Where, O. Where
Can He Be :?
Deputy State Superintend-
ent of Schools Not Yet
Seen in This County

What can be the matter with
the Deputy State Superintendent
of Schools for this district ? His
presence is certainly required in
this portion of the district. Since
the new law took effect, placing
the supervision of the schools
under the state superintendent
and his deputies, we have not
been favored by a visit from this
latter official. although he has
drawn something over $1,1O as
this county's proportion of his
salary. This would not be so bad
were the different school districts
throughout the county instructed
as to the requirements of the
new law, but they are entirely
ignoront of the same with a few
exceptions, and this is entailing
no little amount of work on the
county auditor and district attor-
ney, thinking that he is still SUI
pervising the schools. The new
law requires that all orders for
school money shall be drawn by
II
the trustees on the county audit
or, and shall be signed by the
clerk and president of the board.
Instead, however, the orders are
coming to the auditor in the old
way. He has written each school
district and cited them to the
law, but they are not familiar
with it, and have no means at
hand so to become. Someone
should distribute necessary
blanks and instructions and get
this matter Strengthened out as
quickly as possible, by so doing
they would confer a favor upon
the residents of Lincoln county.

MacSherry, E. Greenwood and

the many good things in a min
eral way which can be found in
Pioche, and to say, judging from
the many expressions made by
members of the party in the

this paper, that they were pleas
ed, is putting it lightly.

been completed, the owner should
in every way be justified in the
confidence he has expressed in
the property by the opening UP
of a great producer.
Anderson is also prosecuting

trict, which is very encouraging,
and a number of properties con-
trolled by him will be working

Big Deposit Of
Ore Uncovered
The Lucky Star Gold Mining Company
Opens Big Mine at Jackrabbit

Very flattering is the showing
on group of claims owned by
the Lucky Star Gold Mining
company situated in Jackrabbit
mining district. The writer was
afforded the pleasure of inspect
ing these claims during the week
through the courtesy of General
Manager E. F. Prudential. The
quantity of ore blocked out and
the extent of the ore body as
determined by development was
certainly good to look at. These
claims were purchased by the
above-nalned company a year
ago, since when men have been
employed developing them.
Little has been said of the pro-
perty, and to the general public
it was unknown that such a mag
nifcent showing existed. The
group consists of ten claims sit
uate in close proximity to the
Ida May mine. A very strong
fissure is shown and is traceable
for many hundreds of feet along
the property. The body of ore
has been determined to be at
least forty feet in width. It's
character is such that it is a de-
sirable fiux as we'll as carrying
good values in gold, silver and
lead. The formation and occur
ences of ore are similar to those

of the famous Day mine, a mile
and a-half east of these claims
on the same mineral belt, and
which has over 100000 tons of
ore blocked out.
A road is being constructed to
the property, and it is the inten-
ton to haul this ore to the mar
row gauge railroad, a distance
of one and a-half miles, from
whence it will be transported to
the Caliente & Phoebe railroad
for delivery to the smelters, the
returns of which should bring a
nice profit to the company.
A survey for a patent for these
claims has just been completed,
and the patent will be secured as
soon as possible. Altogether the
work is being done in substan-
tial manner. Mr.. Prudential
has been instrumental in bring
ing to the front many of the hea-
Wy producing mines of the Bris-
tol and Jackrabbit districts, but
he is candid in the statement
that in none of them were the
showings from the beginning
in any manner as encouraging as
that of the present property.
Tonnage in this instance is what
the management is going after,
and there is no reason why it
should not be realized, for all
that remains is to dig it out.
The Pioche weekly record. [volume] (Pioche, Nev.) 1906-1908, 1907-11-16

property has been opened up by
three tunnels, the longest being
seventy-feet in length, showing
up about six feet of ore averag-
ing $40 in gold and silver, with
two feet running in the neigh
borhood Of $65. There is an i'm
mense cropping of oxodized
quartz on the surface fully twelve
feet wide that can be traced the
entire length of the claim, and
assays have been received run
ming as high as $24 along this
immense lead. Superintendent
John Taylor expects to commence
regular shipments in short time
and put two shifts to work at
once on the property.
Superintendent H. E. Spanogle
shipped a carload of high grade
ore this week to the Salt Lake
smelters, and will make a weekly
shipment from now on of only
high grade ore. The manage
ment contemplates installing a
large concentrating plant to han
die the output of this property.
Since the recent big strike has
been made developing forces have
been doubled, and there is suffi-
cient ore in sight blocked out to
warrant the installation of a
plant Of this kind.
Searchlight as a mining camp
is beginning to loom up as a me-
tropolis. The building Of which
has been going on for the past
year, has not diminished in the
least, on the contrary, a new op-
era house and many large and
substantial buildings are in the
course of erection. Where an
automobile would have caused a
sensation some time ago, it is nc
uncommon thing now to see a
dozen lined up in front of any
office.

Staufer Talks of
Phoebe Mines
Tells Salt Lake Herald
What He Thinks of
This District

One of the most enthusiastic
men to have visited the camp of
Pioche recently is DR.. Fred
Stauffer, who, in company with
others, has been making a
thorough inspection of the Prince
company's properties and the
Susan Duster property of the
Ohio-Kentucky company, having
as pilots Colonel James L. Hack
EFT and Anthony H. Godbe.
Il really don't know how to
explain to you what a big mine
the Susan Duster is, said DR..
Stauffer last evening, and, as
matter of fact, the manage
ment does not know, as the
limits of the great bodies or ore
have not yet been determined.
between the 200 and 400 foot
levels there is a body of fine ore
that has been crosscut for forty
feet without finding either wall.
1t is being prospected as rapidly
as possible on the 200, a winze
is going down through it for the
400, while a drift is being push
ed ahead to develop it on the
400 level. There is no telling
how big it will prove to be, but
it looks strong enough to last
forever. | was simply amazed
at the showing that has been
made in this mine and there is
no doubt of its developing into
one of the sensational discoveries
of that famous district. +"
At the Prince the doctor con-
fessed to being simply bewild-
cred by the amount ore that he
saw. Here there is simply a
mountain of magnificent smelt-
ing ore that has been proved up
from the from the grassroots to
a depth of 300 feet, and for 125
or more feet in width. This
great body of ore, the doctor
says. can undoubtedly be mined
with steam shovels, for if it is
anything it is a great big quarry
ing proposition. DR.. Stauffer
brought up a great many SAM
pies from both properties and
saw a good many assays made
while at camp, but when ques-
toned he was too busy to go into
detail, owing to his long absence
from the office. He has beer
interested in these propositions
for some time, but he never i'm.
agined just what they amounted
to until he made this pilgrimage
to camp. Before he fully com
prehends the situation he vii
have to wait until the knowledge
he gained has had time to 'soal
in. Salt Lake Herald.

Searchlight
Remains Firm
Financial Disturbance Does
Not Retard Develop
ment Work

Searchlight, New, Nov. 10
The vast quantities of gold ore
now in sight in the different
producing mines in Searchlight
are a limitless indemnity in the
future of the camp. The siege
of discomfort which has clouded
the financial interest of the coun-
try has overlooked Searchlight
entirely. Not one single operat-
ing property has been forced to
close on account of financial diff
ficulties. On the other hand,
several developing companies
whose stock has been placed on
the public market, are busily en-
gagged installing expensive
plants.
During the last few days the
Searchlight Gold Beam Mining
company commenced active op-
erations on their group of claims
adjoining the Philadelphia
Searchlight, four miles north
east of camp. A 12-horsepower
Fairbanks-Morse gasoline hoist
with blower, cable, buckets,
tanks and all other needed and
necessary equipments has been
installed. The deepest shaft at
present is down eignty-fve feet,
exposing a lage body of medium
grade ore. 1t is well known in
this district that the best values
are not obtained until water level
is reached, and the shaft is being
sunk with all speed to the depth
where it is presumed nay ore
will be encountered.
Superintendent ?. Sales is also
working a force of men on the
Majestic Gold Frog adjoining,
where a similar plant will be in
stalled in the near future. On
this property they have an excel
lent showing of copper stained
quartz carrying values in gold,
silver and copper. In common
with the other surrounding prop
critics the lodges trend northeast
and southwest, dipping to the
east.
