Tom Leahy has been in town
during the week visiting friends.
Ore shipments from this point

The Mules Vamosed.

Frank Ashley, who has been
located in Buckskin for some
months past, left a couple of weeks
ago on a prospecting trip. He
went overland with a nice little
span of mules and spring wagon.
Last week he came back on the
train minus the mules. 1t seems
that he turned the animals loose
at camp, near Luning, expecting
that he could find them at any
time he needed them, as he had
done many times before. But the
mules liked out for the alfalfa
fields of Mason Valley. They evil
IDENTIFY did not appreciate the
change of diet from nice green
grass to oil cans and sagebrush,
and will likely be found some
where in this valley ere long, al
though their owner has not yet
run across them.

A smooth, oily-tongued individ-
ual canvassed the town this week
for business cards of a very ordi-
nary kind, for which he asked $40
per thousand, printed on one side.
The remarkable thing about the
whole affair is that he found bust.
ness men who gladly coughed up
the exorbitant price asked, when
they could have gotten the same
work for less than half the price
by patronizing local printers.
The individual gave his name
as Gus Peel. He left town Thurs
day evening without consulting
his numerous creditors, among
whom were Mrs. Rathbun, at
whose place he boarded. He also
owed the Herald Office for print,
ing. Other towns are warned of

Rich Ore Shipped.

Messrs. Brown, Bell & Co., Salt
Lake people who have a bond on
the George Simpson mine, about
four or FIVE miles northwest of
Wellington, shipped sixty sacks
of ore last week to Salt Lake for
reduction. The ore is considered
very rich, and it is believed that
the sixty sacks will net the ship
pers $1,000; possibly more. The
mine is situated in a very steep
locality and the ore had to be
packed out on jacks. The parties
who have the Simpson claim have
located several other claims ad-
joining the Simpson property.

Good Pine Grove Prospect

Fred Willis has four claims in
the Pine Grove district, adjoining
the old Wheeler properties, which
are showing some fine ore with
no work to speak of done on them.
There is yet no we'll defined ledge
opened up, the ore being heaved
up in large punches. The ore
horns we'll and assays show it to
run from $28 to $40. In some of
the honeycomb rock gold can
be seen with the naked eye. The
average assays run about $45. This
is a pretty good showing and
worthy of the: expenditure of some
money in development work. Mr..
Willis has given DR.. w. F. Boy
Ian, of Tonopah, short option on
the claims, and it is expected that
development work will begin on
the property at an early date.

BUCkSkIN-RED TOP
STILL LOOKS GOOD
A Number Of Leases Let and Work
to Begin at Once on Them.

The tunnel being driven in the
Original Red Top mine at Buck
skin is now in distance of
IS feet on the ledge, and the val
ues in the ore are still holding
good. The shaft being sunk on
this same ledge is down Sc feet
and is all in ore. At this depth
prosecuting began this week to
see what the width of the ledge or
body of ore is. As the shaft is all
in ore the width has not yet been
demonstrated. This will be done
by crosscuttting. The ore being
taken from the shaft and tunnel
will all average better than $50
per ton, and it can be hauled to
Wabuska and shipped to Salt
Lake for reduction for $o per ton,
which makes pretty good ship
ping proposition of it.
Eleven leases were let by
Messrs. Pitt, Kennedy and Camp
bell this week on the Red Top
group. The leases take in ground
from $50 square to 2oox6oo feet in
area. No lease larger than 200
feet along the vein and 600 feet
across the claim will be let. Some
leasers have taken a much smaller
piece of ground. All who have so
far secured leases are making pre-
parations to open up the ground,
and it will probably not be long
before a number of gasoline hoists
are in operation in the camp. The
leasing system will soon prove the
merits of the camp, and it is pre-
dicted that Buckskin will show
itself to be good producer.
There may be no phenomenally
rich ore encountered, but consid-
cradle shipping ore will no doubt
be taken out, and the camp will
probably resolve itself into a good,
steady milling proposition.
Ten carloads of ore are now on
the dumps of the Red Top, taken
out of the shaft and tunnel, await
ing the arrival of sacks.

Smith Valley, is becoming quite a
popular place for prospectors to
drop in and take an annual bath
and recuperate.
Frank Foster and Will Wade,

being favorably impressed with
the country from a mining stand
point, while several report good
finds in the adjacent hills.
Chas. Kinds, proprietor of the

promising group of claims.
Several parties have been nego-
tiating with Mr.. Kinds for lots
near the Springs upon which to
build cottages for themselves, and
he is having lots surveyed for this
purpose. These cottages will be
built by parties who have mining
properties at Buckskin and who
would rather have homes in the
oasis than at the mining camp.

The Utah Smelling Company,
whose large plant near Ogden is
rapidly nearing completion, is pre-
pairing to lead the present smelter
trust a merry chase. 1t is assert
ed that they will depart from some
of the old and obsolete customs, in
order to give the producer some of
the benefits of the present pros
perity of the country.
Few people realize the immense
profits which the smelters are reap
ing through the combination,
which is commonly termed a trust.
To illustrate in a mild way what is
meant by this allegation the fol-
lowing is cited: 1t has been the
custom, for no other reason than
that they could do it, for the trust
to deduct from all copper assays,
arbitrarily, one and three-tenths
of the percentage. In other words,
were the miners ore to assay ten
per cent. copper, the trust would
deduct one and three tenths of
the percentage, which leaves
eight and seven-tenths per cent.
Then the smelter people would
say, if copper was selling at eight
cen cents in New York, that they
would pay the producer that
amount less three cents, or fifteen
cents per pound. In addition to
this deduction a heavy freightage
and smelling charge is added.
Now, if copper was listed at nine
cents this would not amount to so
much, but with the price at eight
cen cents, with no increase in the
cost tor putting the ore through
the smelling process, one can
readily see that the trust gets the
largest end of the stick. Should
they so desire the trust could re-
duce the cost, so that the producer
would not suffer so much, and
still make handsome profit.
The same arguments holds good
in lead and gold ores. Being an
independent concern, the Utah
Smelling Company have decided
that they would share the profits
with the producer and for this
reason they deserve the support
of the mining men throughout the
country.
