sacking ore at clifford.

The work Of sinking shaft on the
property Of the Clifford Hill Mining
Company, was commenced this week
and will be rushed from now on. The
shaft is being sunk on the ledge and 1870
sacks of ore that will run nearly 81 900
to the ton have already been extracted.
Messrs. Mccarthy and McCambridge
have great faith in the Clifford district
and being firm believers in the leasing
system, state that their company will
extend all leases on the property
another year.

KlOndilxe.

J. 0. Lindan, who is operating in the
Klondike district, twelve miles south
east of Tonopah, spent last Sunday in
town. He says that while little is
known to the outside world about Klon-
dixie it really is one of the best miner
allied sections of the state. 1t was
Klondike that Jim Butler was headed
for when he discovered Tonopah. 1t
was Brougher and Higgs of Klon-
dixie, that he took the Mizpah rock to
for an assay and which that firm
threw out of the window with the re-
mark that it was not worth being
assayed (they afterwards picked it up,
assayed it and got returns of $1200).
Mr.. Lindan is manager and one of the
owners of the Marionetto Nevada Min
ing Company, which is operating six
claims. The main shaft is now down
65 feet and following a rich vein, which
crops on the surface. The ledge is
from 2 to feet in width. A shipment
made recently netted SIT to the ton.
Several leasers are at work on the
Court and Bell property. Sweigert,
one of them, recently made shipment
and got big returus.

RHYoLITE, New, March IA, 1906. |
EDITOR BONANZA:
Ever since the announcement that |
Chas. M. Schwab had secured control
of the Montgomery -Shoshone, Sho-
shone-Polaris, and the Crystal and
Rand groups, the Bullfrog district
has been enjoying almost boom.
The influx of buyers of mining prop
critics and stocks has been greater
than at any time during the history
of the camp. The hotels and lodging
houses are filled to overhowing, so
much so that the Southern hotel has
found it necessary to rent a building
ITO feet long, which they are fitting
up with cots and canvas partitions to
care for their business.
For long time the auto from
Goldfield made trips only every other
day, but now they are coming down
with from one to four machines every
day, and the stage lines are doing a
flourishfng business.
The number OF men working in the
district is limited only to the number
of miners in the camp. There is not
an idle man here who wants to work,
and many Of the properties would
have large forces if the men were
here.
On Bonanza Mountain things are
very busy. Prof. @. e. Bailey, who
has charge OF the Rush group, has
just returned from Los Angeles,
where he bought machinery for the
mine. He is working thirty men and
they have opened up an ore body
sufficient to justify the building of an
ore house. Prof. Bailey says they
will not make any shipments until the
railroad gets here In the meantime
they are sacking high grade.
John W. Seller, vice president and
general manager of the Bonanza
Mountain Gold Mining Company,
started ten men to work on Monday
morning. This property was re-
Gently incorporated and takes in the
Great Eastern group of claims and
the Rush No. 2, comprising in all
about IS acres.
The amount of money that is going
into stock from the local people is
surprising. One hundred and ten
thousand shares of Bonanza Mountain
stock were sold in forty eight hours.
On the Happy Hooligau mine,
which is located in the foothills Of the
| Grapevine mountains, about eight
miles from here, rich ledge of high
grade shipping ore was encountered
last week which runs better than
1915 ton. This company has order
ed big hoist and have started a
second shaft. They have just pur.
chased water right and will begin
to erect cyanide plant within the
next sixty days.
Work is progressing rapidly on the
Keystone mine on Bonanza mountain
This property was recently pur
chased by Salt Lake mining men anC
capitalists. They have about 81
acres and one of the best surfac,
showings in the camp. They ar,
: running tunnel in the base OF th,
hill to catch the Denver ledge.
E A telegram received today from
: Samuel Newhouse, who recently pur
4 chased the Montgomery Mountain
Mining Company's property, say
that NJ NJ. Johnson, his chief engi
neer, will be here within a week t,
! start active operations. They hav,
! ordered l6-drill compressor, ant
will start to work in four places Oh

n generally known, adjoins the Sho

The standard.

Marius Duvall, manager of the Tono-
pah Standard mine, returned from San
Francisco yesterday, where he went to
order an electric hoist for the mine.
A strong flow of hot water was en-
countered in the mine this week at a
depth of SIS feet.

Baxter Springs.

The Baxter Springs Manhattan Co.
and the Baxter Springs Mining and
Milling Co. have just completed their
location work and will start developing
the coming week with large force of
men. The camp is steadily growing,
which cannot be wondered at, consider
ing its ideal location. Three big min
ing companies are actively at work at
present in the district, viz: The Baxter
Springs Mining Co., Baxter Springs
Mining and Milling Co., and the Baxter
Springs-Manhattan Mining Co. Another
company is in course of formation and
several other properties may change
hands within the next few days.
The claims of these companies cover
the main ridge of the mineral bearing
zone which runs from the Springs in
northwesterly direction and which is un-
questionably the southern extension Of
the Manhattan belt. This zone is
chiefly composed Of slate and lime
formation, intersected by a system of
contact and fissure veins, which beyond
doubt are carrying ore of paying quality.
Along the top of the main ridge, free
gold can be panned and specimens of
quartz showing free gold can be found
in several places. Several fine speci-
mems have been taken out of the ledge
on the ground owned by Lou Davenport,
whose claims lie between the Baxter
Springs Mining and Milling Co. and
those Of the Baxter Springs Mining Co.
The latter company was the first to
start development work and has in one
of its shafts well defined ledge three
feet wide and carrying values of $35
per ton.
There is lots of water and wood at
Baxter, and the camp has an assured
future. At present there are about &C
tents and a dozen frame structures,
containing lodging houses, restraints,
grocery, hardware and general merch-
andise stores and bar-rooms. Gorst'
restaurant is the popular eating place.
Pueblo.
! al P. Davies came in from Pueblo.
the new town in Millett mining dis
trict, northwest of Manhattan, yes
terday and says that the camp for a
youngster is a wonder. There are at
least 500 people in the district at
present and a great rush from Man
haitian and other places is now on.
The Manuel Mining Company has just
uncovered 5000 ore on its ground in
a peculiar way. Mr.. Manuel found a
Skeleton with pan full of dirt along
side OF it, He panued the dirt and
got wonderful results. The dirt was
almost all gold. He spent some time
searching for ledge from which be
| figured that the poor unfortunate
had secured it. His efforts were
rewarded by finding a three foot
i, ledge of $4,000 ore within few.feet
of where the skeleton lay.
The Manhatt Pueblo Gold Mines
Company has been Incorporated to
operate choice ground owned by Al.
p Davies There is a three foot
ledge Of $500 ore on the property.

never had a pick in them was con

Railroads are Headed
That Way.

shone- Polaris, and consists Of about
30 acres.
The Bullfrog extension Of the Salt
Lake railroad will be in the district
by the 18th of May Vice President
telegraphed from Los
Angeles that he and Ross Clark
would be here this week to determine
which of the two surveys would be
used for bringing the line into Rhyo-
lite. The railroad is after tonnage
and they will probably use the sur-
Yey which skirts Montgomery and
Bonnnza mountains and then goes
north via the Original Bullfrog and
Gold Bar properties.
That Schwab is going to build big
mill is an assured fact. The location
will probably be about mile east OF
the mine on the road to Beatty. Tt
is a generally accepted fact that
Schwab has secured control OF the
three water lines, which will give him
ample water for milling purposes for
all OF his properties.
There is good deal of interest
manifested in what is known as the
Lee district, just across the Cali
fornia line. Four properties changed
hands there last week, the buyers
being Rhyolite mining men.
The Bullfrog National Bank Co.
has ordered compressor which is
expected here in ten days. This will
be the first compressor to reach the
camp. The mill will be built in units
of five stamps each, so they can
handle their own ores and custom
work at the same time.
The Missouri group which has been
in great demand, was sold last week
to Taylor & Grifiiths, who have in
corporated what is known as the
Bulfrog Alliance Gold Mining Com
pany. The property consists of four
full claims and is surrounded almost
entirely by the property belonging
to Chas. NJ Schwab. The Pike and
st. Louis claims Of this group run up
on Montgomery Mountain almost
touching the Indian Johnny claims of
the Montgomery -Shoshone. Mining
men who have examined this property
say it is the best of the inside prop
critics that have not been taken over
by some Of the big syndicates.
When it is taken into consideration
that the Bullfrog district is about
year and half old, and has eight
stocks selling above par, some idea
Of the interests in this camp and value
Of the mines can be appreeia tel.
Bullfrog stocks selling above par are
the Providence, Amethyst, Mont
gomery.Shoshone, Polaris, Denver,
Gold Bar Gibraltar and Tramp.
The Goldfeld district has three
stocks selling above par, namely:
Jumbo, Red Top and Sandstorm.
Tonopah has eight stocks selling
above par: Tonopah, Montana Tono-
pah, Tonopah. Extension, Midway,
Belmont, West End, Golden Anchor
and Jim Butler
Richard Willis, President Of the
Bullfrog North Star, has just re-
turned from a trip East and an
nounces that work will be commenced
in three places on his property.
During the past week there has
been considerable activity in Montana
Bullfrog stock. For months the quo
tations on that stock have been and
cents. They are now z and cents.
There are fifty substantial resi-
dences in course Of construction in
Rhyolite. Tents have almost entirely
disappeared having been replaced by
substantial wooden residences.

Warren Company and Barber People
at it in Boise
ALSO GET COUNCIL into THE COURTS
BITULlTHIC COMPANY FILES
REASON WHY.

Baker City's answer to the paving
objectionists was filed with Clerk
Combs Thursday morning, says the
Baker City Herald 1t is a protest
against the injunction, a declaration
that the council was right in it's steps,
a denial Of the charge that it exceeded
its authority, and charge that the
Barber Asphalt company, the paving
trust, is stirring up litigation in Bak-
err.
The answer was filed by John L..
Rand. With Mr.. Rand appearing as
special counsel in the case are c. A.
Johns and Butcher. Clifford & Correll
The answer alleges that the Bar
Der Asphalt Paving company, corpor-
ate monopoly owning and controlling
all the asphalt in the world solicited
the plaintiffs to begin the suit that
tied up paving and contracted to bear
the expenses of the suit" and that the
litigation was instigated to harass the
Warren Bros. company, business rivals
Of the Barber people.
1t states that the city at the re-
quest of the people decided upon paw
ing, and that before deciding upon
bitulithic pavement, tentative bids
were asked and after an investigation
bitulithic pavement was chosen as the
best. It states that the property to be
benefited by the proposed improve
ment amounts to 247,OOO square feet,
and that the signatures of the owners
of two-thirds Of the property were not
secured. That the protest was worth
less, is charged
The city asks that the injunction be
dissolved, that the complaint be dis
missed and that the city have judg-
ment against the complainants for
costs and disbursements.
