Mort Horton and George Brady
are in camp to start work again
at the Rex mine. which is owned
by Horton brothers of Battle Noun
tain. The Rex mine has produced
100000 above the 200-foot level.
Until November of last year the mine
and mill we're leased to Howell and
Lille, who operated the mill on GUS
tom pres.
A number of leases and smaller
smaller properties are preparing
to haul ore to the custom mill.
Frank Gillian and RUDE Brown
have a lot ready; the Reaves
lease on the Colorado Grande No. 1
is ready for the teams; Randall has
completed a road to his mine up
the canyon and will start to bring
ore out. The Missing Link, which
lies south of the Rex, has a large
tonnage, some Of which will be
sent to the mill and some shipped
: the smclters.
lHc HuIlSS are III TIE uOTtH dHu
in the west part of the district.
The Esmeralda is in the south and
is equipped with a mill but is idle
at present. In the extreme east
ern part of the district is the East
ern Star mine which has produced
some very rich ore. The Eastern
Star is developed to a depth Of
go feet and has a large vein of
mill ore which contains seams of
high grade. John E. Pelton, who
developed the National mine, is the
chief owner of Eastern Star, and the
Remnants, bankers and merchants
Of Winnemucca, and Golconda, are
heavily interested, Eward Reinhart
being president of the company.
The mine contains about 10000 tons
of ore above the 240-foot level
and it is expected that the company
will construct a mill this year.,
The ores of the Elko Prince and
Eastern Star are similar, the values
being found in a banded quartz
containing seams of silver sui
phide, which frequently show free
gold. While silver is present in all
the ores of the district, gold forms
about go per cent of the values.
The veins are assures in rhyolite
in which all the rich gold mines in
Nevada have been found.

RICH STRIKE MADE
IN BATtMAN CANYON
DISTRICT Is REPORTED TO CON-
TAIN PROMISE OF BIG
PRODUCERS

Charles Hawkinson n of the To-
Gators in mining property in Bate
nan canyon near Hilltop, was in
Austin Monday on his way home
from Phonolita where he had been
on mining business.
Mr.. Hawkinson stated that the
original strike and location of prom
Using property in Bateman canyon
had been made by Jack McGOvern
but that the news Of the discov-
cry had been kept quiet until now.
He showed some as pretty samples
of ore as ever anne from a silver
mine and says the new discovery
is a ledge three feet in width with
20 inches that will go into the sacks
for shipping from the start. Nc
Of so feet and has. been taking out
pay rock ever since.
Many locations were made follow
ing the news of the strike by Nc
Govern, among which were the
locations of Hawkinson, who will
at once proceed with the develop
ment of his property.
OF Phonolite Mr.. Hawkinson said
that the work of Bruner OF the
Silent Friend and other properties
owned by his associates vas prov
ing a most promising property with
gold ore coming to the surface
regularly in quantity to justify all
the plans of the company for the
early installment of a milling plant
to treat the ore on the ground.
Hawkinson is a seasoned and
hardened Nevada prcspector. He
spent three years in J~arbidge, a camp
that he swears by and which he
believes will have a permanent place
in the development and history of
Nevada mining. OF the future of
Hilltop, he is equally sanguine and
sees dollars in the new strike at
Bateman canyon which is but a
mile and a half away, renewed con-
firmation of his faith in the min

GOLD CIRCLE PROPERTIES ARE
MAKING SUBSTANTIAL OUTPUT

Describing conditions in the Gold
Circle district, in Elko county, the
Midas correspondent to the Elko
Free Press says:
Three months operation of the
Dorr cyninide plant at the Elko
Prince mine has demonstrated the
complete success of the process on
Gold Circle ores with a bullion
production of $245,000. When the
mill was started up in December
1t was found that additional equip
ment was necessary for successful
operation. The frst months run
with the new equipment resulted
in bullion production of $4,000,
and the next two months each
produced $4,000. The last run
weighed 1900 pounds, and there
were eight and a half tons of bull
lion, principally gold, but with a
large amount of silver.
The Elko Prince mine is distin-
guisher by the high average grade
OF it's ores. The report of Horace
V. Winchell, made in 1913 when
the mine was bonded to the William
@. Rant Syndicate of New York
gave ore reserves of 23,5S3 tons
averaging $48.97 per ton, a total
gross value of ~$1,16S,124. The
estimated net value was placed at
$929,594. Mr.. Winchell reported
the ore-shoot containing this ton
mage to have been developed for
a length of 600 feet, with an average
width of twelve inches.
The report refers to another
ore-shoot in the north workings,
which apparently just reaches the
horizon cut by the main tunnel
level, 800 feet from the surface,
which was not prospected, and a
vein lying to the west which show
ed values on the surface.
This vein which outcrops on the
June Bell claim, has since devel-
oped a fine oreshoot under lease to
Paul Ehlers and w. j. Bowman,
who are sending 120 tons to the
company's mill. The company is
now driving a cross-cut to the June
Bell vein on the 800 foot level,
which gives entrance to the mill
ore bins. The distance to be
driven is 400 feet and this work will
prospect the intervening groun.

TUNGSTEN IS USED
As LEGAL TENDER
PEOPLE OF ATOLIA SAID TO
EMPLOY METAL AS BUYING
MEDIUM

F. S. Paul, who is conducting
mining operations in the Copper
basin district, returned last week
from an extended trip to California
points. During his journey he WIS.,
tied the tungsten mines at Atolia in
Mohave county and saw much there
to interest him. This camp is the
scene of California's biggest tung-
stem boom and resulted from the
discovery that a large dump of one
of the big gold mines of the dis
trict contained a considerable pro-
portion of tungsten. Further
search disclosed great quantities
of the mineral In the abandoned
mine workings as well as in the
surrounding properties and dumps.
Mr.. Paul states that estimates of
the tungsten content of the dumps
alone of this district run up to
$2O,OOO.0OO at prevailing prices for
tIngstic acid.
One novel feature of life at
Atolia noted by Mr.. Paul was the
fact that tungsten was recognized
as money current with the mer-
chant and the leasers and bust
ness houses were provided with
scales tn facilitate the purchase OF
different commodities settlement
for which is made in tungsten at
so much per pound, depending upon
the ruling quotations for the miner

appears to be running into the

1t is a mighty poor specimen OF
Democrat who is not willing to do
all he can, honorably, by voting and
otherwise, to help give Congressman
Sims rousing majority in the No
vember election, over Mr.. L. M.
Rhodes or whomsoever may make
the race on the Republican ticket.
Mr.. Sims has an unbroken record of
twenty years as Congressman who
championed the cause of the farm
ers and all other laborers and now
to pick UP a man because he has
been a Farmers Union worker and
tell any man that he ought to vote
against Mr.. Sims on that account is
nothing short of ridiculous. If Mr..
Rhodes makds the race, he will be
bound to do so on the Republican
protection" idea, which never did
protect the farmer and we guess
that the speeches Of the national
President, Mr.. Barrett will furnish
ample evidence to that effect.

protects him in his wealth." The
criticism Of Mr.. Ford for having the
rule that those Of his employees who
we're called away to do military
service, would have to come back
on the same footing with any other
applicant, seems rather harsh, for
while he has been exceedingly lib

run 1t in the way that may suit

Many new names were added

The number enrolled is the larg-

thirteen graduates Of last year,
twelve will be in college next year.

In spite of the high cost of living
we yet have several splendid places
for students at $3.50 per month.
All the teachers say, We never
had a better beginning than the
present.
1t has been pointed out by the

rule boys and girls that leave home
to 90 elsewhere to school before they
finish at home are those who fail to
keep up with their class at home.
There was a large attendance last

to muster a vote of $4,000, went
