CLAIMS NEAR
GYPSUM

F. II. Piper, who has been doing the
development work on his Messna
group of lead and silver claims, at
Gypsum. about eight miles northeast
of Lovelock, arrived in town Monday,
and left that evening for Ogden, Utah.
Mr.. Piper is an old Leadville, Colo
RADIO, man, and knows a good looking
prospect when he sees it. He is quite
enthusiastic over the outlook at Gyp-
sum and judging from the ore from
his claims, samples of which were left
at the Tribune Office, he has an excel
lent showing.
The ore is of the lead silver variety
and comes from 16-inch ledge be
tween limestone and slate. Occasional
traces of free gold are found in the
foot wall The work so far done has
cen sinking on the ledge and at q
depth of ten feet, the ore body has Civ
en- evidences of widening. as well os
improving in general richness.
Mr.. Piper expects to return to Love-
'ock next summer and continue work
on the claims.

GENATOR BAILEY OF TEXAS
CALLS ON THE PRESIDENT

A Washington dispatch under a
March 10th date line says: One of the
vents of the day which attracted most
..itention in official and newspaper cir
cles, was the visit made by Senator
Joseph W. Bailey of Texas to the
white House. 1t was merely courtesy
visit on the part of the senator to pay
his respects to the new president, but
t was noticeable because of the fact
that Mr.. Bailey had not been inside of
the White House for seven years. He
ceased his social visits when President
Roosevelt entertained Booker Washing
ton, and after the president 8 breach
OF faith with him and Tillman in the
rate fight. Senator Bailey had moth
ing but contempt for President Roose
welt, and never had anything more to
do with him.
United States Senator Bailey of
Texas is an uncle of E. d. Bailey, the
wellknown Lovelocker, and the latter,
speaking of the above dispatch, con-
firms the Importance and significance
of the apparent amicable relationship
between the Texas senator and the new
president. Mr.. Bailey knows Texas
conditions like book, and he says the
friendship between the Texas senator
and the new president will do much
toward swinging the great Lone Star
state into position of friendly CO.
