OF MONEY FOR
LEGITIMATE MINING

Richard Watson of San Francis
co, prominent in mining affairs, IS
looking over Humboldt and Lam
der county for mining advantages.
This old timer says that mining is
forging to the front and that mining
is on a solid basis. He predicts
large development in Nevada and the
making of new mines in sections he
recently visited. For legitimate
mining there will not be much trou-
BILE to get capital interested, but for
the old taking system there is moth
ing doing. 1t is a case of showing
merit and good faith and then there
will be support given" concluded Mr..

UNION MINES WILL
START SHIPPING ORE
SOME 5000 TONS BROKEN WILL
NET BETWEEN $15 AND $27
TO THE TON

Shipments are to start from the
Union Minep company's property, To-
Gated in Eureka county, Nevada,
35 miles south of Palisade, about
April Is, according to Senator l.. R.
Thatcher from Eureka county, who
left Salt Lake yesterday after having
purchased a carload of general min
ing equipment for the property, of
which he is general manager. In
the neighborhood of 5000 tons of ore
has been broken and stored since
the outbreak of the var 1t will
net the company between SIS and
$27 to the ton. Some years ago the
property, which consists of twelve
mining claims located three claims
wide and four deep along the con-
tact between the p%orphyry and the
limestone, produced more than 800,
900 worth of ore.
The mine has been opened by tun-
nels and the ore body developed
along it's strike for a distance of 200
feet and to a depth of 29O feet. 1t
will average six feet in width, is a
carbonate ore, and is so soft that it
may be mined by picking it down at
a cost not to exceed 25 cents per
ton. A composite sample taken re-
Gently on the two upper levels re-
turned a net value of $15.29 to the
ton, while on the $50 level, due to
the higher grade, a composite sam
pie gave a net return of $27.69 to
the ton. The 5000 tons now await
ing shipment were taken out during
the development work. No effort
crease the tonnage, duo to the low
prices of the metals.
Senator Thatcher said, however,
that with lead and silver at their
present prices, and with every indi-
cation that higher prices will rule in
the neal future, it was the purpose
of the company to increase the work
ing force as rapidly as possible. With
this in view an extensive plan of
development work has been outlined
and will be started Immediately.
Senator Thatcher takes an opti-
mistic view of the present outlook
for the mining industry, not only in
Nevada, but throughout the western
country. On his recent trip to New
York City, he said he found that
there was any amount of available
capital, the n of which were
willing to invest in reputable mining
ventures. He looks forward to one
of the greatest mining revivals that
the country has ever experienced and
says that this seems to be the con-
sensus of opinion among the we'll

NEW MACHINERY AT
PITTSBURGH LIBERTY

The Stall brothers, owners of the
Seretia and Pittsburgh Liberty prop
critics, are now installing new ma
chinery in the Pittsburgh Liberty
mill in preparation to start up the
mill crushing ore to capacity as soLn
as the weather will permit and the
%manchinery can be installed, says the
Chronicle Union.
They are doing away entirely with
the old system of milling that was
formerly used in the mill and which
say, to a great extent, the reason
the Pittsburgh closed down. They
are installing a new IA ton 10G-
horsepower gas engine, a new tube
mill and new cyanide tanks. There
are now on the road two teams,
loaded with machinery and lumber,
also a small gas engine. The ma
"hinery, engine and tube mill are
from Denver and the small engine
from San Francisco.
1t is said there is a big ledge of
nigh grade ore blocked out in the
Seretia and that the mill will start up
on a high grade of rock.
Masonic was named by some pros
pectors who came there from Mono
diggings in the spring of 1860. They
met so many Masons in that section
that they called it the Masonic min
ing district. Masonic was later
abandoned when the rich findings at
aurora became known.
