over Member of Board Fail to Agree

New County Commissioners and Hold
over Member Of Board Fail to Agree
When d. O. Mcdonald and Michael
Cohen took their seats as new members
OF the Board of County Commissioners
of White Pine County last week. signs
OF friction between them and @. G.
Caperton were evidenced Immediately
and q stormy session was had.
The trouble started when Mcdonald
was named chairman of the board by
Cohen and himself. Caperton, being
the holdover member, had expected to
be named chairman and spoke a piece
Of his mind. He was told by Mcdonald
that had he conducted himself different.
ly In the past he no doubt would have
been made chairman. Mcdonald then
charged that Caperton had allowed bills
that were unjust to be sanctioned by the
Commissioners last year and stated that
he wished to notify Caperton at the
start that similar bills would not be al
lowed this year.

port that there are probably 100 cases of
smallpox in that city, while people COM
ing from there claim that there are at
least 300 cases.
In order to determine whether the
ore bodies of the Goldheld Consolidated
Mines extend down to any great depth
and to ascertain the values below the
levels now being worked, it has been de-
cided to explore the lower lodges by
means of diamond drills. The explora-
ton work win be commenced from the
lower levels of the Grizzly Bear and
Clermont mines.
Fire and an explosion which started
from the ignition OF a powder thawing
apparatus destroyed the hosting plant
and building at the Jumping Jack shaft
at Manhattan at IL o'clock last Sunday
night and caused a cessation of UNDER
ground operations on the Brady lease on
the Jumping Jack and the Mushett-
Wittenberg lease on the Big Pine, both
OF which were working through this
shaft. A new hoist will be installed i'm
mediately and operations resumed as

Just The Plain Truth
Is Plenty Good Enough

Nevada newspapers with but . very
few exceptions are taking the same
attitude in regard to the new Rochester
canyon district as they did at the time
Jarbridge was in the throes of the initial
boom, says the Salt Lake Tribune.
No papers any where in the country
laughed louder over or condemned more
roundly the old statement about Jar
bridge 10 the effect that $23, 900, 900
worth of ore had been put in sight in
one shallow shaft than the papers
Of Nevada. aud a number are already
calling attention to the fact that noth-
ing but the truth about Rochester can.
yon will satisfy Nevada.
1t seems peculiar that Nevada, the
home snd cradle Of artistic mine BOOM
ing, should object to overestimating and
bubbling over accounts of new dis.
coveries. but il is a healthy sign. and il
shows that Nevada wants nothing but
legitimate mining from now on. The
salvation of the State depends upon
this.

ROCHESTER A GROWING CAMP
Two Towns Started With 500 People
and Lively Times Reported


"On to Rochester" is the principal
topic of conversation among local min
ing men, says the Salt Lake Telegram.
Probably no camp has ever been dis.
covered under similar conditions tina
has attracted SO much attention in sc
short a time. Late reports from the
camp are to the effect that there is al
least 900 people in the two towns in the
canyon and thai people are coming and
going all the time. The first town i:
East Rochester, al the base of the
mountain where the first rich strike was
made. 1t is within a few hundred feet
OF the mines and is handiest for work,
men. Probably half of the 600 popula.
ton is located here, which is built ur
with rents and small shacks.
West Rochester has the better build
iugs and is an ideal location for the
town. 1t is situated two miles down
the canyon from the mines aud there il
asRood running spring of water which
supplies the town. Here they have
boarding and rooming houses, store
barber and butcher shop and four sa-
looms Meals are furnished for 90 cents
and beds are 70 cents a night. Business
is real brisk in this portion of the camp
aud a number of people are living here
that are not interested or engaged in
mining.
Some rich finds have beer reported in
this camp. aud it Is the generally ac-
cepted opinion that there is an immense
tonnage OF ore that will show values of
from SIS TO s25 to.Ythe ton. Tie ore
that ieasers have sacked aud are ship.
ping has thus far given returns of from
$50 to $50 to the ton. The principal
valne in this ore is silver. with small
gold values. The ore makes in large
dykes of pebbled quartzite, and whether
or not it makes TO great depth is yet
TO be determined. While the develop
ment to date has shown very satisfactory
results in ore exposures, and some of
the big mining operators of Utah and
Nevada have taken substantial interests.
it is yet to be proven whether or not
theore deposits are large enough to per-
init of mining on a large scale for a num-
Der of years. as many believe it will.
Lovelocks is the principal point of
supply and Quitting. 1t Is a little more
than 30 miles from Rochester aud there
are a number of automobiles taking
people in at the rate of $40 per the
round trip. The nearest railroad station
is at Oreana, which is from 10 to IL
miles from the mines. A number of
freighting teams are hauling in sup.
pliesfrom this point and arrangements
are, being made to establish a stage line.
As yet no hotel or eating house accom-
mOSstions have been put in at Oreana.
bat these are TO be established at once.
