NEW THEORY ABOUT
THE MASON DEAL
LOca! Thinkers Believe That
Working Agreement, Not a
Merger, Is Plan.
JOINT MILL. POSSIBLE.
ONE SIDE TO THEORY
Other Side Is That BluestOne
Mill Product Goes to
MasOn's Smelter.

In the deep silence which has sur
rounded tho deal in the Mason mining
district of Nevada. involving the Ma
son Valley and Blucstonc companies,
western stockholders have been indulg-
ing in considerable speculation, Sen
timcnt at first took nothing into con-
sidcration but merger deal, and This
limo of thought having been exhausted,
new theory has been advanced which,
while logical, is based Oh no stronger
grounds than the first. 4 prominent
stakeholder said Saturday;
81 do not claim to know any moro
about the deal, whatever it is, than you
DO, but | hardly believe that CON
solldatlon or merger is on foot, My
idea is that there are other things
pending. entirely different from any
thing so far put forward TO explain the
situation.
Iu the first place, d. C. Jacliling.
as Is well known, is recognized as an
authority on ore concentration, and
having once been close to the DclaMar
interests, It is reasonable that he still
retains this friendship, and undoubted

Bluestonc company is a DelaMar prop
osition. 1t, is likewise known that
that this company has been experiment.
ing with the clectrolitic concentrator.
In small mill this process OF ore
separation has been demonstrated Il
success, the garnctized ores permitting
no other method apparently for the
purpose.

to be mainly a concentrating PROPOSE
tion. and nothing more logical is pos
slble than expert advice was desired rs
TO the possibility of utilizing this eIec-
trolytlc process on a large scale. The
Mason Valley property contains some
OF tins garnet ore, which will in all
demand concentration, al
though the bulk of the orc is Il strai chit

cit is well known also that the Ma
son Valley company intends to install its
own smclter. What is TO prevent this
company from so doing, and for an
agreement to be entered into between
the two organizations by which the
Bluestone concentrates will be treated
in the Mason Valley smelter?

more reasonable than a consolidation

IMPORTANT RULING ON
MINING LAW GIVEN

The register and receiver of the
United States land office here received
from the general land office. depart
ment Of the interior, at Washington, a
ruling in the matter Of the description
Of lode or vein which must accompany
applications for patents in mining
lands, which simplifies the description
which has heretofore been required of
the lode or vein in these applications.
The ruling, which bears the date Of
June II, 1909, and which is signed by
Fred bennett. commissioner Of the gen
eral land office, and is approved by
r, A. Ballinger, secretary, is as fol
lows;
paragraph II of the mining rcgula-
tions, approved March %, 1909, which
provides as follows:
" fThe vein or lode must be fully
described, the description to include a
statement to the kind and character
OF mineral, the extent thereof, whether
ore has been extracted and of what
amount and value, and such other facts
as will support the applicants Is alIega-
bile mineral deposit
cit seems that the expression, 'the
extent thereof is being construed as
meaning that the applicant must af-
firmativcly show by proof of explora
tion that the vein exists in fact
throughout the whole length Of the
claim.
"This construction Of the paragraph
is erroneous. BY tho words quoted it
was intended to require the claimant
to show tho existence Of vein in snch
workings as he relied on to establish a
discovery. BY the extent Of the vein
was meant its size and quality as dis
closed That being done, the presump-
tion exists that the vein extends on
its strike throughout tho whole length
OF the claim as located.
'fThc sole purpose of that part OF
paragraph II quoted was TO enable the
land department. TO know, SO far as ap-
picant can reasonably show, the defin-
lie facts upon which the right TO
rhc mineral is predicated. so as to dc
tcrminc whether n valuable mineral de-
posit exists in the land claimed

SPLENDID VIEWS OF

Harry Simpler, the photographer, has

GREEKS CLAIM THAT

Some Greek laborers returning from

the forcmen of the works require ap

Manager Lakeman of tho smelling
plant was in Salt Lake City Saturday
and when asked by Tho Tribune in
regard 10 these statements, he denied
that there was truth in them.
"We have heard such things on in
Vulnerable occasions,' he said "and
doubtless we viii hear them again. On
several occasions | have had the grand
Jury OF White Pine county call men
who made such statements before it for

stopped. But on no occasion has 4

Farmer DispIaces Miner.

The state fair of 1909 ought to con-
vince Pueblo people, If they are not al
ready convinced Of 1t, that Colorado's 8
greatest industry is the cultivation of
irrigated lands.
Colorado will always be great min
ing state, and the Chieftain firmly be-
lieves that the period Of its great min
eral production lies far in the future.
Colorado's mines are not exhausted, and
the limits Of productiyeness and Of va
riety cannot yet be drawn. But min
ing Is not, and 1t never will be again,
Colorado's principal industry.
Manufacturing Is important to the
state. The richness Of Colorado's coal
deposits and the tremendous power of
its waterfalls, together with the wealth
and variety Of its raw materials, make
it certain that Colorado is going to be
one Of the Worlds greatest centres of
manufacturing.
But manufacturing is not Colorado's
greatest industry, and 1t Is not the in
dustry that is the most important fac
tor in Pueblo's growth, even though
this city's future as a. great manufac-
turing centre Is plainly marked.
The development Of Colorado agri-
culture-the phenomenal success re-
sulting from the intensive cultivation
of small farms under irrigation-is the
most important incident Of Colorado's
progress. 1t is the surest evidence of
this city's growth and prosperity

A Yankee Consolation.-The Vermont
farm had been worn out, so the New
Englander and his wife took up a
homestead in Oklahoma. The soil
was kindly, and their native THRIFT
was great, so they prospered. At last
however, age came heavily upon the

not long, she called her husband to
her side.

Absolutely Risht.-A pretty young

before the close Of the term. She had

ing on a bright little fellow at the rear
of the room, she said to him: Johnnie,

you have?"

thought that she would try again
"You can't have understood me. john

question. II I gave you cents
and your father gave you three, how
much would you have?'

fear overtaken and smothered in the
volume of retributive pursuit. while the
fringes Of the flying troop bark in sym
pathy. The noise is terrific, and when
it is heard on the borders of a waking
state the effect may well be heightened
by the tension Of still vivid dream.
The outburst takes long to die away,
and the falling climax is as often as
not worked up afresh just as the iso-
lated challenges seemed to be the dig
nified prelude to peace.
There is all the interests Of variety
about this kind of noise. No two nights
are the same. A howl may be answer
ed on the instant by bark or two and
no more, or volley Of answering barks
Is kept up at pitch Of great ferocity.
The grand pele-mele too, varies infinite
ly in quality and significance or 1t may
come with great effect from the other
end of the village-a pleasant deviation
from the beneath the window theme.
There Is all the interest Of recognizing
the tone or calibre Of the more sonor-
GUS and telling throats and Of fitting to
them the characteristics they seem to
suggest. Unfortunately after a week
or two one sleeps through even the
grandest renderings Of these chaotic
ari varied themes.
But to pass on-the next moment has
been referred to- 1t Is the cowherd
jodelling and whooping in the regions
Of dawn. One sleeps and wakes again
to hear him still melting the beasts to
pasture One wonders why he does not
make a house collection. But after all
there is plenty Of time, and he prefers
to stand and call. At 6 the streets are
musical with the itinerant Greek who
sells vegetables, stringing their names
together in a strong voiced monotony-
a kind Of Gregorian chant which his
donkey receives with all his ears and
has been known to accompany with a
bray.-Pall Mall Gazette.

IN A TURKISH VILLAGE.
Some Noises That Are Distracting to
STRANGERS,

Noises by night in Turkish village
have a delicious prelude, wild climax
and a denouement which Is rousing in
spite of it's very rural note. This last
Is the collecting of the village cows by
the village cowherd, who drives them
to pasture at about a. m. This he
does on behalf Of all those who own
COWS, and they pay him a small stipend
for so doing. He calls to the cows and
they come from their various yards and
byres, released perhaps by their own
ers, who may well have been awakened
by his cry. For he calls very loud, as
BELTS a public officer, and as the ex-
tent of the village would also suggest.
The trysting place is beneath my
window. "Haidel" Come along! or
hurry up! Upon the second syllable he
dwells in a long whoop rather like the
falling whistle at which trek oxen in
South Africa shuttle to a halt
"Haide-e-e," and the cows move along
with their imperturbable rhythm, some
mooing as they go. Some sit down
when they reach the gathering place
made up-they know by experience
that the process is a long one. AS time
passes the cries become louder and in
terspersed with remarks, 1--WE are 60
ing! Haideee!" But to begin at the
beginning, Night has scarcely closed
down upon the dusk before the air
seems to be one murmur Of sheep bells
and goat bells far and near. Passing
close, the bells gulp and bubble, and
the sound Of the small hoofs in the
dust is like the murmur Of steady rain.
This Is not q chance simile, for the
sound has the quality of inevitable
suggestion, and according to the num-
Ler Of the flock it varies from light
hover to heavy rain, from heavy rain
to a downpour. There are also the
cries of the shepherd, but it Is best
when he Is silent.
At 10 o'clock the priest walls from the
balcony which runs round the minaret
of the millage mosque. His voice Is
calm and easy and carries far. 1t Is
somewhat unearthly falsetto-a long
note hangs upon the stiffness, breaks
into a quaver and dies away. Then
there is silence, broken after a mo-
ment's suspense by the renewed invo-
cation to prayer.
In the meantime there may have been
hints of the climax-what may be call
ed the piece de resistance" of a night
Turkey A dogs bark softened by
distance is answered by another, which
perhaps bursts sudden and savage from
beneath your very window. They will
answer each other with three barks
each until one of them sinks to two,
whereupon the other answers with a
single bark, and perhaps silence en-
sues: or at some alarm, real or imag-
ined, every dog within hearing barks
too. In the chorus may be heard ev-
cry kind Of barking, baying and howl
ing. 1t dies away; but at some point
between night and morning you are
almost sure to hear these fragmentary
forerunnerS of commotion united in a
very chaos of uproar in the street.
Racing feet make a curious undercur-
rent Of sound, with theme of yelping

Another Fallaey.-The generally ac-
cepted belief that a person Is useful
in proportion as he is busy Is contro-
verted by a writer who says: II have
a dog that is loaded with fieas. In
the summer time, when the fleas are
plenty, that is the busiest dog l ever
saw; when he isn't biting at the heas
he's swapping at the flies. He never
has a minute to spare, but when ne
is the busiest he Is the least account
for practical purposes. And there Is
a young fellow in my neighoorhood
who has a cheap watch and he
smokes cigarettes. When he isn't
winding his watch he is lighting ci-
garette. He is a mighty busy young
man, but he isn't worth two hoops In
a water barrel."-Rule (Tex.) Re
