The Rawhlde Metals company is
pushing the development work on us
property ON the hill west of Rawhide
with persistence, says the Press-Iimes.
Day and night shifts are employer
with good force of men. The Raw
hide Metals company is spiendidly
equipped with machinery and build
ings, and in this respect is as well fitted
to do its work as any company IN the
district. They have an excellent work
ing shaft, timbered from top to bot
tom. This work is being driven down
as fast as possible, and at the l5o-foot
level drifts are being driven in both
easterly and westerly directions.
The ground composing the COM
pany's holdings is traversed by q
great number Of veins, intersectinS
each other at various points. High val
ues have been obtained in many piae-
es on the surface, and it is expected
that at the point of intersection below
large bodies of rich ore will be foune.
In this connection it may be said tnat
there exists an intrusive dixie OF al
tered granite, running north and soutn'
with contact veins on each side OF II,
wherein the granite forms the foot wan
and the porphyry the hanging wall.
Level No. 2 is being operated on Dy
drifts, one cut westerly to contact on
the east side of the granite dixie. TINS
win be driven ON westerly to cut the
west contact. The east drift will &c
extended to cut number of veins thar
lie to the east and which have bee'
opened up on the surface

Feb. Is, Manager E. S, Cunningham OF
the Jack Pot has DECIDED not to wait
for it, but to go right ahead with de-
velopment work. His plans embrace
the sinking of thf shaft from the 300
tc the 5O0-foot level, and the thorough
exploration of the great ledge at that
depth, says the Wonder News. For
this purpose he will Immediately put in
position a more powerful hoist than the
one now in service, add few more men
to his force and proceed to bore the
mole.
No preparation for continued sinking
operations will be necessary, save tue
taking out of the small gasoline hoist
and replacing it with one a few sizes
larger. The gallows frame is up, in
first-elass shape, and the shaft, which
was recently retimbered from top to
bottom with view to further sinking
could not be improved upon.
In the last two years considerable
money has been spent in thoroughly
prospecting this big property, and .

CUTTING A NEW STATION
IN NEW YORK PROPERTY

A station, 2ox20 feet in size, is being
cut on the 300 level of the New York.
In doing this work considerable fine
copper-stained ore was exposed, large
chunks of which were hoisted to the
surface. In all probability President
Hurt will let contract for sinking the
main shaft at least an additional 100
feet Searchlight Bulletin.

At the point where the rich ore which
called attention to the place was found,
the owners have ding small shaft anu
have sacked some ore. The ledge is
very wloe, containing considerable
quartz of a dark brown color, and it
pans well in free gold. The ledge can
be easily traced for several miles, Is
from six to sixty feet VICE, and is in
contact of lime and porphyry. Samples
were taken from many places along the
vein, and no difficulty was experienced
in getting colors at any point. Messrs.
Pease and Dempsey intend to return 60
their locations in a few days and do
some work, with the expectation OF
finding something good.

Too Costly Town Government.

Before Clifton was Incorporated
! the most ardent supporters of the
| moye believed that the cost of main
| tanning the government would no
exceed $500 a month, and many figured
it much less, but what has been the
result?
The running expense has been 81, SOC
month, and apparently on the in
crease. If we eliminate the big COM
panies, the Inhabitants of the town
are com aratiYely poor. Our popula-
ton will not exceed $500.
The large monthly expense is a
hard drain on so small "a place.
There ought to be a move to cheaper
expenses, which can be done. We do
not need marshal, city clerk, a
city attorney, nor salaried police
Judge.
There is no reason why a constable
or deputy sheriff may not be appointed
marshall at a salary OF $50 per month
if such is necessary.
Any clerical work that the town
has need for can be done for far less
that it now pays.
The occupation taxes shouldeall be
repealed, they are unequal, unjust
and odious. One example will
illustrate many cases, there are
many skilled WOThIDSu WHO receive
salary of $3.50 to $500 per month, they
pay no occupation tax. Here is a
barber who has to pay rents and oc-
cupation tax of Sl2, second chair So,
who as a rule makes far less than the
skilled mechanic who pays none of
the town expenses.
Nearly all who vend the necessaries
of life are fined by an occupation tax,
which in the end must be paid by the
consumer.
The tax between the small mer-
chant who can hardly keep his head
above tide is unequal and unjust in
comparison with the license tax paid
by the big stores.
As rule, the least governmental
restraint possible, the better we are
off.
If the town authorities cannot find
a way to cheapen the costs Of govern
ment, it may be done in another way,
disincorporate
The fact is patent to the most
casual observer that we are paying
more than the thing is worth.
