NEVADA DOUGLAS HAS
IT'S PLANS Under w Az

When the new 25O ton teaching
plant of the Nevada Douglas Con-
aolidated Copper company starts up
about June /, it's crushing depart
n.2nt will be equipped with a set CT
wall rolls made in Utah. Gen
eral Manager Orem sad that this de-
partment will have a capacity of
about 500 tons daily, or equal to
twice the initial capacity of the mill.
These rolls are the invention of E.
y. Wall and are made at the Salt
Lake engineering works. 1t is un-
derstrod that if the mill meets with
the sanguine hopes of the directors
that its capacity will at once be dou-
bled.
Mr.. Orem stated further that the
last of the machinery is now in tran
sit and all should be in place for the
mill and mine to start up on sched-
ule.
The several mines of the Nevada
Douglas ere reported to be in excel
lent physical condition SO that the
moment the plant is ready almost
any required daily tonnage can be
started Immediately to the mill.
The hrOFen down and blocked out
ore is estimated at more than So

to 10 per cent copper. The large
tonnage which helped supply the

SOOTHWORTH TELLS
OF WILLARD STRIKE
NEW CAMP IN HUMBOLDT RANGE
ENJOYING OLD-FASHIONED
STAMPEDE

C. Z. %Southworth is very favorably<
impressed with the new camp ON
willard, from which he has return
ed after making a very thorough in
spection. Mr.. Southworth says:
''The discovery was made nine
miles northeast of Lovelock and
about four miles in an airline from
Oreana. 1t is in the low foothills on
the back road to Rochester and is
mo- far from where there was a Gin
nabar excitement in the early days.
Pay ore has already been found in
sever places, although not sufficient
development work has been done to
demonstrate n considerable guam
tity, the Honey Bee ledge, a foot
and a half wide, being the largest ex-
posure.
1.-The general formation of the dis
trict is shale, which is cut by a huge
%porphyry dyke, containing a network
of quartz stringers. The predomi-
mating value is gold. 1t is an ex-
cellent quality and is free. The sill
yer is found in bromides and black
sulphides. Among the Tonopah peo-
pie who are interested at Willard are
Former Governor eddie, Senator
Kendall and Fred ]. Siebert. They
have good showings on their leases.
"Willard's population cannot be
estimated, for the greater number of
the people spend the day there and
go to Lovelock in the evening. There
are, however, about fifty tents and
three or foul frame buildings in the
camp. hat is, there were when l
left, but there are more now, for
people are arriving hourly. The
camp is a typical rush settlement,
with it's rough bars, restaurants and
other places of business. The old
timers who are in all the stampedes
are to be found in large numbers.
Lovelock is reaping benefits similar
to those during the Rochester boom.
1t is impossible to obtain a bed at
any of the hotels without making
reservations. People are talking in
big figures, but as yet no capital has
gone into the district and no deals OF
consequence have been concluded, al
though understand tina several
are pending."-BonanZa.
