ROSEBUD TO MAKE
A BIG GOLD CAMP

Joe Warren, who is interested with j.
p. Grandel and a. l.. Waggoner or this
place in the Florence group of claims at
Rosebud is spending a few days IN town,
says the Humboldt Star
He states that in running tunnel,
which is in twenty-One feet, he mas cut
the main ledge, which shows a width or
four feet and will average $40 to the ton
i'm gold. On the strike of the vein good
paintings have been obtained for over 200
feet along the surface, proving the ledge
to be continuous: He further SAID that
in doing the work in the tunnel and be-
fore he reached the big ledge he cut a
cross fissure that has a streak that will
assay SyI2-0 in gold to the ton. The first
free gold ore found at Rosebud was dis
covered on the Florence ground by Mr..
Warren, and since he made the discovery
he has been working diligently on the
property. The Florence is considered one
of the best properties in Rosebud.
j. R Norris, a Rosebud merchant who
has property that joins the Florence on
the north, is working on vein which is
two and half feet wide and averages
so to the ton in gold So far there is only
a ten-foot hole on the property and the
vein was discovered in doing this work
Another property that is making good
as a gold proposition is that owned by
Barry and Barrett, situated on the same
belt as the Florence. A seventy-foot in
cline shaft has developed a four-foot ledge

SUPERINTENDENT TALKS
ABOUT THE SIOUX CON.

Superintendent A n. Holloway of the
Sioux Con. states that the drift started
some time ago at a depth of $50 feet has
now cut through a big open fissure and
into ground which is filled with small
caves, says the Eureka Reporter.
The work has not progressed far enough
to determine what is beyond this loose
country, but it is the opinion of every
one who has visited the property recently
that the Sioux is nearing the ore. Mr.
Holloway is entirely confident of being
able to make paying mine out of the
Sioux in a very short time.
Our water system alone" said Mr..
Holloway, SIS worth almost as much as
the Sioux stock is now bringing upon the
market. We are able to supply four or
five mines with the best kind of water
and when conditions again become nor

bring a nice revenue into the treasury"

'PIOCHE CAMP
TO CUT LOOSE
Nevada Utah Increases Force
and Other Mines Will
Follow Suit

That work on the mines of this dis
trict will be resumed upon a large scale
now seems an assured fact. says the
Phoebe Record What differences that
have existed between the Miners union
and the Mine Owners association in re-
latiOn to the wage scale have been SdtlS-
factorily adjusted for the present at
least. AS a result the NeVaqa- Clan coI5
poratfon has very materially increased
its working force at the Day mine at 0acK
Rabbit about thirty men having peeh
sent out within the last few days. Othef
mines are scheduled 10 iolioW sun o,lu
within a month Phoebe should be expert
encing the boom so long now due. Mufh
will depend upon the condition OF Ue
metal maket as to the extent of the OBJ
erations but as this seems to be clearing
no apprehension is felt from this source
j. p Gaskill. general manager for the
Nevaaa-Utah corporation, now has &C
tive charge of the affairs of the company
here. Gaskill is a man of large expert
ence in the conduct of mining affairs
having held responsible positions in many
of the leading mining centers of the
country. He was formerly connected
with the big companies of Ely, and has
since been operating in the Alaskan
country.
In an interview with a representative
of this paper, Gaskill stated that it was
thei policy of the company to continue
operations at the Day mine on at least
as large a scale as in the past. and just
as soon as conditions would permit the
force would be. very materially increased.
1t seems that in the early workings of
the mine the operators object was to get
the richest ore possible, and in pursuance
of this end systematic mining was in a
measure lost sight of. The company Will
work toward getting the mine in a posi-
ton for the production of the large ton
mage of which it is cap Ible, which will
require but a month or so. and then we
may look for something handsome in the
way of tonnage from this ''old standby"
of the local mineral belt.
A boiler has been erected at the Day
mine and bricked in. The boarding and
lodging houses have been repaired and
every comfort of the men looked after
A pipe line and pumping plant is being
installed. so that the water can be
pumped directly from the tracks to the
mine, thus doing away with the former
method of hauling it by team. Machine
drills will be put in and everything con-
sistent with modern mining taken ad-
vantage of.
Associated with Gaskin in the manage
ment of the NeYada-Utah properties is
L. Webster Wicks. who holds the posi-
ton of superintendent. Wicks is also a
man of large experience in the mining
world. Before coming to Phoebe he was
associated with the Ely-Witch properties
in Ely. The experience and knowledge
which the above gentlemen bring to the
Nevada-Utah assures for that company
handsome returns in the way of mineral
production and we congratulate the COM
pany upon it's selection.
