NAMES IN
MASON VALLEY BANK

With the directors and attaches
composed almost entirely of former
residents of Ely. the Mason Valley
Bank, with a capitalization of S25,-
600 and a surplus of $4,000 opened
its doors for business last Monday.
The new banking institution has the
financial support of the copper mag
mates, which control the big smelling
plant near Mason City.
w. w. Armstrong, president OF the
National Copper Bank of Salt Lake,
and we'll known in the Ely district
through his connection with the First
National Bank, is president.
II. w. Culbertson, formerly man
ager of the Ely Lumber and Coal
company, is cashier and William
Biggane, formerly assistant cashier
of the First National Bank. holds a
similar position at Mason City.
George f.. Gum of the Gum
Thompson company of East Ely, and
A. J. Maeallan, formerly manager OF
the Comins ranch in Steptoe Valley,
are included in the directorate.
The bank building has been ready
for occupancy for several weeks.
The institution will conduct a gen
eral banking business and will be
prepared to issue exchange in all
parts of the world.

to be chiefly of negative character so
far as revealing any unusual amount
of potash is concerned.
Extension of the study of the
Great Basin desert region revealed
this as the most promising area o
the surveys first drilling operations.
This conclusion was based largely on
the early geologic work of G. X.
Gilbert and |. c. Russell, who, in
survey Monographs | and X1, des-
cribe in scientific detail the pre-
historic Lakes Bonneville and Lahon-
tan. These ancient lakes were, in a
former geologic age, enormous bodies
of water, many times the area OF
Lake Superior, and Mr.. Gale states
that no more convincing reason can
be advanced for the belief that I'M
mense quantities of saline material
must be included in the strata nder
lying the desert sinks of the Great
Basin than that set forth in the philo-
sophie writings of these eminent geo
logists. His report contains direct
quotations from these monographs,
describing in detail the origin and
structure of the old lake beds, and
he adds that there exists in these
treaties, representing field investiga-
tions in the early eighties, a wealth
of maturely digested data on which
to base the proposed plan OF opera
ton in 1911. From the study of
these reports with their excellent
maps it was concluded that the most
promising tests of the hypothesis of
possible buried salines in coneen-
trated form would be somewhere in
the low portions of either the Lahon-
tan or the Bonneville basin. h La
hontan basin was chosen because
that lake is known TO have never
overlooked. The drill site selected
is in Sec. 80, T. p n. r. 30 E., in
; Nevada.
A drilling outfit having been
shipped from %PittsbuTg, operations
were begun on October l with a IL
inch drill hole and the site was
named the Timber Lake Well. The
report gives the log of the we'll,
which on November Is had reached
the depth of 319 feet. Evidence OF
the geologic period of desiccation in
the form of c~rystallized beds of sal
inc material has not yet been found
in the strata penetrated, but it is ex-
pected that the drilling will be con
inued until at least a depth of 1000
feet is reached.
The discovery of such saline de-
posits, though its likelihood is sup
ported by the best geologic informa-
ton of today, says Mr.. Gale, should
perhaps be regarded as a possibility
rather than a probability. Inquiries
are being received asking for an esti-
mate of the probabilities of success
in such an enterprise, with special
reference to private undertakings
based on the same plans. This, ac-
cording to Mr.. Gale, is a matter of
judgment and each inquirer is left
TO draw his own conclusions from the
facts presented in the report of the
surveys progress. The value of this
possibility has of course been care
fully considered and it is believed
that as a public enterprise, at least,
a reasonable test is not only justified
but highly desirable. The report

LEAF LEDGER
SYSTEM IS ADOPTED

The Observation-Disclosures system
which necessitates the use of a loose
leaf ledgers and a typewriter IN
keeping a record of transactions in
which the city is interested. has been
adopted by the city council. The
system of loose leaf ledgers has sup
erceded the use of book typewriting
machines in the maintaining of eoun-
ty and city records almost generally
throughout the country.
Only three books will be necessary
under the new arrangements, while
under present conditions the city
clerk has been burdened with almost
a dozen record books. The loose
leaves contain a special water mark,
which will prevent the extraction of
pages and substituting others in their
stead. A locking device is also pro-
vided, which will enable the city
clerk to take precaution against the
abstraction of leaves.
The adoption of loose leaf ledgers
by the city authorities will entail an
expense of about 500, but the
council figures that the benefits To
be derived therefrom will more than
offset the money involved in the pur-
chase.
An effort will be made by the city
council 10 prevent peddlers from
soliciting business within the corpor-
ate limits without first procuring a
license. City Attorney Boreman has
advised Marshal Short TO notify
these people that they are violating
a city ordinance, and If they fail To
follow instructions it is probable that
a test case will be made.
Ernst ". Jackson was awarded the
contract for sprinkling the city
streets two hours each day, with the
understanding that the eompensa-
ton would be 81 for such service.
Steptoe Harris was appointed as a
special deputy to devote his attention
10 city prisoners. who are engaged
in street work at a salary OF 81 a
day.
Councilman Bates Of the financial
committee stated that $500 would
be received from the last installmeht
on the sidewalk tax. and that in the
neighborhood of $4,000 would be
derived from the money received
from city taxes.

GREEK AMERICAN
ACQUIRES TITLE

The Greek American Mining com

mineral holdings in the Aurm dis
triet, having received a deed 10 the
ground from Simon Davis, the origi-
nal locator. The final payment was
made last Tuesday, Mr.. Davis max
ing the trip from Salt Lake for the
purpose of signing up the papers.
A small force of men will be main

during the winter months under the
direction of W. j. Stewart. Regular
shipments will be resumed as soon as
the condition of the road across the

There is only one way to cure deaf

remedies. Deafness is caused by an
infamed condition of the mucous lin
ing Of the Eustachian tube. When
this tube is inf1amed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing.
and when it is entirely closed, deaf
ness is the result, and unless the In
tlammation can be taken out and this
tube restored 10 its normal condition,
hearing will be destroyed forever;
