No WORKING IS

White Pine Property Showing
Splendidly as Depth Is

IN VERY SHORT TIME
Company Preparing to Market

Snow Leaves.

Although the management OF the

critics of that organization for more
than three months, spending the time
prior to December ! in prospecting the
group and erecting the needful build
ings. there is not a working upon the
whole group without face of ore,
This fact was vouched for Thursday
by Superintendent O. Weiser. who is
opening the property for tho Salt Lake
stockholders. Mr.. Weiscr states that
up to the middle of the present month
the management had not demonstrated
the permanency of the property to his
complete satisfaction, but the present
developments more than convince him
that this company has fine mine
A few days ago the management ran
into an ore body in the lower, or No. D.,
tunnel at Il point 320 feet from the por-
tai. and at a vertical depth on the
vein of 800 feet. At tho time this
resource was found the management did
not fully realize its Importance. and it
remained for lot TO be sent to Salt
Lake for assay. Assay returned showed
the value of the ledge to run $4,000
gold per ton, the same being from two
and half to three feet in width. A
foot streak in this ledge runs $50 per
ton The ore is now being taken out
and placed upon the dumps preparatory
TO sending 1t to the local ore market.
An upraise from the lower tunnel.
200 feet from the portal. has been
driven for 100 feet. and Mr.. Weiser
states that there are two feet OF mill
ing grade ore in this working. At the
same time winze is being sunk upon
the chute in fine milling grade rock.
There is sufficient milling orc npon the
dumps and available elsewhere upon
this property to keep the mill running
for year, and the new showings not
only are adding to the food for this
plant at generous rate, but they are
serving TO demonstrate the merits OF
the resources as depth is gained upon
them. The mill viii be ready for op,

BY March ! Mr.. Weiser expects the
snow TO be gone so that the shipping
ore now piling up can be sent from the
mine to market. The company has Just
completed a new road from the mine to
the Nevada Northern tracks that brings
the property within seven miles of the
trucks, thus cutting off eighteen miles
from former conditions. Mr.. Wciser is
more than pleased with the present
showings in the mine and great credit
is due him for making such splendid
progress during the short time he has
been in charge of the mine.

MINERS MUST KEEP
BEYOND DEAD LINE
Prominent Mining Man Sounds
Warning About Land in
Humboldt County.

A prominent mining man, we'll versntl
in conditions prevailing in the county
OF Humboldt, New, stated THURSDAY
that a matter that should be taken INTO
careful consideration by all prospectors
going into Humboldt county this. sun,
mer is the condition of much mineral
land on both sides OF the Southern Pa,
cific railroad tracks 1t should be we
known that this company was granted
by the government each alternate sec,
tion of land within twenty miles or
the railroad line. and the prospcctcr
who takes up mineral land within the
tabooed extent is liable to find trouble
with the railroad company In store tcr
him, and at best some very expensive e
and extensive litigation.
There nre some organizations IN
which Salt Lake capital is interested
that are attempting TO determine their
rights as against the railroad company,
and some valuable precedcnts for future
guidance should be the outcome of this
litigation There has been doubt eT'
pressed over the proper manner OF pro-
cceding in the premises, and the gen
tleman in question advises all who hay g
not long pocketbo books 10 conhne their
activities well out Of the twenty-mlle
limit
Fortunately, however, the county Of
Humboldt is as large AS 1T ls rich In
minerals, and there is no reason for
the prospector to range within the pro-
hibitcd limits. Some splendid discoy-
cries arc being made beyond the TWEEN
ty-mile point, and it is safe to predict
that even better results than those here,
tofore achieved will be the result OF
the unprecedented activity of the pres
out season.

BIC SAVING FOR
MAY DAY COMPANY
Sixteen Cars En- Route Will Be
Marketed Under Very Fa-
yOrable Conditions.
NEW CONTRACT SAVES
TWO THOUSAND DOLLARS
Stockholders Pleased at Sue.
cess of Company in Making
New Contract.

Results of tremendous benefit to the
May Day Mining company are already
beginning to tell under the contract
Just entered into by President and
Manager J. E. Darmer with the Ameri.
can Smelling and Refining company,
The new contract is one Of the most
distinct victories for the May Day ever
recorded in its history, and no end of
favorable comment has arisen at Mr..
Darmcr's s success. The May Day com
pany has, enroute from the mine and
at the sampler in this valley, total
of l6 cars of ore. When asked Thurs
day what the probable saving TO the
company would be from these ship
ments under the new contract, Manager
Darmer stated that tho estimated pro-
fit over the old conditions would be in
the neighborhood of $4,000.
He stated that these cars should be
called 30-ton lots, although each will
perhaps contain greater quantity OF
ore. The actual saving should be con-
siderably over the amount he fixed, but
Mr., Darmer wisely prefers to raise his
estimate in the future, when the set.
Elements are made, rather than be
forced TO lower it.
Like numerous shippers of ore from
the Unite and other Utah districts, the
MAY Day company is finding prompt
shipments n matter of considerable diff
iculty. Cars sent from the mine week
or more ahead Of other cars arc liable
to arrive a week or more behind them,
so that there can be no positive plans
formed in which the arrival of cars
is Il vital consid deration. This condi.
tion naturally retards shipments, and
while the May Day is making an excel
lent showing, even a better one will be
the result Of more equal transportation
facilities.
The present season gives every prom
ise of being an ideal one for the organi-
cation, for Mr.. Darmer states that the
property is in first class condition.

more of splendid achievements the Yer

tcntiou on the part of the big fellows

from this camp, and he states that there
are numerous representatives OF the
Amalgamated, the Guggenheims and
other large copper interests now scour-

Mr.. Flindt states that there is an un-
usual amount of activity in Gerlngton,
new companies are being formed, and
among them are several Salt Lake com
binations TO take over newly acquired
