GOLD CREEK NINE
WILL Be A PRODUCER

We are informed by Mr.. Andy
Burke that the formation of the
Gold Creek Iron Mountain Mining
and Milling Company has been
perfected and that Salt Lake and
Canadian capitalists are heavily
interested. Mr.. Burk and Mr..
Charles Skaggs. however. have
retained substantial holdings and
will have charge Of the erection and
operation of the plant at Gold
Creek.
The purchase Of lumber for i'm
mediate delivery for oarding
house, bunk houses and mill has
been made from local dealers.
The machinery. pipe line
scrapers, wagCrs end other &c.
cessories will be shipped from Salt
Lake on or about the first Of April.
The mill building must be ready
for the machinery not later than
the 10th OF April.
The mill is the Dyke system,
consisting of a crusher and tables
of fifty tors daily capacity. Ar
proximately forty men will be
employed and the output of tie
mill will be ten tons daily in con-
centrates, the value of which is
estimated to he 500 per ton. The
hauling of the concentrates will
require three ten-ho rse teams.
This enterprise will place around
$4,000 per month in the channels
of trade in Elko. The opening
of the Gold Creek mines will give
an impetus to the mining industry
in this county and its Importance
to Elko cannot be over estimated.
Mr.. Burke and Mr.. Skaggs, ac-
companied by MIR. A. Edwards and
wife left this morning fer tie
mines. All were in high spirits
and we'll pleased with their future
prospects. The capacity of the
plant will be increased as the
development of the mines warrants.
Mr.. Burke and Mr.. Skaggs assured
us that they had ample funds at
their command for developing the
mine on a large scale.

THE incorporation QUESTION

The incorporation question is
still the bone Of contention on the
streets. Reports of what Mr..
Blank said to Mr.. Doe for and
against Incorporation are flying
about and intensifying the feeling
on a situation that should be met
fairly and squarely by every
citizen of the town. There is no
need of any citizen going into
Mysteries and condemning any
other citizen for his stand for or
against the incorporation PROPOSE
tion. ~
As is we'll known the wri err has
been consistent advocate of a
sewer system for the last two or
three years. He has urged it in
season and out of season and still
urg IS it. 1t is the one great need
Of the town and there should be-.
no unrecessai DELAY: in INSTALL ngs
it. If this can not Gc cone withl
o tthe Incorporation of tbs town as
a city of the third class. the sooner,
it is incorporated the better it will
be COR the heal;h of the people.
If a sewer system can be installed;
without incorporating, then it
might be we'll IL pit off incorr-
Grating until such time as the
present bonded indtb edness of the
town for school purposes is
materially reduced or wiped out

As the matter now stands. we
favor incorporation as the means
Of procuring a sewer system; but
if that can be obtained without the
expense of city government, we
believe it would he wise to delay

THOSE TERRIBLE MOSQUITOES

Here is a problem all the way
from a little town called Forks
vile, in Louisiana. which CORE
spondent thinks might catch some
readers mapping. He says:
The following item recently
appeared in report of conditions
in this state:
" The farmer in Louisiana say
they have never seen the mosquito
pest so bad as it is this season, and
in many of the northwestern
parishes they are killing cattle.
Prof. Budwinkle says that there is
always abou: the same crop of
moquitoes to the acre in that
section and that the number does
notvary more than l0per cent in
any year.
Nov" says our correspondent,
suppose that the increase in
mosquitoes were even as high as rs
per cent. what would be the prob
able increase in the per cent of
cattle killed?"- New York Sun.

ENDLESS CHAIN OF REQ TAPE

A Washington dispatch of the
9th says:
While the customs service i.
being rehabilitated there is a dis
position at the Treasury Depart
ment to clip off red tape wherever
possible. The abuse has grown up
through many years and Secretary
MacVeagh wants to eliminate it
and practical politics wherever he
can. A collector at a small port
in New Jersy, who has q record of
collecting fifty cents u year and
drawing $500 in salary and ex-
penses. recently was called to
account for not sending certain
documents in connection with the
payment of his salary. He made
this protest, which has been pre-
served among the archives of the
Treasury:
II was criticized because | had
failed to make an affidavit that /
had paid myself my salary. In
spite Of the fact that had sworn
in my monthly accounts that had
paid myself my salary, ! had not
sworn that ] had received the
salary which / had sworn had
paid myself. This last affidavit
cost ne 25 cents. ..
II then had to put in a voucher
for the % cents and make an
affidavit that had paid myself the
25 cents. This according to the
new ruling was accompanied by an
affidavit that had received the 25
cents I had sworn ! had paid my
self. This has started an endless
chain which threatens to lead me in
an insane asylum"

DON'T BLAME
MEXICO UNJUSTlY

A dispatch says Mexicans do not
like Americans. that the federal
troops would just as soon kill an
American rs an insurrecto.
Well, we ought to be fair. Sup
pose we had a little civil war in
Arizona. New Mexico and Texas,
and our federal troops were to
capture a detachment CT rebels
and we're to find among the
captives percentage of Mexicans
who had sto len across the line to
help make war upon the United
States. What would happen then?
No Americans have any business
across the line fighting for either
one side or the other and none ever
went over for that purpose who
did not understand perfectly their
almost inevitable fate in case of
capture. They are entitled to
little sympathy from this side, for
they went not only to fight over
friendly to us, but to do what
might eventually involve their own
country in war. We must not ex-
poet Mexico to do what we would
not un der the same circumstances.

SOUTH DAKOTA TOWN Moves


Lamro. q town Of 1000 iphabi-
tants and several hundred houses,
was put on wheels the other day
and moved over to$Winner. where,
as the result Of bitter county seat
war and agreement between the
two towns il was consolidated with
Winner and as a town ceased
wholly to exist. Store buildings,
with their valuable contents, were
moved intsct. Banks. with their
cash in vaults, were put on wheels
and made the trip across the
prairie. Without disturbing the
officials, the county court house
was hitched to two of the largest
traction engines ever built and
was hauled from Lamro over to
Winner, where it was placed on a
foundation previously prepared
for it. The Lamro Hotel, drawn
by IL teams of horses, made the
trip without SO much as ceasing
business during a single meal.
Lamro was unique in being a
town built by Indians for the use
ut white men. Indians promoted
the town. sold lots. opened business
houses, and finally elected them
selves 10 Office. Indians were
elected to the Offices Of county
commissioner. county Judge, county
treasurer and to all other places.
However, the Indians were at
last outgeneraled by the white men.
The red men were familiar with
many things, but they did not
understand the ways Of the Ameri-
can railroad builders. Lamro was
promoted while the railroad was
still 20 miles away, hnt headed in
that direction. In fact, the survey
ran through the spot upon which
the Indians built the town. But
the railraod made a detour just
great enough to put Laluro off the
line of road and the white men
built the town of Winner on the
road and only three miles from
the Indian town. In the meantime
Lamro had grown rapidly and was
a town of 1000 people. with all
sorts Of business houses.
The people living at Winner
organized county seat fight ard
car ried the matter before the
vJters at the November election.
By agreement between the two
towns the loser agreed to abandon
its site and move bodily over to
the winner Of the fight. True to
it's name. Winner won out by a
small vote, and the very next day
arrangements were begun for the
house moving.

SMALL FARMS THE THINGS

The demand for better farming
IN America is natural. FIR ON every
part of the country comes the cry
for inprhved agriculture. How to
increase your exports, how to keep
young men and women in the
country and how TO give greater
profits to the farmer are questions
which leading citizens everywhere
are trying to solve, says Irrigation
Age.
1t is only within the past few
years that we have given much
heed to the futu e. We have take n
it for granted that our resources
were unlimited and inexhaustible.
We have opened wide our doors to
the people of the Old World and
rudely awakened to the fact that
the day of free homes is about
gene. The millions of acres of
public domain stretching from the
Mississippi valley to the Pacific
coast are gone, except the treeless
plains, the sagebrush deserts and
the rugged mountains.
Land values in the humid States
have increased so enormously that
the man of small means finds it
yearly more difficult to secure a
foothold. The question of finding
homes for our people is not one of
the future it is paramount
question today.
The true solution, land in fact
the only solution, of this important
problem, which has become both
political and social in it's aspects,
is contained in the theory of small
farms and intensive agriculture hy
means Of irrigation. BY turning
the large places into little tracts,
homes are made for many more
tillers Of the soil. BY incre asing
production ny means of better
farming, we meet the demand for
larger exports. BY placing agri-
culture on more attractive and
profitable basis we arouse the
interest Of young people and hold
them in The country. Surely such
results are worthy the best efforts
of the farming class. and the
encouragement of all other classes.
