Mining Camps in North Central Nevada

report on mining camps in Ellzo
county and in parts of Lander and Eu-
reka counties, Nevada, by William H.
Emmons, geologist, has just been pub
lished by the United States geological
survey as bulletin 40S. The report con-
tains descriptions of the geology and ore
deposity of 30 mining camps The area
surveyed comprises about 1000 square
miles and includes the famous Tusca-
rora mines, which even before the Com
stock lode had reached its point of
highest production, had yielded gold
and silver having IL value of millions of
dollars
Nevada has long been great pro-
duccrof the precious metals and has
| also contributed to the worlds metallic
wealth large amounts of copper, lend
and zinc. The fame of the Comstock
| became world wide as long ago as 1860,
and in those days prospecting was the
principal business of the rapidly in
crcaSing population of this region
Many valuable ore deposits were
discovered during the ten years follow
ing and the mining of silver in Nevada
reached its highest activity i'm the
seventies and eighties. The decline of
silver mining in the nineties, the
prominence of silver coinage us political
issue, and the final exaltation of the
white metal to Il dominating place in a
presidential campaign have bscame
part of the important chapter of the
history of the United States.
After long period of neglect
prospecting was energetically resumed
in Elko county in 1905 and 1907 and
resulted in the establishment of several
new comps, like Gold Circle. In 1907
the mines in the area surveyed by Mr..
Emmons produced metals valued at
$780, 600.
Mr.. E,nmunS describes the geology Of
the region, the general character of the
ore deposits, and tn e features observed
at the mines visited. The report coy
ers 1870 pages and is illustrated by five
Autographed maps and numerous fig
ures 1t can be had without charge

The Columbia Land company VS..
the Maxwell Land & Irrigation COM
pany is the title of a suit filed in the
clerks office yesterday afternoon by
d. w. Bailey and Raley & Raley, at

owned by the former. The plaintiff
asks for a temporary Injunction re-
straining the defendant from selling
or contracting to sell lands described
In the contract, for decree that the
defendant make and execute to the
several persons to whom the plaintiff
has sold lands contracts to cover and
protect alleged deferred commissions
due the plaintiff, and that the Defend
ant be perpetually enjoined from SELL

PHELPS EXPLAINS STATUS.
tcontinued from Page one,

defendants have again stipulated the
facts and have agreed that they were
selling beverage that contained Ia
per cent of alcohol and they desiring
to raise the same legal question, have
asked that these cases follow the
cases now upon appeal in the supreme
court. Their right of appeal cannot
be denied.
''If the supreme court decides that
there is local option law applicable
to. Umatilla county, each defendant
will be sentenced by the court in as
many cases as there are indictments
against the defendant and any sub
sequent violations of the law will ne
cessarily mean Jail sentence under
the law. If 1t is decided by the su-
preme court that there is no local op-
tion law, then of course all the cases
will be dismissed by such decision. In
the meantime If any person whose
oath would be accepted by a trial
jury will procure samples of the
drink that is being sold throughout
the county, this office will see that
it is analyzed and the evidence pre-
sented to the grand jury for such vac
tion as that body may see fit to take"

EARHART WANTS DAMAGES
FOR SWTTZLER INJUNCTION

Arguments to the demurrer in the
action for damages filed by F. E.
Earnhart against ]. B. Switzler were
heard by Judge Bean yesterday af-
ternoon. This Is an echo of the legal
battle for possession of the Dave Bea-
vert or Little Switzler island in the
Columbia river.
1t will be remembered that Earn
hart took possession Of the island
while it was claimed by SwitZler and
after legal contest, which was car
ried to the United States courts, fl
nally won a decree which gave him
possession. Soon after Earnhart had
taken possession Of the island to the
exclusion of Switzler. the latter Sc
cured an injunction and had Earn
hart put off.
A week ago, or after the final de-
cree of the courts had been render
ed in the case, Earnhart brought an
action for damages against Switzler
for filing the injunction suit. Switz-
ler's attorneys demurred and the de-
murrer was argued yesterday.

MOSES WOODWARD
CALLED BY DEATH
ANOTHER PIONEER OF
UMATILI4A COUNTY DIES
Former Rancher Near Athena Passes
Away in Walla Walla of Senile De-
cay-FumeraI Arranged for Sunday.

In the death of Moses Woodward al
Walla Walla last night, another old
pioneer of Umatilla county has been
called across the great divide. The
deceased man was for many years a
resident of the farming section near
Athena, but several years ago retired
from ranch life and moved into WAL
la Walla, where he has since resided
He has been helpless for the past six
months so that his death was not
sudden or unexpected.
Death was due to senile decay. On
Sunday he became perceptibly worse
and sank gradually until the end
came After Mr.. Woodward became
helpless he occupied an invalid's
chair until Sunday, when he was plac-
ed in bed from which he did not rise.
He is survived by his wife and three
children, one daughter, Miss Eva
woodward. OF Walla Walla, and two
sons, George and Casper L. Wood
ward, who farm near Athena. All
of the immediate family and other
relatives were at the bedside when
Mr.. Woodward passed away.
Moses Woodward was a pioneer of
that hardy class who put their lives
into the making of the west. He was
born in Ellsworth, Ohio, July 23.
1882, and was therefore IS years of
age at his death. At the age of 10
years he crossed the plains with his
parents, driving five yoke of oxen
most of the way. He settled near
Salem in the Willamette valley in Or
egon, where on October Is. 1872. he
married Miss Laura Fletcher. I'm
mediately after the marriage they
crossed the Cascade mountains. taxi
ing up homestead near where is now
Athena in this county. Nine years
ago Mr.. woodward retired from ac-
tive farm life and moved to Walla
Walla, where he has since made his
home.
He has been an active member and
supporter of the Christian church and
three years ago was elected an elder
in the Walla Walla church for life.
He served actively in this capacity
until old age compelled him to give
the work over into other hands. He
not only gave liberal financial aid to
his home church, but aided substan-
TALLY other religious and education
al work abroad.
The funeral will take place at l
O'Clock on Sunday at the Christian
church in Walla Walla.

Making Good i'm Football.

Advices from the University of
Oregon state that two former PEN
dleton high school football stars,
Arthur Means and Hawley Bean, are
showing up in fine shape during the
early season practice at that institu-
ton and stand likelihood of wearing
suits in the varsity scrimmages this
year. Means has been drawn into
the back field by Coach Warner and
recently appeared in the fullback po-
sition in a practice game. Bean is
trying out for halfback and will un-
doubtedly accompany the team on its
trips in the capacity Of substitute.
'Pendleton high has probably turned
out more stars of college calibre than
has any other high school in the
state.

With the court house filled to over

the man who is asking the people to
elect him to the position which he is
filling temporarily, other speakers
We're Judge Stephen A. Lowell, who
acted as chairman Of the meeting.
Congressman W. R. Ellis and George
Cochran, of La Grande, who is the
candidate of the republican party for

On the platform were Judge Bean.

n. Burgess, candidate for state sena-
tor; c. A. Barrett, candidate for

tive; T. P. Gilliland, candidate for
county judge, and others.
The meeting had been preceded by
street concert by the Roundup Cow
boy band and was opened with the
singing of the Bowerman campaign
song. lead by Miss Bernice Ruppe
and participated in by the audience.
In his opening address, Judge Low
ell gave a history of the republican
party and named as its present day
leaders Theodore Roosevelt and Sem
ator La Toilette. He also declared
that the republican party was the
father and sponsor of the direct pri-
mary law and the only of, by and
for the common people.
Cochran was first introduced and
spent short quarter of an hour in
explaining the duties of the office to
which he aspires, and his fitness for
a proper performance of those du-
ties
Congressman Ellis was next intro
duced as the man who had recently
been defeated for denomination in
the primaries, but who would return
to private life just as highly honored
and respected by his fellow towns
men as though he had been made
president of the United States. The
ovation which greeted the retiring

legislative candidates throughout the
state meet with the state central
committee to adopt a definite plat
form for he presen campaign.
East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1910-10-14

congressman was second only to that
accorded Bowerman.
Ellis spoke briefly, declaring there
were some things in this life better
than holding office and that one Of
these was to be able to retire to pri-
vate life, retaining ones own self
respect and the respect and honor of
ones neighbors.
Bowerman, the principal speaker of
the evening, devoted the greater part
of his time to an attack upon Senator
Bourne, who though a republican, is
opposing the candidacy of the repub-
lican nominee on the grounds that he
was nominated by an assembly domi-
mated by corporations, that he is an
expert machine politician, that he is a
foe of the direct primary, the initia-
tive and the progressive principles so
dear to the voters of Oregon. The
speaker insisted he was not an as
sembly nominee, not an anti-assem-
bly, nominee, but the nominee of the
whole republican party
He spoke of reforms he would ad-
vocate and endeavor to have intro
duced in the management of y the
states institutions, should he be
elected. Chief among these would
be the purchasing of supplies in large
quantities, he said
Bowerman admitted his part in the
slaughter of the Oregon normal
schools and spent considerable time
in an attempt to justify his course
in this regard. He declared that
there was not one of the normal
schools maintained by the state which
was teaching all the courses of study
which should be taught by a normal
school He also called attention to
the alleged great per capita cost for
the graduation of normal school stu
dents, but declared that the worst
feature of the old normal school sys-
TEN was their political log rolling
methods. In other words he intimat-
ed that he had killed the normal
schools to get them out of politics.
Bowerman left last night for Port
land to attend the meeting of re-
publican candidStes. The acting
governor expects, however, to return
to Pendleton and make a tour of the
east end of the county before the
election in November.
