DULUTH A PROMISING CAMP
Ore That Fairly sristles With Free
Gold

Archy Dickson, member of the
Nevada Investment Company, has re-
turned from Duluth, the new mining
camp in Northern Nye county. This
is Mr.. Dickson's first trip to the camp
and he returned laden with specimens
and is enthusiastic over the future Of
the new find. Some Of the specimens
that he brought back with him are
literally alive with free gold, while
others that show little pan remark
ably. Assays running into the thous-
ands have also been secured
In speaking of the camp he says:
Duluth to my mind will make the
next boom in Nevada. The fact tina.
a score of engineers are on the ground
and everyone of them is looking for
a chance to get in is what | bank N.
One of the big men in the mining way
openly stated before a number of peo-
pie that Duluth was the greatest
high grade camp he had ever seen.
Rich ore is found on every side. The
greatest showing at present is on the
July and Climax claims, but other
finds of equal Importance have been
made. LeaserS are uncOvering new
and big finds every day. The day
before l left the camp a leaser on
the extreme end of the Climax claim
uncovered some of the richest ore yet
dug out OF the ground. 1t is a pull
veried quartz that fairly glitters with
free gold. Paintings astonish even
the natives of the camp who expect
great things in the gold belt.
Another big feature of the camp
is the fact that gold of high grade
quality and quantity has been found
on both sides of the ridge. The
country is taken up for ten miles
square and new people are being ad.
ded to the population every day
From the way the town is building ii
is only the matter Of a few weeks un
til Duluth will have a population thai
will call notice from every quarter.
'Probably the greatest word thai
can be given the camp is that not al
engineer of the score or more who
have visited tn place, have turned i
down. They all agree that it is {
winner and the formation right to g
down. Salt Lake Denver, Goldfelt
and eastern money is invested in tn,
mines and the work that is going OF
reminds oe of the busy days in Gold
field.
MI. Dixon expects to return to tn
camp in few weeks, as he has sc
cured extensive holdings i ,le dis

THE LIBRARY BUILDING
The Reason Why no Rooms Were Set
Aside for Judges Chambers

Judge Talbot takes exceptions 10
the manner in which the new library
building was constructed. No allow
ance was made for the Judges chamb-
ers and the Judge charges that the
building was not erected according TO
the intentions Of the legislature. AS
the writer was commissioner at the
time the building was erected he feels
able to throw light on the subject.
In the first place the board was
very slow in acting because there
were five members and it was very
hard to get them together at one
time.
For this reason a great deal OF time
was lost getting the board in action
and while this delay was going on
the price of materials went up.
The bill providing for library
building empowered the commission
ers to locate the building outside the
Capitol grounds. Here another
wrangle ensued which dragged along
for several months. The Governor
and the Controller voted several times
to have the building located outside
the Capitol grounds to give carson
the benefit of new building which
would be an ornament to Main street
After a continued squabble in which
the citizens Of Carson petitioned the
board to consider the interests OF the
town, the building was finally located
in the rear of the Capitol, about the
worst place it could be put. 1t was
originally arranged to have the statue
of John Mackay there, but when the
sculptor learned of the location OF the
building in such an out OF the way
place he refused to make a statue &
he housed in building located a;
that was.
Those of the board who urged tht
The daily appeal. [volume] (Carson City, Nev.) 1906-1907, 1907-03-12

building to be placed in its present
site held that in such a case the SUI
preme court could remain where It
was and the judges occupy their pres
ent chambers, which would give more
room for books. For this reason the
judges will remain in their old quart
ers.
After the building was located it
was discovered that the plans would
to the heights of the stories in the
capitol building and this required
seven feet additional which was of
course an extra expense. The state
at the time the bill was passed ex-
pected to have all the stone cut at the
states prison as hey had several good
stone cutters there at the time. Some
of these were parjoned out, others
were liberated and the state was
compelled to hire extra men from the
outside to do work.
The change in plans which made a
library of the entire upper floor so
increased the weight to be held, that
it was necessary to increase the size
of the iron pillars which was another
item of extra expense, structural steel
and iron having materially appreciat-
ed in the meantime.
These are the reasons why a relief
bill was placed before the legislature
by the contractors and their items
OF extra expense were all endorsed
by the supervising architect.
The writer knows of the extra work
required, all being ordered by the
board and believes that the bill is a
just and reasonable one.
Judge Talbot today in conver sa-
ton with the writer stated that he
did not in any way wish it intimated
in the Journal article that he charged
graft against any member of the
} board or in connection with the build
ing which he regarded as an excel
lent piece of work as far as the con
tractors are concerned.

OF which will tell the tail.
The parade of organized labor

THE HOWARD DORSET CO
One of the Best Carson has had for
Long Time

There was not a very large audi
ence to witness the opening play of
the Howard Dorset company last
evening because of strong local at
traction elsewhere. 1t was really
treat to witness the exceptionally
good work of George Howard, the
leading man and commedian, in the
title role of Christopher Junior. It
is refreshing to occasionally run
across a man who can bring out the
best points of comedy work without
resorting to rant and horse play.
Howard has a subtilety of action
and a facial play that is inimitable
and it is pity that more comedians
are not built on his graceful lines.
The delightful way in which he
brings out his best points was fully
appreciated by the audience. Some
times he brought out an explosion OF
laughter by a mere look or a pause
in his speech. The men who have
this rare gift are getting mighty few
and far between on the stage and
should be encouraged.
Miss Flora Dorset was very grace
full and acceptible, but there was lit
tie to call for her best efforts and
the rest of the company had very
little to do.

hidden by Mr.. Williams. The
well-meaning fool and hoodlums
who start riots and the hoodlums
who make 'intlamatory" speeches
are the factors for fomenting
race strife. The well-meaning
fool whose misguided efforts are
bent upon the solution of the me-
gro problem in the South resides
as a rule in a section of the North
where as little is known of actual
conditions in the South as the
average American knows of con-
ditions in the Congo. The hood
lums who express themselves in
action are Northerners and South
erners. 1t is no more difficult to
beat up a murderous mob in Ohio
than it is in Mississippi. The
hoodlums who express them
selves from the platform or from
their seats in deliberatlve bodies
are too often charlatans from the
South who belch fire and brim-
stone with no higher purpose
than that of advertising them
selves, and who libel every
Southern State when they cut
their capers before high heaven.
1t would be going too far to
say that there would be no negro
problem in the United States if
the fooIkiler did not shirk his
duties, or that there would be no
race question upon the Pacific
slope, but large part of the
friction between whites and
blacks and the white and yellow
reces has been due to his failure
to acquit himself gloriOusly.

AWFUL EFFECT OF ECZEMA.

"Our little girl, n year and a
half old, was taken with eczema or
that was what the doctor called it.
We called in the family doctor, and
he gave some tablets and said she
would be all right in a few days.
The eczema grew worse and we
called in doctor No. 2. He said she
was teething, as soon as the teeth
were through she would be all right.
But she still grew worse. Doctor
No. 8 said it was eczema By this
time she was nothing but a yellow,
greenish sore. Well, he said he could
help her, so we let him try it about
q week. One morning we discovered
a little yellow pimple OF n of
her eyes. OF course we 'phoned for
doctor No. 3. He came over and
looked her over, and said that he
could not do anything more for
her, that we had better take her
to some eye specialist, since it was
an ulcer. So we went to Oswego to
doctor No. a, and he said the eye
sight was gone, but that he could

doctor No. 5. Well, that proved the
same, only he charged $40 more than
doctor No. 4. We were nearly dis
c%ouraged. l saw n of the Cuti-
cura advertisements in the paper and
thought we would try the Cuticura
Treatment, so 1 went and purchased
a set Of Cuticura Remedies, which
cost me 81, and in three days our
daughter, who had been sick about
eight months, showed great improve
ment, and in n week all sores had
disappeared. OF course it could not
restore the eyesight, but if we had
used Cuticura in time l am confident
that it would have saved the eye. We
think there is no remedy so good for
any skin trouble or impurity of the
blood as Cuticura. Mr.. and Mrs. Frank
