Salty FIRST COMMITTEE
NETS AT UNIVERSITY

Beyond the appointing of a COM
mittee of three, including George A..
Bartlett, ]. G. Scrugham and J. j.
Mullen, to formulate articles of as
sociation, the safety first committee
of nine which met Saturday after
noon at the University of Nevada
took no definite steps, says the Ca
zette Another meeting is set for
next Sunday when the final draft Of
the articles will be ready for ap-
proval.
1t was directed that the first draft
of the articles of association be sent
to each member of the committee of
nine by Tuesday, and that each indi-
vidual member note any suggestions
on his copy and return it to the SUBJ
committee as soon as possible, in or
der to put the committee into posi-
tion to make the final draft from the
tentative draft and suggestions Of
the committee members.
Committees on membership were
proposed with the suggestion that
steps be taken in this way to enlist the
o-operation of the industries of the
state, but action was deferred pend
ing the adoption of the articles of as
sociation in order that those asked to
join the safety first association might
have definite knowledge of the pur-
poses and scope of the work.

ENDORSES ACTION OF
NEVADA PRESS ASSOCIATION

The action of the Nevada Press as
sociation against the appointment of
Bert Mcintosh to the Office of Z. 5.
district attorney may or may not be
effective, but the fact remains that
the newspaper men have serious
grievance against the man. If Me
Intosh could have his way the print
ers would starve or go out of busi-
ness in this state. The News doesn t
belong to the organization, but il ven
lures the assertion that the boys will
get Bert's goat eventually; If they
fell in this instance there will be an
other day Like David Crockett s
coon, he should say don Z shoot, I'll
come down. from the perch. Never,
never have the newspaper men failed
tt get man when they went after
him as a common enemy, regardless of
personal matters.-Mason Valley

GRtATFR HUMBOLDT
DIRECTORS IN SESSION

The first meeting of the board of
directors of the Greater Humboldt
Corporation at which the water users
and land owners OF Humboldt valley
were represented, was held here last
Saturday. Unfortunately, John NJ.
kiddell, of star valley, was laid up
with rheumatism, and unable to at.
tend, so the upper end of the valley
was not represented.
1t IS intended that hereafter all
meetings of the board shall be held
in the valley, and as Winnemucca is
the most centrally located, it will
very likely be selected as the point
for the principal office, but meetings
viii be held by the directors at 9th
er points whenever it is for the inter
ests of the valley that they should be.
No change was made in the officers,
Mr.. Mcclellan being continued as
president.
1t was more than anything else a
"get together meeting, the new
members of the board needing to be
come acquainted with what had been
DONE and what should be done first,
and have time to consider how to 60
about the doing. Mr.. Anker mad some
very good suggestions to offer. that
are to be taken mp at the regular
meeting on March 3D..

BIG MINING DEAL
CLOSED AT JARBIDGE

Word reached Elko this morning
that one of tne biggest mining deals
in the experience of the camp has
just been closed at Jarbidge, whereby
Cincinnati capitalists have taken an
option on the Success, 1t, and the
the American Man. The money in
volved amounts to several hundred
thousand dollars and the plans call
for a big amount of development
work as soon as spring opens up, 80
men to he put to work as soon as the
snow will allow the work to start.
The deal has been closed by G. J..
Nelson and associates, and Mr.. Nelson
is to have the management of the
properties. This is the same group
of claims that George Wingfeld had
and threw up.
This deal means that Jarbidge will
at least come into her own and that
before snow flies next winter that
Jarbidge will be a better camp than
it was during its boom days. De-
velopments throughout the camp have
demonstrated the fact that the ore
is there in large quantities and car
ries good values at great depth A
new strike has just been made on the
Alpha group where a four-foot ledge
was cut in one of the tunnels that is
a good milling ore. On this property
ive-stamp mill is kept going day
and night and they are working three
shifts. The recent strike is being
kept quiet and it is impossible to get
the correct value of the ore, but that
it is rich there can be no Doubt

NEW EXCITEMENT
AT ROCHESTER

Excitement at Lower Rochester is
at fever heat on account of the prob
able rich find of Moritz Norden, a
prospeetor. says a special to the Jour
nal. Norden returned to camp with
the richest float thus far found in
the district, the lowest assay of which
is $6s2.l5.
The find was made within half
mile of camp close to a cliff. That
the ledge will be uncovered within
a day or two is the coneensus of
opinion of miners. News of the find
spread rapidly to Oreana and Love
lock and late into the night automo-
pile parties came In search of Nor
den.
The specimens which the prospect
or exhibited are of the Lincoln hill
variety and its thought that the
same high grade ore for which the

known will be encountered at many
places in line with the strike of the
rich Lincoln hill vein.

from New York's and Pennsylvania s
sites and is facing the Golden Gate,

and most popular walk on the grounds.

that I noticed in the Post someone

ly, it is nothing but a sand lot now,
as they all are. for none of the work

GRAND JURY IN
SESSION TODAY

Upon a roll call in the District
Court at 10 o'clock this morning, all
of the "a men drawn as grand jury
men were found to be present. Judge
Ducker stated that he would prefer
to draw the names of the II men that
will constitute the jury from a box,
as all "a were acceptable, and he had
no choice, but the statute required
that the presiding Judge make the Sc
lection. Upon asking if any were
present who wished to be excused
from service, W. c. Pitt, Moses Rein
hart, G. r. Squires, J. Sheehan, B. f..
Stoker and w. G.. Adamson asked ito
be relieved from duty The Court
then handed down to the clerk the
following list of names, who will COM
prise the grand jury for the year
1914:
John T. Waters, William Moler, C.
y Brown, b. J. Loinaz, A. F. Trous-

TO BUILD CUSTOM
Mill AND SAMPLER

few days ago articles of incor-
poration were filed with Clerk Davey
by the Winnemucea Milling & Ore
Purchasing company, with w. G.
Adamson, J. r. Turner and II. J.
Murrish incorporators. Very little
attention was paid to the matter at
the time, owing g the faei that from
one to half a dozen corps perations file
their articles ever business day in
the year.
But, as IT happens this is perhaps
the most important single event that
has happened in Winnemueca during
its history.
w. G.. Adamson, president of the
company, when seen by the Silver
state representative today, stated
positively that work on mill and
sampler will be commenced within
30 days and will be pushed to a rapid
completion. The piint will be locat-
cd on the Humboldt river, within one
mile of the bridge altheugl its exact
location has not yet beef given to the
public.
The capital stock of he company
is 100000, fully paid up. This means
that the work can be started and com
pleted without waiting a to peddle
stock.
The initial capacity Of the mill viii
be 80 tons daily. As the business
grows this will be allied to sufficient
ly to take care OF all business that
may be offered. The eomrany will al
so purchase ores, paying SPOT cash as
soon as it can be sampled and its
value determined.
For many years the mining industry
of northern Humboldt county has
been seriously handicapped by a lack
Of milling facilities. Within radius
of 20 miles from town, il Is safe to
say, there are lying on the dumps
hundreds of thousands of ions of ore
that cannot be hauled to a railroad
and shipped at profit. This ore can
be hauled to the new mil and dispos-
ed of at a profit. With the new mill,
prospector can bring in few sacks
ot ore on Saturday and secure enough
ready cash to provide grub for the
coming week
There is at present CROUCH ore in
sight on Winnemucca nountain, at
barrett springs, SuhAmhe, Dhh bien
and other nearby mining camps t.
keep this mill running night and day
for years.
Great credit is due 20 the originat
ers of this company for the work they
have done, and the benefits that will
accrue to Winnemueea and her bust
ness interests cannot be overesti
mated.
