the SofVlceS.
 Another well was brought in at the Virgin last week, the capacity being estimated at forty barrels. This well was struck at depth of 725 feet and is situated about 300 feet from Rhyolite well number one. The well is owned by Los Angeles and Goldfeld people. The quality of the oil is superior to that of the first we'll and is thought to have high percentage of Illuminating oil in it's composition. So far twenty-one wells have been sunk to depths ranging from one hun dred to five hundred feet in the dis trict, but the companies have failed to reach the oil bearing strata, although all of those sunk below one hundred feet show oil. At the Clark we'll, in the north part of this county, depth of about 1,0O0fe was reached, but string of tools was lost in the well an delay is occasioned by failure to get proper fishing tools. As soon as the tools are picked up work will be resumed and the we'll sunk to depth of 2,O0O feet, or until oil is struck.
 E. F. Warner, of the Stewart-War- ner leasing company, of Goldfield, came in from Blackberry Monday even- ;pr oo.omp.p;od by T C Chant Tho gentlemen went to Chloride the fol- lowing day to look at mining machin- cry. returning the same day. Mr. Warner continued to Goldfield and Mr.. Grant went back to Blackberry. Messrs. Stewart and Warner intend to take over the mines of the Music moun- tain section, owned in part by w. C.. Grounds, Wm. Grant, T. J. Grant and George Aitken. The mines are rich in gold, but considerable development will have to be done before the prop critics are on pay basis. It is the in- tention of the purchasers to put ma chinery on the mines and sink the shafts to depth of four or five hun dred feet before blocking out the ore bodies.
 The Gold Road company is prosecut- ing work on all the mines with great energy and immense bodies of high grade milling ores are being opened np. With the completion of the power plant and the transmission of power for use in the mill and mines the con- pany will be in shape to again produce the big bars of bullion that for years past have made the name of the Gold Road company one of the most promi- nent among the gold producers of the United States.

FORMING OF new
JUDICIAL DISTRICT
In Esmeralda County Causes Dis
cussion and Many Legal
Questions Raised

In other words Judge Lanean would
be compelled to resign from an Office
to which he was elected for four years
to accept one year appointment, and
in order to further retain his position
which is his by right would have to
make another campaign.
While he remains in office it is an
impossiblity under the constitution of
the state to change the district Or to
appoint another judge to handle any
part Of the territory to which he was
elected as presiding judge.
On the other hand it is simply out
Of the question to expect one man to
take care of the duties OF the first
judicial district. There is enough
business in the Esmeralda court alone
TO take the undivided attention OF one
man and with the other forr counties
OF the district 10 look out for someone
must necessarily be overlooked in the
rush.
Judge Lansan is in this city today
but stated to a representative of this
paper that he had not made up his
mind how he would act in the matter.
He stated that he had not had the
time to thoroughly consider the prop
OsitiOn but stated that something
would have to be done to relieve the
present state Of affairs He added
that he would be willing to do his
part to help the matter out. even if
he was compelled to take the worst
end of the deal.
He stated that the announcement of
the Goldfield papers that he was af-
ter the appointment to the new dis
trict was news to him and It would be
but reasonable to expect hat he would
wish the appointment that would give
him some of his time at his home in
Storey county
At the present time the outcome of
the affair is at the best only a con-
lecture.
Carson City daily appeal. [volume] (Carson City, Nev.) 1907-1930, 1908-01-10

That the governor of the state will
request that the coming session Of
the legislature make of Esmeralda
county separate judicial district
seems a foregOne conclusion and the
papers OF the southern country are
taking up the matter, naming several
aapirants for the new judgship and
further making the statement that
Judge Langan the present elective Of
ficer will take the judgship Of the new
district
This side OF the story looks all
right in print but only tells small
part of the affair. Several important
questions will have to be threshed out
before the matter is finally settled
In the first place Judge Langan has
been elected as judge OF the first jul
dicial district comprising the counties
Of Storey Ormsby, Douglas. Lyon and
Esmeralda. His term OF Office is for
four years.
The only way that the legislature
could make the change would be to
pass an law making Esmeralda county
a new district at the expiration of
the present Judges term Of Office
Judge Langan can resign from the
office he now holds and By doing so
previous to the passage Of the oil the
legislature can declare the district
without judge. make two districts
out Of it and the governor can then
fill the vacancies
That Judge Lansan would be ap-
pointed to one Of the districts is a
certainty. But with this proceeding
another question would be raised
As soon as he resigns his elective
position and accepts an appointment
from the governor he becomes an ap-
pOintee to serve until the next gen
eral election, which would mean that
his Office would have to be filled by
regular candidate at the next elec-
ton the coming November.
