Ore Purchasing company at Cold
field, and Mr.. Doherty says the ore
will run something like $3.50 to the
ton. That's ore. The boys have just
been sorting their dump, and from
it have stacked up an enormous pile
of ore which will run better than
500 per ton. With the construction
of the Clarke smelter road from
Ely across in this direction, the Sill
yer Bow, Clifford, Golden Arrow and
Bellehelen properties will be given
shipping facilities which will enable
them to handle much ore which is too
low grade to haul, and yet which
contains rich values. And it is not
improbable that the influx of eastern
ers into that territory, all looking for
good investments, will result in the
erection of a mill somewhere in that
district which can handle all the low
grade ore at good profit. BY the
way, if that railroad is built it will
probably cut through the Gold Reef
townsite.

BARTLETT and
BEDFORD SPOKE
WEDNESDAY, eve

The campaign VISIT of Hon. George
A. Bartlett to his constituents in
Tonopah on Wednesday night was
the occasion for quite a political
gathering in Miners Exchange hall,
Mr.. Bartlett and Hon. Sam Bedford,
an old political warhorse of oratori-
cal fame, being the speakers Of the
evening. The crowd was mildly en-
thusiastic, most of the enthusiasm
being personal tribute to Tonopah's
most favored son, George A. Bartlett,
whose greatest mistake is that of be-
ing Democrat.
Bedford was listened to-and that
was abby the audience for quite a
long time, he trying to cover the po-
litical catalogue from A to lizard.
When he finally subsidized, Congress-
man Bartlett made oneaof his custo-
mary straightforward talks, and it
was appreciated by his listeners.

THE CLIFFORD
DISTRICT is
SHIPPING ORE


The Broken Hills mine, at Clifford,
is now shipping steadily to the sam
pier at Millers, and the grade of the
ore that is being sent out, according
to mine assays will average at least
$3.50 a ton. On company account
there are eighteen men on the pay
roll, and the work of driving the drift
in the ore shoot at the 115-foot, or
bottom level, is being diligently pro-
secuted, and on a wide body of pay
ore.
J. c. Mccormack, president and
manager of the company, arrived in
town yesterday from the mine, and
will return early this morning.
''The new road to the camp from
Goldfield," he said last night, which
some of the papers have been pleased
to call Mccormack, is in fair condi-
ton. Two men and two scrapers,
with four horses to drag them will
take the road early next week, am
going to make that road the best one
running into Clifford and neighbor-
ing camps. 1t will cut off the wagon
haul at least day from Goldfield,
as it has been necessary to take the
Tonopah route heretofore" - Tri-

WANTS A LEASE
AT SILVER BOW
Fastener FdVOrdbIy Impressed With that
District and Has $40, 900 to Spend
shipment of Rich Ore.

Silver Bow, fifty miles to the
southeast of Tonopah, is looking up,
according to F. NJ. Dorothy, who
came in from that camp yesterday.
He states that much development
work is being done there and that a
number of eastern capitalists have
ebeen there looking over the proper
ties. They all say that some of the
finest assays they have seen in any
of the Nevada districts are secured
from workings in that section. One
eastern gentleman, who has been in
-vestigating the Jennie X, better
known as the Shotgun claim, has
applied for an option on the property,
agreeing to spend $4,000 in develop
ment work on the property if given
the lease. 1t is understood that the
lease will be given and the develop
nent work soon started.
The Sweet boys have just shipped
carload of ore from their lease on
the Silver Bow Belle to the Western

which will assay over $40 ton.
They have also several good lodges
of high grade shipping ore, besides
several immense lodges of low grade
ore blocked out The mill has DEM
orsti ated that ore going SIS ton
can be handled with a. good profit
and in all probability larger mill
will soon be installed.
The starting of the mill has stimu-
lated the mining industry through
out that district and the old town Of
Belmont has taken on new lease of
life. The camp has been visited by
several representatives of eastern
capital and when their reports have
been made it is thought that num-
Der of other companies will com
mence operation.
Mr.. Wilson will return to Belmont
this morning.

NEW LIFE FOR
OLD BELMONT
New Concern Takes Over the Old COmbi-
nation Mill, and Will Work Up Vast
Quantities of Low Grade Ore

C. A. Wilson is in from Belmont,
where he is connected with the Bel
mont Security and Development
company. That company has secured
the old Combination mill and has in
stalled Turner mill with capacity
of $50 tons daily. The mill has been
in operation nearly month under
the supervision of T. B. Bassett, a
we'll known mill and mining man
from Los Angeles, and the results are
more than satisfactory, as over 80
per cent of the values are saved
The company has in addition ac-
quired several of the old Belmont
mines which were worked thirty five
years ago, when only high grade ore
was extracted, the low grade being
thrown into the slopes. 1t is esti-
mated that there is 100000 tons of
this low grade ore already mined and

Mr Weathers came TO Guthris Ia
1906 to compete for the plans on the
Logan county court house Having
won in that contest, he established
offices here and has since then made
this one OF his principle places Of
business. He also has an Office in
Kansas City and associate offices at
Union square in New York CITY He
began to design public buildings
eighteen years ago. his office educa-
tion having been finished, and ne has
been planning such structures ever
since. The demand for his services are
growing greater ana greater every
year. He designed the Lincoln county
court house, and has designed forty
two court houses over the country, be-
sides many other important public
structures. In shogt, Mr.. Weathers
is one of the most prominent public
building designers in the country. and
he owes his prominences to his ability
to make good on the jobs he has been
commissioned on all over the country
Mr.. Weathers employs the best
specialists In the country to assist him,
such as steel construction engineers.
sanitary engine heating engineers.
electrical engineers, etc. THIS Inn
poiNant fact, has also sided him wcn-
derfully in the success of his business.
The men who are In charge OF letting
OF contracts for large public buildings,
want to know that the plans they ac-
cept are all right. When they know
that the best engineering skill Of the
country is back OF a mans plans then
they are ready at least to consider
such plans and the chances are that
they will inyaribly pass favorably on
them.
"A short while ago Mr.. Weathecs
went TO New York to compete for
the plans OF the county court house
In Schenectady county. There were
sixteen competitors ana Mr. Westhsrs

ally think that New York could lay
