St. Johns review. (Saint Johns, Or.) 1904-current, 1908-06-05

The St. Johns float attracted con.
siderable attention among those OF
the parade and was termed the
New revelation from the modern
Patmos by ST. Johns dreamer. /"
Just you wait IS or 90 years aud
you will see a fulfllment of the
prophecy to the letter. We are in
the procession and riding in the
first car; aud there are no black
plumcs OH the horses, either.

Yes, the town has gone dry.
but we have not got much to crow
over, Had to get University Park
to help us. We believe that il ST.
Johns had made the fight alone we
would have gone dry with bigger
vote than we did Monday. We be.
lieve the vote if taken alone at the
Park would have been heavier on
the dry side. But as il was, il
looked to many like the University
Park was butting in where they
had no business. 1t was perfectly
legal, however, and has been SO
held by the supreme court. 1t is
now up to the drys to make good
during the next two years in order
that they may keep the city dry in
the future. This can be done il all
will work together for the advance
ment and prosperity of the city.
Let Us lay aside all personal ami
mostly that may be harbored at
present against anyone in the city
and push shoulder to shoulder for
the best interests OF all

ELKO GROU
SOLD By SNYDER


Last week Willard F. Snyder, OF
Salt Lake, went to New York and as
result of that trip it is announced
that the property of the Elko Prince
has been transferred to New York
capitalists, says the Elko Free Press
Mr.. Snyder is the president of the
company, owning the Baltimore
group at Lone Mountain, sometimes
known as the Weston Mine.
The Elko group comprises 100
acres of Ehler Mountain. The Midas
is on one side and the Gold Crown on
the other
Primarily the property was locat-
ed by Paul Ehlers, the Luck
Dutchman," who, by series Of
crosscuts, exposed the gold-bearing
leads, numerous of which cross the
group. These leads are good sized,
the main one on which most work is
being prosecuted is from IL to 16
feet wide on outcrop, and where
depth has been attained is widening
as it goes down. In the 6O-foot shaft.
with a gratifying regularity, is a
two-foot liner that assays from $50
to $3.50 per ton. The balance of the
lead assays SIS. With ultimate tun-
mel openings and the Elko Prince has
famous tunnel Advantages, there Is
every condition favorable for min
ing and milling on cheap basis. The
property is being worked by leasers
and on company account, and wher
ever this diligence is applied the re-
Spouse is of such kind as to place
the Elko Prince in line with the
great. gold mines of the West.

BIG DEALS ARE
GOING THROUGH

The men Of money are coming to
Rawhide. This week two big deals
went through. The control of the
Rawhide Queens Mines Company, on
which estate is the famous Kearns
No.2 lease,was optioned by New York
and Philadelphia capital, at a valu-
alton of one million dollars for the
entire mine. The first payment on
the two Mascot claims was made in
Reno, the deal on that property hav-
ing been put through last week.
A million dollars for a mine which
five months ago had nothing further
than some rich surface showings
to boast of, is a pretty fine thing in
any camp, and the best possible ad-
vertisement Of the resources of the
camp. The showing on the Kearns
No. 2 did the. work, and the Eastern
experts who were sent here to in
spect those showings were unani-
nous in their praise of the ground.
In the past to weeks there have
been dozen experts on the ground,
and the men, of the London Venture
Company want to get in here, eithsr
in the Rawhide Consolidated Mines
Company or the. Coalition. Two ex-
perts from the house of Rothschil1
are on their way hither from Europe.
A mill of 40 tons daily capacity
was shipped today from the Union
Iron Works in San Francisco; the
Murray lease people will begin the
construction of a ten-stamp mill
within 20 days. H. w. Throckmor-
ton, who has been here from New
York for six weeks, has advised his
principals to commence the construc-
ton of a 200-ton mill on the fiat
right away. Anderson, of the Waite:
Works, will soon begin the construc-
ton of a 200-ton mill, and A. A.
Codd has already started in upon this
construction of a ten-stamp mill:
and the little Gates mill down in the
fiat has more work than it can take
care of, and the owners are enlarg-
ing their plant. ii
Options on several properties are
held by outsiders, and two more
deals have been practically closed by
Mr.. Throckmorton. The banking
situation is in fair way of being
settled, and national bank will be
Installed here. The plant of the
Rawhide Water ana Reduction Com.
pany wills begin arriving here this
afternoon. In the opinion of the
men who have given the greatest
study to the conditions of the camp,
bedrock has been touched and Raw
aide is on the rebound. In the
meantime development produces
more gold, and strikes are as fra
quent as ever, only that they are be-
ing made at greater depth, The out
look for Rawhide is as good, if not
better, than that of any camp in the
world today. -Rawhide News.

subsidies somewhat that it will be
possible to find it. The Indians Of
the reservation have continued to
search, but owing to the high stage
OF tie river 1t was impossible for
them to find any trace.
Mr.. Scott, who is to direct the sys-
tematic search now, is an experienced
water man and will begin at the point

WINTER IS NOT CANDIDATE.
Win Not Race With Phelps for Dis.
trict AttOrneysiSip Nomination.

That he will not be a candidate for
the republican nomination for dis
trict attorney was declared by ]. P.
Wtnter In an interview this morning.
Though he has been asked by some
OF his friends to make the race and
had considered the matter to some
extent, he says he has aadided not to
go upon the track against District
Attorney Phelps who is seeking a re-
nomination.
Thus far Mr.. Winter is the only
republican attorney mentioned as a
rival for Mr.. Phelps and SO 1t now
seems that the present incumbent will
secure the somination without Oppo-
sition.
