MORE MINERS THAN JOBS

Despite the fact that many properties
in Goldfeid have started work during
the past week and other companies have
increased their working force, there are
still several idle miners in the camp.
This is due to the fact that men seeking
work are pouring in from all directions,
believing that Goldfeld offers better OPP
portunities than the outside camps.
Building operations, which We're at a
standstill since the beginning of the
labor troubles and financial panic, are
revived as a result of the influx of peo-
pie. Although Goldield is the biggest
and best mining camp in the state, il
possesses a great many miners who may
not be able to secure work for months
and a note of warning is sounded to
miners who contemplate coming here at
the present time.

A SUCCESSFUL PRosPEcToR

Claude NJ. Lund returned from the
Seven Troughs mining district Friday
and reports that mining section to be
one of the foremost in the state. The
Mazuma Hills and Seven Troughs Min
ing companies, according to Mr.. Lund,
are producing $4,000 and $4,000 re-
spectively every twenty days.
After arriving in the proincipal min
ing section of the district, Mr.. Lund
found the properties held at such ex-
orbitant figures he was unable to pur-
chase ground at reasonable prices and
decided hat he would follow up the
vein trend of the country in a southerly
direction.
Pursuing his course south he sue
ceeded in locating some ground which
assayed from $25 to $35 on the surface.
After locating the ground Lund was in
formed that he had placed his monu-
ments on alternate section owned by
the Southern Pacific railway. A recent
survey has demonstrated that the
ground is open for location and Mr..
Lund is accordingly jubilant. He will
in Goldfeld for a few days when
he will return to his property and begin
development.

SEVEN TROUGHS SHOWING
ITSELF TO BE PERMANENT

The property of the Seven Troughs
Therien Mines company began its
career as a producer this morning when
the treatment of about thirty tons of
shipping ore from the wihuia Gold
Mines company lease thereon was be-
gun in the ten stamp mill of the Seven
Troughs kindergarten Mining com
pany says the Seven Troughs Miner.
1t was originally intended by the lease
management to ship the ore to the
Selby smelters fer reduction, but this
plan was abandoned, the management
of the kindergarten mill consenting to
suspend the treatment of it's own rock
long enough to make a run of the thirty
tons from the lease.
1t is estimated by the lease manage
ment that the thirty tons of ore, much
of which is of a picture grade, will
average around three hundred dollars
a ton. Although the treasury of the
lease company is in a healthy condition,
it has been the aim of the manage
ment to place the proposition on a self
supporting basis at the earliest pos
sible moment, which will have been ac-
complished when the returns from the
mill run rave been received, and which
will be followed by the most extensive
campaign of work thus far attempted
on the block of ground.
Encouraging Conditions
Conditions of a most encouraging
character prevail on the estate of the
London Seven Troughs Nevada Mining
and Milling company, near Vernon. A
fine tale and quartz ledge, about three
feet wide and lying between porphyry
and basalt dykes, has been opened up
and the incline shaft that is being SUM
on it has reached a depth of forty feet.

NEVADA STOCKS

There has been a very noticeable adj
vance in the price of Nevada mining
stocks during the past three weeks.
Nevada stocks are to the mining bust
ness a good deal like steel and iron
industrials to the general industrial
market-namely, they are a good
barometer. The advance in Nevada
stocks, to our mind, means clearing
weather. The dull, cloudy days of in
activity are passing away. Politics are
already losing ground in the attention
of the public, because of the certainty
of having a good, clean, capable man in
the presidential chair, no matter which
way the election goes. To give some
idea of how material has been the adj
vance in Nevada stocks, we may men
ton that &c stocks advanced such that
the total appreciation amounts to
81, 900, 900. Mining Science.

organization of a miners union in that

ing 90 the miners in the camp for the
purpose Of organizing a union. When

Especial Correspondence.)


Hornsilver, Aug. 13.-The air is full
of deals, and rumors of deals, even as
it is full of a humidity that retards
work in the shafts around the district.
We learn that an option has been given
on the Lime Point Extension mine by
DeVotie and Aberding, upon which a
good strike was made last week, to
some Goldfcld parties; what the figures
or terms are has not yet been disclosed.
1t is also pretty well understood here
that a deal affecting the Grand Central
property, owned by Richards and
Howard, has been consummated, but at
the time this letter is closed we have
been unable to locate either of the
owners and consequently nno give
figures; however, report has it that a
very substantial sum is involved, as is
naturally to be expected in view of the
magnificent showing made by the vari-
Gus leasers and on the company work
ings. There are other propositions
pending, we are informed, and they are
regarded here as straws which show
the way the wind is blowing, and
presage a marked revival of industry
here within a very short time.
Development in most of the prop
critics, outside of the Western, has been
considerably retarded by reason of the
heavy humidity, which has held the
powder smoke and gases in the shafts
and made it practically impossible to

MILL PROGRESSING RAPIDLY

From a number of points in town a
view may be obtained of the giant mill
of the Goldfeld Consolidated Mines
company. During the past week a vast
amount of structural steel work was
completed and the buildings now pre-
sent a stately appearance. The delays,
caused by the failure of the steel to ar
rive on time, are being gradually picked
up by the rapidity of work of the con
struetion crew. A great deal of the
machinery is now in place.

showings that make it clear that the
great ledge will prove a important
factor in determining the vast wealth
of the district. 1t has also been
proven by the development work on
the properties named that the Signal
Peak vein runs parallel to the fabul-
ously rich Seven Troughs or Fairview
ledge, lying from five hundred to one
thousand feet to the west for the entire
distance it has been opened up.
Earmarks of a Bonanza
The Merger lease on the property of
the Seven Troughs Therien Mines com
pany bids fair to open into a genuine
shipping bonanza as a result of devel'
opments following the discovery OF
picture rock near the surface about
ten days ago..
Since this event, the Improvement
has been steady up until a few days
ago when il was found that the high
grade ~stringers carried enough ore to
warrant the use of sacks. The lessees
have been sacking a small amount of
high grade ore for several days and
