from San Francisco, where he made ar
engagements to continue work on his

the showing in the Horton lease on one
side. the Deny on the other, the predic-
ton is freely made that a few more feet
will put this shaft in pay stuff also.
Work is progressing favorably on the
lease being operated on the Joker group
by DIR. Charles Walters Of Goldfield. The
tunnel is now in about thirty-fve feet,
and will ave to be driven an additional
t~hirty-fve feet to encounter the ledge
at a depth Of about 200 feet. The Joker
group. owned by John E. W. Boesch Of
Goldfeld, is southwest OF the vickers
property and surface showings would
indicate that the same ledge traverses
the two properties.
Several leasers are at work on what
is known as the Upper Group Of the
camp. also owned by Mr.. vickers. A
half dozen shafts are being sunk. but as
all the leasers a decided to go to
considerable depth before prosecuting.
1t is a little early to predict what the
showing will be. It is sufficiently en-
couraging. however. at the present time
to have caused the decision on the part
Of all the ~leasers to sink at least 100
feet.

If ever there has been a doubt that

must now be dispelled. With the show

COST OF LAYING REDUCED

At the time the reduction in the scale
of mine workers was made the promise
was given out that the cost of living in
Goldfield would be reduced in even
greater ratio. The prices that now ex-
list in Goldfeld are practically SO per
cent below those that were maintained
a few months ago. when Goldfield was
one of the most expensive places in the
United States. Houses may now be
rented for SIS a month which brought
three times that figure. Clothing is as
cheap as it can be purchased anywhere
in Nevada, while meats, groceries and
household goods may be purchased at
proportionate rates.

1t is remarkable the variety of uten-
sils on exhibition and for sale by the
company. Electric coffee pots, friers,
broilers, bakers. roasters, heaters, irons,
steamers-these are only a few of them,
and to be appreciated they must be seen.
A surprising feature is the ~cheapness
of these articles, considering their real
worth, for the company does not seek to
make n profit on the wares, being
merely interested in securing a market
for it's electric current. This, also is
to be had much cheaper than would be
thought, for 1t is on what is called the
daylight load and is sold for five cents a
kilowatt, with a 20 per cent discount,
the minimum rate being IS a month.

GOING ATTE1 THE ORE

Frank III. Horn, financial agent of the
Kansas City Goldfeld Mining company,
furnishes The News with the following
data regarding the operations of the
company:
During the year 1907, the Kansas
Gty-Goldheld Mining company expended
s52oO5.54 for machinery and develop
rent of their two leases and the two
claims owned by the company; $751;
e77.6s of this was paid for labor and a
large per rent of the s2O.027.SS which
which was made for machinery, powder.
fuse and general expenses was also
maid to merchants of Goldfeld. The
Kansas City-Goldfeld Mining company
during the recent panic a I believe.
the only leasing company in the entire
district which was able to pay their
miners in currency and to continue de-
yelopment work; the Kansas City-Gold-
field Mining / believe, did more
actual development IN their property
during the year 1907 than any other non
producing lease or mine in the entire
district. The Kansas City-Goldield
Mining company expended more honey
in development in the year 1907 than
any non-producing lease or mine that I
know Of in the district. I believe that
the Kansas City-G oldfeld Mining COM
pany was the last producing or non
producing lease or mining company to
cease operation by virtue of the late
labor trouble.
Mr.. McClintock left for Goldfeld Mon
day evening. the cath, with instructions
from. .he board of directors to begin at
once cr~osscuttfng and drifting in at
least three levels on the Velvet and two
levels on the C.. o. d. and It is the in
tention of the management to make bet
ter time in prosecuting IN drifting
as we nave in shaft sinking with one
single exception-of any mine or lease
in the district from date of it's discov-
cry down to the present time.
There is not and never was a share of
promotion stock in the Kansas City
Goldfeld Mining company. therefore the
proceeds of every share that is sold goes
to the development Of the company's
holdings and leases in the Goldfeld dis
trict.

No part of Nevada deserves more
careful consideration as a productive

through the northern part of Elko

tween the Humboldt valley and the

this for in that region are located such
