ward a undermining of the States fl

reconstruct the laws creating the Office
Of auditor Of accounts and make that
officer a State comptroller, with veto
powers. The laws governing this Office
are somewhat vague, really giving the
auditor little more authority than an

JEFFE1soM CANYON PROPERTY
BONDED ron 9l66,0o

Again the big Kanrohat property in
Jefferson canyon is under bond to a
coterie of capitalists and this time 1t
through.
A force of men has been put to work
driving the unnel on Sierra Nevada
No. 3. which is now in 400 feet and
which is expected to tap the ledge on
Starry Flag claim at 600 feet. This
work will be the means of proving up
an ore body of almost ~incalculable ex-
tent. Already on this wonderful prop
erty it is co~nservatively estimated that
there is enough ore blocked out to run
a 100-ton mill for 20 years without sink
ing any deeper.
The Kanrohat property is the key to
the whole Jefferson mining situation.
Fifteen full claims and a fraction are
included in the acreage, entirely sur
rounding the old Jefferson mine. which
produced over $1,000, 900 during the
early seventies.
The Sierra Nevada group was located
over 80 years ago by Charles ]. Kanro-
hat. Since then Mr.. Kanrohat has
worked the ground almost continuously
taking out in the neighborhood Of $780,
haps $4,000. Today he has over a mile
of tunnels, drifts and shafts and accord
ing to competent experts. about a million
ton of ore in sight. The immensely of
this proposition can only be realized by
a visit to the mines.-Round Mountain
