EAST SIDE SHOWING UP
SOME RATTlING Big
PROPOSITIONS

The Times has. on more than one
occasion. called the attention OF in
vestors TO the fact that the eastern
section OF this district is deserving
OF notice
There are several properties and nu
mcrous prospects from two To ten
miles east of Ycrington that are going
Ia make good with sufficient develop
mcnt work done on them.
Among these is the property OF
James Timon and George Anderson.
some eight miles east and a little
north OF Ycrington This property
consists OF six claims. known a. the
Mohawk No | and No. ,. Big Chief,
Wonder and Homcstakc No. ! and
No. ,. The claims were located some
time ago and some work has been
done on them The country in that
section seems to be network oi par
allel ledges having a northeast and
southwest course. The mineral zone
i fully mile wide and the formation
is lime, birdseyc porphyry and iron.
On the Timou and Anderson ground
the groupings have been traced tor
two miles, and the ground has been
prospected with open cuts for dis
tancc OF 1000 feet On the Big Chief
a shaft has been sunk on the ledge
to a depth OF 50 feet in oxide ore. \
l00-lb. sample OF the ore from the
bottom oi this shaft was recently
taken to the smelter at Thompson and
the returns showed it to carry copper
values to the extent Of . per cent.
On the Mohawk ! and ,, where
work is now being done, some very
good ore is being encountered at a
depth OF only few feet Samples OF
this ore sent to Denver for assay
show it to carry $500 in gold, s. in
silver and o,S per cent copper.
The property is only about six
miles from Mason station on the man
line OF the Southern Pacific, and the
haul from the mine to the railroad is
all down hill.
Mr. Timon is veteran miner and
prospector and has followed the bus
mess for the past forty years lie has

Considerable activity is being dis
played in the district and stimulated
by the success Of the Nevada Deep
Mines Co Old properties are being
reopened and new ones found. Care
ful prospecting with the pan as pur
sued in Goldheld and Southern Ne
vada has disclosed rich veins and ore
shoots on the surface never suspected
before One OF these veins found on
the Star of the West claim, which adj
joins the Nevada Deep Mines on the
east, is from Is inches to two feet in
width, with an ore shoot several hun
dred feet in length and contains ore
from $50 to $1,000 per ton A few tons
milled from the surface produced be
tween $4,000 and $4,000 in bullion in
three days This was entirely new
vein and never had a pick stuck in it
before
The Pier Gold Mining Co. acquired
the claims adjoining the Star of the
West to the east and is sinking joint
shaft on the line between two known
rich veins This two-compartment
shaft is now down 100 feet with
ten-loot sump and crosscutting is now
IN progress to catch both of the veins
exposed on the surface The Pier Co
is local concern recently incorpor-
ated by Gurney Gordon. Clyde Car
rett and H. c. Cutler, all we'll known
mining men who had been in Nevada
Tor a number OF years and connected
With a number of successful proper
ties Fifty thousand shares OF the
treasury stock was. placed locally at
cents per share to cover the cost of
this work The property is thor
oughlY equipped with a 30-horsepower
electric hoist, blacksmith shop, head
frame and everything necessary for
economical work The power line of
the Truckcc River General Electric
Co. crosses the property and cheap

Quite recently float has been found
IN the heart of this district running
from $20,0o0 to $5o,00o per ton The
ncws OF its discovery has been kept
secret for business reasons, but when
t is generally known considerable of
1 rush is expected.
This is a very interesting district
from a legitimate mining standpoint,
and Judging from the amount of gold
IN the surface dirt and gulches the
locating OF extensive ore shoots
should be comparatively easy for the
modern prospector The altitude is
$500 feet summers cool and winter
easy Its accessibility. notwithStand

WILSON AND BRYAN.

What will result as the natural out
come of the efforts made by the en-
emies of William jennings Bryan to
lave him ignored by Governor Wilson
when he became president seems to be
the inevitable appointment of Bryan IS
secretary of state under the new ad-
ministration.
Though all statements relative to
the matter are conjectures, it seems
that Governor Wilson will undoubtedly
offer the portfolio of secretary OF
state to the Nebraskan And this is as
it should be. The American people
like a fair deal Bryan has been as
sailed ever since the democratic vic
tory last November.
1t is gratifying to know that these
attacks on the character of the man
who is undoubtedly the cleanest and
biggest man in American politics have
had no effect on Governor Wilson. II
is limited with more than ordinary in
dication of truth that Governor Wilson
has practically decided to offer NJ
Bryan the position which he SO justly
merits and for which he has Superior
qualifications. Whether he accepts Z
or not does not matter, if he only has
the place offered him and the indica.
ton of confidence which such actor
would mark.
1t was a notable feature of tbs
campaign from it's inception to the
close that every effort was made t,
estrange Wilson and Bryan. Though
ii is inconceiyable that the enemies
Mr.. Bryan are anything like as mum
erous as his friends, nevertheless thes,
enemies have had way of fightin.
him most strenuously. Consequent,
their efforts have been credited witt
more force, perhaps, than was normal
At any rate it is pleasing to all tru,
Democrats to know that Mr.. Bryan il

the new president and to be signal,
honored. The Nebraskan richly de
serves this confidence. He has Tough

AND WHEREFORE Do THE POOR
COMPLAIN?

And wherefore do the poor COM
plain" The rich man asked of ME,
Come walk abroad with me" | said
And l will answer thee"
A damage suit, instituted by fifty
year-old white woman, whose hip was
broken by a fall in a Fulton county
mill brings out the fact that for her
days service in the mill she earned
the magnificent sum of seventy-five
cents.
If she worked six days in a week
her pay envelope brought her the rich
return of $3.50.
Mill owners, and frequently that in
cludes men who pose as Christian
philanthropists, all too often earn
their large dividends through the
meagreness of the pay they give to
the hands at the looms and other
work.
All over the country the evidences
of this are found We are not the only
guilty ones here in the South The
strikers at Lawrence, Mass, revealed
that $3.50 to Sc or 81 a week was about
all that a man or woman could hope
for return for a weeks toll Remem-
boring the existing prices of the plain
est food, one wonders how they keep
body and soul together.
At recent conference of social
workers it was declared that the down
fall of vast host of women in this
country was not due to innate wicked
ness on their part, to any natural de-
sire to lead immoral lives. Their i'm
morality came as the result of poor
pay Their employers in stores and in
mills grew rich while they faced star
walton. Their moral ruin lay largely
at the door of those who waxed fat off
eXorbitant profits resulting from under
paid labor
The profession of Christianity that is
coupled with lean envelopes for the
mill hands and the store girls is a
mighty poor substitute for the real
article

PROFITLESS SCRUBS IN POULTRY
ATLANTA Journal.)


1T costs no more to keep good
chicken than poor scrub"
This is not proverb handed down
for moral guidance from some ancient
sage, though it well might serve that
purpose; it is one of the thoroughly
practical remarks from a series of
daily lectures by Prof, Leroy at the
poultry show The fact that the
farmers of Georgia are not realizing
their full opportunities in the sale of
poultry and poultry products is due
chiefly to lack of foresight and
scientific methods. Every farm has it's
chickens but not enough farms have
the kind of chickens that are really
worth while.
The people of Georgia spend every
year hundreds of thousands of dollars
for poultry and eggs in distant sec
tons This becomes an amazing cir
cumstance when one reflects that no
part of the country is more richly
favored by nature for poultry raising
than Georgia is. The anomalous stu
alto will be reversed, and we shall be-
come exporters instead of importers,
when the ideas which are being ad-
ranced ard the methods which are
being demonstrated at the Southern
International Poultry show find wider
acceptance among the farmers of the
State, Prof, Jones pertinently asks
why not get all you can out Of
poultry while you are at it? A good
breed of chickens will more than JUS
t!fy the extra outlay of starting 1t
costs no more to keep good chicken
than poor scrub
1t is TO be hoped that the spirit of
progress which is now astir in ever
phase of Georgia's rural life will sooa
ma"if-st itself in the field of poultry
production.

JUDGE CRISP AGAIN IN TRAINING

Judge Crisp is now in training at
Washington for the duties that will
come upon him when he takes his seat
as a Congressman in April, at the
extra session. To be sure, it is but
continuation of the training he has
been receiving for year or more past,
but that makes it none the less valu-
able to the new representative from
Georgia's Third district
1t is doubtful if any new member OF
the next House will be as well equipp-
ed in many ways as Judge Crisp win
be. His experience some years ago as
House Parliamentarian, when his faith
err was Speaker, followed by his brief
term as a member of the House, and
now his renewed experience as the
Speakers right-hand man, gives him
peculiarly valuable endowment that
is denied to other men just entering on
a congressional career
IL is lOi lulldlSJ IhuCCuJ lhdC Tic
Third district has a well-seasoned man
as it's representative in the approach
/ ing Congress. That Congress is charg-
ed with some highly important duties
to the people at large. Judge Crisp's
acquaintance with the methods of the
House in the revision of the tariff and
| in the handling of other grave prob
lens will stand him in good stead
now. Instead of entering on his duties
in a green, raw state, with everything
| to learn, he assumes them with the
spirit of confidence that can only be
obtained through just such an intimate
acquaintance with the procedure of
Congress, as we'll as with its leaders,
as he has been so fortunate as to OBJ
tain The great national Democratic
victory in November, with its attend
ant extra session of Congress for the
enactment of Democratic reform
measures, makes it highly gratifying
that the Third Georgia district select
ed Judge Crisp in it's primary some
months ago The democracy of the
district can congratulate itself on its
judicious selection and look forward
with satisfaction to highly honor
able career from it's new representa-
tive at the national capital.
