feet.
Several new finds have also been made
during the past two weeks by Frank
Kitzke and Henry Anderson, the Reno
banker. At the Reveille Tonopah
assays so from $35 to $27S on the sur.
face in several lodges. $4,000 share
of the treasury stock will soon be
placed on the market. for the purpose
of development.

Golden Gate.

The shaft on the Golden Gate Mining
Company property is down 440 feet and
force Of men are steadily sinking it
further. At present the work is con-
fined to the rhyolite formation. Barr
ing the uncertainties of mining, it is ex-
pected to strike the andesite within the
next 100 feet. The mine is situated but
1900 feet from the West Tonopah and
it is confidently expected that the
Golden Gate people will encounter the
same vein recently discovered by the
former company as it is reported to
strike in an east and west direction.
The nature of the rock throughout the
property is closely similar to the famous
Mizpah rock. Most of the money used
in the development of the property has
come from the inside. For some time
past the stock has been quoted at 25
cents per share. Last week, however,
the company formally listed the stock
on the San Francisco Exchange at 10
cents per share.
