J. c. Walstad returned from his
trip to Texas last Thursday. He
purchased a quarter section at
Sweden in southern Texas within
s. miles of the Gulf coast. He
paid $40 per acre and thinks it a
great bargain. The land is cover
ed with timber and brush but when
cleared is wonderfully productive.
They have no winter there, raise
crops the year round and the
country is settling up rapidly. A
tremendous boom is on and home.
seekers excursions go in every
week. Nearly all of those who
went on the excursion on which
Jake went, bought land. He met
Bert Roby, formerly of this county.
Bert has made speculations since
going there and is wealthy. Mr.:

half from the railroad. He expects
TO move down in a year or two.

New York, Dec. 25.-As a result OF

siOners of accounts into the award of
the contract for the construction of the
Ashokan dam. part of the city's new

DEVELOPING TUNGSTEN
AT ROUND MOUNTAIN

Since the departure of General Manager
l. c. Pepper for the east the Round
Mountain Monster Mining company has
been steadily at work developing its IA
nous tungsten property under the able
management of Mark Newell, says the
Round Mountain Nugget.
A tunnel which had just been started at
the time Mr.. Pepper left has been driven
into the mountain over 200 feet and it is
expected that by the middle of next
month it will be sufficiently far in to be
gin a raise which will connect with the
upper workings, which are about seventy
five feet above. One does not appreciate
the amount of work that has been done
here until the premises are inspected.
The value of the property has been
proven beyond a possible doubt and the
fact that il is tremendous proposition,
which will have to be worked on a large
scale, precludes the officers and directors
from passing any snap judgment as to
their future policy. The method and
means of developing work has been and
is now under consideration and by spring
il is expected that there will be some big
work undertaken on the property. That
a mill will be installed is practically a
foregone conclusion, but its size and kind
must be considered from every point OF
view and this matter is now under ad-
Visement.
Much will depend upon Mr.. Peppers
future plans, which as yet are indefinite,
but it IS expected that they will mature
in the near future.

REASON WILL NOT Be GIVEN
Rear Admiral Brownson Leaves Blu
reau of Navigation With
Keen Regret

Washington, Dec. 25.-Rear Admiral
Willard H. Brownson, whose resigna-
ton as chief of the bureau of naviga-
ton of the navy department was an
nounced at the White House yesterday,
turned over the affairs of his office to
Captain Cameron MGR. Winslow, who
has been designated TO take charge of
it's work. He then said goodbye to his
late associates in the office and re-
turned to his home.
Admiral BrOWnson declined again to-
DAY to discuss the reasons which led
up to his resignation. Again he made
it manifest that any information bear
ing on the subject must come from
those higher up in authority, TO whom
he referred all who asked him for ne/s
on the subject. He said it was with
the greatest regret that he took leave
of the navy department in an execu-
tive capacity, after forty-six years of
SerVice.
At the White House efforts to secure
Admiral Brownson's letter OF resigna-
ton or the reasons for his leaving the
service were met with the positive
statement that nothing beyond the
bare announcement of the admiral S
resignation ami the selection of his sue
cessor would be given out from that
quarter, either today or in the future

DEAL IS CLOSED
FOR FAIRVlEW GROUND

The first mining deal of moment to be
made in Nevada since the money strin-
gency laid a blight on trading was made
yesterday in Fairview, when the Fairview
Brokerage company, acting for eastern
clients. took an option to purchase, before
Jan. 10, the Dixie. Accident, May Queen
and Dixie Fraction claims lying just west
of the famous MiZpah, and only 600 feet
away from that bonanza, says the Fair
view, Nevada. News.
The sellers were Otto and Frank Stein
heimer William Finger, Sam Watkins
and J. A Pearce, composing the syndicate
that sold the MiZpah to D. J. Kennedy
and associates. The price named in the
option, and which the purchasers must
pay for the group. is $500. and a large
block of the stock of the Incorporated
company. It is announced that those In
whose interest the option was taken will
visit r'airview Immediately after the holt
days for the purpose of paying for the
property, taking title to their purchase
and starting development work on the
estate

80 cents per ton. The average value of
the slime treated was 30 cents per ton.
The cyanide decomposition was 81 pound
for the first ten days, .3S pound for the
second ten days and -325 pound for the
last ten days. The zinc consumption was
, pound of zinc dust per ton of slime.
While the lime consumption was four ana
half pounds per ton. During the last
ten days of November, which may be
taken as fair sample of the work being
accomplished at present in the big plant,
an average of ABS tons of slime per day
was treated for a recovery of 81 per cent.
The full capacity of the plant is Loco tons
every tWenty-four hours on-the slime
from the ore mixed now being mllled.
One of the more interesting features OF
the work is the low consumption of pow
er. This was less than 1-20 XIV. per ton OF
slime per day. and according to Mr.. Mer-
rill this would be reduced to a merely
nominal figure were il not for the neces-
sity of COMPRISING large volume OF air
in order TO Oxidize the reducing chemicals
in the Homestake ore. This necessity
calls for at least 70 per cent of the power
used in the treatment of the slime.
The explanation of the small amount of
power used is that there is no agitation
of pulp, and to the further possibility of
using a very small bulk of solution;
namely, l TO I, or less, being all that is
leached through the slime cakes.
The slime plant has had a thorough
testing with different character ores.
During the period of the memorable fire
last summer, rather during that Pc
Rod when the mills were able to resume
crushing after a months idleness, the
HOmestake was obliged to secure its ore
from the open cut, surface rock being
used. While this ore was of lower grade
and slower of treatment than that taken
from the lower levels as today, ii showed
slightly higher recovery Cup to SO per
cent?, which was to be expected from ore
containing practically no sulphides.
The slime plant today is approaching its
normal working basis, most of the con-
structiOn work having been completed and
the force of workmen gradually reduced.
The automatic sluicing device, which is
one of the important features of the
plant. has proved to be entirely success
full in this the largest slime plant in the
world The presses hold tWenty-siX tons
each, while the largest hand-removal
presses operated elsewhere have a eapa-
city of only six tons each.
Mr.. Merrill figures that the recovery
will shortly be brought up to 80 per cent
or slightly better, and the cost reduced
materially, just as the costs per ton al
the cyanide sand plants have been re-
duced until they are now less than &
cents per ton of material treated as
compared with nearly double this figure
during the early operations of the plants
The addition of the slime plant has
brought the recovery from Homestake ore
to SO per cent, at a total milling cost foI
crushing amaigamating and cyaniding
of approximately SO cents per ton.

TREATMENT OF SHINES
AT HOMESTAKE MILL

Now that the HomesJake mine in the
Black Hills, S. D., is again producing IT'S
normal mix of ore after the difficulties
caused by the fire, the slime plant has
reached a point where the showing will
approach the work of the future. and
Superintendent c. W. Merrill designer
of the plant and inventor of the special
process that makes it entirely unique in
the mining world, has made public figures
relating TO the cost and operation, says
the Mining World.
These figures are based on actual op-
eratiOns OF the plant for November, 1907
during which period twenty-one presses
Were completed and running. Today
twenty-five of the tWenty-fOur filter
presses are in operation and with the
addition OF the other two a still further
change Will be made in the cost and re-
cCvery figures.
During the month of November the
plant treated S, 46S tons of slime for a re-
covery of IS per cent by charge and resi-
due assays, and 81 per cent by bullion,
while the total costs were approximately

DUTCH CABINET RESIGNS
Dissolution of Parliament Likely to
Follow-Clerical Party
Well Pleased.

The Hague. Dec. 25.-The Dutch cab
inet. or council of ministers, compris-
ing nine members. by whom the execu-
tive authority of the government is ad-
ministered, today presented its reslg-
ration. 1t is thought that the dissolu-
ton of the parliament is likely to fol-
low. The resignation of the cabinet
is due to the defeat of the army esti-
mates in the second chamber of par
lament.
The opposition in the discussion of
these estimates contended that the eff
ficiency of the Dutch army was not
proportionate TO It's cost. The cler-
icals, who are opposed to the govern
ment's plan for universal suffrage, are
pleased over the situation created by
the cabinets resignation, as they pre-
fer that the expected general election
which is to follow should be fought out
on the military issue rather than on
universal suffrage.

THE PEOPLE OUGHT TO THINK
ABOUT THIS.

On next Wednesday the people of
Glynn county will vote upon the
proposition TO issue bonds in the sum
of $4,000 for new court house and
new Jail purposes.
We are advocating this bond issue
as matter Of progress and develop
ment, believing that the betterments
contemplated are badly needed and
knowing that an issue of bonds for
these specific purposes is the only
equitable and fair way to produce
the required revenue.
We are not going into this subject
very deeply this morning. but we do
urge the people of the community to
reflect on the importance of the mat
ter and come out to the polls next
Wednesday and vote for the measure.
The county commissioners have told
us that the money must come, and
il it does not come through the
equalizing channels of bond issue,
then 1t must come through the more
narrow and binding course OF a spe-
cial tax levy.
The people ought to think abou,
this question.
