To GET HER
SUGAR FACTORY
after ALL

FALLON, New, May 3l.-Fred
Heinze of Santa Ana, CAL, who re-
Gently withdrew from the Nevada
Sugar company, of which he was gen
eral manager, has been induced to re-
turn and resume charge of the com
pany's affairs. This was accomplished
by apologies made by the members OF
the board of directors, who hampered
him and by their agreement to resign
when asked. The company will now
proceed to complete the great beet
sugar factory it has under construc-
ton here, and the farmers of the
Truckee-Carson reclamation PROJECT
are highly elated.
Additional funds have been guar
anteed and the sugar project is on a
better footing than it has ever been
since it was first proposed. The lands
under this government project produce
a fine quality of sugar beet and the
factory will afford a market for a
very profitable crop.

VIRGINIA CITY, May 31.-The low
ering of the water at the c. & {. shaft
is the chief point of interest in the
work on the lode this week, ana excel
lent progress is being made. Several
sections of the column and rods of the
old Cornish pumping system have been
taken out and are the object of much
curiosity. The shaft has now been
practically cleaned out TO the present
water level, which is approximately 10
feet below the 1850 station. The tim
bers in the shaft below the 2450 to this
point are in fine state of preservation.
1t is expected nov that by the last of
this week or the first of next that
everything will be in readiness to lower
No. 2 elevator still deeper below the
water level, and another section
of the shaft pumped and cleaned out
and repaired. The auxiliary pumps
continue to do first class work.
In the Ophir and Con. Virginia
mines the operations are being carried
on at the same points as last week,
with no important new developments
thus far this week. In Con. Virginia,
the taking up of the water, will allow
new prospecting work in the deep lev
els, but no new work has yet been
started. Stopping of ore from the
1850 and 1900 levels continues, ana
Ophir is shipping ore to Kinkead' :
mill. In the latter mine no changes

STEADY WORK ON The
GRIZZLY BEAR LEASE

Steady work is in progress on the
Grizzly Bear lease, on the Consolidated
estate to the southeast of the Cler-
mont shaft. The drift on the vein
opened at ITO feet is now some 100
feet in length, going along the vein
both ways from the shaft, that is. to
the northeast and southwest. The vein
is some fifteen feet in width, and the
entire drift is in ore that averages
around the So mark. The ore is a
hard, dark colored quartz, associated
with much kaolinite and gouge matter,
and containing crystals of fa%matinite.
The Offices of the Grizzly Bear com
pany have been moved into the quar-
ters formerly occupied by the Nevada
Goldfeld Reduction company, in The
News building, just off the Montezuma
club entrance.

One of the most gratifying pieces of
mining news that the Reveille has pub
lished this year is of the strike made
ON the estate of the Austin Central Min
ing company by leasers who began
work a little over thirty days ago..
The strike was made at a point fig
ured out before the operations began.
An eighteen inch ledge of high grade
milling ore, lying parallel to the
famous Silver Chamber and only a short
distance north of that great producer,
is what has been broken into. 1t is in
this immediate vicinity that pockets or
lenses of silver ore running as high as
two dollars a pound, were found in for
mer times, when the ground, now be-
longing to the Austin Central, was last
worked.
The point where the ledge was pene-
trated this week, is clearly not in one
of the richest portions of the ore body.
Drifting will be carried each way, and
as this progresses, Stopping will be com
menced on the richest pay shoots.
The drift will be run at level which
will give 800 feet of backs, a very in

WELCOME Change in
7. & 7. time TABLE

Unless present plans are changed the
trains of the Tonopah and Tidewater
railroad will after about June Is cross
the desert between here and Los An
geles in the night time. The company
will be enabled to make the change In
time for the reason that the Santa Fe
will shortly have it's new road from
Phoenix, Arizona, connecting with the
main line at Bengal, a short distance
west of Ludlow, in running order there
by permitting of different connections
into and out of Los Angeles. The new
service from Phoenix to Los Angeles
will be local and consequently faster
than the limited with which connections
are now being made by T. and t. trains.
Should the contemplated change be
made the outgoing T. and T. train will
leave Goldfeld at about 5 p. N. reaching
Los Angeles at II a. m; the departure
from Los Angeles will be made at 2
p. m. with the arrival time here fixed
at about 9 a. m.

PUMPS THAT MADE HISTORY
ARE TAKEN FROM COMSTOCK

are reported from the $500 or sfoV
levels.
At the Mexican mine this week the
operations are largely what are char
acterized as dead work, it being neces-
sary to do considerable timbering IN
the workings on the west vein on
the 2300 level. On the 2400 level, the
west erosseut from the Wine station is
being continued and is in vein ma
terial. Some distance remains to go
before it may be expected to cut the
vein itself, but the face is said TO be
getting more favorable every day. In
the WINE, the additional pump has
been installed on the 1900 level, which
is easily taking care of the small How
of water above the 2300. In the winze
very little water is being encountered
and the sinking pump is handling it
readily.
AT the Ward shaft, work has been
started setting up me of the three
new pumps to be installed on the 2lOO
pump station, the first one being To-
Gated at the west end of the station.
Other work is progressing as usual at
the Ward.
The pumping plant at the Monte
Cristo is doing excellent work and
has lowered the water in the shaft
from Is to 20 feet. There is a big ter
ritory to drain and progress is neces-
sarily slow.

MANHATTAN LEASERS
TAKING OUT The Ore

TONOPAH, May Give will have
1000 ions of ore on the dump by the
first of June said Gilbert c.. Ross
uuon his return from Manhattan. Mr..
- is one of the owners of the Swan
SON Ross-Lyon lease on the Earl estate.
The lease has been known as the Swan
son lease and has been in ore from
the surface. When the amount OF
ore stated by Mr.. Ross has been
taken out a mill run will be made.
A depth of $50 feet has been at
tanned and the ore body is stronger
and the walls better defined than
ever. The lease is equipped with a
gasoline hoist and the intention is
to continue sinking on the vein to a
depth of several hundred feet.
This lease has already made
number of mill runs and the ore has
shown a very high value. Mr.. Ross
is highly elated over the outlook al
Manhattan and says he believes
there will be more work done there
this year than ever before. Now that
the litigation is out of the way .anC
the warm weather has come 50 that the
placers may be worked to the limit, il
certainly does look as though the Pine
Tree camp had a brilliant future.

Shows Which Way the Wind
Blows

Last week a Republican caucus in
Bath instructed its nominees for the
Legislature to support Hon. Frederick
A. Powers as a candidate for the
United States Senate to succeed Sen
ator Hale. This action of the Bath Re-
publicans is one more indication of
the spread of the Powers sentiment
throughout the State for Bath, owing
to its location might naturally enough
have been regarded as likely to sup
port Ex-Governor COBB rather than
ex-Judge Powers. The candidacy of
Judge Powers has met a reception
that already indicates to a practical
certainty that he will have majority
of the Republican members of the
Legislature behind him Fitted both
by ability and training for public SER
vice. he will make creditable rep
resentative of the State in the upper
house of Congress and maintain there
the high reputation which Maine has
enjoyed in the councils of the nation.
Portland Times.
Yes; this is a fair indication. if one
were looking for indications, but
what Is the use to look for indica-
tions and strange signs? 1t must be
clear to everyone by now that Mr..
Cobb Is simply getting into line for
the position now held by Senator
Frye. Judge Powers long ago had
the State behind him in this fight. It's
simply a walk-over for Powers and
a wait-over for Cobb.

THURSDAY, JUNE %.
Family Ties

Governor Fernald has just announc-
ed a batch of appointments to lucra-
tive offices in Maine. Some of these
appointments will be readily and
heartily endorsed by the good people
of this State, but some of them will
most assuredly not. The turning
down of Commissioner Carleton, him
self an old soldier and one who has
done a vast amount of good service
for the State, will not be received
with good grace by many clear think
ing citizens; while the way in which
this appointment was brought about,
the previous claims of Mr.. Bracket
stated ON the grounds of the Gov
ernor's promise, will not tend to
sweeten the lump.
But the most unusual appointment
of all, and one which is already Great
ing comment in different parts of the
State, is that of the State Librarian.
Just why Mr.. Emery has completed
his work as Librarian, we do not
know; but just what reasons the Gov
ernor can offer the people of Maine
for handing over the Office to his
brother-in-law, we are at a complete
loss to understand The office, as we
understand it, draws a good salary
and demands someone who is capable
of filing 1t. We have no personal
grievances against the new incum-
bent; our objections to his appoint
ment are placed on two grounds,
namely, his fitness for the position,
and the fact that blood relationship
should have entered into the Gov
ernor's considerations. The Office
surely demands one of wide expert
ence, broad scholarship, and of we'll
balanced mental forces. To appoint
any other than such an one Is to COM
NIT travesty upon good common sense
and to trifie with good political wis
dom.
The Governor needs to bear in mind
that the offices of this State are not
for charitable purposes nor are they
to be used in fatting the pocket books
of those of ones own kith and kin;
the salaries attached to them are
large enough to command reliable
men, men of aggressive disposition,
of which the State of Maine has
countless numbers. The Governor
needs to bear these things in mind at
this time especially when very vigor-
GUS claims are being made that this
State is bound to go to the Democratic
column this fall
And we are bound to confess that
IL the Governor persists in forcing
upon the people of Maine men who
are totally unfit for the work of the
offices to which they are elected, the
promised downfall of Republicanism
is as sure to take place this fall as
that night shall follow the day.
The Governor should be asked to
give sufficient reasons for the ap-
pointment of the new Librarian; he
should be cautioned against nominal
ing men for office simply because they
happen to claim membership in the
Fernald family.
