FLORENCE GoLDFIELD RED
KING CLAIM LEASING CO.

Stringers of high grade ore were
found during the last week in this
lease, this time in the north drift,
where work is going on with all posi-
bic speed. The assays, which were made
by the California and Denver assay
offices respectively were $500 and 5000.
The north" and south" drifts are both
ON the $50 foot level. which in the opin-
ion of the engineers connected with this
enterprise should be sufficient depth
to trace the extension of the Florence
vein, which seems to point to this
ground.
The management decided to sink to
the 300 foot level and this work is going
on well, two men being employed regu-
larly in the shaft.

LOT JUMPERS
GET TOO BUSY

As the result of a decision handed
down from the Federal Land office at
Washington this week a number of lots
in the business section of Goldheld were
jumped by squatters who had miscon-
strued the effect of a recent law office
decision.
The interior department has ordered
Judge Murphy to enter the application
OF spuatters on the "Phenix Addition"
for a townsite.
The land as affected by the present.
decision is that which was originally
taken up as placer claims by Geo. :
Phenix and others. and is located out
side the boundaries of what IS known
as the Goldheld Placer on which Gold
fields business section Is situated.
Phenix laid out tow lots on his placer
location. and sold many OF them.
On these claims many vacant lots
were jumped by squatters and homes
built thereon by later corners. In order
to make secure their titles to these lots
application was made through attornies
Wilson. Reddington and Ogden to Judge
Murphy of the District count, to have
entry made under the Federal Townsite
laws. Judge Murphy. acting in the
capacity of trustee for these claimants.
referred the matter to Washington. and
now comes the decision of the Federal
authorities directing Judge Murphy to
carry out the decision Of the department
and to enter and file the petition of the
claimants.
The decision. il is understood, holds
that squatters on this ground would
have no right to the lots I'm case of
valid mineral locations. nor can such
lots be jumped as have been improved
or arc occupied.
But it should be clearly understood
that the matter decided by the depart
ment does not comprehend the main
business portion of Goldfeld, the
Goldheld Placer, and there is therefore
no kind of legal warrant for jumping
vacant lots on the old townsite.
The decision has not at this time of
writing been received, but it can be said
that it's terms do not hold out any
encouragement to squatters to capture
vacant lots on the Goldfeld Placer, and
any such action on their part is entirely
without the sanction of the law and
evidently due to a misconception of the
meaning and object of the land office
mandate.
The question as to the Goldfeld Placer
has yet to be decided by the interior
department, and J. NJ. Fairfield has been
appointed by the government as com
missioner to take testimony as to the
validity of the Goldfield Placer, Con-
glomerate Placer, French Placer and the
Grubstake Lode claim as mineral lands.
H.. G. Hunt, inspector of special agencies
for the department, and +. j. Park,
special agent for the department. are
now in Goldfeld in connection with the
hearing of this evidence. Thursday by
the consent of all parties the hearing
was continued to December 10.

JOY A BOOSTER
FOR WONDER

Russell T. Joy, one Of the original
locators Of Goldneld and now of wonder,
came into camp this week. Mr.. Joy who
is largely interested in Wonder and
permanently residen there. says that
the new camp looks better than ever
before. The mineralized territory OF
Wonder is one Of the largest in Nevada
and mining men speak Of IL as one OF
the most promising camps they have
ever seen.
The m~ineralized territory at Wonder
covers fully an area Of 6 miles square.
The Tonopeh Mining people AVE Just
bought the Hidde Treasure and Last
Chance group which form the extern
sions at both ends Of their Nevada Won
der group.
AT 1O0-foot level on the Nevada Won
der IL is reported that 81 feet OF ore
going better than SEQ has been exposed.
on the Jackpot ore is being sacked
that goes $500 to $500. With tho shaft
down only about so feet. some $25.o0
worth Of ore has already been extracted.
on the Belcher mine, which is Henry
weber's property, ore is also being
sacked. The Belcher property is In
fact sacking ore in -four different places.
About two ana one-half miles distant
from the Weber property is the Wasp
and Spider group on which a number
OF Ieasers are at work. The Toohey
lease is sacking ore that runs $500 to
$500, and three others have rock h a
goes from 500 TO $500.
The Ruby Wonder company, located
three miles west of the town OF Wonder.
is also sacking ore that will average
nearly $500.
Mr.. JOY states that five properties
in all, scattered through a district one
TO three miles apart. are sacking ore
for shipment and these shipments Will
just as soon as the new road
that is being constructed from Wonder
to FalIon via Stillawter is completed.
This road will cut the present distance
bet ween these points by 16 miles, the
present road passing by Fairview.
Wonder camp is rapidly building up.
AZ has already a post office and tele-
phone connection with Hazen, via Fair
view.
Within six weeks Reno and Goldheld
people will establish a bank. The WON
der News" has been published weekly
for some time past. With a present pop
ulation of 500, and a total for the dis
trict of some 500. Wonder has shown
most excellent progress. Mr.. JOY pre-
diets a great boom for the camp after
the new year. "Goldheld is a wonder
and Wonder is a Goldfeld," is the way
Mr.. Joy estimates the two camps.

probable that such will be the outcome of the pres

Those who are pessimstic, predict that parlia-

hopeless as this, as Russia contains enough loyal
patriots to safely guide the country thru the present

Books With o. Motive.

IT HAS often been said that novests are class
of people who contribute less toward the betterment
of the human than anyone else This indict-
ment is partly true but WHOLE it is utterly false.
Those writer's whose books are of coarse quality,
and sometimes vulgar, create and do much harm.
But those whose desire it is to benefit their fellows
to improve condition, are legion. It is in this
capacity that novelists have enriched the world by
their mastery art. They the first to throw down
the gauntlet to the enemies Of the republic, and to
acquaint the people with the national abuses that
have grown up unnoticed and unexpected.
At present there is before the public book
called 'The Jungle" by Upton Sinclair. This book
has created intense discussion thruout the United
States tIt is impossible to estimate the good it has
accomplished; but no one doubts that the abuses
which it attacks will be reformed as the book has
already caused loss to those directly concerned
reaching millions of dollars.
The novel that is written for a worthy purpose,
always commandsrespect. Thedemandfor such books
will always be unprecedented; and the admiration
accorded the authors those stawar hearts who per-
form their duty unfinchingly, will always act as a
stimulant to encourage others.

IT is generally conceded that the blackmailer
would to exist such if it were not for the
unrighteous conduct of those upon whom he preys.
Blackmail is very low occupation, but sometimes it
has proved rather remuneratve to those engaged in
this nefarious work. It also is very dangerous
profession for matter how weak the prosecuted
may be, he is likely to turn and wreak vengeance
upon his tormentor.
AS general thing the blackmailer is devoid of
sef-respect and honor. He is scavenger who preys
upon the weakness of mankind vulture who knows
no pity, shame; who stands in the YES
tibue Of ones home, prepared to plunge the repen-
tent at the feet of the world if he does not pay
ransom. The vulgar rich who indiscreet, are
bad; but the blackmailer is thousand times worse.
