day he took his sea in the upper house.
OF course, the people get no better government than they deserve, ana
Nixon doubtless believes in this axiom. His contempt for the people of Ne
Ivada dates from the time when, freshly retired from the position of South

In running for the senate, he succeeded to the seat of another outh

years of his life bowling for the nus of silver and declaring that the re-

when by trading he might have secured SOM recognition, however slight, for
the white metal, he gave his v6e for the Dingey bill withou demanding
ANYTHING in return fol silver, OF for anything else in which his constituent

over the shaft on the company's prop
erty, which has been developed to con-
siderable depth by the aid of a wind

G. T. Smith states that aggressive work
will be carried on there from now on.
The shaft is already below the lOO-foot
point, where drifts have been extended
along the vein, showing good bodies OF
ore. With the hosting equipment in
operation the shaft will be pushed down
to the 20O-foot level and drifts started
at that point. All the work on the
property so far has been done mostly
on the ledge and the indications for
opening up a permanent min are very

The Thanksgiving ONE to the front
this week with another rich strike,
says the Manhattan Mail. This time 1t
occurs in the west drift at The 40
level, and is in the shape of a 4-foos
ledge, which gives up remarkably high
average assays. Two assays made from
samples taken across it's width, give
average values of $l64 and $l51.6o per
ton. The former was secured by N. X.
franklin, superintendent of the mine,
and the latter by w. H. Mott, former
superintendent. The ore body is a

SINKING Two WELLS
near BLACK ROCK

WINNBMUCCA, May Sit was ex-
pected that by today the drillers of
the C. o. d. well at Sulphur would
reach the 420-foot level and penetrate
the paraffin peat strata encountered in
the other well. However, the cold rains
of the past week no doubt nave delayed
the work. No report has reached this
Office since Thursday morning. 1t now
appears probable that the other COM
panies are awaiting the results of the
c. o. d. well to determine just when
they will commence drilling. A Reno
company has considerable land in the
Black Rock district, also in the vicin-
ity of Antelope Siding, IA miles east
Of Sulphur. They may start their first
well in the Antelope territory. Should
they do SO and develop oil it would
prove the Humboldt oil fields to be very
extensive. Also if paraffin oil is struck
in the Antelope field 1t would show that
the entire area is p~araffin and would
settle many doubts as to methods of
procedure on the part of oil men for
exploitation.
There is quite a valuable and extern
sive deposit of soda and borax ON the
flats two miles east of Sulphur, which
probably contain nitre. At any rate,
this deposit of alkali could be turned
to a valuable use in the manufacture of
soap in case oil in paying quantities is
developed in the vicinity. Petroleum
laundry soaps are now the best on the
market. Here the raw materials are
right at hand, and the making of a
profitable industry employing scores
of men and women only requires intel
ligent investigation and the employ
ment of capital.
The waste of sulphur refneries can
be used in the manufacture of a SUI
perior water and sewer pipe, samples
of which the writer has seen in Los
Angeles, where the inventor lives.
The material is amalgamated by heat
and east in molds, any shape. When
completed it resembles rubber. 1t is
impervious to acids, electrolysis or dis
Indignation by time. Beautiful build
ing block may also be cast from the
same material. The finished product
could be sold cheap when made of ma
t~erials costing so little to lay down in
the factory.

QUEEN WONDER Opens
SHOOT OF RICH ORE

Probably the most jubilant man in
Nevada this week is the local manager
OF the Pueen Wonder property, says the
wonder News. For some time a crew
Oh men has been employed a. this mine,
sinking and timb-rIng a shaft. Be-
tween the surface and the 10O-foot level
TWO lodges of quartz, running parallel,
and with about the same dip, were cut,
and 1t was decided to stop sinking at
the 100 level and crosscut these two
veins. Last Monday, when the day
shift began hosting the rock broken
down by the night force, it was found
to be composed of splendid looking
white quartz, containing much sulphide
of silver. 1t was found that the body
of this ore is three feet in width, and
in place, on the hanging wall of the
second or lower vein. A drift to the
east has been run for about twelve feet,
and it is still in the ore. The drifting
on the ore body will be continued to the
west, and the prosecuting to the bang
ing wall of the parallel ledge resumed
Immediately. 1t is confidently expected
that when this point is reached an ore
body fully as wide and even richer than
the one already cut will be found. II
was the big values found in this ledge
at the surface which determined the
of the shaft.

The manner of nominating and
electing our congressman seems to
be a matter for the courts to de-
eide. The last legislature divided
the state into two congressional
districts. A petition has been filed
to referend this law, and if this Pc
tition is sustained the new law will
not go into effect until after the
next congressional election,-if at
all. An action is to be brought to
test ths right to referend the law,
and the decision on this act will
determine the method of choosing
our next congressman. There ls a
little of the humorous feature in
this action. A few years ago when
the stalwarts refused to recognize
a referendum petition the progress
sives charged them with disloyalty
and made it one Of their chief is-
sues in the following campaign.
Now it is the progressives who are
trying to defeat the operation OF
the referendum law. The other OK
is being gored.
