further depth they will open a bonanza.
Mr.. Macedon stated that one lease
had been granted on the property owned
by himself and George Taylor, and that
others were being considered. The block

FIRST FRAME BUILDING
The first frame building for the town
of White Canyon was completed this
week. The structure is 20x40 and will
be used as Offices by the White Canyon

In conclusion Mr.. Maekedon said that
the most encouraging reports were

trict and that in a very short time the
Jessup district would be occupying a
position in the foremost ranks of Ne

while it is true some are there just for

ACTIVE WORK BEGINS
In speaking of the work being done
on the different mining claims. Mr..
Mackedon said that active development
had been started and was being vigor-
