CHECK FOR OVER $4,000 RE-
CEIVED AND COMPANY AID
MITS LIABILITY.

GOLDFIELD, June ga check
for 0,01S.49 was received yester-
day by the district attorney from the
Florence Goldfield, in full payment
of the bullion tax for the last quar-
ter of last year. ihcluding penalty
and fees of the district attorney. The
bullion tax for the first quarter of
the present year does not become de-
linquent until Monday next, but it is
highly probable that it will be paid
in due time.
Before Judge Somers, the district
attorney, read section 1928 of the
Nevada statutes, which provides for
discharge of defendant in a mis-
demeanor case providing reparation
is made. Mr. Tilden stated that the
Florence company has made public
acknowledgment of the rights of the
state and county in every respect,
and had delivered the check named in
full payment for bullion tax, with
penalty and fees for the last quarter
of last year.
Judge Somers stated that he desir-
ed to congratulate the grand jury
which so conscientiously looked into
tW bullion tax matter. A month
~. yesterday the attention of the
court was called to the bullion tax
case and, upon investigation, the
court found a violation of the law
The Judge added that the investiga-
ton has been under the direction OF
the district attorney, and that the
people of the county are to be con-
graduated for the fearless discharge
of duty by the district attorney ant
grand jury.

IMMENSE WEALTH
IN KEANE WONDER

RHYOLITE, June Yesterday
Mr.. Wilson and Mr.. Chapman paid a
friendly visit of inspection to the
mines of Pioneer, returning in the
evening. Shortly after their return
Mr. Wilson was called to the tele-
phone by the superintendent at the
Keane Wonder mine, who stated that
he had been calling for him all day,
and wondered where he was. Mr..
Wilson explained that he had visited
Pioneer The superintendent re-
piled:
We'll, you need not go to Pioneer
to see a big mine, for the KeaHe
Wander is now greater than anything
at Pioneer. We have crosscut forty
feet and no hanging wall in sight
over forty feet of ore that averages
better than $25; some of it goes as
high as $50 to the ton, and more
J coming up. This ore carries more
sulphurets and some lead, and is
very irregular"
The crosscut is in the vein opened
up by the new shaft, and is develop
ing body of ore separate and dis
tinct from that which has been sup
plying the mill in the past. This
| immense ore deposit demands in
creased milling facilities and makes
necessary a greater water supply.
The delight of Mr.. Wilson was be-
yond expression.

REVISED LAND LAWS
Recommendation Of Secretary
BaIIinger In His First Report.

Legislation Necessary to Enable the
Government to Retain Control Of
Water Power and Reservoir Sites on
the Public Domain-Prlvate Enter
prise to Be Encouraged Under Ma
tional Supervision and Control.
A strong recommendation that the
public lands and other natural re-
sources shall be held in control of the
government, that the land laws shall be
so changed as to prevent further dep
relations on the public domain, and
an emphatic declaration of his belief
in the policy of conservation, briefly
summarizes the first report of Richard
terror.
Secretary Balllnger's report, 1t Is
known, was scrutinized by President
Taft before 1t was given out for pub
llcation and reflects the attitude the
administration will assume in the
matter OF conservation. The Taft pol
Icy is expressed briefly in this state
mcnt taken from Secretary Ballinger's
report:
"ln this present policy of conserv-
ing the natural resources of the pub
lie domain. while development is the
keynote, the best thought of the day
is not that development shall be by
national agencies, but that wise utili-
7ation shall be secured through pri-
vate enterprise under national super
vision and control"
The immediate provocaton for the
Ballinger-Pinchot row was based upon
a charge involving tremendously val
liable coal lands In Alaska. 1t was al.
legged that Mr.. Ballinger had shown an
undue interest in Fastening to patent
claims for coal lands in which the
Cunningham interests, which he had
formerly represented as counsel, were
concerned.
In this connection he makes an i'm.
portant recommendation with a view
ito preventing monopoly or extortion"
in the disposal of lands bearing coal.
On this point he says:
"As regards new legislation the
present coal land laws respecting the
states and territories, as well as Alas.
ka, should be supplanted by an act
fully meeting existing as we'll as fu-
ture conditions. The inducements for
much of the crime and fraud, both con-
structive and actual committed under
the present system can be prevented
by separating the right to mine from
the title to the SOIL
81 believe the most advantageous
method will be found in a measure au-
thorizing the lease or sale of the coal
deposits in the lands, subject to for
feiture for failure to exercise the
rights granted under such reasonable
regulations as may be imposed

GENERAL GRANT lNDISCREET
Thought to Have Spoken Without a
KNOWLEDGE of the Facts.

Chicago, Nov. 30.-Military and po-
litical circles are discussing a report
from Washington that Major General
Frederick Dent Grant may be re-
buked by the state department for
utterances In connection with the at.
titude of the United States toward
Nicaragua. 1t is said the commander
OF the Department Of the Lakes may
expect an official communication from
the capital this week.
General Grant admits the authen.
ITCHY OF the newspaper interview in
which he expressed the conviction
that should 1t be shown that Leroy
Cannon and Leonard Groce were al.
lied with the revolutionists seeking to
overthrow the Zelaya government the
United States will have no valid claim
for indemnity. He denied, however
that his expression was an official one
saying that it was only his own per.
sonal opinion and was given for what
it might be worth.
1t is said the authorities at Wash
ington feel that General Grant has
been indiscreet and assert that in the
present instance he spoke without
knowledge of the facts.
When his attention was called to
the Washington dispatches General
Grant was disposed to treat the mat
ter lightly. He said that he was not
at all concerned and had no fear of an
official "call down"
