RENO, March 23.-Ten miles square
of as good land as may be found any
where in the state was thrown open for
settlement Monday morning and the
~southbound Virginia and Truckee trains
from Monday until today have carried
many intending settlers, while Others
are coming in from Wabuska.
This land was withdrawn from entry
years ago when the government planned
IN irrigation system, but owing to diff
ficulty with T. B. Hickey, who was i'm
pounding the water of the Walker river
in Alkali lake, the reclamation project
proved a failure.
Now the land has been thrown open
and is available either by homesteading
or under the provisions of the desert
act. while there is considerable school
land in the vicinity that may be pur-
chased.
This land is situated on either side
of the Walker river and reaches from
one line of foothills to the other in the
lower end of Smith valley.

The extension of the Copper Belt rail-
road to Morningstar will tap this rich
region and there is a strong possibility
that the Virginia and Truckee railroad
will also reach out to this territory, as
it has already surveyed a southern ex-
tension. In either case Reno will be
the supply point for the district, which
is situated slightly further from Reno
than the Carson ruckee project.
For a time the water question Will
be troublesome, but Simpson brothers,
owners of the heaviest water rights on
the river, nave arranged to enlarge their
bitches and dispose of flood waters to
the settlers. This, on account of the
carliness of the season and the ateness
of the food waters from the high water
shed, will enable the harvesting of at
least two crops of alfalfa.
Artesian water is being developed.

of which was obtained at a depth OF

Last Tuesday J. s. Cain, banker, mine
owner and possessor of many interests
in this section, returned from an extend
ed visit to San Francisco, where he
succeeded in enlisting capital to aid IN
the opening up of the resources OF this
and adjacent territory, says the Bodie

Messrs. Cain, McCone and Gorham
sold to w. H. Metson, representing a
group of capitalists, all their stock in
the Cain Consolidated Mining company
of Aurora. The property consists of
mines and a mill at Aurora and a water
power, real estate, etc., at Jordan IN
Mono county, formerly owned by the
Goleta Consolidated company.
Within the next week surveyors will

SALT LAKE, March 22.-Although
weather conditions and the ruggedness
of the country have combined to pre-
vent anything like extensive develop
ment of ~Jarbidge prospects, it is de-
clared with ~positiveness by Dan Green
walt, experienced miner, and manager
of the Jarbidge Bunker Hill Mining
company, that the showings in the sew
eral properties in which work has been
done are of a nature to convince the
most conservative mining men that fur
Their work, in anticipation of opening
big mines, is justified.
1.-THE tunnel in the Bourne property
has been driven 80 feet in solid ore,"
said Mr.. Greenwalt. "Sides, floor and
roof of the workings for that distance
are all ore, and the face of the tunnel
shows free gold all through it. Grab
samples from every load of dirt brought
out leave long strings of gold in the
pan. 1t is a showing to arouse enthusI-
asts for and to inspire confidence in any
mining camp.
"In the several places on the Bunker
Hill vein where we have sunk prospect
holes we have opened invariably five
feet of ore which average $35 and $40
a ton. We are driving a 40-foot cross
cut tunnel to catch the vein at about
40 feet depth. With the ore showing
at that depth anything like the indica-
tions warrant us to anticipate, we shall

The Rawhide Mining company will
install a hosting plant right away on
their Last Chance property. They have
six feet of fine milling ore which they
will proceed to break down for treat
ment in the local mills. This will be
extracted from the 10 level, the ore
body having been proven up for 200
feet. President A. A. Codd, who is
now in Rawhide, states that a most
energetic campaign of development will
be carried on by the Rawhide Mining
