The shaft and incline are now down

ore. At the latter depth the ore body
is beginning to dip toward the old
workings of the mine, which the leasers
believe is q splendid indication that
they are oil the apex Of q large ore
body.
While they now have over 800 sacks
Of ore on the dump. they are not en-

facilities will admit.
The character of the ore still con-

judging from looks Of the ore. that the
gold values in the same are increasing.

ASK MAIL ROUTE TO DUcKWATER
Petition Circulated Requesting
Department to Establish One
Via Eureka

This week a petition was being cir.
culated in Eureka among the residents
and business citizens for signatures. 1t
is addressed to the Honorable Second
Assistant Postmaster General at Wash.
ington. d. O.. respectfully requesting
the re-establishment of a mail route be-
tween Eureka aud Duckwater, Nye
County. Among other reasons the fol.
lowing are the most urgent set forth in
the petition:
The only mail service at present be-
tween Duckwater. Currant Creek and
vicinity is by way of Cobre. ON the main
line of the Southern Pacific in Exc
County. Ely and Hamilton. White Pine
County. The distance from Cobre to
Ely is $50 miles, from Ely to Hamilton
As miles. and from the last named town
to Duckwater 35 miles.
The distance from Palisade on the
main line of the Southern Pacific Rail.
road to Eureka is "a miles, and from
Eureka to Duck water about so miles.
The latter place and Currant Greek are
thriving agricultural aud stock raising
communities. as well as possessing min.
ing and fruit growing industries. For
over 40 years the people Of Duckwater
and Currsnt Greek have made the town
of Eureka their principal supply station.
and are anxious to continue doing so.
Being DESTROYS of doing so it is appar.
ent how necessary it is to the transac-
ton Of business that a reasonable mail
service should be in operation between
them.
Under present conditions il takes a
letter from Eureka to Duckwater two
weeks to reach its destination and vice
versa, while with a mail service between
the two places it would take but one day.
Again, the greater part Of the business
and business correspondence between
the people Of Eureka and vicinity and
all places to the south of Eureka, in.
Guiding Duckwater. for a distance of at
least 100 miles, and the outside world,
is done with Reno, Sacramento and San
Francisco and other places to the west
Of Eureka, and as the station at Palisade
is 1875 miles nearer to San Francisco
than is the station at Cobre it is clear
that Palisade and not Cobre should be
the point on the main line at which
mail matter for Duckwater and Currant
Creek should be laid down for final
transportation.
A letter sent from San Francisco to
Duckwater now takes two weeks to
reach the latter place. while between
the same points under a mail service by
way OF Eureka the time in transit would
not exceed three and a half days.
The SENTINEL hopes the Department
will give this matter fair consideration.
as It believes without doubt the re-es
lishment Of the mail route will meet
with the unanimous approval of the
citizens. residents and business interests
of the PAGES named in the petition.
