Hon. Harvey Helm pretty hot on the
proposition of government building in

Mr.. MANN. Of Illinois. has introduced
a bill prescribing drastic penalties for
the white slave traffic. Ii makes II a
crime for any person to aid. entice OF
force any female to 20 from one State
to another for mineral purposes, with
a fine Of 5000 and imprisonment for
FIVE years. II the girl be under IL the
penalty is 10 years and $4,000 fine.
Mr.. Mann does not think that even this
severe punishment will deter all the
brutes engaged in the business, but
even If it results in the reduction OF
immortality it will be Of great service.
The horrors Of the traffic are fearful to
contemplate and hanging is too good
for those found engaging in it. We
hope Mr.. Mann's bill will become law.

MOUNT GRANT
SHIPS BULLION
COTTONWOOD DISTRICT MAKES
FIRST CLEAN UP
EGG SHAPED LUMPS OF GOLD
AGGREGATE $1,000
Run at Mill of Gold Note Mine Under
Difficulties Plates Fifty Doll
lars, a TWo-thirds
Saving
rsrecIal to The IIerald ]

YERINGTON, New, Dec. 29.-The
first gold bullion to come out OF the
Cottonwood section of the Mount
Grant district for many years arrived
Yesterday from the Gold Note mine of
that district. General Manager A. j.
Vance and Stanford Beeman brought
i'm the valuable freight and deposited
it in the vaults of the Lyon County
bank of this city, where it was on eX-
hibtion until Monday A number of
mining men examined the gold and
pronounced it to be the finest grade of
gold ever produced in this part of the
country.
The bullion was in the form of two
egg-shaped Jumps valued at $1,000, and
was the cleanup from the 1S-ton mill
run of last week. The heavy return
that the plates yielded on the Gold
Note ore has surprised even the
strongest boosters of this section, as the
milling was not done under the best
conditions. Extremely cold weather,
which caused the freezing of the plates,
modern concentrating system made the
test unusually severe, but in spite of
these drawbacks the ore plated about
$50 and a saving of fully tWo-thirds of
the value was effected.
A contract has been let for 200 feet
of additional work on the ore bodies
now in sight, with a view to making
another and larger mill run in the early
spring. In addition, a modern Kincaid
mill and complete concentrating sys-
tenn will be installed below the mine
on Cottonwood creek at that time. and
a gravity tramway built from the mine
to handle the output.
The successful outcome of the Gold
Note mill run has been watched by
mining men in this valley who are in
terested in Mount Grant, and consider
able satisfaction is felt here over the
result, as 1t will tend to inspire conf
dence in the future production Of the
yellow metal from that part of Nevada.
With the mills of the Keystone,
Wheeler, Gold Note and the Bartholo-
NEW at Lappin canyon all turning out
bullion, the coming year will make that
part of Esmeralda county the leading
producer next TO Goldfield, 1t is be-
lieVed.

SYLVANITE STRIKE MAY
BE GREAT ORE SHOOT

SYLVANITE. N. NJ, Dec. 29.-The
Hardscrabble Gold Mining company
has made another strike of high-grade
ore i'm the east tunnel of the property.
1t seems certain that this is the con-
tinuation Of the great shoot showing
on the surface.
The shoot which was struck in Oc-
tober was passed through about ten
days ago. low-grade ore being encoun-
tered. This was worked in until Satur-
day, when the character of the ore
suddenly changed from low grade to
rich shipping ore. At present the whole
face of the drift is in ore of this grade,
while indications are that they are only
at the edge of a large, rich shoot. Back
from the face of the drift, twenty feet
in a crOsscut, the ore continues south
with no south wall in sight.
Albert j. Fitch and G. 4. Brown have
let a contract to A. f. Lane to sink a
two compartment shaft on the Knight
group. Work started on this contract
recently. The depth under the contract
will be seVenty-tive feet as this is as
deep as the property could be profitably
worked with Windlass. From the 10
foot level the owners propose to carry
sinking to depth with hosting ma
chinery which will be ordered shortly.

DENVER COMMITTEE
FAVORS WET TOWN
REPORT URGES RESTRICTION
FOR SALOONS
to Investigate Desirable Policy
Submits Interesting Findings
Limiting Licenses

DENVER Colo, Dec. ga commit
tee appointed by the Denver Property
league, an organization made up of
owners of business blocks in the down
town district, to recommend a policy
concerning the sale of liquor in Den
yer. last night reported in favor of a
wet town.
But this recommendation carries
with it a number of suggestions look
ing to the placing of restrictions on
the saloon.
These include the establishment of a
wet zone" which will take in only
the downtown district, eliminating the
tenderloin; limiting the number of Ii
censes issued to 200 and increasing the
fee from $500 to $500 annually; sup
preston of wine rooms and making
territory within a certain radius of
churches and school houses, even in
the "wet zone" prohibition ground.
Under the plan saloons are absolute-
ly prohibited in residence districts.
The above recommendations are
made with a view to warding off the
fight to make Denver a dry town."
which result, the committee believes,
would ruin "our reputation as a con-
vention city and as entertainers of
tourists who visit us as guests"
The matter will come up before the
whole body in a week
There is talk of submitting this plan
to the people as an amendment to the
citys charter.

FLOW OF OIL STARTS
IN ABANDONED WELL

MARICOPA, Dec. 29.--Like the min
ers of old, the Genesee Oil company has
just gone into pay tar in an abandoned
well that was located on territory
abandoned as worthless six years ago.
What is more, the old we'll is yielding
a production of fifteen barrels every
thirty minutes out of the tWenty-four
hours. To be sure, this is not a Palmer
or a Wellman or a Santa Fe, or even
an Ethel Dee, but a daily production
of fifteen barrels is not to be sneezed at,
especially when the blue-black fluid is
standing around the 81 mark
The new producer is located on a hill
in section 3, 11-24. 1t was drilled some
six years ago, but no very promising
showing was made, and being located
on what was considered barren terri
tory, it was abandoned. Last week.
however, Superintendent Dickinson of
the Adeline lease took a couple of his
best men up to the old hole, l1indled the
fires under the old boiler and began
churning away. In less than a week
he had oil bubbling over the top of the
casing, and ii has continued to come
every day since, with a promising pros
pect of getting better in the near flu
ture.

GOLD QUEEN PROVES
EXISTENCE OF GOLD

COURTLAND, Dec. 29.-Three shifts
of miners on the property of the Gold
Queen Mining company about two
miles south Of Courtland, are rapidly
demonstrating the existence of a large
body of commercially profitable gold
ore. The Importance lies not in the
remarkable richness of the ore, which,
however, has given values of thousands
to the ton for picked samples, as in the
extent of the deposit.
The incline shaft bottoms at the 100
foot level in ore identical with that
which characterized the entire work
from the grass roots.
A station has been cut at the 100-foot
level, and drifting north and east is in
progress, with ore everywhere. In fact,
a we'll known mining man made the
statement that he believed the entire
hill would some day be run through a
mill with nrofit. The ore taken out up
to the present time would probably av-
erage $50 a ton, which, considering it is
a milling proposition. and the location
being all that could be desired, should
leave a handsome profit.

COALINGA BRIEFS

COALINGA, Dec. 29.-The Valley is
pulling out its casing to put in the
perforated pipe, after which 1t will be
put on the beam.
The Marion began flowing Friday and
is now making good flow.
The Blue Moon has begun the erec-
tion of another rig.
Il. w. Preston has concluded his deal
for lot on IS, 21-25. He will organize
a company for the purpose Of sinking
a well.
Out on the Acorn, 2, 20-14, water was
struck at the 1850. 1t is an artesian flow
and yields about a thousand barrels a
day. The water is heavily mineralized
and contains sufficient gas to burn
three feet above the outflow pipe. Man
ager Arper has sent a sample to Oak
land for analysis. According to Mr..
Arper there is no doubt but it overlies
an oil strata.
