BIG RUSH IS ON TO
GOLD VALLEY DISTRICT

Gold Valley is the name of a new
mining camp in the Gold Belt mining
district, located about 2s miles south
west of Hart and IA miles southeast of
Gina, on the east slope of the Provi-
dence range. Last winter a number OF
Hart people made several locations in
that vicinity and everyone who has
visited the district declares that the
showing there is good.
Quite a rush is now on to the new
gold camp, and it is said everything for
miles around has been located. A town
site has been laid off and over so tents
have been erected. At a depth. of 100
feet Warfeld and Neumayer have
opened a 16-inch streak of free milling
ore which gave them $3.50 returns on
two tons of ore worked through an ar
~rastra. At this particular property the
vein filing occurs in diorite of por-
phyry, the dykes being highly impreg
mated with manganese of iron and show
ing an abundance of hematite. Along
the mineralized belt granite, porphyry
and diorite make up the general forma-
tion of the country, with a strong lime
contact running north and south.
Not far from the scene of the new
discoveries is located the old Providence
mine, which has a record of production
running over So, 5000 This property,
however, has been closed for some time
on account of litigation.
The White syndicate is putting in a
large mill and has ground showing we'll
defined veins carrying values of a high
milling grade. A two-stamp Nilsson mill
has been ordered for the Lost Burro,
the claim upon which Warield and Neu-
mayer male their strike.

Der Sd for United States senator, IRE
spective of party affliation, thereby
unanimously confirming the expressed
win of the people, and this convention
in the event such agreement is entered
into hereby solemnly pledges and binds
the legislative nominees of the Demo
cratic party of the various counties OF
the state to vote for such choice of the
people, irrespective of party afiliation
and for none other, when the legisla-
ture has convened for the purpose of
choosing a United States senator.
A like action was taken by the Re
publicans for Mr.. Flanagan and on
September IL the agreement was signed
by Judge Somers for the Democratic
party and by Harry Humphrey for the
Republican party.

ATWOOD DISTRICT Is
BECOMING ANINATpn

The litigation over ore from the pae.
tolus has been settled and the varions
parties to the controversy have now .
nice little amount of money to divide
up between themselves.
The Smallwood mine on Paradise
mountain has been recently sold for ,
goodly sum and the new owners propose
to inaugurate a campaign of develop
ment on a good-sized scale.
M. l.. Butler has just returned from
the coast, bringing with him a large
party of capitalists. He has struck
good body of ore at the 250-foot level
that goes $500 a ton. Mr.. Butler has a
great deal of ore sacked on his property
and will shortly begin hauling to the
smelter.
The Richardson mill is running night
and day and the cleanup, which has lust
been made, was forwarded to the mint.
On the Griggs-Atwood lease they are
sacking ore which they will send to the
Richardson mill to be handled as soon
as they finish the run from the Pawnee
mine. James Miller, the well known
mill man, was unfortunate in fracturing
his right shoulder, and it will be several
weeks before he can resume work at the
mill.
Arthur Gardner has secured a prop
erty in the Paradise mountains that was
worked some 35 years ago. In those
days ore was packed to Austin on
burros and then put on the train and
shipped to the smelters. They have a
hole down 80 feet and Mr.. Gardner will
commence the work of sinking deeper at
once. They have drifted at the 3O-foot
level 20 feet to the south and II feet to
the west. In the 20-foot drift he has
encountered a vein of ore which con.
tains lead, silver and silver chlorides.

TELLURIDE

Hon. Geo. D.. Meiklejohn and John
Durin, a Salt Lake capitalist are in
Beatty for the purpose of making an
examination of Telluride. An option
has been taken on the majority of the
claims on the mountain, and doubtless
the deal will be carried through.

Leasing operations are soon to as
sume a magnitude on the estate OF the
Seven Troughs Therien Mines company
that will make il a banner leasing prop
erty of the district, says the Seven
Troughs Miner. In addition to the en-
laryed ope-ations on some of the well
known leases on this territory, a ne"
lease is about to start up that will com
mare in Importance with the biggest
leasing enterprise in the district. L. A.
Frasier, a prominent mining nan OF
Goldfeld, has made application for a
lease on the main body of the big
.Therien hill and it is likely that opera
ions will soon be started here that Will
compare with the G. H. Hayes lease on
the Mazuma Hills ground on the OPP
posite side of the guleh.
Opdike Lease Resumes
After a temporary shut down of sew
eral weeks, following the recent deal by
which prominent mining men bought
into the Opdike lease, this property has
resumed operations and is now prepared
to thoroughly exploit its very promising
block of ground. Work has been re
sumed in the south drift on the ore
hundred and twenty-five foot level
where just prior to the shut down rich
G; ound was being opened up. ore OF a
rich character has appeared some
seventy-hve feet soitt If the shaft on
the lower level and the manner in which
The shoot was responding to develop
ment ami widening ont promises the
early disclosure of a substantial body OF
shipping ore. The quartz is identicai
in appearance with the famous Seven
Troughs rock, which fact is looked upon
by the management as being very en-
couraging.
Seven Troughs Eclipse
f. w. Kelly and William Craig, prom
inently interested in the Seven Troughs
Elipse Mining company, arrived from
Salt Lake City this week and made an
extensive examination of the Eclipse
property. Their visit was the signal for
the commencement of prosecuting oper-
ations from the bottom of the shaft and
was the result of most favorable reports
from the mine. At the one hundred and
eighty-foot level, the shaft penetrated
a vein dipping west which disclosed a
very substantial body of ore.
New Plant Ready
Unless unavoidable delays arise, the
recently purchased forty horse power
gasoline engine, five drill air compressor,
air drills and big pump for the lease OF
the Wihuja Gold Mines company, on the
estate of the Seven Troughs Therien
Mines company, will be in operation
soon after the first of mex month.

Republican Panics

We challenge the Republican claim
that the progress of the country during
the past years are due to Republican
policies. Thoughtful people know that
every great panic that has swept over
the country since the close of the civil
war has come with Republican policies
in full force and effect and the country
is even now suffering from financial de-
preston and industrial paralysis.

Senator Newlands

We take pleasure and pride in pre-
senting as our candidate for United
States senator to succeed himself the
Hon. Francis G. Newlands, whose career
in congress is now a part of the nations
history, who was more instrumental
than any other man in establishing the
great irrigation and reclamation system,
which has been of such inestimable ben
eft to the people of our state. We
pledge the Democratic members OF the
next legislature to vote for him unless
the Republican party shall comply with
the conditions set out in a resolution
adopted by this convention, in which
event we pledge the Democratic mem
bers of the legislature to vote for the
candidate receiving the highest number
of votes in the state at the next gen.
eral election.

The following resolution was adopted
at the Tonopah convention:
Whereas, The Honorable Francis G..
Newlands has been Endorsed by this
convention as the choice of the Demo
cratic party for United States senator
from the state of Nevada, and
Whereas, The Honorable P. F. Flani-
gan has been Endorsed as the choice of
the Republican party for such office,
Now, therefore, this Democratic state
convention hereby authorizes and EN-
powers the chairman of the Democratic
state central committee to confer with a

fed to the secretary of state as the
nominee of this convention for United

Regulate Mining Business

This convention recommends the en-
actment by the next legislature OF a
stringent law regulating the business
of mining in this state whereby leg1ti
mate development of our mineral re-
sources may be segregated from the
operations of s~windling wildcat com
panies.
We demand that the next legislature
enact a law creating the office OF min
ing Inspector, whose duty it shall be to
see that the lives and health OF men
employed in the mines shall be properly
safe-puarded and considered.

For the People

We point with pride to the com
mendable, constructive and beneficial
legislation which has been enacted by
the Democratic party for the benefit of
the people of this state and refer espe-
cially to the eight hour labor law, the
employers liability act, the railroad
commission act, the law permitting
school districts to issue bonds for the
construction of school houses, the state
irrigation act and the acts providing
for the gradual and progressive reduc-
ton Of a tax rate to the counties, cities
and towns, under which marked reduc-
tions in taxation have been made.

The Public Schools
We r~eiterate our former pledge to en-
courage education and provide literally
for the public schools and the State
University.
We strongly recommend legislation
providing means of support for newly
organized school districts, and further
legislation looking towards additional
revenue sufficient to make possible at
least nine months school for every dis
trict in Nevada.

Conclusion
With confidence in our present chief
executive. Acting Governor Dickerson,
proud of the record made by the Democ-
racv in Nevada since it "came into its
own.o and resumed the control of the
affairs of the state, firm in the convic-
ton that by a faithful adherence to
true Democratic principles the govern
ment of our state will be wisely, hon
estly and economically administered,
furnishing a perfect exemplifcation OF
the truth that, in Nevada, the people
actually rule, we invite the support and
patriotic cooperation of every voter OF
the state, irrespective Of former party
affiliations. With this statement of our
principles we await without fear and
doubt the result of the approaching
battle of ballots which will result in the
election of every candidate named by
this convention, and give three votes in
the electoral college to Democracy's
leaders. William Jennings Bryan and
Worth Kern.

DEMOCRATIC PLATFORM
MEANS SOMETHING
Text of Declaration Adopted at TOnOpah
aud the Senatorial Agreement

The Democrats of Nevada, in conven-
tion assembled, unquali6edly indorse, in
letter and spirit, the declaration of
principles recently adopted by the rep
resentatives of the party assembled at
Denver, Colorado, and hereby pledge
the support of the united Democracy of
Nevada to that answering champion
of the rights of the common people,
William Jennings Bryan of Nebraska.
Senators by Popular Vote
We especially renew our demand for
an amendment to the Federal Constitu-
ton providing for the election of
United States senator's by the direct
vote of the people, and condemn the at
tituae of the Republican senate ma
jority in refusing the demand of the
people for such amendment.
Demand Primary Law
Until such amendment can be
adopted, we favor the passage by the
legislature of this state of a law gov
erning both primary and general eiec-
lions similar to that in force and eff
feet in the state of Oregon, which vir-
tually insures the election of United
States senator's by direct vote of the
people; and we pledge all Democratic
legislators in the forthcoming legisla-
ture to vote for a measure of this
character.

Employers Liability Act

The Democratic party, ever the con
sistent friend of labor, has to its credit
practically all of the legislation now
upon our statute books, favorable tt
the working classes. Democrats poin'
with pride at their triumphs over Re
publican opposition at the last regular
session of our legislature, in passing
an effective employers liability act.
The Goldfield news. [volume] (Goldfield, Nev.) 1904-1911, 1908-09-26
Law and Order

We are in favor of a rigid and i'm
partial enforcement of the laws for the
protection of both persons and property
and for the maintenance of peace and
order within the confines of our state.
We feel that if the state should leave
itself powerless to deal with the emer-
gencies as they arise, it can never en-
joy the respect and confidence of either
its sister states or the national govern
ment and that it's progress and pros
perity will be seriously retarded by the
fear of both labor and capital that their
respective rights will not be adequately
protected.
We therefore demand that the pres
ent State Police law be maintained with
such amendments as will insure against
abuse of power, interference in local
affairs, except where the local officers
are unable or unwilling to perform their
sworn duty and will guard against the
police force ~degenerating into'a politi-
cal machine.
We condemn as eowardly, unpatriotie
and unworthy tha action of the recent
Republican convention in refusing for
demagogic political purposes any direct
to, or endorsement of this
although the passage of the
law was advocated by every Republican
newspaper IN the state and the bill re-
ceived the support, with but two ex-
ceptions, of every Republican member
of the s.ats legislature.
ri. Of Injunction
We specifically cons the plank in
he Nlticnel Democratic platform re-
