Trying to Obtain Railroad

Frenk G. O'Kelly, a mine opera
tor of the Goodsprings district, has
q plan by which the hauling cost
Of the mines of the Yellow Pine dis
trict would be considerably reduced.
He is taking up the plan with Off
GERS of the Salt Lake route. He wants
the company to place a third rail
along the tracks now owned by
the Yellow Pine Mining company,
extending the rail into the town
OF G~oodsprings. The object of it
would be to allow standard gauge
freight cars to be hauled into Good
springs by the Shay engines now IN
use. A narrow-gauge continuation
of the road would be run over the
Columbia summit by way of Bell
pass and all the mines on the west
slope of the range would then be
in close proximity to a direct rail
route to the main line.

PUBLIC HEALTH
THEME Of TALK
HIGH AUTHORITY DISCUSSES
MEANS OF SECURING BEST
HEALTH RESULTS

CINCINNATI, o., Oct. 24.-The
question whether health is purchas-
able came up at today's session of
the American Public Health asso-
cation, when DR.. w. G.. Rucker,
assistant surgeon general of the
United States public health service,
delivered an interesting address.
After declaring that a public
health progra mfor cities is in real
ity nothing more or less than a
complete plan for communal .exis-
tence, DR.. Rucker said:
Unfortunately, health has been
considered in the past solely as
a edical problem an dthe pendulum
has ben enthusiastically swung so
far that health is almost recorded
as an artificial state to be aohiev-
ed and maintained solely through
the interposition of medical safe
guards. With entire consisterce
the health w%ardenship of duties has
been committed solely to physicians,
those who by training have been
taught to consider the pathological
in human life, the symptomatology
and evidences of disease rather than
the great, basic, underlying, essen
are the vital part in the creation,
spread, and perpetuation of sickness.
Expert knowledge of disease is
absolutely necessary for the work
o. health department but cannot be
the foundation of a broad munich
pal health policy. Public health is
something more than a mere absence
of disease. 1t is the physiological
functionation of the community.
THE keyword in this pubic health
policy is cooperation, cooperation
having as it's basis the full recogni-
ton of the fact hat in it's last analy-
SIS the health problem is an eco
romic problem and as such cannot
be solved without careful considera-
tion of the economies of the CON-
munity. There has been a great
deal said about the p~urchasability of
health. This pleasing catchword
has generally been interpreted as
meaning that if the general public
would give sufficient funds to the
health department it would receive
health in exchange.
Used in this way the phrase is
incorrect, because physical health
can no more be purchased than
spiritual health, and in both, CO.
operation is a prerequisite to saliva
ton. If we consider that health
is purchasable by the full pay en-
velope whose contents are outlaid
for proper food. clothing, housing,
and all that goes with them, then
indeed is public health purchasable,
but this requires the cooperation of
the city and it's citizens, the aim of
this cooperation being the proven
ton of the shrinkage in the purchas-
ing power of the contents Of the
pay envelope"

the usual slopes. There has been
some improvement in 3O0-A stope
during the week, while the good
grade of ore which has been taken
from 1913 territory is being MAIN
tanned as we'll as ever. There is
no particular change to report in
555 stOpe.
Since the discovery Of the big
vein on the 1000 level out west Of
the shaft, the Monarch Pittsburg is
preparing to prospect it in a most
thorough manner. With this end
in view, an air connection between
the $50 level and 1000 level is be-
ing sought and all work is being
confined to a raise which was
started a few days since. AS Don
height, the $50 west drift will be
extended to make the connection
~whereupon extensive exploration
will be had. The management Is
confident of opening commercial ore
with a reasonable development.
ailafa NIlnc
There was shipped to the West
End mill this week from the opera
lions which the MacNamara COM
pany is conducting through the
workings of the West End COM
pany a carload of ore, weighing
about "a tons. The drift along the
orc shoot is going out on a good
grade of ore, a substantial seam
showing in the face of the drift
which carries exceptional values. The
ore is in the form of silver sui
phide, and it is stated that there
is quite a good sized streak of gool
material contained in the vein mat
ter, about 8 to 4 feet of this quality
drift, while the balance of the face
is in rather lower grade. This ore
has been followed to the extent of
several rounds of shots, and there
is no apparent elimination in value
or widths.
From indications it would appear
that the Buckeye-Eagle group will
produce a good grade of ore. The
immense quantity of low grade ore
in the big ledge of the old Belmont
Extension will become milling ore
il graded with the ore from the
Eagle for ''~sweetening." The devel-
opment to the eastward is proving
wonderful possibilities for the pro-
perty.
Preparations are going on for the
winter work at the Chips CreK
Consolidated placer mine in Califor-
MIA controlled by the Buckeye peo-
pie. The preliminary steps have
been taken and the property suf-
ficiently tested and prospected to
know exactly what the results will
be. The foreman reports that things
are being put in readiness to re-
ceive the machinery. and the work
will be rushed as soon as it ar
rives.-Tonopah Miner.

new PLAN DRAWN
TO SUIT smith
Street owners

Although the meeting of the board
OF supervisors has been called for this
evening principally TO pass on the paw
rolls, the modified report of the city
and county engineer for the Smith
street extension will probably be intro
duced. ,> ....~-
A protest was filed against the first
report of the engineer, as il was de
clared inequitable by the residents.
The new plan divides the paying pf
assessments into two parts, one for
the street work or the extension Of
Smith street. from King to Queen
street, and the other for paving The
latter, according to George Collins,
city engineer. remains as formerly
worked out, but the former has been
divided into three zones so that the
assessments will be graduated. The
first zone is from Queen street to half
way between King and Hotel streets
and the property holders along this
stretch will pay the largest assess
ment The second zone is from half
way between King ind Hotel streets
to half way between Hotel and Pauahi
streets and the third zone from the
latter point TO Beretapia street
If the board approves this plan the
protest will be withdrawn and the
work go ahead without further delays.
