Timber Ruling Puts FdirpIay District "Up
Against P'--GOldyke District Showing
Some Rich Ores.

What is known as the Ratio property
is at present closed down. They
have some very good looking high
grade ore blocked out. The Griggs-
Atwood lease, upon which mill was
recently erected, has closed down for
the present on account of difficulty
among the partners.
ut is understood that the Lone
Star and Oddie properties will soon
start up work again. The Pactolus
property which is under the control
of Louis Mau and'his father will soon
start in operations again, Mr.. Mau
having arrived with party of cap
italists during my visit to the camp.
81 must say that of all the camps
l have visited in Nevada, the Fair
play district is the most promising
and yet the most neglected one of
them all. The district has been sur
rounded by a chain of unfortunate
circumstances and only recently to
add to their troubles, the government
has prohibited the appropriation of
timber, thus causing the closing
down of the Goldyke Reef mill,
which was operating on the Oddie
ores, and which has all but caused
the closing down of the Gold Crown,
the same being obliged to run a
steam pump. The timber regula-
tions, affecting the Fairplay district,
are in my opinion, abominable, for
the reason that the scraggly, dwarfed
and unsightly nut pine which covers
Paradise mountain and the surrund-
ing hills can never be used for any
other purpose than for mining; and
laws should be passed for the relief
/ and not for the oppression of the
miners of that district, because it
costs small fortune to haul wood
and timbers in to the camp, from
afar. With proper assistance from
the government and from capitalists
the Fairplay district has the max.
ing of sure winner.

CAMPAIGN POEM

There is a man called Willie Taft
A man of world renown.
He takes this bark of statehood
craft
And sails the world around.
He's master of this lordly main
His knowledge fills us all with
cheer.
We for him our president pro-
claim.
To protect us from all fear.
Chorus
Hurrah, Hurrah for our big Bill!
This land he'll free from every
i'll.
From seas to seas his might is
known,
He's this great nations corner
stone.
The East and West his power
will feel,
The North and South join in
the spiel.
Every nation feels his power,
William Taft's the man of the
hour.
Since Teddy is in honor bound,
This craft of state to pass
around,
Then our big Bill this place must
To save our country from all
ill.
William Taft's the peoples
friend,
We can trust him to the end.
No money can bride him to be
untrue
To his home, his country, to me
and to you.
Three cheers, three, for Ohio's
son,
On him we'll press the honor
won,
To him we'll trust our country's
fame
And with laurels wreath his
name.
Ohio's son, he's the man of the
hour,
No stauncher one can WELD the
power.
Here's to his health, his battle
won,
Long live to rule, Ohio's son.
