WILL WEIGH
ALL MATTER
POSTMASTER TO KEEP RECORD
OF MAIL FOR THE SEMI-AN-
NUAL TERM FROM JULY
Longer Period Than Heretofore Cover
ed and Mail Devided Into More
Classes-WeIght of Equipment of
Every Parcel of Mail to Be IncIud-
ed in List.

Postmaster Z. T. Beltz this morning
received definite instructions concern
ing the annual weighing of the mails
at this p~ostoflice, which will start July
! Il continue for six months Here
tofore the weighing period has been
only about two months long. Mr.. Beltz
has been informed that a complete rec
ord of every pound of mail sent out
of his office for six months must be
kept and forwarded to the h%eadquar-
tiers of the department at Washing
ton.
Many Different Glasses.
All frst-class mail must be weighed
separately; in fact, every class of mail
and some sub-classes must be Kept
apart n the weight recorded. In the
second class there is the mai at pound
rates, at pound rates a sample copies.
mai that goes free in the county where
it originates and that going at a tran
silent rate of l cent for four ounces.
This affects the newspaper mail receiv-
ed from local publishers.
Equipment to Be Weighed.
A separate record must be kept al
sc of the third and fourth classes and
all frank and penalty matter, together
with the total weight of equipment
used, which includes the pouches and
bags used in handling the mail be-
tween the p~ostofice and the railway
mail cars at the depot. The record
this year will be more complete, as
well as covering a longer period than
heretofore, and Postmaster Beltz be-
lieves that a separate clerk will be
necessary for this.
Makes Extra Work.
The separation of the mail into
classes is going to consume more time
than under the present regulations.
Newspapers from the office of publica'
ton must be separated into different
s~ub-classes of second class and after
wards sorted by clerks at the post
Office after it ha been weighed. Let
tiers, of course, go as first class and
can be weighed together, but the diff
ferent divisions make extra work be-
fore and after weighing.

we can produce copper profitably
at the present price," is the state
ment of General Manager w. C
orem. And they are doing it.
All the drifts from the 400 leveI
down. in the Ludwig, are being thor
oughly developed. IL each large
bodies of ore are exposed carrying
values of a shipping grade.
On the Nevada-D Douglas proper the
men are working in ore in the east
crosscut from the main tunnel. Here
sulphides in large quantities are be-
ing encountered assaying on an aver
age Of a. per cent copper.
The rumor will not down that the
company is intending the early con-
struction of a smelter to handle its
output on the ground. While those
closely related to the company's af-
fairs are non-communicative concern
ing the subject. one might be allow
ed the guess that such is their inten-
ton Judging by their actions.
Enough ore is now in sight in the
various workings of the Ludwig to
than offset the purchase price of that
great mine. When this estate was
added to the acreage of the Nevada
Douglas company, it meant an outlay
of between 100000 and $500, 900.
Considering the fact that no stopping
has been done, the showing is indeed
remarkable. The ore in sight to the
amount of the purchase price is
shown in the workings resultant from
development.
The Ludwig has paid its own way
from the very start, enough ore be-
ing extracted in the ordinary course
of opening up the property to pay
the expenses incident to proving up
a mine.
All the surface and underground
workings are now being electrically
lighted. Other improvements of a
like nature are under way, which,
when completed, will add materially

Free Turkeys
For NeVdddnS

Nevada is to be the first state in
the Union to pay substantial tribute
TO Americas national Bird the
turkey, if the plans of several we'll
known legislators are carried out. 1t
is proposed to introduce a bill at the
proposed coming session of the legis-
lature, establishing a state farm for
the propagation of turkeys. The birds
are to be raised on the prison
grounds near Carson. The labor is
to be performed by the convicts.
Each year, a few days previous to the
governors Thanksgiving proclams-
ton one turkey is to be sent to each
of the many families now residing
within the borders of this state.
James McElroy, former assembly
man from Eureka county, who has
been residing in Reno for the past
several years received a letter from
Felix Rice. an old Eureka friend. a
few days ago, in which it stated that
the proposed bill for a state turkey
farm is to be introduced by Senator
Frank Bossemer of Eureka county.
James Boyd, senior senator from
Washoe county, favors the measure
heartily. 1T is a good idea" said
Senator Boyd yesterday. Il will sup
port such a measure. Nevada will
then be the first state in the Union to
substantially recognize Thanksgiving
day. If we think enough of the us
tom to declare a holiday each No
vember nothing could add more 10
its interest than providing each of
the families in the state with at least
one turkey. There will be many fam
lilies this year who will be thankful
to get a chicken. Forty cents a pound
certainly makes the national bird a
luxury. With the turkey farm in OPP
Grafton the cost TO the taxpayers
would not be great. The convicts at
the state prison could easily do the
work required to raise the birds.
Then there is plenty of ground to
keep them on and most of the feed
could be raised. Yes, the more !
think of the proposition the more
favor It,"
81 certainly favor free turkeys fol
the people of Nevada said Al
Holmes, assemblyman from this
county last evening. The idea of a
turkey farm is indeed a good one. II
would be practically no trouble tc
, raise the 5000 or more birds re
J quired each Thanksgiving day an
the people would appreciate it, too
Convicts could easily do all the work
, required. There is an abundance o
t ground around the state prison
Some of this could be cultivated anC
enough cor and grain could be rails

would be a good way to keep thu
convicts employed. The quarry keep

SEVEN TROUGHS A
PERMANENT CAMP

When a company like the Seven
Troughs Mining company gets eigh-
teen inches of such ore as one a see
coming from the shaft. and gets it on
the 500-foot level at that, one can
hardly doubt that the Seven Troughs
district has at depth, and
that the camp Is a permanent one"
stated L. B. Moore Tuesday on re-
turning from this district. Mr.. Moore
showed some of this rich rock, and
it is typically Seven Troughian, lit
terally full of the rich stuff. He
deems the Seven Troughs mine men
ton as n of the greatest in all Ne
vada, and doubt If any in that state
can beat it when it come tos value
OF ore actually in sight.
He also brings with him some news
and good ore from the property Of
the Seven Troughs Eclipse ground,
likewise a Salt Lake organization,
the ore now being in Manager Craig's
Atlas block office. The Eclipse has
not only the location, points out Mr..
Moore, but it has the richest surface
showing in the district. Ten sets of
leasers are now sacking rich ore and
a day or two ago on block No. 2 was
made a rich strike of the yellow
metal rock. This portion of the
Eclipse was sounded to a 50-foot
depth, and a drift run for forty feet.
OF this drift, twenty-one feet were in
ore, the last eleven feet running SIS
to $52 gold per ton, while twelve in
ches averaged from $500 to $500 per
ton.
The camp, he states, is all right.
and will make history for Nevada of
the most honorable character. On in
formation from the management of
the Seven Troughs Mining company,
he predicts this organization next
