NEVADA JOHNNIE MAKING
MINE IN ITS NEW GROUND
Develops Ore Bodies on Claims Pur.
chased in September from
BuIIfroe Johnnie

The Nevada Johnnie Mining COM
pany, which added to its holdings in
Nye county, Nevada, by the purchase
of the Bullfrog-Johnnie, consisting of
five claims on the big Johnnie-Crown
Point Globe ore channel in September
has continued development work with
good prospects of soon putting the
mine on basis where a mill can be
used to advantage.
The success of the Johnnie and the
Crown Point Globe, both of which have
large bodies of ore blocked out. was
the cause of the purchase of the Bull
frog-Johnnie territory, which adjOlns
the Crown Point Globe on the south.
The Nevada Johnnie Mining company
is governed by an official family whose
names inspire confidence in the future
of the mine. Al D. Myers of the john
ME is president. Edward Double, pres
ident of the Union Tool company and
inventor Of the Ideal stamp mill, is
vice president, and A. w. Redman of
the same company and II. NJ. Barton,
all of Los Angeles, form the board of
directors, with one member yet to be
elected.
The connection of Mr.. Doubleday
with the company insures that a mod
rrn mill will be forthcoming just as
soon as conditions underground war
rant. Two shafts have been sunk and
one tunnel driven in ore of a milling
grade, and development work is now
under way.
Carl Anderson, who rounded out the
Johnnie and as superintendent put the
mine on a producing and dividend pay
ing basis, has great confidence in the
value of the Bullfrog- Johnnie ground,
and says that the locations cover the
same ore channel which has been so
IL, l.,
expects to see the company soon in a
position where the ores can be treated
locally and regular shipments of bull
lion made.

ARCHITECT DENIES
CHARGES OF HAYES
A. C. SMITH SAYS CONTRACTOR
WAS WARNED FOUR TIMES
Man Said to Be Indebted to Work"
men Advised That Washington
Park School Work Was
Wrong

No steps, legal or otherwise, to get
their pay were taken yesterday by the
five men who quit work on the WASH
ington park schoolhouse after the con-
tractor, Edward Hayes, had become IN
debted to them more than $500 for their
labor. In refutation of the statements
of II. f. Russell, leader in the walk
out, that A. c. Smith, the architect,
was in a way responsible because he
allowed the work to progress to almost
completion before calling Hayes TO &C
count for failing to comply with the
specifications. Mr.. Smith, for himself
and on behalf of the Washington Park
board of trustees, said yesterday ne
had Inspected the building at least four
times and on each occasion had warned
Hayes that he must erect the entire
building according to the plans given
him or the work would not be accepted
and no further payments would be
made.
The last notice sent to Contractor
Hayes by Mr.. Smith was dated October
10, few days before the work was
condemned and the contractor relieved.
This notice called Hayes attention to
the poor quality of his work from
foundation to roof, Mr. Smith mention
ing among other items which must be
made to conform to the specifications
before the building would be accepted
the following:
The removal of contrete walls in the
basement, which were apparently built
of very weak concrete mixture, lacking
sufficient cement to make them reason
ably solid; the excavation and leveling
of the grounds; rebuilding of the partl-
tion walls; Strengthening of crooked
partitions; cutting of doorways in the
basement walls and the plasterinG of
the outside walls with strong mortar.
Mr.. Smith also says he called to
Hayes attention and ordered the con-
tractor to remedy defects in other parts
of the building, the front wall of which
appeared to be out of plumb four
inches. His inspection also showed that
Hayes was using a thinner grade of
flooring than that called for in the
specifications and the contractor was
told to remedy this defect
Hayes was relieved on an order made
by the district attorneys office, where
Mr.. Smith and the board of trustees
reported the failure to comply with the
specifications.

Democratic League. Cooperating with
Good Government Organization,
Endorses Council Candidates

her. But in the wisdom of it's counsels
that body has determined that 1t will
make no recommendation or sugges-
ton In this behalf. There is little
doubt that If the Good Government
organization had made such recon-
mendation this league would have ap-
proved the same. But since IL failed
to do so this league has felt that it
was incumbent upon 1t to investigate
as far as practicable the character
and qualifications of the numerous
candidates for the council and par
tlcularly of those who have been affil-
lated with the Good Government move
ment, and IL has accordingly under
taken to do so.
AS n result of such investigation and
consideration of the personnel of that
body of candidates 1t has determined
to suggest and recommend the follow
ing list of names as those of persons
who, as this league believes, will carry
forward the policies and reforms for
which the movement for good govern
ment In this city stands, to wit:
JOHN ID. WORKS, RICHMOND PLANT,
T. L. O'BRIEN, ROBERT NJ. LUSK,
CHARLES II. RANDALL, II. j. WoOLLA-
COLT, JOSEAS j. ANDREWS, FRANK
WALKER, MARTIN +. BETKOUsKI.
In recommending these names this
league is not insensible of the fact
that there are other men in the long
list of candidates for the council who
are we'll qualified for the position and
in all respects worthy of the confidence
and suffrage of their fellow citizens,
but it must be remembered that there
are but nine councilmen to be elected
and but nine names can be voted for
in the primary election.
Respectfully submitted,
DEMOCRATIC LEAGUE.

AS the result of misplaced confidence
in a new found friend, John Schmick,
who came to Los Angeles from Coal

gold watch, a two-karat diamond stud,
a pair of diamond-set cuff buttons, a
diamond-studded watch charm and a
