MAY ENSUE
FROM DECISION

The decision by Justice Norcross,
%concurred in by the other members
of the supreme court and filed with
the clerk of the court this morning
in the case of Esmeralda county VS..
Mineral county to settle the conten-
ton of Esmeralda that the net pro-
ceeds of mines were not a part of the
assessment roll, consequently not
subject to the payment of Esmer-
alda's portion of the salary of the
district judge, will be the cause of a
number of suits instituted by
ties having no revenue from bullion
taxes which are included in judicial
districts of more than one county
for the several amounts paid into the
judges salary fund in excess of their
actual proportion of the same, says
the Carson Appeal.
Heretofore revenu from taxes Of
the net proceeds of mines has not
been included in the totals Of the
assessment rolls of the various coun-
ties, and no portion of the revenue
from hat source has gone toward
the payment of the judges salary,
with the result that the counties hav-
ing no revenue from that source have
paid more than their just proportion
of the expense of the district courts.
The decision is the result Of man.
damus proceedings brought by Es-
meralda county to settle the matter
of the pro rata of the judges salary
of each of the counties composing the
seventh judicial district. The court
held that the net proceeds of mines
is a part of the assessment roll for
the payment of the judges salary
and that upon petition the writ would
issue to Mineral county.

NEW DIRECTORY OF
USEFUL MINERALS

Every city has a directory of it's
inhabitants, giving the names of
wage earners, and the actresses where
each may be found. If you do not
know a persons lame but do know
that he is a paperhanger, the CLASH
fled business directory will locate
him for you. A directory of the use
full minerals in the United States, on
much the same plan, has just been
published by the United States geo.
logical survey. If you want to know
where any one of the 400 useful min
erals occurs. this directory gives the
list of localities in each state where
your mineral will be found. If you
do not know the name of the mineral
but do know that it is an ore of sill
yer or manganese, or carries asphalt
or radium, the glossary will guide
you to it..
The material in this bulletin is in
two distinct parts. The first part
consists of lists of the occurrences of
minerals in each of the states, be-
ginning with Alabama and ending
with Wyoming. Under the name OF
each state the minerals found in that
state RI given alphabetical Sc
quence, and after each mineral name
is given a list of the places where
the mineral is found. The second
part is a glossary of more than 425
names. Each definition is followed
by a list of the states in which the
mineral occurs. The glossary is
therefore virtually an index to the
first part.
Some mineral aggregates, such as
clay, granite, limestone, sand and
sandstone, are included because they
constitute a very considerable part
of the mineral production of the
country.
This publication should be useful
to many classes of people in many
ways. If some one wants to sell you
stock in a Texas oil company the re-
port will tell you in what counties
other counties it may eventually be
found. If your wife wears a blood
stone cavalier, the report gives you
the only locality in the United States
where that stone is known to occur.
If you want to manufacture plaster
of Paris or need lime for your back
pasture, this report will tell you
where to find the gypsum and gives
the location of your nearest limeklln,
All this information has been com
piled by Samuel Sanford and Ralph
w. Stone and condensed into 25O
pages. A copy of this report, Bull
letin 5S5, may be obtained free on
application to the director of the
United States geological survey,

TIN DISCOVERED
I'm PLACER BEDS
MINING MAN TELLS OF FIND IN
NORTHERN PART OF
STATE

Claiming the discovery of tin along
with gold in placer beds, northern
Nevada is about to have something
new in mining, besides bringing in
the first large dredging machine in
that part of the state. according to
James b. Allen, a mining man of
Utah-Nevada, who was in Salt Lake
yesterday. a guest at the Kenyon,
says the Herald-Republican. He and
associates are forming the Goldville
Placer company. The property takes
in fifteen full placer claims, or about
800 acres, located twenty miles
northwest from Carlin, New, Mr.. AL
len will be manager. He said yes
terday that in sampling the gravels
he had found undoubted evidence of
tin. This makes in a nitrate of iron,
which is found in sluicing for the
gold. 1t is the intention to have a
dredge in operation inside of sixty
days.
Beautiful specimens of gold mug
gets were shown by the wne of
the group. They were from the size
of a pinhead to hat of a small birds
egg. Mr.. Allen said that his tests
convince him that the richest sands
will average from S. to So to the
yard. These gravels have been found
to be ten to thirty feet to bedrock.
1t is the expectation to at once put
in a dredge to handle the sands on
a large scale. This will have a ca
pacity of 10000 to 40, 1000 cubic yards
a month. If the several tests now
being made for tin prove up to the
expectations of the promoters, Ne
vada is about to welcome the open
ing up of an entirely new kind of
mining for the state. In fact, there
is probably no known commercial tin
deposit west of the Dakotas.
In the vicinity of the GOldville
group Spaniards and Cinnamon have
been washing out gold for many
years. One Nevadan is said to have
cleaned up $4,000 in a few years.
The Lynn Big Six property is only a
short distance away.
Up Lynn Creek canyon is a prop
erty of eight claims, which will di-
rectly be incorporated in Nevada IN
der the name of the TantamOunt
Gold Mining & Milling company.
There will be 100000 shares of 81
par value; half the stock in the treas
ury. The incorporatOrs are James b.
Allen, Mrs. |. F. Parsons and Early
Mayfield. Miss lone Parsons will be
secretary.
Already WI adits are being sent
into the hill to secure a depth of
about 600 feet on a contact vein,
which cuts through a double forma-
ton. On the surface ore has been
found which assays SIG in gold, cop
per and silver. The formation of the
country is limestone and porphyry
principally with a rhyolite foot wall.
Big beds of quartz are prominent.

DECLARE NEW CAMP
WILL Be A HUMMER
ATTORNEY AND MINING MAN
MAKE VISIT TO HAYSTACK
DISTRICT q

l.. G. Campbell, vice president of
the National Mines and n Of Ne
vada's keen mining attorneys, which
essentially makes him a student OF
geology and m~ineralogy. visited Hay
stack during the week, accompanied
by another notable mining figure OF
Nevada, SO far as successful mining
is known, r. s.. Bolam, and both have
a favorable opinion of the new dis
trict, says the Winnemucca Silver
State.
Attorney Campbell had this to
say: THE district has most favor
able prospect features. In fact, ore
is in evidence, and conditions at
present are such that no n can con-
denim the district. In other words,
with the amount of work so far per-
formed, the merit of the district is
one of proof, hence, to use a law
yer's language, the man who cannot
see any good there must wait for the
disproof for his pessimism. or
course when depth is attained and
values maintain their Importance,
then it is time to suggest it is a per-
manent district where mines are
made and fortunes as a consequence
taken from Haystack. Until such
further demonstration the district is
but a favorable prospect, justifying
legitimate development"
Bolam concurred with the fOregO-
ing. and added: THE district, to the
shallow depth attained. surely shows
much quartz carrying fine values in
gold. This quartz is in fine assures,
seams and literally distributed over
the district. The latest section open
ing up with very fine promise is on
the Truitt7Butler ground. Here they
certainly are getting some very rich
float, and in trenching for it have
opened a three-foot vein which as
SAYS $14 to $35 per ton. The richer
float found evidently came from an
other parallel vein. 1t is in large
chunks and shows that the pay
streak is not a narrow seam or vein,
but a healthy ore shoot of rich value
within a assure line independent of
any vein.
So far as determined, as a whole,
the district is of most favorable as
pect and has a basis out of which pro-
ducing mines are made"
S. E. Montgomery, the surveyor
and mining engineer. likewise re-
turned from Haystack last evening.
He put in half of the week in sur
veying and looking at prospects and
showings. He, too, is an experienced
mining man, and says: 1.-THE district
has good showings with the incentive
to do minerlike work to prove its
further worth. 1t is rarely that a
man goes into a new district and
finds so much rich float and so many
sources from which quartz carrying
good gold values is taken. In a min
ing sense the Truitt section shows up
high class. Here the finest gold-bear-
ing vein in the camp, so far, is being
determined. 1t is a sort of bull
movement for the district, and taken
in conjunction with the earlier strike,
from which the present shipment OF
ore is taken, means a rising market
for the Haystack gold mining oppor'
tunities. The district is only in q
formulative state. but there has been
enough shown to justify real down
right development work, which from
present indications will probably
place Haystack gold camp in the div
idend paying class"

RUMORS THAT WARDEN
HAS OPENED NINE

Word received in this city yester-
day from Ely is to the effect that
Warden Dickerson has struck it rich
in a gold mine owned by him in that
section and that recently miners en-
ployed by him had tapped a three
foot ledge of ore which goes in the
hundreds in value, says the Carson
News. The warden was summoned
to the property about a week ago
and is expected to return to this city
today when the truth of the rumor
will be known.
