Condensed Mining
News of District

There has been some little rivalry be-
tween this concern and the Miami
people in securing ground all along
the western range.
Yerington M. & Elk. Coo. S.
Weaver, of Ptoria, ILL.,, who is heavily
interested in the Yerington Mines &
Exploration Co., is spending month
in the district in consultation with
Manager Durand regarding future de-
velopment operations on the COM
panys ground Mr. Weaver arrived
here last Sunday to be present at the
annual meeting of the company, which
was held in Yerington last Monday
The property of this company is adj
vantageously located for working and
shipping ore, being close to the rail
road, and it is a property of great
possibilities. A portion of the holdings
have been taken under bond by the
Miami people.
Yerington-Bullion-At this property
development is being pushed ahead
with two shifts. The property has a
large acreage and development work
SO far done indicates that the prop
erty has the making of big mine.
1t will take years to develop this prop
erty but it will be in the producing
list this summer, and when shipping
starts there will be no let-up for years
to come, unless the company puts in
reduction plant of its own. Messrs.
J. |. Thatcher and ]. G. Irwin, heavy
stockholders in the company, have
been in the district this week looking
over the property and visiting other
sections of the district.
Nevada-Douglas- and
production on this property continues
to be about the same week after week
New ground is being opened up all
the time and the results are the find
ing of the usual high grade ore for
which this property is noted. The
company now has about l20 men on
the payroll and every month is add
ing thousands of dollars TO its treas
ury.
Mason Valley-The Mason Valley
is producing at the present time about
5000 tons of ore per month Some
very rich native copper has been op
ened up on the No. 4 tunnel level and
the property is looking better than
ever Development is going ahead in
all parts of the mine with the usual
push and energy of the management
Smith Valley Mines-The Smith
Valley Mines Co. will soon have its
plant of machinery in operation. The
bad weather and roads have delayed
the work of getting the plant on the
ground and installed but in few days

and south and Fernley will be at the
crossroads of the company's two big
lines.
The country has had lots of rain this
season and crops are going to be rec
ord-breakers this year Many acres
of new land are being put in, mostly
to alfalfa and some to fruit-apples,
pears, berries, etc, as it has been
demonstrated that frosts are not Sc
rious menace to fruit owing in that
section.
A cooperative company has been
organized to build large feed corrals
at Fernley to take the hay of the sec
ton and feed it to cattle in the winter
months, and eventually the place will
be quite point for the shipment of
cattle.
Mr. McCulloeh has leased the Mel
endy ranch for five years and he will
go into the hay business on quite a
large scale and make a feeding sta
ton of the ranch.
A couple of things that Fernley
needs right now are branch Jail and
a Deputy Sheriff. The little town is
on the main line of the S. p, as before
stated, and the activity now displayed
there is attracting a lot of box-car
tourists and rough element, and the
place needs an officer of the law and
place of confinement for law
breakers.
With all these things going on and
the outlook for considerable building
in the near future, the settlement of
the agricultural district, etc, there is
no reason why Fernley should not
grow rapidly and town lot will be a
valuable acquisition to any mans
holdings

WILL FACE CHARGE OF GRAND
LARCENY.
Man Who Stole Saddle, Etc, on Mil
Ter Ranch Caught at Golconda.

On the oath of February a warrant
Peterson on the charge of having
burglarized the barn on the Miller
ranch, taking therefrom a silver
mounted bit and saddle, a pair of
chaparejos and a RATA belonging to
]. Z. Gordon, and from another barn
on the same ranch a saddle belonging
to the company. The complaint was
sworn to by ]. f. Gordon, and on in
vestigation it was learned that Ben
Blair had shipped his personal effects
to Elko under the name of Geo.
Peterson. A telegram was sent to the
Sheriff of Elko county, who very
quickly returned wire to the effect
that Geo. Peterson had sent to Elko
and had those personal effects re-
shipped to Golconda, where he was
working on ranch at that place A
wire was sent OF Constable Ed Lying,
who wired for a telegraphic warrant.
The law requires that telegraphic
warrant be indorsed by the District
Judge. Very fortunately on the night
Lyn's wire was received Judge Ian
gan was in town and the original war
rant was presented to him for indorse-
ment, which was promptly done and
the same wired to Lying, who there
upon arrested the young man. Dep
uty Sheriff Bulkeley was sent to Col
conda and brought him back On the
way back he informed Bulkely of his
having taken the saddle and bride
mentioned, of the further fact that he
had disposed of them, putting them
near hay stack on the Campbell
ranch, Bulkeley took him to that
point and they dug the equipment
from under the pile of hay.
Peterson was brought to Yering-
ton Monday morning and incarcerated
in Jail. He had his hearing Thursday,
upon which hearing he was bound
over to the District Court, and will
probably be tried at the next term of
court. Attorney c. H. Miller ap-
peared as defendants counsel There
are some rather mysterious circum-
stances connected with the young
mans chosen. method of travelling un-
der two or more names, which he ex-
plains in his own way. and there is
another general impression out that
he has seen service in the United
States Navy, which he denies, and ex-
plains the statements formerly made
regarding his experiences in the Navy
as mere fairy tales recited for the
amusement of the other boys where he
has worked; all of which explanations
have been taken with strong saline
mixture by the officers.

new RAILROAD TOWN OF
FERNLEY GROWING RAPIDLY

Fernley, on the line of the Southern
Pacific in the northern portion OF
Lyon county, is destined to be one of
the most important towns in our coun-
ty as well as in the State. There is
considerable activity at that point just
now. Two townsites have been laid
out, both on the south side of the S.
P. tracks and town lots are selling
for god figures One of the tracts is
owned by the S. P. Company and the
other by Wylds and Barrow In this
latter site corner lots 30xl20 are SELL
ing for $500 and the inside lots for
$500. Quite few lots have been sold
and people are beginning to build. An
$1,000 hotel will be in course of cen
struction in a couple of weeks and the
railroad company is to erect a fine
new depot this spring-just as soon as
the material can arrive. San Francis
CO wholesale people are arranging to
put up fine store building for dis
tributing point, and there will soon
be some nice, modern residences built.
Fernley is surrounded by splendid
section of agricultural land which is
watered by the Truckee-Carson irri-
CATION project. and many fine farms
are now under cultivation This point
is also where the Southern Pacific
cutoff branches off to go to the north
ern portion of the State and into Cali
fornia and Oregon. Another cutoff
soon to be made is that from Fern.
ley to Apache, station on the line
between Churchill and Hazen. 1t is
understood that some of the S. p.
appropriation for extensions will go
into this line this summer. 1t will
give the company direct line north

all underground work will be in full
blast. The shaft will be pushed down
to the 20O-foot level and in the mean
time production will be under way and
shipments will soon be made regu-
larly
Copper Giant-Sam Garberino, of
Buckskin, leased and bonded to Mark
Mccormack and w. H. Shaffer this
week his nine claims which comprise
the Copper Giant property. This
ground is about mile west of Mickey
Pass and north of the Kaufman and
Randall ground The leasers are held
to do certain amount of work on the
property and make a substantial pay
ment in six months and the balance
of the purchase price in II months.
The property has nice surface show
ing and Mr.. Gaberino has done con-
siderable work on it for the past eight
a 55foot shaft on the property and
cross cut tunnel which has cut some
good ore at a distance of rs feet from
the portal. Another tunnel hits the
ledge at an angle and follows the vein
for Is feet in sulphide ore mixed with
red and black oxides. There are a
number of prospect holes on the
ground which show it to be very
promising.
East Yerington District-The East
Yerington, or Pumpkin Hollow dis
trict, is showing up to be something
more than people generally gave it
credit for This is gold belt with
some galena and silver showings
Some very fine ore is being opened up
in the Knight property and carload
has been mined and sacked and is
ready to be hauled to the railroad as
soon as the roads are passable AL
Bovard has opened up good sized
body of shipping ore on his property
and Frank Meyers has some ground in
which there is some very fine ore.
Ross and Mcleod have cookbook
ing piece of ground and are doing
some work on it, and there are others
who have fine prospects. There will
be several shippers in that section in
the next 80 or 90 days.
Yesterday A. J. Bovard sold to c.
Bovard his one-third interest in four
claims in the district for the sum of
$1,000, onefourth of which was paid
down and the balance to be paid in
one year from date. This property
has an excellent showing and will be
shipping ore in few weeks.

blcado una ordenanza Municipal, que
bien vale I'm comentario
En- |. citada ordenanza aparece una
secci0n en- que Sc dice 10 siguiente: :
" Fl e. tratista entrara en- possession de
los pueStos demas locales de la plaza
del Mercado desde el primero de Julio
de 1914, fecha en- que empieza ell ano
econ6nico y su compromise, y por to-
do el tempo Ell que este EN- vigor este

nistraci6n Municipal no reconoce com
promises hechos por contratistas para
la ocupaci6n de tales puestos y loca-
les.
Como no nos GUSTAV las nebulosida-
des y Gicha seccion envuelve algo que
no parece claro, bueno seria que el al
calde eXplicase que significa esa clau-
slla qoe tiene todas las intenciones de
un Miura.
Por 10 que Sc desprende de su lectu-
ra la administration municipal trata
de pregentar un conficto al pdblico.
Los ganaderos cohibidos y anulados
por dicha secci6n Sc veran en- ell preci-
so ease de abandonar los puestoS a
que tienen derecho desde hace muchos
amos. antes de incurrir en- las iraS del
nuevo rematista investido por la eta

de un rematista no pueden llegar has
ia el punto que pretende la admins

c0mplice y responsible de los desati-
nos que pueda cometer ell rematista du-
rante todo el tempo de su jefatura en-
la plaza del Mercado
No creemos que sea por este cami-
no que el gobierno Municipal pue-
da lavarse de las muchas culpas que
sobre su administration pesan. otor-
gando privilegios que traeran como
secuela una serie de atropellos abu-
SOS incalifcables Por que elaro esta
que 81 esa secci6n Sc mantiene EN- la
forna como aparece redactada ning1n
ganadero debe acudir la subasta va
que ella constituye un atentado 4 los
principles de la verdadera dcmocracia
Y de la libre concurrencia
Tencmos entendido ademas que en-
anteriores ordenanzas no aparece dicha
disposition.
T.lega hasta nosotros el rumor de que
81 el Ayuntamiento no deroga la cita-
da scccion objeto de nuestra critica,
los ganaderos adoptaran e acuerdo de
ratirarse de la subasta
Nos hacemos eco de la noticia como
ma information pero 81 clio Sc confr-

de equidad.
