L. G. Campbell James Edmunds
and r. S. Bolam went to Haystack
yesterday by auto and returned in
the evening, accompanied by C. T.

in the option they have on the main
property in the new camp
Mr.. Smith brought in a number of
samples of rich gold ore from the
property, on which he has been SUI
perintending the work for the past
three weeks.
Prospect shafts are being sunk
on three OF the veins which traverse
the property" said Mr.. Smith, "and
the showing, with the limited work
that has been done, is certainly one
of the best | have ever seen. Sam
pies of the ore from the different
openings range from $25 to $3.50 per
ton, nearly all in gold. The largest
vein shows about two feet in width
Of ore that will average close around
$75. The richest ore is coming from
smaller vein, about ten inches in
width, and it will average about $50
per ton.
"The ore from the three veins is
being sacked as taken out and we
have a team engaged in hauling It
to Jungo. We expect to send a car
load shipment to the smelter in about
| two weeks"
A little tent city is springing up
at Haystack and already there are
about fifty people in camp. Besides
those from Winnemucca there were
a number of Inlay and Lovelock
people at Haystack yesterday. There
have been number of applications
for leases on the main property, but
none have been let, though the own

day and stated that the showinss

NEVADA WAS IN
MEXICO UNTIL
WAR OF 1916
GLANCE BACK AT AN EXCITING
PERIOD IN HISTORY OF
THIS STATE.

Mexico claimed Texas as her terri,
tory and was displeased when it was
annexed to the United States after
successful rebellion. The western
boundary of Texas was in dispute,
Mexico claimed it was the Nueces
river; Texas, that it was the Rio
Grande The strip of ground between
the rivers was claimed by both.
These differences, it was thought,
would be settled by arbitration
Mexicans crossed the Rio Grande;
surprised and captured Captain
Thornton who was leading a scouting
party up the Rio Grande from Brown
vile by order of General Taylor.
Taylor then moved back to the
Nueces river, with about 1000 men,
to get supplies. On his return to
Brownsville, he met and defeated
at Palo Alto, after a half days bat
tie. Next morning Taylor, still on his
way to Brownsville, met and defeat
ed another force of Mexicans who
were intrenched behind a ravine
called Resaca de Palma. He drove
them across the river and, leisurely
following. took possession of Meta
moras.
News of Thornton's capture reach
ed Washington and President Taylor
sent it to congress for consideration.
Congress declared war existed by
the act of the Republic of Mexico"
This was May IS, 1916. Money was
appropriated and more than 100000
volunteers offered their assistance.
AT the beginning of the war Mexico
owned California. Nevada. Utah and
/ Wyoming. The immense richness of
this territory was not then known.
i California was conquested in 1876 by
/ Commodores Sloat and Stockton, aid
ed by fremont. San Francisco, Mon
terey and Los Angeles were easily
taken. New Mexico was conquered
the same year by an expedition from
Fort Leavenworth under General
Kearney with 1900 men. He then
left a detachment of the army with

As the endowed set of Europe refer

abroad, even in America. that the woman
whose time is occupied in dressing and

himself to polo. golf. travel, club life and

person or musician are of higher class
than the man or woman who manufac

ROOT PLACED IN CLASS
WITH BLAINE AND CLAY
Their Attitude Toward South Amer
lea Discussed by Former Am
bassador Bacon.

NEW YORK March 21.-The attitude
of Elihu Root toward South America
combines the idealism Of Henry Clay
and the utilitarianism of James u.
Blaine, and has come to be generally
accepted as the foreign policy of the
United States in this hemisphere. Robert
s. Bacon, corner ambassador to France
said at a luncheon here today. The
United States as nation, however, he
declared, has not aggressively acted
upon the advice of these three states
men.
Mr.. Bacon spoke before the Repub-
hcan Club. The luncheon was attended
by a number Of present and former
American and foreign diplomatlsts
This countrys relationship with South
American nations and the necessity oil
a better understanding at nome OF con,
ditions in those countries were discussed
by Joaquin CalNo. minister Oh lostd

minister 10 Uruguay: Charles H.. Sher-

Clay. Mr.. Bacon said, we as nation

ported by positive action" This has
been due largely. he thought to the
fact that United States has been in
tensely interested with its own affairs
its own marvelously rapid development
and its own interna! problems" Neglect
of our opportunities and our national
ignorance OF South American affairs
and seeming indifference to progress
there. he said have engendered resen,-
ment. distrust and suspicion in those
countries.
Both Mr. Bacon and Mr.. Wickcrsham
commended the work of the Carnegie
peace foundation and the activities Of
tionship with South america.
Barriers to American Trade.
Among the barriers against American
trade with the nations to the south are in
the opinion of Mr.. De Sauiles, lack of
American banks and an American news
service to acquaint the people with our
habits and our purposes
Manuel Gonzales. consul general of
Costa Rica. charged that American mer-
chants did not enter South America in
spirit of friendship.
You do not try to understand us" he
said. You give five pages in your geog-
raphy to India, but you give only a quar-
ter of a page TO South America. Don't
mix in our domestic affairs and you will
be more successful with us. Come with
friendship, with fact and not with theory,
and give US something for what you take
away-and we will be warm for YOU

MISSISSIPPI
RIVER FLOODS
THE Problem.
By Frederic ]. Haskin.

While a Panama canal has been build
ed. millions of dollars expended in re-
claiming waste places OF desert states to
scanty populations and vast outlay con-
templated for the development Of Alaska,
hundreds of millions Of property and a
million of people in the fertile valley of
the lower Mississippi lie exposed to the
annual menace of wild floods through
neglect of adequate investment in engi-
neering works for restraint of the raging
course of the mighty river in, spring
time 1t is estimated that sGO.OoOOO0
would suffice to eliminate the flood ter
ror from the Mississippi delta. Damage
done by the river in single angry out
burst often amounts to many times as
much.
Imperial in its temper, the great river
has dealt out equal blessing and destruc-
ton to those within its power Every
five years. or oftener, the Mississippi
has overleapt its banks and smothered
thousands Of square miles of its lower
flood was recorded by Francois Xavier
Martin in 171S. The river has repeated
its vagary with regularity since then,
causing enough loss to. have paid the
cost of a rigid confinement of its waters
from its mouth to its far-away source.
Constant dread of the recurring deluge
has overshadowed the jewellers in the
delta, who again and again have seen
the river efface all their labor had ac-
complished. They have returned reso-
lutely to their task Of developing the
land, but things remain the same; the
river still comes out conqueror and they
the vanquished.
The area affected by the floods is a
great plain $40 miles in length and about
fifty miles in width. overlaid with some
of the most fruitful soil in the country.
1t contains approximately 10000 square
miles, or is larger than the combined
states of Maryland. Massachusetts,. New
Jersey and Rhode Island 1t is four times
as large as New Jersey, six times as large
as Connecticut and fifteen times as large
as Delaware This alluvial delta land is
distributed through six states-Louisiana,
Mississippi, Arkansas. Tennessee, Mis-
souri, and Kentucky. Much of it is now
lying waste on account of the plague OF
floods.
"rhe delta" begins at the foothills of
the Ozark mountains near Cape Girar-
deau. Missouri, and extends a vast, fer
tile noor to the gulf of Mexico. Within
it's comics are nearly twenty million acres
of rich land. upon which enough food
could be produced to feed the empires of
Europe. However, SO great has been the
uncertainty of any returns upon invest
ments of labor and capital within the
reach of the tickle Mississippi that only
100000 acres of this territory have been
brought under cultivation
