SILVER UP TO So ~ CENTS
With Silver About 60 Cents Many
Small Eureka Mines Can Be
Operated Probably

A telephone message received from
Palisade' yesterday announced that sill
YER was quoted in the New York market
on February l at $50 cents am ounce.
This is the highest point attained by
the white metal for over foul years,
or since November, 1907.
This means q great stimulus to the
mining industry throughout Nevada.
With silver holding around the IS to
so cent mark, old silver mines which
have long been dormant can be opened
and operated profitably. and It would
cause thousands Of dollars to be spent
prospecting for silver ore bodies in
meritorious groups in the big silver
camps of the State.
Should silver hold at or above its pre-.
sent price, there are many small prop
critics in this and adjoining districts
which can be made to give very fair re-
turns for all work aud means expended.
and with the early resumption of rail-
way transportation out of Eureka over
the Eureka & Palisade Railway. it looks
as If there would shortly be a renewal of
of activity in many small mining prop
critics in and around Eureka that have
for years lain dormant.

Trouble At Duckwater

Attorney Anthony Zurich has gone TO
Duck water in Nye County, to appear
before Justice Irwin in a case brought
by VIM Ferguson against Tom Aired,
Joseph and Louis Cazier for driving
cattle from their range. The cattle
were being run under a lease by Fergu-
son to other parties, when Ferguson
attempted to take forcible possession of
them. The difficulty it seems is in the
nature of a neighborhood row. and will
probably be settled without an appeal

District Attorney Issues Statement Show
ing State Police Are Not Required
Eureka. Nevada, Januars 30, 1912.
EDITOR SENTINEL: In an item in your
paper under the heading, Gambling
IN Eureka County," it is stated as
follows: When questioned regarding
the above statement, Sheriff Mshoney
said he had recently been informed by
District Attorney MoParlin that q
letter had been received from the Cover
nor aud Attorney General stating that
considerable gambling was reported to
be going on in Eureka County, and that
unless the Sheriff made an effort to stop
it. the State Police would take action.
1 called the attention of the Sheriff 10
the statement. aud he informed me that
your paper had reported him correctly,
bat, that after he had refreshed his rec
election. his statement to the paper
was q mistake.
l nave never received a letter from
the Governor, nor from the Attorney
| General to the effect as above stated,
aud, / rave never told any one that
received such a letter. l had a CONVEX.
sation with the Sheriff in regard to the
Gambling law on the first of this year,
after the receipt by me OF a message
from the Attorney General to the effect
that on inc after January 1. 1912. slot
machines were gambling devices. In
the purse of this conversation, the
Sheriff told me that there were no gamb-
ling implements, including slot ma
chimes, in use in this county, and that
there were no gambling games of any
kind going on. And, l believe him.
So far as l eau learn, there is no
necessity for the sending Of such a let
ter as described above. This county is
as free from gambling, especially open
gambling, as any other in this State.
and shall continue to be so, as long as
gambling is prohibited by the law of
this State. And, l believe that the sworn
officers, who should enforce that law, do
not require to be reminded Of their du.
ties In this respect. Respectfully,
T. j. McPARLIN. District Attorney.

store here, spent several days at
Elko this week on business.
Ed Thomas has recovered from
his recent severe attack of la
grippe and tonsolitis and has
started to hauling freight again
from this place to Mineral Hill.
Word has just been received
here from J. w. Ebert stating that

PALISADE Correspondence
Present Fine Weather Reported
To Be Greatly Aiding Rail-
way Construction Work
Palisade. February 2.

While a great deal of work that
IS necessary in completing the
road has been done during the
week and the general construc-
ton Of the e. & P. railroad is re-
ported most satisfactory, the
completed line has progressed
but a short distance. The pile
driver is still at work on the two
bridges just above the J. p. Raine
ranch, but they are expected to
be completed within the next few
days, and as the roadbed between
these bridges and Blackburn is
about all ready for the rails, the
completion of the line to the lat
ter place should only require
several days longer.
Two new bridges are to be put
in at Blackburn, and the pile
driver will be taken there as soon
as possible after the bridges at
Raine's are completed. A grad
ing camp was established at
Blackburn and the grading gangs
moved there this week.
Although the nights during the
week are reported to have been
pretty cold in Pine Valley, with
some frost, the weather during
the day has been all that could
be desired for rapid reconstruc-
ton work. The force of men en-
ployed on the road is being
steadily increased, and now num-
bers about 100 men.
Mr.. Sykes, of the firm of Chad
wick d Sykes, the contractors
who are rebuilding the E. & p,
was an arrival on No. 4 Wednes-
day. He is inspecting the work
SO far completed, and is reported
to be much pleased with the
progress being made.
