JARBIDGE DISTRICT
NOW SNOWBOUND
Pioneer Tells of Routes Reach
ing Into New Gold
Country.

In communication from Three Creeks
Idaho. u. Greenwnll, one OF the pioneer
prospcctors TO get into the new Jar
bidge district in Northern Nevada tells
Of the best routes to be followed In en-
tering this country. which is looked TO
to furnish some sensational gold discov-
cries early in the year.
Mr.. Greenwall states that there are
several ways OF getting into the JarbldGe
camp, one Of the best OF which is via
Elllo, New, II being distance of one
hundred and ten miles from this point
on the stage TO Gold Creek. and from
there thirty miles by horseback. or fif-
teen miles across country by foot to
Jarhidso. This route is especially de-
sirablc In the summer time. and by the
time traffic Is resumed In the spring II
is probable that wagon road Will have
been built all the way from Eko TO the
district,
Via Twin Falls.
Another OF the best and shorter routes
TO Jarbidge is VIA Twin Falls. Idaho
From this point the train can be taken
rs far as Bell the terminal of a sixty
mile stage route TO Three Greeks, Idaho
and from there n twcnty-mile trip on
horseback Will land one at Jarbidgc
camp.
Mr. Greenwall states that It looks as
though there would be keen rivalry be-
tween Elko and Twin Falls for the sup
ply stations for the new district. and
he states that from all appearances the
ultimate business to be derived will be
well worth the contest. Already the
claims under development are responding
In encouraging manner to the work done,
The Belmont claim. under bond to w. A,
Stevens, is developing in an especially
satisfactory manner. and number OF
the properties on Bunker Hin, ct the
forks OF the Jarbidge river and Pine
Creek, are attracting attention.

c, +. Smith. another operator In the
district. has also uncovered high grade
ore on his claims, and mining men IA
miliar with the formations and indica-
tlons believe that the "boom" days OF
Cripple Creek will he repeated in Jar
bIdgc. Salt Lake operators, IL is said,
already have their eyes on the district
and are expected TO become heavily In
terested In some of the new propositions
OF the section,
The country is practically snowbound
at this time OF the year. however, and
It Is stated that IL Is unadvsable TO at
tempt TO get into the district during the
winter. On account OF the snow II would
not be possible to get a satisfactory
idea OF the formation and characteriza-
tion OF the country. and the trip would
be so hard and dangerous that the trav-
eler would not be repaid for his efforts.

GOVERNMENT REPORT
ON QUICKSILVER
Industry Still Unsatisfactory,
Though Some Improvement
is Shown.

The geological surveys report on the
production OF quicksilver In the United
States In 1908, prepared by II. d. Nc
Caskcy. shows nm unsatisfactory state OF
the quicksilver industry during the year
but an improvement In some respects
over the conditions In 1907. Prices were
higher. but the value Of the total product
was lower. tho values being sS2S,93l In
1907 and SS2sli6 in 1908. The imports
OF quicksilver were valued at $671o In
1907 and sS2l6 In 1908.
California Is the principal producing
state. the value of It's product In 1905
amounting TO S6Sf,7lG. as against $6G2, !.
5ii in 1907. Texas Is the next largest
producing state. The United States was
In 1908 the third largest producer OF
quicksilver among the countries OF tho
world. it's output being exceeded by Spain
and, to smaller degree, by Italy.
Mr.. McCaskcy's report contains tables
showing tho worlds production OF quick
silver, the exports and imports, the range
of prices and also description Of the
deposits OF quicksilver ore (cinnabaD at
the New Idrla mines, In san Benito
county, Cal, and Of the methods OF min
