Morris tribune., 1908-05-16
To the voters of the 57th Legis.
IatiVe District.

In order that may be re .nominat-
ed as your Representative in the next
legislature, solicit your active sup
port and, at the September primary
election, your votes.
tits quite likely that the next ses-
sion will be more important than anv
session held during the last twenty
years.
Among other weighty matters, leg
islative valuation of the railroad pro-
perties of Minnesota, to accomplish
which fifty thousand dollars were ap-
propriated by the last legislature to
defray the expense necessarily con-
nected with the work of gathering
the information needed for intelligent
legislative action, will be one of the
leading subjects, if not the leading
subject, for legislative consideration.
How much shall be appropriated,
and what administrative plan shall be
adopted, for the construction of the
new prison plant at Saltwater, and
whether it shall be large enough to
contain the present binding Irvine
manufacturing plant, considerably
enlarged, and the harvester factory
in which: of course, you are deeply
interested, in addition to all of the ap-
pointments and requirements of the
prison proper, built adequate for all
the future needs of the state, and in
conformity with the scientific rules
and regulations relative to prisons
which are approved by the ablest
penologists of the present day and
age, among whom the present warden
of our prison is leader whom others
follow, abandoning to other uses the
old and out Of date prison, will be
another leading subject for legislative
action.
I can not, this year, take the time
away from home to make a personal
canvas of the district to learn your
Wishes. for, in order to be able to so
arrange my own personal affairs as
to enable me to serve you at St. Paul
next winter, it will be actually nec-
essary that I meanwhile, remaining
at home for the purpose, give my at
tention to my own affairs; and yet I
will hold myself ready to come to any
point or place in the district to at
tend any meeting held for the purpose
where I am desired to be to explain
or discuss either what is above re-
ferred to or any act of the last legis-
lature in which had any part.
I want the support, and the vote at
the September primary election, of
every elector who believes that in the
last legislative session, served the
people to the best of my ability.
also desire to thank you for the
loyal and generous support and votes
given me in 1905; and also to add
that it will be pleasure to me to
hear from you by letter, or postal
card or in person, telling me of the
sentiment of your several localities,
and offering your own suggestions as
to the work of the last, or of the next
legislative session.

GOOD ORE ON THE GIFT

Clayton 4 Crittenden, leasing on the
New Years Gift, at Searchlight, have
struck it bigger than ever on the lower
level. The leasers have been driving in
from the shaft to catch the shoot
opened westward on the level above.
This was accomplished during the week,
and the ore exposed is of a consider
ably higher grade.
Returns from assays are out, and as
the ore is fiecked with steel galena
there is no question as to its value.
Throughout the mine wherever this
character of ore occurred the gold
values, in addition to the lead and sill
yer, have never fallen below four
ounces.
Sc far during September the leasers
have shipped two cars and a third will
be dispatched within the next few days.
The last carload averaged s75 to the
ton.

BIG DEAL

A. G. Gutheil has completed a big
deal by which the Knight ingan peo-
pie of Utah acquire a large area of
good copper ground. These people are
among the most wealthy operators of
the country and their securing this con-
siderable property is a good stroke Of
business, not only for them but for
Yerington, as they are able and expect
to develop the property, which will
benefit both. says the Yerington Times.
The option which Mr.. Gutheil took
ND for them was on sixteen claims ad.
Joining the Mcconnell and Y~eringtou
Consolidated properties and is consid-
cred some of the best ground in the dis
triet.
The claims were secured from Messrs.
Some. Verdy and Bcekman and, while
Mr.. Gutheil would not divulge the
amount paid. it is a matter of current
knowledge that the sun was a large
one. We expect to hear more of these
claims very soon.

MINING NEWS FROM ALL DISTRICTS


The S~earcblight Bulletin SAYS pre-
liminary steps are being taken for re
sumption of activity at the Cyrus Noble
mine. f. III. Bryan, of R~edlands, Cal,
who with J. J. Pendergast recently sue
ceeded to the ownership under fore.

day 10 supervise the work. Mr.. Bryan
will remain at least throughout the win
ter. A small force is already employed
and this will be gradually increased.
Naturally, it is the plan of the manage
ment to start right and in a manner to
assure ~permaneney of operations. This
property is equipped with a 10-stamp
mill and conccntrator 1t adjoins the
Duplex on the west, and it's extensive
surface improvements are the first i'm
portant landmark as the camp is en-
tered from the railway station. Hun
dreds of feet of development have been
done and during its former brief period
of activity it made n considerable
record of production.

TO OPEN OLD ROAD

The Southern Pacific is preparing to
resume traffic over the old narrow
gauge railroad between Nina and Can
delaria which has peer abandoned for
a period of about five years. Superin-
tendent Manson. Chief Engineer Fitz-
gerald and Assistant Superintendent
Rowlands are now at Nina looking
after the reopening of the line. The
road was constructed during the boom
DAYS of Candelaria but when that camp
became quiet and its mines apparently
worked out, the road was abandoned
and for the past five years no trains
have passed oyer the line. Several
properties at Candelaria and in the
vicinity have now opened and the com
panies promise sufficient tonnage to
operate trains so the railroad company
will accordingly renew the service on
the line. 1t is planned to have the line
running about the 10th of this month.

K1LKER COMING FORWARD

M. f. Walch, who has been investi-
eating a group of claims at Florence, In
the Kilker mining district, about ff-
teen miles from Death Valley Junction
on the Tonopah and Tidewater railroad,
has completed his investigation and has
recommended the purchase of the prop
erty to a syndicate of Omaha capital
lists. The deal is assured. The claims,
four in number, carry gold, silver and
copper in paying quantities and the
new purchasers will at once start ac-
tive development. The Kilker district,
with Florence as the townsite, was To-
Gated last summer by Thomas kilker,
NJ. j. Moore and others and has an ex-
~cellent surface showing over the entire

LEASING WITHIN CITY LIMITS

The Jameson Bolcn Leasing company
is playing in great luck. Having a
lease on a lot of ground in the heart of
Austin and going to work upon it with
vigor. a ledge has been opened up that
will excite the envy of all bonanza
miners in the state. This lease is on a
property belonging to II. G. Richardson,
an old-time Cripple Creek mining man,
who believes Austin will again dupli-
cate the record of the great Colorado
camp. The work of the ~lessees consists
of a 46-foot incline shaft and in this a
ledge varying from four to seven feet
in width has been opened up which ear
ries values of high milling to the ship
ping grade. The lowest assay so far
obtained gave 90 ounces in silver and
$6.40 in gold. The strongest mineral
~ization appears as ~stephanite, horn sill
yer and ruby silver.

critics, brought a large specimen of cop
pr or g tie Lines office: ~ was
taken frbm the 650-foot level and runs
about ~ per cent copper. They nave
encountered a large body of this ore
and are, of course, duly pleased, but
they have so much good stuff blocked
ont that it passes almost without com
ment. In n other camp in the state,
this strike would be called wonderful,
wonderful, but it is not much out of the
ordinary in this great mine. Yering-

MILLING RATES REDUCED
BY MANHATTAN COMPANIES

The reduction of milling charges by
three of the four mills at Manhattan
now treating custom ores in that camp
was received with no little pleasure by
the operators and ioasers. From an
average charge of about 50 to the ton
the rates have been reduced to So on
$50 ore, with 40 cents added for each
additional SIS in value. This charge in
eludes plate and concentration treat
ment. An additional charge Of 50 is
made for cyanide treatment.
1t is the general belief that these
treatment charges will stimulate leas-
ing and that several lodges of $15 to
500 ore will be worked that heretofore
were considered Improbable. Since the
installation of the mills experience has
shown where certain improvements and
changes could be made, whereby ore
could be treated at a less cost, and
these having been made. the public is
given the benefit. Mai.

HIGHLAND CHIEF

The work on the Highland Chief
located in Queen canyon adjoin-
ing the old Indian Queen mine is pro
crossing very satisfactorily. The tun-
mel is now in a distance of $50 feet and
although no ore was expected for at
least 100 feet a number of stringers of
high grade silver-lead ore have been
encountered. These stringers all run
parallel to the main ledge as shown on
the surface and are no doubt feeders
to the main ore body. The company in
tends to work a force of men all winter
and will soon erect suitable buildings
on their property for the accommoda
tion Of their employees.

walther's mine had a fine showing of
free gold ore from the surface to the
50-foot level, where operations were
suspended on account of bad manage
ment Of the company which had it
under bond. The mine will now be de-
