There is every reason to warrant
the belief that the Goldfield district
will experience no further litigation.
The camp seems to be slowly but
surely emerging from the deterrent
effect of the Merger internal and
other court proceedings which are
gradually drawing to a close. In
view of the fact that the district was
at the advent of the present year on
the eve of a new period of activity
and prosperity when the Merger con-
troversy was precipitated and call
ed a halt in the plans of many new
and old companies for the develop
ment of their properties on ali ex-
tensive scale, the apparent clearing
of the camps horizon, from legal
standpoint, is, indeed, gratifying,
with the result that it is apparent
that the camp will hold its own dur

LIEUT.. GOVERNOR SULLIVAN
MAKES DISCOVERY in CAP
ITAL BASEMENT

In rummaging around in an ac-
emulation of old papers and docu-
ments in the basement OF the state
capitol at Carson City recently, Lieut.
Governor Maurice J. Sullivan uncov-
cred a certificate of award of the
Worlds Columbian exposition IL
1898. at Chicago, to the state of
Nevada for an exhibit of ores from
Esmeralda county. The certificate
makes it evident that this country at
tracted attention as producer OF
high grade gold ore long prior to the
discovery of the GOldfield district.
Lieut.. Governor Sullivan will see
that the certificate is well preserved
in order that the future generations
may be enlightened as to the early
history of this county as a mining
section.
The certificate bears the engraved
signatures of George r. Davis, IT.

GREAT BEND IS
MAKING HEAOWAY
ERGY TO DEVELOPMENT
ON 500 LEVEL

With eleven men divided into three
shifts, the Great Bend is gaining five
feet day in the main shaft. This
rate of progress is considered very
satisfactory by Consulting Engineer
Turner in view of the growing diff
ficulties which beset the shaft force.
The water has been lowered to a
dnpth of 290 feet instead of 800 as
previously reported, owing to mis-
take in estimating depth by count
ing the sets in the shaft. The OBJ
struction at this point is yielding
stubbornly, and as the mass Con-
tains quantities of broken rock it is
inferred that leasers working on the
100-foot level economical by dump
act nature of the obstruction cannot
be determined for several days,
when it will be known positively
whether the muck rests on plat
form inserted at the 800 or that
some of the timbering has given way
and let in quantity of loose rock.
The main location points on the
surface have been marked with
squared posts painted white and
topped with black circle so any WIS.,
itor to the property can easily pick
up the boundary lines. 1t is not gen.
orally known that the Great Bend
estate has been opened to depth of
500 feet by five shafts about 800
feet apart and all connected on that
level by long crosscut. In the DR..
Lockhart Diadem shaft some of the
finest high grade specimens known
to the camp were taken out in 1909.
The doctor always contended that
with money he would develop one of
the richest leases in camp, but the
panic cramped Lis hackers, who al
lowed the lease to lapse.
The management resolved not to
waste any more time in shallow
workings, but to sink to depth OF
500 feet, wher it is figured great
est values will be found. On tho
200-foOt level one of the veins aver
aged 20 feet in width with all the
characteristics of a true fissure. The
high grade ore showed considerable
tellurium, the first found in the
GOldfield district, and was discover
ed near the surface by James r.
Davis while examining the ground
with view to purchase.

MERGER WORK IS
MAKING HEAOWAY
JUMBO EX. STRIKE IMPROVES
CHANCES FOR CATCHING
OREBODY

The recent disclosure of the
downward or southern extension of
the famous Jumbo Extension ore
body above the 1017-foot level Of
that nine, at a point 800 feet from
the northern boundary line of the
st. Ives claim of the Goldfield Mer-
ger Mines company, has increased
the already keen interest of local
mining men in the operations being
prosecuted in the latter property, un-
der the supervision of General
Manager A. l. Darcy. AS the ore
body at the latest point of revela-
ton the Jumbo Extension has
been found to show just as great
strength and regularity as on the
upper levels, there seems to be no
doubt that it will be exposed at a
still greater depth in the Mergers
ST. Ives claim.
The exploratory work in that claim
is being conducted tributary to an
SS-foot raise from a branch cross
cut from the main east croscut ex-
tended into the Merger territory

EXPLORING VEIN
ON TWO LEVELS
GOING STEADILY AHEAD
WITH WORK

No developments out of the ordi-
nary have occurred of late in the ex-
ploratory work being conducted by
pany of Goldfield. However, the re-
the Reorganized Booth Mining COM
suits being obtained are of highly
encouraging character and there is
reason to believe that discoveries of
far-reaching Importance will be made
in the near future.
On the $50 and 500-foot levels the
big vein has an excellent and exceed
ingly promising appearance. On the
$50 level crosscutting west is in
progress from the main north drift at
a point about $50 feet from the shaft.
On the 500 level the south drift along
the vein continues to occasionally re-
veal lunches of good ore.
