SPRUcING UP AT STATELINE
Gold Springs Also Giving Good Ae'
count of Itself.

Modena. Utah, March 11-Leasers are
sndeavoring to get hold of the old BuTro
property at StateliDe, owned by Ike
Woolfe and associates OF Salt Lake City.
1t is rumored that rich ore IS IN cyl
dence on the property at some point
where no work has been done. The ap-
plieants fer a lease have so far been
turned down and the owners have eN-
PRESSED their intention of Tesuming opera
tions in the old workings of the property
this year. The BurrO was the first snip
per of ere from the Statelii:e district and
has not been operated for years: IL is
silver-producing property, with small
gold values.

munication with the camp, keeping
close watch on weather conditions with
view of starting as soon as the weather
has definitely settled.
Reports from the Gold Springs district
are growing more flattering as the ex-
ploration work on the various properties
progresses. The report of strike is
getting TO be a common occurrence and
in eacn instance so far has proven to be
no idle rumor.
Cecil Newell and s. p. Moore have made
disclosures of free gold ore in the Snow
Flake No mining claim, within the past
week, in such abundance that the prop
erty is no longer in doubt as. TO What
success will attend deeper mining.
Reports from the Jumbo state that some
very fine ore. showing much visible free
sold. has been disclosed in the workings
OF that property during the past ten
days.
Charles A. Short and associates in the
new Uvada property are said to have
encountered an ore 6odv that gives everv
promise OF duplicating the rich exhibition
of gold ores in. the Jennie nine.

the thirty pounds of rock thus broken
down was cut down TO about five
pounds. for convenience in shipping.
Returns were had from the assayer
yesterday, and the ore was found To
carry 1.4e ounces gold and "A ounces

of approximately 1875 per ton.

DICK WHITTEM0RE ON
NEVADA LABOR TROUBLES

Rhyolite March 1.-THE miners in the
Lee district. over the state line. in Cali
tornia from RAyolite. have struck for the
Rhyolite scale of wages, now in force
throughout Nevada. and while the Hidden
Treasure, the HoneSsuckle and one or
two other mines have closed down. il is
probable that the question of wages Will
be definitely settled within "A few days,
as the lniTe operators are willing to put
the question in the hands Of an arbitra-
ton COMMITTEES and meet the miners more
than half way in an effort at settlement
y. r. Whittemore of Salt Lake who
represents the NANNY hittemore interests
In southerH Nevada. received the de-
maDds Of the miners. which are for s. a
day FOR men underground. x4-59 day for
surface workers and 81 a day extra for
men on contract work. He laid the queS-
ton before the operators of the Lee Gold
GTOtto, the Hayseed-StatelIne and the
EchO-Lee property. and these men re-
fused to shut down and agreed TO an ar
duration committee In speaking OF the
labor conditions existing, Mr. White
more said:
"As a result of this strike and of the
absurd article that was printed in Ridge
ways by Lindsay Dennison, it is prob
able that another fuss will be stirred up
In the eastern press over the Nevada Ia
Dor conditions.
THE facts are these: There is at this
time complete harmony existing between
the Nevada unions and the operators, ana
the only mistake that has been made mas
been in attempting TO operate in Lee un-
der the. California instead OF under the
Rhyolite rate The operators are willing
TO pay wages that viii attract the skilled
miners Of the country TO southern Ne
vada and the union is willing to foist no
undesirable miners or unskilled laborers
upon the operators. The question of the
change room has been definitely settled
i'm the few mines in which the question
arose"
During the past two years there have
been union labor agitators in Nevada who
were chased out OF Colorado after the
Cripple Creek troubles but the order
loving miners overwhelm them in the
ajority and no trouble from them Is TO
be feared.
All Nevada-Tonopah RhyOlite and
GoIdfield-are union camps, for it hap
pens that the unions can furnish the
skilled labor that is necessary to the de-
velopment of property. while the nom
union men cannot do It,
As it stands the operators will discrlm-
mate in favor of the unions Just so long
as they do not force incompetents upon
the mines.
Stories Of high-grading were grossly
misrepresented in the Goldfield ar
ticIes. for it is probable that not more
than 100 men were employed where speci-
men ore could be carried away, and these
are by no means all thieves.
