BALLOT MISSING
FROM TUSCARORA

In the counting Of the Elko
County ballots. in the election
contest case. some troubles are
arising. 1t will be remembered
as published in the News, a short
time ago the ballots were not
particularly well guarded in the
court house at Elko and lay for a
Icing time in q pile in a conner of a
room. Whether the ballots had
been tempered with or MT is not
known. In the counting of the
Tuscorara ballots a few days ago
it was shown that the election
returns called for total Of LOG
ballots being used from the ballot
books. Of this lumber three
were spoiled aid cancelled. This
should have left 103 ballots to he
counted but upon checking the
ballots there were only 1O2, one
ballot being missing. What effect
this loss will have upon the count
is net known. The precinct was
carried by Baker and Joseph. -

GOVERNMENT HELPS
IN LOCATING COAL

The government of Nova Scotia
adopts the liberal policy of keeping
and operating seven core drills
for the benefit of the mining COM
munity. During the year 1910
five drills of which three were
diamond drills and two calyx
drills, were kept in commission.
The total footage drilled was g.
222 feet. OF this footage $500
feet were done by diamond drill.
In all fifteen holes were sunk, and
in every ease coal was the mineral
sought. The strata drilled
included sandstores. shales, con-
glomerates, clays and grits of
many varying degrees Of hardness,
and of every kind of texture.
The average cost per foot of
dian ond drilling is reported at 90
cents; whilst the corresponding
figure for the cayx is $l.44. The
deepest hole bored was surk with
a Pinch diamond drill. The depth
attained in this instance was 1,21T
feet; the cost per foot, 2 cents;
the highest rate Of boring per
hour, 5 feet, 3 riches, and the
average footage per hour 1.2 feet.
1t is interesting to compare these
figures with the performance nf an
6-inch clayX. The calyx hole was
sunk to $50 feet. The highest
rate OF boring per hour was 6
feet, 4 inches; the average footage
per hour, IL feet; cost per foot.
81 IA.
1t is not intrn led to institute
comparisons between the two types
of drills. The figures above are
quoted merely because Of their
intrinsic interest. Incidentally it
is nOte- worthy that the coal
operators are the only persons
securing the drills. 1t is surely
worth while for a few of the gold
mine operators to put in a claim.
Under proper control the diamond
drill, which probably would do
better work in the gold measures,
could be used to great advantage.

not decide to do this, the jolly crew OF

The recent motor boatists' uprising
against Uncle Sam about the wharf al
Fort Hunt being unlighted has not SUD-
sided by any means. Prominent men IN
local boating circles are now interested
in the question, and promise that the oiu
pier will either be entirely removed De-
fore next season or a suitable light IN
stalled to mark it's dangerous position.
Corinthians, canoeists and capital yachts-
men are all voicing their opinions on the
matter, and claim that they OBJECT 10
paying personal taxes on their outnts
when the government makes small pro-
vision for their safety when navigating
at night.
While that argument sounds well
enough, and it is agreed by all that the
pier should be lighted at night. it must
be remembered that the Potomac river
has not been neglected by any means by
the lighthouse board, and that its buoy
age is up to the standard of any inland
waterway in the country. When navigat-
ing on the river at night, one is never out
of sight of beacon or light of some sort.
, and such things as piers and distractions
of that nature are not always within the
| Jurisdiction of the lighthouse authorities.
1t is thought that the Fort Hunt pier
| NAV be in the hands of army officers,
who will probably act on any reasonable
! appeal from the boating public.

after her arrival here. Her design Is
quite departure from the modern raised
deck type of cruiser. the old-fashioned
trunk cabin being used for the sake or

heavily constructed and shows wonder
full cleanness when driven at full speed
into a choppy sea. one of the require
ments of the specifications reading that
she be capable of an off-sounding race
such as the classic Bermuda or the
