ROSEBUD TO
SEVEN TROUGHS
Phil BIume Says Region Is
Rich in MineraI-Winne-
mucca a Conner.

Phil Blune, the father of the Rose
bud district, Nevada. and discoverer of
the famous Brown Palace bonanza
property, is in the city for a few days
for the first time in fourteen years.
and, with H. c. Parker, is looking after
business matters connected with the
Nevada Five of Diamonds company's
property in the southern end of the
Rosebud district Mr.. Blume cleaned
up a fortune in the Brown Palace, and,
according TO the reports he and Mr..
Parker make concerning the showing
at the Five of Diamonds, both of them
are in line for another grand prize
drawing.
In the property of the Five of Dia-
monds company several parallel lodges
have been prospected and shown to be
rich in silver and gold. A double COM
partment shaft has been started on
one of the veins, and the intention is
to sink on 1t for 100 feet and then
cross-cut for all the veins, a number
Of which Will be opened inside of fifty
feet. The shaft is now over twenty
five feet deep. sample Of eighteen
inches of the ledge, taken at a depth
of twenty feet and assayed in this city
yesterday, shows the presence of 0.520
ounces gold and 1857 ounces silver per
ton. Along the outcrop of the ledge
for a distance Of 1000 feet the lowest
sample taken in prospecting showed
values in silver and gold ranging from
$75 to over $500 a ton. 1t is thought
possible that the shaft, which is a
perpendicular one. may work out of
the vein before the 100-foot mark is
reached. but the ledge is so nearly
perpendicular that small amount of
prosecuting viii open 1t up again.
Great Mineral Section.
1--WE are in a wonderfully rich min
eral section over there" said Mr..
Biume, and it seems to me that it is
going to make mines all the way
from the north end of the Rosebud dis
trict south to Farrell and Seven
Troughs. Our Five of Diamonds prop
erty is located about midway between
Rosebud and Farrell. and within about
threee miles of the Nevada Superior
and Antelope Spring properties.
'RosebudA like most other districts,
has had it's financial, labor and other
troubles, and it has been slow getting
under way again on that account. But
the country is all right, and 1t will be
heard from during the present year.
Within a few months the Western Pa
cific will be finished through the dis
trict, and that will help materially in
more ways than one. 1t will put that
section in the closest kind of touch

all appearances it is now being made

on the Southern Pacific, and with it's

of the state, it is, in my judgment,
going to be the greatest contributing
point to Salt Lake of any of the Ne
vada railroad towns. At Reno, when
the question of whether a trip shall be
made TO San Francisco or Salt Lake,
either for business or pleasure, the
matter is most usually determined in
favor of San Francisco, because the
distance is shorter. running time
quicker and fare considerably less.
Winnemucca will hold a similar posi-

ASHLAND=MARION POLO GAMES
ATTRACTING MUCH ATTENTION

All indications point to great
crowd being in attendance Thursday
night when the first of the Ashland
Marion post season games will be
played at the local rink.
Marion has, during the past week.
claimed to possess the best team in
the Ohio State league and has wag-
erred large amount of money on the
outcome of the contests with Ashland.
The players have put up a part of the
money and they are determined to
beat the team that won the Ohio
State league pennant. All of them
are working daily at the rink and
taking long walks to keep in the pink
of condition for the contests. They
are confident that the games will
come Marionward.

over at Ashland there Is much in
terest being taken in the approaching
games and 1t is said that large dele
cation will accompany the Ashland
team to this city Thursday to witness
the first game. The second game
will be played on Friday at the local
rink and Ashland will send another
delegation to do some tall roting for
the Champs. Should either team win
the first two games 1t will be unnec-
essary to play the last one, but should
each win one the third game will be
played at Ashland. In that event 1t is
certain that a couple of hundred Ma
rion rooters will accompany the boys
when they invade the camps of the
enemy. A good big crowd. plenty of
noise and enthusiasm will help the
Marionites to win.

Planting the Potato.

Many experiments have been made
to ascertain the best depth for plant
Ing. The results, with some excep-
tions, favor planting not less than
four inches deep. The favorable ef-
fects of deep planting were especially
marked on well prepared, frtabla
soil and in dry seasons.
Very deep planting is open to OBJ
lection because of the increased la
Dor of harvesting and the danger OF
a deficient stand when weather con-
ditions are unfavorable. Very shall
low planting reduces the yield and

When everything goes o. X;

ENGLAND's INCOME TAX.


Bears Most Heavily Upon Man or
Average Income.
An effort made recently by sew
eral enterprising members of Par

Commons to pass graduated in

1t Is held that the present uni
form income tax, which Is levied
upon all incomes above $500 q year.
Is unscientific, because It's burden
Is unequal. The present tax of thir-
teen pence on each pound of income.
approximating twenty-six cents on
each s5 of income.
All persons earning under $500 a
year are exempt. This exemption
relieves the masses of the people
from income tax. The effort now is
to obtain scientifically graded tax.
Mr.. Charming, MP. wants to amend
the law so that incomes exceeding
$500 and not exceeding $1,000 shall
be taxed at the rate of four ceats on
each $5; incomes above $1,000 and
below $4,000 eight cents, and In
comes between $4,000 and $4,000
twenty cents.
Mr.. Lewis, MP, also wants a
graduated income tax. while Mr.
Trevelyan, MP, favors graduated
tax that will compel the rich to
pay in proportion TO their wealth
Mr.. Trevelyan believes every person
with an income exceeding S25,000
shall pay, In addition to the present
tax OF twenty-six cents on each So,
two cents on each s5 of income
above $4,000 and up to $4,000,
and four cents on each SO of in
come above $4,000.
Under the law as at present ad-
ministered the income tax bears
more heavily upon the man of aver
age income than upon the very
wealthy. Nobody living In England
can evade the income tax, whether
Englishmen or foreigners. Even
the London correspondents of Ame-
rican newspapers are not exempt
and have to pay income tax at the
same rate as William Waldorf Astor,
although their incomes in many
cases are not quite as large.-N.Y.

COMMODORE PBARY's NEW SHIP
Specific Points of Difference From
Other Arctic Ships.

First and foremost, she will be a
powerful steamer, carrying all the
engine power which the size of her
hull will contain. All previous arc
tic ships have been sailing ships,
with only accessory or auxiliary
steam power. The sail power Of
the new steamer will be auxiliary
only.
Second she is the first purely fore
and-aft-rigged vessel yet built for
arctic work. None OF the others
have been able to get away entirely
from the old-time square-rig. Her
rig will be three masted schooner,
and her sail area about three
fourths of the sail area of the typi-
cal Maine schooner of the same size
of hull. In hull model the ship diff
fers from other arctic ships in sew
eSal points.
The rake of her stem is much
more pronounced than in any pre-
vious ship OF her class. Her fore
foot is more rounding. and her bows
are more wedge-shaped. This in
crease in the rake of the stem not
only makes her effective as an ice
breaker, but Is necessitated by her
unusual engine power, the incline Of
the stem acting as a buffer to her
Impact against the Ice.
The pronounced wedge shape has
been given TO her bows because the
greater portion of her work will be
that of slowly and laboriously
squeezing her way through and be-
tween fields and fragments of heavy
Ice, and the sharper her bow the
more effective will be her engine
power.-Harper' Weekly.

Last Y ear Morton Called the Local
Backers the Gamest in the
League-Let's Boost.

Marion's prospects for the coming
season are exceptionally bright and
the fans should Loyalty support the
team. 1t costs money to run a ball
club and the money should come from
every lover of the game In the city.
The directors and stockholders OF the
team are liberal and have put up a
lot of money to give Marion league
baseball On various occasions the
fans have been asked for small con-
tributions and have donated large
amounts.
In the O.-P. league last year. Pres
ident Morton said that the directors
and stockholders of the Marion club
were the gamest in the league and
did not hesitate to put money into
the game when the chances of getting
1t back were mighty slim. They
loved the game and were willing to
go down In their pockets and help to
support It. Now the man who does
not take stock in the club and who is
financially able should respond lib
orally when call is made for more
funds The success of team de-
pends as much on the financial con-
dition of the club as 1t does on the
players. No player can put his heart
and soul in the game if pay day is
several weeks past and no envelopes
have been handed out.
Marion has team in the new Ohio
State league this year and has an
excellent chance to finish well up in
the race. Without support there Is
no chance. If we lose let's be good
losers and chop out that knocking
and If we win give credit where it is
due. In any event let's pull together
and make every club in this league
