"RY THIS SIGN WE CONQUER"
First Appearance of "UncIe Joe" in
Republican Caucus.
american Economist)

NAlHeTlCtlH ECOHOHllSI)
Former Speaker Cannon sounded
the keynote of the campaign of 1916 in
his remarks at the caucus of the re-
publican minority in the house of rep
resentatives, December 2. AS quoted
in the Washington dispatch to the New
York American, Mr.. Cannon said.
Tonight, after our term of adversi-
ty, / am glad to look around me and
see this encouraging number of old
and new faces. / am glad to say: Be-
hold how good and how pleasant it is
for brethren to dwell together in uni
ty."
The former speaker waved his arms
about and teetered on his toes in the
same old spot where years ago he was
wont to harangue a goodly republican
majority. He continued:
I'VE may disagree about some
things, some of us are wet and some of
us are dry; some are radical, some are
liberal; some are for woman suffrage
and some are against it. But on the
one great issue, the great economic
by this sign we conquer
on the tariff, we are all agreed"
Uncle Joe will not be speaker of the
present house. He will not even be
the minority leader. But he will be
the same wise, able, masterful man
that he has been FOR the past 80 years;
the same sound adviser, the same po-
entail protectionist that the country
mas known so long and valued so high
" Minority Leader Mann could not
wish for wiser counsellor or a
stronger coadjutor. The tariff, "by
his sign we conquer" Uncle Joe is
light.

News of rich strike of tungsten
ore about half a mile from Sodavlle
was brought to Reno last night by
Lew Rogers, official court reporter in
Judge Morgan's court, who was called
to Hawthorne to report a mining case.
Rogers says there was big rush to
the district as soon as news of the find
leaked out Boulders with which to
build location monuments were scarce
and one enthusiastic miner took all
the tombstones out of the district GEM
etery and used them for monuments
The original strike was made by one
of the pioneer prospectors of the dis
trict and Rogers says he is on the road
to fortune. Thirty-flve men are en-
ployed on the original strike and there
are many other men working in the

Has Produced Millions.

They Immediately went to France,
formed the Gold Roads company in
France and sold half interest for
100000, Not being mining men, they
built an enormous dry mill, which
proved to be failure, and the 300
foot level of the mine proving to be
barren, they got cold feet" But they
finally got their nerve up, went below
the S50-foot level and found the great
ore shoot that has continued to pro-
duee ever since. But their nerve was
not strong enough to keep the mine,
so they sold it to the United States

pany for $1,SOO,O00, subject to a $780,
900 bond issue, making the price ST.
100000. This company has been pro-

to 100000 per month ever since.

Big Job Ahead.
Assuming that all material lying
above planes extending from the out
side limits of the bottom of the prism,
reference 40, up to the limits of the
breaks will move into the cut 7.0o0,-
900 cubic yards will have to be re-
moved before the slides are entirely
stopped. Mr.. comber. resident engi-
neer of the dredging division, assumed
surface parallel to the surface ex-
listing on october IA, the date of the
last complete survey, and As feet be-
low it, on which basis 100000 cubic
yards would be the quantity to be
handled.
He thinks, however that a mean
between the two amounts may be
more nearly correct, which was the
method of arriving at the 100000
cubic yard figure which has appeared
in the press. 1t is at best, only a
guess. 1t must not be inferred from
this that the canal will be closed until
this amount is dredged, for such is not
the case; on the contrary, it Is the in
tention to pass ships as soon as
channel Is secured through the re-
naming 600 feet, and there are reas-
IL ds, qft. In 4haf
channel through the INSTRUCTED area
can be maintained.
1t Is certain that the troubles are
due to the failure of underlying strata
because these were unable to bear the
weight that the banks brought upon
them Under the circumstances 1t is
difficult to understand the impression
that has gained credence in some
quarters that a sea level canal would
have avoided the difficulties encoun-
tered since the cutting would have
been through the same material, but
at least 80 feet deeper.
1t is also certain that nothing can
stop the movements now In progress
until the angle of repose Is reached
for the materials under the conditions
that exist and that this can be reach
ed only by removing the excess
amount of material II experience
counts for aught, then that gained in
the handling of the slides and the
breaks that have occurred along the
line of the canal leaves no doubt that
the means adopted and now in use
will effect a cure in the slides that
now close the canal; Furthermore, that
when cured no further trouble need
be anticipated from slides in this To-
cality.

MINERAL DISCOVERIES
MADE ON GRUBSTAKES
HOW ARIZONA BONANZA WAS
LOCATED BY MEXICAN ON
$3.50 GRUB SUPPLY.

A new gold mining camp has devel-
oped at Oatman, ArIz From popu-
lation OF less than 300 one year ago it
now Is credited with over 1000 and 1t
bids fair to exceed 5000 by mid-win-
ter. The discovery of every new min
ing camp seems to date back to an
accident or a grubstake; in this IN
stance it was grubstake.
This matter of grubstaking has ever
been an important factor in business
and history. The most historic grub
stake was when sea, not iGnaroy-
ing prospector named Christopher
Columbus, persuaded Isabella, queen
Of Spain, to pawn her jewels and grub
stake him on short cut to wealth.
The term grubstake was unknown in
those days but the principle involved
seems to have been well understo ID
"Columbo" was not looking for a new
world, but the rich spices and gold
of the far east. Had he returned with
empty ships what ructions there
would have been in the innermost cir
cles of the court of Spain. 1t is the
same today when one CANDLES lit
tie money in mining, expecting TO get
rich over night and does not.
Staked a Mexican.
1t was back in the '70s that Henry
Loving, storekeeper Of Kingman.
Ariz., grubstaked Mexican name5
Jose Hurera. The grub consisted Of
about $3.50 worth of coffee, bacon and
beans. Not that Mr.. Loving, now
state senator for Mojave county,
would not have put up more, but $3.50
is about the limit for a Mexican. Hur-
era travelled about 35 miles westward
and eamped one night within short
distance of the old one time much
travelled Fort Mojave military road
He did not want to get too far from
the source of supplies for another
$3.50 worth of grub so he started work
at point that looked good and easy
to him. He found colors and then he
did dig, and from 9-foot hole took
out several hundred dollars worth Of
gold and went back to Kingman. Great
excitement followed, and by the mer,
est coincidence Joseph Burkhardt,
wealthy Dutchman, happened TO be
coming back from the east, heard
about it, went out and saw it, did not
know a mine from Adams off oxe, i'm
offered $4,000 for the prop
erty, and which was Immediately ac-
cepted. Burkhart spent $4,000 or $40,-
900 sinking a shaft; became thorough
ly disguised because the rich ore did
not last and because he did not know
about mining, but he franz
ed up a deal with a mining engineer
who knew his business who sold his
