ms a neat compliment paid by the business men of San
Eranc;sco who attended the Mining Congress to Governor
Josepb Hutchinson of this city, and the happiest point about
the commitment is that it was well deserved. Goldheld has never had a
800. ,busiast; optimistic and persistent champion than Joseph
u.ah;nso, He if was who inaugurated and successfully fought out
the battleo the floor of the Mining Congress at Pittsburg a year ago
for a visit to Goldfeld of the Mining Congress, and 1T was In large
part his indefatigable efforts that made Goioheios a IN III '"-
ing Congress a success.
The camp needs more men who will follow the precedent set by
Mr. Hutchinson. and work for Nevada and Goldfeld first, last and Ill
the time It needs more men who will foster and perpetuate that Gold
field shirt. the spirit that remains loyal to town and state, that always
sees the silver lining of the cloud, that overcomes dificulhes-the
shirt that makes for team work in the upbulding of a community.
Joe is a good booster. More power to you, Joe.

NEW LEASE Is STARTED

A lease has been secured on the south

level they will drive a crosscut to pieA

to strike through this block of grounu'

Work has been in progress on the prop
erty for a year, and consists of a 800
foot shaft, some 200 feet of lateral work,
and considerable surface work. Since
the rich strike was made the gentlemen
in charge of the company affairs are
debating over future development
work. The hauling and transportation
charges are prohibitive on anything ex-
cept very high grade ore, and it is
possible that a small mill on the prop
erty will be the outcome.
The formation is in the nature of an
intrusion of dacite in the characters
tic porphyry formation in that part of
the jamestown district, and as yet the
ore shoots themselves are lacking Of
well defined walls, the enrichments APP
pearing at somewhat irregular inter
walls through the dacite. For this reason
sinking will be continued and ore block
ed out by means of lateral work, in an
effort to gain a better idea of the ex-
act characteristics and magnitude of
the ore bodies. The ore bodies as
opened up are most attractive, how
ever, and bear earmarks of making a
rich property with future development.

Come to Life

~ OODWINS WEEKLY kicks a bale of hay out of Salt Lake for
not sending more than seven delegates to the American Mining
- Congress at Goldfeld. 1t says that the meagre representation
of that Mormon metropolis at the Goldfeld meeting was little less
than a disgrace, and that the falldown on the promise to send a spe-
cml train and brass band was as ludicrous as it was humiiating.
Goodwin s Weekly is correct. And if those things can be said
of Salt LAX by its home papers, what cannot be said of Reno, a town
in the same state with Goldfeld-the commercial center and potential
metropolis Of Nevada?
There IS no use talking, Reno will have to come to life, have to
wake up if she means TO get on the map. The law prevents the
Oslerization oil fossils, but does not prevent our live men-if we have
in and making some sort of respectable showing for the
town ON such occasions.
Reno b ,siness men blame other Nevada towns for ignoring them
in the placi 6 of orders for merchandise. Are they quite certain that
the outside eople are to bame?-Reno ReveiIe.

during the week, and this gives added
strength to the report.
From an unofficial source it was
learned yesterday that orders have
been issued for resuming of operations
in the Valcalda and that men had al
ready been sent to the property.
In all probability this is the cause
Tor the advancement of the stock, for
attorneys in this city who are engaged
in the law suit of the Pittsburg Silver
Peak state that the ease will not be
dropped and will be carried to the
courts for settlement.

The Exhibit Is Ours

~ OLDFIELD must have a permanent mining exhibit. The chief
mining camp of the state must be made the center of mining
- interest in all respects.
1t is III good fortune to have presented to us the best mineral
collection representative of all the camps of the state, in all towns
and camps of Nevada, and all we have to do is to provide a place for
the exhibit and install it.
From the movement that was given inception last night, Goldheld
will have this exhibit it will be properly housed and installed and Will
be in every way a credit to the greatest gold camp in the world.

SILVER PEAK COMPANY
BUYS vALCALDA GROUP

TONOPAH, Oct. l5.-Considerable
discussion has been aroused by the ad-
vance of Pittsburg Silver Peak during
the last week, and as a result; many
rumors are afloat.
Yesterday information reached this
city to the effect that the Silver Peak
crowd had purchased the valcalda prop
which comprises IL full claims and
adjoins the rittsburg ground. 1t wal
further stated that w. r. O'Meara and

Good Luck to the Herald

|r%HE RHYOLITE HERALD, owned by Earl r. Clemens. has TAX
en- over the Bullfrog Miner from Frank p. Mannix, and the lat.
ter paper has been merged into The Herald.
The Miner was a good high class mining paper. 1t was the origl-
nal Bulfrog publication and occupied much the same relation to thai
camp as the Goldfeld Weekly News to Goldfed. Later, the town of
Rhyolte superseded Bullfrog and the Miner moved up to the new
town and came to be a direct competitor of the Rhyolte Herald. The
two papers prospered and lived amcably side by side, but finally Mr..
Mannixs health began to give way and he was compelled to spend
most of his time out of camp. Mr.. Mannix was later appointed treas
urer of Nye county, which made it impossible to give any personal at
tention whatever to his paper; he therefore embraced the opportunity
to sell to Mr.. Clemens, and a consolidation resulted. The Herald has
always been a good lively highclass paper, and with the strength
brought to it by The Miner, it should prosper and continue its career
as a credit both to its publisher and to the Bullfrog district.

1t is genuine pleasure to hear that Manhattan is on the upward
trend, and that despite those ~hardships that have twice withdrawn
capital from the camp, its mining men are going to work out their own
salvation, unaSistcd. Manhattan should make a good, rich mining
camp, and here's to its successful future.

A GREAT BEAT WITH THE
HELP OF WIRELESS.

Washington did not writbe under IFS
isolation yesterday. 1t was the other
cities that did the writhinc. The at
tention Of all the world was conferred
Lpon the American Capital. and not 2
single telegraph wire was working for
more than moment at . time or send
ing any news TO the outside world save
the briclest or flashes" Even mes
senger service to the nearest cities was
checked By the delay and choking of all
trains
In thlz edgency, wireless telegraphv
had an opening hardly less spectacular
than that provided by the sinking Re
public. Whatever was told the other
great cities, including Baltimore and
Philadelphia, or the installation of the
new American President. had 10 be told
by its help. The Washington Times
a. one OF the links in the NIunsey
chain. has particular satisfaction in
knowing this morning that wireless
served two OF the other links of that
Chain-the News Of Baltimore and the
Evening Times Of Philadclphia-witb
the only detailed information on the in.
auguratiou which went out from the
Capital.
Soon As II was known that the wires
were down. the Mmscy management
took over the service Of tine United
Wireless Company and began to send
90 Baltimore. All morning long that
service was exclusively occupied in
keeping The Times and the Baltimore
News IN touch, save Tor two or three
bulletins allowed the news associations.
Occasional queries and replies made it
unquestlonable that this miracle was
actually being performed and that
where tangible. stubborn wires had
failed the blizzard air, 50 10 speak. was
succeeding admirably.
But this meant little comfort for the
Evening Times, of Philadelphia. From
Baltlmore came the report that there

AN EVIL INHERITANCE *
DOUBLE CROSSED.

II" tioH u Ut NIum. the
negro collector Of the port of Charles

about as much bad blood a. anv other
during the Roo, evelt Administration and
which threatened to remain to vex Mr.
TAFT, !; could not but have been en-
barrassing 10 the incoming President
10 deal with the Crum case.
Mr. Taft has made it quite plain that
ne does not intend to appoint to public
office men VINO are Objectionable In
the people with whom they would he
brought in contact. This rule would
have barred the rcappointment OF
Crum, because Charleston has made If
very evident that it does not want ne

hand. ne would not have found it pleas

proved ~ The stand taken bv Mr.
Roosevelt. The resignation of Collec-
tor Crum, who seems to have the good
taste NOT TO wish 10 see Mr.. Taft
placed IN position OF this kind, has set
tied the matter in satisfactory way.
The Cram appointment has not been
without Is lesson. II has shown that
giving the negro a Federal Office In the
South does not help him. Mr.. Roose-
Welt thought he was doing the race a
real service when he named Cr,lm 10 no
collector Of the port OF Charleston. and
the stronger no protest grew the
stronger grew his determination to
force IN. man on the citv. Time has
shown that ne was mistaken. Tt Ma.

he Pennsylvania railroads annual
report shows how severe was the bust

the best managed railroad properties

that thu last year was one of the worst
through which the transportation and
