One of The most remarkable mining
carps ever discovered anywhere is the
camp Of National, New. about which Sa''
Lake is slowly but surely hearing cN-
tsemeIy favorable tidings. Held back tor
Il year or two on account OF hushtioh'
the leading mine of the camp within one
month OF the resumption of development
work shipped out over 100000 worth oil
gold ore. This was shipped from the
Stall lease on the property of the Ma
tional Mining company, the star perform
er Of the SaSebrush state at TINS ume.
Since last May. the National compannayy ny
itself has been sending out about S2b00oo
IN gold per month. This came from high-
grade gold ore and not all the, the hisn srnac spa
rated from its yellow metal content, ior
the management Is treating only 10o
pounds of gold ore each twenty-foqdr went ,aod
hours. The little pan arrastra mill treat
ing this small amount OF rock daily is
making tailings that average so cents per
pound, not per ton, but per pound. Inc
and few would refuse lease on the tall
ings dumps.
The ore body from which this enor-
mously rich ore comes Is from Two to
seven feet In width. the rich streak rang
ing from three inches TO one foot in
width The ore first encountered
on the seventy nve-foot level and 1t has
been opened continuously to the 465-foot
level and IL has been opened along the
strike for $50 feet without showing any
Indications of pnG;hhing out or sr9w,b6s oS Ing
ore recently taken out weighed 122
pounds. and there was $4,000 worth OF
gold in il. One shift a few days ago
These are a few of the wonders Of the
National mine given The Tribune yes
terday by G.. w Hartley, one of the po-
into National a year from last February,
and having exceptional facilities TO pick
up good ground, secured group adjoin-
ing the National on the south. His
ground is $50 feet distant from the mouth
OF the Stall tunnel, which has been dis
closing these wonders, and his properly,
now owned by the Charlestown Hill Min
Ing company. contains the southern ex.
tension OF this famous vein, and also OF
the two parallel veins just east OF the
main vein. Mr.. Hartley has had l12 ap-
Hill group. but he has let only two so
far, With the probability that one more
will be given soon One OF the leases
given by Mr. Hartley and associates was
to Herman II. Green OF Salt Lake, the
we'll known mining and smelling enei-
neer and the Green lease soon Will be
spot on which many eyes will be focused.
Should the Green lease hit the same high
grade as the Stall brothers now have
and there is every reason to believe that
II will-Mr. Green and associates have
secured one OF the most inviting PROPOSE
tons in the history of Nevada
Mr. Hartley stated yesterday that the
National camp now numbers It's inhabit-
ants by 1000. The town is growing fast.
and Ray d. Harris, once connected with
The Tribune. is editor and proprietor of
a hustling paper called the National
Miner. Besides the National property.
the Radiator group is producer. The
Mayfiower has high-grade ore. and the
Auto recently struck rich gold rock at a
depth of 0fty feet. From WInnemucca
there are daily stage and auto trans
portation each way. Mr.. Hartley says
that the old Goldf1eld opera tors. famed
for their success IN leasing, are coming
into National. lured by the wonderfully
rich rock which the camp provides.
