Freewater, Jan. 16.-Tuesday
afternoon mass meeting was held
for the purpose of discussing the
proposed dyling district. Charles L.
Swain was called upon to again dem
onstrate the necessity for such a
step, and no opposition of any weight
was heard to such scheme. Attor-
ney c. T. Goodwin made a few re-
marks concerning the matter in
which he stated that the present
dyking law was not sufficient to
cover the needs at this place. A new
and fuller law suited to localities
situated as this one is, was proposed,
and a meeting was called for the
23d OF January, at which time the
new law will be in readiness for dis
cussion. It will then be taken to Sa-
lem by Mr.. Goodwin, when it will be
introduced to the legislature.
Charles L. Swain and Percy Cupper
were Pendleton visitors during the
fore part of the week,

Mining Man Says Emma Bowler Dis
trict is q Conner.


trict is Conner.
The new mining district called the
Emma Bowler in Nye county is liable
to turn out to be on the map as a
shipper.
The camp is situated forty miles
south of Austin and some very rich
gold ore is being found as work pro-
crosses. Little more than the neces-
sary location work has been done on
the majority of the claims but in all
directions float rock can be picked up
that assays as high as $4,000 a ton.
Jim Ward, who is known to almost
every Cripple Creek prospector as
we'll as miner, arrived in town yes
terday and he is firm in the convic-
ton that the camp will be winner.
He is an experienced miner and pros
pector and has grown grey following
his vocation He is not as enthusi-
astic as he was twenty years ago
when the sight of piece of free gold
or a favorable assay made him be-
lieye that he had mine. He has
become conservative with age and eX-
perience. He liked the looks of the
Emma Bowler district and made a
| large number of locations with his
| friends last winter but not until re-
| Gently were they able to get values
| from ore in place that would war
rant them in the belief that they had
mine. They were able to get as
says on float that went from $500 to
| $500 ton. Then they went to work
in earnest and on one of the claims
uncovered four-foot ledge of quartz
and Ward brought 662 pounds OF
| the rock to Millers where it was
| sampled. 1t was in the nature of q
mill run and he checked up the re
suit at Tonopah. The ore went a.
the rate of 1888 ton and all the
values, practically. were in gold. HI
