G. w. Emi9h Tell of What is
Proving to be the LARGEST
Mining Proposition of
Douglas County

that "A combination process as used
in large mills of today be need
ed to handle thsse ores. Besides
free gold there are "sulphidcsn
carrying $l5 to $40 per ton in gold
and silver, and with depth, prob
ably much higher. Then also,
there are "chlorides" which can
only be successfully treated by
cyanide process as the values con-
tanned in the chlorldes become
liquilied and float away in the
water passing through the mill
When ore assays much higher.
than ii pans, look for values, in
sulphides or chlorides.
1t takes true patience, money
and push to test and determine all
OF these matters. lit also takes
someone besides a "quitter" to
push on through apparent tempor-
airy defeat to final victory for the
Valley, for the community, for the
intelligent systematic investigation
and development. The little mill
is now saving all free gold; the
chlorides and sulphides all passing
away, but this is only a testi g
plant 10 find what we want and
what we don't want. We want
and can feed a 100 ton plant at
the mine; we want electric power
to drill, hoist, tram and mill.
With right equipment, $l.00 ore
can be worked profitably hen will
our mountain of s. ore appear as
a dividend producer. Then where
will our % feet of $3.50 to $40 ore
appear. Figure these lodges 900
feet deep. one mile long and 80
cents to each cubic foot of ore,
where sheep and prospector have
roamed unmolested for years until
now. Mr.. editor let me turn
prophet; whether Mr. Hickey or
myself ever make a financial sue
cess OF this enterprise, we are the
greatest benefactors to the Valley
in the opening up for her future
prosperity this unknow store iof
gold, equal to Nevada's best.

RAPID PROGRESS BEING
MADE.

Twelve teams and about twenty
men have been at work grading the
Mainl street of Gardnerville since
last Friday morning and good
progress is being made. The work
was started in the extreme end of
town and near the Chris Dangberg
residence and yesterday afternoon
the work had reached a point near
the Larson hotel. The grading is
being done in regular turn pike
style making a most substantial
street and one that will be lasting.
Water will no longer stand in large
pools on the street during the rainy
season put will he free from water
and mud.
The business men have cooper
ated with the county in the good
work and are lending every assist
ance in the construction of a good
street and that which has been SO
badly need for several years.

Editor Record Courier: In an
swer 10 your repeated request for
an article on Pine Nut mines,
will take this opportunity to give
you some concise information.
Suffice to say while the prophets
have been predicting failure we
have been steadily opening up al
most in Gardnerville's front yard
one of the worlds gold mines, if
present values steadily continue
with depth as lpresent indications
suggest. We have hundreds of
feet of porphyry carving values OF
$3.50 TO $3.50, besides many quartz
lodges of from one to a feet wide,
carrying values OF from S4.00 to
$3.50 per ton in gold. The for
nation is ideal, porphyry, lime
and sysnite, with true quartz
lodges and the values hold in these
ledges and porphyries for over 6000
feet Of good milling grade.
People are so accustomed to
newspaper booms that to see legiti-
mate work being done where others
had been staying up New Years
night to Jump their own claims,
they then get nervous and turn
prophet. In opening up a system
of lodges so vast (there being from
ten to fifteen known ledges and
development work showing an
equal number of blind ones) many
problems are to be met as TO where
the best place or places to work
with limited time and capital TO
show the permancy of the deposits
and where to obtain quickest re-
turns from the mine to help carry
on so large an undertaking. If
you have one ledge you have "a
bout one twentieth of the problem
to meet.
Next, what process or methods
of treatment will obtain the great
est percentage OF values within
reach of the owners or operators,
and while tests made thus far |
that there is free gold I
in paying quantities if rightly |
equipped, yet it is almost certain

Counties IN DISPUTE
OVER BOUNDARY.

Churchill county has been plac-
ed in about the same position as
WAS Douglas county some months
ago. A rich mining camp known
as Rawhide was recently discover
ed near the line which divides
Esmeralda from Churchill and
both counties lay claim to the new
discovery. Churchill has employ
ed two Reno lawyers and will
wage bitter fight for legal po-
session of the disputed territory.
1t appears that for years the
section has been recognized as
part of Churchill county and that
county looked after the desert
strip. A few months ago, however,
when the rich gold strikes were
made at Rawhide, Esmeralda

istance by chopping wood. Dur

Banning Of Carson has made regu-

purpose OF purchasing what little

WALLACE FILES
A COMPLAINT
Nevada Railroad Commission Will
PrOpabIy Investigate Ex.
isting Conditions.

A. L. Wallace, who recently pur-
chased hay and feed yard from
Geo. Hussman at Goldlield, APP
pc ared before the Railroad Com
mission at Carson last week and
filed complaint against the rail
road in which he charges that the
rates between Carson Valley and
Goldfeld are excessive and con
siderable higher than the rate ON
hay from Utah points to Goldield.
Were it not for the superiority OF
the Carson Valley product it would
have been crowded from the Gold
field market long ago by the cheap
price of the Utah product and
which is made SO by the low rates
granted to the Utah farmer.
Being dealer in hay in the
southern camp, Mr.. Wallace is per-
fectly conservative with the differ
ent rates charged Dy the railroad,
and for the good of Carson Valley,
it is to be hoped that the Com
mission succeeds in accomplishing
some good along the lines as set
forth in Mr.. Wallace's complaint.

A Resume of the Work of the Late
 Convention.

On Sunday last the officers and vis- iting delegates to the M. I. A. conven- ton were rendered dinner at noon in the Relief hall. There were about sev- enty guests invited to partake of the sumptuous repast which had been pre- pared for their enjoyment.
 Immediately after the dinner they repaired to the Tabernacle where the afternoon session of the convention, consisting of the work in the primary department, began soon after their ar rival. In the evening a general pro- gram was rendered which consisted of interesting talks and addresses of which there were several, these being interspersed with several musical se- lections.
 Yesterday the sessions were cOntin- ued and the work included were of both local and stake officers. The cOnven- tion concluded in the evening, with a general review and outline for the years work The convention was one of the largest in point of members ever held in Maricopa stake and in the ac- tuaI amount of work accomplished far exceeds that of any previous cOnven- ton.

The music was good and the time excellent About a. m. the party broke up and retired until the break fast bell disturbed their heavy slum- bers and reminded them that Wenden had but one train a day.
 The politicians upon leaving ex- pressed themselves as having had one of the pleasantest times on their whole trip. The ladies of Wenden are bound to say that they did not lack partners at the dance. A few of the visitors were a trifle short winded and may be described as heavyweights but they did their best and Wenden thoroughly enjoyed their efforts to be good fel- lows.

REPUBLICAN RALLY
 SATURDAY EVENING
It Will Be the Great Occasion of the Campaign in Tempe.

Secretary Walter Johnston of the Tempe Cameron Republican club was a visitor in Phoenix Saturday after noon and while there had a talk with Secretary Young of the territorial re- publican committee regarding the mat ters that were brought up at the last meeting of the club relating to the se- curing of the Prescott Glee club for the big republican meeting next Sat urday evening as well as the appear ance of MT Wright of Tucson at the same meeting as one of the principal speakers Mir. Young stated that just at that time it would be impossible for him to give a definite answer as conditions were such that just then it was rather uncertain where the club and Mir Wright would both be on that night. He thought however, that there was a very strong possibility that cir cumstalces would so adjust them selves that the Tempe meeting would have both the club from Prescott and Mir. Wright from Tucson. Mir. Young agreed to let MT. Johnston know defi- nitely the first of this week and pos itive announcement will probably be made tomorrow.
 Whether or not these two strong features of Saturday evenings meet ing materialze. the arrangements that are now being made for the meeting indicates that it will be a great one in every respect.
