DISCOVERS Big
GOLD PROPOSITION

What appears to be one of the big
gest gold propositions ever discovered
in this part of the state is being
opened up about eighteen miles east
OF here by Matt Skow, says the Battle
Mountain Herald Very little has
been said about the property and but
few know of it's promising character.
1t is not held by any incorporated
company, no stock is for sale and the
owners have just been quietly de-
veloping and saying nothing about it.
This week the Herald editor, ac-
companied by H. c. Christensen, a
mining man of wide practical expert
ence, visited the property and after
a thorough examination, felt that
they had made discovery
The claims are situated about two
miles in an easterly direction from
| the famous Dean mine. The ground
| has doubtless been run over by hun
dreds of prospectors, but Skow made
the discovery by panning the gulches
| leading up to the ledge, the surface
dirt of which yielded literally of free
| gold, for several hunderd yards be-
| low. The vein, which is a very strong
one, and about five feet wide on an
average, lies in a well defined con-
| tact and has been proven in length
by surface work for nearly a mile.
At one point along the veins strike
1t passes through wide outcrop that
rises about fourteen feet above the
surface. In this outcrop the vein is
almost perpendicular and can be dis
! tinguished on account of it's clearly
defined walls for long distance.
At this point the vein is about six
feet wide and samples taken any
where between the walls will pan
gold. Assays made from a sampling
of the cropping ran from $40 to $50.
About fifty feet southeasterly from
this cropping shaft is being sunk
and has now reached a depth OF
about fifteen feet Here the values
run from $50 to something over $4OO
per ton in gold. OF the several sam
pies we took along the ledge none
failed to show liberal quantities OF
free gold on being panned.

With reference to liquor and
gaming licenses, we know of no
better way to express our Salts
faction with the administration
than to use the words of the late
State Auditor w. Rolf in his
final and last report, which are
as follows:
In every county, probably
with the exception of Nye, there
were violations of liquor laws,
as the result of persons selling it
without licenses. Most of this
was done in the redlight and
dance hall districts, and was a
notorious fact; also that the
gaming laws were 'winked at,
and in several counties the sher-
in and other officials were taken
in partnership by gamblers, and
licenses arranged

In the sheriff's office, that Office
