wINNEMUCCA CAMPS LIVELY.
Region in a Radius of Fifty Miles Has
Many Fine ShOwings.

Within sight of Winnemucca, at
the northeastern base of the Hum
boldt range, are a number of mines
and prospects of great merit that
are but little known to the general
public, says the Star. Higher up in
the range is the famous old Dun
known as Chafey. A few
miles further to the southwest is the
Nevada Metal & Exploration COM
pany, with a record of 1928 shipping
ore. Beyond this are the recently
discovered rich camps of Yellow
stone and Buffalo, while commencing
at Rose Creek, and skirting the west
side of the range are placers from
which more than eleven millions
have been recovered within the past
four years. Nevada can offer no dis
trict of it's area where gold and sill
yer can be found so thoroughly dis
tributed and where every deep hole
proves that the values go down.
1t is too near to town, railroads,
water and all that go to make min
ing pleasant and economical to lure
the masses, who to thing great
values lie only in the most inacces-
sible places. However, there are
some right thinking people who
know good things when they see
them. Among them are the Nevada
Congo company, which is now act
lively at work on it's properties at
Rose Creek. d. A. Smith, manager,
with a force of men, is now opening
up the property in earnest and pro-
poses to stay by the work. Several
otner properties will be opened un
this fall in the same vicinity %
Deiss, Klucny, Hauptt, Sigmund and.
others. The area within fifty miles
of Winnemucca was never before so
active as at present or promised such
brilliant results.

NEW SELLING AGENCY.

Boston rumor, not yet confirmed,
is that a new metal selling agency,
which will be International in char
acter and in which Cole-Ryan-Amal-
gamated interests will have the DOM
mating voice, is in process of FOR
nation.
The new organization, it is said,
will market the output of many of
the leading American mines and will
include certain foreign agencies,
making it possible to secure a more
effective control of the copper sell
ing business than is now had by the
United Metals Selling company.
For some weeks it has puzzled the
trade to know why the United Met
ais Selling company has sc rigidly
adhered to it's 10 LAC quotation for
electrolyc while it allowed the Gug-
genheims to fill up their books with
December contracts at 13c per pound
and less. In explanation it is argued
that the United Metals Selling COM
pany, being confident that the low
stocks in the hands of manufactur-
ers would soon force them into the
market for large purchases, was per-
fectly willing that the Guggenheims
should have a monopoly of the ''cut
rate business, and after they had
booked their capacity up to the first
of January, the Metals Selling COM
pany would be then in position to
step in and book it's contracts at an
advancing scale of prices.

METAL AND

The copper metal market has
shown no distinct change. Lake is
quoted at 13A cents and ~electrolytic
at 10 cents. Both prices are being
shaded in the open market, how
ever. According to men in a posi-
ton to keep close track of the move
ment of the metal, the deliveries to
home consumers and for export are
somewhat larger than last month;
but it is doubtful if the surplus, TAX
ing that here and abroad, will be re-
duced. Metal consumption is un-
doubtedly growing, but the gains
have not yet been sufficient to make
inroads on the surplus. 1t seems to
be acknowledged mat the consumers
are carrying little or nc metal, ana
as the treasurer of one of the Lake
companies said recently, the policy
followed by the producers in making
monthly statements of the surplus On
hand, benefits the because
with a knowledge of the position or
the sellers, he can regulate his pur-
chases to the disadvantage of the
latter.
1t is believed that negotiations now
going on may remedy the situation
some, and it is felt that we shall
soon have a better metal market. A

CITY OF FURNISHED COPPER.

The Egyptian Gazette Of Cairo,
announce recently that an important
expedition was to start into the Sa-
hara in search of the "City of Burn
ished Copper" the remains of which
are said to exist there, but which has
been lost to human sight for many
centuries. The expedition will also
visit the Oasis of silva, where the
headquarters, and will also explore
Jarabub, the Mecca of the Senussi,
into which as yet no European has
penetrated.
Interest has been revived in this
ancient city by the recital of some
Arabs, who not long ago returned
from those parts. 1t was by accident
that they came upon it. They were
endeavoring to smuggle contraband
across from Tripoli last winter, but
were surrounded by the coast guards
Some of the band got away and
rode steadily southwark for three
days. They wandered for a long
time in the hope of getting IN the
beten track again, for their pro-
visions mad come to an end. They
had given up all hope, when sudden
ly they saw on the horizon a glitter
ing masselike a large city, which at
first appeared to them to be but the
delusive effect of a mirage. On
closer acquaintance it turned out to
be a real deserted city, built of
FURNISHED copper. They entered it,
but the only sign of life were some
sand grouse, which they promptly
shot.
They explored the entire place and
then replenishing their water at one
of the excellent wells in the city,
they set out on the beaten track
again, and returned to Cairo.
They naturally told their exper-
fence on arrival and their tale ac-
quired many fantastic features in the
telling for there is no more imagina-
tive being than the Arab. Their
story naturally got to the ears OF the
antiquity authorities, who after maxi
ing due allowances, came to the de-
cided conclusion that the city seen
by these Arabs is identical with the
lost "City of Copper" the legends of
which appear in very ancient manu-
scripts.
Proof that the Arabs are not in
venting the whole story was offered
by some relics of copper which they
brought back, and which are of very
fine workmanship and unique design.
Apparently the city is in an excellent
state of preservation, due, no doubt
to the dry Sahara air.
The Egyptian government anti
quities department is lending assis-
lance to the expedition, which is
privately financed, and which will be
under the leadership of Dow Gown

Rumors circulated the past few
months in regard to a large copper
consolidation are now taking more
definite form and the Boston Finan-
cial News is in a position to state
on the authority of a leading interest
of the Amalgamated Copper company
that negotiations are now under way
for the formation of a copper COM
pany of the magnitude and along
the lines of the Amalgamated Copper
company.
The plans of the consolidation are
being worked out by the largest cop

pose of treating their ores at home.
Nevada is essentially a mining
state, and any condition that affects
the mines affects every other ndus-
try in the state in regular proportion
Governor Dickerson in his mess
age to the last legislature of Nevada,

in it's every phase. l do not agree
with him however in the broad state
ment that Nevada is dependant on

Much Sought Ledge Be-
Iieved to Have Been LO-
cated---Or Runs High

Bald Mountain, as indicated by
transfers of mining claims and 9TH
er documents filed from that locality
during the week is experiencing e
excitement. The following from the
Wonder News gives insight to the
late movement:
Gold re, which it is said, assays
from $500 to $1,000 a ton, has been
opened in the Bald Mountain dis
trict, White Pine county, threatening
a rush of p~rospectors to the region.
The find was made when Jacob
Mahir vas doing assessment work
on a claim that he had owned for
several years.
Last spring Lee Johnson found
near the claim float which, 1t was
said, assayed $4,000 a ton in gold
and 1000 ounce in silver, but ex-
tended prospecting failed to disclose
the ledge from which it came. The
float was white quartz, and the ledge
struck by Mahir is pronounced iden-
tically the same material.
The find was entirely unexpected.
Mahir had no idea he was near a
bonanza when he looked for an easy
place to do the annual assessment
work and picked out a spot on the
hillside that looked as though it
would be right. He drove a tunnel
in 10 feet and was getting ahead
fast when the roof caved in. He
cleaned the drift out and went on
working and came to solid formation
in about 10 feet more, where he
found granite with the quartz ledge
that promises to make him a for
tune.
The point where he struck it is
about fifteen feet from the surface
and tends to prove the contention or
those familiar with the district hat
rich mines now covered with wash
would some day be discovered there
All down the gulch below the ledge
placer gold can be found, and now
that such high values are found in
the ore it is probable more dfligent
prospecting will uncovr good dig
gings.-Wonder News.

FOR
A REVISION OF
BULLION Law

At the next session of the legisla-
ture there promises to come up leg
islation looking to the revision or
the bullion tax law of the state,
such legislation was somthered dur
ing the last legislature. In severai
sections the mining men are already
discussing the matter and as a means
of forming a basis for a general dis
c~ussion, H. c. Jones, a mining man
of Tonopah, has submitted sugges-
lions for a bill. Extracts from his
paper covering the principal points,
follow:
"A system of taxation which is
sufficiently comprehensive to meet
the requirements of the state and at
the same time be just and equitable,
is amatter of growth and evolution.
Theories may take their place as
building material now and then, SOL
idifying into what is staunchest and
best, but should not be given power
Tor good or ill until they have gone
through the %perfecting influence of
the crucible of experience.
Another element which must be
revkoned with in the consideration
of a taxing system is that of public
sentiment. Public sentiment is usu-
ally the equivalent of an official COM
mand, and no great reform can be
accomplished except by educating the
people in respect to existing evils,
and obtaining their approval of pro-
posed notifications.
I'm presenting this paper l
am by no NEAR unmindful of the
fact that the subject under discus
sion is not a new one, and that it is
possible that all that is worth say
ing has already been said, it how
ever, is automatic that as long as a
wrong has not been righted or a mis-
take corrected, it is the duty of every
man to raise his voice in no uncer-
tain terms in behalf of what he him
self believes to be right
"In approaching this subject, u
first duty is to consider the various
laws enacted by our sister mining
states relating to the bullion tax
question, and if w find that expert
ence has taught them what Is wisest
and best, we should allow ourselves
to be benefited by it. If we find that
by a thorough consideration of this
matter they have enacted laws which
are manifestly sound and just, it is
our duty to weigh well the result OF
their experience so that we may be
able to s%egregate the good from the
bad.
Under the law of Ontario, every
mine whose annual profits are more
than $4,000 shall pay on the excess
over this amount an annual tax of
3 per cent. From the gross receipts
are deducted the cost of all transpor-
~tation, expenses of working the mine,
including wages construction of mills
reduction works, smelters, explosives
insurance, depreciation or year anG
tear of property, cost of work and
to the development and maintance
of the property.
"If you will take into considera-
ton. the wide scope covered by the
Ontario law and the broad incentive
to mining Investments it offers, l be-
lieve you will readily conclude that
it is a wise and just measure.
You will observe that the Nevada
law does not exempt a single item OF
expense to encourage the mine own
ers of this state to build mills, smell
ters and reduction works for the pur-
