The old camp of Verryville, known

with new finds and much excitement.
The camp is situated in the north

THOMAS NELSON OF STONE
DISCUSSES FOREST REShn YES.
Believes Matter Should Be Left With
the State Governments-Of
Special Interest to Nevada.

Thomas Nelson of Stone House ar
rived this morning. Mr. Nelson has
been commissioned a delegate to the
convention in Denver on June Is, IL
and Is which meets for the discussion
Of problems brought about by the
forest reserve policy of the govern
ms Mt
Speaking on matters connected with
the forest reserve he stated that APP
parently there was not much interest
felt by the people of the State in re
gard to the forest reserve, since at the
last convention, held in Salt Lake, he
was the only representative present
from Nevada. From present indica
tions the attendance from this State
at the gathering this year will be no
larger than last.
The forest reserve question is one
Of great interest TO the people of Ne
vada, particularly those Of the northern
and eastern sections Of the State
is believed that much harm to the stock
raising interest of the State will result
in TIE putting into practice the policies
that have been adopted by the national
government.
The government now intends to place
a large amount of land in Elko and
Lander county under reserve This
land is almost absolutely worthless
and good for no purpose except rang
ing.
An opinion expressed by Mr. Nelson
and one that is of more than passing
interest in this connection, is that the
matter of forest reserves should be
left with the idividual states instead
of being in the hands Of the national
government The system could be put
on more practical basis and many
defects resulting from the present sys-
tenn overcome.
\ lie leaves this evening and will at.
+ tend the convention at Denver.

HAS MUCH PRAISE
FOR AURA
NORTHERN ELKO COUNTY CAMP
MAKING A SPLENDID SHOWING.

n. j. Clark, one of the energetic
boosters of the lively young mining
camp of Aura, is in Reno on business.
says the Gazette, and is incidentally
seeing to it that those whom he meets
are probably informed as to the great
ness o. the camp from which he halls.
Aura is about eighty five miles
north Of Elko, said Mr.. Clark this
mornin, and is easily reached by
stage end auto over good roads. The
camp W has about $50 people; it had
less thea twenty year ago.
That s the sample of the percentage
of increase in Nevada towns.
Aura was porspected and mined
several years ago, but it was always
silver they were looking for Recent
discoveries, however, have proved that
we have gold in abundance in many
of the properties, and that even in
those which were previously worked
for silver there is enough gold to pay
all the charges of mining and treating
and still leave a profit in addition to
the silver
Probably the most sensational prop
erty in the camp is the Big Four, the
discovery of which, by party of fish
ermen. was chronicled in the Gazette
at the time On this estate they have
from twenty inches to four feet of ore
that will run close to $1,000 a ton.
This property is being actively devel-
oped by the owners and regular ship
ments win soon begin.
''The Jackpot is the great gold mine
of the district. It's ore runs $500 in
gold in addition to considerable silver.
1t is largely due to the gold discoveries
on the jackpot that new vigor has
been instilled into the camp, for up to
the discoveries on that property it was
believed that the camp was almost
wholly silver.
zone of the oldest mines in the dis
trict is the Blue Jacket, from which
over 50 10000 in ore was taken, some
of which ran as high as 500 ounces to
the ton with some gold During the
working of this mine only ore running
over so ounces was milled -
Mr.. Clark also stated that Tusca-
rora is taking on new lease of life
and that Salt Lake and other outside
capital is going in there on a large
scale to develop on large scale prop
critics that have long been idle.
