PLACER MINING

The finding OF the big nugget in
the gulch last week has caused re-
newed interest III the placer mines oi
Manhattan. says the Post, and sew
eral new leases may be started at an
early date. 1t is not an uncommon
thing for large nuggets to be recov'
cred in the gulch. 1t often happens
that chunks OF gold OF high value are
found and those finding same, pre-
sumably deeming it an occurrence 'i
no special importance, seldom bring
the nuggets uptown and display them.
Mining men who are acquainted
with placer operations here and who
have kept tab on the bullion ship
ments, believe that the placer output
oi 1913 will equal il not surpass the
1912 production. which was estimated
at 100000. Many OF the operators
owning the ground they operate, do
not desire to make public the amount
of gold extracted or their bullion
shipments, and for this reason it Is
not possible to learn the exact
amount sent out. However, the pia-
Ger mines have been steady producers
Tor years, and there are many acres
Of ground in the gulch yet to be
worked that undoubtedly will prove
very prolific.

Something About NeW|ands
Caucus and The |. v v.

put through the House in about a
week-a record to which the DEM D
Gratis may justly point with pride.
This achievement in legislative et-
fciency was due proximately to the
caucus-which also functioned 50
satisfactorily in both houses in re-
,pect to the tariff bill. Having devised
so effective machine, we trust the
Democrats will not be bluffed into
giving it up. True it forecloses de-
bate in the House; but the House Is
no place for debate anyway.
1t is an ancient stratagem at Wash
ington. when the passage of any
measure seems foregone conclu-
sion, to shift attack from the meas
ure itself to the method by which
it is passing. When standpat sena-
tors found they could not defeat the
Roosevelt program for government
regulation on railroad rates. they
shouted that Congress was being Sub
jugated by the president. When the
passage of the Underwood tariff bill
was assured protectionists onslaught
turned to the caucus.

The Democratic Caucus

OF late a great deal has been said
by the Republican press about the
dreadful Democratic caucus" If tho
people of the State should believe all
the partisan comments OF the minor
ity party press they would have an
awful nightmare. In the last analy-
sis it is merely an attempt by the
obstructionists to divert the minds
Of the people from the virtue of the
legislation proposed by the present
administration at Washington. Next
year the Republican spellbinders will
go around the State of Nevada howl
ing about the caucus methods of tha
Democratic party during the present
special session. There's nothing to
it!
In speaking of the caucus methods
employed by the Democratic party
during the present session. The Sat
urday Evening Post. one of the most
widely read publications in the coun-

THE Glass-Owen bill is the most
important piece of new Legislation

RICH ORE
DISCOVERY

A discovery of ore that is said to
be of excellent promise has been
made in the Gold Mountain district,
near the old camp of Tokop and not
far from the Royal Flush property
The find is on property owned by
Mrs. Anderson and some of the ore
that has been brought to Goldheld is
full of free gold and APPARENTLY is very
rich. The size of the deposit has not
yet been determined but persons who
have seen the ledge state that it has
every appearance of being an import
ant strike
Some of the richest specimens Of
gold ore ever seen in this part of the
country were taken from the surface
of the Royal Flush claim several
years ago, assays being obtained
that ran over 100000 per ton. This
rich material was not found at depth
but the main vein on this property
has been opened to depth of 400
feet and shows quantities of good
milling ore. The Gold Mountain dis
trlct has produced quantities of ship
ping ore and many years ago the
product OF the Rattlesnake, Oriental
and other properties was shipped out
on mule back, freighted to the coast
and sent as ballast to the smelters
in Wales for treatment.

During the thunderstorm which pre-

struck the eastern tower of the Ho-

though fortunately no considerable
damage resulted beyond the tearing
away of portions of the slate roof
ing.
The bolt struck the flagstaff at it's
base and, dividing, ran down the
four corners OF the square tower,
shelling off the slate, which fell il.
fakes to the street The concussiol
was felt all over the city.
During the prevailing storm a bolt
struck the wires leading into the
College street home of w. j. Thornton
caught fire, and while the damage re-
sulting was inoonsiderable the fire
was called to the scene
and extinguished the incipient blaze.
A downpour of rain followed the
thunder storm, and while no serious
injury to the cotton crop has resulted
as yet, farmers would be glad of a
cessation of rain while the fields are
white with open cotton.

TRAIN SPEEDING
AGAIN COMMANDS
ATTENTION HERE
ON VEXED PROBLEM
Plans May Be Adopted at
Next Meeting

The Americus council had before il
quite recently the matter of regulating
the speed of trains at grade crossings
il the city limits and an ordinanct
suggesting a speed of six miles an
hour was suggested. However final
action in the premises was not taken
al the time.
The suggestion of having the rail-
roads to put in an automatic bell sys-
tenn was advocated by some of the
oouncilmen. Doubtless at the council
meeting tomorrow night some action
looking to the safety Of the public may
be taken.
The Thomasville city council is now
considering an ordinance introduced
last week setting a speed of five miles
an hour for all trains entering that
city.
There are several railroad crossings
in that city which are dangerous, es-
pecially to automobilists and there
have been some narrow escapes by the
occupants of cars In one instance
which happened lately a lady only es-
capped being run over by having the
presence of mind to turn her car into
q ditch and getting off with a few
bruises.
Owing to deep cuts or curves in
the road it is hard to see the trains as
they come up and the railroad authori
ties have been requested to put In
warnings to give the signal when a
train is approaching.

today and all paths led to the red

Travers Jerome had promised to ap-

hearing on a charge of gambling.
Jerome was released last week un

state of affairs developed of NicoPs
aiding the New York forces in get

Jerome's arrest as an outrage, volun-

to prosecute.
