THINKS M|zPAH WILL
PROVE GOLD DISTRICT

John T. Grow left yesterday morn
ing for the Mizpah district, where he
has charge of the Mizpah CONSOLE
dated property about two miles east
from Mizpah siding on the Nevada
Northern.
Recent work on the Mizpah Con
holdings has ben confined to the COM
pletion of assessment work on unpat-
ented claims for this year. The COM
pany has driven a tunnel into the
main part of the group for a dis
lance of 1865 feet to prospect the
formation and reach the Nevada
Northern ledge at depth. This ledge
is of immense width at the surface
and has a fine streak of ore in tt
core which will be cut by the tunnel
500 feet deep on the pitch of t.
ledge. The formation passed
through by the tunnel has been
largely porphyry, rhyolite and quartz
cut by a number of small veins.
One of the lodges cut by the tun-
mel was the Benny Straughan at
about 500 feet from the portal. This
is a wide ledge and a drift was ex-
tended about 25 feet from the tun-
mel to prospect along the hanging
wall where a good streak of ore is
found. This ore carries up to $50
in valuable metals with a good por-
When the scale of operations is in
creased by the company further ex-
ploration of the ledge will be made
in expectation of finding a wider ore

GEORGE WINGFIELD WILL NOT
RUN FOR STATE
SENATE
Special to the Tribune.

okSNh"A w WIN
RENO, Aug. Is. = Late this aft
ernoo the candidacy Of George
Wingfield for the Republican nomi-
nation for state senator from Washoe
county was withdrawn in the clerks
office, and Wingfield's name will not
appear o the primary ballot. Rich
ard H. Cowles, being the only other
republican candidate for the office,
will receive, therefore, his certif-
cate of nomination without a contest.
Mr.. Wingfield stated that his ac-
ton was prompted by important
business engagements that were not
anticipated and could not have been
anticipated at the time his candi-
dacy was announced. "It is likely"
added Mr.. WingReld, that I will be
obliged to spepd four or five weeks
and possibly longer out Of the state
within the next few months. Under
these circumstances. I decided to
withdraw from the primary race, but
in doing SO I would like to ask M
friends to give their heartiest and
most loyal support to Richard H.
Cowles, who fully deserves it and
who entertains practically the same
ideas on the important matters of
probable legislation that I do my

COVERS THIRTEEN
STATES IN HIS CADILLAC

DR.. C. D. Johnson of Thrall, Will
hanson county, Texas, with his son
of nine years and daughter of four,
is making what will probably be a
record trip through the western,
northwestern and southwestern
parts of the country. Travelling in
a Cadillac and carrying a complete
sampling outfit, the doctor expects
to be gone three months and to COW
er thirteen states.
Starting at Ell Paso, Texas, the
doctors route carries him to Los
Angeles by way of Phoenix and San
Diego, through Yosemite and Ia
hoe, Cal, to San Francisco, to Port
land. Ore: Seattle, Wash; Boise,
Idaho; Butte, Mont; Salt Lake,
Utah; Cheyenne, Wyo.: Denver,
Colo; Oklahoma City. OKLA, and
back to his home at Thrall, Tex.
The trip started a month ago and
so far has been without mishap.
From his home to Ell Paso the speed
ometer registered 1000 miles, due to
the numerous detours necessary to
escape washed-out roads. Dr.. John
son reports considerable travel over
the southern route. He says he
helped at least a dozen cars out of
bad holes in Texas and New Mexico,
and several parties Joined him, but
after a day or so dropped back be-
aus the pace a too stiff for
them.

the Texan, when I began hearing
about the mammoth wash-out. This
was to be positively the wost seven
miles. of road in the whole world.

arrived in Yuma we we're told that
we could not expect to get through.

BIG PRODUCTION
Of SALT IN J.. s.

The marketed production of salt
in the United States. including Ha-
wall and Porto Rico, in 1913 reach
ed the record-breaking total of 34,-
399,29S barrels of $50 pounds each,
or 4,S15,9O2 short tons. The value
of the product was $10,123,139.
These figures are the greatest yet
recorded by the United States geo
logical survey for the salt industry
in the United States, and they repre-
sena an increase of 3 per cent in
quantity produced and of nearly 8
per. cent in value compared with
1912.
Salt occurs in two distinct ways
as rock salt in beds or associated
with bedded or ~sedimentary rocks,
and in solution, as in sea water or in
brines or bitterns. A very large part
of the salt production is derived by
converting the natural rock salt into
brine, which is then pumped to the
surface and evaporated.
The two main methods of obtain
ing salt are the mining of rock salt
and the evaporation of sa~lt-bearing
solutions. Rock salt is produced
chiefly by deep shaft mining in the
eastern, central and southern parts
of the United States. Active mines
are located in Livingston county, N.
"; near Detroit, Mich; in Ellsworth
and Rice counties, Kansas, and in
Iberia Parish. southern Louisiana. A
small production comes from surface
deposits in the dry climates of Utah
and California. In 1913 the market
ed production of rock salt in the
United States was 1%,O62.291 short
tons, valued at $1,96S,567.
The processes employed at the
present time in the manufacture of
salt by evaporation are solar evapo-
ration, direct heat evaporation, steam
evaporation and vacuum pan evapo-
ration. Salt is made by one or more
of these processes in the great ma
jority of the salt-producing states.
California is unique among these
states in that the great bulk of the
salt produced in that state comes
from sea water. being obtained by
solar evaporation on San Francisco
bay, near Long Beach and hear San
Diego.
Michigan ranked first among the
salt-producing states in 1913 in both
quantity and value of production,
followed by New York, Ohio and
Kansas in the order named. Details
regarding the salt industry in these
and other salt-producing states are
given in a pamphlet on the salt and
birthstone industry in 1913 recently
issued by the United States geologi-
cal survey as a part of mineral re-
sources of the United States. This
report may be obtained free of charge
by addressing the director of the u.
S. geological survey, Washington,

CYANIDE SUPPLY
IS SUFFICIENT
NEVADA'S GOLD MINES
CLOSING

In connection with telegraphed
stories of a reported shortage in
potassium cyanide, due to the closing
of imports from Germany by the war,
Engineer Julian of the Wingfield in
terests said today that fully IS to 90
per cent of all the cyanide used in
the gold and silver mills of the Unit
ed States is made in this country,
says the Reno Gazette. The princi-
pal sourc of supply is the refinery at
Perth AmbOy, N. ]. 1t uses largely
the by-products from the great
works at Niagara Falls.
During the last few years the man
ufacture of Ken, as it is known in
chemistry, has been largely developed
in the United States. There have
been rumors that there is only sixty
days supply in the United States, but
that amount is believed to be suffi-
cient, in view of the fact that it's
rate of manufacture will be largely
increased. Mr.. Julian is in tele-
graphic communication with manu-
facturers and dealers in various cities
in the United States. and the replies
are to the effect that the supply will
be adequate in view of the charging
of the output of the works and the
prospect of receiving raw material
from abroad.
Meanwhile the mills of this state
have large supplies on hand and
there is no prospect of diminution of
output, particularly as the companies
are nearly all equipped with means
of empounding tailings and, even if
there should be a shortage of cyan
ide, they would have the bullion re-
sulting from plate and pan amalga-
nation.
Mr.. Julian stated that during the
last few years the cyanide of sodium,
due to it's greater proportional
strength, has largely supplanted the
use of potassium cyanide in the pro-
cess of extracting gold and silver
from the silicious pres Of Nevada. 1t
is produced in America to an equal
percentage as cyanide of potassium

Howard Ware. of Filler, Idaho, has
good cause for self-congratulation be-
cause OF his forethought, while Leon
ard F Smith. of the same place, will
probably long regret his lack of it.
Both citizens wanted to file a

quarter section of land. The land is
very desirable. 1t is situated abou,
AZ miles south of Filler and three
miles north of the Nevada line, and
is oficially known as in section 10

stakes upon the land to indicate the
route OF the proposed railroad from
Twin Falls to Humboldt Wells. via

Both sent their applications by
mail. Mr.. Ware affixed a special de-
livery stamp; Mr.. Smith did not.
The moment the mail arrived, the
deputy postmaster hurried to the
land office with the special delivery
letter, and Mr.. Wares entry was
made instanter.
About Is minutes later one of the
clerks brought to the land office with
the regular mail an application from
Mr.. Smith for the same land. He had
missed the goal by neglecting to pay

The retrenchment OF train service
by the Short Line is already being
