w. {. Orem states that the Oregon
Short Line railroad is to send out a

of its different departments, for the pur-
pose of getting better acquainted with

Mr.. Orem has taken the liberty of in
viting these people to visit Yerington,
Mason and Smith Valley, and suggests
that arrangements be made to entertain
the visitors for an hour or so i'll Yering-
ton when they come. They will prob
ably arrive in the afternoon and spend
the afternoon i'll going over the Copper

ANOTHER STRIKE IN MASON PASS

Dickey Bros. and Crevey, who have
been prospecting in the Mason Pass
country for some weeks past, made a
very promising discovery a few days
ago. Their strike is about a mile and a
half east of the recent strike made by
AL Matt on the Slater ground, and it
looks very encouraging. They have an
east and west ledge which they have
traced for some distance on the surface.
This ledge is fully four feet in width,
and from holes sunk on it at different
points. to a depth of from FIVE to seven
feet, very nice character of ore is be-
ing taken. The pitch of the ledge is to
the north at an angle OF only about ten
degrees from the perpendicular. The

Yerington Girl Engaged

Word was received from Oakland this
week that Mr.. and Mrs. Nj. Segal
formerly of Yerington, had announced
the engagement of their daughter Eve
lyn to Mr.. Peter N. Williams, of San
Francisco. Just when the wedding will
take place was not stated. Miss Evelyn
is we'll remembered by Yerington peo-
pie as one of the bright, pretty and low
able girls of our community who spent
the greater part of her girlhood days in
our midst. Her husband-to-be is an
employe of Selby Smelter Co., and re-
ported to be Young man of fine char
acter and business ability. The TIMES
joins with many Yerington friends in
wishing Miss Evelyn all the pleasures
of life in her new relationship, and none
of the disappointments.

FINE SHOWING IN
NEVADA-DOUCLAS

The present condition of the Nevada
Douglas mine is more than hattering to
the owners of that property. The new
ground that is now being blocked out
for stopping is new territory of the Lud-
wig portion of the estate, and was not
known to exist until few weeks ago.
This ground is between the 100 and 500
levels, south of the main working shaft
of the mine. The ground has been
proven in way by the upper tunnel on
the l00-foot level and by the south drift
on the $50 foot level.
This territory is now being opened
throughout, and in extending the 100
foot level to the south a splendid body
of high grade smelling ore is being
brought to view. The value of this ore
ranges from to 80 per cent. The man
agement is raising from the 500 level in
magnificent copper ore, and all who
have visited the mine and studied under
ground conditions carefully, and espec-
ally those composing the mine manage
ment. believe positively that the same

SAMPLINC THE
ROCKLAND MINE

A. NJ. Iiowat, representing the United
States Smelling Co., and A. S. Schrader
representing the Pittsburgh people who
own the old Rockland mine, situated a
short distance south of Pine Grove. were
arrivals here the first of the week. and
made arrangements to give the mine a
thorough samping. They have taken
seven men and cook up to the camp
and expect to be busy on the job for at
least two weeks. There is good pros
pect for the mine to change hands if the
sampling proves satisfactory. The sam
plies will be run at the Sherwood samp-
ping works i'll Yerington.
The old Rockland mine has produced
several hundred thousand dollars in gold
in the past and ought to be still turning
out the yellow metal, as it is a good lit
tie mine. Several years ago large mill
was put up on the property--a roller
plant-but il did not handle the ore sue
cessfully Before this mill was con-
structed the ore from the mine was being
handled in little stamp mill and
bar of bullion valued at 81, 500 to -, 500
was being shipped from Yerington every
month. The ore in the mine will aver
age, likely, SIS per ton, and there are
small pay y-streaks in the mine which will
run up into the thousands.

BRIDGEPORT TO SAN
FRANCISCO "a HOURS

The Bridgeport Chronicle Union, in
commenting OH the visit of Traffic Man
ager Fraser, of the Nevada Copper Belt
road, and l.. Little, who is to put all
automobile line on from Hudson to
Bridgeport, Bodie, Masonic and other
points south, SAYS
With this new service you can go from
Bridgeport to San Francisco in Is hours;
leaving Mono's capital in the morning,
Hudson at 1:35 p. III. and arrive at the
Bay city at s the next morning. Re.
turning, leave San Francisco at 2 p. m,
arrive at Hudson 1926 a. m, and arrive
in Bridgeport at $3.50 p III. That's the
service i'll connection with the Nevada
Copper Belt railroad.
This will prove of great benefit to the
people of Mono county. They can make
a trip to San Francisco now in three
days instead of five. 1t will mean that
a visit to Reno will take but two days
instead of four, as formerly. 1t will
mean, more than all, that outsiders can
get to Bridgeport now without the dis
comfort or inconvenience of stage travel.
The Copper Belt people are out after
the freight and passenger business of the
southern country and will make it an
object to the people there to patronize
this road.
While the freight rates from San
Francisco or Sacramento to Minden are
50. 90 per ton lower than to Hudson, Su-
perintendent Frazier figures that team
freight from the latter place to Mono
county points will be S5 per ton cheaper,
as there is saving of about so miles
in travel OH the Hudson route over

How to Vote.

The question has been brought up as
to whether or not electors at the next
city election can vote for councilmen
outside of their own (the elector s.
wards. In looking over the. law grant
ing a charter TO the City of Yerington
we are inclined to think that
it is the privilege of all cleo
tors to vote for two councilmen in each
ward There seems to be no good
reason why this should not be done, al
though it is a departure from previous
custom. There are two wards in Yer
ington and two councilmen from each
ward. There will be polling place in
each ward, and those who live in that
ward vote at those poles, but, accord
ing to the law, they may vote for two
councilnen in the other ward. This
will give every elector a chance to vote
for all four councilmen in the city
election

Judge Langan held court in DAYTON
last week Thursday, Friday and Satur-

The first case set was that of Cassi-
nelli VS.. Ventura, with the case of Ber-
Cassin~ll Iii failed to appear, and after
continuing his case until p. nj. on the
10Th it was set to follow the Bernard
case, and the latter case was taken mp.
This case was handled BY Willis and
Green for the plaintiff and H. /. Moore
for the plaintiffs. This case occupied
the attention of the court until Tuesday
noon of this week, when the final argu-
ment was completed. The court took
the case under advisement and a decis-
ion may be expected next week.
The Cassnelli case was then taken up
with Alf Chartz for the plaintiff and
Mack and Green for the defendants.
This case occupied the courts attention
this entire week. The suit is regarding
a dam that was built to furnish water to
the ranches of both parties, but which
Cassinelli claims has damaged his prop
erty. A decision in this case will be
forthcoming next week.
Several estate matters were taken up
and disposed of.

FOR
SMITH VALLEY

]. W. O'Banion, who has resided off
and on in Smith Valley for many wears,
and who now owns the Kinds Hot
Springs property, was i'll town this week,
and spoke very optimistically of the fu-
ture of that great section of agricultural
country.
Mr.. O Banion has taken an option on
the Plymouth Company's property in
Smith Valley and is mapping out plan
to colonize this ground. The property
consists of the old Rivers ranch, the
Burbank ranch and the old Hutson and
Baldwin ranches, and comprises several
hundred acres of the finest ground in
Smith Valley, well watered and great
deal of it under cultivation.
1t is the intention of Mr.. O'Banion
and his associates to cut these ranches up
into small tracts-from 20 to 90 acres
and sell to home seekers on reasonable
terms. Such land as is to be disposed
of would bring from $50 to $3.50 an
acre in Oregon, Washington, Idaho and
Ndliloi MA, put Cdll DC puICHdS6u TlSHt
now for $50 to 500 per acre, and OH
easy terms.
Smith Valley will some day, in the
not far distant future, be one of the
garden spots of Nevada. While there is
a good supply of water for irrigation
purposes to be secured out of the Walker
River, it has been demonstrated that
artesian wells can be obtained at almost
any place in Smith Valley, and this will
probably be the source of irrigation wa
ter for many small farmers. Inside OF
couple of years the population of Smith
Valley will be doubled, and pleasant lit
tie homes will dot the green fields of
alfalfa and grain.

various intermediate levels as the work
is continued to the south. 1t is be-
lieved, likewise, that the ore body will
be opened for from seven hundred
to one thousand feet i'll length.
Sinking is also going on from the $50
foot level and the Wine is i'll very high

pect the same satisfactory results on the
$50 level when the drift on that level is
extended far enough to the south.
There is a streak of high grade ore on
the 100 foot level, Is inches in width
which will range from II to 20 per cent
