DESCRIPTION OF MACHINERY

The owners of the property of this company are such
thorough believers in it that they installed $4,000 worth OF
machinery and began development work without offering a sin
gle share of stock for sale. The equipment consists of one 18-
horse power Western Gas Engine OF the latest make, a Cham
pion blower for ventilation, a 36-foot galows frame, complete
machine and repair shop, oil and powder magazines, lodging
houses, boarding house and every requirement for a big propo-
sition. The 70foot shaft is timbered from top to bottom and
is the finest in the district. Every lick of work done, every
dollars worth of machinery bought is ALL PAID FOR. We
want a little money now for development. We will make a mine
on this property if we DOM sell a single share of stock and 1t
will be our own money that will be used to do it.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PROPERTY

The property of the Buckskin Gold Nugget Mining Com
many comprises four claims of 70 odd acres, located on the
STRONGEST IRON-CAPPED DYKE IN BUCKSKIN, outcrop-
ping many feet high and traversing the entire property. AS
saws can be had anywhere from the dyke, running from $2 to
SIG, while some picked samples give $loo IN golo ana copper
MANY times enough work has been done for patent. The MAN
shaft is down 70 feet, and will catch the ledge at 100 feet on the
dip. Great bodies of fine ore have been found on every similar
ledge in the Buckskin district and a little depth will give us
the ore without fail. We have backed our judgment WITH
OUR MONEY, by buying the property outright and putting
up$ Sc. 900 worth of machinery which is ALL PAID FOR.

NO BLUFF SAYS MILLER.
MI. Bullen in Fifth District Con-
gressiOnal Race to Stay.

A. Q. Miller, editor of the Belle
vile Telescope, and manager of the
congressional campaign of County At
torney Bullen of Republic county, is
in Topeka today for an interview
with the state tax commissions.
Mr.. Miller resents the insinuations
that have been made that Mr.. Bullen
Is candidate in the interests of
w. A. CaIderhead.
Mr.. Bullen is in this race to win,''
said Mr.. Miller today. THE reports
that he is trying to help Calderhead
are false. He is going after the nom
nation.
Some of the newspapers friendly
to other candidates have also intimat-
ed that Mr.. Bullen is not sincere in
his declarations in favor of a direct
primary election law, and q revision
of the tariffs. l am not authorized by
Mr.. Bullen to declare his position on
these issues, but 1 viii say this; that
Mr. Bullen is now getting his law
business into such shape that he can
go out into the district and explain
to the people his exact position in
such matters He will make a series
of speeches at the proper time, and
when he is done. 1 fancy there will
not be any need for people to inquire
just what he means by his statements
II do not believe that there will be
a congressional primary in the Fifth
district, though Mr.. Bullen himself is
perfectly willing to have one I
don't think that Calderhead would
consent to a primary. He is so we'd
ded to the old systems that he could
mt be torn away from them.
Here is an item which will be of
some interest to the people of the
Fifth district; Republic county, which
has never been a dry county, and in
which there have always been sa-
looms, is now closed up tight. Mr.
Bullen has just completed the job,
and do not believe there is an open
saloon or publicly conducted joint in
the county. He has convicted the
king bees of the joint business, and
they are now practically driven out of
business. That's the sort of a fellow
Bullen is. He gets what he goes af-
ter, and he went after the joints
Republic county is on the Nebras-
ka county line. and the border coun-
ties usually have more difficulty in
enforcing the law than interior coun-
ties
Wheat in Republic county is all
cut, and corn is beginning to tassel,"
said Mr.. Miller. I'VE had four inches
of rain last week, and the ground is
we'll soaked. Corn is making a fine
growth. and the indications are that
there will be a good CROP

a special meeting of the council has

low since no bids were received be-
meath the estimate. The first estimate
is for 81 .265.98 and the revision increases
1t to $1.4S5.
