FInal Cleanup of Engineers Lease.

A Goldfeld dispatch to the Salt Lake Herald says: The Engineers lease on the Florence cleaned up the last ore today, after the most wonder ful record in this camp of rich leases. It is just four months to day since the first ore was loaded, and in that time the gross output has exceeded a million dollars. Four dividends of 90,- OoOs each have been paid, and the pro- fits are expected to reach half a mill lon dollars, large share of which will go to Salt Lake stockholders. All three of the mining engineers who promoted the company call that city their home.
 Three weeks ago the Engineers lease opened up one of the largest shoots of high grade ever exposed in the camp. The ore was close to the line of the lease, on ground that was formerly under lease to the Florence Annex company. This shoot of or' which was undiscovered by the Annex management, nestled the engineers a handsome sum. They were compelled to leave a ten-foot face of quartz glis- tening with gold, face of ore that breaks 1,OOOS per ton. The ore body, which will eventually be mined by the company, is estimated as worth 1,0O0,- OOOS.
 The Florence company celebrated the week of posting its fourth quarter ly dividend of lO5,OOOS, and by com promising litigation with the Little Florence lease which involved 3,000,- OOO$. This dividend brings the total for the year up to 20,OOO$, all of which has been earned by royalties from leasers, besides 3OO,OO0$ which the company has spent in the installation of a modern milling plant and water system. Approximately 5OO,OOO$ re. mains in the treasury. The Florence lease is by far the richest, size con- sidered, in the district. There are still three leases paying steady royal ties, and several more working in a fair grade of ore.

The mine is three miles north of the big producers of Goldfield, and the veining system is entirely different in its course, the principal veins run ming east and west, but the ore is found in the dacite, as iG is in the bo- nanza mines of Goldfeld.

F. P. Andreas recently purchased the Villa Ellena ranch, situated in Japatul valley, about thirty miles east of San Diego. The lands embrace about 4SO acres, one-half of which is tillable, the balance good grazing land. The tillable lands have been planted to fruits of many kinds. Mr. Andreas intends to further improve the property. Mr. Andreas is mining in this section, having large mining interests in Mohave and Yuma coun- ties.

The third story of the Thompson
 Mulligan building is almost complete.
 It presents an imposing appearance
 and will add greatly to the business
 looks of the town.
 Next Tuesday will be election day
 and throughout the country one of the
 greatest fights in the history of the
 Nation will be fought out at the ballot box. No matter which man wins the presidency the country will remain safe and sound. From present indica- tions the election is to be the closest that has taken place in many years and one of the hardest to diagnose from prediction conditions. J. N. Cohenour is sinking a few wells in town with the Ira George machine. Frank Millread has just had well bored at his residence on West Oak street, and J. s. Kolar is having bis well reamed out and will sink it considerably deeper. We be- lieve that well that is sunk below the volcanic capping will strike an artesian flow, or at least have the wa ter raise in the we'll almost to the sur face.
 Mir. and Mrs. G. w. Wells came in from the Treasure Hill camp this morning for the purpose of meeting Judge H. F. Best, president of the company, but when they arrived in town received notice that the Judge would not arrive until Monday even- ing. Mir. Wells informs us that tre Treasure Hill mines are looking fine and that every foot of work done on the properties only accentuates the be- lief that the company has a great property.
 Capt. Casper Taylor departed to the east last Saturday to be gone about one month. When he returns it is understood that he will become gen. eral manager of the firm of Lovin x Withers, the growing business of this firm necessitating buyer and man to look closely after the stock purchas- ing end of the firm. Capt. Taylor is one of the most capable men in the country and the firm are making a wise move in putting him in this re- sponsible position.
 Local candidates are rounding out the campaign in the county and mak- ing last appeal to the voters. Some of them have gone to the expense even of sending out circular letters telling the voters how dear they are to them and what a great saving they have eff. fected while serving them in official capacity. But the people will vote just as they please anyway and these last pleadings will not be taken with other than grain of salt or seda- tive.
