MUST REMOVE MILL
TO NINE THE ORE
IN THE BIG SHOSHONE

The net profits for the first SIX
months of the year 1909 were
s216,500, representing about so pc.
cent of the gross receipts of the
milling operations.
Since John G. Kirchen TOOK
charge, about s225.00O of the In
debtedness of the company has beer
wiped out, and about $4,000 ex-
pended in Improvements.
The present net production is 10
per cent on the par value and more
than 20 per cen on the market
value of the stock, the par value
being IS. per share and the net
profits per year being so cents per
share.
The output is limited only by the
milling facilities, which shortly wi
be increased. Three IONS of ore are
being developed to one ton treated.
Outside investors are beginning q
appreciate the Importance of the i'm
proved conditions, as evidenced b.
the sudden squirt in the price of tae
stock, which Is of no particular in.
%terest to the operators of the prop
erty.
The big mill. which is treating
5000 tons or more per month,
eventually must be moved to make
room for the underground workings,
it having been proven that the ore
exists under the mill.
The first effort to open the ore on
the 700 level, the deepest point IL
the mine workings, was started this
week Tuesday, and the work done
on the levels above will be dupli-
Gated.
The 500 level is showing the best
ore in the mine, with 200 feet Of
stopping ground opened.
Ore for the mill is being hoisted
from Che 200, 800, 400 and 500
levels.
The glory hole has been broken
down to the 300 level, with 100 feet
or more of broken ore in the pit,
The glory hole is $50 feet long,
175 feet wide, with the ore exposed
on three sides.
The new ore body opened up on
the 300-foot level is on the footwall
side, presumably a continuation of
the rhyolite ore body opened on the
west side of the glory hole, but a
separate body from the tale deposit.
On the 800, the rhyolite ore is
about 200 feet distant, in a south
westerly direction from the tale in
the glory hole.
The work on the 800 is develop
ing an underground glory hole, with
the width of about sixty feet of
milling ore now exposed ard the
end not in sight.
Crosscutting from an old stope
between the 300 and 400 levels has
revealed an immense ore body
which is now being broken for the
mill-Rhyollte Herald.

Mr.. Knox will remain in this city
for three or four days after which
he will return to his California

TONOPAH is GOING TO BE
A DIVORCE CENTER

The monopoly that Reno has en-
joyed for a number of years as a
divorces center Is on the verge OF
being cut into a great extent. The
profits that have come to that town
will be cut into, while a portion of
the legal talent that has enjoyed
a good living by furnishing advice
will have to move to other parts.
Tonopah is going to figure in the
future as a divorce center. 1t has
come to light that there are here
at the present time at least three
Divorces establishing a residence.
That there are more to follow is a
known fact.
The Bonanza has become &C.

panionship of the men who swore
to protect them, but for reasons
best known to itself desires at this
time to keep that knowledge to it.
self. That they are folks well
known throughout the social circles
of the country is information that
may be impaired with impunity.
Tonopah welcomes the divorce
colony. There are lawyers here
just as capable of handling the af-
fairs Of women who want divorce;
as any in the state. It is hintet
that one of the leading legal lights

IRA FANCHER HERE
FROM BIG DISTRICT

It's a pleasure to meet the
Georges canyon operators. What
ever else may be said, it remains
the truth that those who are the
most heavily interested there are
not given to shouting the praises of
that district in a manner that
makes one accept the truth of state
ments with a grain of salt.
Georges canyon people tell their
stories with a ring of genuine
truth.
The latest arrival from Georges
canyon is Ira Fancher who reach
ed Tonopah yesterday, He is quite
heavily interested in that section.

senate today raised the question as
to whether it would not be wise in en-
acting the proposed excise law to fol-
low the exact text of the tax imposed
BY the war revenue act and under
consideration in the Spreckels case. He
also asked whether equally Denefi-
cial results IN the shape of revenue

Mr.. Newhnds asserted that while

cupatlon OF refining petroleum or SUI
gar whether. done by person, firm
or corporation.
"If the tax suggested by the prcsi-
dent" continued Mr. Ncwlands. lis TO
be regarded as an occupation tax, may
not the question be raised that the
rule Of uniformity is broken by APP
plying this occupation to corporations
alone and not to natural persons.
"If. however. Il be held that the
suggested tax is. as the president as

Since the excise tax on refiners Of

receipts above certain amount. has
been approved by the supreme court.
Mr. Newiands suggested that IL could

of its course yesterday Instead Of
acting on the schedules as in several

four hours and was followed by Mr.
Bailey at almost as great length.
Mr. Newlands was The last Of the
days orators ana had not long sur
rendered the moor when the senate
adjourned.
Mr.. Beveridge discussed an amend
ment proposed by him regarding the
size of tobacco packages. He COM
tended that while the size of the
packages had been reduced during
the Spanish war with the end in view
compelling the purchaser to pay the
war tax. those sizes had not been re-
stored nor the prices reduced, not
withstanding the removal of the tax,
thus practically giving the tobacco
manufacturers and especially the to-
bacco trust the advantage Of the tax
even though IL had not been In Opcr-
alton for about nine years He de-
clarcd the trust had influenced legls
lation for this purpose and asserted
IL was being benefited to the extent
of many million dollars a year.
Mr. Bailey talked about free RAJ"
material for the purpose of justifying
his vote as a democrat against the
