PROSPECTS

IMPROVING
Marion County Will Give
Majority For Republican
Party This Fall-Demo-
Gratis Fail to Close UP Gap
in Ranks.
TIMES BUREAU,
AT STATE CAPITAL.

Indianapolis, Ind, Sept. 24.-Repub-
lican conditions in Marion county are
getting better all the time, and there
is no longer any doubt in the minds
of the politicians here that the county
will give a majority for the Republi-
can ticket this fall. A remarkably
large number of Democrats are coming
into the Republican camp. In fact, the
number is so large that it is causing
much concern among the Democratic
leaders.
The Democra tic organization seems to
be in a bad way, also, and they do not
seem to be able to close up the gaps
in it This has added to the certainty
of Republican success in the county,
for without an organization party
can do nothing.
Several things have contributed to
the present condition in Marion county.

LOTS
IN H0MEWO0O
NOW TO $500
Price of Property in Resi-
Dental District Has Dou-
bled in Value in 4 Years
New Subdivision Is Being
Sold Out Fast.

The most important development in
the local real estate situation is the
announcement by Gostlin, Meyn & Co.
that after thirty days the prices of lots
in Homewood will be raised to $1,000.
This is the third raise in this prop
erty since Gostlin, Meyn & Co. bought
out the residue of the Webb estate
and put nearly 800 lots on the market
The price was then raised from $500
for fifty feet to 5000 and later was in
creased to $1,000. The recent raise
from $1,000 to $1,000 for fifty feet
marks the high water mark for resi-
Dental property in Homewood.
An interesting fact about the prop
erty is that there are only ninety of
these lots left. This means that only
forty to forty-five more people will be
able to buy in Homewood. 1t is be-
lieved that soon as these remaining
ninety lots are sold realty values in
this locality will soar.
While many people have been wor-
rying about business conditions the
price of Homewood property has been
steadily up so that the people who ig-
nored panicy times two years ago and
bought property have now doubled
their money.
To Build Homes.
Gostlip, Meyn & Co. will at once
commence the construction of a home
on Highland street, in their new sub
division, adjoining Homewood, for
Scott Caller of the Simplex.
They announced that they will build
for any one who will make a sub
stantial payment on the property
They-are doing this to improve the
property and soon expect to have a
number of new houses in the process
of construction for their clients.
The lots in this new sub division
are being placed on the market at a
very low figure, and it is expected that
they will increase in value in a manner
similar to those in Homewood.

QUARRYING
MUCH NINA
MARBLE NOW
MANY FINE SAMPLES SENT TO
RENO-WILL INSTALL
MUCH MACHINERY

Although subsequent to the few
months Immediately following its
discovery little has been said or
written about the huge marble de-
posts near Luning and Nina in Es-
meralda county. Work is being
carried on steadily there and the
samples of marble that have been
sent to Reno is evidence the COM
pany has the beginnings of what
will doubtless prove to be one of
the most important and remunera-
tive propositions in : the state.
A vast acreage is covered solidly
with marble outcroppings, showing
every possible tint and texture. At
shallow depth the quarry shows
immense improvement and soon
actual work of extracting marble
will begin. The company will in
stall about $4,000 worth of ma
chinery and will take out the mar
BILE in any size of blocks desired.
The matter of location of the
finishing works has not been decid.
ed upon by the company although
many of the shareholders prefer

GETTING IN Line
FOR ACTIVE WORK
CONSOLIDATED PIOCHE NOW
ASSEMBLING MINERS FOR
WORK IN DISTRICT.

Now that the resumption of rail-
road facilities is so near, the Off
Gals of the Consolidated Phoebe
company are making preparations
to resume development work on
large scale. This company owns
many of the fine groups of the
camp, across which extends the
big Raymond and Ely black ledge.
The ledge was discovered as far
back as 1874 or 1875, and it was
developed to a good depth. The
ore was found to contain an aver
age of about 81 to SIS gold, 3 per
cent copper, 10 per cent lead, SO
ounces silver and 20 per cent zinc.
Repeated efforts were made by the
original owners to properly treat
the ores for the market, and a
mill was installed. Shipments were
made to Swansea and other points,
but no successful method of treat
ment had been evolved up to the
time when the Phoebe district was
abandoned.
This ledge, prospected to below
/ the 1,200-foot level, therefore is
absolutely virgin ore-it has never
been stopped in any place and II
extends clear to the surface. The
Consolidated Phoebe company fol
several months has had numerous
experimental runs made at variou:
ore testing plants of the country
and it has been fully demonstrated
that this ore can be brought dowr
to a commercial basis, and that it,
metallic contents are not so init
mately associated but what separ
alton can be made and the various
necessary products secured for thu
smelters.
It is the plan to reach the blacl
ledge Immediately, and to get it II
shape for large production. B.
the time this development work j
lin hand the plans for the big mil
will be ready and immediate in
stallation of the mill can be locke

TWO SHIFTS TO START
WORK ON THE BOOTH

Two shifts will be started today
sinking the shaft on the Weber
Mclaughlin lease on the Booth. The
shaft is now about $50 feet deep
and it will be sent down another
100 or $50 feet and then cross
cut run to the vein that has been
under development in the present
workings for some time.
Some very encouraging values
have been found in spots at vari
Gus times, but they were not per-
sistent or extensive. II is be-
lieved, however, that greater depth
will bring shipping ore in good
quantities, as the ledge at $50 fe It
depth is large and well defined.
