 F. E. Monteverde, accompanied by H. s. Roach, of the Southern Califor- mia Power Company, of Riverside, H. N. Tracy, of Los Angeles, and Wm. L. Peters, of Riverside, arrived in King man yesterday and are looking out site for the big power plant soon to be erected here. The plant will develop 1900 horse power, which will be dis tributed to all parts of the county. Mr. Monteverde has been working on this scheme the past year and now has it perfected. The machinery has been purchased and work is to be con- menced within sixty days. It is ex- pected that the company will be in a position to turn on the power by the first of February. The installation of this large generating plant in King man will be of incalculable benefit to the town. Mines in the interior will be benefited by using this power, as it will mitigate the lack of water and fuel. There are few properties in the county to which fuel does not have to be hauled that by the use of electric power great saving can be made. Kingman people will give the new plant their moral and financial sup port.
 Howard wells came up from the Standard Gold Mining company's pro- perty, at the south end of the Cheme- huevis mountain, where he has a con- tract on the Manotowoc mine, He reports the shaft at a depth of 32O feet, from the bottom of which a cross cut is being run to the vein. It is ex- pected that the vein will be reached within few shifts. At the 200 the ore was found to be the full width of the drift and of a high value. Should the ore at the 300 prove as good as that above the ore on the different levels will be blocked out and a mill will be put in to handle the mine pro- duct.
 All the mining companies having properties in the Bill Williams Fork section are preparing to start up work. Sam Butler, the Planet, Os- borne and Wardell, the Signal Copper company and many others have hoist CTS, water tanks, wagons and machin cry at Yucca awaiting shipment to the mines. It is expected that this winter will be one of the most active along the Fork of any year in its his tory.
 w. R. Hearst has been nominated for Governor of New York by the dem- ocrats, defeating Congressman Sulzer by vote of 3OS to I24. Hearst already has the nomination of the Independ- ence League, powerful reform asso- citation. His opponent on the republi- can ticket is Charles E. Hughes, who so successfully prosecuted the insur- ance grafters.
 Prof. F. s. Hafford, principal of the Kingman school, gave his lecture Lambs and Kids, to a good sized au- dience in Elk Hall yesterday evening. The lecture was very instructive and full of noble thoughts and was appre- ciated by the older ones present. 33S
