Rush to Sierra

Sierra district is experiencing a lively
boom as the result Of rich discoveries
made during the past ten days. Those
there believe the district is to become
one Of tie leaders Of Nevada. Sierra is
about twelve miles southeast of Mill
City. An effort was made to keep the
fact Of the recent rich finds from the
public, hut the news got out last week
at Winnemucca. Thus the rush now on
there is probably one of the few in the
state where the outsiders have had an
equal chance with those who were early
on the ground.

contractors Want Ground

The feature of the Granite district
during the past week has been the in
terest shown in the Bunker Hill 4 Sui
Ivan property, on which a four-foot
body Of lead-silver ore was disclosed
some time ago. Soon after the strike
was made the contractors on the work
temporarily left the camp in order that
they might avail themselves of the OPP
p~ortunity to secure some of the ground
in the immediate neighborhood of the
strike.

MINING NEWS FROM ALL DISTRICTS

It is doubtful il there is any copper
mine in the country which can present
a liner list of weekly reports than the
Nevada Douglas copper property in the
YerinRton district. Superintendent
Arentz sends out each week the general
averages Of the various faces Of the
drifts on which he is centering energy
and the high grade values continue so
faithfully that the management feels
they could not be improved on in any
regard. During last week the auxiliary
drift, 550-foot level, the ear samples ran
1872, 14.6, 1871 and 90 per cent copper.
The main drift on the same level aver
aged a., 81 and 4.3 per cent copper.
These assays were on sulphide ores ex-
~clusively from the Ludwig mine, and
help to emphasize that the Ludwig is
developing into one of the high grade
copper mines of the west.
Large Cyanide Plant
The large works Of the Chas. Buffers
company (Limited), are three miles
easterly from Virginia City, in Six-Mile
canyon, at the foot Of Telescope Peak,
Men are now occupied with the work OF
preparation to resume treatment of ore.
The company has a lease on the gold
bearing groupings of the Chollar and
Potosi mines near Gold Hill. The ore
will be developed to the works by q
tramway already constructed. The ore
will be crushed in a 20-stamp mill
which is also provided with tube mills
Wiley and Frue machines. 1t is ex
pected that the entire plant will be in
operation before June i. Nearly 6(
men will find employment.

J. A. Welsh and his associates of Cali
fornia recently took up q claim on the
north fork Of Big creek, rear the road
leading into Florence, that possesses .
surprising showing says the Boyd Basin
correspondent Of the Humboldt Star.
Heretofore everyone passed up the
dyke Of rock BY the roadside rs the sur.
face showing was not Of the average
kind. These gentlemen, in spite Of
public sentiment in the matter, set
about and staked . claim. They uncov-
cred the face Of the ledge, which ID
thirty-one feet in width, and put q
three foot trench across it. As a re
suit they are in possession Of a large
body Of porpnyry-granite ore, some of
which goes better than 800 per ton.

Customs Office Inspectors From Ia

Pasco, according to the customs
department, contains more and worse
opium dens than sny other city of

TO Tacoma after making a raid on he
opium joints at that place and con-
fiscat-ng II pounds and 200 cans OF

INSTALL NEW GATES IN CANAL.
Are Modern mprovemcnt-Loca
at Zillah.

The reclamation service has just
commenced a novel improvement at
Zillah, on the Sunnyside canal.
Where the spillway leaves the canal
a system of gates has been installed
which operates by water power. A
water wheel is located between the
canal and the gates, and as the water
passes over the water wheel in the
spillway it generates a power which
opens and shuts the gates for the
water when it reaches them. This
is the first time such a system has
been used on the Sunnyside canal.
The system of drops which the rec
service is putting in along
the Sunnyside canal is nearing com
pletion and will be finished within
a few weeks.

FIGHT BILLS.
Big Brewery Interests Are at Work
Now.

Petitions protesting against the
passage of the Tillman, Frozier, Dol
liver and Clay bills, aimed at the
manufacturers of liquors, are report-
ed to be circulating in Washington,
Oregon and every section of the Unit
ed States where hops are grown for
commercial purposes.
One of the petitions is being pass
ed around among the hopgrowers
and dealers, headed as follows:
Senator S. H. Piles, Washington,
D. c.: We, the undersigned growers
and dealers in hops, petition you to
do all in your power to oppose re-
cent hostile legislation affecting
blewir interests, such as the Till
man, Frozier, Dolliver and Clay bills.
Consider these, if passed, ruinous
to the hop industry of Washington. -
This protest by petition is said to
have been arranged for by the big
brewery interests at a recent ses-
sion in the east. 1t is declared that
supplementary petition will be
placed in all retail liquor houses and
saloons for signatures, even if it is
necessary to buy signatures with free
drinks.
The allied brewery interests are
said to have decided to appear be-
fore the country's legislators with
petitions opposing anti-liquor legis-
lation, carrying if possible, millions
of names of men who are either with
the brewery interests from business
reasons or can be influenced to take
sides with them.

News Notes From Portland.


PORTLAND, Ore, Jan. IS
Portland and Oregon have been 20
intimately associated with the ben
efits of successful exposition that
there really seems to be greater
heart interest in the success of the
Pacific in this city and
state than in Washington. One of
the best commissions ever named to
represent any state is the one ap-
pointed by Governor Chamberlain to
take care of Oregon's interests at the
A.-Y.-P. exposition. The plans for
the Oregon building have been de-
cided upon, and it is the most attrac-
tive state edifice ever designed in
America for the grounds of great
fair.
There is really genuine enthusiasm
in the development of the live stock
industry of the Pacific Northwest.
The directors of the live stock show
to be given in Portland this fall have
been particularly pleased over the
success of the mid-winter exhibit
just concluded in Denver. The show
ing was beyond all expectation, over
500 animals being entered, some
from the extreme east. The Port
land Country Club and Livestock as
ISOLATION have a regular army of
men and horses at work preparing
their grounds, and they have prom
ised the Hunt club of this city that
they will have everything in apple
pie order so that the grounds may be
used for the Hunt clubs spring meet
ing. Washington and Oregon can
add many millions to their wealth
through the improvement of their
livestock
The executive committee of the
Portland Commercial club are an
pealing for additional funds from
the business interests of the city for
the purpose of advertising the actual
resources of the Pacific Northwest
Not a cent of the funds of this club
have been used for advertising tne
city. They have conferred their spec
ial efforts upon telling the people of
the United States, and particularly
those of the great middle west, hat
they could buy railroad tickets over
any railroad for any point in Wash
ington or Oregon for $50 and these
rates will be good from March 1st
to April 30th, and it should be the
central feature of the advertising OF
every commercial body in the state
of Washington.
The delegation of advertising men
from Washington and Oregon who
have Just returned from Oakland,
feel especially gwatified in having
secured the next annual meeting of
the Pacific Coast Ad. Mems asso-
citation for Portland next June. The
Pacific Northwest wants to get bet
ter acquainted with the active adver-
Using men of our sister state of Cal
ifornia, and this will be an oppol
tunity Their itinerary when they
come north will include several points
in Washington.
Interest in the coming Inland En-
pire excursion en- route through Ore
gon and California isc upon the in
crease. Already 200 representative
citizens of that greatest Of all the
productive sections of Washington
have engaged passage. The excur-
sion is under the auspices of the Spo-
kane Chamber of Commerce and
Walla Walla Commercial club. They
will spend all day Saturday. Feb. s,
in Portland, and then go south as
far as Los Angeles.
