Substance Having Wonder
ful Cleansing Proper
ties Exhibited

Geo. Edwards of Panaca
brought to town this week, a
substance, which seems to con.
tain all the elements of a very
good soap. Some of it was tried
in the RECORD office and it had
a wonderful effect, clearing away
the ink, etc., accumulating on
the printers hands and other
places around the shop.
The water in Phoebe is what il
termed very hard" but when
this new substance is placed into
1t, this qualityis entirely changed
and gives to the water a wonder
tul cleansing property. There is
a certain amount of grit contain
ed in this earth, but with this
eliminated, it would be a very
desirable Ingredient for use as a
soap.
1t is found about seventeen
miles from Panaca, and exper-
will be made shortly to
determine what, if any, market
able value it may have.

We understand it to be the
policy of the Nevada-Utah Cor
poration to continue shipping
from the Day mine in a SUBJ
stantial manner, and to this end
a large force of men will be en-
ployed there. The side tracks
and ore bins for the narrow
guage will be rushed to compile
ton, at which time it will be
possible to handle a greater vol
ume than at present, and when
the present situation shall have
cleared away, the above COM
pany, with the assistance of the
many other producers here, will
be eagerly sought after by the
many smelling concerns for their
extensive patronage.

Fetterman
Comes Through
$4,000 in =" Stringency
Gold Paid Over.

The Lincoln County Bank In.
corporated, has filed suit against
the Caliente Mercantile Com
pany and Geo. C. Fetterman,
demanding judgment for the
sum of $4,000. The said sum
is alleged to be due upon certain
promlssory notes given by the
defendants, jointly, to the plain
tiff for money loaned the said de-
PENDANTS. A writ of attachment
was issued and placed in the
hands of the sheriff for service.
Chas. Lee Horsey is attorney
for the plaintiff.
Before the attachment in the
above suit was levied, the de-
PENDANTS made a settlement pay
ing to the plaintiff, $4,000 in
gold coin, and the action has
been dismissed.

Should Repair
the Leaks

We would like to make a sup.
gestion to the Phoebe Water
Company. that they have many
leaks in the water mains through
out town repaired immediately
This is a matter of public i'm
portance, for the reason that
should the present conditions be
allowed to continue, the result
will be frozen pipes and no
water. We have had experiences
of this kind before and do not
care to have them again, and a
little attention will in a large
measure obviate this.
On Lacour street, for instance.
there are are two leaks, which
have to our knowledge been rum
ming for weeks. Some attempts,
to be sure, have been made to
repair them, but without the de-
sired result. If this cannot be
permanently remedied without
it, why not put in new pipes.
The public are entitled to good
service and all reasonable pre-
cautions should be taken to fur
lish it.

Present Law is
Good Enough
Passage of Act Doing Away
With Work For 1907
Not Beneficial

Notwithstanding the many
protests being made against his
proposed measure, Congressman
Bartlett still insists that he will
make an effort to have a bill in
troduced, doing away with the
necessity of the 1907 assessment
work. Many people throughout
the state are fighting this step
and we believe that it would be
more detrimental than helpful.
For instance, here in Phoebe
and surrounding districts, there
are several companies holding
large areas of ground. Upon
this ground not one dollar is ex-
pended outside of the necessary
assessment work. The corpor-
ations holding these claims are
amply able to have the necessary
work done, thus expending sew
eral thousand dollars, which we
would otherwise be without. In
such cases it is a good thing that
there is some compulsory measure
to make these people loosen IN
otherwise, we would not derive
one dollars benefit because of
their holdings here.
In this section, it is a fact,
that the larger companies alone
would be benefited. In the great
of cases those people
but one claim have that
work completed. We would en-
oathatically say to the PROPOSE
ion, let the law remain as it is,
believing that greater interests
would be subserved thereby.

San Pedro LOOses Out.

In his argument before the
United States court in the raj
road cases, Judge Bartine prac.
tically put the San Pedro, Los
Angeles and Salt Lake railroad
out" of the suits. The move
of the attorney came as a sur.
prise to the railroad attorneys,
and they could not reply to his
arguments.
The question was one of juris-
diction. In order that a case
may be filed in the United States
courts, the. amounts involved
must be over the sum $1,000,
and this was the point raised by
the Nevada jurist. From the
sworn statements of the officials
OF the road it appears that the
total local freight affected by
the Syphus bill amounts to the
sum of 81, 2,125 the first year and
an amount slightly in excess of
that for the last year. The rail-
road argued that the enforce
ment of the maximum rates of
the Syphus bill would mean a
reduction of about Is per cent
from this amount, Of slightly
over $500 in each case. AS a
consequence the amount involved
was not over $4,000, but only be-
tween $500 and $1,000 far below
the amount required in order to
gain a hearing in the United
States court. The shrewd move
of Mr.. Bartine has caused con-
siderable comment among the
members of the legal profession,
and also much worry to the
plaintiff railroad. Carson News.

Seventy Men
Are Drafted

The Nevada-Utah Company
curtailed their forces somewhat
this week about seventy men
being let out. 1t is thought that
this will have no very serious eff
feet, inasmuch, as it is the in
tention to greatly increase the
force at the Day Mine, rumor
having it that about one hundred
and fifty men will be employed at
this later mine.
We have been unable to learn
the cause of this shut down, but
from facts obtainable, believe it
to be only temporary.
We are officially informed that
the Nevada-Utah corporation is
prepared to continue the shut
down of the mines here for one
year II necessary. 1t will, as
above stated, depend very large
Iy upon the metal market. 1T
should not be understood that
the closing of the mines is made |
necessary for want of ore, but
strictly for the reason that the
company has no disposition to
market its ore at a disadvantage.
Advices from the smelters are to
'he effect that they do not want
my ore, and are taking that
llone which is under contract.
The Day ore is in demand at all
lines, but this is being sold at
! loss.

Thanksgiving
Proclamation

The time is nearat hand when,
according to the custom of oul
people, a day should be set apart
and devoted to thanksgiving
prayer and praise to the All
mighty God for the many bless
lngs bestowed upon us during
the year fast drawing to close;
Now, therefore, |, John
Sparks, Governor of the State of
Nevada, do hereby designate and
declare Thursday, the 28th dav
of November, A. D., 1907,
Thanksgiving Day.
To the Supreme Ruler of the
Universe during the year, we
have everything to be thankful
for He has given us sunshine
and showers and natural condi-
tons for the production of boun-
tlful crops from an inexhaus-
tible soil. He has given us pure
air to breathe, productive of
health and happiness. Neither
pestllence nor calamities have
come through His dispensation.
For which all should be humbly
grateful.
The people of this state, as in
the case of many others, are f.
nancially distressed, but this is
not attributable to God. The
avaricious tendency of man is
,esponsible for the misery and
distress now prevailing. It is,
however, to be hoped that the
cloud will soon be dispersed and
business resume normal condi-
ions, conservative and safe for
he benefit of all classes.
On Thanksgiving Day, as YOU
meet in family and friendly re- |
lnion, remember the poor and |
leedy with gifts Of comfort and |
oy.

treat Seal of the State of Ne
ada, at the Capitol, in Carson

Extra Session
Contemplated
Governor Communicates With Our
Representative to Ascertain Sen
timent of Lincoln County

There is considerable agitation
throughout the state in relation
to the calling of an extra session
OF the legislature. The Gold
field papers holding this to be
the most practical means of re-
lieving the money stringency.
Also 1t is thought advisable to
extend the time for the payment
OF taxes. An extra session of
the legislature Of California will
be called for this purpose. JUS
tice Sweeney of the supreme
court contends that the calling
of the extra session would result
in nothing but additional ex-
pense.
Senator Campbell was in re-
ceipt of a communication from
Governor Sparks this week, ask
leg the Senator to ascertain the
sentiment of the people of Lin
coin county in regard to the con-
vening Of an extra session of the
legislature.

for the taking out of the ore, it
will be Immediately extracted
and shipped to the smelters.
This body of ore, which was
tapped by way of the Pacific
Tunnel and a shaft of the Last
Change claim, is one of the
greatest in point of quantity and
richness that has been encount-
cred in the district for years.
The shaft now on the property
is impractical as a working shaft
and it was found necessary to
sink a new one before any vol
ume of work could be done.
An air power engine has been
installed on the new shaft and it
is doing its work nicely. The
air power is generated at the

veral hundred feet to the new
shaft. No loss of power is ex-

The first car load of ore to be

many more are ready to follow
as soon as they can be handled.
