The Nevada state tax commission
has announced that the taxpayers
of the state are to benefit by a grad
ual increase of the valuations or
the taxable property and that the
rate of taxation will automatically
be lowered. The announcement
con es as a result of the recent meet

which the data. derived from the
recent visit of the inspector to

were presented. The state law re
auires that all property be assessed
at full cash value and the as

NARICOPA NINE Al
AUSTIN TO BE WORKED

The resumption of operations on
the property of the Maricopa Mines
company, north of Austin, is n OF
the promises of early spring for
that section. The property lies
along the north contact of the Aus
tin mineral belt and includes claims
that have been rich producers in the
past. Extensive mining work was
done on the property a few years
age under the management of f.
Judd. A first class power plant
and compressors still stand ready
for the new work.
Earl G. Hill, who has been the
local representative of the COM
papy since operations closed, stated
to the Reveille this week: "The re-
Organization plans of the Maricopa
company are working out satisfac-
torily and it rs quite certain that
TIE renewal OF work on the proper
ty will be resumed early in III

GOLOf|ELD MEN
LOST ON DESERT
NARROWED WITHOUT WA
TER IN LAKE BED

Word was received Saturday
afternoon from the party of gold
seekers, composed of State Senator
Emory Arnold, Neil Bertrandis,
Charles Taylor of Tonopah, Bert
Turner and Fred Shorty of Barstow,
who departed from here Tuesday
morning in Tayior's car for a trip
of inspection to the new gold
strike, 80 miles north of Barsto' E.
The men telegraphed that they had
been lost on the desert and narrow
ly escaped death. The dispatch
stated that they had arrived at
Silver Lake an would proceed to
Barstow the next day.
The cause of their confusion and
trouble was a determination to
travel by another route than the
Bishop-Big Pine highway. and to
proceed by way of Beatty, Silver
Lake and Ludlow. The recent
heavy SHOWS have made this road
impossible. and when the party ar
rived at Silver Lake they found the
lake bed very wet. They were
eoced to make a detour to the north
and west. over what is known as the
Cave Springs road, impossible at
almost any time of the year.
When they arrived at the springs
and found the camp deserted, not
knowing the road to Barstow, they
hit across the desert in the general
direction they thought would lead
them to their destination. The par
ty travelled in a circle and arrived
at Silver Lake again. This time they
decided to attempt to cross the
lake despite the high water. All
went we'll until the machine was on,
in the lake, several miles from dry
land, when the engine went dead.
They were m%arooned, with water
everywhere but not a drop OF
liquid to drink, as the water is
saline and extremely brackish. The
latest reports state that the party
arrived safely in Barstow after
many other narrowing experiences.

GROOM MINES
SHIPPING ORE

During the past month the ore
shipped from the Groom lead
mines has Eeen quite uniform IN
quality, running 60 per cent lead
and nearly % ounces in silver to
the ton. These are the principal
itoms, though copper is coming i'll
as depth is attained. February S
sh.rment reached three cars and all
came frCm the 100-foot level. With
present prices of metals, the ore
average about SOS a ton and is so
well balanced that with the credits
allowed by the smelters for other
contents than lead and silver, the
cost of smelling is reduced to 81
cents a ton.
The work of cleaning out the
main shaft below the 100-foot level
is going on. Its original depth
WIS 1876 feet. Part of this when
cleared will be used as a sump to
collect water for jigging purposes
as large quantities of ore are
found which will not pay to ship
straight as taken from the mina.

LTSSEES ARE WORKING
EMPIRE NEVADA NINE

Dan Pennington was in town sun
day and reported a bright future
!of tAe Empire Nevada. This
property is being operated under
what is known as the Pennington,
Gallagher, Tulley and Miller lease,
say the Y%erington Times. Mr..
Pennington said they would ship two
cars of ore this week, and expect
soon, by sinking a shaft 100 feet
and prosecuting to open a shoot or
o.a hat will average 6 II to Z per

lease that is looming up on the
horizon is that of Oberg and Fla
her. Oberg was in town Wednes-
day and was very enthusiastic over
the future, expressing himself as
wei pleased with his success to

bang conservative. to which ne
lived up to saying he had some

would run IA or Is per cent.

producing camps. The Pepper ano
Keough mercury retort was put In

AT present the management IS

work of getting the ore from the
