Madison, May 21-The' proposition

ing the present IS circuits and substi-
tuting a system of four circuits in
each of which there shall be as many
judges as neces sary to care for the
business, viii not be pressed at the
present session Senator Whitehead,
author Of joint resolution proposing
such change of the constitution
asked and received permission to
withdraw his resolution. 1t may be
brought up at the next session Of the
legislature. Senator Hastings joint
resolution looking toward an amend
ment to the constitution to authorize
a tax on incomes was laid over. The

weeks ago by Senator Bird, declara

statements as the following: eve

more than $4,000 people," "We

Nineteen states reported that
truant officers are appointed by
local boards. Eight say that they
are appointed by local boards in

noticeable that these six replies
come from states which have
never had any compulsory at
tendance laws. Not a single SUI
perlntendent in any state where
there is compulsory attendance
law says that such compulsory
law can be enforced without
truant officers.
Or course the answers varied
greatly as to question No. Z in
regard to Increase in attendance
A great many of the Northern
states show no increase or very
slight increase. 1t is noticeable
that the Southern states, which
have no compulsory law, are in-
creasing In attendance much
more rapidly than any other
states anywhere in the country
This is attributable more to the
rapid development aud prosperi-
ty of the country. For instance.
the increase in Georgia was 81 =

York was about $4,000. The
increase in South Carolina was
$4,000. While the increase in

+ ORE SHOWING.
Estimated That Sawtooth Mine Has
$1,000 Tons.

Estimated That SawtOOth Mine Has
$4,000 Tons.
In past issues some comment has
been made on the properties being
worked by Holcomb and Anderson,
lying about one and a half miles
north of the Sawtooth townsite, but,
after a personal examining, made by
a representative of the News, a con
sentative statement can be made that
an overestimate of the gigantic posi-
bilities of this immense deposit of
valuable ore by Dame Nature would
be difficult TO form. For 1000 feet
the ore crops from this ground, al
most continuously, in some places at
tanning a width of thirty-ive feet, but
averaging at least fifteen feet IN
width for the entire 1000 feet. 1t
stands six feet in the air at some
points and the silver car be plainly
seen in the rock clipped from the
groupings along the course of the
vein. 1t is believed the ore will
average from $50 to 500 per ton
along the entire course and that there
is fully $4,000 tons of it above the
surface. 1t contains both gold and
silver values, assays having given 159
ounce in silver and two ounces in
gold. A prominent banker of Bos.
ton is interested with Messrs. Hol
comb and Anderson and will arrive
here about the middle of this month
to inspect the property and he viii
certainly be amazed at the wonderful
showing. 500 men could be put e
work on this property to good ad
vantage, all beginning on ore.

WESTERN PACIFIC'S.
NEVADA SCHEDULE.

According to Salt Lake papers, the
Western Pacific will inaugurate reg
ular freight ana passenger service on
its line between Salt Lake and Bews,
Nevada, on October /.
This announcement has been made
by the Salt Lake officials of the road.
Bews is the point at which the West
ern Pacific intersects the Nevada
Northern.
With only a gap OF eight miles 20
close, and with track being laid at
the rate of over a mile a day, the
Western Pacific should connect with
the Nevada Northern at Bews in u
very few days. Steel is now laid
westward about $50 miles. From
Salt Lake to Bews the distance IS
approximately 1853 miles.
The laying of track has been re-
sumed after a suspension of about
sixty days. The work was suspend
ed to permit the grading to be done,
the track layers having caught up
with the graders. The work will
now be pushed with all possible
haste.
Depots are being placed about
every ten miles. Fourteen of them
are now completed, and between
Salt Lake and Bews there will be
seventeen stations.
Virgil c. Bogue, chief engineer of
the road, and T. ]. Wyche, division
engineer. made a trip over the entire
line from Winnemucca to Salt Lake
last week, and found everything in
splendid condition. Every detail of
the work was inspected, and Chief
Engineer Bogue was well pleased
with the conditions.
No passenger equipment has as vet
arrived for the Western Pacific, and
presumably Rio Grande rolling stock
will be used when the operation of
the road begins unless ore cars ar
rive in the interim with track laid
to Bews sometime in September. This
should give ample time for making
all preparations for the opening Of
the line for traffic early in October.

WAKING UP.

Diamondfield Jack Davis returned
last evening from a trip to the old
Klondike district, twelve miles north
east of Goldfeld, where he went to
look yer properties belonging to
himself and the Goldfield Amethyst
company, of which he was the foun-
der.
According to his report al unpre-
cedented amount of activity prevails
about the old camp and recent de-
velopments have caused an influx of
operators and prospectors which will
soon bring the section into promi-
hence.
Night claim of the Amethyst com
pany return values all the way from
$50 to $3.50 and the surface indica-
tons on the ground are excellent.
Mr.. Davis trip was made to deter
mine the most favorable point at
which to begin active development
work. In addition to the Amethyst
he has twenty-five claims in the dis
trict.

BROCK CONTROLS.
TecOpa Consolidated Passes Into the
Hands of PhiIadeIphian.

1t comes from sources of unques
tionable reliability that the control Of,
the Tecopa Consolidated has passed
to j. w. Brock and Philadelphia as
sociates. John t. Overbury, one Of
the heavy owners of the property, ae-
companied by H. G. Mcmahon, also
Interested, was here the first of the
week returning from the mine. How
ever, he neither denied nor confirmed
the report, but the impression gained
was that the transaction had really
taken place. No statement as to the
consideration involved has been
made, though the present price of the
stock and the initial price of the pror-
erty when Overbury and associates
took it over, lead to the conclusion
that it must have been large
The Tecopa is a producing mine
and has been for some time. Mr..
Overbury says that it is shipping
from 10 to 100 tons of ore "a the
smelters daily, and that this tonnage
will be increased just as rapidly as
additional teams can be procured to
haul the ore to the railroad. The
output is averaging about $50 10 the
ton, which after ~deducting all charge,
amounting TO in the vicinity of SO,
leaves a net profit.
Jerry Rourke, in charge of the
Schwab properties in Greenwater, has
been appointed superintendent of the
Tecopa Consolidated, in the place Of
j. H.. Lester, formerly superintendent
of the Tramp, who had to resign on
account of his health.
Accompanying Messrs. Overbury
and Mcmahon was w. A. Starr of San
