RESERVATION PROPERTY
SHOWING UP WELL

George Drysdale came in from Tono-
pah this week and on his way stopped
to take look at some mining properties
in which lie is interested on the Reser-
vation. This property is known as the
Walker Lake Syndicate property and
was located at the time Of the opening
of the Reservation by ID. c. Beach, for
Malcom Mcdonald and Key Pitman,
and Mr.. Drysdale and G. w. Wilson.
The property consists of fourteen claims
which are located on the northeast slope
of Black Mountain, about fourteen miles
east of Yerington. Mr. Beach has done
considerable work on the property in
the past few months and it has shown
up some good things. There is one
ledge in particular which shows indica-
tions of making as good a property as
there is on Reservation ground. This
ledge has been opened up on the surface
in three different places and shows an
average width of Is feet. double
compartment shaft is now being sunk
and is down about 20 feet. In this shaft
the ore runs from 2H to 60 per cent in
copper and also carries some gold and
silver values. Several tons of ore are
now out and ready to make shipment
The property is located only about seven
miles from Reservation Hill and the
railroad, so that the wagon haul will be
short when shipping begins.

COLD EXCITEMENT

Considerable excitement was caused
here this week by the reported discovery
last week of rich placer diggings in the
vicinity of Lappin Canyon, some forty
miles south of Yerington and at the
southwest base of Monnt Grant. Quite
few people from Yerington have gone
out to the new find, and those who have
returned say that the country surround
ing the strike has been staked for many
miles. 1t has been known for many
years that gold existed in that section
and considerable mining has been done
and a number of quartz ledges developed
to some extent. About a month ago a
prospector found placer ground and built
a wooden rocker i'll which to wash the
dirt. He met with good results and in
few days had washed out several humid
red dollars worth of gold. Some of the
gold now being found is quite coarse and
tue nuggets are more or less mixed with
quartz. Everybody in the new district
is looking for the ledges from which the
gold comes and they will undoubtedly
be found before the search is over. Har-
ry Paige, well known here, and T. B. Gam
BEL who has been operating in the East
Walker country for some time past, have
made locations of placer claims in the
1lcW llSlIlCl anu nave SOIIlc Vi llc SOOQ
ground.
Harry Barrett and George Pringle
came back from the new district yester-
day and say that the reports about the
rich ground being found is not exagger-
ated. Mr.. Barrett had the whole of the
rich territory located year ago as
townsite, but failed to hold it. The rich
ground is in a sort of basin formed in
the canyon AMI the muck and soft
ground that the cattle have roamed in
all pans big. There are great many
small, rich ledges of quartz in the hills
on each side of the placer ground, and
in the ages past pieces of this quartz
have been thrown off and slid down to
the flat by the elements, and this is what
has been found. The gold is different
from other nuggets i'll that it is wiry in
stead of smooth and round. How much
of the ground that has been located will
prove good remains to be seen, but some
of it is certainly very rich.

EDITOR LYON COUNTY TIMES:

Since you have been established II
Yerington you have advocated the i'm
provement of the town, now the city
and the valley in general, and your ad
vocacy has done much to bring about
many changes for the better in the city
but there is yet much more to be done
and it seems that there is no one outside
of the TIMES that makes any proposition
for Improvement and tries to carry il
out Perhaps they think that the TIMES
has nothing else to do but write to their
interest.
Now, Mr.. Editor, | would like tc
make proposition to the people of the
city of Yerington.
In the first place | will begin with a
mathematical problem that is positive.
| believe you have four stages running
between Yerington and Wabuska at the
present time AS the road runs at the
present time, each and every one of the
stages has to travel at least one mile
more than is necessary to get into the
city(2) of Yerington, which equals two
miles in distance for one stage. There
being sos days in the year each stage
would. therefore, have to travel the ex-
ira distance of 730 miles during the year
What will it cost to drive four horse
stage 730 miles?
Let the stage man answer that ques-
ton.
Then there are from six to ten freight
teams that pass through the city of Yer
ington, en- route to Wabuska every dav
of the year, and every one has to travel
at least half mile more than the actual
distance, which is equal to four miles in
one days travel for one team, or 1860
miles III one year.
What will it cost to drive all S-horse
team 1860 miles?
Let the teamster answer that question.
We are conservative in our estimate of
the teams, as nearly every team, wheth-
er coming from the north or south, goes
into the city on some business.
Again we have lighter rigs which pass
over these same roads, and this half a
mile added to each and every team would
probably make a distance equal to that be-
tween San Francisco and Belfast, Maine,
and perhaps more.
Now, my proposition to the people OF
Yerington and the valley i'll general, is
this; That we make a good wagon road
from the northern end of the main
street of Yerington, starting at con-
venient point, and running due west to
strike the Wabuska road on the west
side of the main river. 1t seems to me
that the parties who own the land
through which this road would pass
could very well, afford to donate right
of way, as the new road would enhance

BUCKSK|N TO SHIP

Champagne and Mccormick, who have
a couple of leases on the Kennedy Con-
solidated mining property in Buckskin,
as about ready to begin shipping ore.
They have forty tons of ore sacked and
ready to be hauled to the railroad and
the teams are now probably hauling the
ore. The ore will go to the new Ogden
smelter in Utah, and it is the intention
of the leasers to ship about two carloads
a week regularly The ore being en-
countered in the mine is fine concen-
trating ore, which, when sorted, Will
make a product carrying over Il per
cent in copper values and some values
in gold.

new ROAD AND BRIDGE

" .h0H properly materially as
well as be OF great convenience to them
The people of Yerington and the valley
generally, can very well afford to CON
tribute the cost of building the road, and
ds the county has steel bridge some
where on the Miller ranch. in mud
hole, we think it would be be better TO
move it up and put it on this proposed
new road where it would be of some use
to the people.
Some people may say that we are 90
ing to have railroad on the west side
OF the river and do not need new wap-
on road; but suppose we do have rail-
railroad, there are great many mines
being opened up that are northeast and
northwest of Yerington, and there will
always be a great deal of travel from the
city to these mines, and this half mile of
extra travel can be eliminated by this
proposed new road.
We would like to hear from other
parties III regard to this matter, espec-
tally those living in the northern portion
OF the valley. We live long distance
from Yerington, but will donate $50
towards the expense of this enterprise if
1t is carried out at once, and believe that
every rancher living north of the city of
Yerington can afford to give as much, or
more, than this sum for such road.
Respectfully yours.
GEO. H. PLUMMER.
In connection with the above we will
state that citizens of Yerington have al
ready agreed to contribute in the neigh
borhood of $1,000 for the construction of
this road and bridge. We include the
bridge because, in our estimation, it
would not be advisable to move the steel
bridge from the Miller ranch That
bridge will some day be of use, when
tile county can afford to build a road to
it. The bridge is too short, also, to
span the river at point where there
would be good crossing for the new
road; and further than that they are
willing to build to the road, leaving all
the money donated by the people Of the
city of Yerington and the valley for the
construction of pile bridge. 1t has
been estimated that a good substantial
bridge of this kind can be constructed
for at least $4,000 Therefore it will only
be necessary to raise about $500 more to
assure the construction of the road and
bridge. This ought to be an easy mat
ter, as the donations to the $1,000 fund
have come mainly from the people of the
CITY and a very close canvass has not
been made, either If there was any
thing like unaninlity of action for the
benefit of the town among the people OF
the community there would be no trou-
bic in having the road and bridge con-
structed inside of the next 90 days.

SUNRISE MINING DEAL

A mining deal of considerable import
ance took place in Yerington this week
when the Collier group of claims, in
Sunrise district, were transferred,
through H. Pilkington, to c. F. Rey-
nolds, of Tonopah, and John A. Hicks,
of San Jose, CAL, for the substantial
consideration of SIS, 900, with $4,000
cash payment and the balance OF the
price to be paid inside of twelve months.
There are ten claims in the group which
has been taken over and some very ex-
cellent showings have been made on the
property for the small amount OF work
that has been done since the claims were
discovered and located. The values III
the several ledges on the property are
exclusively gold at the present time,
and they are so good that the new own
ers are confident that with the develop
ment work which it is proposed to do on
the property it will be but short time
before it is on a paying basis and yield
ing handsomely. The aim of the new
owners is to make the mine dividend
payer in the shortest possible time
Sunrise district is about 28 miles north
west of Yerington, and the location OF
the claims, together with the ample
supply of wood and water makes the
project an ideal mining proposition, "A
wagon road can be built from the prop.
erty to the railroad in the vicinity OF
Churchill station at no great expense as
the distance is only about Ia miles, ana
the grade would be all down hill
