 AT G. O. P. CONVENTION

Topeka, Kan, March 21--Twelve women delegates attended the Repub- 1ican state convention here today.
 Harmony was the keynote of the pre-convention gathering, although it was apparent a contest over the cleo ton of at least one of the four dele gates-at-1arge to the nationa1 conven- ton might develop. W. Y. Morgan, of Hutchinson, Charles F. Scott of lola, and Ali Williams of Columbus, were generally agreed upon. Joseph L. Brfstow, former United States Sena- tor, and former Governor Willis J.

the local geology of Hilltop
prompted a departure from the pre-
vious plan of deve!opment work un-
derground and a proved highly
satisfactory.

The Packard North Extension
Mining company has put another
shift in B Tunnel. With the two
shifts the progress of the main
working tunnel will be greatly in
creased. b tunnel is now in 293
feet. At 241 feet from the portal
a seven-foot vein was encountered,
winch is being drifted on both
ways from the tunnel. After going
a distance of 2S5 feet, a blue quartz
is coming in which is said indicates
the north and south vein whcih has
been disclosed on the surface.
The company has begun work in
tunnel A, running parallel with tuI-

row in 100 feet, and it is expected
that a distance of about $50 feet
that the blind vein encountered in
B tunnel at a distance of 241 feet
will be cut. The dip of the veia
may lead to a sooner discovery.

w. p. Ross, a mining man from
Pamlico, Mineral county. s;2nt Sat.
! day in Reno while returning 10
his properties from Los Angeles
where he spent the holidays vita
his mother.
Mr.. Ross has been operating IN
the Pamlico district for two years
and has been a resident of HaW-
thorne and nearby camps for the
past six years. When asked con-
corning the mining activities in the
Rand, Pamlico and Luckyboy dis
tricts, Mr.. Ross replied:
when | left for Los Angeles, the
district was looking better than at
any time for several years. Through
the efforts of several operators in
the district, Salt Lake City and east
ern capital has been induced to en-
ter the field and real mining work
will be begun there soon. j. IL.
Miller and associates have taken
over the Gold Pen nine at Rand and
when they commence active opera
lions there, as is expected, Mineral
county will see a great revival in
mining.
The placer properties at Pam
lico, with the exception of my own
properties, have not been worked
for some time, but l understand
large interests have been induced to
come in there and will work the
mines.

mentioned expressed the belief that
important discoveries would be made
here upon reaching the point of con-
tact between these assures in the
shale and the underlying alaskite or
granite.
Estimates of the production for
December are not yet available, but
there is reason to believe they VIII
show an output and realization con-
siderably larger than in November,
when earnings were cut down owing
to the necessity for handling a large
tonnage of low-grade material. Ship
NETS haze been going to the sampler
lately at the rate of considerably
over 100 tons daily and the mine
assays indicate an excellent aver
age in the value of the product
shipped. With the completion Of
the Velvet shaft the hosting capac-
ity of the mine will be doubled and
important economies in operation
will be rendered possible.
On the third or S00-foot level
of the old main workings, opened
from the Paloverde shaft, a cross
cut is being driven to connect with
one that is being driven northwest
from the eve workings in ore, ~.
the shale contact, above the rich
524 drift. A large tonnage of high
grade ore has been placed in sight
in this territory and with the cross
cuts connected on this level the
work of extracting ore from this
ground will be greatly facilitated.
Two Slopes at this point, the 541
and SAC, continue to show wide
faces of ore yielding assays from
500 to $3.50 per ton.
In the eastern part of the Velvet
claim the work of exploring the
shale contact ore-channel is open
ing up orebodies of great magni-
tude and of bonanza value The
555-A raise, driven from the G55
drift and following the contour of
the shale, reached a point where
the shale flattened and is again
progressing as a drift, toward the
eastern end of the 535 drift.
Throughout it's length, both as DRIFT
and raise, it has continued in ere
of high grade. the face assaying at
times as high as $3.50 per ton. The
new vein, opened by the cross-cnt
on the third level, has yielded as
says of 500 per ton and will be
explored when the connection is
made here.

The company pumping plant, locat-
ed near the Humboldt river, a dis
lance of two miles away.
The water is raised to an elevation
of 1920 feet through a three-incn
pipe line, the pumping plant being
operated by a 15-horsepower gaso-
line engine, which is GONG the work
satisfactorily. However, this plant
is only a temporary one, installed
so that water can be had at the
millsite for general purposes and the
mixing of concrete for the founda-
tions of the new milling plant and
other equipment which the company
is installing.
In a short time connection will
be made with the Winnemucca Wa
ter & Light company's plant when
the pump will be run by electricity.
This power line is to be construct
ed at once and two carloads of
poles have arrived for it's construc-
lion. After connecting the pump
ing plant, the transmission line will
be constructed to the site of the
mill and mine where all the ma
chinery and hosting equipment will
be operated by electric power.
The large house built for the liv-
ing quarters for the men is COM
pleted and is ready for occupation.
The building is divided into IA
sleeping rooms and a large reading
and lounging room, together with
shower bath. Another building COM
prises the cook house and large din

Another building under construc-
ton is for the compressors, hoist

A 50-foot gallows frame is on
the ground ready to be installed.
One of the Chicago pneumatic oil

LINCOLN PRONOUNCED
PROMISING DISTRICT
CAMP NEAR WONDER SAID TO
HAVE SOME GOOD ORE
DEPOSITS

The full organization of the Ne
vada Lincoln Mining company was
completed in the city of Reno recent
ly. The company owns five full
mining claims and owes no debts.
This property is located at Lin
coin Churchill county, about II
miles in an easterly direction from
the Nevada Wonder mine at Won
der and about one mile off the main
Lincoln highway road leading from
Fallon to Austin, situated n the
low foothills of the Desatora range
of mountains.
The camp of Lincoln was discoy-
cred last June by Murray Scott and
Fank Wilson, two of the best known
state, and they have worked vigor-
ously themselves with a force of
from four to six miners all summer
exploring and opening up the veins;
and have exposed quite a large tom
mage of a good commercial grade
of ore. The development work con-
sists of numerous open cuts and
shallow shafts sunk on the vein aud
one tunnel drove in a distance OF
257 feet, which should cut the first
vein in about 100 feet more. at a
vertical depth of approximately $50
feet. There are two distinct veins
known to traverse through the COM
pany's property. While all of tee
development work so far has been
done on what is called the front
vein, this vein has been opened up
for a distance of 400 feet or
in length, on the surface, and shows
to be from five to eight feet in
width. Thirty samples taken from
various places along the vein give
assay returns of from IS to $50 in
gold and silver, or an average value
of 5000 per ton. The values pre-
dominate about 35 per cent in gold
and SIS per cent in silver.
The ore in character is of a grey
and blush quartz, streaked with
black silver sulphide, and shows
some ruby silver and free gold. The
general formation is a rhyolite and
an andisite with porphyry intru-
sions.
The general course of the veins is
southeast and northwest and as far
as can be determined from the pres
ent development work, they have a
dip of about 40 degrees to the
northeast.
The general condition and charac-
ter of ore and formation is very
similar, if not identical, with those
of the Nevada Wonder mine at Won
der.
There is an abundance of water
and timber within n mile and a
half fer all mining and milling pur-
roses. 1t is the .company's inten-
ton to carry on a conservative line
of development work this winter.
and equip the property with a mill
