IzE HORSE MARKET

II. II. Hoops, the Schuyler, Nebraska,
horsebuyer who has been at the Hotel
Lafayette for the past several days,
is in the market for a thousand head
of horses of all descriptions. When
asked last evening as to the condition
of the horse market, Mr.. Hoops re-
piled:
''The market at st. Louis, st. Joe,
Omaha and Grand Island is off from
SIS to $50 head. The only stable
market at present is for heavy draft
horses and this class of stock today is
bringing from 10 to 90 per cent less
than year and half pr two years
ago

ply. 'You do not see the bad eff

have gne automobile mad. Many
have mortgaged their homes to secure

that there is at present little or no

Want CON" man
IN THIS COUNTY

Early this year two men were arrest
ed in northern Elko county, charged
with obtaining money by false pre-.
tense. They had been making a can
vass Of the ranches, selling bills Of
supplies at. remarkably low prices,
claiming to represent a Kansas City
house, and obtaining a portion of the
purchase money in each instance. At.
ter waiting a reasonable length of
time for the goods to shew up, the vic
tins communicated with the house and
learned that the men were imposters.
When arraigned for trial, one of the
men plead guilty, assuming the entire
burden of guilt, and was sentenced to
18 months in the penitentiary. The
other man came up for trial at Elko
this week, and had his opal" brought
up from Carson City in the capacity of
star witness, with the result that he
was yesterday acquitted by jury.
But that did not end his troubles
During the last term of court N. G..
Frendesen, of Unionville, swore to a
complaint charging the party with
having defrauded him In the same
manner, and the local officers notified
the Elko authorities to hold the man
in case of an acquittal. Yesterday the
sheriff's Office was notified that the
man had cheat" the case and Sheriff

WATER RESOURCES
IN THE UNITED STATES

The present status Of our water re-
source utilization does not make a very
good showing. The availing water
power of our rivers is estimated at
more than 200,000,000 horsepower, Of
which about 100000 are SO far devel-
oped. OF all the water supply in our
rivers, about 80 per cent wastes an
nually in freshets and floods. The
damages from floods during the last
decade to railroad properties are esti-
mated at $S0,000,000, and all damages
during that period at 100000, 900;
about 600,000,000 cubic yards of sur
face soil are annually washed off by
floods. The value of our water re-
sources lies in their utilization, but
these conditions reveal the fact that
only about three per cent is put to SER
vice, and that the economical benefits
of this service are absolutely wiped
out by the overwhelming losses and
waste. 1t is also estimated that by in.
vesting $500, ,000,0 900 in water conserva.
tion our inland waterways would be so
improved as to realize a saving in an
nual transportation cost of $3.50, ,000,-
900, annual flood destruction would be
reduced by $100,000,000, and forest
fire damages would be lessened by
$25, ,000,0 900, and that the value of the
thereby created water-power resources
would compensate for this investment
and for its continuance at the rate of
$50, 100000 yearly.
Water-power development in the
United States are practically at
standstill, while eur neighbors to the
north are in the midst of greatest CON-
bine in retarding such Developments
at the present time in the United
States; the first is the unsound meth.
DDS of exploiting and developing wa
ter-powers, while the second lies in
the lack of harmonious and effective
cooperation between the interests
controlling these opportunities. The
remedy for the first would be secured
by supervision, which would be a guar
antee that these enterprises merit the
confidence of the investing public; and
for the second by such fixed and uni.
form Federal and state cooperative
policies as would create river-flow reg.
ulation and, consequently, make re.
sourceful developments a certainty

2O-STAMP Mill
FOR OHIO Mine

Donald Ferguson, Of Goldfield, gen.
eral manager of the Ohio mine, arriv-
ed in town yesterday and will leave
for Rebel Creek, where the mine 10
situated, in the morning.
When seen at the Hotel Lafayette
this afternoon and asked what work
would be done on the property in the
near future, Mr.. Ferguson replied:
Within the next sixty days We
shall begin the erection Of q 20-stsmp
mill on the property. There is already
a million and a quarter dollars worth
of ore blocked out, which will be avail
able as soon AZ the mill is completed
and we shall start up immediately.
The greater part Of this is rock that
will run $17 to the ton in gold and
silver, although there is considerable
high-grade in the mine. We have an
immense tonnage of this low-grade
ore, and there is enough in sight to
keep a 2Ostamp mill running for
wears -

GREAT SCARCITY OF LEAD
ORES IN THE MARKET

A feature of the mining conditions
which should encourage the producer is
the fact that there is great scarcity
of lead ores in the market This condi-
tion has existed for some time, and
especially since there has been such
active and keen competition between
a number of smelling companies for
this character of ore.
For some reason or other the owners
OF lead-producing mines have failed to
respond to the urgent demand for
"more ore" and as consequence the
smelters have been running short, and
way below actual capacity, because Of
this curtailment in the supply of lead
ores; and the mining regions and
camps of the west are being thorough
ly canvassed in the effort to increase
shipments to the smelling centers.-
