SEVEN TROUGHS Is LIKE
GOLDFIELD AND CRIPPLE

As a result of the visit of % members
of the Nevada Commercial League of
Reno, as guests of the Seven Troughs
Publicity association, 23 prominent
business and mining men returned to
the metropolis of Nevada to tell the
citizens of that city that Seven
Troughs, which lies at its door, is the
greatest of the younger mining dis
tricts in Nevada and that it offers un-
limited trade possibilities. Such was
the expressed sentiments of practically
every member of the pay after the
properties had been visited Tuesday
and Wednesday and the excursionists
had mingled in speech and social inter
course with their hosts at Vernon,
Seven Troughs and Mazuma.
CRIPPLE CREEK FEATURE
The Seven Troughs district is great
in what already has been proven; in
the prospects opened by development
accomplished it is the largest and the
richest gold district yet discovered in
this country. The mining nan who is
familiar with conditions in Cripple
Creek is likely to become wild over
Seven Troughs. Geologically, Seven
Troughs has many points in common
with Cripple Creek as well as with
Goldfeld. It has a similar system of
great basaltic and andesitic dykes, the
porphyry or rhyolite between cut by
true assures, within which at intervals
are the shoots Of pay ore. In Seven
Troughs usually the vein matter be-
tween the ore shoots carries milling
values, but in some cases it is barren.
ANOTHER RICH SHIPMENT
1t is learned upon good authority,
says the Seven Troughs Miner, that
the Mazuma Hills Mining and Leasing
company, operating the Reagan Lease
on the property of the Mazuma Hills
Mining company in Seven Troughs
canyon, will send out another shipment
of ore within the next few days to the
shelters at Salt Lake City. The ship
ment will be made up of twenty-five
tons of rock that will average between
four and five hundred dollars a ton. The
last shipment of twenty-five tons from
the lease, about three weeks ago, gave
an average assay of better than four
hundred dollars a ton. The shipment
to be made in the next few days will
be made up of a slightly higher grade.

MOORE'S CREEK IS ONE OF
NEW PROMISING CAMP

A number of Goldfeld people have
gone out during the week to Moore
Creek, where a new Thineralized zone
has been discovered.
According to the Nugget the strike
proper is on Little Creek but Moore
Creek, a short distance to the north is
the main stream from which the vicin-
ity gets it's nam and which will prob
ably be retained when that country is
incorporated as a mining district.
1t is quite probable that a meeting
of the pioneers will be held shortly to
elect a recorder for the district at
which time it may be decided to chris
ten the district by an altogether diff
ferent name as it is claimed by some
that there has already been or is now
another Moore's Creek district in the
state.
Burros and wagons loaded with pro-
visions and camping outfits have been
heading for the north every day during
the past week and it seems more than
likely that from this time on, there will
be considerable activity, if not excite
ment in that vicinity.
Certainly the showings and prospects
which have been revealed and are being
revealed each day warrant more than a
mere passing mention. Considering the
fact that there is nothing there that
may lay claim to being more than a
prospect hole, the showing Of gold is
little short Of remarkable.
The leasers on the Baby claim are
sacking high grade ore and they are
rapidly building up dumps of milling
ore which they claim have given aver
age assay returns of $40 to the ton.
About three-fourths of a mile away
the Frenzel lease is taking out shipping

MANHATTAN GETTING RICH
ON LITIGATION HILL

a placer lease on the Little Grey estate
have resumed operations, or at least
are preparing so to do. Mr.. Cole re-
turned to camp recently from Los An
geles where he passed the winter
bringing with him a complete new
equipment for working the ground, In
GLIDING pump, pipe and other aPpar,
atus. Owing to the delay experienced
last year in getting matters in shape
for work the ~lessees got little action
prior to the shutting in of winter. just
prior to shutting down the lease, how
ever, they were running remarkably
rich auriferous gravel through the
boxes. For that reason there is every
reason to predict a successful sum
mer's work for them.
Over on Gold Crater ground work Is
progressing both on company account
and by lessee. The latter is working to
good purpose and with the prospect of
cleaning up well long before lease ex-
piration. The average grade of the ore
being mined is approximately $50 gold
the ton. In some isolated instances the
average grade has topped that figure,
Such as has gone to mill, however, was
settled for on the basis quoted.
As has ever been the case. such work
as is being done on the Union No. :
claim of the Dexter company is by
lessee. This acreage has not been In
favor with the leaser for many months
but now that the company has seen iii
to reduce the really extortionate roy
atty formerly assessed it appears posi-
BILE that there will be a renewal of min
ing energy thereon. There are severaI
thousand tons of ore on dump which
has an average gold grade of about S2t
the ton. 1t is asserted by the company
officials that this dump quartz is to bt
moved at once.
Berry and Gitchell, leasing on the
Toro Blanco, have more than 300 sack:
Of high grade ore stored in the drift
at the 35-foot level. 1t is to be reduced
as soon as the concentration is placed
at the plant of the CANYON Milling
company of Manhattan. The work a.
present being carried on is in the drift
10 feet south of the upraise made some
time since between the 35-foot leve
and surface. As the ledge is followed
it is holding well its size, and shows
decided tendency to increase its pre-
cious metal content. The drive is be
ing sent out to contact with the mali
dyke, yet some 90 feet in advance o.
the miners. It is believed that an i'm
mense ore shoot will be encountered
once the ledge is well entered.

sELBY WILL BUILD MILL

AT a meeting of the directors of the
Selby Consolidated company held in
Reno Tuesday evening, the final details
in connection with the big mill to be
erected by the company were settled.
Work will be started on the grading
for the plant on Tuesday morning, and
from that time on no effort will be
spared to rush the plant to completion.
The company has finally settled on a
75-ton stamp mill as being best suited
to its requirements. The lumber, nearly
$4,000 feet in all, has been ordered, and
part of it is already on the ground.
One-half Of the mill, or 10 stamps, will
be ready as soon as the foundation and
battery blocks are laid. The plans call
more stamps, which will be installed as
soon as received. In this names the
company will be able to begin crushing
ore with part of the mill much sooner
than was originally planned.
VAN ETTEN HAS ORE
The rich finds made on the Empire
last week in the Van Etten-Foster and
B. B. & NJ. leases grow better with each
foot of development.
The shaft on the Van Etten lease is
now down 35 feet, and the walls are
not yet fully defined. The entire bot
tom of the shaft is still in ore that as
says from $35 to $37 per ton, and sink
ing is still being continued.
STREAK OF HIGH GRADE
The Selby Consolidated company has
struck another streak Of high grade
ore in the air shaft being sunk to inter
sect the north drift from the Barge
shaft. 1t is entirely separate and dis
tinct from the vein that has made the
camp famous.

thirty feet. 1t has PANIED free gold
from the grass roots down.
The Poor Stiff group of claims owned
by Messrs. Breitstein, Morse and Bart
lett adjoins the Frenzel lease to the
west and good assays are returned from
the rock which is being taken out of
the location holes. One assay taken
from the various parts of a ten-foot
location hole, on what appears to be a
seam, gave gold and silver returns
which run in the neighborhood of 800.
william Ryckman, Ed Holtz, Harlan
AGREE, Guy Champion and others are
finding gold values during the progress
of their location work.
The new arrivals, after looking over
the ground, at once become imbued
with the same enthusiasm as those who
came before them and men who have
gone out to Moore's Creek to look it
over nave returned to Round Mountain
for a bill of goods with which to set up
a camp in the little new bonanza pros
peet.
There is plenty of wood and pater in
the Moore's Creek district so that if
rel a big ore body is uncovered it will
not lack for the necessary means to
carry on milling. In the meantime,
however, the road between Moore's
Creek and Round Mountain is a toler-
ably good one and it will be less than
a fifteen mile haul to get the ore to the
custom mill here so that the mines at
Moore's Creek will have an easy means
of getting the returns as the result of
their labors without having to wait al
indefinite period for their own milling
facilities.

Manhattan, New, April 23.-Nothing
out of the ordinary course had rams
PRED in mining circles the present week
at time of forwarding these dispatches.
For some weeks past there has been a
marked increase apparent in the min
ing industry of the camp, and this has
in turn stimulated the confidence of
such doubters as were on the teeter-
board of INDIGESTION as to whether or not
resume operations. From present indi-
cations it is safe to assert that Man
haitian is to enjoy 2 summer of pros
perity, with mines and mills working
at top capacity, with many leasers on
the job and with a fair influx of capital
from outside points.
That the lessee is to be the most i'm
portant factor of all in the era of good
times so near at hand Is already mani
fest. He is already girding up his
loins for the summer campaign. and is
extending the scope of his endeavor.
At present he is working on Litigation
hill, OF Seyler- Humphrey hill, on Mus
tang hill, on Gold hill, in the section
below and adjacent to Central and well
to the east and north of the Litigation
hill section. His more successful en-
deavors attach to the Earl estate on
Litigation hill. On that acreage For
man is mining high grade and has a
shaft down nearly so feet in the ledge
which he opened up some weeks since
at surface. This ledge has never failed
him in way of premier values from
surface down. At the 50-foot point the
ledge is to be crosscut and drifted on
1t appears probable that such action
will result in the opening up of an ore
shoot Of magnitude and of great wealth
At the johnson block on the same
acreage Manhattan's bulky postmaster
is mining ore of great intrinsic worth
The ledge being tested is a continuation
of that from which Forman is mining
a fortune. II carries the same high
class gold values on both blocks. John
son has made one shipment and is pre-
pairing to send out another. While
mined at comparatively nominal depth
the quartz presents many evidences OF
topping a ledge having permanency AT
depth. This encouraged the lessee is
preparing to sink a deep main working
shaft. As soon as sufficient depth is
gained he will equip it's collar with a
plant of machinery.

Jumbo his arrived. The new camp
in the shadow of the billion dollar
Comstock is making good. Leasers are
rapidly securing the best ground of
the district, and new strikes are al
most of daily occurrence, says the

The first essential requisite of a min
ing camp is ore. Jumbo has the ore,
and in large quantities. 1t will prove
both a milling and a high grade camp.
The next valuable factor necessary
to the progress of any mining district
is water and power. In this respect
Jumbo is especially fortunate and to a
degree unsurpassed anywhere in the
state.

WILL BE BIG
SHIPPER FOR MANY YEARS

The story that Fairview is a per
petual shipper has become an old on.
but it is an established fact, SAYS the
Mining News. The Nevada Hills has
averaged a load of ore for every day
that it has been operating, and the IRE
wagons are still going out with the
same regularity as in the past. Man
ager Weber said a few days ago that
it would be a long time before I'll the
ore was taken out of this phenomenal
deposit.
1t is reported that new strikes have
been made at several points in the
workings. An ore body found where
the Knox lease lost the lead last sum
mer promises to be a big thing, as the
ore is sulphide in character. The ore
body struck at the 150-foot level holds
out as strong as when first encountered.
1t is reported that a rich strike was
made in the number three tuuneel
Strikes are so common in this mine
that they nc longer cause wen a iutter
locally. The Nevada Hills has pro-
duced more ore and made more money
for its stockholders in the way of divi-
dends than has any other mine of equal
age in this or any other country, and
she will continue at the same rate for
many years to come.

SMALL CHANCE FOR TAFTS
PHILIPPINE SUGAR TARIFF

| OF bill by it. Senator Culberson in
attempting to play petty politics in
the matter has suffered a great loss in
his reputation as a broadminded states
man.
That ultimate justice will be accord
ed the Filipinos. however, is foregone
conclusion. Secretary Taft will not sur
render. ApropOs of his plan to give at
least partial free trade to the islands
with respect to their commerce with
the United States, 1 am able to present
some specific details of his policy that
are not generally known. There has
been considerable misapprehension as
to what the American official who has
given the most studious attention 10
the whole Philippine problem seeks to
accomplish. Contrary to a widespread
belief, Secretary Taft does not wish to
build up immense tobacco and sugar
growing industries in the Philippines;
all he wants is the establishment of
these industries on the same plane they
occupied before their previous markets
were eurtailsd.
The Secretary Of War does not want
the people of the Philippines to be
brought into the same situation as the
people of Cuba He realizes that if
the islands be given over to tobacco
and sugar the industries viii come IN
der the control of a group of capital
lists, mostly aliens, while the masses OF
the population viii form proletariat
such as has grown up in Cuba under
ike circumstances and conditions.
To develop a population Of small
farmers IS the real object. This can
not be accomplished by tremendous en-
-eouragement Of sugar and tobacco eul-
tivation Hemp is raised under differ
snt conditions and gives an ideal chance
for the small farmer. This is the kind
Of farming it is planned to encourage
and there Is no tariff on hemp. When
the people here realize how little the
removal OF tariff burdens really
means to the producers in this
country the utter selfshness Of the in
terests that are powerful enough to stay
justice will seed no comment. The idea
that free sugar and tobacco, under tho
only policy in mind, win permit the
Philippines to food the United States
with their products IS a mere bugaboo.

the Philippines That contamination
